Moving Averages

(ETH) ethereumWhen can we expect to see reports on the new concepts about Ethereum in the future? Buying mode, price of Ethereum well under the dotted line. Ethereum has not had a strong position for some time and is likely to find profits. One large drop in price does not usually follow another than another than another and especially not with such large volume and capital. Am I in control of the flow, no. Do I have billions to make heavy movements, no. Am I interested in the progress of Ethereum despite holding little to no value in Ethereum, yes.

btc finds 200 ema support, whats next?As I have been posting in these "Ideas" for the past few weeks about market direction and where the price for BTC will go. It now has come to pass where the 200 EMA has been tested and support has been found, It however has not generated any relief among buyer sentiment unable to push price above the previous days close leaving the digital asset to continue to bleed out and cause positions from all the 93k Bulls to liquidate. Its a shame people cannot make the connection that the only way price can go higher is to go lower in a market. That Is why I am going to warn people about where we may go , I believe the 200 EMA will be tested again and if support is broken it will send is into the low 70k area where there are open orders and It is possible this may happen. The Bull market support band is the 200EMA however there may be institutional money that may drive us down to cause massive liquidations and fear and panic among those holding bags while greed causes big players to push more into the fringe of where we can maintain a recovery. Watch for a retest of the 200EMA . which is a bit of a fuzzy zone , use the high and low to denote the area for support as well as keep an eye on the RSI and CCI , we are also watching on balance volume drop off which is not a great sign that there is market confidence however this will play out over the weekly and the weekly candle will start to materialize in the next few days.

MSFT ChannelBetween January 2023 and July 2024 NASDAQ:MSFT had a nearly 100% expansion showing aggressive growth. For the last 8 months however, MSFT has been trading sideways in a channel between ~$455 and ~$400. During the last earnings report future growth guidance came in under expectations. Technically, there was large gap down following earnings and a retraction to the 21 EMA offering a short entry window. I took a short position here with a stop loss placed above the 21 EMA, I will be adding to this position when price breaks the support of $400 and again if it continues to fall and retracts to the $400 level. First target is the previous $373 support level, second target is the $330 support level.

BIDU: MAs coiling tightly + Double bottomI really like BIDU stock here, so I entered more than my usual size. What I like about this setup - MAs coiling super tightly across all timeframes. 10, 20, 50, 100, 200. Tight MAs represent volatility contraction and this often leads to volatility expansion, i.e. large price movements. All the MAs are now within 5% range. When the MAs crossover, its like this combo nuclear reaction igniting one another, propelling the stock upwards. And its possible you get a sustained one. - 10 and 20 MA are already above 50MA. short term, we are up. And now I'm waiting for the next nuclear reaction to happen. - We have attempted to break above this 94.5 key resistance for many times now. If we do, easily 113 as price target. - Double bottom formation. Yes, its not a double bottom yet since it hasn't break above the neckline. But that false breakdown earlier gave me extra confidence that we have bottomed. - Fibo retracement at 50% line now. Good support. (did not draw it in, else it becomes cluttered) - Tailwind from China internet sector. When will I stop loss - Break below previous low at 96.8 and stay below 50MA for 5 days. Others - I note that Im front-running this a little. If it goes to 92.5 above the flag, and 200sma, it would be better confirmation. But I entered with options, so I wanted a better price before the pump actually happens.

Downtrend in Applied Materials?Applied Materials has struggled since the summer and some traders may see further downside in the provider of chip equipment. The first pattern on today’s chart is the series of higher lows between late December and mid-February. Earnings beat estimates on February 13, but conservative guidance pushed the stock below that line. The result is a potential bear-flag breakdown. Second, short- and long-term moving averages may show bearish trends. The 50-day simple moving average (SMA) crossed under the 100-day and 200-day SMAs in September. Two months later, the 100-day SMA slid below the 200-day SMA. The 8-day exponential moving average (EMA) crossed under the 21-day EMA two weeks ago. MACD has also been negative. Finally, you have the big event of NASDAQ:NVDA Nvidia earnings tomorrow afternoon. Given its importance to the entire semiconductor industry, AMAT could be especially volatile around the news.

