EOSE 1W: Zinc, Texas and Big Money (Update)NASDAQ:EOSE
While the world argues about lithium, Eos Energy quietly built a business on zinc. It does not catch fire, does not depend on China, and holds a charge for up to 12 hours. That is exactly what overloaded American grids and data centers need. The company trades on NASDAQ.
Q1 2026
On May 13, the company published results that flipped the consensus. Revenue came in at $57 million, up 445% year over year, with production volume growing 5.7x. The headline surprise was EPS: +$0.12 against analyst expectations of -$0.22, a 154% positive beat and one of the largest in the reporting season. Factory automation finally started delivering real returns. Cash on the balance sheet stands at $472 million, full year guidance reaffirmed at $300–$400 million, with analysts projecting $600 million by 2027.
Frontier Power USA
Alongside the earnings release, Eos announced the creation of Frontier Power USA, a standalone project company for building and operating energy storage systems using Eos Z3 batteries. Eos holds 49%, with financing fully ring-fenced from the corporate balance sheet. Cerberus Capital anchored the platform with a $100 million commitment, Hudson Bay Capital added $125 million. Total equity commitments to the platform reached $375 million. On June 30, Frontier Power selected four Texas projects under the ERCOT market - Blanquilla, Aransas Pass, Nash and Wallis - totaling 230 MW / 920 MWh under the Stella Energy Solutions platform.
Rights Offering
On July 2, Eos launched a rights offering targeting $150 million from existing shareholders. Rights began trading on NASDAQ under the ticker EOSER on July 6, with warrants under EOSEW. Subscription price is $5.481 per unit, approximately a 10% discount to the June 29 closing price. The arbitrage between the rights and the underlying stock created technical selling pressure on EOSE, which institutional participants are using to build positions. The offering expires July 21.
Risks
The company remains EBITDA negative. Covenants with Cerberus take effect in Q1 2027, creating a hard deadline for reaching operational breakeven. The class action lawsuit Yung v. Eos Energy in the Federal District Court of New Jersey alleges management concealed production failures at the Thorn Hill facility, where equipment downtime reached 30–35% and bipolar plate defects pushed delivery schedules back five weeks.
Technicals - Weekly Timeframe
After an impulsive rally from the historical low, price entered a deep corrective phase and is now testing the confluence zone at 4.04–4.44, where the OTE level, the 200-period moving average, and a bullish FVG all converge. This week volume surpassed 83 million shares, with 55 million traded on the July 7 session alone, closing at $4.74. That kind of volume concentration on bearish candles near structural support is a classic selling climax signature. Weekly Stochastic has dropped below 20 and is beginning to turn. First target $9.37, second $14.40.
A $150 million rights offering, $375 million in institutional capital entering a project vehicle, and an anomalous volume spike at key support rarely line up at the same time. The market is offering an entry price that large participants are clearly using to their advantage.
OTE
ETHBTC: Wedge Compresses, CISD Marks the ShiftTen months of lower highs. A clean descending wedge off the September top, price grinding into its own apex by July. That's not distribution. Distribution needs volume. This had the opposite: the volume MA has been sloping down the entire structure, expansion getting harder to find on every leg lower.
Compression with fading volume is absorption, not exhaustion of demand. Wyckoff would call this a shakeout into a spring, not a markdown. The supply doing the selling was getting weaker with every touch of the lower boundary, not stronger.
After a A precision love tap on the sweet spot of the OTE followed by a CHoCH, price just closed back above the upper wedge trendline. CISD confirms it. The state of delivery changed here, not at some retest three candles from now. Gate one: reclaim the boundary. Gate two: hold it. This satisfies gate one.
What invalidates this: a close back inside the wedge. If ETHBTC gives the trendline back on the next few candles, this was a false break and the compression continues. Until then, treat the boundary as the line in the sand, not the confirmation.
Marcus Aurelius wrote that the impediment to action advances action. The wedge was the impediment. Ten months of it. What happens next isn't a prediction, it's a function of whether the boundary holds.
