BAC Bank of America SHORTBAC is shown here on the 15 minute chart. Fundamentally, it is under pressure like many other banks including First Republic. On the chart, price is in a downtrend having bounced from VWAP (redline) in confluence with the blue line of the top of the high volume area of the volume profile. Price is underneath the blackline which is the 210 HMA. Only shorts should be taken underneath that line. The target is the thin red line below which is the bottom of the low volume area. Accordingly, the thin red line is the target while the thin blue line or the VWAP (thick red) are the stop loss levels. This is a very safe trade with an acceptable R:R. My put option @ $ 28.50 for expiration 5/12 gained 68% overnight. I will ride this down and then look for the reversal trade.

Dollar Index with very bullish patternsHey traders! Seems like since few days we have nice accumulation patterns on Dollar Index. Sellers loosing power in last two days and buyers taking slowly control. Very strong buying waves on the last highs give extremely bullish patterns. Trading around upper channel line is giving information that buyers try to go high buy still they absorb short selling. the dollar index is weighted by the euro in 57%, so if the breakout accrued on this chart EURUSD should be traded short.

ACHV preparing to Reverse SHORTACHC previously ran up in a high tight flag pattern in my previous idea. It has been slowly ascending in a narrowing channel. ( ascending wedge) There has been a little push in volume on the indicator as price has approached the upper boundaries of the channel. The average directional index has decreased into the " chop zone" where consolidation and lack of direction describes the price action. I see this an an opportunity for a short entry. I will watch things on the 1 and 5 minute charts for the best entry possible and the ride this volatile biotechnology stock a long as possible.

OPRA Opera - Alternative Browser Earnings Play LONGOPRA has had a consistent upwards trajectory as shown on the 4H chart. 189% price increase in approximately 125 trading days is about 1.5% daily return, This could be a good set-it-and-forget-it play on the very positive earnings report. OPRA beat earnings guidance by 34% despite advertising pullbacks in a moderate recession. The revenue held steady giving cause shareholders to see the ship as sailing well despite the headwinds it is exposed to. The chart shows a dramatic increase in volume in the past month which is powering the price action. On the long term volume profile, price is sitting above the POC, buyers are dominating right now and short sellers if anything are buying to cover giving further fuel to the price appreciation. As the modest pirce per share and great return on any recent ivestment, I see OPRA as heading higher into blue sky (all-time high). Today's pullback of 3% is the entry @ market in the morning.

📊 Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD)📍 CVD describes the number of contracts bought at the offer minus those sold at the bid. It simply measures the "aggressiveness" of buyers versus sellers. If the sellers are aggressive, they place limit orders instead of market selling and vice versa. CVD is the easiest method to use delta in your trading. 🔹UPTREND EXHAUSTION Price is making new highs but CVD isn't. This shows a lack of interest coming from aggressive buyers who would be needed to continue the price increase. We can expect a short term reversal to the downside. 🔷UPTREND ABSORPTION CVD is making new highs but price isn't. This shows that there is a lot of activity from aggressive buyers trying to push the price higher but their market buy orders are getting absorbed by limit sell orders. 🔷DOWNTREND EXHAUSTION Price is making new lows but CVD isn't. This shows a lack of interest coming from aggressive sellers who would be needed to continue the price decrease. We can expect a short term reversal to the upside. 🔷DOWNTREND ABSORPTION CVD is making new lows but price isn't. This shows that there is a lot of activity from aggressive sellers trying to push the price lower but their market sell orders are getting absorbed by limit buy orders. 👤 @AlgoBuddy 📅 Daily Ideas about market update, psychology & indicators ❤️ If you appreciate our work, please like, comment and follow ❤️

SKX - Cup & HandleSKX has trended above it's 200 day moving average since 11 Nov 2022 and began to consolidate in a mini cup pattern ("handle" if we look at the monthly timeframe) for the last 3 months. It has just broken above this mini cup neckline @ 49 strongly after earnings beat and is now heading towards a more significant neckline (54 - 56 zone). If it is able to break and stay above this major neckline, then there is room to go higher as it begin a new up trend. Ideally we would like to see a minor pullback shortly after the breakup to retest and affirm that the neckline has become the new support. However this may or may not happen and we should manage the trade with trailing stops (usually placed at near term pivot lows, gap fill or some fib levels). Disclaimer: Just my 2 cents and not a trade advice. Kindly do your own due diligence and trade according to your own risk tolerance and don't forget that money management (ie postion sizing, stop loss etc) is important! Take care and Good Luck!

