Patience

Price is in a nice sequence for a continuation shortPrice tapped the previous HTF high in the form of a 3-touch structure before starting a bearish move with almost perfect sequence. After the first impulsive move, the continuation structures became larger further into the run. We are now trading through an AoI to the left, and price is forming a bigger continuation bear flag structure. Considering we are further in the run, I am looking for a clear confirmation to enter a short trade, preferably with 2x bearish H1 high-test candles on top of the structure or a H4 reversal candlestick pattern. * ** *** **** ***** 👉 The pairs I publish here are usually discussed in detail in my Weekly Forex Forecast (WFF) and are now showing further developments or price action worth mentioning.

Continuation within a HTF consolidation, wait for confirmation Price is in a larger consolidation phase for the better part of August. After tapping the previous low of the structure at around 1.158, price formed an impulsive leg and is now forming a bullish continuation. Considering Labor Day Monday in the US, it could take some time for price to finish the structure before we see the next impulsive move to the upside. * ** *** **** ***** 👉 The pairs I publish here are usually discussed in detail in my Weekly Forex Forecast (WFF) and are now showing further developments or price action worth mentioning.

Detailed analysis of consolidation and growth phases in Nifty. Look at the chart of Nifty carefully. The Circles C1, C2, C3 and C4 show the consolidation phases of Nifty in last 125 Months each time after it makes a new high. Th period between the circles is the growth phase. We will study it carefully and try to derive the conclusions thereoff. To the onset let me tell you that stock market investment are subject to Macro and Micro risks. It is not necessary that the lightning will strike twice at the same spot. But we will use this data and try to measure the statistical possibility of growth and rate at which our investments can grow. First let us look at Consolidation Phase C1 phase and growth phase that happened thereafter: C1 Starts in March 2015 when Nifty made a high of 9119. Post that it consolidated for 24 months and came out of consolidation when it gave a closing above previous high in March 2017 when Nifty closed at 9173. Growth Phase 1 (34 Months) . When Nifty has given a closing above previous high it embarks the journey of growth. It might momentarily go below the past high in some cases but we still consider that whole phase as a growth phase for better understanding and calculation purpose. The next high that Nifty makes is 12430 in January 2020. Calculations: C1 and Growth Phase 1. So the actual growth achieved = (12430-9191) = 3311. Which was a 36.3% growth achieved in a Bull Run that lasted 34 months. Which equates to roughly 1.06% Growth per month during the Bull Phase. If you look at the cumulative growth (34 months of bull run + 24 months of consolidation period = 58 months) we get 36.3/58 = 0.62% Growth per month. (During the whole Bull and Bear/Consolidation cycle). Now let us look at Consolidation Phase C2 phase and growth phase that happened thereafter: C2 Starts in January 2020 when Nifty made a high of 12430. Post that it consolidated for 10 months and came out of consolidation when it gave a closing above previous high in November 2020 when Nifty closed at 12968. Growth Phase 2 (11 Months) . When Nifty has given a closing above previous high it embarks the journey of growth. It might momentarily go below the past high in some cases but we still consider that whole phase as a growth phase for better understanding and calculation purpose. The next high that Nifty makes is 18604 in October 21. Calculations: C2 and Growth Phase 2 So the actual growth achieved = (18604-12430) = 6174. Which was a 49.67% growth achieved in a Bull Run that lasted 11 months. Which equates to roughly 4.5% Growth per month during the Bull Phase. If you look at the cumulative growth (11 months of bull run + 10 months of consolidation period = 21 months) we get 49.67/21 = 2.37% Growth per month. (During the whole Bull and Bear/Consolidation cycle). Now let us look at Consolidation Phase C3 phase and growth phase that happened thereafter: C3 Starts in October 2021 when Nifty made a high of 18604. Post that it consolidated for 13 months and came out of consolidation when it gave a closing above previous high in November 2022 when Nifty closed at 18758. Growth Phase 3 (22 Months). When Nifty has given a closing above previous high it embarks the journey of growth. It might momentarily go below the past high in some cases but we still consider that whole phase as a growth phase for better understanding and calculation purpose. The next high that Nifty makes is 26277 in September 2024. Calculations: C3 and Growth Phase 3. So the actual growth achieved = (26277-18604) = 7673. Which was a 41.2% growth achieved in a Bull Run that lasted 22 months. Which equates to roughly 1.87% Growth per month during the Bull phase. If you look at the cumulative growth (22 months of bull run + 13 months of consolidation period = 35 months) we get 41.2/35 = 1.17% Growth per month. (During the whole Bull and Bear/Consolidation cycle). Right Now we are in C4 which is the consolidation phase which started in September 2024. Next trading day is in September 2025 so we have almost completed 12 months of consolidation phase. When exactly this phase will be over we can not say but let us look at statistical possibility: (Again let me retrate performance of past can not guarantee performance of future but let us see what statistics has to say). If we look at data from C1, C2 and C3: Average Consolidation phase length has been 24 (C1) + 10 (C2) + 13 (C3)= 15.6 Months (Almost 12 months have passed so investors should keep the faith and have little more patience). Average Bull Phase or the Growth phase post completion of Consolidation lasts for 34 (Growth Phase 1) + 11 (Growth Phase 2) + 22 (Growth Phase 3)= 22.33 Months (So there is a huge probability the phase that everyone will enjoy is near by and we are certainly going to be rewarded sooner than later.) Average Growth during the Growth Phases= 1.06(Growth Phase 1) + 4.5(Growth Phase 2) + 1.87(Growth Phase 3) = 7.43/3 = 2.48% per month. Average Cumulative Growth considering both Growth phases and Consolidation phase = 0.62(58 Months during C1 and Growth Phase 1) + 2.37(21 months during C2 and Growth Phase 2) + 1.87(35 months of C3 and Growth phase 3) = 4.86/3 = 1.62%. Conclusion: / After every high there is a substantial consolidation phase. / If you keep patience during consolidation phase you will be rewarded handsomely by equity market.

