Pivot Points

Breakout Retest With Upside PotentialNMR is shaping up as a high‑risk, high‑reward opportunity. After the strong impulse to $0.225, price has retraced nearly 80% back into the breakout zone. This reinforces why risk management matters and why chasing vertical moves is never the play. The week ending 21 December printed a clean weekly hammer right above key support. There’s no guarantee the pullback is finished (there never is), but the demand that stepped in is notable. Price also swept the monthly FVG on solid volume, a move that likely flushed late longs and trapped fresh shorts on the breakdown. It is also worth noting that we will be getting new yearly pivots in the new year, therefore need to treat the current pivots as weaker support/demand since it's near the end. Trade Scenario (Aggressive) Entry: • Current levels are valid since price has already broken above the weekly hammer high. Stop‑loss: • Just below the hammer low. Take‑profit: • Just under the 50% range level, which aligns with a small LVN, a logical area for first reaction. Further targets can be trailed with subsequent higher lows Trade Scenario (Conservative) • Look for a rally from here, followed by a pullback and breakout that forms a new higher low. • Depending on how strong the initial push is, the same targets from Scenario 1 can be used. • his approach trades a bit of profit for clearer confirmation and a more structured trend shift.

Nifty Analysis EOD – January 20, 2026 – Tuesday🟢 Nifty Analysis EOD – January 20, 2026 – Tuesday 🔴 25K Revival: Nifty’s Epic 380-Point V-Shape Recovery! 🗞 Nifty Summary The Nifty delivered a session of extreme theater, starting with an 80-point Gap Down at the 25145 support. After a failed 5-minute attempt to reclaim 25270, the index collapsed, slicing through the PDL and the 25060 support. Panic intensified as the psychological 25,000 mark was breached, leading to a deep low of 24,919.80. However, the bottom band of the daily channel acted as a trampoline, triggering a spectacular 380-point V-shaped recovery back to the day’s highs. The 25270 level proved to be a stubborn ceiling once more, pushing the index back down by 180 points. Nifty eventually closed at 25,157.50, essentially flat relative to the open, but having survived a near-catastrophic breakdown. 🛡 5 Min Intraday Chart with Levels 🛡 Intraday Walk The day was a masterclass in volatility. The morning breakdown below 25,060 was a high-conviction bearish move that targeted the 24970 zone. Once the “final flush” hit 24920, the vacuum created by exhausted sellers allowed for an aggressive short-covering rally. This 380-point bounce was one of the sharpest in recent history, though the secondary rejection at 25270 confirms that supply remains heavy on every significant rise. The market is now in a state of high-tension equilibrium at the channel’s edge. 📉 Daily Time Frame Chart with Intraday Levels 🕯 Daily Candle Breakdown Open: 25,141.00 High: 25,300.95 Low: 24,919.80 Close: 25,157.50 Change: −75.00 (−0.30%) 🏗️ Structure Breakdown Type: Long-Legged Doji. Range: ≈ 381 points — Extreme intraday volatility. Body: ≈ 17 points — Negligible real body, signaling total indecision. Upper Wick: ≈ 143 points — Massive rejection from the 25,300 supply zone. Lower Wick: ≈ 221 points — Aggressive, institutional-grade defense of the channel bottom. 📚 Interpretation A Long-Legged Doji forming at the bottom band of a channel is a textbook reversal signal. It indicates that while bears had the power to break 25,000, they lacked the conviction to stay there. However, the equal power of the rejection from the top suggests that the bulls are not out of the woods yet. This structure marks a transition from a trending environment to a high-volatility “battle zone.” 🕯 Candle Type High-Volatility Indecision (Long-Legged Doji) — Indicates a potential pivot point; validation of today’s low is the only thing keeping the current channel structure alive. 🛡 5 Min Intraday Chart ⚔️ Gladiator Strategy Update ATR: 245.67 IB Range: 147.60 → Medium Market Structure: ImBalanced Trade Highlights: 10:22 Short Trade: Target Hit (R:R 1:4.1) (IBL Breakout) Trade Summary: The strategy successfully identified the morning’s bearish imbalance. The IBL breakout provided a high-probability entry that captured the slide through the 25,000 psychological level, yielding a massive 1:4.1 R:R before the V-shaped recovery commenced. Personal Note: The system also alerted for a reversal long trade, but I avoided it due to fear and a technically far Stop-Loss (SL). 🧱 Support & Resistance Levels Resistance Zones: 25180 25270 ~ 25300 (Crucial) 25380 25430 Support Zones: 25060 25009 ~ 24970 24920 (Line in the Sand) 🧠 Final Thoughts “The channel bottom has been tested—and it held.” Today was a survival test for the bulls. The Long-Legged Doji at these levels suggests that a bottom might be in, but turning bullish won’t be easy. For the upcoming session, if Nifty respects the 24,920 low, the channel remains valid. However, if that low is breached, the structure is discarded, and we enter a new bearish phase. Expect extreme choppiness as both sides fight for control over the next directional move. ✏️ Disclaimer This is just my personal viewpoint.

