How to Trade with Bollinger Bands in TradingViewBollinger Bands are a volatility indicator that helps traders identify market extremes, trend strength, and potential breakout setups by measuring how far price moves away from its average.
What You’ll Learn:
• Understanding Bollinger Bands as a volatility-based trading tool built around a moving average
• How the middle band represents the 20-period simple moving average (SMA)
• How the upper and lower bands are calculated as two standard deviations above and below that SMA
• Why expanding bands signal rising volatility — and tightening bands signal market compression
• Recognizing overbought and oversold conditions when price touches or moves beyond the upper or lower bands
• Why these signals aren’t automatic buy or sell triggers, and how to confirm them with other tools like RSI or MACD
• Identifying the “Bollinger Band squeeze,” a setup that often precedes major breakouts
• Spotting potential mean-reversion trades when price closes back inside the bands after moving outside
• How to add Bollinger Bands on TradingView via the Indicators menu
• Understanding the default settings (20, 2) and how adjusting the period or deviation affects sensitivity
• Practical examples using the E-mini S&P 500 futures chart
• Applying Bollinger Bands across daily, weekly, and intraday timeframes for volatility analysis and signal confirmation
This tutorial is designed for futures traders, swing traders, and technical analysts who want to integrate volatility dynamics into their trading approach.
The methods discussed may help you identify breakout conditions, trend continuation signals, and potential reversal zones across multiple markets and timeframes.

Moving Averages
Taiwan Semi: Uptrend Intact?Taiwan Semiconductor trended higher earlier this year, and some traders may see potential for further upside.
The first pattern on today’s chart is the September 25 low of $270.19. TSM probed that level on November 21 but closed above it. That kind of false breakdown, followed by gains, may indicate that support is in place.
Second, the chip foundry made a series of lower highs in the first half of November. However it broke through that falling trendline last week, which could suggest its pullback has ended.
Third, prices are above the 8- and 21-day exponential moving averages. MACD is also turning higher. Are bulls taking control of the short-term trend?
Next, the stock is holding near its 50-day simple moving average. That may be consistent with an intermediate-term uptrend.
Finally, TSM is an active underlier in the options market. That could help traders take positions with calls and puts.

Freeport May Be Coming to LifeFreeport-McMoRan has been in a tight range for months, but some traders may think the copper miner is coming to life.
The first pattern on today’s chart is the falling trendline along the highs of late September and late October. Prices pushed above that line last week and are also challenging $43.31, the October 9 close that’s also presented resistance.
Second, the 50- and 200-day simple moving averages are almost on top of each other. That highlights the long period of sideways movement. With metal prices climbing and the U.S. dollar falling, could long-term neutrality morph into bullishness?
Third, the 8-day exponential moving average (EMA) crossed above the 21-day EMA. MACD is also rising. Those patterns may be consistent with short-term bullishness.

Waiting for Pullback before ShortingWill be monitoring for rejection in my area of interest for price to pull back to around 0.80460 before entering a sell, SL would be tight at 0.805.
Or a bigger pull back to around 0.806 with SL rather wide at 0.80856 as price might retrace deeper to around 0.808 area.
First TP 0.80304, second TP 0.80180, last TP 0.80023.
Price might not pull back and continue falling, but it's ok to miss a trade. I will just be looking for a different opportunity to trade at another time.

Is a crash to $56k about to occur for Bitcoin? - November 2025The above chart been brought to my attention by a number of folks asking for an opinion. So here it is.. remember, am just a messenger not target practice.
Price action shown on the above weekly chart has closed under the 50 week SMA, or so I’m told.
“Is that it? The top now in Ww?”
Look left, if you’re using two moving averages:
50 week SMA (blue)
200 week SMA
Then for you, the top is in. It’s over, go home. Congratulate yourself once again for providing exit liquidity for those that entered long positions at $15k. They have your everlasting thanks.
What's the hullabaloo?
Throughout the history of Bitcoin a test of the 200 weekly SMA occurred every time price action closed under the 50 week SMA. That’s not up for debate, it is a chart fact. Today that would be a highly predictable test of $56k, which is also the Fibonacci 0.38.
This forecast is going to upset a lot of people. The influencers promised them tales for fortune and glory. Instead.. they got a lesson in basic economics, but they had to pay $50,000 for it. You don't get refunds for stupidity, do ya?
Is this time different?
It is not possible to tell right now. Many might look at the chart and quit, they’ve had enough. That would be a mistake. Why? Confirmation.
Look left. Always look left. Until Monday 24th, November it is not known if the break of the 50 week is confirmed. Indeed if you take a closer look, price action has not actually closed a weekly candle body under the 50 week SMA, it has closed through it. That’s important.
Today
January 2022 Confirmation
June 2018 Confirmation
August 2014 Confirmation
Conclusions
So here we are again, Bitcoin teetering on the edge, influencers chanting “bull market!” like it’s a religion, and yet… there’s that nasty little blue line.
Price action under the 50-week SMA has never ended well. Not once. Every single time, without exception, it’s been followed by a cozy trip down to the 200-week SMA. Historically, that’s what Bitcoin does, it falls until it hits something red and expensive looking, then everyone acts surprised.
And where’s that level today? About $56k. Right on the Fibonacci 0.38. It’s like gravity with maths. But before you light the torches and start the “Ww’s turned bearish” posts, calm down. The candle hasn’t confirmed yet. That’s right, you’ve got until Monday, November 24th to find out if this is the real deal or just another fake-out designed to make you question every life decision since buying at $110k.
Look left. Every time price closed through the 50-week, the same story played out:
August 2014: crash.
June 2018: crash.
January 2022: crash.
It’s basically Bitcoin’s version of Groundhog Day, but without Bill Murray or the happy ending.
If it confirms below that line, that’s it. The 200-week SMA becomes the magnet.
If not, we’ll bounce, the influencers will return, and everyone will convince themselves they knew all along.
Either way, I’m not saying “doom.” I’m just saying, maths, it works.

