Triangle

Profitable Triangle Trading Strategy Explained Descending triangle formation is a classic reversal pattern . It signifies the weakness of buyers in a bullish trend and bearish accumulation . In this article, I will teach you how to trade descending triangle pattern. I will explain how to identify the pattern properly and share my trading strategy. ⭐️ The pattern has a very peculiar price action structure : 1. Trading in a bullish trend, the price sets a higher high and retraces setting a higher low . 2. Then the market starts growing again but does not manage to set a new high, setting a lower high instead. 3. Then the price drops again perfectly respecting the level of the last higher low, setting an equal low . 4. After that, one more bullish movement and one more consequent lower high , bearish move, and equal low . Based on the last three highs , a trend line can be drawn. Based on the equal lows , a horizontal neckline is spotted. ❗What is peculiar about such price action is the fact that a set of lower highs signifies a weakening bullish momentum : fewer and fewer buyers are willing to buy from horizontal support based on equal lows. 🔔 Such price action is called a bearish accumulation . Once the pattern is formed it is still not a trend reversal signal though. Remember that the price may set many lower highs and equal lows within the pattern. The trigger that is applied to confirm a trend reversal is a bearish breakout of the neckline of the pattern. 📉Then a short position can be opened. For conservative trading, a retest entry is suggested. Safest stop is lying at least above the level of the last lower high. However, in case the levels of the lower highs are almost equal it is highly recommendable to set a stop loss above them all. 🎯For targets look for the closest strong structure support. Below, you can see the example of a descending triangle trade that I took on NZDCAD pair. After I spotted the formation of the pattern, I was patiently waiting for a breakout of its neckline. After a breakout, I set a sell limit order on a retest. Stop loss above the last lower high. TP - the closest key support. 90 pips of pure profit made. Learn to identify and trade descending triangle. It is one of the most accurate price action patterns every trader should know.

DOGE → The bulls are overcoming resistance. Trend change?BINANCE:DOGEUSDT is breaking trend resistance and on W1 the bulls have kept the price above the risk zone. Prospects are emerging for a possible rally.... The 0.1-0.05 area is the bottom of the market. Strong accumulation is forming in this area. The price left it back in the spring, but the recent retest showed that the bulls are not ready to let the price beyond 0.106, which generally determines the medium-term prospects. On D1, the price is breaking the trend resistance of the Wedge pattern, forming a small rally to 0.1437. If the bulls hold their positions and defenses above 0.126 - 0.1200, the market will retain its bullish phase, thus we can soon see a breakout of the local high with a subsequent rise to ATH Resistance levels: 0.1437, 0.1657 Support levels: 0.126, 0.12 There is no fundamental analysis, but technically there are good prospects. Various services are showing a spike in whale activity in DOGE, which could signal as increased interest. I expect a positive outcome from the bulls with a subsequent rally to the zones of interest Rate, share your opinion and questions, let's discuss what's going on with ★ DOGE ;) Regards R. Linda!

Stop-loss: Set a stop-loss below the neckline, around $2355. Target: Set a target based on the height of the inverse head and shoulders pattern, projected from the breakout point, potentially targeting $2400 or higher.

GOLD → False breakdown before the bullrun... ↑ FX:XAUUSD reacts perfectly to the 2390-2400 area, forming a false breakdown with subsequent growth to 2420, but I am now confused by the extremely low volatility.... The calm before the storm.... Gold is bullish on D1, while the dollar index is showing signs that the price may continue its decline in the medium term. Today at 13:45 GMT it is worth paying attention to the S&P PMI at 13:45 GMT and Hew Home Sales at 14:00. The data may revitalize the market, but we need to look at the actual numbers. Technically, gold has a bullish market on H1, but right now I am extremely confused by the very low volatility, which often leads to momentum to one side or the other. Based on the overall situation there is a chance to see a continuation of growth if the bulls hold their defenses above 2400-2405. Resistance levels: 2420, 2430, 2450 Support levels: 2405, 2400, 2392 The price is gradually updating the highs, forming clear support zones. A possible retest of the liquidity area before the subsequent bullrun to 2430-2450. It is not excluded that the price can break the structure and give a strong impulse down to 2370, but at the moment of market analysis there are no preconditions for it Rate, share your opinion and questions, let's discuss what's going on with ★GOLD ;) Regards R.

GBPUSD → False breakdown led to the beginning of correctionFX:GBPUSD forms a false breakdown of resistance, which leads to a change in the nature of market movement. At this time, the dollar temporarily changes course and moves to the correction phase. GBPUSD is globally bullish. After breaking through resistance on D1, the price moves into the correction phase, which was generally logical to expect. Ahead is the key area on H4 - 1.29 from which a rebound is possible. A reversal pattern is forming locally, but the probability of a trend change is low. In the medium term I expect a correction to 0.5-0.7 fibo with further reversal, but the long-term outlook is bullish. The reason for this movement is the unstable fundamental environment due to the presidential race in the U.S. as well as the politically dependent opinion of the Fed, as well as the forex market movements are beginning to be influenced by Trump's speeches.... Resistance levels: 1.2978 Support levels: 1.290, 1.286, 1.284 Technically, we should wait for a bounce from 1.29 by 10-20% from the current movement with the aim to continue the correction towards the mentioned support zone. Thursday's news supported the dollar, today the general fundamental background remains (no news). Rate, share your opinion and questions, let's discuss what's going on with ★ GBPUSD ;) Regards R.