$MSTR counter trend bounce?NASDAQ:MSTR has finally broken out of it's bottoming structure and looks set for a counter trend rally. If we can break above $200, then there's little resistance above. I think the highest probability is that we see $263-272 before the bounce is over so that we fill the gaps left from the move down. There's one gap at $205 and another at $258. I think if btc can rally into $103k-112k, that MSTR will sharply follow to the upper resistance levels. I do not think we'll break the upper blue trend line. Then I think we'll see continuation to the downside to one of the two lower $100 range targets. Let's see how it plays out.

$SPY the final leg higher, then 20%+ correctionI know there are a lot of people calling for a crash right here, and while I do think we end up getting one, I think there's one last move higher above $700 first. I think we need to squeeze out the shorts and convince everyone the next leg is starting before we see a move down. I do think after we hit and reject one of the upper resistances, that it will set up a great short opportunity. The trigger for the short will be UVIX to hit it's lower support levels combined with SPY hitting it's upper resistances. Don't know what will cause the move, but I think it'll likely happen even faster than the April move. So be prepared to exit as we approach the highs or set tight stop losses.

XRP has been BEARISH since JULY 24th 2025! IT STILL IS!BINANCE:XRPUSD Back in July 2025 , when XRP was at all time highs, nobody could see that XRP was in a Veraxis zone to the downside. Price was screaming bearish whilst price was allegedly bullish. To back up my call, i added a note on Tradingview notes, dated 24th July 2025 to make an embedded receipt of this prediction. My note said: "XRP must go down to AT LEAST $1.50 and potentially to 0.50c, as we are now in a HEAVY sell." Roll on October 10th 2025, the so called " Crypto Crash " zoomed price to 0.77c, which shocked the crypto space. To me, this was just the beginning. The black arrows on my chart annotate on the days i wrote the notes. THIS MOVE IS NOT OVER. As price progressed, many Veraxis zones to the downside were created and were respected, however the most recent one printed 10th November 2025, and on 17th December 2025 i embedded another receipt/note to say: "XRP will now continue its journey down to AT LEAST 0.50c, with potential to go down to 0.38c. Resistance may have to be hit first at $2.36 - $2.60 before it happens." And as you can see from the annotated arrows, price retraced EXACTLY to that price 19 days later. The journey is now continuing down. For context. When a Veraxis zone prints, price 9 times out of 10 MUST return back to it. I call the price of 0.50c - 0.38c as this is an untouched Veraxis zone. One caveat as it's price over everything: Price is currently in a Veraxis zone to the upside which is contradictory to my prediction of lower prices, and price 'could' move up from here. However, my back testing has trumped this move up in my opinion, as the Veraxis zone at 0.50c below current price, must be touched FIRST . If price does indeed spike up from this current Veraxis zone of $2.05, then i will temporarily adapt to price, but with always the expectation that 0.50c MUST be then touched in future. SAFE MY PEOPLE! (This analysis is built on the Veraxis framework — a methodology shaped from first principles and refined through extensive independent research. Veraxis, derived from Latin for “The True Pivot Point,” reflects a unique approach to market structure that isn’t sourced from external strategies or conventional teachings. It represents my own interpretation of how price truly pivots, reacts, and reveals intent. As always, this is not financial advice. Trade safely, stay disciplined, and let the data speak. )

