#008 NEW DCA USDCAD Buy Up TrendI bought USDCAD just because I saw that it has been trending.
No other reasons. I think sometimes no reason but because it is trending is a very good reason.
Just like duolingo, godaddy, marriott, tesla. Don't question. No need for question.
Obviously if something is going to go upwards and it has been going upwards, plus being strongly going up, you would want to take a piece out of it. You dont question why its going up. You just grab that wall flower and begin peddling. Once the trend dies, and you give it logic, you kill yourself with the logic when the logic doesn't work out the way you thought.
So, don't think. theres nothing to think about.

Mastering RSI: The Complete and CORRECT Way to Trade ItThe Relative Strength Index (RSI) is one of the most popular and widely used indicators in trading.
Despite its prevalence, many traders misuse it or are unaware of its full potential. RSI isn't just about identifying overbought and oversold conditions; when applied correctly, it becomes a robust tool for trend confirmation, reversals, momentum acceleration, and much more.
This guide explores how to unlock the full power of RSI and avoid common pitfalls.
What Is RSI?
Developed by J. Welles Wilder Jr., RSI measures the speed and magnitude of price changes over a specified period. It oscillates between 0 and 100, with the following traditional zones:
Above 70: Indicates overbought conditions, where the price may reverse or consolidate.
Below 30: Indicates oversold conditions, where the price may rebound or reverse upward.
However, it’s important to note that RSI above 70 or below 30 can sometimes indicate trend acceleration rather than an immediate reversal—especially in strong trending markets, discussed in #6
The real reversal signal comes after RSI crosses back below 70 (for overbought) or back above 30 (for oversold). Understanding this distinction is critical to using RSI effectively.
1. Overbought and Oversold Conditions
The classic use of RSI involves identifying overbought and oversold levels:
Overbought: RSI rises above 70 and then drops back below it, signaling potential selling pressure.
Oversold: RSI falls below 30 and then moves back above it, indicating potential buying interest.
These signals are more effective when combined with tools like support/resistance levels or trendlines.
2. Centerline Crossover
The 50-level on RSI is a reliable trend indicator:
Above 50: Bullish momentum dominates.
Below 50: Bearish momentum dominates.
Use these crossovers to confirm trends:
Enter long trades when RSI is above 50.
Enter short trades when RSI is below 50.
3. Divergences
Divergences between RSI and price can signal potential trend reversals:
Bullish Divergence: Price makes lower lows, but RSI forms higher lows.
Bearish Divergence: Price makes higher highs, but RSI forms lower highs.
These divergences highlight weakening momentum and often precede reversals.
4. RSI Patterns
RSI can form recognizable chart patterns, such as triangles, head-and-shoulders, or double tops/bottoms. These patterns often precede price moves:
Triangles: A breakout on RSI often signals a strong price move.
Double Tops : A topping pattern on RSI warns of potential price declines.
5. Failure Swings
Failure swings occur when RSI enters an extreme zone (above 70 or below 30) but fails to sustain momentum and reverses. This is a strong reversal signal and can precede significant price moves:
Bullish Failure Swing:
RSI dips below 30.
It rises but dips again, staying above 30.
RSI breaks its previous high, signaling a bullish reversal.
Bearish Failure Swing:
RSI rises above 70.
It falls but rises again, staying below 70.
RSI breaks its previous low, signaling a bearish reversal.
How to trade it:
For a bullish failure swing, enter long when RSI confirms the higher low and breaks above the previous swing high.
For a bearish failure swing, enter short when RSI confirms the lower high and breaks below the previous swing low.
6. Momentum Acceleration Strategy
While RSI is traditionally used for spotting overbought and oversold conditions, it can also identify momentum acceleration during strong trends:
Above 70: In strong uptrends, when RSI rises above 70 and stays there, it signals upward acceleration, indicating buyers are in control.
Below 30: In strong downtrends, when RSI dips below 30 and stays there, it signals downward acceleration, with sellers driving the market lower.
How to trade it:
In uptrends, treat RSI staying above 70 as a sign of strength and look for pullbacks to enter long positions.
