GC1! – The Wedge Strikes BackGC1! – The Wedge Strikes Back 🚀
Gold futures (GC1!) just gave us a textbook rollover move. As the front-month rolled, price faked a wedge breakdown, only to rip back inside the structure once rollover completed. That failed breakout speaks volumes – and now the wedge is back in control.
Rollover Trap → Back Inside the Wedge
Rollover volatility flushed price below the wedge, pulling in shorts… but the move didn’t stick. Buyers stepped up and snapped price back inside, turning the wedge’s lower boundary into rock-solid support once again.
The Long Game 🎯
With GC1! holding the wedge:
Longs off wedge support are the play
Resistance: 3,380
Target: 3,446 (upper wedge boundary)
Stop-loss: 3,336 (below support)
Risk/Reward: 🔥 10.69 RRR
Volume Profile also shows heavy accumulation in the 3,336–3,380 zone – crack through 3,380, and we could see momentum accelerate quickly.
Bottom Line
This isn’t just another bounce – it’s a failed breakdown on rollover. Wedge traders are back in the driver’s seat, and the setup offers a crystal-clear invalidation point with serious upside potential.

USDJPY Setup: Prime Buy Zone with a Clear Target!Good morning my friends,
I've prepared a fresh USDJPY analysis just for you.
Currently, the most logical buy zone sits at 147.170. If price reaches this level and performs a retest, it’s likely to target the 149.185 level.
I'll personally be entering at 147.170 and waiting for my target: 149.000.
This setup is based on the 4-hour timeframe, so it may take some time to reach the target.
Every single like you give is a major source of motivation for me to keep sharing these analyses.
Thanks so much to everyone supporting with a like!
LTC is bullish now and many Traders don't see itSo if you pay attention to the LTC chart you can see that the price has formed a Ascending wedge which means it is expected to price move as equal as the measured price movement.( AB=CD )
NOTE: wait for break of the WEDGE .
Best regards CobraVanguard.💚
Wedge Pattern — A Key to Trend Movements📐 Wedge Pattern — A Key to Trend Movements 📈
🔍 Introduction
The Wedge is a chart pattern that represents a phase of directional consolidation following a trending move. It can act as a continuation 🔄 or a reversal 🔃 signal, depending on the context. The structure consists of two converging trendlines, both sloping in the same direction.
🧩 Pattern Description
Unlike the Flag pattern 🚩, the Wedge has no flagpole and doesn’t depend on the direction of the previous move. The direction of the wedge body determines its type:
A falling wedge ⬇️ is bullish 🟢 (buy signal)
A rising wedge ⬆️ is bearish 🔴 (sell signal)
The breakout is the key point to watch. The two trendlines slope in the same direction but at different angles, causing them to converge. This reflects a loss of momentum ⚠️ and typically indicates that buyers or sellers are preparing to take control.
This pattern can act as:
A continuation signal 🧭 — appearing at the end of a correction
A reversal signal 🔄 — forming at the end of a strong trend
📉 Volume is usually low during the wedge and rises on breakout. A low-volume breakout increases the risk of a false breakout ❗. Often, price retests the breakout level 🔁, giving traders a second chance to enter.
🎯 Entry & Stop-Loss Strategy
📥 Entry: On breakout confirmation
🛑 Stop-loss: Below the pattern’s low (bullish) or above its high (bearish), or under/above the most recent local swing point
🎯 Target: Project the height of the widest part of the wedge from the breakout point. Alternatively, use key price levels 📊 or a trailing stop 🔂 to lock in profits.

XRP Breakout Could Be a Trap… Or the Start of Something Big?Yello, Paradisers — are you about to buy into a fake breakout or position yourself right before a major move? Let’s break it down before emotions take over.
💎XRPUSDT has officially broken out of a falling wedge — a classic bullish reversal structure. What makes this breakout even more interesting is that it's supported by bullish divergence on both MACD and RSI, plus a Change In State of Delivery (CISD). All these technical signals combined significantly increase the probability of a bullish continuation.
💎Now, if you’re a disciplined trader looking for a safer entry with a higher risk-to-reward ratio, the smart move is to wait for a potential pullback to the CISD level. That would set up an opportunity offering a risk-to-reward of over 1:2.55 — not something you want to ignore.
💎But don’t get too comfortable…
💎If the price breaks down and closes below our invalidation level, the entire bullish idea is off the table. In that case, it’s wiser to stay patient and wait for clearer price action to develop. No emotional entries — only strategic moves.
🎖Strive for consistency, not quick profits. Treat the market as a businessman, not as a gambler. That’s how you’ll get inside the winner circle.

