Morning Ideas May 25, 2022Good morning traders,
Apologies for yesterday's morning ideas coming out without audio.
What I was expecting yesterday was more of a non-trendy day. The difficulty with this market is that it's difficult to look for a back and forth market setup when we whip around intraday. For example, yesterday at 1130 it looked like it was a trend down day, just to turn around and trend higher the rest of the day.
What we are left with today is a market continuing to build out volume in this lower distribution that I discuss in the video. I think you have to continue to give the edge to the sellers here, as the market continues to have trouble holding onto higher prices.
How To Analyze Any Chart From Scratch - Episode 2Hello TradingView Family / Fellow Traders. This is Richard, as known as theSignalyst.
Today we are going to go over a practical example on XRP, but you can apply the same logic / strategy on any instrument.
Feel free to ask questions or request any instrument for the next episode.
Always follow your trading plan regarding entry, risk management, and trade management.
Good luck!
All Strategies Are Good; If Managed Properly!

Why I'm Short Bitcoin MBT FuturesAfter that steep selloff we had in Bitcoin down to around 25k I anchored a VWAP to that day to see if we could hold above it to gauge the strength of the market coming off that low. I also kept up a simple 10 day moving average to gauge the trend of the market. The entire rally off the low we held below the 10 day moving average and as of today we failed to hold above the Anchored VWAP. Both of those are signals of weakness to me and adding to that my Bollinger Bands are also telling me that the market still favors the short side. This area for me is pretty good risk reward as I will stay with the shorts until a daily close above the 10 day moving average or a violation of the recent high off the lows around 31,000. As I recorded today we are right around 29,100 and I am slowly getting in to the short side looking for a possibility of the 25,000 low to be tested and possibly even lower prices following that. I mentioned in the video I am using Micro Bitcoin Futures to execute my shorts. I am also executing my trades on TradeStation which you can connect to TradingView to trade spot, futures and crypto.

The BEST position of 2022? The answer may surprise you...What has been the best investment/position of 2022? The best trade was of course to be "short stocks" or "short crypto" but where could we have put capital to have achieved the best return. Believe it or not, despite all the FUD narratives about inflation and the US Dollar's weakness, one of the best performing assets of 2022 was in fact... US Dollars. That's right, "cash is a position" and relative to other world currencies the US Dollar has been RISING. Your cash buys more stock, more crypto, more foreign currency.
Why I'm Bullish The E-mini Nasdaq 100 FuturesIn this video I go over several reasons why yesterday's low signaled to me that it is a good low to now look for longs. I use a measuring tool for rotations, Bollinger Bands (20 Period 3 Standard Deviation), 10 day Moving Average, and the Year To Date Auto Anchored VWAP.

Decentraland (MANA) and the Metaverse Rental MarketThe metaverse (Decentraland especially) has a lot of hype behind it but the utility aspects of it is still underbuilt in its current form. Will it eventually get there? A look at a few things being worked on in the background during this bear market.
How I Day Trade The E-mini NasdaqSimplicity is King when it comes to day trading futures. One of the keys for me when I am day trading futures is to find one side of the market to trade on and stick with it throughout the day. I think too many people get caught up trading both sides of the market and get themselves over trading. In today's video I show you a simple strategy using a 3 minute opening range along with an Anchored VWAP to help you determine if the day is going to be choppy, or a trend day. This strategy is something I use to determine direction for the day and can easily be used as an addition to your strategy to give you confirmation of trend.

