I might have had a little bit too much fun last night. I went to a bluegrass concert that started at 9:00 and I must have had too much to drink because I still feel like shit at 6:15 pm the next day.
The struggle is real!
Not having anything to drink tonight and I am looking forward to feeling like a champ again tomorrow.
The markets have sure been interesting. Starting to track the futures curve is the only reason that I didn’t short BTC after yesterday’s close and I am sure glad that I didn’t! As long as we continue to hold support I gain confidence that $4,200 resistance will break and then we will be in for a strong 1 month + dead cat bounce.
The S&P 500 looks like it is just coming to the end of that type of bounce. The TD Sequential is on a red 9, we have multiple reversal candles and there is a cluster of resistance from $2,600 - $2,650.
USD:TRY continues to head fake > $5.5 and continues to close below the TDST level at that price. The M MA is diverging in a bullish manner and support continues to move up. This is my single favorite trade for 2019 and if we can close a daily candle > $5.5 then I think we should really start to pick up momentum.
Open Positions
Long: USDTRY
Price: $5.55804
Projected Risk: 5.66%
Leverage: 100X
Exposure: 0.16 lots ($16,000)
Margin: 0.048 BTC
Unrealized PnL: -0.087 BTC
Notes: Support holding above the phase 3 trendline is going to be very important for me to maintain a healthy bankroll for this challenge.
Long: USDZAR
*1/3/19 SCALE OUT: P < S MA = 5%. However minimum available to scale out was 8%
*1/6/19 SCALE OUT: P < S MA (5%) + Bearish M MA (30%) + Bearish Cross with S & M MA’s (15%) + P < flat L MA (25% - 50%)
*1/7/19 SET STOP LOSS: Stop loss set at $13.489 for remainder of position.
*1/9/19 ADJUSTED STOP LOSS: Moved stop to $13.64 due to expected support from 200 MA.
*1/11/19 DEATH CROSS signals final scale out. However on TD red 9 at horizontal and trend support. Leaving stop at $13.64 due to bullish 200 MA and support cluster. Negligible difference in risk, huge difference in potential gain.
Price: $14.48
Projected risk: Market stop set at $13.49
Leverage: 100X
Exposure: 0.06 lots ($6,000)
Margin: 0.0157 BTC
Unrealized PnL: -0.075 BTC
Realized PnL: -0.086 BTC
Short: SPX500
*1/4/19 ADD TO POSITION: S MA making bearish cross with M MA = 15% added
*1/6/19 SCALE OUT: P > S MA (5%) + bullish M MA (30%) + Bullish cross with S & M MA’s (15%) = 50%
*1/11/19 GOLDEN CROSS does not necessarily signal scale out due to angle of L MA. Stop loss set at $2,656.
Price: $2,472.62
Projected Risk (horizontal resistance at $2,650): 7.44%
Leverage: 100X
Exposure: 0.09 lots ($22,276)
Margin: 0.0586 BTC
Unrealized PnL: -0.289 BTC
Realized PnL: -0.129 BTC
Notes: Major horizontal resistance from $2,600 - $2,650. Stop set at $2,656. Really want to see this week close < the 9 MA.
LONG XRPH19
*1/11/19 SCALE IN: P < Bullish L MA represents oversold asset in bull market.
Enter: 0.00009135
Stop: 0.00008888
Risk: 2.7%
Exposure: 20,267 XRP (1.8518 BTC)
Leverage: 15X
Unrealized PnL: +0.0111 BTC
Realized PnL: -0.0046 BTC
Notes: Entry was not based purely on Consensio. Bitcoin futures curve in backwardation with widening spread is main reason I was looking to add to my long exposure. Also looking at confluence of support from trend and horizontal. Guidelines would have me waiting for close above S MA to start scaling in, but I really liked the risk:reward provided at today’s close.
Open Orders
*1/10/19 AMENDED stop market to short XAUUSD. Moved entry up to $1,284 due to that being below horizontal support & parabola and it provided better risk:reward. Consenio signaled entry today, but I’d prefer to wait for further confirmation.
Watchtower
USDHUF: 18 year symmetrical triangle.
USDJPY: (leaning bearish) Consensio is bearish on Monthly chart indicating that the triangle has a greater chance of breaking down. Tightest monthly BB has been since 1976 when the price proceeded to move 41% in ~21 months. Think that retesting $80 is most likely.
XRPUSD: In a Bollinger Band super squeeze on the weekly with lower highers and highers lows suggesting upcoming parabolic move either way...a/k/a Jesus Fish Pattern. Symmetrical triangle on daily provides first target of $1.1
USDCAD: Approaching bullish 200 MA while the M MA and L MA posture for death cross. Weekly A&E bottom with $1.63 target. Massive volume over last 3 years. Currently fitting into channel. Tightest weekly BB squeeze since 2000.
WTIUSD: Pullback back and into golden cross
BTCUSD: Gap in the visible range volume profile looks like it is begging to get filled. If we close above $4,300 then a return to $5,400 - $6,000 would be my highest probability outcome. Will be strongly considering setting a stop order to add to my long above the daily Parabolic SAR. Backwardation appears to be getting slightly more exaggerated, currently 3.03%.
ETHUSD: First weekly buy signal since April 2018. Daily has potential incoming death cross which could occur right around the Constantinople Fork.
LTCUSD: Waiting for close > daily saved me. Treating inside the cloud as a no trade zone can work very well.
XRPBTC: Incoming death cross following L MA roll over could be setting up ideal entry. However ascending triangle is still in tact and want to wait to enter until we get a close above / below.
XAUUSD: A few daily candles have closed above the trend line from 2016 but when zooming out to the weekly chart it becomes clear that the TL is continuing to hold as resistance, therefore it is still in tact. Daily looks like it is ready to break down at any moment and that is why I will be waiting with stop entry. Consensio is also starting to signal short entries with P < S & M MA while those are making a bearish cross.
EURUSD: (leaning bullish) L MA and LL MA squeezing with price between on weekly and the LL MA appears to be making bullish reversal. Seeing a potential A&E bottom. Bollinger Band in tightest squeeze since 2014 and a 24% move followed that one.
USDRUB: Symmetrical triangle forming above bullish 200 MA that is approaching the price. Also had a recent GGC on the weekly.
