LTC Nearing Decision Time for 15-25% Swing

Following yesterday's 10% swing LTCUSD has formed a larger diamond as predicted. If you followed yesterdays idea you caught a 10% swing and now a setup for larger 15-25% swing looks to be forming.

Inside of the diamond are mixed chart signals including a potential descending triangle forming and a potential inverse head and shoulders.

As price action nears the APEX of the diamond, watch for a breakout of the Diamond and confirmation of either a bottom or a half-staff continuation.

Price targets on chart for breakout in either direction.

Breaking up out of the descending triangle before it forms would be a preliminary bullish indicator. A move to the upper trend line would further support the bullish scenario.

Moving down to the bottom trend line of the potential descending triangle would confirm the pattern and support a bearish scenario.

thepatternsite.com/diamondb.html

Uwaga

The downward resistance trend line the descending triangle has broke, giving more support to a potential bullish scenario.

Uwaga

Breakout...

Uwaga

Two 4k+ LTC buys back to back on GDAX. Expecting a test of the larger diamond tip around 126.91 here. Will review MAs and ICHI clouds for other interim targets.
snag.gy/8EJRvI.jpg

Uwaga

Currently hitting 26ema on the 2 hr.

Have ICHI could resistance on the 30 just short of 125.

Past resistance in the chart. Otherwise, should be all clear to test the larger diamond upper tip.

Uwaga

Bull volume still strong. snag.gy/bYAICP.jpg

Historically speaking, LTC pivots on 5 with 2.50 and 7.50 being battlegrounds. If bulls can't take 122.5, I would expect a pullback below 120.

Uwaga

We're up 9% already but just a reminder, Tight stops are mandatory.

Uwaga

Battling for the critical 2.50 pivot now.

Uwaga

Bears rejected 2.50 . Not liking the potential gravestone on the 30. Really a horrible candle by itself. However, next candle could confirm trend reversal.

Uwaga

Gravestone turned into a potential evening star. I might to take profit on the next pump here and look buy back in below 120.

Uwaga

Back to an doji. Trade still active watching price action to see if bulls will continue up.

Uwaga

Little pump... this candle is fine. Indicates upward continuation.

Uwaga

Bulls pushing toward 2.50 again...

Uwaga

2.50 taken.

Uwaga

15 and 30 minute indicators show pump is getting overheated. 1 hour has a little room to run. Following with a tight trailing stop to take profit here.

15

Transakcja zakończona: osiągnięto poziom stop

Stop hit at 123.25. Nice swing trade from 116.25 there for 6% profit. Watching price action here for further direction.

Uwaga

Bad timing... Look at that pump...

Zlecenie aktywne

Needless to say trad active again. Back in at 124.

Transakcja zakończona: osiągnięto poziom stop

4 dojis in a row on the 15. Clearly undecided. Make your own decision here... Personally closing out for a small loss at 3.5

Uwaga

Watching the 2.50 pivot here for a decision.

Uwaga

Hit right between the 30 min ICHI cloud target and the diamond tip. Bulls gave up the 2.50 pivot.

Zlecenie aktywne

Zlecenie aktywne

Transakcja zakończona: osiągnięto poziom stop

Stopped out at 120.

Zlecenie aktywne

Re-entered at 119.44

Transakcja zakończona: osiągnięto poziom stop

Uwaga

This could lose ground quite fast.

Uwaga

Local target on the downside drop is 8.53 from 117.27 to 108.74 if the bulls do not show up here and support 117. On such a down swing, a test of the inner diamond tip red lines at 112 and 109.27 can be expected.

Another scenario is continue to chop sideways between the 117.5 and 122.5 range until there is decisive breakout in either direction, making shorting here risking. Likewise, going long is also risk because the bottom can easily fallout from under 117 support.

Uwaga

Likely scenarios....

Zlecenie aktywne

Going to make risky play and go long at 117.10 to play a back test of that trend line. Tight stop required because bottom can quickly fall out.

I suspect I 'll get stopped out.

Transakcja zakończona: osiągnięto poziom stop

Stopped out at 7.5

Uwaga

Didn't realize, but visible on the 1 minute, already back tested that trend line once.