If you blame “market manipulation,” congratulations, you’ve just described every loser in crypto since 2017.
I don’t have a crystal ball, just charts and they don’t lie, even if people do. So whether Bitcoin crashes to $56k, or rallies to $160k, or starts taking payments in “Hopium,” I’ll still be here, tea in hand, smirking, watching the comments fill up with “You were wrong!” from people who were never right.

(Above the channel top and wick of rejection)
S&P 500 (SPX) – Daily Chart AnalysisThe S&P 500 is still in a strong long-term uptrend, supported by the 50-day moving average (orange line).
After a recent pullback from the highs around 6,900, price found support near the SMA50 and bounced upward again — a bullish sign.
Bullish Scenario (More Likely)
As long as SPX holds above the SMA50, the market remains in a healthy uptrend.
Bullish signals:
• Strong reaction from SMA50
• Higher highs and higher lows still intact
• Momentum remains positive
Bullish Targets
• 6,950 (previous high, first target)
• 7,100
• 7,250 – 7,300 (major upside target)
Bearish Scenario (If SMA50 Breaks)
If the price falls below the SMA50 with strong downside candles, the trend could weaken.
Bearish Targets
• 6,450 – nearest support
• 6,200
• 5,950 (major support zone)
Bearish confirmation:
• Breakdown + failed retest
• Loss of upward momentum
• Declining volume on rallies
Stop-Loss Levels
• For long positions: below 6,600
• For short positions: above 6,950
Summary
• SPX remains bullish overall.
• Strong bounce from the SMA50 supports continuation.
• If the index holds above 6,700–6,750, new all-time highs are likely.
• Breakdown of the SMA50 would open the door for a deeper correction.
SYS — Swing Trade SetupSystem Price is showing strong bullish momentum after holding the key support zone around 146–152 PKR.
The recent volume spike and RSI moving above 60 confirm positive momentum.
Ideal buying zone: Between CMP 156.39 and 152 PKR.
Stop Loss (SL): 145 PKR (closing basis) to protect downside risk.
Targets (TP):
• 165 PKR (first target)
• 171 PKR (second target)
• 180 PKR (extended target)
Structure favors continuation as long as the price stays above SL zone. Good swing trading opportunity with clear risk-reward levels.

Daily:
Tight Channel Down or Bullish Flag, well hopefully we will get the answer this week. We have good signals either way, if we broke the upper channel band on a good wide spread candle we have our flag and we can easily target 157.8, if we break below 155.810 we can short and continue down with the channel. 155.810 hold the price above on three occasions, day after day , which makes it a good level for shorting. My view of the dollar for next week is weak, but obviously respect the market and the chart and do what it shows me not what my bias is.
4H:
The PA has been in a tight congestion for most of the week, the good things the levels are closing on both sides (support and upper channel band) so we have a high probability of break out either way, but never exclude the chance of the congestion to continue. Now, because we have different trends on different TF's it is really hard to take a single side, I will keep mind and eyes open for long and short possibilities, we are in the middle of nowhere currently so everything is possible, the good side of it is that we have well defined targets and entries.
1H:
Now I actually see how wide this channel is (I called it tight on the daily analysis), to be honest pretty ugly PA, not much to do with it, except to wait to clear up or count more on the higher TF's. On Friday the PA was mostly near the upper channel band and also just below EMA's. Monday will offer good trading opportunities.
The Plan
Long Rejection + Breakout 155.810 Target 157.134 A 4th rejection at 155.810 followed by the channel breakout or channel breakout + re-test
Short Breakout Continuation 155.810 Target 155.038

