Trading with Multiple Time Frames: A Balanced ApproachWhy Use Multiple Time Frames ? In trading, understanding flow and target areas across different time frames is essential for precision. Each time frame provides a unique insight: Higher Time Frame (HTP) : Establishes the direction and target areas. Focal Time Frame : Serves as your primary or main frame of focus for trading decisions. Lower Time Frame (LTP) : Confirms the HTP’s direction and offers entry/exit points. Examples: If you are position trading (holding longer than 1 month) you focal time frame is the monthly, the weekly is the time frame that offers entry/exits and the Quarterly is the time frame that establishes the direction and target areas. If you are swing trading (holding longer than 1 week) then you focal time frame is the weekly, LTP is the daily for entry/exists and HTP is the monthly. If you trade intraday then HTP is the hourly, focal is 15min and LTP is the 5min. 🔎 Key Principles for Multi-Time Frame Analysis HTP Determines the Flow: Strong resistance or support on the higher time frame drives the market flow. Example: If HTP resistance is strong, the LTP will typically trend downward​ LTP Monitors the Setup: Use lower time frames to observe and confirm HTP predictions. Lower time frame bars should progressively move away from strong HTP levels​ Focus on Nearby and Further Out Areas: Nearby areas provide short-term strength or weakness. If a nearby area breaks, targets shift to further-out energy zones​ 🧩 Example Strategy: Integrating Time Frames Step 1: Identify a strong support/resistance area on the HTP (e.g., Weekly Chart). Step 2: Use the focal time frame (e.g., Daily Chart) to monitor for trend setups. Step 3: Zoom into the LTP (e.g., Hourly Chart) to: Confirm the setup. Look for price reactions and ideal entry points. Step 4: Set targets based on the HTP structure, while managing risk on the LTP. 🎯 Tips for Target Setting Targets are often defined where price terminates energy (e.g., HTP resistance/support levels). Monitor flow: If LTP flow aligns with HTP direction, the trade is on track. If nearby energy breaks, shift your target to the next further-out area​ 🚀 Final Thoughts The HTP shows the big picture; the LTP provides execution clarity. Always let the HTP guide you, and the LTP confirm your trade entries/exits. Remember: “Strength is strength until proven otherwise.” By combining multiple time frames, traders can trade confidently, anticipate targets, and stay in sync with the market flow.

Is the financial system entering a new era?This chart is one of the clearest and most striking indicators of the S&P 500 and Monetary Expansion around the world on a monthly basis. Is history repeating itself or is the financial system entering a new era ? Markets are rising again after the Mortgage Real Estate Crisis in 2008 and the Covid-19 Pandemic in 2020. But what is behind this rise? Could the fact that the S&P 500 has held its value while the money supply has skyrocketed be a harbinger of a new growth cycle? What is remarkable; 
In the 2008 Real Estate Crisis, this ratio, which had been steadily moving above the trend line, was pulled down sharply and trapped below the trend line. For many years, there was an invisible pressure to maintain the trend below this line. Whenever the trend line started to be tested again, this rate was pushed down again by the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020 . January 2024 is a historic turning point; 
It managed to rise above the trend line after exactly 16 years and entered a steady uptrend. This development sends strong signals that a brand new economic order has been established in the world. So what happens now? 
After testing a new ATH level , what crisis or crises await us in the markets? Or is the financial system heading for a completely different course from the historical scenario this time?

Despite this, seasonal trends towards year-end may provide a boost, although the declining market breadth suggests underlying challenges. - Key Insights: Investors should be cautious yet optimistic about the S&P 500 as we approach potential seasonal rallies. The mixed signals from market breadth and expert commentary on overvaluation underscore the importance of strategic trading. Focus on key support levels to confirm bullish trends and prepare to act if resistance levels are breached. - Expert Analysis: Market experts express a cautiously optimistic sentiment, with some anticipating a "Santa Rally" while others warn of the risks associated with overvaluation. The anticipation of potential Federal Reserve rate cuts adds to the bullish sentiment, though concerns over rising inflation and jobless claims need to be monitored closely. - Price Targets: Based on the current analysis, next week’s price targets and stop levels are set as follows: - Next week targets: T1 = 6,100, T2 = 6,200 - Stop levels: S1 = 6,040, S2 = 6,020 - News Impact: Key economic data releases, particularly the Federal Reserve meeting on December 18, are expected to play a significant role in market movements.

