What's good, guys? Welcome back to another video. We're going to get into the intraday setup for Bitcoin today. One thing's for sure, it's looking a little bit more straightforward compared to yesterday, where, you know, we had a reason to believe that it was going to find support somewhere and go up. But at the same time, the intraday, you know, kind of signals were pointing towards the downside yesterday. So ultimately, we ended up on a loss yesterday, which means that that puts— well, that puts us down to 154 out of the last 192 trades that I've called on Bitcoin. Now, I personally lost the trade on Bitcoin yesterday as well, so like Like overall, we still tend to be right a little bit more often than we're wrong. So if you're new to the channel, you're in the right place. But otherwise, before we get into it, guys, there is 3 days left before Blueprint closes. The guys that have already joined Blueprint in the last week or so have already started getting results in a week. And these guys range from absolute beginners to people that have already been trading for a while, but they just, you know, couldn't figure it out or how to get consistent. One thing's for sure, if you've been doing this for a while and you haven't, you know, seen the results that you have wanted to see from trading yet, give Blueprint a try, right? There is a reason why I have so much conviction on this. It genuinely works. Worst, best case scenario, you join and you get funded within the next couple of months and you're off to achieve everything that you set out to achieve with trading. You've already seen it from all of the success stories that I've been sharing for the past couple of weeks. Now, the worst case scenario, you don't like it, you don't, you know, you're not seeing results from it or whatever, you ask for a refund, right? Simple as that. So yeah, check it out. We have 3 days left, but otherwise let's get into the intraday setup on Bitcoin today. I'm also going to talk about a couple of forex setups because I think they are, there are some promising ones today. But just kicking these off. Yesterday, Bitcoin managed to bounce from this fair value gap right here, which is probably the reason why our trade ended up getting stopped out. It is what it is though. The intraday, like the intraday signal was still pointing towards the downside yesterday. So, you know, we trade the system regardless. Like there are going to be losses. It's just, you know, it's natural that it will have losses. But so far today is looking a lot more clean. Well, a lot more clear. Like it's so far not looking super clean, but let me explain, right? Either way, the daily bias is towards the upside. So we're going to be looking for longs today. Now, once you go into the 1-hourly chart, you start seeing a much better picture in a sense that once you filled in that daily fair value gap yesterday, you managed to get a CIC towards the upside. And then today again, you got another CSD a couple of hours ago, which means that order flow right now is already bullish and it's looking very clean towards the upside. So right now, as long as price does not break below this order block right here, we would be looking for a long, like just right out of here. Taking a look at the 5-minute chart, like that CSD would probably come above, you know, $75,000, assuming that, you know, you don't continue just dumping. Setup for today is going to be super straightforward actually, as long as you do not break break below this order block, and when I say break, I mean you do not get a 1-hourly candle close below $74,600, then you're just going to be looking for a trade towards the upside. Keep in mind though that today is a non-news day, and when I say non-news day, I mean there is no red for the USD news. Like today you have GBP news, but like that's not going to be super relevant for Bitcoin. So the reason why I say that is because on a non-news day, ideally you want to be going half risk on your trade setups instead of full risk because, well, you're just dealing with slightly lower probability conditions. And obviously the intraday target for you know, today is going to be at $76K. That's where we ended up going back on Tuesday. Just keep in mind that the weekly bias so far is also pointing towards the bullish direction, which means that, you know, so far we're still going to be able to take advantage of a weekly expansion. Now the other thing that is kind of like noteworthy is the fact that you've already had a liquidity sweep using this low. So this low is already a strong low, assuming that you don't kind of like start breaking below that low, and this long idea is going to be intact. But right now it's only, you you know, what, 3:30 AM. And as long as you get that CUSD, you're free to enter it as long as you're in a kill zone. Which, by the way, if you don't know what kill zones are, it's basically 2 to 5 AM New York. That's the London kill zone. And the New York kill zone is going to be 7 AM to 10 AM. Depending on what time you watch this video, chances are you're going to be taking advantage of the New York kill zone. Now, I will