BDL - An update and a VSA Learning ExerciseThis is just a learning exercise. We had anticipated a good move from this stock. However, 1230 was the trigger point for the Up move Now let us do a bar to bar analysis.
Refer the box marked “A”. We can see there was a sideways move or a consolidation happening. We can see the prices clustering together and the volume became low. It Indicated accumulation going on.
Refer to the bar marked “B”. It is an up bar with increased volume. This bar was an indication that things are about to change.
Refer to the Bar marked “C”. The next bar is a wide spread bar going past the trigger point, ending near the top. Also, we can see the volume increased volume indicating a high probable Breakout.
And today's bar (marked “D’) opened up above the previous close. The bar did see some selling, but finally it overcame the selling and closed up. Of course, the spread was not, the spread was narrow indicating selling pressure still present.
We can see the stock has started its up move and it is all supported by increased volume and the momentum. The price action momentum is also driven by volume and we can see increased relative strength. All that support further up move and the first obstacle we could see would be 1365, where we may see some more consolidation before further up move. This whole exercise is just for learning purpose.
Volumepriceanalysis
BDL - On the Recovery ModeCurrently we can see many of stocks which had substantially come down from their highs are in the recovery mode. We will be covering some of these in the coming few days. We will start with the first one which is Bharat Dynamics Ltd.
The stock saw a bearish down move of more than 15% and ended up below the 200 DMA. Now it looks like it is on the recovery mode. It has crossed above the 200 DMA and the short-term moving averages. Also, it has broken the supply line as well. We can see good volume support coming in. All key parameters like the relative strength, money flow, buying pressure and the volume adjusted momentum all seem to be favouring the up move. The stocks saw a quick up move, then it saw a small consolidation and has started resuming the up move. We can see a break of structure on the daily time frame. Now the stock is making a higher high and higher low structure and is likely to continue the up move. We could see a substantial up move and the stock could test the previous high of 1770. Of course, the overall market situation should also support the move. However, the downside is now capped and we can see more upside only.
HUDCO - On the recovery Path ? The next recovery stock which we are going to look at is HUDCO or the Housing and Urban Development Corporation Limited. The stock saw a drop or reversal of 15% and was pushed below the 200 DMA and from there it has been recovering. As you can see now, it is above the 200 DMA and also the short-term moving averages. It has started making a higher high on the daily. It is also making a higher high on the weekly as well. All the supporting key parameters are all positive, the relative strength, the money flow, buying pressure, all are quite positive and is supporting further up move. We can see good increase in the delivery volumes indicating committed buying. So, the stock could test the previous high of 350 levels. Of course, it is not going to be a quick up move, it is going to be a grinding up move, but definitely it is likely to move up. The risk reward ratio also is looking quite good at this moment. So, this is a stock to be watched.
Requested NQ Levels - NQ Bias chartJust one of my charts requested by the two people who read. On the 4h time frame they DO NOT, and I'll repeat, DO NOT leave fair value gaps untested. The only one theyve left is from the August 5 Yen unwind, which was quite artificial. Anyway, not super bearish or bullish, just cautious at the moment. Risk reward for me plays out in a question that sounds like, "Do you want to risk -30% for another +10%?" or would you rather forgo the 10% and find something a bit more better value? Think that's how a lot of NQ stocks are being looked at end of year. Again not calling for a rug, but quite possible NQ lags the IWM for this next leg. We will see, anyway feel free to ask any questions the chart is a bit messy, like my brain.
$BTC is VOLATILE SO DONT PANIC SELLSimple chart here showing the red trend line I placed on the chart 4 days ago or so i posted other idea of it.. left it there just updated and for different time period this time. Also lower projection. Thanks I am new to chart making so it may not be perfect,, but red line again was placed there as a "guess" market move and it kinda has :P anyway enjoy :)
GBP/USD: PAT + VPA 11/02/2024Good morning,
The GBP/USD currency pair continues to exhibit characteristics indicative of a sustained bearish trend, currently favoring the U.S. Dollar.
Several analytical indicators support this assessment:
1. The weekly chart for GBP/USD has been in a downward trajectory since September 30, 2024. Candlestick patterns suggest that "Market Makers" are gradually entering the market, purchasing at lower price levels. The weekly low is established at 1.26650, with a demand zone identified between 1.26650 and 1.2815.
2. On the daily chart, GBP/USD appears to be approaching a support level at 1.28168, coinciding with an untapped supply zone in that vicinity.
3. Since September 30, 2024, the market has experienced a decline of approximately 600 points, characterized by minimal daily pullbacks. This downward movement occurred following the formation of a new weekly high. I project that prices will descend to the 1.28168 level, where support may be found on the daily chart. This area could serve as a critical juncture for a potential pullback. Should the 1.28168 level hold, targets may extend to 1.132, representing the last significant low breached prior to the bearish trend that commenced on September 30, 2024, and continues to the present date of November 2, 2024.
Volume analysis indicates that market makers are incrementally entering long positions, although they are not yet prepared to fully influence the market direction. The overarching weekly outlook remains bearish, yet a corrective pullback appears necessary.