SUIUSDT: Breaker/OTE to COKX:SUIUSDT is showing a clean bullish Matryoshka structure on the 1H.
The key detail here is that price has already created a structured bullish sequence, protected the strong low, and then pushed back above the Matryoshka level with displacement. That tells me buyers are still defending the larger bullish idea as long as the strong low remains intact.
Right now, I do not see this as a clean market-buy area. Price is sitting above the ideal reload zone. The higher-quality long opportunity would come from a pullback into the confluence below:
Breaker Block + OTE + discounted pullback zone
That area is where I would expect buyers to defend if this bullish sequence is real. If price trades back into that zone with hesitation, then shows bullish reaction or orderflow shift, that becomes the area where I would be interested in a long setup.
The first important draw on liquidity sits around the prior high area near 0.83 . That is the first logical reaction point. If buyers can break through that cleanly, then the larger magnet becomes the ABC C target zone , which is sitting much higher around the 0.92–0.96 region .
The invalidation is simple: if price breaks the strong low/B area, the bullish sequence loses its protection and the setup is no longer valid.
Important point: price does not have to give the perfect pullback. It can continue directly toward the draw on liquidity or even toward C without revisiting the breaker/OTE zone. But for me, the best trade is not chasing strength. The best trade is waiting for price to return to the area where buyers are supposed to defend.
So the roadmap is clear:
Bullish above the strong low.
Best long opportunity at the breaker/OTE zone.
First target: draw on liquidity.
Final target: ABC C zone.
No defense at the breaker = no trade.
This is a clean example of waiting for structure, not emotion.
XAUUSD: BC2 + OTE Supply Before C?OANDA:XAUUSD is still trading inside an active bearish sequence.
The main idea is simple: as long as the bearish sequence remains valid, the larger draw remains the C target below. Price does not need to give a clean pullback first — it can continue lower and move directly toward C from here.
But if price does retrace, the key area I’m watching is the confluence above:
BC2 + OTE + Breaker Block
That zone is important because it combines structure, premium pricing, and a potential bearish reaction area. If price reaches that region with hesitation, weak momentum, or corrective movement, then selling pressure from that zone becomes very interesting.
I am not interested in blindly shorting just because price touches the box. The cleaner setup would be price approaching the zone slowly, showing weakness, then sellers stepping in with displacement or a clear lower-timeframe shift. That would give a much stronger short idea back toward the bearish C target.
There are three scenarios from here:
Price can continue lower directly toward C without reaching the selling zone.
Price can retrace into BC2 / OTE / Breaker Block, react bearish, and then continue toward C.
Price can invalidate the bearish sequence by breaking above the key high, which would open the door for continuation toward new all-time highs.
For now, based on current structure, the bearish sequence is still the active map. The best short opportunity, in my opinion, would come only if price pulls into the premium selling zone and sellers prove themselves.
SmellyTaz — decoding chaos.
EUR/USD — Bullish Continuation Setup | SMC + OTE + Standard DeviMarket Context
Price has recently delivered a bearish displacement into a discount area after taking sell-side liquidity below the previous intraday lows.
The current price action is forming a potential bullish reaction zone, where institutional accumulation may occur before continuation higher.
SMC Framework
1. Sell-Side Liquidity Sweep
Price swept the sell-side liquidity resting below the previous lows around the 1.1525–1.1530 region.
This liquidity grab created the fuel required for a potential bullish expansion.
The sweep was followed by:
Strong bullish displacement
Change in short-term order flow
Creation of a bullish imbalance/FVG
This suggests smart money may have accumulated long positions after clearing weak hands.
2. Bullish Order Block / Demand Zone
The highlighted blue zone represents the institutional demand area.
This zone aligns with:
Previous bullish displacement origin
Discount pricing
Unmitigated demand
Liquidity reaction area
The idea is that price returns into this zone to rebalance inefficiencies before continuing higher.
OTE (Optimal Trade Entry) Logic
Using the recent impulsive bullish leg:
Premium zone → upside expansion area
Discount zone → accumulation area
The current retracement is approaching the 0.618–0.786 Fibonacci retracement area, which represents the ICT OTE zone.