be posting any updates on X later on, but just keep in mind, like, I will have a Blueprint live trading call. And, you know, if I don't post on X, then Probably it's because I am live trading with the guys in Blueprint. Yesterday we had a bootcamp live trading call and we ended up getting 3 wins and 1 small loss. And the bootcamp members will be the first one to shout out, like, you know, we usually make money on these calls. But outside of that, we're going to take a look at a couple of forex setups because I think these are also pretty interesting. Now on gold so far, you have, you know, London, you have a bearish daily bias and London has already swept out the Asia highs. So this is a little bit more of a London setup. At the moment though, it's in the last couple of hours, we haven't really had much happening. But either way, you're going to be looking for a short setup. Today on gold, like definitely keep this in mind as like over here you have a bearish 1-hourly PD array and who knows, you might, you know, come up and sweep this high again, but that would also make it a 3-dice pattern straight into, you know, the same PD array. If that happens and you get a CSD towards the downside during the New York session, this is going to be one banger trade. Now the other one to keep in mind is going to be USD/CAD. Now yesterday we had a solid trade. In fact, I just realized now that I've missed this trade, although I know, not really. CSDs have already happened here. Uh, USD/CAD, you're looking super bearish. Yesterday we already had a banger, but otherwise yesterday called it on the bootcamp live trading call. And so far, daily bias is still bearish. In the daily chart, you are coming back into a bearish order block. And right now on the 5-minute chart, during the London session, you've already had a CSD towards the downside. So right after I'm done with this video, I'm going to be hopping into a short. By the way, like, by the time you watch this video, if price is already kind of like breaking lower, doesn't mean that you're too late. It means that momentum is still really strong towards the bearish direction, and it won't be too late to just take advantage of newly formed order blocks and fair value gaps that form. So for example, right here, right, when price breaks below this level, this would become a new order block and you can just take advantage of that. USDCAD though, looking very, very clean. And NASDAQ, of course, NASDAQ and Australian dollar actually are looking pretty decent as well. NASDAQ is clearly heading for this liquidity level. Yesterday, two of our wins actually came on NASDAQ, just taking advantage of, you know, that bullish move. In fact, I will be happy to share it. Later. But for now, like, you're looking to come back into this PD array at what, 26,445 to bullish order block. And once that happens, you're good to go to just kind of catch along with that daily target. And I know it looks a little bit far away, but keep in mind you are dealing with the NASDAQ here. NASDAQ usually moves a couple, like, you know, $400 to $500, or rather 400 to 500 points in a single day, which is kind of what happened yesterday. By the time we jumped in, it was at 26, and we set a target at 26,250. So that's like 250 points. So that was the bigger win of yesterday. So overall, you're still looking pretty good. But now, let me just get into a couple of trade breakdowns so that, you know, you can hopefully be able to achieve this more for yourself. Yesterday, prior to the 9:30 AM candle open, we saw a CIC towards the upside. So over here, I think that was a CIC, and price basically formed this order block over here. So I entered, placed a stop underneath the order block, and then targeted for 2R. Now, 2R just happens to align with yesterday's current daily high at the time. And yeah, this was win number 1. And then once I realized that after the 9:30 AM candle, you formed a new order block right over here with this 9:55 AM candle, you formed a new order block. That's when I just placed the limit over there on the very next candle, got filled, placed the stop loss beneath the order block, and then I targeted for a cheeky 3R targeting that daily high. Now that was the second trade of the day. So just understand, as long as bullish momentum is present, this is how you kind of take advantage of it. And if you appreciate this lesson, drop a comment down below. And one thing's for sure, you're going to learn how to do this and more inside Blueprint, which is my full system from, you know, not only just the technical analysis, but also primarily, but also, you know, the psychology and the executional frameworks, because we all know that understanding or learning more technical, you know, analysis concepts does not always translate into wins. It's more about how you use them on a day-to-day basis. That's kind of what determines your success as a trader. But otherwise, I have to get going because I've got a really early reservation today at another culinary class wars restaurant. So yeah, Gonna go enjoy some life, and I'll see you guys later during the New York session. Ciao ciao!
