Wyckoffaccumulation

Possible Wyckoff accumulation for BitcoinAs a lot of people are talking about the possible Wyckoff accumulation, I've tried to map out how it could look on the charts. We would currently be in phase C, where we just had the spring and now need the retest with a higher low then the spring. After that we'll enter phase D where we would see an increase in Volume and a breakout above the resistance level of the 40k-42k level. Not saying this will play out but I'm keeping an eye on this for a possible long trade. I would like to see some bullish indicators on the 4h chart first. For the moment it still looks bearisch on the higher timeframes.

BTC Wyckoff Accumulation Accumulation: Wyckoff Events school.stockcharts.com PS—preliminary support, where substantial buying begins to provide pronounced support after a prolonged down-move. Volume increases and price spread widens, signaling that the down-move may be approaching its end. SC—selling climax, the point at which widening spread and selling pressure usually climaxes and heavy or panicky selling by the public is being absorbed by larger professional interests at or near a bottom. Often price will close well off the low in a SC, reflecting the buying by these large interests. AR—automatic rally, which occurs because intense selling pressure has greatly diminished. A wave of buying easily pushes prices up; this is further fueled by short covering. The high of this rally will help define the upper boundary of an accumulation TR. ST—secondary test, in which price revisits the area of the SC to test the supply/demand balance at these levels. If a bottom is to be confirmed, volume and price spread should be significantly diminished as the market approaches support in the area of the SC. It is common to have multiple STs after a SC. Note: Springs or shakeout usually occur late within a TR and allow the stock’s dominant players to make a definitive test of available supply before a markup campaign unfolds. A “spring” takes price below the low of the TR and then reverses to close within the TR; this action allows large interests to mislead the public about the future trend direction and to acquire additional shares at bargain prices. A terminal shakeout at the end of an accumulation TR is like a spring on steroids. Shakeouts may also occur once a price advance has started, with rapid downward movement intended to induce retail traders and investors in long positions to sell their shares to large operators. However, springs and terminal shakeouts are not required elements: Accumulation Schematic 1 depicts a spring, while Accumulation Schematic 2 shows a TR without a spring. Test— Large operators always test the market for supply throughout a TR (e.g., STs and springs) and at key points during a price advance. If considerable supply emerges on a test, the market is often not ready to be marked up. A spring is often followed by one or more tests; a successful test (indicating that further price increases will follow) typically makes a higher low on lesser volume. SOS—sign of strength, a price advance on increasing spread and relatively higher volume. Often a SOS takes place after a spring, validating the analyst’s interpretation of that prior action. LPS—last point of support, the low point of a reaction or pullback after a SOS. Backing up to an LPS means a pullback to support that was formerly resistance, on diminished spread and volume. On some charts, there may be more than one LPS, despite the ostensibly singular precision of this term. BU—“back-up” . This term is short-hand for a colorful metaphor coined by Robert Evans, one of the leading teachers of the Wyckoff method from the 1930s to the 1960s. Evans analogized the SOS to a “jump across the creek” of price resistance, and the “back up to the creek” represented both short-term profit-taking and a test for additional supply around the area of resistance. A back-up is a common structural element preceding a more substantial price mark-up, and can take on a variety of forms, including a simple pullback or a new TR at a higher level. Accumulation: Wyckoff Phases Phase A: Phase A marks the stopping of the prior downtrend. Up to this point, supply has been dominant. The approaching diminution of supply is evidenced in preliminary support (PS) and a selling climax (SC). These events are often very obvious on bar charts, where widening spread and heavy volume depict the transfer of huge numbers of shares from the public to large professional interests. Once these intense selling pressures have been relieved, an automatic rally (AR), consisting of both institutional demand for shares as well as short-covering, typically ensues. A successful secondary test (ST) in the area of the SC will show less selling than previously and a narrowing of spread and decreased volume, generally stopping at or above the same price level as the SC. If the ST goes lower than that of the SC, one can anticipate either new lows or prolonged consolidation. The lows of the SC and the ST and the high of the AR set the boundaries of the TR. Horizontal lines may be drawn to help focus attention on market behavior, as seen in the two Accumulation Schematics above. Sometimes the downtrend may end less dramatically, without climactic price and volume action. In general, however, it is preferable to see the PS, SC, AR and ST, as these provide not only a more distinct charting landscape but a clear indication that large operators have definitively initiated accumulation. In a re-accumulation TR (which occurs during a longer-term uptrend), the points representing PS, SC and ST are not evident in Phase A. Rather, in such cases, Phase A resembles that more typically seen in distribution (see below). Phases B-E generally have a shorter duration and smaller amplitude than, but are ultimately similar to, those in the primary accumulation base. Phase B: In Wyckoffian analysis, Phase B serves the function of “building a cause” for a new uptrend (see Wyckoff Law #2 – “Cause and Effect”). In Phase B, institutions and large professional interests are accumulating relatively low-priced inventory in anticipation of the next markup. The process of institutional accumulation may take a long time (sometimes a year or more) and involves purchasing shares at lower prices and checking advances in price with short sales. There are usually multiple STs during Phase B, as well as upthrust-type actions at the upper end of the TR. Overall, the large interests are net buyers of shares as the TR evolves, with the goal of acquiring as much of the remaining floating supply as possible. Institutional buying and selling imparts the characteristic up-and-down price action of the trading range. Early on in Phase B, the price swings tend to be wide and accompanied by high volume. As the professionals absorb the supply, however, the volume on downswings within the TR tends to diminish. When it appears that supply is likely to have been exhausted, the stock is ready for Phase C. Phase C: It is in Phase C that the stock price goes through a decisive test of the remaining supply, allowing the “smart money” operators to ascertain whether the stock is ready to be marked up. As noted above, a spring is a price move below the support level of the TR (established in Phases A and B) that quickly reverses and moves back into the TR. It is an example of a bear trap because the drop below support appears to signal resumption of the downtrend. In reality, though, this marks the beginning of a new uptrend, trapping the late sellers (bears). In Wyckoff's method, a successful test of supply represented by a spring (or a shakeout) provides a high-probability trading opportunity. A low-volume spring (or a low-volume test of a shakeout) indicates that the stock is likely to be ready to move up, so this is a good time to initiate at least a partial long position. The appearance of a SOS shortly after a spring or shakeout validates the analysis. As noted in Accumulation Schematic #2, however, the testing of supply can occur higher up in the TR without a spring or shakeout; when this occurs, the identification of Phase C can be challenging. Phase D: If we are correct in our analysis, what should follow is the consistent dominance of demand over supply. This is evidenced by a pattern of advances (SOSs) on widening price spreads and increasing volume, as well as reactions (LPSs) on smaller spreads and diminished volumes. During Phase D, the price will move at least to the top of the TR. LPSs in this phase are generally excellent places to initiate or add to profitable long positions. Phase E: In Phase E, the stock leaves the TR, demand is in full control and the markup is obvious to everyone. Setbacks, such as shakeouts and more typical reactions, are usually short-lived. New, higher-level TRs comprising both profit-taking and acquisition of additional shares (“re-accumulation”) by large operators can occur at any point in Phase E. These TRs are sometimes called “stepping stones” on the way to even higher price targets. source:https://school.stockcharts.com/doku.php?id=market_analysis:the_wyckoff_method