EUR/USD: PAT + VPA 10/02/2024Good afternoon,
Today, my focus will be on identifying long entries for a long position, as we appear to have reached a selling climax.
On the 15-minute time frame, a robust demand zone is evident between 1.0300 and 1.0400. The market has made a significant move towards 1.0300, leaving indications of early buying activity from "Market Makers." A notable reversal occurred on October 1st, followed by the formation of a bullish wedge (which is typically a bearish pattern) that pushed the market below the previous low. Currently, we are beginning to form a triangle on the 15-minute chart, which serves as a critical signal for a potential market reversal, particularly since it has not managed to fill the liquidity above it. This downward movement seems designed to eliminate the remaining sellers and early buyers. Additionally, my strategy, "High Clear," has materialized, suggesting that a liquidity sweep of the recent low was anticipated.
I am now monitoring the fourth leg of the triangle as it approaches the lower congestion line, preparing for a potential breakout with the fifth leg. It is important to note that if a sixth leg forms, it would indicate a continuation of the market trend.
I suspect that the market is attempting to prompt traders to shift to short positions, setting the stage for one final significant rally towards 1.1300. I anticipate that the market could reach this level in the coming weeks, unless we observe the formation of a six-legged triangle.

EUR/USD: PAT + VPA 9/24/2024Good evening,
Today served as a solid confirmation that we might be experiencing a buying climax.
Several indicators have pointed to this:
1. We are observing a bearish pin-bar that is accompanied by significant trading volume.
2. Additionally, there is an evening star pattern present, featuring a prominent long-legged doji at its center.
3. Two weeks ago, we broke through a low, and now retail sentiment is beginning to shift towards long positions. It's common for retail traders, myself included in the past, to chase the highs and make purchases at elevated levels.
I believe the first key level market makers are going to push for is 1.088.
Best, The Pip Assassin!

BLS INTL SERVICES - Ready for a short term Up MoveThe stock had undergone a big correction even before the recent small cap index correction. The stock fell almost 28% from 475 to 340. It was pushed below the 200 DMA, from where it has been recovering. Even during the recent correction in the small cap index, the stock was in fact showing lot of strength and the relative strength compared to the small cap index is positive now. It is also making higher highs in the daily frame while it is still continuing to make the higher highs and higher lows in the weekly time frame as well. Now, it has also crossed above the short-term moving averages and the previous daily pivot. So, the stock looks likely to test 475 levels. So, I am looking at 15% returns in the short term from the stock. Of course, one has to always keep in mind the overall market weakness.
BOMBAY DYEING - Ready to Move to the Next OrbitThe stock after facing price rejection in the range of 224 to 241 was pushed down to the 50 DMA. It moved almost sideways in the last three months. Recently we saw some interest coming back into the stock with the relative strength and the money flow turning positive and the volume was also increasing. The stock remained very strong during the recent weakness we saw in the overall market. Now finally it has crossed above the price rejection zone with good volume support. The delivery volumes saw substantial increase recently. All other parameters like the buying pressure, volume adjusted momentums, absolute momentum everything seem to be favouring further up move. Looks like the stock is ready to move to the top into the next orbit.
TDPOWER SYSTEMS - Likely to resume the Up Trend?The stock was in an uptrend and met with some price rejection in the range of 436 to 451, then it was pushed down to below 50 DMA. Then we saw some strength coming back below the 50 DMA and then today we saw an “Effort to move up” bar. Now the price is at the supply line and once the supply line is broken then we can see the stock testing the previous rejection zone and with some momentum it could take out the Price Rejection Zone and move up. Now the buying pressure and the money flow are positive while the relative strength is on the verge of turning positive. There is some good volume support as well. We also could see some committed buying coming in terms of delivery volumes. So, looks like the momentum is building up and this should see a stock being pushed up to test the rejection zone and further up. In other words the stock look likely to resume the Up Trend.
LAURAS LABS - A Stock to WatchThe stock has been moving up slowly and on the weekly, it has been making higher highs and higher lows. Also, it has been repeatedly bouncing from the 200 DMA. Currently after making a higher high on the weekly, it was pushed down back to the 200 DMA from where it has been bouncing. Now it has moved past the short-term moving averages as well. In the last few sessions, we saw good buying up bars. However, the key parameters like relative strength, money flow and the volume driven momentum are still in the negative territory tending to move to the positive side. Ideally this stock should make another higher high surpassing the earlier higher high which was around 520 levels. Ideally one should wait till it crosses 477 levels and all key parameters turn positive. This will also help to confirm that there is follow up bullishness. Hence this is a stock to watch.
MAZAGON DOCKS - ON A RECOVERY PATH ?The stock after a buying climax bar in the month of July was overwhelmed with the supply of the BC bar and was pushed down to below the 50 DMA levels. Then it started accumulating around the 50 DMA and now it's finally getting pushed above the short-term moving averages. And all the key parameters like the relative strength, absolute strength, the money flow, buying pressure are all nicely stacked up favouring further up move. So, this could move up again. Another 1000 points testing 5400 levels. However, it is better to watch the next couple of bars to see if there is follow-up support coming.