Almost time to bid for volatility? $UVIX over $100?I think we're getting really close to a large spike in volatility. I think it's likely that vol will continue to fall into next week (and potentially a big longer into November), and if we can get down to the $8-$8.50 region, that there's strong support there and that could trigger a reversal. SPY is almost to my upper levels of $709-716, and if we can see a push up there and a drop down to the support levels in UVIX that should trigger a reversal on both charts. I do think the spike in volatility will be strong. The most probable levels on the chart for a spike to find resistance in is $110-117, which would be a spike of 1100%-1200% or so if you were to catch the move entirely, and of course if the idea plays out. I've also marked other resistance levels, should we get a smaller spike. Could be the best trade of the year if it comes to fruition. Going to be watching the chart over the next week or so and will likely bid those levels with some calls for a trade.

Bitcoin Liquidity Roadmap (8H)Bitcoin Liquidity Roadmap – Market Maker Liquidity Sweep & Bearish Bias Market makers have created a well-defined zone to accumulate liquidity from both buyers and sellers. On the chart, we have clearly marked the liquidity areas, which essentially act as liquidity pools that market makers target. Liquidity Pools & Sweep Zones Two liquidity pools above price have already been swept, indicating that the market has absorbed buy-side liquidity. Following this sweep, the price has reached a strong supply zone and the trendline support has been broken. This combination is a powerful bearish signal, especially when confirmed by a structural breakdown. Daily Timeframe: Bearish Trend Confirmation It is also important to analyze the trend on the daily timeframe and lower. We need to determine whether the market is in a bullish or bearish phase. From the ATH (All-Time High) until now, Bitcoin has been dropping continuously without a meaningful recovery, which suggests that the daily and lower timeframes are currently bearish. Current Market Scenario: Sweeping Lower Liquidity Pools Right now, Bitcoin is attempting to sweep two lower liquidity pools after having already swept the two higher ones. This implies a continuation of the market maker liquidity hunt, and the current structure is clearly favoring sellers. CME Gap: 88K Level Additionally, we know there is a CME gap around the 88K level, which often acts as a magnet for price action in the medium term. This gap increases the likelihood of downward continuation if sellers remain in control. All Signs Point to Sellers At this moment, all technical signals are aligning in favor of the bearish side. The market structure, liquidity sweep, trendline break, and daily bearish bias all suggest further downside potential. Entry Strategy: DCA (Dollar-Cost Averaging) We have identified two entry zones for short positions. The best approach is to enter using DCA to minimize risk and maximize position efficiency. This allows traders to build a position gradually rather than risking a single entry at a potentially unfavorable level. Invalidating the Analysis This bearish outlook will be invalidated if Bitcoin closes a daily candle above the liquidation invalidation level. A daily close above this level would break the bearish structure and signal a possible trend reversal or a shift in market sentiment. invalidation level: 97300$ If you would like us to analyze a coin or altcoin for you, first like this post, then comment the name of your altcoin below.