Wyckoff Redistribution or Accumulation??I have been looking closely at the price action since we have fallen down to 30/40k area, as I have demonstrated in the chart as you can see the wyckoff phases, right now as we have bounced from the lower 30/29k area with a wick it may be an early sign of spring, and as we know it if its a spring we should see a macro higher high, that means btc must break 42k resistant and close above it daily. if we get that its a confirmed spring and we can look for buy setup on backup action. but if even we get a spring and head high it would more be a dead cat bounce and can reject at 50/60k area. but the second scenario is that we have printed a SOW (sign of weakness) and now we are at last point of supply, which means that lower levels are ahead. I know that might not be the best news for many of us, but we should stay balanced and look for both options, as if you dont pay attention to the worst option you might get wiped out. As for my own personal opinion, I believe the chart looks more like its redistribution rather that accumulation, I say this because we had an clear UT that rejected badly to 29k area, yes it didnt close below 30k but thats more a sign of weakness to me rather a spring. before this week we had some good bullish news but i think they came at the worst time possible, and now they are forgotten like El Salvador news, so they didnt effect the market as they would have if came at a better time. I dont want to sound bearish but I believe there are many strong resistants up ahead that each of them can reject BTC hardly. right now Id rather monitor the price action closely to see how candles get printed and then I will plan my entry according to that. thats the best strategy for now at least for mid-term cause that would reduce my risk to minimum, cause the price action in the 30/40k range so far have been haunting everyone's SL. Anyway let's wait and see what happens and know that if you are using wyckoff as your main strategy, you always wait for confirmation and you make all of your money and profits in between, you dont buy the low, you dont sell the high. Trade safe and practice risk management all the times.

BTC:USD WYCKOFF ACCUMULATION SCHEMATICFrom mid-may to mid-june we saw a Wyckoff Accumulation playing out, with a rejection to SOS in phase D, red circle. After that we went into a re-accumulation phase. Scenario 1: If Bitcoin does the same as before then we've passed Spring on $28.5K and we should retrace for the TEST and go up to phase D and E. Scenario 2: If we get rejected again then the RE-RE-Accumulation will start and we will see a long period of accumulation until the end of the summer.