DEEP - Finding The Next Trade SetupDEEP recently took out the January 13, 2025 low at $0.12345 with a Swing Failure Pattern (SFP), followed by a successful retest. This led to a bounce that hit a key level at $0.12141, presenting a solid long opportunity with minimal risk. After this, the market turned bullish, forming a 5-wave structure and rallying to the 0.786 Fibonacci retracement level at $0.18643 (measured from the $0.20473 high to the $0.11922 low). This was a key take-profit zone for longs and a great short opportunity. Adding confluence, the anchored VWAP also acted as resistance just above at $0.19, offering another low-risk short setup. Additionally, a key resistance level at $0.1809 further reinforced the rejection zone. Current Price Action & Short Setup From the 0.786 Fib retracement, DEEP retraced 20% downward, nearly touching the 0.618 retracement of the 5-wave structure before bouncing. Now, price is finding resistance at the golden pocket (0.618 at $0.17347 and 0.666 at $0.17534) of the recent drop, aligning perfectly with the daily 21 EMA ($0.1757) and daily SMA ($0.17347). This setup suggests an ABC corrective move is forming. Using the trend-based Fibonacci extension, the 0.786 extension aligns with the 0.618 retracement at $0.1457, creating a strong short setup. Short Entry: Between $0.17347 - $0.17534 Target: $0.1457 (0.786 trend-based Fib extension / 0.618 retracement) Stop Loss: $0.1845 Risk/Reward: 2.5:1 There’s also potential to extend the target to the 1:1 trend-based Fib extension at $0.13733, but this would depend on price action. Potential Long Setup If price reaches the $0.1457 support zone, this could present a high-probability long opportunity. Entry: Around $0.1457 Risk/Reward: 2:1 or better, but confirmation is needed before executing the trade

Microsoft’s Momentum Could Be FadingMicrosoft has sputtered for months, and now some traders may see downside risk. The first pattern on today’s chart is the pair of bearish gaps after earnings. The software giant rebounded quickly in November, returning above its 21-day exponential moving average (EMA) and 200-day simple moving average (SMA). Contrast that with January 30’s drop, when prices stayed under both moving averages. That session’s opening price around $418.77 has also emerged as resistance this month. Second, the 50-day SMA is nearing a potential “death cross” below the 200-day SMA. That’s a potentially bearish long-term signal. MACD has been negative and the 8-day EMA is below the 21-day EMA. Those are potentially bearish short-term signals. Next, the stock has been trying to hold the November lows around $405. But if that level breaks, the August low under $386 may come into play. Finally, MSFT has traded an average of 463,000 options contracts per day in the last month. (It’s the eight most active underlier in the S&P 500 in that time, according to TradeStation data.) That may create opportunity for options traders to position for a potential move toward the 52-week low.

DXY Falling Below $106 - Cue AltSeason in March!The biggest shock to everyone is going to be the price of CRYPTOCAP:BTC going DOWN while ALTS skyrocket 🚀 As I have discussed in my macro thesis, the TVC:DXY is FINALLY breaking down on the Weekly along with the 10Y. RSI has topped and Price broke below the WMA9 & 20. Just waiting on the WMA9 to break below the WMA20 for final confirmation. Historically when this happens... it’s ALTSEASON BABY!!! 🥳 After this happened in March 2017, BTC and ALTS pumped together, then BTC went down 33% while ALTS exploded higher over a 3 week period before BTC rallied alongside again.

$SPY February 24, 2025AMEX:SPY February 24, 2025 15 Minutes. The move from 610.70 to 599.47 is extended. Hence a retracement is possible. I expect a retracement to 602-603 levels. On weekly have a bad close. High was made and close was near low. On daily $\spy near 50-day average. I expect a bounce to 603 -604 levels this week for a target 594 being 100 moving averages. Not a week to go long. As expected, 613-614 provided resistance and AMEX:SPY pulled back as extension targe was achieved.

S&P 500 mostly neutral heading into summer 2025All the usual disclaimers: 1. I am not registered with FINRA. I am not a financial advisor. 2. Prior performance is not a guarantee of future performance. 3. This post is not and is not intended as financial advice. Instead, this post shares speculation upon hypothetical possible future outcomes. 4. This post uses purely doodling and technical analysis. It is not based to any extent upon education from news sources, information releases from underlying firms, nor upon microeconomic nor macroeconomic principles. 5. This scrying is unlikely to predict price action and VWAP vectors (direction and magnitude) within 50% accuracy over any specific interval. The gray scrying upon CME_MINI:ESH2025 foreshadows replay of VWAPs starting since November and December. Both converge in early summer 2025 that appears slightly bullish during their +3 month windows, but they also return to the current price zone of contention. Referring to "2. Prior performance is not a guarantee of future performance," even when lightning strikes multiple times, it never follows the exact same path. The daily normal range (orange for post, pre, and early trading) and daily extreme range (red for normal and late trading) boxes appear to have been sufficiently calibrated for ESH2025. They may need to be recalibrated each quarter.

CADCHF | 130pipsAfter waiting a while another opportunity presents it's self Weak price in buyers at top with the same range, looking at a ~130pip drop. First I waited for buyers to break above resistance, and then to see what else they could do afterwards As price went on we saw buyers try to step back in but only for sellers to keep pushing down creating Lower Highs and Lower Lows This tells me buyers aren't too interested and could see sellers step in with more strength as time goes on. Price is also consolidating around SMA-150 exactly after the rejection which tells me price is building up for a reversal. Same rules apply: - Shorts Only - Setup will take 20 days start to finish - The actual trade will take 6 days +
