A breakout above $0.0037, with sustained buying volume and active buyer participation, along with RSI breaking above 60.1, could provide a solid long setup.
🔴 Short Scenario:
A breakdown below $0.00347, combined with increasing sell volume, a strong rejection from the current resistance, and RSI dropping below 45.85, could activate a short trigger.

FireHoseReel | BNB Daily Analysis #25🔥 Welcome To FireHoseReel !
Let’s dive into Binance Coin (BNB) analysis.
👀 BNB 4H Overview
BNB is currently trading near a key resistance level and is likely to show a reaction at this zone before attempting a breakout. As you can see, buying volume is gradually increasing, which supports a potential upward move.
📊 Volume Analysis
As mentioned in the previous analysis, a significant amount of capital from buy-side makers was deployed within a single 4-hour candle. With buyers’ momentum continuing, BNB still has the potential to push higher.
✍️ BNB Trading Scenarios
🟢 Long Scenario:
A confirmed breakout above the current resistance around $876.56, accompanied by strong buyer participation and increasing volume. Additionally, the RSI oscillator should break above the 60.68 level to validate the long setup.
🔴 Short Scenario:
A breakdown below the buy-side maker support zone between $819.69 – $808.06 could trigger a sharp downside move. Losing this zone may occur via a whale-driven move, so the preferred entry would be on the pullback after the breakdown.

26150 Conquered! Bulls Charge Into New Territory.
🗞 Nifty Summary
The Nifty opened with an explosive 119.25-point Gap Up from the PDC, positioning itself more than 87 points above the PDH.
After a brief 32-point step back to mark the day low at 26,047.80, buyers took charge with immediate conviction. Within the first five minutes, the index crossed the strong resistance of 26104 and began a confident climb toward 26155.
After multiple attempts during the afternoon session, Nifty successfully breached 26155, marking a day high of 26,180.70. The session concluded at 26,172.40, gaining a massive +206.00 points (+0.79%).
While the bulls successfully held the ground and closed above the critical 26155 mark, the relatively narrow intraday range of 133 points (post-gap) suggests that while momentum is high, a retracement might be on the cards if rejection occurs at the 26220 ~ 26235 zone tomorrow.
🛡 5 Min Intraday Chart with Levels
🛡 Intraday Walk
The primary story of the day was the market’s ability to sustain such a large gap up without immediate profit booking. Breaking 26104 so early in the session converted a major resistance into a rock-solid floor.
The subsequent grind toward the day high showed controlled buying. However, traders should note that the actual intraday expansion was limited compared to the opening gap, which sometimes hints at “exhaustion gaps” if follow-through is missing tomorrow.
For now, the successful close above 26155 keeps the short-term bias firmly in the bulls’ court.

📚 Interpretation
The candle is a classic momentum indicator. The close near the day’s high with minimal wicks suggests that participants were comfortable holding positions at elevated levels. It reinforces the breakout from the previous week’s consolidation and places the index within striking distance of the next major psychological barriers.

Market Structure: ImBalanced
Trade Highlights:
No Trade
Trade Summary: The strategy rules restricted an IBH breakout trade today. The combination of an imbalanced market structure and a large Gap Up (covering nearly half the expected daily range), followed by a very narrow initial move, correctly led to a “no-trade” day. This preserved capital in a session that offered limited R:R once the initial gap was priced in.

🧠 Final Thoughts
“The bulls are breathing thin air at 26170.”
While the price action is undeniably strong, the narrow intraday range compared to the massive gap suggests we might see a brief cool-off.
Tomorrow’s session is critical: a breach of 26235 opens the doors to a new All-Time High. However, if Nifty faces a sharp rejection at the 26220 zone, expect a retracement back toward the 26104 support level to fill the “hidden” liquidity void created by today’s gap.

