When the universe aligns or, many edges speak in favor of a trading entry, it´s time to take action. Unfortunately, this is easier said than done. As contrarians, these times are often, or should we say best, when others are in disagreement. It is not uncommon that one might have tried once or twice before to get a stab at the market so it takes courage to increase the size and be aggressive at a time when emotions guide otherwise. This was no different on the last significant turning point in the crypto space. We as well had given entries a chance prior to finally catching it right. Luckily our quad strategy prevents from experiencing large losses, but it is still difficult for the amateur and professional alike to do the only right thing here: Portfolio reload, step up to the plate.
Nevertheless, discipline warranted on the 25th of this month to aggressively participate in the market. Stars had aligned or better said charts had.
"Time To Act"
Weekly Chart BTC/USDT For Nov. 28, 2019 Bitcoin in TetherUS
On the weekly chart, edges show clearly an oversold market penetrating a low-risk entry zone. As such we not only took a position in bitcoin itself but also in EOS, VET, XMR, NEBL, VIB, IOTA, XZC and NAS.
“Courage Pays”: Portfolio Reload-Step Up To The Plate
BTC/USDT Daily Chart For Nov. 28, 2019
With a timely entry near the lows at US$6,638.10, we were able to exit half of our position at substantial profits at US$7,293.50. Beta positions like NEBL and VIB of our portfolio reloads had runner profits locked in of 55.5% and 44.3%.
“Reentry Zone”
BTC/USDT, 240-minute Chart For Oct. 28, 2019
This four-hour chart shows clearly that the US$7,100 zone and below would allow for reentries. Should prices revisit this support zone it would again allow for the market participant to risk capital at a low risk entry zone.
“Inverse Head And Shoulders”
BTC/USDT 60-+Minute Chart For Nov. 28, 2019
One can especially well identify on the lower 60-minute time frame how the reversal came about with an inverse head and shoulder formation. The US$6,900 supply and demand zone is clearly visible in case we retrace with volatility.
Reentries aren’t a guarantee though. At the time of writing this chart-book bitcoin has already advanced from its lows US$6,515 to as high as US$7,850, a 20.5% price increase.
Portfolio reload-step up to the plate
It is especially important to not be timid in volatile markets like the crypto market. This because widely drawn out double bottoms aren’t the typical reversal configuration. Stepping up to the plate is necessary when technical analysis edges are stacked. The trader who is used to slower markets often waits in vain for a second chance opportunity while prices move already quickly away from the market player for a low risk entry participation.