Strategy, Support, Resistance - 4/17/2022 - Crypto, StocksThis week we look at stocks, cryptocurrencies, commodities, and stocks making moves. The stock market looks to be inside a bear trend coming off the late March rally. I am looking for a spike up on VIX to mark the next stock market swing bottom. Cryptocurrencies have almost all given up their recent March rallies with Ethereum holding its ground for now. Oil is on its way back up to 112. Gold and silver are showing signs of trying to retest the recent failed breakout high but may just be marking a new consolidation. Tech stocks are giving up the resurgence and value stocks continue to be winners.
LET'S GET REAL: Stop Strategy Jumping!Hey Traders,
This one is going to be a little bit different, a little bit deeper and a little bit harder to listen to rather than usual technical analysis. I recommend you sit down and listen to this. Have a think whether it relates to you or whether you found yourself in this position, or even if you've gone through this position and share your experience on how you go through it. A lot of traders struggle with their strategy, jumping from aspects of trading and that's why so many educators out there make a lot of money off of them. It is time to stop.
In this video I outlay a challenge that I put to all the traders who may find themselves in this position to sit down and to thoroughly test their current or previous strategies and understand them on a deeper level. No more jumping around, no more looking outwards. Let's start looking inwards. Let's see the data that we have handed to us and what we can do to improve that data.
If you enjoyed this video, please leave a comment. Leave a like, if we do get enough likes and comments, I will make a Part 2 on how to go about this with a more depth avenue while using different resources.
As always, have a fantastic training week.
How I Trade A 2-Way Market In The E-mini S&P 500 FuturesI see a lot of talk on whether the S&P is in a bull or bear market and IMHO, neither the bulls or the bears have control right now. I think this is a 2-way tape frustrating a lot of bulls and bears. In this video I share my simple process for assessing how we are in a 2-way market, not a bull or bear market and how I am using Anchored VWAP's to keep me out of trading the middle and keep me trading the edges. As of right now I am looking at 4375 to get tested in the coming day(s) where I will look to establish a long position. If that holds I will look for a retest of 4444.50 and potentially a rally up to 4526. A daily close below 4375 I would be out of my longs and then I think that the bears have a chance to take control of the market.

XAUUSD Overall Bullish
Good Afternoon traders we are looking for the massive pennant formation to continue to the upside.
Will be looking to add additional positions around g 1940-1942, looking for gold to move into the 60's and potentially the 80's depending on how we see it react once reaching 1960.
As always trade proper RR live to trade another day. Let's make some money guys.
Thank you for watching.

How I Use Anchored VWAP's To Trade Nasdaq FuturesRight now the Nasdaq is at a very important area on my charts. We just came off another failed attempt of regaining the 200 Day Moving Average and now we are back to the VWAP from the opening day of the year and the VWAP from the low of the year. Both VWAP's are trading right around 14,550. I think that VWAP's from the open of the year and the low of the year are one of the best tools to test the trend of a market. Since we just failed at the 200 day MA, but we are still a good distance from the lows of the year, these VWAP's are going to be my key pivots for the next move in Nasdaq. I also use my Indicator, Beacon (which is free and open source on TradingView) along with Bollinger Bands to show you in this quick video how I will be trading E-mini Nasdaq & Micro E-mini Nasdaq Futures and Options in the coming days.

How To Become A Profitable Trader: Part 1Hey guys! Today, I'm launching a video series about how to actually make money in the markets. This is the first video.
At this point, it's a cliche, but I'll say it anyway: The first step to making money is not losing money.
So many people lose money by committing unenforced errors. This video is simply about helping people see the obvious mistakes they are making, from the perspective of a professional trader who's been at this for 6+ years.
One note: when talking about leverage, obviously with FX you may want to use some leverage because the %ATR is so low. But keep it under 10x.
In the following videos, I will touch on:
- How to understand trading any market on any timeframe
- The basics of how to make a trade decision
- Simple strategies I know work, and have seen work over a long period of time
Hopefully you find this useful. LMK in a comment!