How to use Volume and Volatility to improve your tradesVolume and volatility are two important factors that can affect your trading performance. Volume measures the number of shares or contracts traded in a given period, while volatility measures the degree of price fluctuations. Understanding how these two factors interact can help you identify trading opportunities, manage risk, and optimize your entry and exit points. In this article, we will explain how to use volume and volatility to improve your trades in four steps: 1. Analyze the volume and volatility patterns of the market or instrument you are trading. Different markets and instruments have different volume and volatility profiles, depending on factors such as liquidity, supply and demand, news events, and market sentiment. For example, some markets may have higher volume and volatility during certain hours of the day, while others may have lower volume and volatility during holidays or weekends. You can use tools such as volume bars, volume indicators, average true range (ATR), and historical volatility to analyze the volume and volatility patterns of your chosen market or instrument. 2. Identify the volume and volatility signals that indicate a potential trade setup. Volume and volatility signals can help you confirm the strength and direction of a trend, spot reversals and breakouts, and gauge the momentum and interest of the market participants. For example, some common volume and volatility signals are: - High volume and high volatility indicate strong conviction and participation in a trend or a breakout. This can be a sign of a continuation or an acceleration of the price movement. - Low volume and low volatility indicate weak conviction and participation in a trend or a breakout. This can be a sign of a consolidation or a slowdown of the price movement. - Rising volume and rising volatility indicate increasing interest and activity in the market. This can be a sign of a potential reversal or breakout from a consolidation or a range. - Falling volume and falling volatility indicate decreasing interest and activity in the market. This can be a sign of a potential exhaustion or continuation of a trend. 3. Choose the appropriate trading strategy based on the volume and volatility conditions. Depending on the volume and volatility signals you observe, you can choose different trading strategies to suit the market conditions. For example, some possible trading strategies are: - Trend following: This strategy involves following the direction of the dominant trend, using volume and volatility to confirm the trend strength and identify entry and exit points. You can use trend indicators, such as moving averages, to define the trend direction, and use volume indicators, such as on-balance volume (OBV), to measure the buying and selling pressure behind the trend. You can also use volatility indicators, such as Bollinger bands, to identify periods of high or low volatility within the trend. - Reversal trading: This strategy involves identifying potential turning points in the market, using volume and volatility to confirm the reversal signals. You can use reversal patterns, such as double tops or bottoms, head and shoulders, or candlestick patterns, to spot potential reversals, and use volume indicators, such as volume profile or accumulation/distribution line (ADL), to measure the distribution or accumulation of shares or contracts at different price levels. You can also use volatility indicators, such as standard deviation or Keltner channels, to identify periods of overbought or oversold conditions that may precede a reversal. - Breakout trading: This strategy involves trading when the price breaks out of a consolidation or a range, using volume and volatility to confirm the breakout validity and direction. You can use support and resistance levels, such as horizontal lines, trend lines, or Fibonacci retracements, to define the boundaries of the consolidation or range, and use volume indicators, such as volume breakout or Chaikin money flow (CMF), to measure the inflow or outflow of money during the breakout. You can also use volatility indicators, such as average directional index (ADX) or Donchian channels, to measure the strength or weakness of the breakout. 4. Manage your risk and reward based on the volume and volatility expectations. Volume and volatility can also help you determine your risk-reward ratio, position size, stop-loss level, and profit target for each trade. Generally speaking, - Higher volume and higher volatility imply higher risk and higher reward potential. You may need to use wider stop-losses and profit targets to account for the larger price fluctuations. You may also need to reduce your position size to limit your exposure to the market. - Lower volume and lower volatility imply lower risk and lower reward potential. You may need to use tighter stop-losses and profit targets to account for the smaller price fluctuations. You may also need to increase your position size to enhance your returns from the market. By following these four steps, you can use volume and volatility to improve your trades in any market or instrument. Volume and volatility are dynamic factors that reflect the supply and demand forces in the market.