In downtrends, use brief rebounds as opportunities to short while RSI remains below 30.
7. Multi-Timeframe Strategy
Analyzing RSI across multiple timeframes enhances accuracy:
Use the higher timeframe (e.g., daily) to identify the overall trend.
Use the lower timeframe (e.g., 1-hour) to time trade entries.
Example:
If RSI on the daily chart is above 50 (bullish trend), look for hourly RSI dips below 30 to enter long trades.
If RSI on the daily chart is below 50 (bearish trend), wait for hourly RSI to reach overbought levels above 70 to short.
Tips for Advanced RSI Use:
Adjust RSI Settings: Shorter periods (e.g., 7) make RSI more sensitive, while longer periods (e.g., 21) smooth out signals for longer-term trends.
Combine RSI with Other Tools: Use RSI alongside moving averages, Fibonacci retracements, or Candlesticks.
Risk Management: Always pair RSI signals with a stop-loss strategy to manage risk effectively.
PRO TIP: As I like to say "Trade the price, not the indicator."
Use RSI as a confirmation tool, not the main signal.
For example, a price reversal from resistance or a bullish engulfing candle becomes far more reliable when backed by RSI signals.
Conclusion
RSI is far more versatile than many traders realize. While it’s traditionally used for identifying overbought and oversold levels, strategies like momentum acceleration and failure swings add depth to its utility. By combining RSI with centerline crossovers, divergences, multi-timeframe analysis, and chart patterns, traders can pinpoint entries, reversals, and momentum shifts with more precision and trade more confidently.
Key Takeaways:
- RSI staying above 70 or below 30 in trends signals momentum acceleration.
- Failure swings offer reliable reversal signals when RSI breaks key levels.
- Combining RSI strategies with other tools and proper risk management leads to more confidence
USDCAD Wave Analysis 16 December 2024
- USDCAD reversed from support zone
- Likely to rise to resistance level 1.4300
USDCAD currency pair recently reversed up pivotal support level 1.4140, former resistance level which reversed the price sharply at the end of November.
The upward reversal from the support level 1.4140 started the active impulse wave 5 of the higher order impulse wave (3) from September.
Given the clear daily uptrend, USDCAD currency pair can be expected to rise further to the next resistance level 1.4300.
AUDUSD Wave Analysis 16 December 2024
- AUDUSD reversed from support zone
- Likely to rise to resistance level 0.6400
AUDUSD currency pair recently reversed up from the support area set between the strong support level 0.6350 (which has been reversing the price from 2023, lower border of the weekly sideways price range) and the lower weekly Bollinger Band.
The upward reversal from the support zone stopped the previous impulse waves 3 and (3).
Given the oversold weekly Stochastic and the strength of the support level 0.6350, AUDUSD currency pair can be expected to rise further to the next resistance level 0.6400.
The key is whether the price can be maintained above 3644.71
Hello, traders.
If you "Follow", you can always get new information quickly.

Have a nice day today.
-------------------------------------
(ETHUSDT 1W chart)
The key is whether the price can be maintained by rising above the upper section of the HA-High indicator box on the 1M chart.
If not, it will eventually show a downward trend.
The reason is that the StochRSI indicator is maintained at the 100 point and the StochRSI EMA indicator is approaching the 100 point.
Since the StochRSI EMA indicator has not touched the 100 point so far, it will eventually show a downward trend.
However, since the StochRSI indicator cannot predict how much fluctuation will occur, you should refer to the support and resistance points drawn on the 1M, 1W, and 1D charts.
Therefore,
1st: 3438.16-3644.71
2nd: 3265.0-3321.30
The point to watch is whether it can receive support near the 1st and 2nd above.
If the StochRSI indicator is maintained at the 100 point for a long time, you should keep in mind that even if a small decline occurs, the decline in the StochRSI indicator is likely to be quite large.
In other words, it means that there are cases where it pretends to decline and moves sideways and then rises.
To determine this, it is good to refer to the movement of the OBV indicator.

