Spike

Bitcoin long trade breaking downOn January 10th I noted a price action Spike Alert around the December 3rd Liquidation Low. I saw this as a bullish signal as price was respecting that low with buyers coming in. In the days that have followed price action had a chance to reverse the bearish trend but as of this morning seems to be stalling out. The "bullish trade" is close to breakeven and on the trading timeframe (2h/4h) is setting up a bearish Ichimoku cloud breakout. This breakout could retest and break the January 10th low. I would not want to be long anymore.

Elon In potential profit zoneAs you can see, the price started its bullish cycle in Oct. It finished the channel phase and entered into trading range phase, but not a normal trading range, It created trading range in pattern mode ( bullish triangle ). Parts of the charts are: Red line: short term bearish trend line ( one side of the triangle ) Dotted red line: extended bearish trend line Green line: short term dynamic support ( another side of the triangle ) White lines: Main support zone The Price broken both bearish trend line and extended one with 3 consecutive bullish candles and then has created a pullback with 2 pin bars and another small bearish candle. That's definitely a spike and its pullback, but the context does not support the idea that it's a start of a new bullish cycle which can create a new ATH, or just a minor cycle into the trading range and can go up and touches the previous ATH. For now, We do expect that the pullback continues to at least the broken extended line ( dotted ). If it goes further, the price will make pullback to the main bearish line ( red ) which also will be the cross of the red and the green line, so at that point, strong support it likely expected. So at this point, the tp1 would be the previous high which will give %89.29 profits ( %161 if it goes down to the red line ) and at that point, we need to see the price momentum and decide to go for higher tps or we should take the profit.

Crypto SpikingAll the things crypto are spiking on the swing trading timeframes. The Bitcoin entry now could be good... it has prior hesitation in price action and one could target the top of the range for a superb reward/risk. However, the rest of the spike signals in other cryptocurrencies look more like volatility. These spikes are happening in the battleground middle of a nasty consolidation. I remain short BITFINEX:BTCUSD Bitcoin and BITFINEX:ETHUSD Ethereum. I am still looking for price to retest the Liquidation low of early December.

Money where your mouth is... ARKKI admire folks that are willing to put their trading out there for comment and criticism. It takes a lot of emotional control to trade in isolation much less when under public scrutiny. Cathie Wood was the idol of the trading world last year and widely followed for her style of exciting and parabolic investing as well as her public charisma and confidence. There was one interview in particular (I wish I could find it now but she has done many) where she acknowledged that within her trading history she has had cycles of incredible returns invariably followed by large drawdowns. She gave this interview right around the peak of her funds' performance last year. Real recognize real. That she would openly acknowledge and admit that she had self identified this pattern of her trading spoke to my own journey and likely that of all serious traders. She had acute self awareness and in some way, in that interview and comment, was warning people to be cautious with her strategy at that current moment. Now as her funds decline other traders are trying to make a name for themselves off her fall. One of which that has come to my attention is Puru Saxena. He is vocally short her funds and very bearish. That is fine for them to have a battle; no need for me to get involved. Cathie has her strategy focused on long term growth. Puru bases his strategy on macro. Neither are my game. But now it gets interesting for me as a Technical Trader. At the same time Puru is adding to his short AMEX:ARKK is sitting right at a 50% Retracement of the major trend. Over the last few days price spiked below this level only to recover quickly above it. These are my strategy. So now I get to step into this battle by putting my own capital on the line. It's a low risk/high reward trade. Not for the money but for the validation of Technical Analysis versus macro.

Technical Analysis GBPUSD FAKEOUT/SPIKE Trade.Looking at the GBPUSD monthly rejection point also known as support and resistance lines or memory. GBPUSD was currently on a weekly low and moved very rapidly to the south with a strong rejection at 1.32551. This could signify a change in trend or a continuation of previous support or resistance pattern, I'm risking 20 pips on this trade with a 2/1 R/R. 2% Per Trade. Remember this analysis is for educational purposes only and If you want to know how I draw my support and resistance lines. Just send me a message.

Looking for a rally in Oil stocksThe market looks to be recovery today and the most interesting stocks to me were oil companies ( NYSE:XOM , NYSE:MRO , NYSE:COP ) which all exhibited morning open volatility spikes. The one I liked the most because it was at at 50% Retracement (see high timeframe below) is XOM so it fits my criteria for a long trade. I'll be looking for a retest of the last major highs. This is also an addon positions to a winner from the beginning of 2021 (see Related Idea).