4 potential shorter timeframe triangles on rep 1wk log chartMy previous chart idea which I will link to below showed the monthly timeframe logchart of the 2 potential larger triangles xrp has been consolidating in, so I wanted to also follow that up with a weekly chart timeframe of the the 4 potential smaller triangles we have also been consolidating in so I can eep track of their progress as well. All the potential measured move ines here have been randomly placed so of course where ever it does break upward will likely be slightly different and will only require I readjust those measured move lines slightly at that point only changing their price targets slightly. *not financial advice*

XRPUSD log chart’s triangle pattern on the 1 month chart.Always a chance price action could break above this triangle at any given moment but we can see that the apex of this triangle goes all the way not 2026, so it could also just continue to grind slowly idle ways as well. Hopefully a final ruling in the SEC Ripple case occurs soon and isn’t followed up by any kind of appeal so price action can finally get moving. I am simply posting this chart here so i can keep tabs on this pattern as time progresses. *not financial advice*

$3k eth a stealis 3k eth a steal? i would say buying around 3k has great risk reward especially after etf has been approved and if i goes under $3k even better! but we have 2 very important trendlines on the chart. resistance that goes from ath. and a support line that perfectly matches up from 2017 until now. we are currently in a symmetrical triangle and due to break by this winter. with volume decreasing has we get order the last quarter of triangle i think we are due for break up. a buy on this support line or long would be a great risk reward. trend is your friend on this one.

GOLD → False break of bullish range support ↑FX:XAUUSD is forming a false breakdown of the previously mentioned range - 2390 - 2400. The return to the buying zone is forming, buyers can push the price to 2450 A reversal swing pattern is forming in relation to the support, which is evidence of buyers' strength. The fundamental background is still unstable, there are many nuances from the Fed and the US presidential race, the geopolitical background in the Middle East and Eastern Europe is relatively stable. Today there is no news and in general we can bet on the work of technical analysis. Technically, if the bulls hold the defense above 2400-2405, then in the medium term we should expect an upward movement towards local liquidity zones as well as towards the upper boundary of the range. Resistance levels: 2405, 2412, 2420 Support levels: 2400, 2392 The market confirms the presence of the range, it is not excluded that the price may go down, but at the moment the situation looks like the bulls are actively defending the lower boundary of the range, which determines the short-term and medium-term prospects....

ETHEREUM → 4K Target. Waiting for SEC with ETH-ETF ↑BINANCE:ETHUSDT is ending the sell-off phase. Buyers have held a strong support area, forming an intermediate bottom. The liquidity capture led to a rebound, which can move into the phase of the uptrend continuation. Fundamentally, the main focus is on ETH-ETFs. Earlier traders were positive about the initial rumors of approval, now the important milestone is the admission of ETFs to trading, judging by the feedback and SEC sentiment, this could happen very soon (within 1-2 weeks) Technically, strong buyers appear in the 2800-2900 zone (judging by candlestick patterns and volume growth), restraining the market from falling and gaining momentum with the purpose of further strengthening (local price movement has a consolidation character). The trigger area for buyers is 3200. Accordingly, further final consolidation of the price above MA-200 and breakout of 3200 may become the reason for strengthening, the target of which may be 4000-4800. Resistance levels: 3200, 3357 Support levels: MA-200, 2868 Fundamentally, the situation is positive, traders are waiting for the news from SEC. Technically, on local timeframes there are prerequisites for a bullish mood, on D1 a rebound from strong support is forming. Accordingly, the overall tandem is signaling a possible further rise to 4K. Rate, share your opinion and questions, let's discuss what's going on with ♦︎ ETHEREUM ♦︎ ;) Regards R. Linda!

