WideBar Defining BOTH Support and Resistance with Volume Spikes

Anthony here from Hawkeye Traders, and today I want to share a powerful strategy with you—one that’s often overlooked but can significantly enhance your trading game: leveraging volume spikes to pinpoint key market areas

In this video, we’re diving into a real-life example with Nvidia on a daily chart. We’ve all seen those wide bars on our charts, but do you know how to interpret them? These wide bars signify significant volume spikes, often indicating pivotal moments in price action.

Let’s break it down. When Nvidia attempted to break above certain highs but encountered strong selling with a wide bar, it created what we call a volume climax. This typically establishes a zone of resistance where buyers struggle to push prices higher. 

Conversely, when Nvidia experienced strong selling followed by zero follow-through and a wide bar to the downside, it signaled potential support—a level where buyers stepped in to drive prices back up.

Here’s the key insight: integrating volume spikes alongside price action gives you a holistic view of market dynamics. It’s like unlocking the missing piece of the puzzle. By paying attention to these volume radar dots and wide bars, you gain a deeper understanding of market sentiment and potential future movements.

Personally, I use the Hawkeye indicators to spot these critical signals. Whether you’re day trading, swing trading, or investing across various assets, these indicators provide clarity and confidence in your trading decisions. They’re compatible with platforms like TradingView, TradeStation, NinjaTrader, and MetaTrader—ensuring you can apply these principles across different markets seamlessly.

Volume Confirmation: Trading Topping Patterns Effectively

volume confirmation

Trading A Topping Pattern Using Volume Confirmation

Anthony Speciale here from Hawkeye Traders, and I’m excited to dive into today’s strategy with you.

Today, we’re focusing on identifying topping patterns, bottoming patterns, and potential reversals in the market, using volume confirmation as a key trigger for entering low-risk setups.

Let’s start by looking at the US Dollar Index Futures. Recently, we’ve seen a clear topping pattern emerge as prices pushed into highs accompanied by significant buying volume.

However, despite these attempts, the market has failed to sustain these highs, forming what I identify as a meaningful resistance area.

When I pinpoint a potential high or low like this, my next step is crucial: I identify the nearest support or resistance level.

This step helps me gauge the significance of price movements and plan my trades accordingly.

In this case, the former resistance has now become a potential support level, which we’ve seen tested and retested in recent price action.

In trading, especially when dealing with tops and bottoms, it’s common for a neckline or support line to be breached and then retested.

This sets up a classic trading opportunity where we wait for the break, observe increased selling volume, and then look for a pullback above that level.

This approach minimizes our risk exposure while maximizing potential returns.

For instance, let’s take a recent setup where we identified a top formation.

After a break below support with notable selling volume, we waited for a pullback on neutral volume.

As soon as sellers re-entered above the support line, we entered a short position.

This setup allowed us to risk a small amount for the potential of capturing a substantial move to the downside—a strategy that delivered over a 5% gain.

The key here is understanding price action and combining it with volume confirmation to build a comprehensive trading thesis.

Whether you’re trading intraday, swing trading, or positioning yourself in the market, these principles remain universal and effective across various asset classes.

I’ve crafted this video to share these insights with you, showcasing how to integrate volume into your trading decisions.

By mastering these techniques, you gain a sharper edge in anticipating market moves and executing trades with confidence.

If you found value in this strategy, I encourage you to explore further by joining our upcoming training webinar.

This webinar dives deeper into volume analysis and price action strategies, equipping you with the tools to navigate complex market dynamics effectively.

Remember, successful trading is about minimizing risk and maximizing opportunities.

I look forward to seeing you there and continuing this journey towards trading mastery.

Until then, may the markets be in your favor!

Volume Analysis: Trading Gold Futures

volume analysis

Volume Analysis: Buying Continuation Above A Hawkeye WideBar – Identified LIVE

Anthony Speciale here with Hawkeye Traders.

Today, I’m diving deep into the crucial strategy of incorporating volume into our trading analysis, especially during significant economic data releases.

Let’s focus on the gold futures market, a prime example of how volume analysis can guide trading decisions in real-time.

Understanding Market Reaction to Economic News

In the world of trading, economic data releases like the Consumer Price Index (CPI), crude oil inventory reports, and Federal Reserve announcements can significantly impact market movements.

These events often bring heightened volatility, presenting both opportunities and challenges.

This morning, we witnessed a classic example of this with the gold futures market.