Uwaga

LTC has now consolidated into a larger diamond. Price still fell out the bottom and TPs from the original diamond remain unchanged. We could be seeing throwback or pullback, but breaking the tip still remains final confirmation.

Uwaga

Looks like we have a falling wedge after that bounce pointing to 112. Note the price action is based on very low volume, result of asks being pulled on low volume buys -> snag.gy/t7mGpN.jpg

Uwaga

LTC should testing that tip around 115.54. If it breaks 112 inbound...

Uwaga

Uwaga

LTC Tip broke, Bears chewing away at buy wall.

In the mean time, BTC has also fell out the bottom of its larger diamond and should be heading down to test its tip

Uwaga

LTC TP here should be over 120. But we have resistance tips at 188.83 and at 191.71. Expect a pullback.

Uwaga

Perfect hit. Not sure how much pullback we will see, Bulls are buying aggressively. Rather lock in 2.25% profit instead of taking the risk. Would not be surprised to see this continue up though.

Uwaga

Bulls broke through first resistance after 5 minutes of trying. Should hit 1 hour cloud resistance, then larger diamond resistance over the next dollar.

Putting in a lower limit order to catch a dump. Will buy back if we break trough the resistance.

Uwaga

Bulls put up a very large buy wall (8K) on gdax starting 188.83. Don't think they plan on giving it up.

BTC also maybe putting in a rounded top short of 7k after breaking out if its bull flag.

Uwaga

Looks LTC bulls and bears will battle over the 118.83 - 119.73 range here.

Uwaga

GDAX buy wall being pulled. Bulls look prepared to give it up as BTC continues its pullback.

Uwaga

Bears dumping into the buy wall. Keeps getting lowered and put back. Appears bulls will support it to an extent and imagine they will let it go if sell volume gets to high. Contemplating buying back in here with a tight stop.

Zlecenie aktywne

Long 118.86, if nothing else maybe we chop sideways for a few $1 scalp.s

Uwaga

GDAX buy is indicative of a Whale using a bot to cost average in buys.

Potential Scalp: BTC and LTC has formed Descending Broadening wedge. Trade rule is to buy the 3rd touch and target Point (A) where the descent began with and 83% success rate. thepatternsite.com/dbw.html.

It would appear the 115.5-116.5 area might where this touch might occur.

Going to long a small position here because looking at the charts we may have had 3 touches going by candle bodies as opposed to wicks.

Target hit. 1% gain but it adds up.

Uwaga

LTC has fell out of a local rising wedge, and is heading for the neckline of a local head and shoulders. TP on the HnS is 113.7 but previous support at 115 should hold. It is also possible that the neckline holds. Possible bounce areas highlighted.

Uwaga

Good timing. Hitting that wedge line. Would like to see it fall out here to fell safer about going long though....

Zlecenie aktywne

Hitting the 15 ema 26 at 191.51 right now which is a good bounce point. Ideally, a pullback to the black trend line. But would rather take the $2 increase instead of risking it. However, we can pull back further.

Uwaga

Sill over cooked on the 30 and 1 hour TFs. Might play some more chop to pick some extra coin but that risks selling and having to buy back higher. Watching price action.

Zlecenie zamknięto ręcznie

Took a little under 1% profit. Hourly candle doesn't look good.

If LTC breaks this trend line it will form an ascending broadening wedge.

Uwaga

LTC and BTC TP1 hit.

LTC has broke the diamond TP 126.91. On upward continuation, it should find resistance at 130.02 as it moves toward the 133.23 inverse head and shoulders target and on toward the major diamond target at 144.55

Uwaga

Correction: Scaling between 127 and 129.5

Uwaga

Larger falling wedge has formed, along with a ascending broadening wedge which indicates should eventually move back to at least 130.5. Unless the bulls or bears get aggressive here, this would be the expected price action.

Uwaga

Bulls got aggressive. Normally ABW gets three touches.

Uwaga

Larger Ascending Broadening wedge forming. If it pulls back it should touch the lower trend line a 3rd time and should move back to and break the point where it started at 131.35, and should move on to the inverse head and shoulders target of 133.2. Bulls however are being aggressive and bears have yet to unload. This is crypto though and anything can happen.

Uwaga

Bulls kept going. Be on the look out for the following potential scenario: Inverse head and shoulders target hits, price pulls back and forms a diamond.
