I'm afraid one the bad things about trading is you have to read and test a lot of the stuff out there to realise it does not work or suit your style, all the while the sharks are happy to take your £ until you fathom it out

 

I've seen people talk about style -- why does it matter?  It seems like people use the word as a hand-wavy way to avoid illogical things they cannot explain.

Yeah some do - I could probably write a chapter of a book on it - I'm not here to write a book or explain everything thing about trading and Investing - I'll leave that up to the Individual to explore should they choose to

Trading and pulling the trigger is mental - you try trading a method that does not suit your personality and it'll cause issues, hence why your trading style/method etc matters significantly

I've already stated that I trade using precision, tight entries, tight stops - thats ME - others might be happy just buying the market at its current place, having a wide stop - that's fine if that suits them

You have to trade a method that you're comfortable using and it HAS actually work

You find out style with practise - practise means committing real money to the plate - you can trade gazillions in a demo account, real world is totally different

Remember trading is a combination of multiple aspects, so you might have the right style in place but may be losing as your expectations of the trade aren't what the market is prepared to give you

    • Ethereum (ETH) has seen some significant price fluctuations lately. With a slight gain of 0.3% at press time, ETH is trading at $2,446. Investors and traders are now focusing on the ETH price prediction as market conditions remain volatile. Let's break down the key factors affecting Ethereum’s price action and what to watch for in the coming days. Recent Price Movements Ethereum’s intraday low was $2,400.51, and its high reached $2,470.91. Recent outflows of $8.19 million from Ethereum ETFs (as of October 8) are adding to the pressure. Whale Alert has reported large ETH dumps to Coinbase, increasing selling pressure. Ethereum’s current market cap stands at $294.32 billion. Facing Resistance Ethereum’s price was rejected at a key resistance level of $2,461 on Monday. This resistance zone aligns with: 50% price retracement at $2,487. The 50-day EMA around $2,546. As of Wednesday, ETH is trading slightly above $2,400 and is again approaching this crucial resistance level. What Happens If Resistance Holds? If Ethereum fails to break the $2,461 resistance, we could see a 12% decline from its current level, possibly retesting the September 6 low of $2,155. The RSI is currently at 46, signaling weakness and a continuation of the downward trend. Potential Upside If ETH breaks through the $2,461 resistance and closes above the 50-day EMA at $2,546, there is potential for further upward movement. In this scenario: ETH could rise to retest its August 25 high of $2,820. Key Support Levels to Watch Should Ethereum fail to clear the resistance and start declining, here are the support levels to monitor: Initial support sits near $2,420. Major support is found at $2,390, which also aligns with the 61.8% Fib retracement level (from the $2,310 swing low to the $2,519 high). A move below $2,390 could push prices toward $2,325. Further losses may send ETH down to $2,240. The next critical support level is at $2,120. Ethereum's price is in a tight spot, with both upside and downside possibilities. A breakout above $2,461 could spark a rally, while failing to break resistance may trigger a decline toward lower support levels. Keep an eye on these key levels as the next few days will be crucial for determining ETH’s price direction