At 8:30 AM, the CPI report was released, leading to a wide bar with ultra-high buying volume.

This spike indicated a favorable market reaction, but the key question was whether this movement would sustain or if it was merely a volume climax—a temporary reaction without follow-through.

Volume Climax vs. Sustained Movement

A volume climax occurs when a sudden surge in trading volume leads to a sharp price movement, which then quickly reverses.

To avoid getting caught in such traps, it’s essential to wait for confirmation.

In this case, I advised waiting for a close above the high of the initial wide bar.

This confirmation would suggest that the buying pressure was not just reactionary but indicative of a sustained movement.

Real-Time Analysis and Decision Making

At 8:45 AM, we got the confirmation we were waiting for: a close above the high of the wide bar with continued buying support.

This indicated that the market was likely to continue its upward trajectory.

Indeed, the market rallied for over 100 ticks before hitting resistance around the 9:30 AM opening bell.

This real-time analysis was crucial.

By patiently waiting for confirmation, we avoided the potential pitfall of a volume climax and capitalized on a significant price movement.

This approach demonstrates the power of volume analysis in making informed, calculated trading decisions.

volume analysis

Patience: The Trader’s Virtue

Patience is often the hardest lesson for traders to learn.

It’s tempting to act on the initial surge of activity, but waiting for confirmation can significantly increase your chances of success.

In this instance, waiting just 15 minutes for a close above the high of the wide bar allowed us to confidently enter a trade with a clear direction.

Managing Expectations and Market Conditions

Later in the day, we anticipated further market turbulence with the Federal Reserve’s FOMC meeting minutes and rate announcements.

Knowing that these events could cause significant market shifts, it was prudent to avoid taking new positions until the market had digested this information.

Key Takeaways for Retail Traders

  • Volume Analysis: Always pay close attention to volume. High volume on a wide bar can indicate significant buying or selling pressure.
  • Wait for Confirmation: Avoid getting caught in volume climaxes by waiting for a close above (or below) the high (or low) of the wide bar.
  • Patience and Discipline: Be willing to wait for the right setup. This discipline can prevent costly mistakes and enhance your trading outcomes.
  • Risk Management: Always be aware of major economic events that could impact your trades and adjust your strategy accordingly.

Incorporating volume into your trading analysis, especially during significant economic data releases, can provide valuable insights and improve your trading decisions.

By focusing on volume, waiting for confirmation, and maintaining patience and discipline, you can navigate market volatility more effectively.

Trading Breakouts and Volume Analysis

Trading Breakouts

Trading Breakouts: Using Volume To Identify BOTH A Failed Breakout And A Successful Breakout

Welcome to the video, everyone! Anthony Speciale here with Hawkeye Traders. I hope you’re having a fantastic day. 

Today, I want to delve into a couple of crucial strategies for retail traders: breaking out of trend lines or channel structures and employing volume to your advantage.

These techniques can be incredibly beneficial when applied correctly, regardless of the market or timeframe you are trading. 

Real-Time Analysis: The Key to Credibility

One of the reasons I emphasize real-time analysis is the credibility it brings.

When you can identify what’s happening in the market as it unfolds, it adds a layer of trust and reliability to your trading strategy. 

Hindsight trading, where you look back and say you would have done something differently, lacks this immediacy and practical relevance.

Scenario 1: The Failed Breakout

Let’s start with the first scenario. At 9:00 AM Eastern Standard Time, we observed a breakout from a channel structure. 

This breakout occurred on a wide bar with ultra-high buying volume, the highest volume traded up to that point in the session. 

Despite the initial push, the price did not close in the top 10% of the bar, leading to an immediate failure.

This situation, known as a volume climax, is a common pitfall.

When trading breakouts with ultra-high volume, be cautious if there is no immediate follow-through. More often than not, this leads to a failed breakout. 

In this case, the price fell back below the channel structure, turning what was once support into resistance. 

This shift provided a beautiful shorting opportunity across the channel structure, yielding over 50 ticks.

Scenario 2: The Successful Breakout

Later in the morning, at 11:21 AM, we saw another breakout from the same channel structure. 

This time, the breakout occurred on a reasonable uptick in volume—nothing extreme, but enough to be significant. 

Without any alarming volume spikes or radar dots, this breakout was more promising.

Here’s the critical part: after breaking out, the price retested the previous resistance, now turned support. 

During this retest, the volume increased, indicating a strong buyer presence.

