30 Months Channel of Nifty suggesting Father line supportThe 30 month channel in which Nifty is travelling seems to suggest that we are near 3 critical support zones. We might see a bottom formation within this week or the next week beginning. Perhaps the pain of retail investors might end soon with chances of sectoral rotation. Let us have a look at medium to long term outlook. As we have indicated time and again Nifty comes to meet the father line and take ashirwaad of father once in a while this is that phase. Last time Nifty came to take father line support was in October 2023. It has been more than one year now and it was imperative for Nifty to meet the Father line. FIIs helped in the process by selling enmass. Three Major Supports for Nifty are: 1) 200 day EMA or Father line at 23542. 2) High before Lok Sabha Election Results 23352. 3) Parallel Channel Bottom near 22845. Either of these 3 levels can be the come back zones. Three Major Resistances for Nifty going forward will be: 1) 24040 Critical short term trend line resistance. 2) Major Mother line (50 days EMA) Resistance at 24608. 3) Shoulder of the Head and Shoulder Breakdown from where the free fall started 25436. 4) Other important resistances will be at 26277 (Previous All Time High) 5) Channel Top resistance will be in the zone of 27037 to 27705.

SILVER (XAGUSD): Important Resistance Ahead! Your PlanSILVER is currently testing a significant area where a daily horizontal resistance meets a descending trend line. Depending on how the price reacts to this zone, there are two possible scenarios. In a bearish scenario, traders should look for a 4-hour candle to close below the resistance level on a 4-hour timeframe before selling the market. If an engulfing candle forms and closes below 30.65, a bearish trend towards the 30.00 psychological level is anticipated. On the other hand, in a bullish scenario, watch an inverted head and shoulders pattern on a 1H time frame. 30.92 is its neckline.a breakout above the highlighted blue area and an hourly candle closing above it would signal a strong bullish move with potential for further upward movement. Important fundamental news expected today could act as a catalyst for a breakout in either direction.

Is the bear market bounce in the AUDJPY over? 16 Risk Reward!Hello! Here is my fundamental case to be short AUDJPY 1) Strengthening economy in Japan - Is Japan finally out of its 30 year lul? 2) Weakening Economy in Australia - Are interest rates finally starting to effect the economy? 3) Extreme household debt in Australia due to the extreme property hype cycle (People say its because of immigration, I think this is just a narrative... I remember when Hong Kong 'didn't have enough space') Australia hast had its 2008 moment yet, 4) Debt is on govt balance sheet in Japan already... Australia will probably join the govt debt club once they have their property cycle FINITO. Here is my technical case to be short AUDJPY 1) We have rallied to the 61% Fibonacci of the first impulse down. 2) The 'False breakout' at 102ish gives us a good level to know we are wrong. This helps to provide a RIDICULOUS risk reward of 16:1. Thanks Kavi

Gold- In search for a bottomTrading OANDA:XAUUSD has been nothing short of a roller coaster since early October. Initially, it seemed like the rally might never end, but now the drop is unfolding in a similar manner. Although I anticipated a strong decline, I’ll admit that I didn’t expect it to be quite this steep. Gold has now fallen 2,000 pips from its all-time high, and to me, it’s clear that the 2,800 level is likely to hold for a while. However, the outlook for the downside remains uncertain. The price has broken below several key support zones and even briefly tested levels below the 2,600 mark. On a positive note for the bulls, each dip below 2,600 has been met with a quick reversal, which may suggest a false breakout. Whether this holds true is still unclear and requires confirmation—a move back above 2,620 would be a positive signal, potentially setting 2,660 as the next target. On the downside, there is significant support at 2,525, although recent rebounds from 2,600 make it unlikely this level will be tested in the coming days (though with this level of volatility, anything is possible). In summary, I am currently out of the market but will be watching closely for clear signs of a bottom to confirm a new buying opportunity.

FVGs holding BTC up indefinitely right now, deviation targets inFor those who don't know, these imbalanced ranged are the keep to a trend. Many use trend lines to inadvertently ride the effect of FVGs but it's the zone itself that is propelling the trend and the line that is generated as these keep stacking is a byproduct and a secondary technical tool. These zones are where Supply and Demand will be the strongest! Keep your eye out for how these are being respected or disrespected in this rally to the deviation targets while keeping in ming that every pull is an algorithmically delivered precise measurement to get the right target for the slingshot. Be safe on this ride 🧠