Cable (GBPUSD) heading for 1.3800, FED rate Hike Priced In I believe the FED rate cuts are largely being priced in. We are now moving to that liquidity event level that was as a result of Russian sanctions and some liquidity being sucked out of the system. I expect Cable to move up to the 1.3800 level first and then possibly 1.4000.
1. You can see the Volume come in after the FED cut. That's some of the earlier longs liquidating on the higher volume trading those events.
2. You can see from the volume that the trade started from October last year and picked additional pace in April this year. So if you are trading the upside now you missed out on most of the earlier move.
3. The key now is to wait for sellers or develop a bullish bias in intraday traders if you are a day trader. You can follow more of my thoughts as a 15 year trading veteran in London
Tricky Spot Thursday's candle closed above the prior day's high, reaching the weekly SIBI, overnight in the Asian session the price rallied, consolidated in London, and Reversed In the NY Session
4hr market structure is still bullish but at the top of the range creating a bearish reversal with high volume that created a bearish SIBI retesting value area high or the 4hr trading range/4hr Fixed Volume profile the 4hr bullish bars that traded away from POC showed an increase in volume but the bearish volume was higher
m15 has two potential areas from long at 20,271.00 or at 20,140.00
but I'm being mindful of the 20,406.00 to 20,362.00 level that can act as resistance causing longs to get squeezed out of their positions
I will review what happens overnight
Since NQ is typically correlated with ES I will monitor both for direction confirmation and divergences and convergences
Eye For Longs wiith Caution Tuesday's candle closed above prior day high, as well as reaching weekly high
4hr market structure is still bullish but after rally price failed to close above 4hr swing high
4hr Fixed Volume profile shows the POC is at the highs on the 4hr price attempted to move away from POC in a bullish fashion but could be a weak move due to the failed closure
I want to see what develops over night to get a clearer picture
but i do see a potential area for longs at 20,097.00 or 20,060.00
Since NQ is typically correlated with ES I will monitor both for direction confirmation and divergences and convergences
RADICO - In to the next orbit ?The stock has been moving almost sideways with a upward bias for the last eight months. However, recently you can see that in the weekly it has been making a higher, high and higher lows. Now the stock has successfully moved out of this sideways range and also it has crossed above the supply line in the top. The move was with very high volumes. You can see a positive money flow in the weekly. On the daily you can see that the relative strength, absolute strength and the money flow has been positive. So, it looks like that stock is now ready to go into the next orbit. However, the ultra-high volume calls for some caution. So, one has to wait till the stock crosses above 1973 which is a high of the “BC” like bar of the last day. Relative strength turning positive on the weekly will add to the conviction.
UPL - Finally out of the woods?The stock had been in a downtrend for more than 15 months, losing almost 45% in value. In the last three months it was seeing some recovery and finally now it seems to be out of the woods. We can see the stock is making a higher high and higher low on the weekly and we can see a change of character in the weekly as well. Now finally the stock is decisively going above the 200 DMA and also the short-term moving averages. The relative strength and the money flow is also positive. Even the buying pressure and the absolute strength are also positive. It is showing a positive momentum as well. We can now confirm that the stock is finally ready to move up further and eventually the stock should be testing 800 levels.
SYNGENE - Gearing up for higher MoveThe stock after nearly 10 months of consolidation had come out of the consolidation zone and now it is attempting to take out the previous supply zone as well. As we can see in the weekly chart, the relative strength and the money flow index are positive. In the daily chart as well, you can find the relative strength, the buying pressure are all positive. However, the money flow has not picked up. Given these conditions, once the money flow also picks up, the stock is likely to go up higher after breaking out of the price rejection zone or the supply zone. A positive close above 858 level, will add to the conviction.
MINDA CORP - Gearing up for More Upside ?After almost two months of side ways move the stock is on the verge of taking out the previous Price Rejection Zone. My checklist all ticked right
Relative Strength
Buying Pressure
Increased volume
Money Flow
Absolute Momentum
Increased Delivery volumes
There is a high probability of the stock moving into the next Higher trajectory. A positive close above 527 will add more conviction.
Tata Consumer Products Ltd. This is one of the very few stocks that stood strong in a very weak market. Today when most of the stocks were going down heavily, this one stood quite strong. It has also made a very nice consolidation pattern, almost a cup and handle pattern. So, any good move above the handle would propel the stock to much higher levels. The Positivity will really come into play above the level 1250. This is a stock to watch.
KNR CONSTRUCTION - Moving to next orbit ?The stock, after a long consolidation of more than 2 years, made an impressive up move in late May, early June period. Then it met with supply around 344-410 levels. Then again it consolidated for almost 2 months taking support in the previous Major PRZ. Now it is trying to move out of this supply zone. All the other parameters like relative strength, money flow, buying pressure, the volumes, all look positive and likely to aid further up move. So, looks like the stock is going to go into the next higher orbit.
MOTILALOFS - Ready for 15% up move?The stock was already in a up trend. It faced Price Rejection around 720 level and retreated. Took support at the previous support zone and gearing to move up. Money flow is positive. RS is also on the verge of turning positive. We can good delivery volumes indicating interest longer term buyers. Now likely to test the PRZ . Hence we could see a quick 10-15% up move.