By 11:30 AM, the price exploded higher on a wide bar that closed at its peak, moving another 50 plus ticks.

The Importance of Context

The success of these strategies hinges on understanding market context. Randomly picking volume and price action without context won’t yield good results. 

Identifying meaningful areas, like trend lines and channel structures, allows you to interpret volume and price action around those areas effectively.

Trading Breakouts
Trading Breakouts

In the first scenario, the ultra-high volume and subsequent failure highlighted a perfect shorting opportunity. In the second scenario, the reasonable volume increase and successful retest confirmed a strong buying opportunity. 

Both scenarios provided 100 plus tick moves in opposite directions, demonstrating the power of this approach.

Employing Volume and Price Action in Your Trading

To master these techniques, you need to integrate volume and price action into your trading foundation. 

Relying solely on magical indicators won’t get you far. Instead, you must become the indicator by interpreting volume and price action in real time. 

This method significantly improved my trading consistency and discipline, and it can do the same for you.

At Hawkeye Traders, we provide the tools and training to help you achieve this.

Our volume paint bars, wide bars, pivots, and radar dots, combined with the Hawkeye Mastery Library, offer a comprehensive methodology to enhance your trading strategy.

Understanding and applying these tools will allow you to identify and act on market opportunities effectively.

Mastering market breakouts through volume and price action is a game-changer.

By focusing on these techniques and incorporating them into your trading plan, you can significantly improve your trading outcomes. 

Thank you for joining me today. If you have any questions or need further assistance, feel free to reach out. And have a wonderful day!

How Understanding Volume, Price Action, and Multi-Timeframe Confluence Can Transform Your Trading

Anthony Speciale here from Hawkeye Traders, welcome to another insightful session!

Today, I’m diving deep into a swing trade setup for Bitcoin, exploring how you can leverage multiple confluences of support to enhance your trading accuracy and profitability.

Whether you’re a seasoned trader or just starting, this post will guide you through essential techniques that can make a monumental difference in your trading career.

The Power of Multi-Timeframe Analysis

In the video, I’m meticulously breaking down the Bitcoin futures market using a multi-timeframe analysis.

By examining daily, weekly, and monthly charts simultaneously, you can identify stronger and more reliable support and resistance levels.

For example, on January 23, 2024, Bitcoin was visiting support on both the daily and weekly timeframes, while also creating new support levels on the monthly chart.

This comprehensive view allows traders to pinpoint optimal entry and exit points, minimizing risk and maximizing potential returns.

The video showcases how, by recognizing these critical support areas, you could have captured a massive move from $41,455 to $75,000—a $30,000 swing!

Key Trading Insights:

  • Identifying Weak Highs and Strong Lows: By understanding volume and price action, you can determine whether a price level is likely to hold or break. For instance, when Bitcoin formed a weak high due to decreasing buying volume, it signaled a potential reversal.
  • Confluence Across Timeframes: Combining support and resistance levels from daily, weekly, and monthly charts significantly increases the probability of a successful trade. Multiple confirmations provide the confidence needed to take low-risk, high-reward trades.
  • Volume as a Leading Indicator: Volume provides insight into market intent, allowing traders to anticipate potential price movements. High volume at key support or resistance levels can indicate strong buying or selling interest, guiding your trading decisions.

The Hawkeye Advantage

The importance of understanding the relationship between volume, price action, and multi-timeframe confluence is invaluable.

I attributes my success to Hawkeye’s volume-driven software and the comprehensive training available through the Hawkeye Mastery Library. These tools enable traders to decode market signals accurately and make informed decisions.

Mastering Swing Trades with Hawkeye Zones: A Deep Dive into Valero Energy Corporation (VLO)

FREE Hawkeye Zones – This Week Only ! ! !

VLO Lower High Short Entry [WATCH NOW]

Anthony Speciale here from Hawkeye Traders, hoping you’re having a fantastic day!

Today, we’re diving into a powerful swing trade setup using price action analysis, volume analysis, and supply and demand dynamics.

This approach can significantly enhance your trading accuracy, and I’m excited to show you how . . .

The Setup: Valero Energy Corporation (Ticker: VLO)

In this analysis, we’re focusing on Valero Energy Corporation (VLO).

We’ll be looking at three different time frames: the daily chart, the weekly chart, and the monthly chart.

This multi-timeframe approach allows us to spot high-probability trade setups with greater precision.

The Weak High Indicator

Back in early April, Valero hit an all-time high. However, this high was made on decreasing buying volume, signaling a potential weak high.