Hang Seng heaviness opens door to downside flush Hang Seng futures look heavy. Friday’s bearish engulfing candle has been followed by two consecutive declines, leaving the price teetering just above horizontal support at 20280. With RSI (14) and MACD providing bearish signals on momentum, the inclination is to sell rallies in the near-term. It may also see a potential break of 20280 stick where so many other attempts have failed recently. If we were to see futures break (and preferably close) below 20280, you could sell with a stop above the level for protection. The May 20 high of 19772 would be the initial trade target, especially with the 50-day moving average located just below. If that level were to be broken, it opens the door to a potential deeper flush to 18500 with only minor support at 18945 located in between. Good luck! DS

EDUCATION: Simplified Candlestick Psychology (Part 2)In the world of trading, candlesticks are more than just visual representations of price movements—they're windows into the psychology of the market. Every candlestick tells a story, and if you can learn to read it properly, you can understand the underlying emotions of buyers and sellers. Think of it like reading a book, where every candle is a chapter that contributes to the bigger narrative. In the previous video, we went over the anatomy of a candlestick and this time we dive into the psychology behind the Open, High, Low, and Close (OHLC) values on the chart. This way, you can read the market like you would a good book—predicting what might happen next based on what you've already learned. Anatomy of a Candlestick Before we dig into the psychology, let’s first look at the anatomy of a candlestick. A standard candlestick consists of four key components: the Open, High, Low, and Close (OHLC). These are the foundation for interpreting market sentiment. Open: This is where the price started during that specific time period. Close: This is where the price ended at the close of that period. High: This is the highest point the price reached during that time frame. Low: This is the lowest point the price reached. The body of the candle is the difference between the Open and Close. The wicks (or shadows) represent the range from the Low to the High. The bigger the body, the stronger the move in that direction. The longer the wicks, the more indecision and struggle between buyers and sellers. The Psychology Behind the OHLC Now, let’s break down the psychology behind each component of a candlestick. Every candle is a snapshot of the market’s emotion, so understanding the story behind each piece can help you predict future moves. The Open: The Open represents the first battle of the trading session. It shows where the price starts, and it often sets the tone for the rest of the candle. If the market opens higher than the previous candle’s close, it suggests bullish sentiment, while opening lower indicates a bearish sentiment. But don't just focus on the open; its relationship with the close is just as important. The Close: The Close is where the real battle is won or lost. It’s the final decision of the market—did the buyers or sellers win the battle? A close near the high of the candle suggests strong bullish sentiment, while a close near the low indicates bearish sentiment. A close near the open suggests indecision or equilibrium in the market. Traders often view the close as the most important part of a candlestick because it shows the prevailing market sentiment. The High and Low: These two points tell us about the price extremes during the trading period. A long upper wick suggests that the bulls tried to push the price higher but were met with strong selling pressure. A long lower wick shows that the bears pushed the price lower, but the buyers fought back to reclaim some of the losses. A candle with small wicks indicates that the market didn’t have much fluctuation, and the momentum was steady in one direction. The Body: The body of the candlestick is the most visual part, showing the range between the Open and Close. A large body indicates strong momentum and confidence in one direction. A small body, on the other hand, indicates indecision, where neither side has been able to dominate the market. Putting it All Together Now that we understand the anatomy and psychology behind the OHLC, it’s time to combine the elements and read the story. For example: Bullish Candlestick: If a candlestick has a long body with a close near the high and short wicks, it indicates that buyers were in control, and they finished strong. Bearish Candlestick: Conversely, a candlestick with a long body, close near the low, and short wicks shows that sellers were in control. Indecision: A candle with a small body and long wicks on both sides indicates indecision or a battle between buyers and sellers. The market isn’t sure where it wants to go yet. Candlesticks, when grouped together, create patterns that help us predict future price movements. For instance, a series of bullish candles could indicate strong upward momentum, while a few indecisive candles in a row might suggest a potential reversal or consolidation. Practical Takeaways Watch the Close: The close is your primary indicator of sentiment. A close at or near the high (for bullish candles) or low (for bearish candles) can give you confidence in a trade. Long Wicks Mean Rejection: Wicks can show where the price was rejected, which helps identify areas of support and resistance. Don't Ignore Small Bodies: Small bodies with long wicks are signals of indecision. Don’t be too eager to jump into trades after such candles without further confirmation. Reading candles like a book isn’t just about recognizing patterns—it's about understanding the market's emotions and sentiment. Every candlestick is a snapshot of the battle between buyers and sellers, and by learning to read these battles, you can understand the market's story and predict what might happen next. How do you use candlesticks in your trading? Are there certain patterns or setups that you rely on? Share your thoughts below—I’d love to hear how you read the story in the charts!
