AAPL - Beware the Hanging Man pattern - 1DAAPL demonstrating a warning that selling pressure is mounting. Previous day would have been valid reversal pattern if todays candlestick closed lower, however it closed higher with another hanging man pattern. The appearance of these candlesticks near the top of a pattern usually demonstrates a bigger selloff to start the day, and then a rally back to the starting point. The long shadow indicating that selling pressure is beginning, which can be seen in the last 3 candlesticks. AAPL coming off a huge gain after both financials were solid, and the announcement of the split. Current pattern is bullish, and will continue, look out for a further confirmation of reversal.

XAUUSD Down?For the price action, candlestick analysis people out there, The weekly chart shows a Shooting star/Bearish Pin bar on the Weekly chart and a confirmation of it with the week just passed with a weekly candle close below the low of that Shooting star/pin bar. This is a pretty compelling reason to look for sells at least down to that red zone in my opinion. However, It is in a strong bullish uptrend, so it can really continue upwards. And when trading against trend it is hard to say how far we can go but I'm leaning towards looking for sells if the market can break through the red zone it is in, and the green zone as well. Trade at your own risk, Unfortunately, I am not a professional and this is not professional advice, maybe one day it will be, until then use your own analysis as well. PatiencePays

Step 1 – Daily Candlestick: Bullish Reversal On the daily chart, Bitcoin has printed a bullish engulfing/rejection candle, suggesting buyers have stepped in aggressively after a recent pullback. This is a strong reversal signal. Step 2 – Weekly Oscillators: Sell / Strong Sell The weekly oscillator rating is showing Sell / Strong Sell. This may appear bearish at first glance, but in the context of Bitcoin’s structural uptrend, it signals a short-term dip that may provide an attractive entry zone before momentum turns bullish again. Step 3 – Monthly Moving Averages: Strong Buy / Buy On the monthly chart, Bitcoin remains firmly in a Strong Buy / Buy rating above its key moving averages. This confirms that the long-term uptrend remains strong, and pullbacks should be treated as buying opportunities. ✅ Daily Candlestick → Bullish reversal ✅ Weekly Oscillator → Temporary weakness offering entry ✅ Monthly MAs → Long-term bullish structure Trade Idea: Traders may look for long entries on confirmation candles, with stops below the daily reversal low. Profit targets could be staged toward recent highs and key psychological levels like $75,000 and beyond.

How to See Fundamental Improvement in Technicals, $VRNT ExampleStocks that are forming bottoms right now are completing faster due to the improvement of their fundamentals in the current quarter. For example, NASDAQ:VRNT is moving out of the extreme dump by HFTs and retail groups. This is a common pattern that indicates shifting sentiment in a bottom formation. The candlesticks stairstep upward as Pro Traders get in the mix of Dark Pools buying at bargain prices. The largest Institutional investors who use Dark Pools to accumulate huge positions over time are the first to buy in a long-term uptrend, at bargain prices. It can be a very early signal, but these are the savviest fundamentals-driven investors in the market, so it pays to learn their footprints in stock charts.

EURUSD On Friday, EURUSD was unable to make new highs to close the month and instead pulled back to 1.1976x level, a level where we identified a "Shaven Bottom" candlestick. Also, on Friday there are "Shaven Top" candlesticks near the highs where we expect price to move back up and possibly to make new highs. April was a bullish month for this pair. We're anticipating a follow-through to the upside with this month's low near the 1.1920x level (marked red). That is all for now! Happy Trading folks! Cheers!

AFTERPAY (ASX:APT) potential shortAPT appears to be overextended to the long side and may be due for a slight correction. Reasons for this evaluation: --> Solid Bearish Engulfing candlestick pattern has occurred (Bearish reversal) Last 2 bearish engulfing patterns along with an overbought RSI resulted in a reversal. This indicates a higher probability trade setup. --> RSI is moderately overbought (As of the 22st @ 66.59) --> ATR is at record highs Each new major ATR high has result in some form of correction whether small (5-10%) or large (100%+) --> Other Large Cap stocks on the ASX such as BHP,RIO,FMG have also provided bearish signals in the last few weeks and an overall market downtrend can support this evaluation Reason that oppose the success of this evaluation: --> APT as a single stock has a tendency to follow fundamental analysis rather than technical This includes being extremely responsive to news catalysts, positive forecasts and more --> Positive news reports in regards to tech and software can positively effect APT **Any Supporting ideas that can improve the analysis of APT are all welcome

GBPUSD-Weekly Market Analysis-Aug20,Wk1GBPUSD is not seated at a region for an aggressive demand zone for buying opportunity, a bullish engulfing as a candlestick confirmation is important for this trend trading opportunity. The previous high at 1.3161 became an important resistance for observation for a counter-trend trade or sideway bounce trading opportunity. Trend Traders will be looking at that area too, which means if price head up to that region there is a stalling at that level is expected.

DAL 46.64 ShortFundamental Analysis With Airlines getting business back up and running in a slow fashion, the Airline industry as a whole has to return back to profitability. However it looks like investor confidence is still not bullish, and DAL isn't an exception to this case. For the short-run, there is still a bearish outlook for the industry considering the consistent Covid variants causing havoc. Technical Analysis Price volatility since last year month-to-month. Price is in a downtrend at resistance level of 46.64. Widening channel with no breakout creating lower lows in the price without higher highs. This is a bearish trend in the near term. MACD is flat near the zero line. RSI level at 51.80. A breakout here can signal a potential upward momentum, however confirmation with a breakout at 46.46 is also needed. Stochastics showing mixed readings so it's not valid. Fibonacci retracements showing lows have retraced to 23.6 while resistance at 61.8 level has remained steady. Candlesticks showing that every time there has been a push to the upside, a doji star has confirmed a reversal on several occassions.