USDJPY – Shorts Left Reeling after Position SqueezeThe Bank of Japan hiked interest rates 25bps (0.25%) last Friday and the outcome in FX markets was for USDJPY to rally 1.4% from 155.46 to close at its highest level since January 14th at 157.76. Not what the shorts were hoping for! These types of moves usually occur when the outcome of a risk event is widely anticipated in advance and traders’ have already positioned accordingly.
In the case of USDJPY, Bloomberg reported on Friday that all 50 economists it surveyed ahead of the interest rate decision, expected a rate hike, and the move was already around 95% priced into Japanese government bond markets. Looking closer at the price action going into the BoJ meeting, USDJPY had spent most of the previous 3 weeks probing lower levels between 154/155 (see main chart) as traders positioned for what they expected to be a stronger JPY and weaker US dollar.
Once the press conference, led by Governor Ueda, failed to provide more specific details on the timeline for future interest rate hikes from the Japanese central bank in early 2026, traders were forced to cut weak short USDJPY positions in thin pre-Christmas liquidity which then exacerbated the squeeze to the topside.
Looking forward, Japanese authorities may not be happy with USDJPY pushing to even higher levels above 158, or possibly more concerning the 160 level, which hasn’t been seen since July 2024. They could consider the idea of intervention to stop the upside momentum in its tracks, something that may add an extra layer of volatility to FX markets during the holiday period.
With this backdrop in play, staying apprised of the technical situation, alongside identifying potential support and resistance levels could be useful to assist trade planning.
Technical Update: Can the Latest Price Strength Re-engage an Uptrend?
USDJPY posted an impressive gain of more than 2% last week, supported by the market’s reaction to what traders interpreted as a ‘dovish’ rate hike from the Bank of Japan, which weighed on the JPY side of the currency pair. This move has brought USDJPY toward the first potential resistance at 157.89, which is the November 20th high.
Traders may now be asking whether this potential resistance can prove strong enough to halt the current advance and even turn activity lower once more, or if a closing break above 157.89 could occur, suggesting the possibility of further price strength.
Potential Resistance Levels:
Having marked the highest USDJPY trade since November 20th, the 157.89 level may initially be the first resistance focus over the Christmas period. How this level is defended on a closing basis may be pivotal with successful breaks above 157.89 potentially skewing the risks towards USDJPY pushing on to higher levels.
As the weekly chart above indicates, if resistance at 157.89 does give way on a closing basis, the focus might then shift to the January 2025 high at 158.88. A break above this level could then expose the potential for moves toward 161.95, which is the July 2024 high.
Potential Support Levels:
Of course, the resistance at 157.89 may still cap USDJPY prices, allowing fresh price weakness to develop. In this scenario, the focus could turn to 156.48 as the first possible support level. This is the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement of last week’s range. Closing breaks below 156.48 may be required to open potential for moves to lower levels.
A confirmed closing break below 156.48 in USDJPY could trigger further downside pressure, with 155.69, the deeper 62% retracement, emerging as the next support. If this level also gives way, the downside potential may extend toward a test of 154.39, which is the December 16th low.

Elite | XAUUSD | 4H – Weekly Market Structure Outlook New ATH |OANDA:XAUUSD
After rejecting from the ATH double-top region, price corrected deeply into higher-timeframe demand, where buyers regained control.

🎯 Target 2: ATH extension
🎯 Target 3: New price discovery highs
❌ Bearish Case 📉
If price rejects strongly from resistance and breaks below the bullish structure:
🎯 Downside Target 1: Broken structure retest zone
🎯 Downside Target 2: Trend support / demand area
Current Levels to Watch
Resistance 🔴: ATH / Weekly supply zone

📌 SUIUSDT.P — Buy-Side Liquidity Expansion (30M)
Market: SUIUSDT Perpetual
Timeframe: 30 minutes
Model: AMD (Accumulation → Manipulation → Distribution)
Bias: Bullish continuation after sell-side failure
🔍 Market Context -STRUCTURE
The price traded back into discount territory following a controlled sell-side sweep below the prior session's lows. Higher-timeframe structure remains intact, with no bearish BOS confirmed. This created a classic environment for buy-side delivery once liquidity has been engineered.
🧠 Setup Logic (Institutional Narrative)
Accumulation (A):
Range compression following sell-side sweep
Price stabilises inside a defined demand zone
Manipulation (M):
Wick and displacement observed - demand zone
Stops cleared beneath NY session lows
Distribution / Expansion (D):
Strong bullish displacement from demand
Expansion delivered during the London → NY overlap
🟦 TAB 6 — FVG / INEFFICIENCY
Multiple 5m / 30m FVGs below price
Price respected FVG support on retest
Clean imbalance → expansion behaviour
NETFLIX NEXT MOVE UPNFLX has completed a significant bearish displacement from the highs and is now trading into a well-defined higher-timeframe demand zone, which previously served as the origin of a strong impulsive rally. The current decline shows signs of momentum deceleration as price approaches this area, increasing the probability of sell-side liquidity being absorbed.
From a market structure perspective, price transitioned from an uptrend into distribution, followed by a clean break lower. This move has now extended far enough to justify expectations of at least a corrective reaction, provided demand holds. Multiple supply zones overhead explain prior rejections, making this a location-based swing rather than a trend continuation play.
The plan is to wait for confirmation within the demand zone (bullish daily close, rejection, or lower-timeframe structure shift). Risk is clearly defined below demand, while upside targets sit at prior internal range highs and untouched supply zones above, offering favorable risk-to-reward. If demand fails with acceptance below, the setup is invalidated — no trade.

