Reaver's Incursion

Recommended Posts

Awesome info! Thanks for the comments Tin and Walter. Really helps open my eyes to other possibilities...which is one of the main purposes of this thread in the first place. Good stuff....much appreciated.

Looks like price broke through the lower bracket I was waiting for....I will re-evaluate my viewpoint tonight. Good learning experience for me....

 

 

Walter and Tin may have just picked a top!

 

This is why I need to be able to be at home...so I can take advantage and stay on top of smaller moves like this, etc instead of having to place trade positions mostly at the end of the day...not being able to watch intently enough can really limit agility and trading results....

 

But hey if I can still make it being handicapped in my trading due to my day job...then once I am able to pay even more attention...that in theory will help...but then again, maybe my having this type of distance from the market is what helps...

 

aahhh, one day soon...

I dont have access to futures data anymore, so I don't know what price did. If you want to place a short, watch for the next bear flag to form and short a lower high in the flag channel :)

Welcome to the forum saw.

 

While you seem to really like what Reaver has presented here, feel free to do the same. As you'll see in your time here, TL is a community of giving and receiving. You should start a thread and introduce yourself to the forum and tell us about your trading. What are you hoping to gain and provide the forum?

 

Once again, welcome to our little forum my friend.

I'm not a trader yet. I'm in graduate school working on a PhD. in finance. Some of the theories mentioned in this forum may be helpful in my studies and research. Be assured if I use any of the ideas here in my dissertation, credit will be given to the author accordingly.

So far no trades catch my eye....still watching wheat, but now, looks like a false breakout to the downside....reversion to the 5 day balance on decreasing volume...volatility just shit the bed too. Oh well, will keep an eye open and see what happens......

now you have to understand that on momentum conditions this is too risky thing to do... if you sense market is weak... (cycle conditions) then this false breaks work pretty good... cheers Walter.

Walter...that failed breakdown/breakout I wouldn't classify as high risk...I think it's a real low risk setup. You've got a nice area for a stop placement and when people see a failed pattern, those who got short are gonna have to cover and fuel a rally (in that particular trade's case). That's one of my most favorite setups to play.

Okay, looks like wheat dropped to 8184, well below the breakout point...one more major support level at about 8131 (approximate, nothing here is an exact science), and if that is breached....looks like a long drop may come around....but I am not in the business of predicting the future lol...I am just curious to see how a CT trade would have worked....wheat has tested the bracket two days in a row and made a solid break through support...so we'll see.

Yeah I agree....that would be quite a nice move...if the previous balance area limit gets broken...it may be a nice trade after all..

 

Like Stan Kroll said: they slide faster than they glide....so we'll see....

Well so far looks like the breakout to the downside didn't follow through...hit support at appx 8130 and bounced...Will take a look at all available info once I get my data squared away.

Price closed at 8284...below the downside breakout point...market is out of balance. Volatility increased significantly.....Nothing really new so far...

 

 

Reaver, can you eventually post a chart of that, got me curious... jejeje... cheers Walter.

Price tested the 5 day bracket on Monday, but closed within the bracket range...yesterday the price broke out, and bounced off September's bracket limit low......volatility greatly increased, but no significant change in volume....the longer term MMA seems like it may be getting ready to roll over. hmmm

 

If price breaks through this last support..it could be a long drop.

    • Date: 22nd November 2024.   BTC flirts with $100K, Stocks higher, Eurozone PMI signals recession risk.   Asia & European Sessions:   Geopolitical risks are back in the spotlight on fears of escalation in the Ukraine-Russia after Russia reportedly used a new ICBM to retaliate against Ukraine’s use of US and UK made missiles to attack inside Russia. The markets continue to assess the election results as President-elect Trump fills in his cabinet choices, with the key Treasury Secretary spot still open. The Fed’s rate path continues to be debated with a -25 bp December cut seen as 50-50. Earnings season is coming to an end after mixed reports, though AI remains a major driver. Profit taking and rebalancing into year-end are adding to gyrations too. Wall Street rallied, led by the Dow’s 1.06% broadbased pop. The S&P500 advanced 0.53% and the NASDAQ inched up 0.03%. Asian stocks rose after  Nvidia’s rally. Nikkei added 1% to 38,415.32 after the Tokyo inflation data slowed to 2.3% in October from 2.5% in the prior month, reaching its lowest level since January. The rally was also supported by chip-related stocks tracked Nvidia. Overnight-indexed swaps indicate that it’s certain the Reserve Bank of New Zealand will cut its policy rate by 50 basis points on Nov. 27, with a 22% chance of a 75 basis points reduction. European stocks futures climbed even though German Q3 GDP growth revised down to 0.1% q/q from the 0.2% q/q reported initially. Cryptocurrency market has gained approximately $1 trillion since Trump’s victory in the Nov. 5 election. Recent announcement for the SEC boosted cryptos. Chair Gary Gensler will step down on January 20, the day Trump is set to be inaugurated. Gensler has pushed for more protections for crypto investors. MicroStrategy Inc.’s plans to accelerate purchases of the token, and the debut of options on US Bitcoin ETFs also support this rally. Trump’s transition team has begun discussions on the possibility of creating a new White House position focused on digital asset policy.     Financial Markets Performance: The US Dollar recovered overnight and closed at 107.00. Bitcoin currently at 99,300,  flirting with a run toward the 100,000 level. The EURUSD drifts below 1.05, the GBPUSD dips to June’s bottom at 1.2570, while USDJPY rebounded to 154.94. The AUDNZD spiked to 2-year highs amid speculation the RBNZ will cut the official cash rate by more than 50 bps next week. Oil surged 2.12% to $70.46. Gold spiked to 2,697 after escalation alerts between Russia and Ukraine. Heightened geopolitical tensions drove investors toward safe-haven assets. Gold has surged by 30% this year. Haven demand balanced out the pressure from a strong USD following mixed US labor data. Silver rose 0.9% to 31.38, while palladium increased by 0.9% to 1,040.85 per ounce. Platinum remained unchanged. Always trade with strict risk management.