EJ Thoughts, Ideas and Trading PlanEuro bias 34% Buy, Yen bias 25% Buy. This are overall biases not cumulative between them only is derived from observing each currency multi cross analysis, including their indices.
Daily:
On both sides we have pairs that my bias see as a buy although not strong buys. Said that let's dig into what is happening between them.
Last week I was very bearish, my intuition and analysis was wrong or not entirely as a re-test of the last high was expected and planned. We are pretty much still at the same point. What has changed from last week is that the Evening star failed to deliver, the bulls took control from the beginning of the week, we have a new low/support at 180.000, and we are heading toward the last high 182.010 on some good bullish patterns. As earlier mentioned both the Euro and the Yen are currently strong, so it is very likely to enter in congestions, and to be honest i will be quiet pleased with that because EJ offers really good entries in while side trading.
4H:
First thing that caught my eye is this bullish channel heading toward 182.010, second thing is EMA 50 which is very active in this channel and acting as support, so far rejecting the price on 3 occasions, and lastly the confirmation of 180.000 as current support in case the price start to fall. So, we have really good boundaries, where to look for rejection what could be a confirmation and what to target, in this case 182.010 is our rejection level, EMA 50 breakout is the confirmation and 180.000 our target. And this is basically all I will be looking for this coming week.
1H:
Zooming in into 1H, I can see that 181.471 has been rejected twice, so this is definitely another level to be aware off, it could be used as a potential pull back support or short entry level once the price reach the area of resistance.
The Plan
Only 1 short entry I'm interested in
Short Rejection at resistance 182.000, Target 180.00. Scaling up strategy starting from 1 lot max increase to 2 lots
181.471 taking half lot profit, then at LH adding one lot
180.800 or when the bottom of the channel breaks same thing.

Daily:
Very similar pattern to the GU but here we are still within the H,L range, this week the bulls managed to push the price above the upper half of the range + a successful test, long legged doji. Also the chart printed a HL, which is not very important yet because is within the range. But overall we are bullish, at least until the upper band of the range, then let's see, another thing that caught my eye is the contact with the EMA, which is currently pretty flat, but would be another bullish sign if we start trading above those levels. My target for the incoming week is 1.16562.
4H
Here the chart gets really interesting, let's break it down:
1. Break of 1.15500 which was holding the price down then came back to tested and up again.
2. The pullback went down to the middle of the range (yellow doted line) and it get rejected again, and also just above this level are positioned the EMA's which are inter-crossing preparing to support a move higher, and to add more to it the rejection came in a text book Morning Star
3. The bulls failed twice to keep the price above 1.16075
So the key takeaway from all of this is, we go long as soon as it breaks and stays above 1.16075
Now the top of the range is not that far just about 50 pips, which makes it a good target to hit possibly within 8 hours of the entry. Considering the ATR is not supper high in this Pair.
1H
Not much to add here, the 4H TF already showed us all we had to see, i can't see anything more or less to support/contradict the analysis at 4H.
The Plan
Long Breakout 1.16075 Target 1.16562
Short Breakout/Long Rejection 1.15500 Target 1.15122/1.16075
More entry levels will be added in the week, but this is what I'm looking for begin with.

GU Thought, Ideas and Trading PlanDaily:
This is my favourite pair for next week. This is why
1. PA absolutely clean and well formed
2. Breakout of the range + test (the hammer formed on Friday)
3. HL/HH
4. Trading within the Fast and Slow moving averages
5. Clear Targets
Now what I believe are the possible outcomes from here are or straight continuation from here (need a close above the Doji), or little more of a pullback at this point max to the opening of Wednesday and then continuation. I'm limiting my target to 1.33678 and I don't care if it goes above this level, there are 150pips to catch in this move, plenty for a day trader, let's don't be greedy. Also 1.33678 is the 50% Fibonacci Level of the weekly range so it's a pretty solid level, for now.
4H
At the 4H TF, we can see why is it important to close above 1.32690, this is were the bullish momentum came to end last week and stopped the price from going higher for the rest of the week, it is very likely that we enter in small congestion here between levels with some fake outs, please be careful.
1H
Ok, at this TF what I notice first is the secondary Resistance that formed just below 1.32690, the bulls already failed twice to pass this level, looking at this PA I wouldn't be surprised at all to see a re-test of 1.31562 before any attempt to continue higher, and definitely a good short opportunity for about 30-50 pips.
The Plan:
1.Long Breakout 1.32692 Target 1.33678
2.Long Rejection 1.31562 Target I 1.32692 Target II 1.33678 This is a particularly good place of entry for those who use scaling up/down strategies. What I personally would try to do if i get the right rejection signs is to go long 1 full lot, take out half lot at 1.32692 and then if it breaks the level I will look to add more 1 more lot, adjusting also the first SL to match the second.
3. Short Breakout 1.31562 Target 1.30404 (only after tes