Thank you for reading to the end.
I hope you have a successful transaction.

- Big picture
I used TradingView's INDEX chart to check the entire range of BTC.
(BTCUSD 12M chart)
Looking at the big picture, it seems to have been maintaining an upward trend following a pattern since 2015.
In other words, it is a pattern that maintains a 3-year upward trend and faces a 1-year downward trend.
Accordingly, the upward trend is expected to continue until 2025.
-
(LOG chart)
Looking at the LOG chart, you can see that the upward trend is decreasing.
Accordingly, the 46K-48K range is expected to be a very important support and resistance range from a long-term perspective.
Therefore, I expect that we will not see prices below 44K-48K in the future.

The Fibonacci ratio on the left is the Fibonacci ratio of the uptrend that started in 2015.
That is, the Fibonacci ratio of the first wave of the uptrend.
The Fibonacci ratio on the right is the Fibonacci ratio of the uptrend that started in 2019.
Therefore, this Fibonacci ratio is expected to be used until 2026.
-
No matter what anyone says, the chart has already been created and is already moving.
It is up to you how to view and respond to it.
Since there is no support or resistance point when the ATH is updated, the Fibonacci ratio can be appropriately utilized.
However, although the Fibonacci ratio is useful for chart analysis, it is ambiguous to use it as a support and resistance role.
The reason is that the user must directly select the important selection points required to create the Fibonacci.
Therefore, it can be useful for chart analysis because it is expressed differently depending on how the user specifies the selection point, but it can be seen as ambiguous for use in trading strategies.

Gold bearish movementGold is bearish now.
After BAT Pattern completion (exactly on relevant PRZ) it is started to model the XA wave with Elliot 5 waves. it is completed for now although it would continue due to strong move. because of positive divergence we would have a bullish correction up then it will continue downward to the BAT target (AX wave model). and it will meet the end of the long term channel which can be seen here.
3MINDIA - Nice Reversal?RSI is looking strong and closing is also above 20EMA Band.
Expecting it to fall a bit to normalize the RSI, which CAN BE the right time to enter.
For stop loss, closing below 20EMA band or previous swing low can be used. It is purely individual study and choice.
Currently market is very volatile and we also have earning of 3MINDIA in coming week, which can contradict my study and analysis. Hence do your own analysis and act accordingly.
Strictly follow Risk Reward management and strict SL is necessary.
All Targets achieved on PSO!PSO Call was initiated on 25 Oct'24 at the breakout of 225, however, could not be published due to unpaid account.
78% gains as per the projections have been achieved within 2 months.
Swing traders should close their trades here, however, those wish to ride the trend can still hold it with Stop loss at 288
OGDC all Targets achieved !Initiated a call in Sep'24 for potential Target of 190 on the breakout of symmetrical triangle and breakout of previous LH which was achieved on 8 Nov'24. given swing traders approx 35% gain within 2 months.
The stock is likely to continue its bullish momentum and might test its first resistance at 244 and second resistance at 265. However, those who wish to ride should place SL @ 177 so that all gains are not eroded.
Bitcoin’s bullish break generates fresh long setup Bitcoin futures have opened the new week on the front foot, talking out the former record highs at $105325 before extending the move as Asian markets come online.
RSI (14) has broken its downtrend while MACD looks like it may crossover from below, suggesting bullish momentum may be building again.
While the price signal is definitive, we’ve not seen pickup in volumes accompanying the bullish break, making the preference to wait for a retest of $105325 before initiating long positions, rather than simply buying around these levels.
If there was pullback and bounce from $105325, it would improve conviction in the setup, allowing for longs to be established above the level with a tight stop beneath for protection.
If the trade were to move in your favour, the preference would be to wait for a topping pattern or signal to determine whether to hold, take profit or reverse the move.
Octopus is attractive to Buy at these levels Offering 117% GainsThe stock after breaking out its accumulation zone enters the bullish territory and printed a Cup and Handle formation on weekly chart. The stock has successfully broke out the Cup and Handle but went into consolidation after posting bearish divergence. Currently, retraced till 71.8% as per FIB levels and being accumulated for another bullish ride where it can double the investment within next 6 months.