SPX500/ Trades Between (ATH) ZoneS&P 500 Technical Analysis The price has dropped from its all-time high (ATH) which is 6,099. It is currently trading within the ATH zone, which is located between 6,099 and 6,058, and continues to move toward 6,058. For the bullish trend to be confirmed, the price must break the previous high resistance at 6,099 with a confirmed close of a 1H or 4H candle. This would pave the way for the price to reach a new all-time high (ATH) at 6,143. The price is currently trading toward 6,058. If it breaks this level with a confirmed 4-hour candle close, the bearish trend will be activated, targeting the 6,022 level. Key Levels: Pivot Point: 6058 Resistance Levels: 6099, 6143, 6185 Support Levels: 6058, 6022, 5971

How Short Sales Indicate Buying ActivityA Beginner-Friendly Guide to How Short Sales Indicate Buying Activity █ What is a Short Sale? A short sale is when someone sells a stock they don't actually own, usually because they believe the price will drop. They borrow the stock, sell it at the current price, and hope to buy it back later at a lower price to return to the lender. However, not all short sales are for speculation! In fact, about half of all trades in the market are short sales, which seems strange unless we look deeper. QUICK SUMMARY 🧐 What is a Short Sale? A short sale is when someone sells a stock they don't own, hoping to buy it back later at a lower price. Normally, people think short sales mean traders are betting that the stock will go down. But there's more to the story! 💡 Why Are Short Sales Important for Understanding Buying? About half of all trades in the market are short sales! This means there's something deeper going on. Market-makers (people who help match buyers and sellers) play a big role here. 👥 What Do Market-Makers Do? They offer to sell a stock at a slightly higher price and buy at a slightly lower price. When someone buys a stock from a market-maker, the market-maker short-sells the stock (because they don't own it yet). ✅ This means: When you see a short sale, it's often because someone is buying from a market-maker. Therefore, short volume (total short sales) is a good indicator of buying activity! █ Why Short Sales Reflect Buying Activity Market-makers (MMs) play a crucial role in ensuring there are always buyers and sellers available in the market. Here's how they do it: ⚪ Market-Maker Role: MMs quote both a buy price (bid) and a sell price (offer) for stocks. For example, they may offer to: Buy at $19.95 (bid) Sell at $20.00 (offer) ⚪ Short Sales in Practice: When an MM offers to sell at $20.00, they often don't own the stock; they are "shorting" it to facilitate the sale. This means: If an investor buys the stock at $20.00, the MM's sale is reported as a short sale. If an investor sells the stock to the MM at $19.95, it is reported as a regular (long) sale. Therefore: Short sales = Investors buying the stock Long sales = Investors selling the stock █ Why This Matters Since MMs are involved in most trades, short sales can be used as an indicator of buying activity. The more short sales there are, the more buying activity is happening in the market. ⚪ Dark Pools and Short Sales Data Dark pools are private trading venues where large investors can trade without showing their orders publicly. These venues still have MMs who facilitate trades. Even though trades happen "in the dark," the MM behavior (shorting to sell) still applies. FINRA collects and publishes data on short sales in dark pools. This data can help us see the relationship between short sales and stock price movements. ⚪ Testing the Idea When researchers tested this idea, they found: Higher Short Volume = Higher Stock Prices: On days when short sales were above 50% of the total volume, the average stock price increased during the day. When short sales were below 50%, the average stock price decreased. The Trend is Clear: When short sales make up a significant part of the market activity, it indicates strong buying interest. █ The Findings When short volume is high (above 35%), stocks tend to go up during the day. When short volume is low (below 35%), stocks are more likely to go down. Example: If short volume = 50% → Expect higher buying activity and potential stock gains. If short volume = 20% → Expect lower buying activity and potential stock declines. 🚀 Practical Tips for Traders Investors can use short sale data from dark pools to: Identify potential buying opportunities. Understand market sentiment (whether people are more likely to buy or sell). Anticipate short-term stock price movements based on the level of short sales. Watch short volume data: High short volume can signal strong buying interest. Use FINRA data: You can find free short sale data on FINRA's website to track these trends. Be curious: This data isn't widely used yet, so understanding it can give you an edge! █ Summary ⚪ Short sales are often a sign that investors are buying stocks. ⚪ Dark pool data offers valuable insights into market trends. ⚪ Monitoring short sale volume can help predict intraday stock gains and understand market behavior. ----------------- Disclaimer This is an educational study for entertainment purposes only.

SPX 6086 - VIX and Put/Call Ratio : the market combines it all.How to read the Chart? SPX in main picture an below - with own scales- you find the Put/Call Ratio and and bottom the VIX. Put/call Ratio tells us, how much euphoric is in the market. Values below 0.65 , market is bullish. VIX tells us, how much volatilty is in the market. Values below 13 tells us normally, that market is prepared for larger or bigger movements. Values also important, for calculate price of warrants etc. Low VIX cheaper prices for warrants. So: in the chart now you can see several time stamps with green marks on price SPX, VIX and P/C Ratio. The meaning of this all: high coincidence with low values in VIX and P/C Ratio will high indicator for downward moves. The deeper values on VIX and P/C Ratio, the stronger the downward move.
