Received quite a few questions on how to use these levels, so here are some basic rules
1. 85% of the days, the markets will remain within these levels 2. When there is a breakout/breakdown of any one side, expect a fast large move that day
3. Bullish above the Balance, bearish below it 4. If we are bearish, one can sell CALLs above the upper level and vice versa 5. If bearish, look for sells from your other indicators to buy options and vice versa 6. Expect strong resistance/support at the upper/lower levels
7. If one observes the levels over days, if the band is going up markets are bullish. Then use the Balance as support or lower levels as strong support ( and opposite if bands are going down over days)
The levels itself are not buy or sell signals, but gives you the context for the day . This broad context can be used to set strategies for the day

When I started learning technical analysis, took me six months before I could draw trendlines correctly so that I could trust and trade on them.
RSI ?Divergences ? another six months😃
The way I use MFI ? 2 years 😃
Any TA tool like metastock, amibroker or tradingview has hundreds of indicators. Try mastering one at a time, you will master max 2-4 in the next few years
Let's say there is a very good swordsman. He has a very good sharp sword, perfectly balanced.
He gives you that sword, will you be able to fight as good as the swordsman ?
Technical analysis says two things : 1. Momentum precedes price 2. Volumes precedes price
So, if an indicator includes momentum and volume analysis, it will be a leading indicator to some extent. This is the crux why I am so much confident on MFI
The indicator can be used for swing as well as day-trading. I use a period of 10 as I have seen that being our responsive to our markets here
I had this theory that if #Bitcoin went below $30k , this time it probably won't go up again. Let's see
1. I had earlier posted a distribution analysis for bitcoin 2. Traders have been primed by the price action of the past few months where it goes below $30k on weekends and then bounces back. This dip should see heavy accumulation from retail and thus a perfect distribution point
If this is not distribution, I don't know what is. If I were trading this, would have shorted below $29k with a stop at $31k and then progressively trailed stops