USD/JPY Ichimoku cloudUSD/JPY have been difficult to understand lately. I've analysed USD/JPY through supply and demand zones. It's slightly above selling pressure, hence we're currently in a new demand zone. I've applied candlestick patterns to give an idea about the current trend. We can see that USD/JPY mainted it's position firmly.The reason for this have been bonds increasing which favours USD. Candlestick patterns and Ichimoku clouds may be analysed to better understand current direction. Above ichimoku cloud indicates bullish trend. Red cloud indicates selling pressure; green cloud buying pressure. Dotted red and green lines are supply and demand areas. Candlesticks above a green line indicate some support. Candlesticks below red line indicate selling pressure, coming from increased supply. I'm neutral, with slight favour to uptrend since daily candle recently came out of ichimoku cloud, which we know is bullish, furthermore, two 4H bullish engulfing candlesticks from yesterday. Orange areas indicate resistance, once we enter into the grey area, we may get better understanding of the direction. If the candlesticks makes it to thee green cloud and stays above them, then USD/JPY will be making a push to higher highs. Note: analysis is provided to better understand the recently confusing USD/JPY trend.

BTC Bull Flag: Candlesticks Are Still Inside the PatternCandlesticks hit the 51700 are just below my green resistance box then came back down. But it is still within the range of the bull flag, so it can continue the trend within this pattern. I am still pretty much bullish with the prices as the EMA ribbon acts as support for the candlesticks. Beside that, the ATR Trailing Stoploss shows a buy signal and this is backed up with the stochastics reaching the oversold lines white the candles hit the bull flag's support lines. I am still looking for the prices to hit up until the 52000 region or the green resistance box but always be ready for prices to go down as well. I am open for feedback, suggestions and advice. Thanks!

Dark Pool Buy Zones for Trading Momentum or VelocityDark Pool buy zones, identified with Relational Technical Analysis of the candlestick patterns and where they form in the long-term trend, along with indicators that reveal large-lot activity, are the key to preparing early for momentum to velocity runs for swing trading, position trading and even for planning long-term investments. NYSE:CHWY is working on a bottom, finally basing and now starting to test the bottom completion level. This can be a strong resistance level where Pro Traders who started a swing trade from the lows are likely to take profits. Often we see a sideways action develop at this level, the lows of which are usually confined by the support level built on the way up. This would be the level to watch for the next buy entry signal. If it consolidates narrowly or briefly, then there is potential for a momentum swing trade. If it platforms a little wider but within the last support level, then a position trade entry can develop.

Swing Trade Patterns: $NKE ExampleNYSE:NKE stock has a 2-day resting pattern and then a candlestick buy entry signal that is slightly longer than its average price gains in a single day. Most Volume Oscillators are not at the top of the chart yet. Flow of funds indicators indicates money flowing into this stock. The higher line is the bottom completion level for this short-term bottom. The resistance is moderate for a swing trade, but the stock could break through if momentum to speculative buying continues.

Pre-Earnings Run in $UPSTNASDAQ:UPST has been running up speculatively after completing its bottom. It has mostly retail groups and smaller funds holding so that is why the stock has up and down days in an irrational trend pattern often. HFTs are in the mix regularly inspiring the speculation. The company reports Monday of next week. Looks like Pro Traders used a swing trading earnings strategy and some took profits ahead of the report. The stock has a low percentage of the shares held by institutions, so emotional trading candlestick patterns are problematic at times. It's important to buy and sell with the Pro Trader patterns in speculative stocks.

NVDA, AMD Bottom FormationsNVDA continues to work on its bottom. The Reversal Candlestick in October signaled the end of this stock's correction. The stock has plenty of growth for the future. The red line is the bottom completion level for this chart, a strong resistance level. There's strong point gain potential when the current sideways action breaks out upward. Volume-based indicators are showing slow but steady hidden accumulation. If the current sideways action breaks down, support from the buy zone is quite close. --- AMD is waffling around the U-Shaped Bottom's completion level, which is usually a quick short-term bottom. Once it can sustain within the prior trading range, it can start to develop a range that can then compress and break out. So, it has a couple of areas to work on. Meanwhile, it has sufficient past swing-style runs to be considered for a swing trading watchlist when the short-term bottom completes. If it breaks down to retest the bottom lows, beware of the support at the buy zone.

Preparing for Earnings Season: ESPRStocks that are reporting earnings in 3 to 4 weeks can be monitored for pre-earnings runs. ESPR had momentum runs recently, as marked by the candlestick patterns within the green rectangles in this chart. A shift of sentiment can be seen in the bottoming pattern with Accumulation/Distribution indicators (the area between the blue rectangles). Often, when an earnings report is going to be great, then the company tries to leak it out subtly. IF earnings were to be negative or below expectations, then CEOs would be warning. No need to go looking for analyst recommendations, everything you need is in the charts. Focusing on the charts, rather than on the commentary around the market, will help you find the stocks that will be lucrative for trading this earnings season.
