How to Profit from Trend Exhaustion - XAGUSDHow much ... and when? What else is there to know? Enjoy this multi-timeframe tour of the XAGUSD chart to learn how I find MAJOR reversals and targets BEFORE price action reaches them. As always, I strive to produce charts that speak for themselves, and yet this is my video debut here on Tradingview, and I could not be more pleased to narrate this unusual experience. If you enjoy it or, better yet, if you learn from it, then consider this a preview of forthcoming weekday morning livestreams, which I hope you will follow. Until then, be liquid!
Finding support and resistance zonesSupport and resistance levels are key concepts in technical analysis, which is a method of forecasting the direction of prices through the study of past market data, including price and volume. These levels are considered to be key points at which the price of a security is likely to either find support and be unable to fall further, or encounter resistance and be unable to rise further.
Support and resistance levels are often based on historical data and the past behavior of market participants. For example, if a stock has consistently found support at a certain price level in the past, technical analysts would consider that level to be a key support level. Similarly, if a stock has consistently encountered resistance at a certain price level, that level would be considered a key resistance level.
Support and resistance levels can be identified by looking at a stock's price chart, which plots the price of the stock over time. When the price of a stock is trending upwards, the support levels are typically found below the current price, and the resistance levels are found above the current price. Conversely, when the price of a stock is trending downwards, the support levels are typically found above the current price, and the resistance levels are found below the current price.
Traders and investors often use support and resistance levels to make buy and sell decisions. For example, if a stock is approaching a key support level, an investor might consider buying the stock in anticipation that it will find support at that level and be unable to fall further. Similarly, if a stock is approaching a key resistance level, an investor might consider selling the stock in anticipation that it will encounter resistance at that level and be unable to rise further.
Because the stock market operates on a schedule, with trading taking place during specific hours of the day, it is natural for support and resistance levels to also be centered around certain times of the day. For example, if a stock has consistently found support at a certain price level during the early morning hours, that level would be considered a key support level during that time of day.
In conclusion, support and resistance levels are key levels at which the price of a security is likely to either find support and be unable to fall further, or encounter resistance and be unable to rise further. These levels are often based on historical data and the past behavior of market participants, and are commonly used by traders and investors to make buy and sell decisions. Because the stock market operates on a schedule, support and resistance levels are often centered around certain times of the day.
The Element of Time - The Most Underrate Technical Analysis ToolMarket timing is an essential tool whether you're a day-trader, portfolio manager and/or long-term investor. I present to you the most underrated technical analysis tool in the space of retail trading. The purpose of this short educational webinar is to open your eyes to something you don't hear about abundantly because it is the most disregarded aspect of trading in my opinion.
As an intraday trader, my main focus is on the speculation of "the next daily candle". However, I first analyze and project on "the next weekly candle". Each weekly candle is broken into 5 individual daily candles, and each daily candle is broken down into 3 main market sessions - namely, Asia, London & New York Session.
You'll find that my main focus in this lesson is on the day in which you find a lower / upper wick being created on the weekly candle. More often than not, "Tuesday" typically forms the low of a bullish weekly candle, and the high of a bearish weekly candle.
Watch the lesson entirely, take notes, but most importantly, let it open up the opportunity for you to exponentially elevate your trading skillset.
I Was Right...But At The Wrong TIME! - 05/14/20 RECAPHi traders,
What a day! I took a record of 7 trades (my average is about 3) and all of them were beautiful setups. But most of the time the market went immediately against me and pushed the stocks I traded the other way!
Key point here is not to give in and blame the market - it doesn't care at all and you can't sue it :D
Reduce the size so you don't exceed your maximal daily loss but stay in the game if you are mentally in a good state (for beginners I'd suggest switching to DEMO after 2 consecutive losses, though!).
Yes, being down for the week again sucks, but thanks to good risk management it's just over 1 percent - a single winning trade away from turning green. This is why RM is your priority. It's much harder, if not almost impossible digging yourself up from 10, 20 or 30% Drawdown
My Trades:
1) CODX - LONG @28.39, -0.95%
2) Z - LONG @46.53, +1.18%
3) MRNA - SHORT @61.95, -0.75%
4) AMD - LONG @53.03, -0.93%
5) UNFI - SHORT @18.89, -0.04%
6) DDOG - SHORT @62.78, -1.08%
7) SYF - LONG @17.02, -0.65%
*In my ID trades, I risk 1% of the account per trade and go for 2% (2:1 RRR ). Sometimes I adapt a little bit as you can see in the trades' description.*
Total PnL for the day: -3.22%
Total PnL for the week: -1.37%
Good trades,