ETF on ETH how high will it go? Targets given based on BTC ETFsCompare what happened on BTC? – so true money flow – real $ actually put into it At the time mrkt cap 1.4 T July 24 – (numbers rounded up easy maths) BTC @ Market cap of 1T it was estimated that 300 Billion of real money was used to push the price to give a market cap of 1T. This is because the last price paid is applied across all BTCs to create a ‘market cap’ we assign to BTC Hence implies / assumes an uplift factor of say 3-4 for BTC for real money to move the price to achieve a market cap. We notice that the 17 B is no linear model – maybe somewhat explained as the supply of BTC is diminishing. Say in first half ie to-date 17 billion put into ETFs (5-6%) of total money ever put into BTC achieves this move of 90% increase in price (600B) (versus 17 x 3-4 = 51-68B) 17 B moves 800 B mrkt cap to 1.4 T = 0.02125 ratio Limited supply of BTC on exchanges and retail and institutions tend to hoddle this is a factor So how about ETH now? also 30% staked Market cap for ETH is lower but not by so much considering – & real funds available on the ETF route estimated to be 10-20% of the money put into BTC so say 3-5 Billion best guess by Jordan on Kitco (prior analysts got the amount of ETF funds wrong they underestimated what was in the pipeline) Announcement of ETH ETF resulted on 80 million added overnight to market cap by bidding up the price Jordan estimates 4-5 B to flow via ETH funds - spot means the fund mngrs have to buy ETH up to 30-90 or so days later depending on fund set up rules So 5 B moves 420 B how much if same pattern then 90% can be expected maths shows 0.02125 rato So 5/420=0.0119 So 0.0119/0.02125= 0.56 So 420*1.56=655M just over the ATH for ETH which is highly plausible and exceeds the Asc Tri target still on ETH from prior years approx. 33% still to go. Makes ETH a sensible investment moving forward if you are bullish For 4 B inflow works out 44% hence 1.44 x 420 =604B market cap for ETH which is same as HVF full target if you use most volume line as axis as a prediction. Of course after the first few days we can see the rate of flow of money into the EFT ETH fund and compare to BTC and then predict the $4-5 Billion more accurately and adjust the model for ETH price Once the ETF flows run everyone can calculate this and it becomes obvious if you would have go back into ETH as it hit its recent KLOS you had pretty much a guaranteed 66% in under a year with next to no down side risk exposure. This is as a minimum objective based on info before the flow of ETF funds were known. So it should be updated as data becomes clarified. The method is logical and fair. Awareness of factors leading to the market cap/price is still relatively uncommon knowledge. Disclaimer: Just for education purposes not advice. Unless you are an institution.

BTCUSDT ⚡ Channel Pattern SpottedHey guys! At this very moment, we are in the middle of almost everything so you don't want to get caught on the wrong side of the trade. Better be safe than sorry. Having said that, here's my idea about what we are looking at right now. 1) There's a channel marked by green lines as shown in the chart. If you can see this, you'll notice whenever price touches the upper line it gets rejected and whenever it touches the lower band it bounces back inside the range. We can buy when price hits there and sell whenever it touches the upper resistance channel range. A deal breaker would be either a breakdown of the channel or breakout of the channel. 2) TARGETS if price keeps respecting the channel pattern, would be at the top resistance line to take profits as a buyer and viceversa as a buyer taking entry trigger a candlestick pattern on the lower band of the channel. This idea is to spot for the long term. This asset is still in balanced mode, there hasn't been a breakout of the range yet. However, it's worth to note that there's a channel pattern playing out, right now. Hope you find it useful and be able to take advantage of this idea. Kina Tip of the Day: Take profits partially even when they don't seem much because in the long run they will grow in a balanced way with the rest of the portfolio. Keep it shiny ⭐ Kina, The Girly Trader

ZENUSDT → Bullish potential in the red market. Break of 10.0 ↑BINANCE:ZENUSDT demonstrates a rally and a retest of the range resistance in the form of a false breakdown, only that does not lead to a fall. The price is forming a pre-breakdown consolidation. With the breakout of 10.0, the growth may continue On H4, a reversal pattern is forming within the framework of which, while the cryptocurrency market was falling, zen was testing resistance. A false breakout and liquidity capture is formed. This maneuver does not lead to a fall, and the market goes into a state of consolidation, the nature of which resembles a pre-breakdown. There are no fundamentals, the market follows the flagships, which fall because of some problems. Bitcoin is dragging everyone down due to the sale of a large number of coins by Germany, and the debt repayment by Mt.Gox exchange, which has destabilized the situation in general. Resistance levels: 9.79-10.0 Support levels: 9.35, 8.8, 8.14 In this case, it is acceptable to use a breakout strategy against resistance at 9.79-9.87. But, if the structure will be broken, the price, in order to increase the volume before the growth may head towards the support. Regards R. Linda!

Crude Oil hit Major Resistance, 10% Down until early AugustIn my latest analysis of the Crude Oil Futures ( NYMEX:CL1! ) market, I've identified key medium-term resistance and support levels. The resistance at $84.30 was ideal for a short position, with a trailing-stop set at $83.80 to manage risk. My target for this short position is $74.50, suggesting a significant profit potential of over 10%. Considering that most significant downtrends in oil take about 20 days, I expect the price to reach $74.50 around the end of July or early August. I also noticed consolidation zones between $82.00 and $77.00, which may cause temporary price consolidation. The medium-term support at $74.50 is crucial for considering a long position, indicating a possible upward reversal. My strategy is to short at $84.30 (already done) with a stop-loss at $83.80 (to minimize losses) and aim for a profit at $74.50, while closely monitoring the consolidation zones for any signs of price stalling or reversal. If all goes according my plan, I also might consider a long position at around $74. What is your take on OIL for the next month?