Reason:
0.618–0.786 retracement alignment
Discount pricing
Previous demand
Liquidity resting below
Standard Deviation Analysis
Price is currently trading near the lower statistical boundary of the recent range.
The deviation framework suggests:
Price has expanded downward beyond the mean
Selling pressure reached an extreme deviation
Mean reversion probability increases from these extremes
The lower deviation band acts as a potential institutional re-accumulation area.
The expectation:
Deviation extreme → return toward mean → expansion toward upper deviation
Continuation Acceleration Protocol (CAP) — BTC LONG. Continuation Acceleration Protocol (CAP) — BTC LONG. Live documentation. May 31, 2026.
This is what the framework is built for.
Maximum fear weekend. Monthly close on the 2021 ATH. Everyone watching this level asking the same question. The Continuation Acceleration Protocol doesn't ask questions. It reads gates.
Gate 1: Regime. Higher timeframe structure intact. 2021 ATH holding as macro support for the third consecutive week.
Gate 2: Break of Structure printed on the 5M at 21:15. Not a guess. A confirmed structural shift.
Gate 3: Price retraced cleanly into the OB at 72,835 to 72,895. OTE zone held to the tick. That's not luck. That's where institutions were waiting.
Gate 4: CVD turned positive on re-entry into the zone. Delta confirmed the buyers were real.
Gate 5: CHoCH printed at 72,970. The market told me it was ready. I listened.
TP1 tagged at 73,520. Runner live toward 73,900.
This is the setup the whole week was building toward. Patience is not passive. It is the edge.
$ETH — 24 hours later, the thesis is building, not breaking.Yesterday's call: three pillars in agreement at the channel breakdown. Today's tape: every one of them is still speaking.
Wyckoff. Daily close held above Monthly Support ($1,963.56) and the Daily OB ($1,940–$1,985). The spring below the channel rail is a confirmed reaction now, not a wick. No fresh downside follow-through on the close is the schematic's first sign of strength.
Elliott. The expanding ending diagonal terminated where it was supposed to. Price reclaimed inside the lower channel zone and is coiling beneath the $2,061 POC — the magnet I flagged yesterday. Wave 5 didn't extend. It reversed.
Order Flow. Spot CVD curling up — real buyers showing for the first time since the breakdown. Margin CVD still bleeding as late shorts unwind. OI flushed sharply off the highs — late shorts forced out, not adding. Funding compressing back toward neutral after dipping negative. The crowded-short fuel is partially burnt off.
CAP gate check at this inflection:
— Session: active (Asia → London overlap)
— BOS: pending (need clean 1H close above $2,061)
— OTE: $1,985–$2,005 for re-entry on the pullback
— Sweep: yesterday's wick to $1,973 already collected the stops below
— CHoCH: triggers on a reclaim and hold of $2,061
Four of five gates present or developing. CHoCH is the only thing standing between this being a setup and this being a trigger.
Levels that matter:
— Reclaim & hold $2,061 POC → opens $2,090, then $2,180 (start of Wave 5 / 0.382 fib)
— Reject $2,061 and lose $1,963 → invalidates the reaction, reactivates the bearish case toward $1,830
— Coil between → still constructive. The longer it bases here, the deeper the floor.
The noise hasn't returned. The signal is still clean.
CAP · Continuation Acceleration Protocol
Three pillars. One conviction. Five gates.
ETH OTE + POC | Continuation Acceleration Protocol (CAP)Continuation Acceleration Protocol (CAP) status: gates one through three confirmed. Gates four and five pending.
This is the decision zone.
What the chart is saying
ETH has retraced from the May high at 2,465 into a textbook OTE at the 0.295 to 0.382 fib band (2,092 to 2,138). Price is now sitting directly on the POC at 2,081, which is the highest volume node on the entire range. When price finds the OTE and the POC on the same candle, that is not coincidence. That is the market finding the fairest price in the structure.
The ascending channel from the February lows is still intact. Price has not broken below the lower boundary. The channel is doing its job.