Gold Thoughts, Ideas and Trading Plan WC 01/12Daily:
The past week the Gold rise about 3.75%, started from a rejection at EMA 24 on Monday and close with a wide spread "bold" candle just about the previous high. Now, what shall we expect to happen from here? I can't rely on Tick Volume as is all distorted because of the Holiday's, so be purely judging PA, we either get a rejection here of some form or a continuation. Waiting for confirmation is critical now, although if we zoom out on the weekly TF, we have this wide spread up candle which signal pure bullish momentum and so we might follow that as a bias. Waiting for confirmation at this point is critical. And the cues will be hiding in the faster TF's.
4H
Now, watching at this TF, we can see that the price broke the bullish channel initiated the 18th of November. Which also signals stronger bullish momentum. The Moving Average also start getting a bit of distance between the different lengths, another positive sign of continuation. Last barrier left is to close above 4244.94. In that case we can expect a push all the way to the ATH, otherwise if it fails to cross this level again, then we shall see the gold dropping from here and the first target is the last demand zone at about 3920.
1H
Zooming closer at 1H it's visible how strong was the up move on Friday dominating the last 8 hours of the trading week. Of course after something like this we shall see some form of pullback/correction, but one must be careful not to jump to fast to conclusions, if a reversal is to happen from this point I would expect to see multiple rejection before actually the price changes direction. On the other hand in case of a breakout there might not be a re-test but a straight move up, very typical for what Gold has been doing in the past up moves, so I would be ready to jump (even on higher risk) at the first breakout signal.
The Plan
Long Breakout 4244.94 Target 4379
Short Rejection/Pullback if the price rose to 4379 small target not further than the last Low.
Short Rejection at the current resistance level Target 1 4109.55

Nasdaq 100 (NDX) – Daily Chart AnalysisThe chart shows that the Nasdaq 100 has been in a strong multi-year uptrend from 2023 to 2025 and is now touching a major long-term ascending trendline (purple line).
This is one of the most critical decision zones for the index.
Bullish Scenario (More Likely at the Moment)
Price is currently holding above the long-term trendline and is also trading above the SMA50 (orange line), which still has a positive upward slope.
If the price continues to respect this trendline:
Bullish Targets
• 26,600
• 27,200
• 28,000 (major upside target)
Signals that strengthen the bullish case:
• A breakout above the previous high near 25,900–26,000
• Strong closing candles above the trendline
• Increasing bullish volume
Bearish Scenario (If the Trendline Breaks)
If the index breaks below the ascending trendline and then loses the SMA50, it could enter a broader corrective phase.
Bearish Targets
• 23,800 – first major support
• 22,500
• 20,800 – key structural support
Bearish confirmation signs:
• A strong breakdown candle below the trendline
• Failure to reclaim the SMA50

ABCL1W: turning around or just another biotech placeboABCL returns to key weekly support and prepares for the next move
ABCL has tested the strong weekly support zone between 3.48 and 3.98. This area combines Fibonacci retracement levels, a previous breakout retest and an important signal with ma50 crossing above ma100. Such a combination often forms a reliable accumulation zone. Buyers reacted immediately from this region which confirms active demand. The nearest key resistance is located near 6.05. A confident close above this level opens the path toward the next target at 8.00.
AbCellera operates in the biotechnology sector and develops advanced antibody discovery platforms for pharmaceutical partners. Revenue remains uneven due to milestone based payments. However the company maintains a strong balance sheet, significant cash reserves and a growing number of active programs. Improving sentiment in the biotech sector enhances the fundamental backdrop.
As long as price remains above the 3.48 to 3.98 area, the structure retains the signs of a forming medium term base. If this zone is lost, the market may shift into wide consolidation. The present reaction suggests that buyers are defending the level with confidence.
Support levels often speak louder than headlines. The chart usually warns long before the news arrives.
$BTC 200DMA Date With Destiny & ISM PMI RelationshipIn every prior cycle when CRYPTOCAP:BTC lost the 200DMA it retested it well into the midterm year.
Everyone still believed in the 4-year cycle even with this failed relief rally.
But all of a sudden this time is supposed to be different 🤓
My base-case is that we do finally see a proper business cycle in 2026.
I would give it a 50% probability that CRYPTOCAP:BTC does see a higher price IF that does occur.
My hesitation here is that BTC got a higher high in November 2021 with a declining ISM vs March.
Additionally, in April 2014 and February 2018 the ISM printed a slightly higher high, but BTC printed a lower high.
This is the conundrum ₿itcoin has with the ISM, and part of the Twin Peaks thesis (pinned tweet).
