🇪🇺🇨🇦 EURCAD two out of three 100 pips secured. Hello traders
Before I log of for the day I just thought this would be a good opportunity to show how I've traded this pair over last 5 days.
Crucial bit here however is I haven't carried out a single minute analysing the chart for this pair in any form over those 5 days!!
Our strategy has simply allowed me this luxury of not having to analyse and judge where to enter and where to exit said trade.
Our strategy does that for you and even prints all the required trade information next to the trade alert.
I've had no emotions affecting my mind in any of this. I am simply following the trades as they present on the chart! That's how easy this is.
The above isn't strictly true it's been even easier! As our strategy can be automated.
Checking my open and closed trades is when I spotted EURCAD trades had closed in good profit.
This the first bit of chart time spent this week on the pair in question and that's me writing this idea.
What strategy am I using here?
Our strategy is a trend follow strategy.
The strategy is 5 individual strategies combined into one. The trade is only valid when all 5 confluences line up.
At this point a trade is presented on the charts with all the necessary information printed at the side of the alert.
You then take this trade manually or you can automate the strategy and let it all be done automatically.
Also with having an ATR based Stop Loss & Take Profit, you'll know where and how your closing your trade every time - without having to think about it.
The strategy works on any time frame and instrument and can be set to how you wish to trade.
How can we be so sure on the manner we are trading works?
Quiet simply by the strategy having a built in back tester.
The Strategy can be set to your desired way of trading. Then immediate back test data will show if that method is profitable or not.
Back test data is all we have to go on as traders and this level of data is crucial in building a trading plan.
The back test results gives our traders a proven trading edge and confidence to then execute the trades on the markets.
I know this pair was profitable all last year and the data for the pair can be found at bottom of the page.
However the data provided in this idea is slightly different to my previous ideas as I've shown the data for the year so far.
Stats are based on trading £5000 capital risking 2% per trade. We have a 21% ROI in the first 7 weeks of 2021!!
Trading should be about freedom and no emotional strain. It 100% shouldn't be about excess chart time analysing for the next day!
I'm off to enjoy a nice cool bottle of beer now. If you fancy that instead of still being stuck to the chart drop me a message and lets see if we can help you.
Thanks for looking at the idea.

Understand that the immediate swing consists of strong bearish momentum which may break this support area @1.20800.
Be patient and wait.

