Bitcoin defends its territory as 2026 hits!Happy New Year. I hope your trading is successful going forwards.
I honestly believe that everything you need to be a consistently profit taker in the markets, is available right here. In moments gone by, I have paid some big subscriptions fees to courses, AI Apps etc, stuff that did not stack-up or offer any use except torment me for the crazy high price.
This video is not financial advice. It's infomercial only. Hopefully entertaining as well.
It's me live trading on 1st January 2026. I'm living in one of those 1st time zones. Its the NY session and last one for the 1st quarter century.
This is what I coin dynamic trading, it emphasis is not only 1 second and 5 second charts but toggling through all the important TF's. Patterns emerge, and learning market structure can be more readily understood as the patterns and dynamic graphics occur faster.
Is Smart Money Reloading Gold After the Latest Liquidity Sweep?🟡 XAUUSD – Intraday Smart Money Plan | by Ryan_TitanTrader (30/12)
📈 Market Context
Gold remains structurally supported on higher timeframes, but current price action reflects controlled volatility and liquidity engineering rather than trend continuation.
With markets reacting to fresh U.S. data expectations, USD yield fluctuations, and ongoing geopolitical uncertainty, Gold continues to attract safe-haven interest — yet extended intraday ranges suggest Smart Money is actively positioning rather than chasing price.
Recent headlines around Fed rate path uncertainty and mixed U.S. macro signals keep Gold bid on pullbacks, while thinning liquidity into the year-end session increases the likelihood of stop hunts and engineered traps on both sides of the range.
Smart Money behavior favors drawing liquidity first, confirming structure later — not clean breakouts.
🔎 Technical Framework – Smart Money Structure (1H)
Current Phase:
HTF bullish structure with short-term corrective compression
Key Idea:
Expect liquidity interaction at discount (4320–4318) or reaction from internal supply (4465–4467) before any sustained displacement.
Structural Notes:
HTF bullish BOS remains valid
Prior CHoCH triggered a corrective leg
Price is compressing under bearish trendline
Discount zone aligns with potential accumulation
Buy-side liquidity rests above internal highs
Sell-side liquidity recently probed and absorbed
💧 Liquidity Zones & Triggers
• 🟢 BUY GOLD 4320 – 4318 | SL 4310
• 🔴 SELL GOLD 4465 – 4467 | SL 4475
🧠 Institutional Flow Expectation
Liquidity sweep → MSS / CHoCH → BOS → displacement → FVG / OB retest → expansion
🎯 Execution Rules
🟢 BUY GOLD 4320 – 4318 | SL 4310
Rules:
✔ Liquidity grab into discount zone
✔ Bullish MSS / CHoCH on M5–M15
✔ Clear upside BOS with impulsive displacement
✔ Entry via bullish FVG fill or refined demand OB
Targets:
4360
4400
4465 – extension if USD weakens and risk sentiment deteriorates
🔴 SELL GOLD 4465 – 4467 | SL 4475
Rules:
✔ Reaction into internal supply / premium imbalance
✔ Bearish MSS / CHoCH on LTF
✔ Downside BOS with momentum shift
✔ Entry via bearish FVG refill or supply OB
Targets:
4430
4385
4320 – extension if USD strengthens or yields rise
⚠️ Risk Notes
Compression favors false breakouts
No execution without MSS + BOS confirmation
Expect volatility during U.S. session
Reduce risk around USD yield spikes or Fed-related headlines
Thin liquidity amplifies stop hunts
📍 Summary
Gold remains bullish by structure, but today’s edge lies in patience, not prediction.
Smart Money is likely to engineer liquidity before committing:
• A sweep into 4320–4318 may reload longs toward 4400–4465, or
• A reaction near 4465–4467 could fade price back into discount.
Let liquidity move first. Let structure confirm.
Smart Money waits — retail reacts. ⚡️

USDJPY - Trendline Break Setup at ResistancePrice is currently trading into a strong resistance zone around 156.90 – 157.00, which has previously acted as a key supply area. The market is respecting an ascending trendline support, indicating short-term bullish structure; however, price is now showing hesitation at resistance.
This area presents a high-probability rejection zone. A bearish reaction from resistance could trigger a pullback, with the first break expected below the trendline support. If the trendline fails, downside momentum may accelerate toward the 155.80 – 156.00 support zone, which aligns with prior demand and structure lows.
Scenario:
• Rejection at resistance → break of trendline → bearish continuation
• Potential downside target near 156.00 / 155.80
• Invalidation if price closes firmly above 157.00, opening room for further upside
Bias: Short-term bearish at resistance
Key Levels:
• Resistance: 156.90 – 157.00
• Support: 155.80 – 156.00
⚠️ Wait for confirmation (rejection candle / structure break) before entry. Risk management is essential.