As traders, we don’t want to guess tops or bottoms unless there’s clear evidence. In this case, the weak high was an early indicator that prices might not go higher.

Identifying Lower Highs and Lower Lows

As the market began to push lower, we looked for a lower high where we could confidently enter a short position. The market consolidated, created supply areas, and consistently made lower highs and lower lows.

This pattern strengthened our thesis that the price might continue to decline.

The Key Candle on May 17

A critical point came with the candle printed on May 17th, which showed very strong increasing buying volume. However, if the next candle didn’t follow through, it indicated that buyers might have climaxed, providing a low-risk shorting opportunity.

Entering at $166 with a stop at $169, we risked a small amount to potentially gain a lot if the market confirmed our analysis.

Multi-Timeframe Confluence

What made this setup particularly compelling was the confluence across multiple timeframes.

Not only did the daily chart show resistance, but the weekly chart also aligned with a supply area.

Additionally, the monthly chart displayed a red top, indicating a potential for a strong reversal.

Protecting Your Profits

As we pushed lower and reached new lows, it was crucial to take profits and protect our position.

Moving stops to break even as we approached prior lows ensured that we maximized our gains while minimizing risk.

Remember, two emotions drive traders: greed and fear. Always pay yourself and protect your capital.

The Hawkeye Advantage

Understanding the relationship between volume, price action, and multiple timeframes is crucial.

At Hawkeye, we offer tools that can help you gain this understanding and transform your trading career.

Mastering Short-Term Forex Trading with Hawkeye Zones

Hello, traders! Anthony Speciale here with Hawkeye Traders.

In today’s video, we dive into the exciting world of short-term Forex trading, specifically for those of you who are intraday traders.

We’re focusing on how you can achieve great precision in your trades by leveraging Hawkeye Zones and multiple time frame confluence.

Why Short-Term Forex Trading?

Short-term Forex trading, or scalping, offers the potential for quick profits by capitalizing on small price movements within a short period.

For those of you who enjoy the fast pace of intraday trading, this strategy is particularly beneficial. Scalping requires precise entry and exit points, and that’s where Hawkeye Zones come into play.

Analyzing the Australian Dollar/US Dollar Pair

In this video, we analyze the Australian Dollar/US Dollar (AUD/USD) currency pair using three time frames:

  • 3-minute chart (main window on the left)
  • 6-minute chart (top right)
  • 12-minute chart (bottom right)

By doubling the time frame with each chart, we gain a comprehensive view of the market, which is crucial for identifying short-term trading opportunities.

The Power of Multiple Time Frame Confluence

The key to successful short-term trading lies in aligning multiple time frames.

When all time frames show support or resistance at the same level, the probability of a successful trade increases significantly.

Let’s look at a specific example:

  • 3-Minute Chart: The price pulls back into a support zone, offering a low-risk entry point.
  • 6-Minute Chart: The same support zone is tested, confirming the potential for a bounce.
  • 12-Minute Chart: Again, the support zone is validated, reinforcing our trade setup.

This confluence across multiple time frames gives us confidence in the trade.

We see a strong bounce off the support levels, leading to a profitable move from 0.66421 to 0.66538.

The Hawkeye Advantage

Using Hawkeye Zones, we can:

  • Identify key support and resistance levels.
  • Align multiple time frames to find high-probability trade setups.
  • Reduce risk by placing stops just below the support zones.

This approach is not only effective for short-term traders but also for swing and position traders.

Whether you’re trading stocks, futures, Forex, or cryptocurrencies, understanding volume and price action through Hawkeye’s tools can dramatically improve your trading performance.

An Exclusive Offer Just for You

To help you master these techniques, we have an exclusive offer – this week only.

When you invest in the Hawkeye software this week, we’ll give you the Hawkeye Zones for FREE—an $800 VALUE!

This combination of tools will transform your trading by providing deeper insights into volume and price action across multiple time frames.

Multi-Time Frame Confluence: The Key to Strategic Trading

When trading using supply and demand zones, the critical factor is the confluence between multiple time frames. We’ll be looking at a 60-minute chart, a 240-minute chart, and a daily chart to identify high-probability trade setups.

Here’s why multi-time frame analysis is crucial:

  • Big Picture Insight: The 240-minute and daily charts give us a broader market perspective, identifying significant support and resistance levels.
  • Precision Execution: The 60-minute chart allows us to execute trades with pinpoint accuracy, aligning our entries with the larger trends identified on the higher time frames.