CountOnCrypto - Ethereum Forecast - 10/02/2021I posted an Ethereum chart on the 7th of February and I was able to accurately trade several long positions throughout the duration of the past few days using Fibonacci levels as an idea of support, resistance and entry/ exit.
I believe that COINBASE:ETHUSD will retrace and find support on one of the lower red trendlines unless we continue and break upwards through the dotted Fibonacci retracement line drawn from the top at $1848.
It's all well and good if we break to the upside and go straight to 2k but I have to consider all scenarios that are reasonable!
On the previous idea, we retraced to the .786 Fibonacci level around $1717 yesterday before returning to the upside. I think it is unlikely the exact same scenario will play out and given the stochastics in the short term have started to cool off I believe that the same should follow for the other indicators on higher timeframes before we reach our desired $2000+ Ethereum.
Retracements are healthy as I always say, they provide market liquidity which is essential for a healthy market! I think it is more than likely this time round we will break that .786 Fibonacci retracement level and if we find support on a Fibonacci level between now and my lower red trendlines it would give me more bullish sentiment.
There is also a heavy downside risk if Bitcoin dumped then Ethereum would follow so we need to be extremely cautious about how we play this.
As a trader, I will sit back and wait for the best opportunity to appear; going headfirst into a position now seems overly risky for the risk to reward ratio.
Thanks for following me and interacting with my ideas, I hope the market is good for you, remember to use risk management when trading; always do your own research and never risk any of your hard-earned money on the market before educating yourself on the risk!
How To Play The Markets To The DownsideI’m Markus Heitkoetter and I’ve been an active trader for over 20 years.
I often see people who start trading and expect their accounts to explode, based on promises and hype they see in ads and e-mails.
They start trading and realize it doesn’t work this way.
The purpose of these articles is to show you the trading strategies and tools that I personally use to trade my own account so that you can grow your own account systematically.
Real money…real trades.
How can you make money in a market that is going down? Today I want to show you two strategies on how to do this.
Shorting A Stock
The first strategy is shorting a stock. So what does this mean and how does it work?
Well, it means that you can sell a stock right now even if you don’t own it, and then buy it back later at a cheaper price.
This is how it works. So first there is your broker, then there’s you who wants to participate and make money in a falling market.
Let’s use Apple AAPL as an example.
Let us pretend AAPL is currently trading at $119 & we believe that AAPL actually might go down again to $110.
You can make money betting against AAPL in a falling market, and here’s how it works.
Now, you want to sell AAPL but you don’t have the shares just yet. So what you would do is you borrow shares from your broker.
So your broker is actually lending you 100 shares of Apple, or at least, we’ll use 100 shares for this example.
Now, the price at this point doesn’t matter. He’s just giving you the shares and says,
“OK, you need to give me back these shares later on.”
And he is actually reserving some money from your trading account to make sure that you really give it back to him.
Now, you have 100 shares, and you can do with these 100 shares pretty much whatever you want.
So in this example, you would sell them. So you sell AAPL , 100 shares of them, at the current price of $119 because you believe that AAPL will go down.
So how exactly do you make money?
Let’s say after a few days, AAPL , in fact, does drop down to $110.
Here’s what happens next. Now you are buying back AAPL at $110.
So how much money do you make? If you sold AAPL for $119 and you’re now buying it back at $110, you’re making $9 per share, multiplied by 100 shares.
This comes to $900 in profit.
Now that you have the shares back, you, of course, have to give them back to the broker.
Remember, the broker lent you the shares, so you have to give them back those 100 shares of AAPL , and when you do, the broker releases the money that they held, kind of in escrow, to make sure that you are getting the money back.
Now, the beautiful thing is this is all going on in the background.
This is what it would look like on a trading platform.
So now, I want to trade AAPL , and I want to just sell 100 shares of AAPL .
So all I do here is, it says already short minus 100 and I would sell them at the current price of $119.35. So I click review and send.
And the broker is requesting almost $6,000 from me. And this $6,000 is basically the money that he’s holding in escrow to say,
“All right, Markus, you have to give me back the shares.”
And it is that easy.
And now if I click on “Send Order,” I would sell the shares.
So this is the first way because I told you that I’ll give you two strategies of how to benefit from a falling market.
So this was strategy number one, shorting a stock.
Buying A Put Option
Now, let’s move on to strategy number two. You would buy a put option.
“Put” means that you have the right to sell a stock at the strike price.
So, again, we will be using the same example of AAPL that we used for the first strategy.
So as I just said, we’re pretending AAPL right now is trading at around $119 and we believe that AAPL will go down to $110.
This is how this would work.
So this is where we are looking at an AAPL put, let’s say here, AAPL put of 119, and it is trading at around $1.80.
So here is what exactly we would do.
We would buy a put for $1.80. Now, this put gives us the right to sell AAPL for $119.
Now, if AAPL really goes all the way down to $100, see same deal here, we actually would make $9 per stock.
However, we have to deduct the premium that we paid for the option, which is $1.80.
So this means here we are making $7.20 per share ($9 — $1.80).
If we would trade one option, one option controls 100 shares, so this means that we are making $720 total.
Which Strategy Should You Use?
Now, the main difference between these two strategies is that, for strategy number two buying a put, you don’t need as much money.
Remember when I went to my trading platform earlier and wanted to sell AAPL 100 shares, that my broker was reserving around $6,000 dollars in my account?
Now keep this in mind.
According to what my trading platform is telling me, if I want to buy this option, it would only cost me $180. So as you can see, huge difference.
In the one case, the broker is reserving $6,000 with the possibility of making $900.
For strategy two, buying a put, your broker is only requesting $180 and that is also the maximum amount that you can lose, and you can make possibly $720 here.
Summary
So this is how you can make money in a falling market.
Now, very important, strategy number one, where you’re just shorting the stock and where the broker is lending you the stock, you cannot do that in a retirement account.
But strategy number two, buying a put, you CAN do in a retirement account, and you can do this for any stock.
Now, you might actually be bullish on AAPL , but if you look at some other stocks right now that we're in a downtrend, for example, ZM , if you say,
“Oh my gosh, Zoom is crazy, during the pandemic here,”
it went from, what? $50 to $500? You could think,
“This is absolutely overvalued and I believe that Zoom will go down to $300”
you can use one of these strategies.
So you see that all these stocks that, during the pandemic benefited a lot, could actually move lower, this is how you can make money in a falling market.
So now you know two strategies how to make money in a falling market, how to bet on a stock that is going down.

EURJPY H4 - LONGEURJPY H4 - LONG
Strong push phase that broke the ascending trendline and now coming back for a potential retest onto the confluence zone.
Look for a depletion in bearish momentum and bullish price action at the confluence zone for a LONG position, with take profit target at previous high.
RSI Trendline StrategyHello, traders!
Last time we considered the topic about the technical indicator's types combinations to increase your profit. I promised you to show in details some strategy which applies combination of the indicators.
Let's consider the TREND + OSCILLATOR strategy which uses the EMA and RSI indicators.
First of all we should define the direction of a market trend. The price is above 200 EMA means that the market is in global uptrend. So, we are going to search bullish signs for RSI indicator.
Today we are going to use RSI in a non-standard way. We will search the RSI downtrend lines breakouts. You can see such line on the chart. When the RSI breaks through this line during the price is in the uptrend it is a buy signal. It is great to have another one confirmation. Here we can see that the price bounced off the 200 EMA and exactly after that there was a massive growth.
Why does it work? During the uptrend we often have the consolidation or correction phases. If the RSI is in the downtrend it means that the asset's oversold zone is upcoming, but the market is in the uptrend and bulls dominate. Thus, the money reaccumulates here and when the bear's activity become weak the bulls push the price above rapidly.