One can start accumulate atleast 25% allocation at these levels with SL at 55. Confirmation to the Target price will be given once weekly closing above 100 is given by the stock where it will validate the journey towards final target price of 165 which is the projection of Cup and Handle formation.
RNDR Chart AnalysisLets break it down:
Structure and Price Action:
**Rising Wedge Formation**:
The chart shows a **rising wedge**, which is typically a bearish reversal pattern. Price is currently trading near the lower boundary of the wedge, increasing the likelihood of a breakdown.
**Red Resistance Zone**:
The price rejected the key **red resistance zone** between $10.0–$11.0, indicating strong selling pressure.
**Higher Lows**:
Despite rejection at resistance, the price has maintained **higher lows**, signaling bullish attempts to sustain the uptrend.
**Bearish Momentum Developing**:
Price is now testing the rising support line. A breakdown here could lead to a reversal toward lower levels.
Support and Resistance:
**Immediate Resistance**: $10.0–$11.0 (red resistance zone where sellers are dominant).
**Key Support Levels**:
$8.50: Rising support line and psychological level.
$7.50–$7.00: Green order block area where buyers previously stepped in.
Below $7.00: Strong support near $5.50–$5.00 (historical support zone).
Indicators:
Moving Averages (EMA 20/50/100/200):
Price remains above the **EMA 20** ($8.96) and EMA 50 ($7.82), showing bullish bias in the short-term trend.
The **EMA 100/200** at $7.03 and $6.68, respectively, provide stronger long-term support.
Money Flow Index (MFI):
**58.08** indicates neutral momentum but leaning slightly toward bullish, suggesting buyers still have some control.
Stochastic RSI:
The Stochastic RSI is currently near **oversold territory** (11.56), suggesting a potential bounce from support levels.
However, if price fails to hold support, oversold conditions can persist, leading to further downside.
Volume:
Volume during the recent move upward has been declining, suggesting weakening bullish momentum.
Watch for a volume spike on any breakout or breakdown to confirm direction.
Pattern Analysis:
The **rising wedge** pattern signals caution as it leans bearish. A breakdown below the wedge's lower trendline would confirm a reversal.
Rejection at the red resistance zone strengthens the bearish outlook unless bulls regain control.
Probabilistic Outlook:
Bearish Breakdown (Primary Scenario):
If price breaks below the rising support line (~$8.50), bearish momentum will increase.
Key downside targets:
**First Target**: $7.50 (order block zone).
**Second Target**: $7.00–$6.50 (EMA 100/200 levels).
**Third Target**: $5.50–$5.00 (major historical support).
Bullish Continuation (Alternate Scenario):
If price reclaims $10.0–$11.0 with strong volume, the uptrend will resume.
Key upside targets:
**First Resistance**: $11.50.
**Second Resistance**: $12.00–$12.50 (previous highs).
Key Signals to Watch:
A breakdown below the rising support line (~$8.50) = **Bearish confirmation**.
A breakout above $10.0–$11.0 resistance = **Bullish continuation**.
Volume spike during breakout or breakdown will confirm the move.
Conclusion:
The chart shows a **rising wedge** with weakening bullish momentum, increasing the probability (~65–70%) of a bearish breakdown. A decisive break below $8.50 would target lower levels at $7.50 and beyond. Conversely, a breakout above $10.0–$11.0 could invalidate the wedge and continue the uptrend toward $12.00.
EXIDE offers more than 55% gains on prevailing price LevelsThe stock is in Bullish Momentum, for those, willing to take secure trades, should enter at a price above 1166 for the Target of 1458 potentially can make 25% gain on these levels.
However, anyone wish to take calculated risks, can enter the trade now with the SL of 775, for TP1 of 1101, TP2 of 1264 and TP3 of 1427 with upside potential over 55%
Example of how to select a volatility period
Hello, traders.
If you "Follow", you can always get new information quickly.