Real-Time Example: Spotting a $100 Move

In our example, we identify support at 5210 on the 240-minute chart and at 5267.75 on the daily chart.

These levels indicate strong potential for a market reversal.

By combining these insights, we can confidently enter trades with minimal risk and maximum reward.

For instance, spotting the confluence of support levels and observing price action at these points can yield substantial moves.

In this case, recognizing the support at 5210 led to a significant move up to nearly 5310, a remarkable $100 gain in the S&P 500 futures within a short period.

The Power of Hawkeye Zones

To help you implement this strategy effectively, we’re offering an incredible deal. When you invest in Hawkeye software this week, you’ll receive the Hawkeye Zones for FREE.

  • Identifying Key Levels: Hawkeye Zones highlight crucial support and resistance areas across multiple time frames, enhancing your market analysis.

Unlocking the Power of Multi-Timeframe Analysis on AAPL + FREE Hawkeye Zones – This Week Only ! ! !

Anthony Speciale here with Hawkeye Traders. I’m thrilled to share an exciting strategy with you today, specifically designed to enhance your trading efficiency and success.

Plus, I have an incredible offer at the end of this post that you won’t want to miss.

Why Apple?

In this video, we’ll analyze Apple Inc. (AAPL), a stock that’s well-known for its volatility and liquidity, making it a favorite among day traders, swing traders, and position traders alike.

We’ll focus on a swing trading setup, although the principles discussed can be applied to shorter-term position trades as well. By leveraging supply and demand and multi-timeframe confluence, you can significantly enhance your trading strategy.

The Power of Multi-Timeframe Confluence

Multi-timeframe confluence is one of the most powerful techniques for developing a repeatable and reliable trading plan.

By aligning the bigger picture with smaller timeframes, you can execute trades with precision and minimize your risk.

In this analysis, we’ll use:

  • Daily Chart (left side)
  • Weekly Chart (top right)
  • Monthly Chart (bottom right)

Although these timeframes may seem extensive, they provide a comprehensive view of the market, crucial for swing trading and position trading.

Identifying Key Levels

Let’s examine a specific example from 2023, focusing on a significant low followed by a strong rally.

This setup illustrates how higher timeframe confluence can guide your trades.

  • Draw Key Levels: Begin by marking significant support levels on the weekly and monthly charts. For instance, a key support level at $126.41 on the weekly chart aligns with a larger support zone around $137.98 on the monthly chart.
  • Look for Confirmation: Once these support levels are identified, shift your focus to the daily chart. You’re looking for buying volume to confirm the support. In our example, a robust buying surge at around $130 signals a strong entry point.
  • Plan Your Trade: Enter the trade at the confirmed support level. In this case, buying Apple at $130.

Executing the Trade

With the entry point identified, it’s essential to manage your trade effectively:

  • Monitor Weekly Chart: Use the weekly chart to track the trade and identify potential profit-taking points.
  • Profit Targets: Set profit targets at previous highs, such as $156.20, $164.20, and $175.20.
  • Risk Management: Keep your stop-loss just below the support zone. If the price breaks below this zone, exit the trade to protect your capital.

Practical Insights

This strategy’s beauty lies in its predictability and precision.

By using higher timeframes to confirm support and resistance levels, you can enter trades with confidence and maximize your potential for profit.

For instance, in our example, buying Apple at $130 and riding the trend up to $200 provides a substantial return, all thanks to multi-timeframe analysis.

Special Offer: Hawkeye Zones FREE With Indicator Purchase

As promised, I have an exclusive offer for you. This week only, when you invest in the Hawkeye Indicator Package, we’ll include the Hawkeye Zones for FREE.

These timeframes are crucial for both day trading and swing trading. 

For swing trading, I focus on the 4-hr chart; for day trading, I zero in on the 5-min chart. 

By combining these timeframes, I can better align my trades with market momentum.

Identifying Key Levels

Using my cursor, I identify areas of supply or resistance. 

For example, if I spot a high point on the 60-minute chart, I check if the 4-hour chart also shows resistance. This confluence of timeframes strengthens the likelihood of the market behaving as anticipated.

Trading Strategy

When higher timeframes align, the market is more likely to move in your favor. Here’s a breakdown:

  • Identify Supply/Resistance Zones: Look for these zones on both the 60-minute and 4-hour charts.
  • Check Short-Term Trends: On the 5-minute chart, ensure a downtrend is developing in these zones.
  • Execute Trades: If all charts confirm a bearish trend, it’s a strong signal to go short.

