To trade or to HOLD?
If you're going to trade, I have made a lot of strategies already, available at
(Look at the bottom. Open mobile if it doesn't open)
If you're looking to hold, We will discuss 1. When to enter for holding. 2. When to enter.t.me/EmperorbtcTA/2…
After FA as mentioned in the above, We begin to find the entry.
I USE ONLY CHARTS to find the entry.
Jack D. Schwager has mentioned many times how he only uses TA to find entry for his investments.
We discussed in detail in 'Introduction to TA' how chart is all you need.
Strategy for HODL entry.
1. 13,21,50,180 EMA Cross. 2. Volume around the Cross. 3. EMA squeeze before the Cross. 4. Enter on Breakout candle crossing the high of previous candle. 5. Volume must increase after EMA Cross breakout. 6. Better if Breakout candle is an engulfing.
I am sharing the settings for the EMA here.
Time Frame- Daily Chart.
The Cross.
We are looking for a bullish cross of the
13,21,50 and the 180 EMA. These are my personal settings and can be tweaked by anyone. But this is what I use.
The 13 (RED) has to be above 21(Green), and so forth with 50 (Blue) and 180 (Black)
*Candles hidden for clarity.
VOLUME.
This doesn't always occur because very few people use this technique, but while the whales accumulate, you can see a little increase in volume.
If a clear volume change occurs, it means the break-out has a higher probability.
Illustrated below.
The Squeeze.
It means the MAs coming closer, illustrating an accumulation. This can suggest a change in trend in either direction.
If the volume is increasing during squeeze, it is most likes bullish.
The Volume also must carry through after the break-out.
The Entry.
This is where true edge comes in play.
The entry edge can only be gained with experience, failure and a lot of trying.
Here are two entry options below.
The risky entry is when the candle next to the engulfing cross the engulfing candle's high.
Here is an example of how it works.
PLEASE note. 1. Use volume for entry. 2. Use PA for confirmation. 3. This is not fool proof but gets better with experience.
The exit has been done as one of the EMAs turns bearish.
Conclusion. 1. Wait for EMA squeeze. 2. Look for volume on Accumulation. 3. Find Cup and handle or rounding bottoms. 4. Use PA for Confirmation. 5. Exit on bearish cross-over.
This is my strategy of Buying Alts for the short terms.
It's simple and it works. I am in MANY alt positions right now with this tool.
This is for HODL, I will share Alt swing trading tutorial soon.
A request-
PLEASE try it on as many charts as possible and share below if you find the above set-up in play on any coin.
Kindly share it if you liked the thread, it might help someone.
Some Changes I would make to my trading if I started again.
1. A few winning trades is a myth. Don't Listen to stupid influencers who keep telling you that you just need a few winning trades. You can't 2x your portfolio by risking it all in one trade and then assume you'll keep doing the same forever.
You need to risk small or maybe higher if you're very sure about the trade with higher conviction.
Higher risk has always blown portfolios. Anyone telling you otherwise is selling a course for a living.
Small risks, many trades. If you're really sure or early or have insider info about a trade, then can skew the risk higher.
2. For swing trading, nothing is more important than market structure and people make losses because they don't want to believe the market structure or keep holding onto a losing trade, even when they can see a different market structure.
Market Structure is there for a reason, use it, study it and believe in it.
3. You can't me use the same mindset, data and zones for different types of trading.
Each type of trading, Scalping, swing or investment is to be done in different time scales and you need a different zone and need to ignore a few zones for different time length of trading.

BNB
Since our last update, we flipped the 0.0093 resistance level, now forming a new range
Expecting a small range against BTC here before continuation higher.
Suggestion - Hold on to bottom entries if you bought with me around $500.
SOL
Tricky situation, if we hold range high we just flipped, I expect to reach $170 soon
Bidding region would be under $135 sweep based on BTC chart.
1. Visible Range OI Delta Profile on @coinalyzetool
Shows where traders are entering and exiting. Use this like VPVR.
Use this indicator on LTF to identify trading levels in a trending market.
In range, use this to scalp on either side as target when price deviates.
2. Aggregate OI:
Having net open interest across all trading pairs is very useful.
Sometimes, one exchange will market enter large long positions while there is no action or selling action on other exchange. This filters out misinterpretation of that data to a large extent.