Nifty Analysis EOD – January 20, 2026 – Tuesday🟢 Nifty Analysis EOD – January 20, 2026 – Tuesday 🔴 100-Day Low Breach: Nifty Panics as 25,500 Support Crumbles. 🗞 Nifty Summary The Nifty opened with a misleading 30-point Gap Up, but the bullish sentiment was vaporized within the first minute. Mirroring yesterday’s bearish intent, the index slipped 150 points from the first tick. While bulls attempted to form a base around 25,435, the 25,500 level acted as a massive supply barrier, repelling every recovery attempt. The subsequent breach of the November 7, 2025, swing low triggered a wave of panic selling that no support level could arrest. Nifty plummeted to test 25,180, marking a deep low of 25,171.35. Closing at 25,232.50, the index has recorded its lowest close in the last 100 days, losing -353.00 points (-1.38%). The primary catalyst for this carnage was a classic structural failure; once key supports were breached, the vacuum created led to a complete “washout” of long positions. 🛡 5 Min Intraday Chart with Levels 🛡 Intraday Walk The day was a masterclass in “Momentum Expansion.” The initial gap-up was a clear trap, and the 150-point slide set a grim tone for the session. The mid-day attempt to hold 25,435 was crushed by the overhead supply at 25,500. As soon as the “Line in the Sand” from November ‘25 was crossed, the algorithmic selling took over. The index is now trading at the bottom band of the channel on the Daily Time Frame. After such a massive 414-point range expansion, the market is severely stretched, suggesting that while the bias is bearish, a “dead cat bounce” or a narrow consolidation phase is likely in the upcoming session. 📉 Daily Time Frame Chart with Intraday Levels 🕯 Daily Candle Breakdown Open: 25,580.30 High: 25,585.00 Low: 25,171.35 Close: 25,232.50 Change: −353.00 (−1.38%) 🏗️ Structure Breakdown Type: Strong Bearish Momentum candle. Range: ≈ 414 points — Very high volatility; major range expansion. Body: ≈ 348 points — Aggressive selling with almost no intraday recovery. Upper Wick: ≈ 5 points — Total lack of buying interest at the open. Lower Wick: ≈ 61 points — Late short-covering from the extreme lows. 📚 Interpretation The candle structure represents a complete breakdown of market confidence. Opening at the high and closing near the low (despite a minor bounce) confirms that the bears are in absolute control. The breach of the 100-day closing low and the November swing low confirms that the medium-term structure has turned bearish. Distribution is at its peak. 🕯 Candle Type Strong Bearish Momentum Candle — Indicates decisive selling dominance. This is a “breakout” candle from a larger structural range; typically leads to further downside unless a sharp reversal occurs. 🛡 5 Min Intraday Chart ⚔️ Gladiator Strategy Update ATR: 230.62 IB Range: 150.40 → Big Market Structure: ImBalanced Trade Highlights: 12:41 Short Trade: Target Hit (R:R 1:6.76) Trade Summary: The setup was a textbook “Narrow CPR” play. Despite the Big IB, the combination of an Important Level Breakout and extreme bearish sentiment supported a high-conviction trade. The sustained fall allowed the strategy to capture a massive 1:6.76 R:R, effectively leveraging the panic selling. 🧱 Support & Resistance Levels Resistance Zones: 25380 25430 25480 ~ 25495 25550 25605 Support Zones: 25270 25180 ~ 25145 25060 25000 ~ 24970 🧠 Final Thoughts “Panic is the harvest of broken levels.” The Nifty has reached the bottom of its daily channel, and the RSI is likely approaching oversold territory. For tomorrow, expect a decrease in volatility with a smaller range movement. We might see 25,060 act as a temporary floor, or potentially triggering a “dead cat bounce” back toward the 25,380 resistance. Regardless of the bias, we will wait for the Initial Balance (IB) to form before committing to any intraday actions. The strategy is to respect the trend but be wary of a sharp, low-volume bounce from the channel extremes. ✏️ Disclaimer This is just my personal viewpoint.

After an impulsive push, price is now entering a healthy pullback phase. Pullback Logic (Key Focus) This retracement is not weakness — it’s a liquidity reset after expansion. Price is retracing to: Mitigate inefficiencies (imbalance) Allow late buyers to enter Prepare for the next leg higher Structure View Higher-timeframe structure is still intact (no bearish CHoCH). As long as price holds above the previous higher low, the pullback remains corrective. What to Watch Controlled candles (overlap / small bodies) during the retrace No aggressive displacement to the downside Rejection wicks showing absorption Plan No entries during the pullback Let price complete its retracement Follow-up idea will focus on execution from demand Summary > Strong trends don’t move in straight lines.

