Current Observations:
1. Price: $1.517, up by 10.33%. This is a significant price gain over the last 24 hours.
2. Moving Averages (MA):
MA60 is around 1.513, suggesting the price is slightly above a key support level.
Shorter moving averages like MA5 and MA10 show the possibility of a bullish crossover.
3. MACD: The MACD (0.002) shows a positive crossover (the MACD line crossing above the signal line), indicating a bullish trend forming.
4. Volume: The volume bars show an increase during the recent upward price movements, supporting the bullish signal.
Strategy for Long Entry (Plan A):
1. Entry Point: Look for a retracement near the MA60 level (around $1.513) or the MA10 if you want to enter a long position. This would be an optimal point if price stabilizes or forms a reversal candlestick pattern.
2. Take Profit (TP): Given that the 24h high is $1.730, aim for an exit around this level or slightly below ($1.70).
3. Stop Loss (SL): Set your stop loss below $1.48 to minimize losses if the trade moves against you.
4. Trade Duration: Since the MACD indicates a potential uptrend, this could be a short-to-medium-term trade lasting a few hours to a day.
Short Entry Strategy (Plan B):
1. Entry Point: If the price fails to break the recent high (around $1.52) or shows strong resistance near $1.60, consider entering a short position.
2. Take Profit (TP): Target the lower end of support around $1.40 or even the 24h low of $1.296.
3. Stop Loss (SL): Set a stop loss above $1.54 to protect against a possible breakout upward.
4. Trade Duration: Short-term, likely lasting hours if thereâs a quick pullback.
Alternative Plans:
Plan C (Reversal Scenario):
If signals turn against you during the long trade, and the price drops significantly below the MA60, wait for a bottoming pattern (like a double bottom) near $1.40 before re-entering.
Plan D (Continuation of Bullish Trend):
If the price breaks above the resistance ($1.52) with volume confirmation, and the MACD strengthens, add to your long position with a higher take-profit target near $1.75. Adjust stop loss accordingly to protect profits.
Conclusion:
Long Entry: Around $1.513 (support level) with a target near $1.70.
Short Entry: Around $1.52-$1.60 (resistance level) with a target near $1.40 or lower.
Stop Loss: For long trades, $1.48, and for short trades, $1.54.
If any indicator weakens, like volume drop or a bearish MACD crossover, adjust your strategy accordingly and consider scaling out of positions.