The question everyone is asking: deviation bounce or continuation lower?
Both are valid reads right now. That is the point. The structure has not resolved yet.
The case for a bounce from here
The POC is not a soft level. It is where the most contracts changed hands across this entire range. Institutional participants who built positions here defend it. When price returns to the POC inside an OTE, the probability of a reaction is high.
If CVD turns positive on the 4H or daily close with price holding above 2,081, that is Gate 4 confirming. The setup is live. First target is the 0.618 reclaim at 2,180, second target is the range mid at 2,280, and runners go back toward the channel upper boundary near 2,465.
The case for a deviation through the POC
A deviation through 2,081 that wicks below and closes back inside the OTE is still bullish. Turtle soup below the POC to print 2,040 to 2,060 before a sharp reversal is classic Composite Man behavior at this level. That is not a failed setup. That is a more aggressive entry.
The structure only breaks if price closes the daily candle below 1,998 (the 0.118 fib). That is the invalidation. Below that level, the ascending channel is broken and the corrective structure extends. Not the base case, but it is on the map.
The five gates: current status
Gate 1 (Regime): Ascending channel daily intact. Bullish regime. Retracement within trend. Confirmed.
Gate 2 (Break of Structure): Bearish CHoCH printed from the May high. Watching for a bullish CHoCH above 2,180 to confirm the reversal leg. Pending.
Gate 3 (OTE): Price in the 0.295 to 0.382 fib zone with POC confluence at 2,081. Confirmed.
Gate 4 (CVD): Needs positive delta turn on the 4H with a daily close above 2,081. Pending.
Gate 5 (Signal Grade): Pending Gate 4. Will not grade until delta confirms.
Levels that matter
Invalidation: daily close below 1,998.78
Reclaim confirmation: 4H close above 2,138
TP1: 2,180
TP2: 2,280
TP3: 2,380
TP4: channel upper boundary, currently tracking toward 2,465 and rising
The summary
This is not a setup to chase. It is a setup to wait for. The structure has done its job delivering price to the right zone. The next job is confirmation. A CVD turn with a 4H close above 2,092 is the trigger. Until then, this is an observation, not a position.
Five gates. All five. No exceptions.
Not financial advice.

NZDCHF: OTE Continuation TestOANDA:NZDCHF is sitting at a clean decision area.
The higher-timeframe idea is still bullish as long as the current structure holds. Price already reacted from the lower sequence area, formed the A/B structure, pushed into the WCL region, then pulled back aggressively into the zone that matters most: BC + OTE + FVG + rising structure support .
This is not a random pullback. This is the area where continuation should defend if buyers are still in control.
What I like here:
Price pulled back into the OTE zone instead of giving a shallow entry. That matters because shallow entries often become inducement. The better trade location is usually deeper, where stops are cleared and risk-to-reward improves.
There is also an unfilled FVG sitting inside the same area, adding internal liquidity confluence. The pullback tapped into that zone while also respecting the rising structure line. That gives this level more weight.
Above price, we have the WCL zone and a clear liquidity pocket marked by the equal highs. If price confirms from here, that liquidity can act as the first draw before a potential continuation toward the projected ABC target .
The clean plan is simple:
I only want continuation if price holds this OTE/FVG area and shows displacement back up. If price fails and breaks the invalidation level below the B/origin structure, the bullish idea is dead.
No guessing. No chasing. The setup either defends the continuation zone or it invalidates.
Bias: Bullish while structure holds
Key area: BC / OTE / FVG confluence
First draw: WCL liquidity
Main objective: ABC target zone
Invalidation: Below the marked structural invalidation
This is a structure-based continuation idea, not a prediction.
Not financial advice.
BTC 3H: TP1 Done. TP2 Next. 74,900 in Sight.BOS printed. CHoCH confirmed. Price retraced into the OTE zone, swiped the VAH, and delivered TP1 at 78,600 without hesitation.
TP2 at 77,700 is the next structural decision point. Below that, 74,900 is the final target. Three levels mapped before price moved. 2 still in play.
