SasanSeifi 💁♂️ETH/USDT 👉1D 🔻 1570$/ 1446$ After correcting 15% from the price range of 1900, now the price is trading in the range of 1737. In the long term, the possibility of further price correction can be considered.
Considering the failure of the 1740 price support range, in my opinion, the price will face further correction from the important resistance areas of 1790 and 1842 after the pullback and liquidity collection if selling is confirmed
In case of a positive fluctuation, to better understand the continuation of the trend, We have to see how the price will react to the resistance ranges.
Otherwise, if the price is above the stabilization resistance range, it may be associated with further growth.
Possible trends are identified.

Learn THE BEST Breakout Trading Strategy
Hey traders,
Breakout trading is one of the most popular trading strategies.
Being quite simple in theory, it remains quite complex and complicated in practice.
In this post, we will discuss 7 steps every breakout trader must follow.
💬And just in brief about a breakout trading itself:
this method aims to spot a key level (it might be horizontal support/resistance or a trend line) and then to trade its occasional breakout, assuming that it will trigger an impulsive move.
1️⃣No surprise, the first task of a breakout trader is the identification of key levels. Preferably, these levels should be spotted on weekly/daily time frames.
Here on US100, I executed structure analysis and identified key levels.
2️⃣Once key levels are spotted, a breakout trader should patiently wait for the test of one of those. His goal is to wait for a breakout.
In that step, many traders fail. The problem is that in order to confirm the breakout, one should have strict & reliable rules to follow. The rules that describe a confirmed breakout.
*I apply the following rule: the breakout of a level will be considered to be confirmed once the candle closes above/below the structure on the highest time frame where the structure is recognizable.
In the picture above, we see a confirmed key level breakout.
3️⃣Once the breakout is confirmed, the next step is to wait for a retest of a broken level. Why retest? Simply because a retest gives a better risk to reward ratio for the trade. And even though there is no guarantee that the price will retest the broken level and because of that some trading opportunities will be missed, in the long run, retest trading produces higher gains.
Following our example, the price has retested the broken level.
4️⃣Opening a trade on a retest, one should know the exact target levels. The levels where the profits will be taken. Again, newbies traders make a lot of mistakes on that step. Remember that your targets must be realistic, they must be based on closest strong structure levels, not on your desired returns.
5️⃣Also, a breakout trader should set a stop loss. And again, a stop-loss level must be safe, it must be set at least below/above a previous minor structure to protect you from stop-hunting.
Stop-loss reflects the point where the trader becomes wrong in his predictions and where the trading setup becomes invalid.
In our example, the safest stop loss will be below a local low. Take profit - next key resistance.
6️⃣Once the trading position is opened and stop-loss & take-profit are set, one should patiently wait. There is no guarantee that the price will start falling/growing sharply after the breakout. The market may start coiling for quite a long period of time before it starts acting.
Breakout trader must be patient, not allowing his emotions to intervene.
Returning to our example, after some time, the market easily reached the TP level and went much higher.
7️⃣Lastly, one should remember that his exit points are stop-loss/take-profit levels. Stop-loss adjustment in case of a position drawdown, preliminary profit-taking, and target extension are your worst enemies. Be disciplined, don't be greedy, and keep your emotions in check.
Here is the example of a breakout trade that I took following the strategy:
I spotted a confirmed breakout of a key resistance. The price formed a high momentum bullish candle and closed above the structure.
Long position was opened on a retest.
Target was based on the closest horizontal resistance.
Stop loss was placed below the closest horizontal support.
The market quickly reached the target.
Of course, this 7-steps trading plan is not sufficient enough for profitable breakout trading. There are so many nuances on each step of the plan to consider.
However, let this plan be your initial guideline: learn & follow that and with time, keep elaborating its rules until you become a consistently profitable trader.

XAUUSD short idea (Trend-line break)XAUUSD has broken and rejected the long term uptrend but it is still holding structure at 1928.56-1938.53. After getting a weekly and daily close below here, watch for a break and hold/retest on the smaller timeframes. Use the downtrend channel for staying in the trade and trading the trend. Wait for a pullback into structure and into the downtrend channel, enter at the reject for the next move down. Remember the trend in is your friend, patience and confirmation is key.
Note: It’s still slightly in a range and being that it’s sitting at the bottom of the range it could easily make its way back up. Pay attention to structure on the smaller time frames.
Targets:
-1870.73, 1857.17, 1809.71, and possibly 1748.70. Look to trade bounces at the target areas.
Exit strategies:
-Break and hold back above structure at 1928.56-1938.53
-Above new down trend line w/ a CHOCH
-STOP above 1980.58
NZDUSD - Breakout Of A Range?Analysis:
From the charts we can clearly see that price was stuck in a range until recently where we saw a breakout to the downside signalling to us that there is downwards momentum. With this bias we're only looking for shorts on this pair. Price has since returned to our area of interested, giving us the opportunity to look for shorts from this area. Why this area? Well for added confluence we also have the 50% fib retracement level which has been tagged and which we expect to hold and for sellers to continue to push price down further. Our second added confluence that we have is the downwards trendline that is clearly present on the chart. We expect that this trendline will be respected meaning that price will head to the downside. When we look at the fundamentals these also go in our favour. The USD is stronger then the NZD with the USD being the 2nd strongest major currency compared to the NZD which is the 4th strongest major currency so this helps our idea. For more confidence in this setup the NZD had an increase in short positions meaning that more institutions are starting to short the NZD. Now institutions have access to a lot more data then we do so there must be a reason why they are starting to short the NZD whereas we actually see an increase in both long and short positions on the USD. Although this isn't a positive it also isn't a negative as there are still institutions entering long positions on the USD. With all of the data we have access to and taking a look at the technicals and the fundamentals we are bearish on this pair!