Wyckoff Accumulation SchematicPhase C A typical Accumulation Phase C contains what is called a Spring. It often acts as the last bear trap before the market starts making higher lows. During Phase C, the Composite Man ensures that there is little supply left in the market, i.e., the ones that were to sell already did. The Spring often breaks the support levels to stop out traders and mislead investors. We may describe it as a final attempt to buy shares at a lower price before the uptrend starts. The bear trap induces retail investors to give up their holdings. In some cases, however, the support levels manage to hold, and the Spring simply does not occur. In other words, there may be Accumulation Schematics that present all other elements but not the Spring. Still, the overall scheme continues to be valid. Phase D The Phase D represents the transition between the Cause and Effect. It stands between the Accumulation zone (Phase C) and the breakout of the trading range (Phase F). Typically, the Phase D shows a significant increase in trading volume and volatility. It usually has a Last Point Support (LPS), making a higher low before the market moves higher. The LPS often precedes a breakout of the resistance levels, which in turn creates higher highs. This indicates Signs of Strength (SOS), as previous resistances become brand new supports. Despite the somewhat confusing terminology, there may be more than one LPS during Phase D. They often have increased trading volume while testing the new support lines. In some cases, the price may create a small consolidation zone before effectively breaking the bigger trading range and moving to Phase F. Phase F The Phase E is the last stage of an Accumulation Schematic. It is marked by an evident breakout of the trading range, caused by increased market demand. This is when the trading range is effectively broken, and the uptrend starts.

ETH/USD - Wyckoff accumulation pattern, RSI-14 supportedHello, As we regularly visit the 'oversold area' on RSI-14, this suggest accumulation on the market. CME expiration date could suggest the the "spring area' in the pattern. CME expiration date is right after the launchpad of testnet of EIP-1559. The final 'London hardfork' with full EIP-1559 implementation stats 14. July, however right after testnet we will know if this implementation work properly... If it does, guys... (and ladies!) SKY IS THE LIMIT!!! Best, as always, Paweł ;-)

Minor fakeout to $27 000 in Bitcoin before shooting for new ATHsMany people wonder and fear whether Bitcoin has to go on the downside - if it can make it as low as $24 000, $20 000 or even lower. The longer we move around in this sideways range, the more technically convinced I become that this is an accumulation phase in the making. This time we'll go beyond mere technicals and back up our claims with fundamentals too. First of all, the Bitcoin fear and greed index is at a staggeringly low 10 out of 100. This means that people to a great extent have lost hope for Bitcoin and that they expect further downside to follow. Anyone who has studied market psychology knows that the market looks to inflict a maximum level of pain to as many market participants as possible at any given time. This is why it feels so good to buy at the top and terrifying to buy at the bottom, where each tick down makes you want to pull that catapult - and perhaps often do, too. The current state in crypto space is what Warren Buffett notoriously refers to as "blood in the streets". For the often so golden brick crypto roads are presently full of noob and hodler blood that exits the market. But for every seller there is a buyer. At these levels it is the institutions - the collectives of funds that possess more money than any of us pathetic retailers can ever fathom. Those institutions are the entities that can move the price. And those institutions are buying heavily at these levels. And mind you, those are what we commonly refer to as "smart money". Secondly, so far we have a textbook Wyckoff accumulation in play. It barely gets any more obvious than this. In an episode on my channel a couple of weeks ago I talked about how a fakeout to around $27 000 would both make perfect sense (as accumulations are typically followed by a final fakeout to shakeout the final weak hands) and how it would be inherently bullish for the crypto space. That analysis is fully in play and as long as Bitcoin does get that bounce reaction, things fully align with our technical expectations.

BITCOIN WYCKOFF ACCUMULATION SCHEMATICWyckoff accumulation schematic. We are currently in Phase B. (We arrived from a daily distribution schematic) I'm expecting a spring formed that catches the liquidity below the equal lows and below the selling climax. Only After that, I can see BTC recovering to at least 50k per coin. Right Now I am still holding my BTC and will add more with this liquidity scoop during an accumulation schematic. To trade it, enter long at phase C or E of the Wyckoff schematic. What do you guys think?

My Updated Bias On BTCUSDBitcoin price dropped from the $63,000 area into the huge weekly Order Block ($40,000 - $28,000 area), and has been consolidating in that area for weeks. However, the formation of a Wyckoff Accumulation Schematics on a 4H time frame would be a strong indication of price willing to push higher. At the moment, a Wyckoff Accumulation Schematic has been forming on the 4H time frame, albeit incomplete. A complete formation of the Wyckoff Accumulation Schematics and a possible test of the Spring should signify bullish run.

ETH Wyckoff Accumulation Pattern Potential OutcomesNFA. In my opinion It is not surprising to see the MAX PAIN of ETH Options for the last few days to be at the same spot as the potential Secondary Test Spot of $2200. With the bullish cross on the 4H MACD This could be the spring step that starts the next bullish run. As the options market reopens tomorrow we shall see if this is was the spring or if we are going to continue downward and retest the Selling Climax zone around $1800-$1900. NFA.