HOW TO: Find the money making stocks, cryptos and FX pairsToday I'm going to be looking to something a little bit different than our normal analytics!
We're going to dive into the tradingview screener! The Forex Screener specifically, but everything I do talk about does also apply to the crypto Screener and the stock Screener. What I want to explain is how I use it to find pairs, stocks and cryptos which are setting up the way I want them to, in order for me to day trade. I show how I use a range of different Bollinger bands to moving averages to overall technical aspects, like growth statistics or reaching all time highs.
The Forex Screener and the tradingview tools that they offer is top of the range stuff. I recommend trying to figure out how to use them and how to utilize them to benefit you in your trading.
Have a listen. Have a look yourself through the Tradingview screener and the different technical aspects in which you can change. I guarantee it'll streamline your process in finding the right pairs that you're going to choose when it comes down to day trading.
I hope you enjoyed it. If you did, please leave a comment and a like. As always, have a very successful week of trading guys. Thank you.
HODL Gamestop if you want to stay poor!How is that for a title? Traders are going to win this play and all the people who are going to hold for the long term are going to get slapped worse than a host at the golden globes. What an opportunity to get out! If I was in GME around this range, I would be selling to recover whatever I could and move on to something else. This is basically a miracle on low volume. Big players may be entering for a last short squeeze as time runs out but don't be the guy who holds for the long term.
Gamestop I guess is looking to do a stock split to make the price more attractive so I am going to have to lower my $10-$20 target because now it's going to hit that too easy in the long run. So what are we talking? Maybe a $5-$10 new range after new shares are issued. This thing is going to turn into a penny stock so they need to be careful on these splits. And don't think GameStop isn't looking to issue new shares out of thin air and dump them on the market. It is no different than the FED issuing new credit to the US out of thin air. Everyone buying that stock is giving a lifeline to Gamestop to live off and stay alive. This isn't just a Zombie Company, it's high on crack and hitting up all its friends for some dollar bills telling them "I'll pay you back man!" We know how that works out.
All the HODL'ers that are throwing their life savings at this will be in the basement like, " But MOM! You said I can stay out until the street lights come on! " Your lady friend isn't going to be too happy with your cubic zirconia when you're down on one knee because you bought GameStop for the long term. Be the trader on this one and let your buddies who won't listen see their wealth evaporate.

Why is Decentraland the Metaverse of Choice for Businesses?The metaverse market as a whole has been down for the last 3 months as we plod through this crypto "winter" - though it's worth noting that Decentraland is slowly closing the gap to Sandbox after its surge last year. But one trend in particular here sticks out -- the emergence of Decentral Games ($DG) coin, which is a project that focuses on casino-style gambling games that are playable directly on the metaverse.
In a way it's not surprising -- if you've been on Decentraland lately you might have noticed something: the majority of traffic on the platform right now is clustered near two types of locations -- play-to-earn games (Wunderland, etc.) and casinos run by organizations like Decentral Games. DG is a coin that went all-in on Decentraland's future -- it named itself after the platform it built itself on, even. We've heard many well-known companies jumping into the metaverse but Decentraland seems to be metaverse of choice above all others. Why?
After looking into the details of the more popular metaverse projects (Decentraland, The Sandbox, Cryptovoxels, Somnium Space...even platforms like Roblox or Meta) the one thing that makes MANA stand out is the fact that it's the most decentralized platform out of all of its competitors, and its governed by its own DAO in a transparent way.
governance.decentraland.org
While there may be many who might oppose DG on principle (taking an anti-gambling stance), DG coin is, too, run by a DAO as well.
decentral.games
We may not see the influx of money going into MANA until the next fiscal year, but the fact that the big companies (including JP Morgan who recently opened its "Onyx Lounge" in Decentraland recently) are going there is easily noticeable -- why? Companies that are planning on operating businesses inside the metaverse seek a platform that maintains its neutrality and largely stays out of its way. The other projects are all run by companies or teams with centralized control in the background - for businesses that have done its due-diligence, a truly decentralized platform is the only option that makes any sort of sense.
Following the lead of DG, a lot of companies are hoping to create commerce layers on top of Decentraland to drive more traffic to its worlds, long-term. In a way, these trends is a validation of the decentralized model, since it encourages other projects to follow the success of the DAO model as a whole. Projects that are currently centralized may find itself being left behind long-term, as the partnerships and resources required to make Web3 models work migrate towards better (neutral) waters as a whole.
Why VXX exploded and what it means for volatility (VIX)One of the big market events today is the explosion in price of AMEX:VXX which according to the issuer Barclays has nothing to do with Ukraine or market events. I think it is tangentially related in some way to the market conditions but what does this actually mean for the near future of volatility? I look at TVC:VIX as a measure of the "fear index" of the S&P500. The VIX can be very useful in timing market tops and bottoms as it represents maximums of emotion. The VIX is telling us something about the current lows of the market and how the recent correction might soon be over.