Please also click "Boost".
Have a nice day today.
-------------------------------------
The date that I am talking about as a volatility period refers to a period in which there may be a movement that may change the trend.
In other words, it means that there is a high possibility of creating a new wave as the volatility period passes.
Basically, the volatility period is expressed as an issue regarding the coin (token) or a global issue, but the volatility period that I am talking about is expressed by the support and resistance points and trend lines drawn on the chart.
-
The support and resistance points refer to the points drawn on the 1M, 1W, and 1D charts.
In other words, they refer to the points of the HA-Low, HA-High, BW(0), BW(100), and OBV indicators displayed on each chart.
When indicating support and resistance points, indicators connected to the current price candle are unconditionally drawn.
Also, indicators that are not expressed up to the current price candle are drawn starting from the one with the longest horizontal line.
Among indicators that are not expressed up to the current candle, horizontal lines expressed less than 5 candles are not drawn if possible.
If there are support and resistance lines that are expressed too closely, the support and resistance lines that are closest to the current candle are used.
-
The StochRSI indicator is used to draw a trend line.
When the StochRSI indicator enters the oversold or overbought zone and reverses, that is, when a peak is created, those points are connected and expressed.
Therefore, the peak created in the 20~80 range of the StochRSI indicator is ignored.
Therefore, the trend line is created by connecting the high and low points of the StochRSI indicator.
However, the high point connection line connects the opening price of the falling candle.
If there is no bearish candle at the peak of the StochRSI indicator, move to the right and use the first bearish candle.
When drawing the trendline for the first time, it is better to draw it from the vicinity where the current wave started.
If the StochRSI indicator has two peaks in the overbought or oversold area, use both when it leaves the overbought or oversold area and then re-enters it.
Otherwise, use only one peak at a time.
-
Draw support and resistance points and trendlines on each chart.
-
Find and mark points where trend lines or support and resistance points intersect at least two times.
The importance is determined in the order of trend lines drawn on the 1M chart > trend lines drawn on the 1W chart > trend lines drawn on the 1D chart.
Therefore, in order to express a period of volatility with a trend line drawn on the 1D chart, there must be at least two intersecting points.
In other words, there must be at least two intersecting points when indicating a period of volatility, such as when trend lines intersect each other or when trend lines intersect support and resistance points.
In addition, support and resistance points are also important in the order of 1M > 1W > 1D charts, so when they intersect with support and resistance points, they are selected according to this importance.
-
Then, if you hide the trend line, you will complete the chart showing the period of volatility.
-
When drawing for the first time,
1. When indicating support and resistance points, if you do not understand the arrangement of candles, it may be difficult to select.
2. It may be difficult to select the peak and candle of the StochRSI indicator.
3. It may be difficult to select which intersection point to select when indicating the volatility period.
Since you cannot get used to everything at once, it is recommended to draw and observe one by one and try to solve the difficulty of the next step once you get used to it.
-
The StochRSI indicator on this chart is an indicator whose formula has been changed from the basic StochRSI indicator.
Therefore, if possible, it is recommended to use the StochRSI indicator on my chart.
If you use your own StochRSI indicator,
Settings: 14, 7, 3, 3 (RSI, Stoch, K, D)
Source value: ohlc4
If you change the values above, it will be expressed similarly.
-
Thank you for reading to the end.
I wish you successful trading.

Crypto Insights: Will XRP Price Hold Above $2 After South Korea’
XRP, the native cryptocurrency of Ripple, experienced a rollercoaster ride in recent weeks. Following a sudden dip to $2.13, the price surged by 9%, recovering to $2.45. This dramatic price swing was triggered by South Korea’s sudden decision to ban crypto exchanges from listing XRP. However, the broader market sentiment, fueled by Ripple’s expanding ecosystem and Bitcoin’s bullish rally, has contributed to XRP’s resilience and potential for further growth.