SL above 82,000 was never tested.
This is the part most traders miss. They exit at TP1 and watch the rest of the move from the sidelines. The protocol mapped 74,900 before the first candle closed. The position manages itself from here.
Gates 2 through 4 confirmed in sequence. Structure is still pointing the same direction.
USAR: When American magnets beat the Chinese monopolyUSA Rare Earth is building a plant in Oklahoma and owns rights to a deposit in Texas so the Pentagon stops buying rare earth magnets from China. The company went public on NASDAQ in 2024, and now everyone who follows the sector understands: rare earths are no longer about science, but about defense, tariffs, and national security.
Fundamentals
On April 2, 2026, the US imposed a 25% tariff on finished magnets and 10% on oxides. China controls 90% of the global market. This is a direct demand transfer from Chinese exporters to USAR.
The same day, the company launched the first phase of commercial production in Stillwater. Customer deliveries will begin in Q2 2026.
On March 31, a distribution agreement was signed with Arnold Magnetic Technologies. The 130-year-old company with defense and aerospace clients will sell USAR magnets through its channels.
On March 5, the deal to buy 100% of the Round Top project in Texas was closed for $73 million in stock. This is one of the largest sources of heavy rare earth metals in the US.
Balance sheet: over $400 million in cash (as of November 2025). In January 2026, the company raised $1.5 billion through a PIPE round. Another $1.6 billion is expected from the US Department of Commerce under the CHIPS Program.
Risks: the company is unprofitable (net loss for Q3 2025 was $156.7 million, including $142.4 million in non-cash items). Tariffs could be reversed with a change in administration.
Technical analysis
On the 3-day chart, price is entering the 16–17 zone. This is the golden pocket, marked on the chart as a possible OTE entry zone.
Strong diagonal support, drawn from spring 2025, is clearly marked. Price has bounced off it multiple times.
Current price: $15.92. Support at 14.07 and 12.10. Resistance at 16.33, then 20.30.
Volume on April 2: 13.2 million shares, more than double the 5–6 million average. Large players are showing interest.
Targets: first 28.24, second 32.07, main 43.98.
The market is pricing USAR on its ability to launch mass production and capitalize on tariffs. The 16–17 zone is holding, volume is high, targets are ahead.
ETHUSDT 8H | Secondary Path Activating | ABC Corrective → $2,060The diagonal delivered so far.
Wave 5 printed its terminal candle into the $2,390–$2,400 zone — the exact IF condition from the prior analysis.
The THEN is now in motion.
ABC corrective sequence is activating:
Wave A → $2,175 structural target
Wave B → ~$2,250 partial retrace
Wave C → $2,060 POC — the highest-volume node on the entire 8H structure
That yellow level is institutional memory.
The price the market has agreed on as fair value more than any other on this chart.
It also sits inside the CAP Framework OTE retracement zone for the full corrective advance.
POC and OTE at identical coordinates.
That is not coincidence. That is convergence.
The CAP entry does not trigger at the POC.
It triggers when price sweeps below it, CVD prints bullish divergence, and the CHoCH candle closes back above.
That sweep-absorb-reverse sequence is the gift.
Full size. Defined stop. Measured extension targets above.
Invalidation: Clean 8H close below $1,980.
Below that level — the corrective thesis is off.
The plan was written before the move began.
Now the market delivers the entry.
FLY: When space becomes mass productionFirefly Aerospace does what used to be the domain of giants: launching rockets, landing modules on the Moon, and building spacecraft for the Pentagon. Founded in 2017, it went public on NASDAQ in August 2025. Since then, everyone who follows the sector understands: space is no longer about science fiction, it’s about contracts, backlog, and scale.
Fundamentals
Q4 2025 revenue surged 173.7% to $57.67 million. Full-year revenue hit $159.86 million, up 2.6x. Gross margin reached 17.6%, with adjusted EBITDA turning positive at $10 million. Net income remains negative — expected for a company that launched its first Alpha just three years ago.