Gold Is Not Done Yet — H1 Structure Is Rebuilding for a BreakoutHello everyone,
Intraday trading: Increase
📌 SET UP 1. Timming Sell Zone
XAUUSD SELL ZONE: 4463 - 4466
💰 Take Profit(TP): 4460 - 4455
❎ Stoploss(SL): 4470

❎ Stoploss(SL): 4259
Note capital management to ensure account safety
On the H1 timeframe, the key focus right now is not the prior sell-off, but how gold is rebuilding structure after completing a full corrective cycle and reclaiming key dynamic levels. The chart clearly shows a transition from impulsive downside into controlled recovery and re-accumulation.
After the breakdown from the rising channel, gold completed a five-wave bearish impulse into the 4,265–4,280 support zone, where selling pressure was finally absorbed. This marked a structural low, followed by a clean shift in behavior: price stopped expanding lower and began forming higher lows, signaling the end of the markdown phase.
From there, gold entered a corrective bullish sequence, respecting the short-term ascending support trendline. Price has now reclaimed EMA34 and is pressing into the EMA89, which currently aligns with the 4,380–4,400 resistance zone. This confluence makes the current area a decision zone, not a random pause.
Structurally, this move fits a classic ABC recovery:
(A) rebound from the lows
(B) higher-low pullback, holding above support
(C) current push into resistance and EMA confluence
Importantly, this advance has been orderly, not vertical. Pullbacks are shallow, momentum is controlled, and price is holding above prior reaction highs — all characteristics of strength rebuilding, not distribution.
Key levels to watch:
Immediate resistance: 4,380–4,400 (EMA89 + prior support turned resistance)
Bullish confirmation: Acceptance above 4,405–4,420 would open the door for a continuation move toward 4,515–4,520, as projected on the chart
Key support: 4,350–4,365 (trendline + EMA34 area)
Invalidation: A clean breakdown below 4,330 would weaken the bullish recovery structure
Until proven otherwise, gold is not in a bearish continuation phase. It is transitioning from correction into potential expansion, with the next directional clue coming from how price behaves at the current resistance cluster.
Wishing you all effective and disciplined trading.
EURUSD Under Structural StressHello Traders,
On the H1 timeframe, EURUSD is currently trading in a corrective-to-bearish structure after failing to hold above the previously marked resistance zone. Price was repeatedly rejected from this supply area, confirming it as an active distribution zone rather than a continuation base.
Following the rejection, price expanded lower and is now rotating toward the lower range, approaching a clearly defined support zone. The recent downside impulse shows increasing bearish pressure, suggesting that sellers remain in control in the short term.
This support zone now represents a critical decision area. If price stabilizes and holds above this level, a corrective rebound toward the prior intraday targets becomes possible. Such a move would be classified as a pullback within a broader range, not an immediate trend reversal.
However, failure to hold this support — especially with acceptance below the zone — would signal further structural weakness. In that scenario, downside continuation becomes the dominant path, invalidating any short-term bullish recovery expectations.
From a structural perspective, EURUSD is currently not offering a clean entry. Price is transitioning between resistance rejection and support testing. The next directional move will be defined by whether the market defends this support or breaks through it with conviction.
At this stage, patience is required. Let price confirm its reaction at the support zone before committing to directional bias.

SELLside Liquidity got Cleaned Below...VANTAGE:NAS100 price is trading below the major supply band at 25,800 – 26,000.
This zone is the origin of the last impulsive sell-off and remains unmitigated supply.
As long as price stays below 26,000, the higher-timeframe bias remains bearish 🐼
On H1, market structure confirms this bias:
• Lower highs
• Weak reactions from demand
• Repeated failures below supply
The recent sell-off cleaned sell-side liquidity below 25,300, followed by a sharp reaction.
This move is not accumulation.
It is a liquidity grab followed by a corrective pullback.
🦈 Scalp
While the higher-timeframe bias remains bearish, a short-term scalp long 🦖 is possible only after a clear rejection from OG demand zones on lower timeframes.
• Sell-side liquidity already taken
• Execution strictly based on M15 / M5 / M3
Scalp activation criteria (OG Concept) on M15 / M5 / M3:
• Price taps OG demand zone
• Clear rejection from the OG zone (wick + displacement)
• Momentum shift with follow-through
• Failure to continue lower after the liquidity sweep
Scalp plan:
• Long only after OG zone rejection is confirmed
• Target: 25,480 – 25,520 (≈ 25,500 supply)
• This move is reactional, not a trend reversal
📌 No OG rejection = no trade.
