Uptrend

I might buy this minor uptrend but GOLD IS BEARISHGold is coming off of lower low after lower low on all major timeframes so its not surprise that my first bias is bearish. However, when it comes to intraday trading, momentum is important for swings in the market and the difference between volatility or consolidation while profits float. I'm going to take this opportunity to buy gold if a structural higher high is formed since my immediate correction trendline has already been broken. Any buys are short term countertrend moves as the winning team is currently the bears. The neckline of the daily double top and retest of weekly resistance will not go unnoticed.

📈Navigating the Uptrend📍 Understanding an Uptrend An upward trend provides investors with an opportunity to profit from rising asset prices. Selling an asset once it has failed to create a higher peak and trough is one of the most effective ways to avoid large losses that can result from a change in trend. Some technical traders utilize trendlines to identify an uptrend and spot possible trend reversals. The trendline is drawn along the rising swing lows, helping to show where future swing lows may form. Moving averages are also utilized by some technical traders to analyze uptrends. When the price is above the moving average the trend is considered up. Conversely, when the price drops below the moving average it means the price is now trading below the average price over a given period and may therefore no longer be in an uptrend. While these tools may be helpful in visually seeing the uptrend, ultimately the price should be making higher swing highs and higher swing lows to confirm that an uptrend is present. When an asset fails to produce higher swing highs and lows, it means that a downtrend could be underway, the asset is ranging, or the price action is choppy and the trend direction is hard to determine. In such cases, uptrend traders may opt to step aside until an uptrend is clearly visible. 📍 Key Takeaways 🔹 Uptrends are characterized by higher peaks and troughs over time and imply bullish sentiment among investors. 🔹 A change in trend is fueled by a change in the supply of stocks investors want to buy compared with the supply of available shares in the market. 🔹 Uptrends are often coincidental with positive changes in the factors that surround the security, whether macroeconomic or specifically associated with a company's business model 👤 @AlgoBuddy 📅 Daily Ideas about market update, psychology & indicators ❤️ If you appreciate our work, please like, comment and follow ❤️

Potential High for usdjpy, intraday short setup 30mminUSDJPY has been uptrending rather strong for quite a few weeks now. Its common that you'd like to go go against the trend, however, the only way to learn how to trade reversals is to trade them. Price presented a volatile shooting star for the close of Thursday. (4H). The daily had some wick action also. The 1H had a moving average crossover to the downside before making the latest high. the 30Min has already created a srtrong eveing star and began downtrending on its 2nd lower low. Im looking to get in on the Lower high. A counter trend trade short back down to Weekly support.

Buying Ethereum at a Low is a good ideaThe Daily did not confirm its Bearish Engulfing from the 38.2 retracement level. Which tells me that a potential reversal is underway. Especially after a daily hammer and intraday the 1H HAS CONVERTED AN INVERTED HEAD AND SHOULDERS. This is important to our bias change from overall bearish to short term bullish. The 4H hour is in line with this move by the fact that it broke a minor swing high. or a lower high. This buy set-up can be clearly seen on the 30min as well as the 1hour timeframe.

Intraday Bullish Momentum swingThis is a follow up and actual trade taken by myself. I placed a short term buy today at 10:30A.M on AUDUSD simply because lower lows ceased being formed at a key support level. After a strong bullish correction trendline was broken then on the 4Hour the 8Moving Average crossed to the upside of the 21SMA. that's relevant because it lags behind price. The 1 hour provided some reversal signals at a clear support and the trade was essentially taken based on pure candlestick analysis. I love trading reversal candlesticks on top of support. Especially after a market gap on Sunday. I believe a potential inverted head and shoulders is on the way after price failed to make a lower swing low and is now attempting to create a new swing high. Potential short term up trend beginning with indecision candles then a bullish engulfing on top of a weekly support.