Let’s dive into Binance Coin (BNB) analysis.
👀 BNB 4H Overview
BNB formed a strong support around $820 and is now slowly moving upward with solid buy volume. The next key resistance lies at $876, where we need to observe price reaction closely.
📊 Volume Analysis
BNB buy volume has surged significantly. In a single small 4H candle, buyers accumulated around $771M worth of BNB, clearly defending this price zone.
✍️ BNB Trading Scenarios
🟢 Long Scenario:
A breakout above $876, supported by rising buy volume and an RSI move above 60.58, could provide a solid long setup.
🔴 Short Scenario:
A breakdown below the maker-buyer zone at $820, likely driven by whale activity, could open a short opportunity. Entries are preferred on the pullback, with stops placed above the lower high.
🧠 Protect your capital first. No setup is worth blowing your account. If risk isn’t controlled, profit means nothing. Trade with rules, not emotions.
The #1 Mistake: Shorting This Stock Because Its A BuyI was wrong about the coca cola
short trade because i using parabolic

which is not a good strategy
am truly humbled to understand trading
also another thing
i have learned is that
i only use ONE pattern..
Do you want to know the pattern i use?
Its called the inverted hammer
This is my favourite pattern
Its the only one i will ever use
Its opposite equivalent from
the short side
is called the "Shooting star"
This is the pattern i use for shorting
but i would make sure the
price is below the open.
ON this chart of coca cola NYSE:KO
i used the inverted hammer
at margin i saw a draw down
of about -5%
Thats my risk level.
Also what i learnt about
trading these types of stocks
is the fact that they have dividends
payable this increases my case to buy it
and hold
because i know that investors.
will hold for the long term
i got this idea from Andy Tanner rich dad adviser
where you not only focus on the cashflow
which is the technical
analysis in this case
but you also focus on the value
or balance sheet of the stock
which is where the dividends income
But will this always be the case? not at all
but the dividends gives
you more power.

The Great Tug-of-War: Nifty Ends Flat After 176-Point Intraday Swing.
🗞 Nifty Summary
The Nifty opened with a 52-point Gap Up, which was immediately liquidated within the first candle, leading to a slip toward the 25715 ~ 25740 support zone. After marking an intraday low at 25,726.30, a sharp recovery rally pushed the index north to test the 25840 ~ 25860 resistance.
Bulls showed conviction by breaching this zone and reaching a day high of 25,902.35. However, the 25890 level proved to be a formidable wall, triggering a sharp reversal of over 125 points.
The 25800 psychological level eventually came to the rescue, and a late 50-point recovery allowed the Nifty to close at 25,815.55. The day ended virtually unchanged (-3.00 points, -0.01%), reflecting a fierce battle for territory where neither side could secure a decisive victory.
🛡 5 Min Intraday Chart with Levels
🛡 Intraday Walk
The session was a classic example of “two-way business.” The initial plunge and V-shaped recovery presented excellent opportunities for agile traders.
The most significant technical event was the failure to sustain above 25900, which led to a waterfall sell-off back to the 25800 base. This “round trip” highlights the heavy supply sitting near the 25890 ~ 25920 zone.
While bulls defended the 25700 base early on, their struggle to hold higher ground indicates that the market remains in a cautious consolidation phase.

Lower Wick: ≈ 38 points — buyers modestly defended the downside near the 25725 mark.
📚 Interpretation
The spinning top candle after such wide intraday swings signifies total equilibrium between supply and demand at the current levels. The long upper wick is the dominant feature, showing that sellers are very aggressive near 25900. However, the fact that the close remained above the open and the PDC suggests that bulls are unwilling to give up the 25800 territory just yet.

“The floor and ceiling are now clearly defined.”
Today’s low of 25,726.30 is now the most important level on the chart. If tomorrow’s session breaches this low, a new downside zone will open up for the Nifty.
Conversely, bulls are in a fight for survival; they need to reclaim and close above 25985 to shift the narrative back to a bullish expansion. Expect a volatile Friday as weekly positions are squared off.

Be wary of intraday market reversals, avoid chasing rallies.#XAUUSD TVC:GOLD OANDA:XAUUSD
Gold prices rose and then fell back yesterday, eventually closing around 4330, forming a doji candlestick pattern on the daily chart. This signal also serves as a warning that we need to pay attention to a possible market correction in the short term. Sure enough, gold prices weakened immediately after the Asian session opened today, retesting the 4310 level. Currently, the 4-hour chart shows a profit-taking pattern at high levels, and gold prices may enter another selection phase in the short term. At the same time, as everyone can see, Fridays are the days when market trends are most likely to change suddenly, so please be cautious when trading today.
During the European session, pay attention to the 4310-4300 area. If the price stabilizes in this area and rises rapidly, the bullish outlook can be maintained for today