Ripple’s Ecosystem and Bitcoin’s Rally Fuel XRP’s Optimism
Ripple’s growing ecosystem, particularly its focus on cross-border payments and blockchain solutions, has been a major driver of XRP’s price appreciation. The increasing adoption of RippleNet, the company’s blockchain-based payment network, has solidified XRP’s position as a key player in the global financial landscape. Additionally, the recent surge in Bitcoin’s price has positively affected the entire cryptocurrency market, including XRP. As the leading cryptocurrency continues to gain momentum, it is likely to lift the prices of other altcoins, including XRP.
Strong Market Indicators Signal Potential for Further Gains
Several technical indicators suggest that XRP may have further room to grow. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) and Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) are two key indicators that can provide valuable insights into a cryptocurrency’s price trend. Currently, XRP’s RSI is hovering around the 50 level, indicating that the asset is neither overbought nor oversold. This suggests that there is still potential for further upward movement. Additionally, the MACD line has crossed above the signal line, forming a bullish crossover. This bullish signal suggests that the momentum is shifting in favor of the bulls, and XRP may be poised for a significant price increase.
XRP Price on the Brink of $3: Is a Major Breakout Imminent?
As XRP continues to gain momentum, many analysts believe that the cryptocurrency is on the brink of a major breakout. If the current bullish trend persists, XRP could potentially reach the $3 price level shortly. However, it is important to note that the cryptocurrency market is highly volatile, and prices can fluctuate rapidly Therefore, investors should exercise caution and conduct their research before making any investment decisions.
In conclusion, XRP’s recent price surge, strong market indicators, and the upcoming launch of Ripple’s stablecoin suggest that the cryptocurrency has the potential to continue its upward trajectory. However, investors should remain vigilant and monitor market developments closely.
understanding roc obv with rsi indicator ,teslaCombining the Rate of Change (ROC) of On-Balance Volume (OBV) with the Relative Strength Index (RSI) creates a multifaceted technical analysis tool that assesses momentum, volume flow, and potential trend reversals. Here's an overview of this composite indicator:
**Components and Calculations:**
1. **On-Balance Volume (OBV):** OBV measures cumulative buying and selling pressure by adding volume on up days and subtracting it on down days. A rising OBV suggests buying pressure, while a falling OBV indicates selling pressure.
2. **Rate of Change (ROC) of OBV:** This calculates the percentage change in OBV over a specified period, highlighting the speed at which volume flow changes. The formula is:
\
A positive ROC indicates accelerating volume flow, while a negative ROC suggests decelerating volume flow.
3. **Relative Strength Index (RSI):** RSI measures the magnitude of recent price changes to evaluate overbought or oversold conditions, oscillating between 0 and 100. Traditionally, RSI values above 70 indicate overbought conditions, and values below 30 indicate oversold conditions.
**Interpretation and Usage:**
- **Trend Continuation:** A rising ROC(OBV) combined with an RSI above 60 may confirm a strong uptrend, suggesting sustained buying momentum.
- **Trend Reversal:** A declining ROC(OBV) alongside an RSI below 40 could signal a potential trend reversal, indicating increasing selling pressure.
- **Threshold Levels:** Incorporating horizontal threshold lines can help identify support or resistance levels. For instance, if ROC(OBV) bounces off a threshold with a corresponding RSI change, it may suggest a pause or continuation in the trend.
**Visualization:**
Some implementations enhance this indicator by coloring the ROC(OBV) line based on RSI values, providing a visual representation of momentum shifts. For example, the line might turn lime when RSI is above 60 and blue when RSI is below 40, offering immediate visual cues for traders.
**Application:**
This composite indicator is particularly useful for assets with significant volume activity. By analyzing both price momentum and volume flow, traders can gain deeper insights into market dynamics, aiding in the identification of trend continuations, reversals, and potential breakout points.
**Example Implementation:**
An example of this indicator is the "Rate of Change of OBV with RSI Color" available on TradingView. This tool combines OBV, ROC, and RSI to monitor momentum and potential trend reversals, with visual enhancements based on RSI values.
By integrating these three analytical tools, traders can develop a more comprehensive understanding of market conditions, improving the accuracy of their trading decisions.
