I said I would share my trades every week here, and I haven't kept my word on that yet, because I have just been breaking even lately trying to find the right opportunity. I like to trade the big swings. I am not interested in the little waves, because the risk reward ratio sucks for those trades unless you're a day trader with a lot of leverage and a whole lot of time to manage your trades. I don't have a whole lot of leverage, just $900 to trade with, so I try to be cautious with it and wait for the really good opportunities to enter, where I know I have the potential to make at least a hundred dollars. Right now I think there is a great opportunity with XLM for a potential 50-70% return.
XLM has been making higher lows and lower highs all year, and has formed a giant bull pennant pattern. We are approaching the apex of the triangle now, and I see potential for a major breakout to the upside sometime within the next 2-3 months. I am going to try to trade all the major waves over the next few months and build up as much leverage as I can to go long at the end of the year. Based on my own chart analysis, I think the crypto market should find support by the end of the year, and we should see a major trend reversal in the market as a whole.
These are the buys I have setup. I chose my prices based on the strong trend line that XLM has held all year so far, and a careful study of the daily RSI. The daily RSI is approaching the oversold territory. I am confident that there will be a hard bounce soon. I am also factoring in my analysis of Bitcoin into this trade. The daily RSI on Bitcoin is also nearing oversold conditions, and I think if the price pushes down to $5,700 again that there will be a hard bounce, just like we saw the last time the price dipped that low. The whole market still follows Bitcoin, but I have noticed that XLM sees the strongest gains every time there is a recovery rally. That's what I am predicting will happen here. And I am willing to bet all of my trading money on it.
If I wake up to find these trades have filled, I will immediately setup a stop loss, and aim to sell between 28-30 cents. I think the risk reward ratio on this trade is great, and I feel confident I won't get trapped even if something goes wrong here. I will put up another post next week to let everyone know how it worked out for me. Thanks for listening! I hope this was helpful.