Practical Example

Let’s consider a scenario:

  • Supply/Resistance Zone: The 60-minute and 4-hour charts both show a resistance zone.
  • Short-Term Downtrend: The 5-minute chart confirms a downtrend starting at around 80.40.
  • Trade Execution: Enter a short position targeting a move down to around 79.40.

Confluence—where multiple timeframes agree—is key to successful trading. When higher timeframes show momentum in the same direction as your shorter timeframe, it increases the chances of a successful trade.

Avoiding Choppiness

Focus on trading when the market is moving, not during consolidation. On the 5-minute chart, avoid trades when the market is choppy and wait for clear directional movement.

Using Trends and Stops

Add trend indicators to your charts. For example, trend dots on the 60-minute chart can indicate uptrends and downtrends. When price bars lead the trend dots, it signifies momentum; when they enter the trend dots, it indicates consolidation.

Tailoring to Your Style

Whether you’re a day trader, swing trader, or position trader, understanding the bigger picture is vital. Over the next few videos, I’ll cover different trading styles to help you see how these principles apply across various approaches.

Live Analysis: Real-Time Crude Oil Trade

Real-Time Crude Oil Trade: Insights from Live Analysis

Greetings, fellow traders! Anthony Speciale here, and I hope you’re having a wonderful day. Today, I’m excited to walk you through an actual trade, complete with live analysis. This isn’t hindsight analysis or cherry-picking; this is genuine, real-time market analysis, conducted live in front of traders using real money.

The goal is to showcase the credibility and effectiveness of live hawkeye volume and price action analysis, which sets successful traders apart.

Analyzing the Crude Oil Trade

Let’s dive into a specific trade on light sweet crude oil. This is the exact screen I trade on, and I’ll guide you through my thought process and the tools I used to pinpoint high-probability, low-risk entry points.

Real-Time Crude Oil Trade: Insights from Live Analysis
Live analysis

The Setup: Identifying Market Conditions

On the top left of the screen, you’ll see a 4-hour chart, which is my primary tool for analysis. Crude oil had been on a significant uptrend, breaking recent highs from May 20th and continuing to push higher.

However, by early morning, between 4:00 AM and 7:00 AM, the price action entered a consolidative state. This period of stagnation was a key indicator that a correction might be imminent.

The Prediction: Anticipating a Correction

Given the aggressive uptrend, I anticipated a potential correction. Markets that rise rapidly often experience sharp corrections. I advised my audience that we were likely to see a breather or pullback soon. This prediction proved accurate as the price action eventually broke out of the consolidation zone.

The Trade: Entering Based on Volume Analysis

Using Hawkeye volume indicators, I pinpointed the ideal entry points.

Once we broke below the consolidation area, the market confirmed a correction. Specifically, I noted that if we could stay below the 80.20 level, the price had a strong chance of retesting and breaking past prior lows.

Execution: Capturing the Move

Here’s how the trade unfolded:

  • Initial Short Entry: At the 80.20 level, capturing a move that provided over 100 ticks of profit.
  • Secondary Entry: For those who missed the initial entry, a second opportunity arose when the price retraced to the prior low on high buying volume, which then turned into resistance. This provided another chance to enter short, yielding around 75 ticks.

The Key: Understanding Volume and Price Action

Identifying these trading opportunities relies heavily on understanding the relationship between volume and price action. The Hawkeye tools are designed to help traders recognize areas where reversals or continuations are likely to occur.

The Hawkeye Advantage

Hawkeye tools provide the advantage of real-time volume analysis, enabling traders to:

  • Spot Reversals and Continuations: By analyzing volume, traders can make informed decisions about market trends.
  • Access the Hawkeye Mastery Library: This resource offers extensive educational materials to help traders interpret volume and price action effectively.

Trading successfully requires a deep understanding of market dynamics. Whether you’re day trading, swing trading, or position trading, mastering volume and price action is essential. The Hawkeye tools and Mastery classes are invaluable resources that can elevate your trading game.

If you’re ready to take your trading to the next level, I encourage you to explore the Hawkeye indicators and educational resources. Understanding volume and price action will help you navigate the markets with confidence and precision.

Thank you for being here with me today. Keep learning, and stay focused!