SPY within bearish spike tradeThis Wednesday nearly every stock in my list is up. The market as a whole is doing a recovery today. I went to the Daily AMEX:SPY to see where price action stands and found that price action of the SPY is within a bearish spike that occurred on November 22. In any instrument this would be a signal albeit the statistics of the spike's clearance are sub optimal. As price approaches 464 it will test the 50% Retracement "line in the sand" as Resistance. Conquering this, it can go on to retest the ATH, make a new one, and continue the "Santa Claus rally" that I have been expecting from this "normal" year. If the bearish pattern continues it could find support in the region around 450 that was a prior ATH and the 50% retracement of the last leg up. Currently momentum remains bullish according to Ichimoku. Price has through the first days of December to stay on the bullish side of price action.

Comcast long after earningsNASDAQ:CMCSA had earnings yesterday and the stock opened and spiked below the October low. It quickly recapture the range setting up a good spike opportunity. I like taking these sort of setups because earnings is a good catalyst to move a stock (in either direction) and also removes that unknown volatility factor that could disrupt an otherwise good trade. NASDAQ:CMCSA is a long term portfolio hold for me so this position is a trade and an addition on a pullback for the stock. I use Comcast and they are continuing to dominate the broadband space. I also have it in a basket strategy with other broadband related stocks such as NASDAQ:HLIT , NASDAQ:COMM , and NASDAQ:CSCO .

The spike high on EUR/TRY is a classic reversal patternThere are a couple of technical analysis patterns that can help identify reversals – some are more important than others, but this morning we note this beauty: - The spike high on daily EUR/TRY chart The spike high on EUR/TRY, not only did it chart a spike high, but it reversed from a Fibonacci extension (1.618) AND we note the divergence of the daily RSI. All these factors imply that the market has topped. Spike highs are identified by the following criteria: • a High sharply above the days on either side, • a Close near the day's Low, and • a strong preceding rally. The more extreme each of these conditions are, the greater the likelihood of a reversal. NB RSI = Relative strength Index (click here if you would like to know more - www.investopedia.com).

Gold spikes after CPI, RSI divergence !!Hello everyone, as we all know the market action discounts everything :) _________________________________Make sure to Like and Follow if you like the idea_________________________________ During the Asian session on Thursday, gold experienced some selling, losing a portion of the previous day's big climb to the highest level in roughly a month. The XAU/USD, which is considered a hedge against inflation, benefited after the US CPI report revealed that inflationary pressures had been steadily rising. In light of last Friday's poor NFP print, the data heightened concerns about the return of stagflation. This, together with widespread US currency weakening, provided a significant boost to the dollar-denominated commodity. A positive RSI divergence has been found as well and it happened after the CPI report yesterday which indicates an increase in value. Possible Scenarios for the market : Scenario 1 : Today started Bearishly but looking at the chart and how the trend is currently trading we might see another push today that will be headed near the first resistance level located at 1805.86 and from there it will push further hitting the major resistance zone starting at 1819.94 where the main battle will happen and the winner will determine the market movement for the next period of time. Scenario 2 : The Bears are starting strong today and they will be attempting to drop the market value today after the big rise that happened yesterday, If there were able to keep this momentum today then we will see the market drop, and the first stop will be the support located at 1767.87, in case they broke out that support then they will keep going until they hit the support at 1743.96 where we might witness a bounce back in price. Technical indicators show : 1) The market is above the 5 10 20 50 MA and EMA indicating a Bullish short-term trend, But still below the 100 and 200 MA and EMA which tells us that the major trend is still looking Bearish. 2) The RSI is at 58.05 showing good strength in the market. a divergence has been seen between the market and the indicator. 3) The ADX is at 19.80 near trending state, With a positive crossover between DI+ (24.46) and DI- (15.79). Daily Support & Resistance points : support Resistance 1) 1767.87 1) 1805.86 2) 1743.96 2) 1819.94 3) 1729.88 3) 1843.85 Fundamental point of view : Wednesday’s rally came after the Labor Department reported that consumer prices in the United States rose by 5.4% in the year to September as rallying commodity markets from oil to coffee kept the pressure up on the world’s largest economy. On Tuesday, the International Monetary Fund cut its outlook for 2021 world growth to 5.9% from a previous forecast of 6%, saying the momentum for the global economy has weakened while uncertainty has increased. The IMF is also concerned that surging commodity prices will force central banks into tightening cycles that could trigger selloffs in global equities. While gold appeared to have a tentative resistance at $1,800, that might not prove to be too difficult to breach if risk aversion runs wild. According to investing This is my personal opinion done with technical analysis of the market price and research online from Fundamental Analysts and News for The Fundamental point of view, not financial advice. If you have any questions please ask and have a great day !! Thank you for reading.