What Bees Can Teach Us About Trading!At first glance, bees and trading seem worlds apart. But look closer, and you’ll find powerful lessons traders can learn from the hive: 🏗️ Discipline & Structure Every bee knows its role and sticks to it. Traders too must follow their plan with precision. 🛡️ Risk Management Forager bees never all leave at once; they manage risk for the colony. Traders should also protect capital and avoid going “all in” on one setup. 🔍 Pattern Recognition Bees know when and where to collect nectar. Traders rely on recognizing price patterns and market cycles. ⏳ Patience & Consistency A single bee’s contribution is small, but millions of trips create honey. Trading success also comes from consistent small gains that compound. 🧘 Emotional Control Bees don’t let fear or greed guide them; they follow their system. The same applies to traders who stay calm and disciplined. 👉 In short: Trade like a bee — structured, patient, and focused on the bigger picture. 📚 Always follow your trading plan regarding entry, risk management, and trade management. Good luck! All Strategies Are Good; If Managed Properly! ~Richard Nasr Disclosure: I am part of Trade Nation's Influencer program and receive a monthly fee for using their TradingView charts in my analysis.

EURUSD seems back on track for long continuation.Price did tap into a bigger liquidity pool at around 1.142 and showed a strong change in momentum with an impulsive move to the upside. Price is now in a consolidation phase and left a small Liq.Point at 1.1516, which could act as a base for a continuation structure. The longer it takes for price to tap into said area, the better. I am now looking for a minimum of a 2-touch bullish continuation to enter a long trade into the previous highs. *** **** ***** 👉 The pairs I publish here are usually discussed in detail in my Weekly Forex Forecast (WFF) and are now showing further developments worth mentioning.

EURNZD shows signs for a continuation long.Price did finish the initial selloff into the start of the HTF 3-touch structure with a 1-2-3 move and started to aggressively reverse. We saw price turning bullish again and is now trading through an AoI and starting to form a consolidation. Price left a small Liq.P, which could act as a base, and if we see price stalling in this area and forming some kind of bull flag, that would be deliberate PA for a continuation to the upside, with the previous high as initial target. *** **** ***** The pairs I publish here are usually discussed in detail in my Weekly Forex Forecast (WFF) and are now showing further developments worth mentioning.