High Volume Candles: Insights from the S&P 500 Session Sell-Off

Today, let’s dive into the opening bell of the S&P 500 and uncover the critical insights from the market’s initial movements.

As a live trader of the futures market, I want to walk you through what I observed, how it unfolded, and what it means for your trading strategy.

Key Observations at the Opening Bell

Time of Focus: 9:30 AM EST The U.S. session kicks off at 9:30 AM EST.

At this precise moment, we witnessed a notable candle with ultra-high buying volume. Let’s break down why this is important and how it set the tone for the day . . .

Ultra-High Buying Volume:

  • At 9:30 AM, the market printed the highest buying volume candle of the session, surpassing even the overnight activity. This candle opened and closed at the same price, indicating significant buying pressure without any price advancement. This is a red flag signaling potential resistance.

Market Reaction:

  • Post 9:30 AM, the market failed to push higher despite the buying volume, indicating resistance. The area around this candle’s wick became a strong supply zone, tested multiple times throughout the day, but never breached.

ADD Hawkeye Volume, Volume Radar, Volume Paintbar and Wide Bar to your charts NOW!

Interpreting the Data

Understanding such market behavior can help you make informed trading decisions. Here’s a step-by-step breakdown:

Resistance Identification:

  • The 9:30 AM candle created a clear resistance level. The market’s inability to move above this point despite high buying volume suggested downward pressure.

Trend Line Analysis:

  • Drawing a trend line from the session’s 10am low through subsequent lows provided additional confirmation. The market tested this trend line multiple times before breaking it and retesting it as resistance, further confirming the bearish trend.

Volume and Price Action:

  • Combining volume indicators with price action helps in identifying significant market movements. The failure to break above the 9:30 AM high volume candle, followed by a break and retest of the trend line, set the stage for a bearish continuation.

high volume candles

Practical Application

As a retail trader, here’s how you can apply these insights:

Watch Key Candles:

  • Pay attention to high volume candles at market opens. These high volume candles often set the tone for the day and indicate critical support or resistance levels.

Use Trend Lines:

  • Draw trend lines to track the market’s direction. A break and retest of these lines can signal entry and exit points.

Combine Volume with Price Action:

  • High volume candles without price movement often indicate resistance or support. Use volume analysis alongside price action to confirm market sentiment.

    By understanding and analyzing how high volume candles and price action interact with one another, you can develop a more robust trading strategy.

The key is to recognize significant volume spikes and how the market reacts to them.

Ready to dive deeper into these concepts, our Hawkeye Volume and Price Action Mastery Library is a resource I couldn’t imagine trading without!

Nasdaq Tee’s Up! 500+ Tick Rally

Welcome to today’s blog post, where we delve into a critical aspect of successful trading: effective market analysis through the lens of volume and price action. In this case, I explain through a live NASDAQ trade as shown in my most recent video.

I’m Anthony Speciale with Hawkeye Traders, and I’m excited to share insights that can transform your trading strategy.

Today, we’ll explore how to identify key market signals, interpret volume and price action, and use these tools to enhance your trading performance.

The Power of Volume and Price Action

Understanding volume and price action is fundamental to successful trading.

These two elements provide a window into market dynamics, allowing traders to make informed decisions based on market behavior.

At Hawkeye, we emphasize the importance of these tools and provide comprehensive resources to help traders master them.

Nasdaq Tee's Up ‍♂️ 500+ Tick Rally
nasdaq

Identifying Market Signals

One of the first steps in market analysis is identifying significant price levels and volume surges. Let’s break down a recent NASDAQ trade to illustrate this.

Step 1: Recognizing Key Levels

Early in the morning, the NASDAQ built a base that was ripe for a breakout.

The first crucial step was identifying the low point, which serves as a support level.

Observing high volume surges and wide bars—key indicators provided by Hawkeye—can highlight these critical areas.

These wide bars and volume indicators draw attention to significant market movements, whether they signal a reversal, continuation, or another meaningful event.

Step 2: Understanding Volume and Price Interaction

Volume and price action are interconnected, providing context for market moves.

At Hawkeye, we teach traders not just to use indicators but to understand the story they tell.

For example, at 8:30 AM, an ultra-high volume radar dot and a wide bar signaled significant activity.

These indicators suggest that something important is happening, prompting traders to pay close attention.

Patience Pays Off

One of the hardest lessons for traders is learning to wait for the right opportunity.

It requires discipline and experience to let the market come to you rather than rushing into trades.