Backlog stands at $1.1–1.2 billion. NASA’s lunar program: Firefly became the first commercial company to soft-land on the Moon (Blue Ghost 1). Next up: Blue Ghost 2 ($130M) and Blue Ghost 3 ($179.6M). Alpha rocket: 25 launches with Lockheed Martin (up to $375M), 23 launches with L3Harris (up to $345M), plus contracts with the U.S. Space Force. Total Alpha backlog is around $800M across 53 planned launches. Defense contracts: In December 2025, the Space Force expanded the FORGE program contract by $109M, bringing the total to $372M.
Balance sheet: $893 million in cash. Free cash flow turned positive in Q4 at $79 million, helped by contract prepayments.
Risks: post-IPO class-action lawsuits (investors claim the prospectus overstated launch and order expectations). Operational track record: only three of six Alpha launches over five years were fully successful.
Technical picture
On the daily chart, a classic breakout structure is in place. Price broke a descending trendline, retested it, and is now in a possible second retest. Volume was above average during the breakout and retest, and declined during the pullback - a healthy technical setup.
The key zone is the Golden Pocket OTE at $22.86, where the 100-day MA aligns with the 0.786 Fibonacci retracement of the full move. Price tested this area and bounced. Two independent indicators pointed to the same level, and the market confirmed the reaction.
Current price: $28.47. Support sits at $24.5–24.7 and $22.86. Resistance at $34.37, then $49.59.
Volume on March 31 hit 9.35 million shares, more than double the 4 million average - evidence of institutional interest. Price is holding above the 50-day ($24.45), 100-day ($22.86), and 200-day ($18.11) moving averages.
The market is pricing Firefly on its ability to execute its backlog. If the company can scale to 10 launches per year and deliver on its NASA and Pentagon contracts, current levels will likely be seen as an entry point rather than a peak. The breakout structure, volume dynamics, and bounce from the Golden Pocket all support that scenario.
As one Firefly engineer put it: “Space doesn’t forgive haste. But it rewards those who come prepared.”
MNQ — Price at EQ, Eyes on Discount FVG & SSL Draw📊 Higher Timeframe Analysis — Feb 4
Looking at the 4H chart with daily context overlaid.
🧲 Current Position:
Price sitting right at Equilibrium (EQ). This is decision territory.
📉 Below (Discount):
• FVG sitting around 24,700-24,850
• Multiple equal lows forming SSL — external draw on liquidity
• This is where smart money accumulates
📈 Above (Premium):
• Premium zone begins ~26,000
• BSL from previous highs as potential target
🎯 The Question:
Does price respect EQ and push for premium targets, or do we sweep those equal lows first?
indicator — one click to see where the magnets are pulling price.
Watching for confirmation at NY Open.
MNQ Update — OTE Fib Failed, Eyes on BSL + FVG📍 MNQH 15m — Feb 3, 2026 (Follow-up)
Yesterday I placed the Optimal Trade Entry fib and called for price to push higher. Fib failed at the sweep meaning price most likely wants to reach higher.
✅ What's happened so far:
• Price has swept Sell Side Liquidity (SSL)
• We're now watching the liquidity pool sitting in the FVG there is also BSL there
🎯 What I want to see next:
• Price takes Buy Side Liquidity (BSL) into the Unfilled FVG above
• From there, one of two scenarios:
1️⃣ Rejection — Price rejects at the FVG and reverses
2️⃣ Continuation — Price sweeps a short-term low, then continues higher
🔍 Key Question:
Did Monday make the LOW — or will Tuesday make the HIGH?
If price breaks down, I'll be watching for it to fill in the Fair Value Gaps left behind. The structure will tell us whether this is a reversal or just a retracement before continuation.
Patience. Let price show its hand. 🧲
ETH M30 Bullish Continuation and Liquidity Expansion Setup📝 Description
ETH on M30 is holding a bullish structure after a controlled pullback into discount. Price respected the 0.618 OTE area and reacted cleanly, suggesting this move is corrective. With downside pressure absorbed, odds favor a bullish continuation toward higher liquidity.