🔴 Primary Scenario
Main idea: SELL the pullback
• Key supply zone: 25,480 – 25,520
• This zone aligns with:
• H1 supply
• Prior breakdown area
• Premium pricing within the current range
Execution logic:
• Price reaches supply
• Momentum weakens
• Rejection / failure to hold above the zone
• Continuation to the downside
Targets:
• 25,300 → partial profit
• 25,250 → liquidity retest
• 25,180 – 25,200 → extension
❌ Invalidation
• M15 close above 25,550
• Acceptance above supply invalidates the short idea
🧠 Smart Money Logic (OG Concept)
• Panic sell triggers liquidity
• Sell-side gets cleaned
• Price is pushed back into premium
• Retail chases the bounce
• Smart money distributes into supply
Two-phase play:
• Reaction long → into supply
• Distribution short → continuation dump
Bias remains sell-side while price trades below higher-timeframe supply.
Why You Need to Know Elliott WavesThis is an introductory article in a series on Elliott Waves, designed to explain the basics of the theory and how to apply it in practice.
We will cover the key points you’ll encounter while learning this theory and developing your trading skills.
Definition
Elliott Wave Theory is a method of technical analysis that explains price movements through repeating wave patterns that reflect crowd psychology.
Learning
Like anything new, learning this requires dedicated time. It involves identifying waves, counting them, and spotting corrections - a process that can be very engaging. You won’t immediately see waves and subwaves or find the perfect entry points. Be patient and give your mind time to grasp the concepts. Over time, recognizing familiar structures on charts becomes so absorbing that you won’t want to stop analyzing.
Technical Level
Anyone can learn this theory, regardless of their starting skill level. Prior knowledge of technical analysis is helpful but not required. Elliott Wave Theory offers a different perspective on the market and, for some, can become the primary way to interpret price movements. Since it is a popular method, you have many tools on TradingView for analysis and forecasting.
Reducing Noise
Another key advantage is reducing unnecessary information. When working with charts, you don’t need to overload your mind with news or market data. Chart analysis can reveal more than external reports. Imagine trying to track multiple markets across exchanges and countries - the context could be overwhelming. Elliott Waves help simplify this process. You can analyze independently, relying solely on the chart.
Universality
With this knowledge, you can trade any instrument - futures, options, indices, stocks, gold, silver, or cryptocurrencies. Some assets may require more effort to discern the wave structure, while others show clear patterns immediately.
Everyday Applications
Wave patterns can appear everywhere: price charts for household goods, car parts, flu incidence, or livestock growth. Life itself is a series of waves - rises and falls, successes and setbacks. Recognizing these patterns can help you understand and anticipate changes in many areas.
Mistakes
Mistakes are inevitable. You cannot avoid them. Whatever strategy you choose, whatever experience you have, Elliott Wave Theory will help you learn from them, and over time, your errors will become less significant.
Timeframe
This approach works on any timeframe - minute, hourly, or weekly. Smaller timeframes are useful for trading, while larger timeframes reveal trends that can span years. You can anticipate market behavior and understand economic or political trends locally and globally. Local patterns are always linked to the bigger picture.
Human Weaknesses
Fear and greed are obstacles every trader must overcome. Knowledge and recognition of patterns provide a foundation to regulate behavior. Without this foundation, achieving goals is difficult - whether in trading or in other areas of life.
Discipline
Discipline is essential. Even if you are naturally unsystematic, accurately identifying waves and choosing entries at the right time and place will gradually develop discipline and prevent random trading.
Calmness
By mastering your weaknesses and developing discipline, you will gain calmness - a critical skill for any trader. You will understand when the market may reverse, anticipate corrections, and know the general direction. While others panic, you will remain calm and act confidently.
Money
Elliott Wave Theory helps you preserve and grow your capital, turning the waves on the chart into financial waves in your life. The key is consistent effort and dedication, just as in any other discipline.
Magic
This may seem like magic, but it isn’t. This is the result of careful work and analysis, not magic. Another important point: if this theory did not work, it would have long been forgotten. On the contrary, the most successful traders use wave analysis in their market strategies. Elliott Wave Theory is a “superpower” that can surprise both others and yourself.
Conclusion
Elliott Wave Theory is not a magic solution and offers no absolute guarantees. It is a tool that must be learned and applied correctly. Experience and accurate wave identification are essential, and it can be combined with other technical analysis methods.
Perhaps this is the gold you’ve been searching for.
Future articles will show live examples of how it works.
It will be very interesting, so stay tuned and don’t miss out.

S&P 500 - Elliott Wave Count - 01/01/26The S&P 500 (SPX) could be completing an Elliott - Impulse wave up from the April 2025 bottom.
The Minor wave 5 up from the late November bottom could be an Elliott wave - Ending Diagonal Triangle. If so, it could complete on 01/02/26 or 01/05/26.
A major peak could be made in that time zone.
Happy New Year!