Gold Hits $4,630 ATH Key Demand Zones in FocusGold continues its strong bullish channel run, recently hitting fresh highs near $4,630 with price hitting weekly resistance and expecting a correction towards immediate demand zone before further continuation towards the projected sell off zone. Zone to watch are: 1. Immediate Demand Zone: Current pullback area – holding here keeps bulls in control. 2. Primary Demand Area: Major support if deeper correction. 3. Base Support Zone: Critical lower boundary for the channel. Bullish bias intact as long as price respects the rising channel and holds above immediate or primary demand. Breakout above sell-off zone could target higher extensions. Bearish risk: Failure at demand opens deeper retrace toward base support. Watching for reaction at current levels amid record highs and safe haven flows.

#USDCHF BullishI believe we are bullish on USDCHF. What I believe is going to happen right now is liquidate my Breakout Box to the sell side, or possibly just retest the equilibrium, and go bullish. As of now, we need to wait for more candles to be revealed to confirm where price really wants to move, and for that to happen we need to wait for the London session. We need to pay attention to the 4hour and 1hour timeframe when they are closing and how they are close/ forming. Knowing what the big timeframes are doing and OANDA:USDCHF let it all be in sync with the 15minute timeframe.

USDJPY- Bullish Continuation | Cycle Re-AlignmentUSDJPY remains bullish from a higher-timeframe perspective, with price continuing to respect a clear higher-high / higher-low structure. Recent impulse legs were supported by strong momentum and volume, confirming institutional participation during expansion. From a cycle standpoint: • Price accumulated within a tight range • Expansion followed, establishing bullish intent • We are now seeing distribution pull price back into prior accumulation territory This retracement is part of re-accumulation, not a shift in bias. As price works lower, I’m allowing bears to print corrective lower-high structure, guiding price into our HTF point of interest — the orange order block. That process is what builds a firm higher low, positioning price for continuation. Once price reaches the POI, I’ll wait for a lower-timeframe change in character / structure shift to realign with bullish momentum and target midterm and higher-timeframe highs. Until then — patience is key. Tracking remains the edge. Let smart money deliver. Let’s go.

GBPJPY - Bullish Bias | Accumulation-to-Expansion SetupGBPJPY continues to trade with a bullish higher-timeframe bias, visually respecting a HH / HL structure. Recent momentum legs were backed by strong volume, reinforcing smart money participation. Cycle analysis is clear: • Accumulation developed within a compressed range • Expansion confirmed directional intent • Price is now distributing back into accumulation territory This retracement is engineering liquidity, not invalidating structure. I’m focused on how price behaves as bears guide the market lower — specifically watching for descending corrective structure to deliver price into the orange HTF order block. Once price is fully worked into that zone, I’ll be patient for a lower-timeframe structure shift to confirm renewed buyer interest and continuation toward higher-timeframe objectives. No rush. No anticipation. Patience is key. Tracking is still the edge.

Momentum candles show strong participation and volume, confirming institutional interest during expansion. Zooming out to the cycle: • Price formed a tight accumulation range • Expansion followed, validating bullish intent • We are now seeing distribution pull price back into prior accumulation This pullback is constructive, not bearish. It’s part of the re-accumulation process. As price works lower, I’m allowing bears to print lower-high fragments into our key POI — the orange HTF order block. That behavior is what builds a higher low, setting the stage for continuation. Once price reaches the POI, I’ll be waiting for a lower-timeframe shift in market character / structure to realign with bullish momentum and target midterm and HTF highs. Until then — patience is key. Tracking remains the edge. Let the cycle complete. Let’s go.

GBPUSD - Bullish Continuation | HTF Cycle in PlayPrice remains bullish from a higher-timeframe perspective, and I’m attending a continuation scenario. We saw price take inducement and engineer liquidity, followed by a break in external structure, which then delivered price directly into our HTF order block of interest beneath the sweep. What actually unfolded here was a complete macro cycle: • Price accumulated bullish momentum within a clear accumulation range • Expansion followed, confirming smart money intent • Price then transitioned into distribution • From distribution, we observed manipulation back into prior accumulation territory This pullback is not weakness — it’s repositioning. From here, I’m tracking the microcycle completion (re-accumulation → confirmation → expansion) to extend delivery in the bullish direction. Until that cycle fully confirms, patience is key. No chasing. No forcing. Tracking is the edge. Letting smart money do what it does best — deliver. Let’s go.

