Potential trade setup: GBP/USD analysisPrice has approached the key daily barrier of 1.27500. If today's candle can close as a spinning top/ Doji we can anticipate a potential short to the psych zone of 1.26000 in confluence with 61.8% fib level, to form a right shoulder before the sterling extends higher.
Techinical
Potential Inverted H&S Pattern As we observe this pair on the 4h time frame, it continues to make LH's and it broke the 1.60100 level, which happens to be the previous resistance level. As it pivots back down, I definitely want to see how it test this "shoulder level" or ascending trend line for a better confirmation for a buy
dejavuIt's all a cycle, learn it and you shall be rewarded.
Always have a plan, entry - exit - stop - profit
never go without it
or you are just gambling
better yet just put your money in a blender and see if it'll multiply it for you
Hope this chart can clarify a few things, if you have questions ask.
Good luck, happy trading.
ETH to reach new All time highs?Hello Guys
ETHUSD had a rally in the previous days then had a normal retracement.
Current price action is showing an bounce up from the 100EMA adn 200EMA (Extremely Important levels) which is giving us a nice entry.
I really like the pattern formed with the retracement. If ETHUSD can reach our entry level then is a trade for us.
This new rally that could start can bring us to the a new ATH with no doubt.
Let's try to buy the dip when our price reaches our entry point
Don't forget to take some profits while reaching different targets. Once you reach T1, don't allow the trade to be a loser one and move your stop loss to Breakeven.
PS: As you may know, no matter how good your technical analysis is, anything can happen in the markets so the only way you can do is to control your risk by keeping tight stop losses
What do I need to trade Cryptos?COINBASE:BTCUSD
If you doubt about techinical analysis, (thousands of traders trade on technicals, so it works)
Basically what I have found most useful as technical analysis during my trading career are the following factors:
Trendlines, Pivots , EMAs, (Trend, Support and Resistance)
Momentum
and basic chart patterns (Bull flag, Bear Flag) to define an accurate entry and exit point
I have tried thousand of Indicators, complex patterns and everything trying to find the Holy grail or even something near but as you would guess, I failed. The only thing that have worked for me has been these factors metioned above
What about other indicators? As you may know, all other indicators are always delayed and need the price to move in order to react, by that time, it is too late to take the trade.
As per my opinion, you don't need anything else but basic Trendlines , Pivots and in my case EMAs to succeed in your trading career (some other uses SMA instead of EMAs which is also ok).
This does not only apply for Cyrptocurrencies but for any other Techinical analysis (Stocks, futures, Forex)
A part from that, Money management is extremely importan, maybe you have heard it, at least 1:2 Risk/Reward Ratio. YOU MUST BE OBSESSED minimizing Risk!
You only need basic techinicals (those obvious entry and exit points where everybody will buy or everybody will sell) and a good money management

OMGBTC: We are waiting to buyWait for a break out before buying. If it breaks down, then we will look for a decline to the 61.8 fibs level along with a double bottom to buy. If price breaks up, we will buy it up to the 1.414 fibs extension level and monitor if it will continue climbing.
Trade with care.

I don't anticipate too much more downside for Litecoin (LTCUSD) before we head back up, but if we do head lower, we'll go all the way down to $41.50. Below that $37.30. If per chance, we somehow find ourselves down in these areas, we will find further support from our 50 MA, the Lower Bollinger, and the bottom of our channel (lower green trendline) which should be intersecting with our flat line supports in the next two weeks.
I do not think we'll get this low and I'm 90% certain Litecoin will not break out of/lower than our green channel.
I'm swinging this to an upside target of at least $60, maybe more, depending on price/time/pattern points at that time.
Happy trading folks!
