How I Traded/Analyzed this last week 95% CorrectExcuse the breaths, I believe I have bronchitis.
I use the replay feature to go over what I was looking at over part of this last week. I think it is pretty insightful and at the same time, shows how even though I have been right almost 100% on recent "if x does x scenarios" there are definitely times that I look at the chart and say: "I'm just not sure what is going on?" and need to wait to see what happens.
I hope this is helpful and gives some insight. I think my way of trading is one of the easiest to pick up and is pattern recognition friendly, but because I do not have a lot of indicators, there is more importance on the movement of everything itself and somewhat the "fundamentals of the market" as opposed to the fundamentals of a crypto coin itself.
Mainly, I ask myself "What pattern and movement will make this look the most bearish and bullish. If i had billions or millions of dollars, I would only reinforce the spots that look good for me, but I might also reinforce the spots that will make it look bad for the other side. So maybe a heavily weighted bear was buying BTC earlier to keep the price near the resistance, but not pushing it past that spot. Now they are creating more bears. Sometimes it is more bullish to go past the current price if the price just drops.
Moving Averages
The power of the VWAP!As day traders we use the VWAP lots in our trading and have even created custom versions of it which help us manage our trades.
In this video I go over exactly what happened to US30 / Down Jones at the Frankfurt open and the New York open, and by using the VWAP today we could have taken advantage of these moves, both up and down!
Do you use the VWAP? Let us know in the comments below!

Multiple EMA UsageYou can easily add the averages you want with this indicator, where many exponential moving averages can be processed together on the chart.

Moving Average ChannelA lot of traders like myself, like to visualize the moving averages on their chart and incorporate them in their trading strategies. But what is extremely common in doing this, is traders being under the assumption that a moving average is the exact price in which we see supply and demand in the market.
In this video, I clearly outline how to add a channel around your moving averages, to give you an idea of where we may see a change in supply and demand. Having clarity in an area can help traders understand the moving average better than just a thin line.
If you do use moving averages in your trading strategies, I recommend trying this little trick to improve your success rate and understand breakouts better.

OHM Looking bullish, but we have a long way to go. What's next?OHMDAI finally seems to be waking up after a lof of heavy selling and speculators being liquidated over the past few weeks. We have a nice bullish cross on the 4h SMAs coupled with nice sustained volume. We have broken local resistance and need badly to hold that as support should we fall to it. Up 40% from our recent low and 25% from my video yesterday, which is very nice to see! We need to reclaim the resistance levels and flip them as support, as well as make a series of higher highs and higher lows or we cannot confirm a reversal. Let me know your thoughts, and any ideas you might have :)
Note: I definitely see the confusion between charting of V1 and V2 OHM but am doing my best to keep it consistent until migration is 100% done*

Is Ricardo recovering lost groud?Some good reasons why Ricardo is likely to head higher into the future. This is a monthly chart only and rising above the 200 EMA plus volume and stochastic gives reasons to believe the price is heading higher.

McGinley Dynamic IndicatorMcGinley Dynamic Indicator:
It was invented by John R. McGinley.
It would automatically adjust itself in relation to the speed of the market.
This future can be very helpful as it is sometimes difficult to choose the right period for the MA.
It also helps to account for the gap that often exists between prices and moving average lines.
Can't be used as a single indicator and we need to combine this with other indicators or another McGinley indicator.
Price actions respect moving averages because so many traders use them in their strategies.
Because of the formula, the Dynamic Line speeds up in down markets and moves more slowly in uptrends. One wants to be quick to sell in a down market, yet ride an up-market as long as possible.

My fairy tail for BTC going into September and Q4Recently, Bitcoin and the crypto market as a whole have seen a solid run-up from the lows we experienced following the crash in May. In order to move towards $100K+, we need interaction with the bull market support band.
In September markets typically see some kind of retracement and in BTC's case I believe with the bounce we have received off the 20 day EMA, a retracement of 15-20% could tie in nicely with the strong levels of support in the $42K region, the 0.382 on the Fibonacci retracement(from the previous peak to low), and the 55 day EMA.
If we do see this pullback, the strong levels of support coupled with the bull market support band can see BTC find footing in the perfect spot for crypto investors. This can potentially lead us to gain momentum and see BTC reach a new ATH over the duration of the next 6 months or more.
I think the probability of a dead cat bounce in this scenario is less likely compared to previous crashes, BTC has been below the support band for 3 months in an accumulation zone. Previous crashes have seen numerous relief rallies immediately after provoking volatility, uncertainty and ultimately resulting in some form of capitulation. This period of accumulation seems to have more structure. This may be due to increased institutional investment and Wyckoff distribution, as seen through the recent peak being extended over months rather than a blow-off top and the recent accumulation area.
Let me know what you think.

The MACD explained ! All you need to know about it Hello everyone, as we all know the market action discounts everything :)
_________________________________Make sure to Like and Follow if you like the idea_________________________________
In this video, I am gonna explain what is the MACD and how to use it and how to identify buy and sell signals using this indicator.
So what is the MACD, The MACD is a trend-following momentum indicator (so a momentum indicator is a technical analysis tool that allows us to determine the strength or weakness of a stock's price movement )
There are a lot of people that use the MACD when they analyze charts because it's very simple and it's very good but I always say never just use 1 indicator to analyze a chart, always try to use at least 3 this way u can make sure that the result is more accurate and the market most likely to move as u analyzed.
let's look at the theory behind the MACD before looking at a real-life example and how to identify buy and sell signals using this indicator :
The typical settings for the MACD are 12 26 and 9.
The MACD consist of 4 parts :
1) Zero line
2) MACD line
3) Signal line
4) Histogram
We start off with our zero line and this is where the MACD line and the signal line move around and basically so if the MACD is trading above the 0 line then it's bullish and if it's under then it's bearish.
Then we have the MACD line and it comes from the 12 26 section, and it gets calculated by subtracting the 26 EMA of the price out of the 12 day EMA of the price.
And after that we have a second line that gets plotted from the 9 section so basically, it’s a moving average for the MACD line so it tries to smooth the MACD line and give us some signals and it's called the signal line.(it's called a signal line because that's where we get our buy and sell signals from)
So on top of that, we have another part in this indicator which is called the histogram. So this histogram job is to show how close these lines will crossover, so when the distance between the MACD line and the signal line is far the histogram gets bigger and bigger.
So how do we use this indicator :
1) Crossovers between the MACD line and the Signal line.
* When the MACD line crosses above the Signal line then its a buy signal (Bullish Crossover)
* When the MACD line crosses below the Signal line then its a sell signal (Bearish Crossover)
2) The Histogram .
A lot of people use histograms as a way to predict when a reversal will occur.
We know that the MACD is a momentum indicator so it can show us when sell pressure is low. And that means it might be a good time to buy. And It can tell you when your long position is about to run out of steam and when you should exit.
3) Divergences between the MACD and the Market Price .
A Divergence means that the indicator is not moving in sync with the Market Price and a Reversal could happen (Note that Reversal trading is risky so please calculate your risks before using this Strategy)
always remember that :
Bullish divergence is when the Market price is going down but the MACD is going up.
Bearish divergence is when the Market Price is going up but the MACD is going down.
I hope I’ve made the MACD easy for you to understand and please ask if you have any questions .
