Technical Analysis

Hi ,  are you sure swing trading is not just about catching the 'swing', no matter the time frame whether it be 1 hour or 1 month, or whether it be based on Elliott wave ABC, or even just 'buy the dip'. As an intraday trader I am always looking for swings, it is the rhythm of the auction.

 

There are only trend followers (as am I) or reversal (counter trend) traders who are looking at predefined levels for price to reverse at, but trend followers are by far the majority.

 

The interesting point of the blog was drawing attention to a potential price action signalling to a turn of swing and entry to join a continuation with trend.

 

The inside bars show indecision similar to a doji but the twin tails show a real attempt to drive to new direction, if that tight tight grouping of price action (in that particular situation) is overwhelmed (by bulls or bears) it is a good indication to the direction of next leg. 

 

I was happy to post it as I recognised it to have validity based on my own experience and is well worth to experimenting with by traders on all time frames.

Fair enough, I think essentially we all trade the same way which ever time frame you choose. Investors buy and hold but traders buy and sell and so would aim to buy low and sell high, during a trend that means taking advantage of the down swings in order to ride the upswings but each time frame has it's own rhythm within the large scale swings that can be seen on a monthly chart. The time frame a trader uses depends very much on circumstance and preference.

 

Counter trend traders are also trying to buy low and sell high by using higher time frames to identify potential turn points that have been used in the past by institutional traders and where unfilled orders may still exist, a large clump of waiting orders on a price ladder is support or resistance.

 

For any new traders reading, this is an interesting piece on choosing which time frame suits best,

Firstly I would keep a sharp eye on btcusd, the correlation has been noted before on another thread and looking at the two charts side by side that correlation continues, looking at individual large bars btc still leads the way though the gap has narrowed.

 

The 4 hour is still below the 100 and 200 ordered ma's so the general outlook must be bearish, price is currently retesting a strong support/resistance level so watch for a possible turn around here.

 

The 1 hour shows price attempting to break up past resistance but still trapped below the 200 ma and also between two mini range blocks so has a lot of work to do yet if it's to continue up.

 

The general bias must remain bearish at least until a break above 616 but if btc turns down this looks sure to follow.

I think you’re right. BTC continues to dominate.

 

From ETH perspective on the daily you have the 20 EMA moving through both the 50 and 100, and it’s honing in on the 200 real quick. The 50 is basically kissing the 100 as well right now. Not good.

 

However rsi is sat below 30, and MACD at -80.

 

On the 1H were about at the spike down back from Feb 6th, retested on 15 Mar so it would be good to break here and get back to the mid 600’s range.

 

If not I’d settle for the consolidation back in the 800 - 900 range ;)

Why are these people not making money from trading? Why are they selling education?The only money these people are making is from selling courses on their site.If they can't do it, how can new traders do it?

 

 

All these educators failed at trading themselves, due to trading mindsets.No point in trying to  hide the truth.

Hide the truth and sell education. I pity the poor suckers who go to charlatan educators.

 

You can't even answer that .The only book I recommend to traders  is"death of a snake oil salesman".It is must buy for new traders.

    • USDCHF Elliott Wave Analysis - Trading Lounge U.S. Dollar / Swiss Franc (USDCHF) - Day Chart USDCHF Elliott Wave Technical Analysis Function: Counter Trend Mode: Corrective Structure: Navy Blue Wave 2 Position: Gray Wave 3 Next Higher Degree Direction: Navy Blue Wave 3 Details: Navy Blue Wave 1 is complete; Navy Blue Wave 2 is currently in progress. Wave Invalidation Level: 0.83765 The USDCHF daily chart's Elliott Wave analysis highlights a counter-trend corrective structure, centering on Navy Blue Wave 2, which follows the completion of the preceding impulsive Navy Blue Wave 1. This corrective phase, Wave 2, signals a temporary consolidation or retracement within the larger trend. Positioned within Gray Wave 3, this movement suggests a pullback that allows for market adjustment before the anticipated trend resumption. According to Elliott Wave theory, corrective waves like Navy Blue Wave 2 typically offer brief counter-movements against the primary trend, presenting a pause or retracement. Upon concluding, the primary trend is likely to continue with Navy Blue Wave 3, indicating further upward momentum in line with the direction established in Wave 1. The wave cancel level is crucially set at 0.83765. A price movement below this threshold would invalidate the current wave structure, possibly indicating a deviation from the anticipated pattern. Sustaining price action above this level maintains the integrity of the corrective wave and the transition into the expected Navy Blue Wave 3, aligning with the broader bullish trend. This analysis underscores the significance of Navy Blue Wave 2 in preparing for the next phase. Should this corrective phase resolve without breaching the invalidation level, it opens the potential for the next impulsive wave, consistent with the higher-degree Navy Blue Wave 3. This setup hints at a bullish outlook post-consolidation, contingent on validation at the key wave cancel level.   U.S. Dollar / Swiss Franc (USDCHF) - 4-Hour Chart USDCHF Elliott Wave Technical Analysis Function: Counter Trend Mode: Corrective Structure: Navy Blue Wave 2 Position: Gray Wave 3 Next Higher Degree Direction: Navy Blue Wave 3 Details: Navy Blue Wave 1 is completed; Navy Blue Wave 2 is currently active. Wave Invalidation Level: 0.83765 The USDCHF 4-hour chart Elliott Wave analysis reveals a counter-trend corrective pattern, with Navy Blue Wave 2 actively unfolding after the completion of Navy Blue Wave 1. This structure suggests a period of consolidation that may precede a resumption of the primary trend in the upcoming wave phase. Gray Wave 3 is nested within this corrective Navy Blue Wave 2, indicating a potential pullback or sideways price movement typical of corrective phases. Elliott Wave theory posits that such corrective waves counterbalance the dominant trend, offering a period of retracement or consolidation that sets the stage for the next impulsive move. The next higher degree move is projected as Navy Blue Wave 3, expected to resume the primary trend upon the conclusion of this corrective phase. This shift would likely align with the upward direction seen in Navy Blue Wave 1, implying that Navy Blue Wave 2 is a preparatory phase leading into further trend continuation. The wave cancel level, defined at 0.83765, serves as a key threshold for the current wave count. Should the price drop below this level, it would invalidate the current structure and may indicate a divergence from the projected wave pattern. Maintaining price above this level supports the validity of Navy Blue Wave 2 and sets up for a continuation into Navy Blue Wave 3, suggesting further potential upside following this corrective phase.