BITCOIN → Hunting for liquidity. Retest resistance before a fallBINANCE:BTCUSDT.P continues to consolidate after a strong rally. There is no strong driver yet, and Bitcoin is reacting weakly to economic data. There is a possibility of a continued correction...
Bitcoin is still in correction, but is rebounding from the local low of 117.4, formed during the pullback, and is heading back up towards the zone of interest at 119.8-120.1, which it did not reach during the main upward movement. I see no fundamental or technical reasons for the correction to end and for growth beyond 121K. I expect a rebound from the resistance zone towards 115-114K. However, in the medium term, I expect the market to attempt to close half or all of the gap between 112K and 114.8K, thereby expanding the key trading range.
Resistance levels: 119.77, 120.1K, 120.8K
Support levels: 117.4, 116.37, 115.68
Technically, a false breakout (liquidity capture) of key resistance and price consolidation in the selling zone could trigger bearish pressure on the market, which in turn would lead to a correction.
Best regards, R. Linda!
GOLD → Retest of trend support. Consolidation...GOLD is consolidating below the previously broken trend support. On Sunday, Trump announced a trade deal with the EU, which is putting pressure on the market along with the rising dollar...
Gold rebounded from support at $3310 after a week-long low, interrupting a three-day decline amid profit-taking. However, the overall downtrend remains intact as markets brace for a busy week with the release of US GDP data and the Fed's decision. Optimism surrounding US-China trade talks and the US-EU framework agreement is reducing demand for safe-haven assets. Additional pressure on gold is coming from easing geopolitical tensions: Thailand and Cambodia have agreed to ceasefire talks. The metal's recovery may be short-lived.
Technically, we have global and local bullish trends, against which gold is testing support, but as we can see, buyers are trying to hold back the decline due to uncertainty over interest rates. There is a chance that we will see active action by the Fed, behind which lies a rate cut, this week...
Resistance levels: 3345, 3375
Support levels: 3320, 3287
At the moment, I do not see a proper reaction to the support breakout. The price is consolidating after confirming the key trigger at 3345. Thus, if the price starts to return to 3345, test and consolidate above the level, we will have a chance for growth. I do not rule out a liquidity grab from 3325 (false breakout) before the rise.
BUT! The structure will be broken if the price breaks 3325 - 3320 and begins to consolidate below this zone. In this case, gold may fall to 3287
Best regards, R. Linda!
GBPCAD - Long-Term Long!Hello TradingView Family / Fellow Traders. This is Richard, also known as theSignalyst.
📈GBPCAD has been overall bullish trading within the rising wedge pattern marked in blue.
This week, GBPCAD has been retesting the lower bound of the wedge.
Moreover, the red zone is a strong weekly structure.
🏹 Thus, the highlighted blue circle is a strong area to look for buy setups as it is the intersection of the lower blue trendline and red structure.
📚 As per my trading style:
As #GBPCAD approaches the blue circle zone, I will be looking for trend-following bullish reversal setups (like a double bottom pattern, trendline break , and so on...)
📚 Always follow your trading plan regarding entry, risk management, and trade management.
Good luck!
All Strategies Are Good; If Managed Properly!

Bitcoin will rebound up from support area to resistance lineHello traders, I want share with you my opinion about Bitcoin. After a strong upward trend that originated from the buyer zone and evolved through an upward wedge, bitcoin executed a decisive breakout, shifting the market into a new, higher-value market phase. This powerful move has since led to an extended period of wide consolidation within a well-defined horizontal channel, a classic sign of the market pausing to absorb the prior impulse and build cause for its next major leg. Currently, the asset's price action is rotating within this structure, defined by a key support area around 116500 and an upper resistance line. Having been rejected from the top, the price is now completing another downward correction and is approaching the channel's foundational support for a crucial test. The primary working hypothesis is a long scenario, predicated on the proven resilience of this support level. A confirmed upward rebound from this 116500 zone would signal that the accumulation within the channel is continuing and likely to resolve upwards. Therefore, the tp is logically and strategically placed at 122300, as this level not only coincides perfectly with the channel's upper resistance line but also represents the completion of the internal rotation, setting the stage for a potential continuation of the larger uptrend.

Euro will rebound from support line of wedge to resistance levelHello traders, I want share with you my opinion about Euro. After breaking out decisively from a prior downward channel, the euro initiated a significant structural shift, moving from a clear downward trend into a new and more volatile market condition. This transition has led to the development of a large broadening wedge pattern, which is characterised by higher highs and lower lows, indicating an expansion in volatility as both buyers and sellers fight for control. The boundaries of this struggle are well-defined by a major buyer zone around 1.1650 and a formidable seller zone near 1.1750. Currently, the pair is in a corrective phase, moving downwards within the wedge after a recent upward rebound was rejected from the upper resistance line. The primary working hypothesis is a long scenario, which anticipates that this downward correction will find strong support at the confluence of the wedge's ascending support line and the horizontal buyer zone around 1.1650. A confirmed bounce from this critical area of support would validate the integrity of the broadening wedge pattern and likely trigger another powerful upward rotation. Therefore, the TP is strategically placed at the 1.1750 resistance level. Please share this idea with your friends and click Boost 🚀

GOLD - Price can continue to decline to support levelHi guys, this is my overview for XAUUSD, feel free to check it and write your feedback in comments👊
After exiting a prior wedge formation, the price entered a prolonged phase of sideways movement.
This established a wide flat channel, with a clear resistance zone near $3400 and a strong support base around $3255.
For an extended period, the asset rotated within this range, making several attempts to breach both the upper and lower boundaries.
The most recent rally was forcefully rejected from the resistance area at $3400, indicating strong selling pressure.
This rejection initiated a significant downward impulse, which has now positioned the price in the lower half of the consolidation range.
I expect that after a brief upward retest, the bearish momentum will resume, pushing the price down to its primary target at the $3255 support level.

