wedge and technical analysis

Hi phill, if the top line is horizontal and the bottom line is ascending then it is an ascending triangle and repeated attacks on the horizontal resistance level will reduce the number of sellers at that level to breaking point, so the theory goes. It doesn't always work out that way and that is not a particularly good example as it's too drawn out which suggests the sellers are strong while the buyers are struggling to lift price back up each time.

Also a good rule of thumb is that for a Triangle to be valid it should be broken no later than 2/3 of the way along the length, otherwise it becomes an unreliable set up.  The longer term the chart the more reliable the Triangle (i.e. Daily chart is much stronger than 1 hour chart, true of most technical analysis actually).

Interesting. I thought higher highs meant it was going to try and breakout to the upside? But Casey it sounds like your saying this is a bearish signal?

Correct, repeated attacks on the horizontal level will usually over-run all the orders waiting there but I don't see this as a triangle, the structure is poor and the attacks on the horizontal are weak and beaten down with strength. There is probably a stronger case for drawing another horizontal at the grey line on the 3 equal lows.

    • Does anyone else know any other SB providers that you can use to trade through TV?  I've only so far seen CFD providers which doesn't work for me due to tax reasons (mainly the hassle of having to account for it as well as the obvious cost).
    • Is there any update on when/if there will be any integration with Tradingview???
    • The anonymity of cryptocurrency transactions can vary depending on the specific cryptocurrency you use and the methods you use. While some cryptocurrencies provide a degree of privacy and anonymity, it is important to note that achieving complete anonymity can be difficult. Most cryptocurrencies operate on a pseudonymous basis. Transactions are recorded in a public ledger, called a blockchain, using cryptographic addresses instead of personal information. However, these addresses are usually not directly linked to a real identity, unless someone voluntarily discloses this information. Some cryptocurrencies, such as Monero (XMR) and Zcash (ZEC), are specifically designed to increase privacy and anonymity. I read on https://deeplab.com/darkweb/anonymous-sudan-launches-cyberattacks-on-middle-eastern-news-outlets-expands-target-list-with-four-additional-names that some people use this anonymity as a cyber attack.
