This morning NASDAQ:ADBE triggered a Spike Alert on the opening 30 minute bar. I double checked this signal against Volume Profile. On the weekly there is a major Volume Profile node at 480 considering the bullish trend from September 2022 to January 2024. The spike this morning touches this level and have moved off with a significant Spike: The Spike...
Today was yet another amazing trade off a long term volume profile level for over 50 points on the CME_MINI:ES1! S&P500 E-mini futures. I want to document these trades as teachable moments because I think Volume Profile is an absolutely amazing tool that should be in ever trader's toolbox!
For the first time in 2024 the US Stock Market's S&P 500 has shown TWO bearish signs at once this week. In any given year statistically one can expect 2 or 3 corrections of -5% to -10%. It is now month 4 of 2024 and we are due. In this video I talk about the two signs (False Breakout Monday, Break and Hold Resistance Thursday) that came together to signal the...
Tradingview has cancelled all streaming and will be deleting my work. This will be my last.
I have been patient to not issue new bearish projections until I see what I know to be objective price action evidence. With Sunday's Weekly bar close we received such a signal. In this post I want to detail how important this signal is in the understanding of price action as well as in actionable trading. I will present what I think is likely in the near term...
Volume Profile is a powerful tool for finding levels where price will turn. We will look at how to use this in Tradingview.
This week we saw Bitcoin test and retest the prior All Time High. We need a CLOSE above it to confirm the break. Will it happen before the weekend is over?
There is one emotion to describe Bitcoin this week: euphoria. How long will it go on in that state?
Is it time yet to short the highest flying stock of 2024?
I was having a conversation with a trader on my social media and he was sharing future projections of Bitcoin INDEX:BTCUSD with a parabolic curve. This is easy to draw using past major lows going higher and also with the fundamental force of the Halvening presumed to begin in earnest now or soon. My feedback to him is that perhaps the obvious thing to do now...
Price Spikes are a huge component of my trading strategy. Today's Livestream I'll focus on this concept all traders need to know and use.
What do you do when every trade you have on is flirting with your stop? Do you go ahead and take the loss and stop the pain? Do you stick with your rules? I am inside that moment right now and this is not something new to a professional trader. How I'
Back in July 2023 NASDAQ:NFLX on earnings did a weekly price Spike across a major 50% Retracement level. I entered into a short trade on the stock which worked well for a few months until the market turned decidedly bullish in October and then the trade stopped out. The recent earnings pushed the stock price higher as Netflix net income is dramatically higher...
Yesterday Monero CRYPTO:XMRUSD dipped over -30% on new that Binance was going to delist it and other multichain (privacy based) currencies. When I first saw the drop of my watchlist I feared that some part of the Monero protocol had been broken and that its privacy focus had been circumvented. Once I informed myself of the "reason" for the drop I became more...
The stock market is making new All Time Highs and inevitably people begin to want to outsmart it. Should we be betting against this rise because reasons?
To keep actively trading Bitcoin short... I am watching and trading Bitcoin futures. This morning there was a 30 minute timeframe Spike right at the level I have been watching since after the ETF launch: the 50% Retracement of the "Sell the News" phase. I am looking for price to hold this level as Resistance and retrace at least back to 41000 in short time. ...
With the stock market making new All Time Highs fresh new opportunities for contrarian trades are going to be somewhat scarce. Thanks to a viewer on my Livestream (every Friday on Tradingview: 4pm EST UTC-5) I was made aware of a short setup I like on NYSE:JPM Context This price action is happening at a test of the past ATH set in November 2021. Last week...
"Buy the rumor/Sell the news" is a phenomenon as old as markets. It was like betting on the sun not to rise tomorrow. I have talked to many Bitcoin enthusiasts who are perplexed by this occurrence. They were assured by various Twitter personalities that this week would see the largest inflow of capital into Bitcoin ever, price would rise, and if they just...