ETH - Does THIS FRACTAL Look Familiar ??Hello Fellow Traders So on this chart, we see some very interesting developments. What we see is Ethereum making a parabolic increase during the bullish cycle, which lasts approximately the same amount of time, which is roughly around 4 - 5 months. We then see the start of a correction as soon as the parabolic curve is lost and the first three impulse waves down is characterized by the second point, (point B) being almost as high as the all-time high. And then the price further corrects to C, which is minus 40 - 50% of the total price. After which we then see a period of range trading almost characteristically seeing higher lows again and again. We do not see higher highs. We then see another impulse wave up over 2-3 months, marked by a 30% increase (upside correction): The price will likely spike, and then fall to lower lows as it did with the previous fractal, Where -60% puts us as $1600:

Nifty Analysis EOD – January 19, 2026 – Monday🟢 Nifty Analysis EOD – January 19, 2026 – Monday 🔴 Open = High: Bears Punch First, Bulls Hold the 25,500 Line! 🗞 Nifty Summary Nifty started the week with a cold shoulder, opening with a 45-point Gap Down and immediately printing an Open = High (OH) formation. The bears wasted no time, sliding the index another 145 points to test the psychological floor at 25,500. After hitting a low of 25,494.35, the market entered a 3-hour “snooze fest” within a tight 50-point range. A breakout attempt at 1:45 PM reached 25,630, but the recovery lacked legs, resulting in an 88-point pullback to close the day at 25,585.50 (-0.42%). 🛡 5 Min Intraday Chart with Levels 🛡 Intraday Walk The “Open = High” structure was a clear warning from the first tick—bears were in the driving seat. The 3-hour consolidation mid-day was like a movie interval that lasted too long, providing zero directional clues until the late-session spike. However, that spike at 1:45 PM was quickly sold into, proving that sellers are still lurking at the 25,630 ~ 25,650 resistance zone. Despite the red close, the 91-point lower wick shows that the 25,500 fort is being guarded closely. 📉 Daily Time Frame Chart with Intraday Levels 🕯 Daily Candle Breakdown Open: 25,653.10 High: 25,653.30 Low: 25,494.35 Close: 25,585.50 Change: −108.85 (−0.42%) 🏗️ Structure Breakdown Type: Bearish candle with a strong lower wick. Range: ≈ 159 points — moderate volatility. Body: ≈ 68 points — controlled selling pressure. Upper Wick: ≈ 0.2 points — Total Bearish Dominance at the open. Lower Wick: ≈ 91 points — Significant buyer defense at the 25,500 level. 📚 Interpretation The OH formation is a “no-nonsense” bearish signal. By closing near the mid-point of the day’s range, the market has left the door open for both sides. The long lower wick prevents a breakdown for now, but the lack of an upper wick confirms that bulls are struggling to even initiate a recovery at the open. 🕯 Candle Type Bearish Candle with Lower-Wick Support — Bears have the edge, but buyers are active at the 25,500 discount zone. 🛡 5 Min Intraday Chart ⚔️ Gladiator Strategy Update ATR: 210.22 IB Range: 125 → Big Market Structure: ImBalanced Trade Highlights: No Trade Trade Summary: The strategy strictly forbade an IB breakout or contra trade today. With a Big IB + Imbalanced structure, the risk of being “chopped” or caught in a fakeout was too high. Sitting on hands was the most profitable trade today. 🧱 Support & Resistance Levels Resistance Zones: 25650 (Immediate) 25690 25750 ~ 25780 Support Zones: 25550 25495 ~ 25475 25440 25375 ~ 25365 🧠 Final Thoughts “Discipline is the bridge between goals and accomplishment.” Tomorrow’s session looks dicey with the expiry looming. Will it be a “V-shape” recovery, more manipulation, or a bearish continuation? No one knows, and frankly, we don’t need to. We just need to stick to the strategy and follow the structure. If the IB is big again, I’m happy to stay a spectator. Better to miss a move than to lose capital on a “maybe.” ✏️ Disclaimer This is just my personal viewpoint.