Hi everyone, FXPROFESSOR here 👨🏫
From this moment forward, I will no longer be posting targets or trade setups here on TradingView. Instead, I’ll be focusing 100% on education only for here in Tradinfview.
Why? Because over time I’ve learned that even when traders receive the right charts, most still struggle to trade them effectively. So, from now on, FX Professor Crypto content here will be strictly educational — designed to teach you how to read and react to the markets like a professional. Unfortunately I cannot be posting on Tradingview frequent updates like I do all day. Education is always better for you guys. And i am very happy to share here with you what matters the most.
🧩 In today’s post, we dive into one of the most misunderstood formations: the wedge pattern.
Most resources show wedges breaking cleanly up or down — but real price action is messier.
🎥 I recorded a video a few days ago showing exactly how BTC respected a wedge formation.
⚠️ Note: Unfortunately, TradingView doesn’t play the audio of that clip — apologies that you can’t hear the live commentary — but the visuals are clear enough to follow the logic. (there is no advertising of any kind on the video so i hope i don't get banned again - i did make a mistake the last time and will avoid it-the community here is awesome and needs to stay clean and within the rules of TV).
Here’s what happened:
🔸 A clean wedge formed over several days
🔸 We anticipated a fake move to the downside, grabbing liquidity
🔸 BTC rebounded off support around a level marked in advance
🔸 Then price re-entered the wedge, flipping support into resistance
The lesson?
📉 Often price will exit the wedge in the wrong direction first — trapping retail traders — before making the real move. This is a classic liquidity trap strategy, exercised by the 'market'.
💡 Remember:
Wedges often compress price until it "runs out of space"
The initial breakout is often a trap
The true move tends to come after liquidity is taken
The timing of the 'exit' has a lot to do with the direction. In the future we will cover more examples so pay attention.
I stayed long throughout this move because the overall market context remained bullish — and patience paid off.
Let this be a reminder: it’s not about guessing the direction — it’s about understanding the mechanics.
More educational breakdowns to come — keep learning, keep growing.
One Love,
The FX PROFESSOR 💙

Missed the Altseason Start? CHZ/USDT Is the Opportunity You NeedMany traders feel they’ve missed the start of the altseason, but CHZ/USDT is offering a second chance.
On the weekly timeframe, CHZ is breaking out of a long-term falling wedge pattern — a classic bullish reversal structure that often precedes explosive moves.
Combining this with Fibonacci extensions, we identify 4 major upside targets:
Target 1: 0.618 Fib - 0.59 – initial breakout confirmation
Target 2: 0.786 Fib - 0.74 – mid-term resistance level
Target 3: 1.272 Fib – 1.19 - extended bullish leg
Target 4: 1.618 Fib – 1.50 - full potential of the wedge breakout
CHZ is currently undervalued and positioned near its bottom, making it one of the best risk/reward plays in the current market for those who still want exposure to the altseason wave.
$ETH - Nothing has changedEthereum is showing a significant breakout setup after years of consolidation within a large symmetrical wedge structure (A–B–C–D pattern). The price has just tested the upper boundary of the wedge, and momentum indicators suggest a potential mid-term bullish continuation.
Key Observations:
ABCD Harmonic Structure: Price has respected the harmonic range with D forming a strong higher low near $1,500–$1,600, showing buyer absorption at key demand levels.
Fibonacci Confluence:
The 161.8% extension aligns with ~$5,800, forming the first major target.
A 261.8% extension pushes towards ~$7,000, aligning with the marked "Target" zone.
Volume Profile: Heavy accumulation between $1,500–$2,500 with low resistance above $4,000 suggests a breakout could accelerate quickly.
MACD/RSI Divergence: The momentum oscillator shows a triple bullish divergence (higher lows on momentum vs. lower lows on price), and the downtrend line on the MACD histogram has been broken—often a precursor to sustained upside.
Moving Averages: The 50/100 EMA crossover on the 2-week chart is imminent, historically a strong macro signal.
Bullish Scenario:
A clear close above $4,000 confirms wedge breakout.
Short-term targets: $4,600 (weak high) and $5,800 (Fib 161.8%).
Macro target: $7,000+ if bullish momentum holds through Q4.
Bearish Risk:
Failure to hold $3,500 could lead to retests of $2,500 or even $2,000 (mid-wedge support).
Watch for macroeconomic shocks (rate cuts, liquidity shifts) which have previously caused retracements in crypto markets.
What’s next?
ETH is approaching a make-or-break moment. If the breakout holds, this could be the start of the next major leg up. A strong weekly close above $4,000–$4,200 is critical for validation.