MGRX Biotech Penny Stock Pullback for Continuation LONGMGRX with some FDA news catalyst got a lot of action on the last session of the week. With the pullback and overwhelming volume during the session, a continuation into the upcoming week is entirely reasonable. ( see also the link) MGRX had a last price of about $1.50 about a 50% retracement from the high of the day. I will take a position at market price in the pre-market opening the week. The target will be $2.25 or midway between the current price and the high of the last session. This will represent a 50% Return on Trading Position. I will set a stop loss at $ 1.40 representing a 10% loss. Price at present is sitting on a confluence of support of both the 20 and 50 HMAs along with the lowermost VWAP band. The reward for risk is 5X. MGRX does not have options. I expect the long trade to hit the continuation target in less than 5 days. I will set a buy-stop order to take a position when the price exceeds $ 1.55 with a stop loss of $0.15 to account for the expected volatility.

RRGB - Great price action so far (buy the next dip)RRGB has the hallmarks of a stock that could potentially be a great winner. It broke out of it's base formation on 1st March on earnings beat with a strong breakaway gap (Breakaway gaps signify the beginning of a new trend and does not get filled in the near term). It then proceeded higher over the next few days before pulling back to the breakup level @ 10.60 on 14 Mar, and then bounced right off again from there. This classic "break up and retest" establishes the neckline as the new "resistence turned support". If one had been watching this stock, going long shortly after this "retest" would have been ideal. However, since it is likely the trend is still in early stage, any near term dip (eg to fib retracement levels of 38-50%, or formation of bull pennant or flag etc) would still be a good opportunity to long. Let's see if the opportunity presents soon. Disclaimer: Just my 2 cents and not a trade advice. Kindly do your own due diligence and trade according to your own risk tolerance and don't forget that money management is important! Take care and Good Luck!

Next stop: Altcoins. Hello traders. Bitcoin is finally arriving at my point of interest which, if you follow my ideas here will know that the area which I have a keen interest on is anything between FWB:25K -$27k. Bitcoin candles, once in this zone, will print whatever they want to print. I will set my buy orders within this range. Meanwhile, a bounce in btc from this range means an upward mega rally in AltCoins. Which means I will be buying some of them at the current prices. (Ada, Matic, Eth etc). These coins give a decent return whenever Bitcoin shows a rally up. So this is an excellent opportunity no one wants to miss.

📊The Effects of Volume Cheatsheet📍 In trading, volume refers to the number of shares or contracts that are traded within a specific period of time. It is a key technical indicator used by traders and investors to analyze the strength and direction of price movements in the financial markets. The volume of a security can be used to confirm trends, indicate potential reversals, and identify areas of support and resistance. For example, a sudden increase in trading volume for a particular stock may suggest that a significant news event has occurred or that there is an increase in investor interest. On the other hand, a decrease in volume may indicate that investors are losing interest or that a trend is weakening. Volume is important in trading because it provides information about market activity and helps traders make informed decisions. By analyzing trading volume along with other technical indicators such as moving averages and price patterns, traders can gain insights into market trends and make more accurate predictions about future price movements. 💥Key Takeaway: When prices are rising or falling with high volume , it suggests that there is strong participation in the market and that the price movement is likely to continue in that direction . Conversely, when prices are rising or falling with low volume, it may indicate that there is not enough market participation to sustain the price movement and that a reversal could occur. 👤 @AlgoBuddy 📅 Daily Ideas about market update, psychology & indicators ❤️ If you appreciate our work, please like, comment and follow ❤️