I am overall still bearish biased, but considering we have gaps to the top of the structure we might get an opportunity for a short-term counter long trade to finish the consolidation before we see the next bigger move to the downside. 📈 Simplified Trading Rules: > Follow a Valid Sequence > Wait for Continuation > Confirm Entry (valid candlestick pattern) > Know When to Exit (SL placement) Remember, technical analysis is subjective; develop your own approach.

AUDUSD looks promising for a continuationThis pair presents a potential trade opportunity in the form of a short continuation. The price did reach a significant Area of Interest (AoI) in form of an expanding 3-touch structure before turning around. Price did close outside the structure on the H4 with a candlestick reversal pattern and printed a bearish high-test candle on the daily timeframe. This clearly shows a shift in momentum and I am now waiting for a lower time frame (LTF) continuation pattern to confirm the direction and a valid candlestick pattern for entry. 📈 Simplified Trading Rules: > Follow a Valid Sequence > Wait for Continuation > Confirm Entry (valid candlestick pattern) > Know When to Exit (SL placement) Remember, technical analysis is subjective; develop your own approach.

Hold on, here is the real deal.District court ruling on the joint motion (June12) still pending—no update yet. Judge Torres’ ruling – could come any day; depends on district court docket. Appeals proceedings remain on hold until at least August 15, 2025. XRP spot ETF decisions delayed: SEC ETF decisions, comment periods suggest Franklin Templeton: very likely by late July ProShares: by June 25 Grayscale: likely October Bitwise: through June to October CPI must fall under 2.0% Oil must retrace to the $70s Fed must signal a real cut, not conditional pause DXY must fall below 103 Current War that we all are focused is going to be ended swiftly. Until then, Hold Your Horses!

May 26 US30Let's get to work... Price at the moment is trending down, creating lower highs and lower lows on the 4hr. However it broke structure on the 1hr and is trending upward. I'm going to wait for price to get to 42,055 level and wait for it to break and retest for a buy or break structure for a sell. Caution. Monday is a holiday so I most likely won't trade until Tuesday. And ultimately whichever way price goes I'm going to get out at my net key level. Have fun, stay safe and enjoy your journey

Why Traders Chase — and Always LoseHard truth: You don’t miss opportunities. You chase noise. Let’s break down the real reason you keep “missing moves”: 1. FOMO is not urgency — it’s confusion. When you enter because “everyone’s talking about it,” you’re not trading a setup. You’re reacting to social proof. 2. Volatility ≠ opportunity. Big moves look attractive, but if they’re not in your plan — they’re distractions, not trades. 3. The market rewards patience, not activity. Every click, every chart, every refresh feeds your dopamine — not your edge. 🚫 Solution? Stop scanning. Start filtering. Use tools that prioritize structure over noise. That’s why we built TrendGo — to give clarity in chaos and help you avoid traps masked as opportunity. 📌 Don’t chase. Build your edge.

"Godshield’s Gold Play: Going Short or Waiting for ConfirmationThe XAU/USD M30 chart from April 27, 2025, at 08:57 AM WAT shows gold at $3,302.27, after a significant drop from $3,421.64 earlier in the session on April 26. The chart highlights a bearish move with multiple annotations—labels like "Sell," "PUT," "BOS" (Break of Structure), and "OB" (Order Block) indicate a strong downtrend. The price broke below a key level around $3,307, which aligns with a bearish order block labeled "Sell" and "OB," where sellers stacked orders. The "BOS" label shows a break of structure, confirming a bearish shift with lower highs and lower lows. The trendlines (red and yellow) form a descending channel, guiding price lower, with a recent test of the upper trendline around $3,316.98 before the drop.The question is: am I going short now at $3,302.27, or waiting for confirmation? Let’s run through my checklist. I start with harmonic patterns—while no specific XABCD structure like a shark is labeled here, the chart’s bearish momentum aligns with my earlier analysis of a bearish shark on April 25, suggesting the downtrend is continuing. Market structure confirms bearish continuation—the break of structure below $3,307 (labeled "BOS") shows sellers in control, with lower highs and lower lows on H4 and H1. The bearish order block around $3,307, marked "Sell" and "OB," is where smart money distributed, and price has reacted strongly after retesting this zone. Volume profile isn’t shown, but I’d expect high volume at $3,307, with a Fair Value Gap below acting as a magnet, likely near $3,293.66, as indicated by the chart’s price levels. Top-down analysis aligns—H4 is bearish, H1 and M30 confirm the downtrend, and I’m looking for an M15 retest of $3,307 as resistance for a sell. Heikin Ashi candles (though not visible here) are likely red, as the chart is titled "Heikin," supporting the downtrend. Fibonacci extensions (not drawn) from the high at $3,421.64 to the low at $3,293.66 point to a target near $3,289.46, the next support on the chart. Gann angles (implied by the trendlines) align with this target. MACD and RSI aren’t shown, but based on my system, I’d expect a bearish crossover with a negative histogram and RSI below 50, likely showing bearish divergence at the $3,316.98 high. Risk management is set—sell at $3,307, stop-loss above the recent high at $3,316.98, take-profit at $3,289.46, giving a 1:2 reward ratio. News and liquidity traps are clear—no fake spikes above $3,307 yet, though I’m watching for them, especially with the volatility noted earlier this week (gold hit $3,499.99 on April 22, per my previous chart).Given this setup, I’m going short now at $3,302.27. The price has already retested the $3,307 order block and rejected it, as shown by the "PUT" label and the drop to $3,302.27. Waiting for confirmation isn’t necessary here—the break of structure, order block rejection, and bearish momentum are my green lights. My target’s $3,289.46, with a stop-loss at $3,316.98, locking in a solid risk-reward ratio. I’ve been refining this strategy for six months, backtesting like a beast, and I’m confident in this hunt. That said, I’ve missed momentum signals before—like on April 22 when I didn’t catch the RSI overbought signal at $3,499.99—so I’m staying sharp.The asker mentioned waiting for confirmation at $3,300, but that’s not a level on this chart. The closest support is $3,293.66, which aligns with my take-profit. Waiting for $3,300 might mean missing the move, as the bearish momentum is already in motion, and my target is below that level. If price consolidates or shows signs of reversal (like a bullish Heikin Ashi candle on M15), I’d reassess, but for now, I’m in. What do you think, fam? Am I right to go short now at $3,302.27, or would you wait for a different confirmation? Drop your thoughts below—I’m curious to hear how you’d play this XAU/USD setup! If you’re one of the two ready to join me at Academia for Forex Trading, let’s talk—we’ll hunt these markets together.

Why you should WAIT for trades to come to YOU!In this video, we dive deep into one of the most underrated but powerful habits that separates consistently profitable traders from the rest: waiting for the trade to come to you. It sounds simple, even obvious. But in reality, most traders—especially newer ones—feel the constant urge to do something. They scan for setups all day, jump in at the first sign of movement, and confuse activity with progress. That mindset usually leads to emotional trading, overtrading, and eventually burnout. If you've ever felt the pressure to chase price, force trades, or trade just because you're bored… this video is for you. I’ll walk you through: 1. Why chasing trades destroys your edge—even when the setup “kind of” looks right 2. How waiting allows you to trade from a position of strength, not desperation 3. The psychological shift that happens when you stop trading to feel busy and start trading to feel precise 4. How the pros use waiting as a weapon, not a weakness The truth is, trading is a game of probabilities and precision. And that means you don’t need 10 trades a day—you need a few good ones a week that truly align with your plan. Patience doesn’t mean doing nothing, it means doing the right thing at the right time. And when you develop the skill to sit back, trust your process, and wait for price to come to your level… everything changes. Your confidence grows. Your equity curve smooths out. And most importantly, your decision-making gets sharper. So if you're tired of overtrading, feeling frustrated, or constantly second-guessing your entries—take a breath, slow it down, and start thinking like a sniper instead of a machine gun. Let the market come to you. That’s where the real edge is.

If the price drops below $2,698, it could retest the support zone between $2,690 and $2,684. Fibonacci Insights: Key Retracement Levels: Based on the chart, critical Fibonacci retracement levels seem to align near $2,705 (0.382) and $2,690 (0.618), making these levels important for potential reversals. Recommendations for Tomorrow: For Bullish Traders: Wait for the price to stabilize above $2,718 and look for buy (long) opportunities targeting $2,725 or beyond.