By putting in the time and observing market conditions, traders can develop a deeper understanding of when to act.

Step 3: Contextual Analysis

Looking at prior price action can provide valuable context.

For instance, identifying the overnight high and how the market reacts around these levels can offer clues about future movements.

Drawing lines on the chart to mark these levels can help visualize where support and resistance are likely to occur.

Trading the Breakout

When the market breaks out of a consolidation phase, it often presents a lucrative trading opportunity.

Here’s how to approach it:

Step 4: Waiting for Confirmation

Rather than jumping in as soon as the market moves, wait for confirmation.

A close above a significant level—such as the wick of a high-volume candle—can confirm the breakout.

In our example, waiting for the market to retest this level after breaking out provides confirmation and a potential entry point with less risk.

Step 5: Managing Risk

Risk management is paramount.

Placing your stop loss just below the retest level minimizes risk while maximizing potential profit.

By waiting for the retest, you can enter the trade with a tighter stop, reducing the amount you stand to lose if the trade doesn’t go as planned.

The Results

In our NASDAQ example, the market confirmed the breakout with a strong close above the significant level and retested it, providing a low-risk entry point.

This setup allowed for a substantial profit as the market moved significantly in a short period.

The Hawkeye Advantage

At Hawkeye, we equip traders with the tools and knowledge needed to make informed decisions.

Our software highlights key market signals, and our Mastery course teaches you how to interpret these signals within the broader market context.

By focusing on volume and price action, you can develop a robust trading strategy that prioritizes risk management and increases your chances of success.

Volume and price action should be at the forefront of your trading plan.

They provide critical insights that can help you understand market movements and make better trading decisions.

If your current results aren’t meeting your expectations, I encourage you to revisit your trade plan and consider incorporating volume and price action analysis.

At Hawkeye, we are dedicated to helping traders grow and succeed.

Trading is a journey of continuous learning, and with the right tools and mindset, you can achieve consistent success.

Enhancing Trading Success with a Solid Trade Plan

Enhancing Trading Success with a Solid Trade Plan

Welcome to today’s analysis, where we delve into the intricacies of a quick, but successful LIVE crude oil trade. I’m Anthony Speciale from Hawkeye Traders, and I’m here to guide you through a setup I executed this morning.

We’ll explore the price action, volume analysis, and the thought process behind the trade, emphasizing risk-reward and adherence to a trade plan.

This detailed walkthrough aims to enhance your understanding and help you make informed trading decisions based on the Mastery teachings of Hawkeye Traders.

The Setup

This morning, I approached the market with no initial intention of trading. However, when the setup aligned perfectly with my trade plan criteria, I couldn’t resist. Trading is about probabilities and making informed decisions based on the relationship between volume and price action.

Here’s a step-by-step breakdown of the trade:

Observing the Market

During the overnight session, an awkward bottom formed between 8:10 and 9:20 PM. This period of over an hour saw price action repeatedly hitting a support level without breaking through. This consolidation was significant, indicating a potential trading opportunity.

When I sat down at my trading desk, I noticed this consolidation zone. Price had previously reacted strongly at this level, bouncing off and creating a bottoming pattern. This repetitive price action highlighted a critical support zone worth monitoring.

Analyzing Key Levels

I marked this support level on my chart and kept an eye on the price action as it unfolded. Despite my early departure plan, the market conditions met my criteria for a trade. The initial consolidation, followed by a strong volume surge, was crucial.

Price action showed signs of struggling to break above a significant resistance level marked by a previous high. This failure, coupled with high buying volume and a lack of follow-through, signaled a short trade opportunity.

Enhancing Trading Success with a Solid Trade Plan
trade plan

Technical Analysis and Decision-Making

As price approached the session VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price), I anticipated a test of this level. My trade plan involved shorting the market with a tight stop and targeting the VWAP for a quick profit. This strategy was based on the high probability of a pullback after a strong volume surge identified by Hawkeye Volume Radar with no follow-through.

I entered the trade at 76.75, with a stop at 76.80, risking five ticks. My target was the VWAP, around 15 ticks away, offering a 3:1 risk-reward ratio. This alignment with my trade plan gave me confidence in the setup.

Managing the Trade

The market behaved as expected, moving swiftly towards the VWAP. Upon hitting the VWAP, I covered the majority of my position, locking in profits. I left a small portion of the trade open to see if the market would push further down to retest the lows. However, it didn’t, and I was stopped out at break-even for the remaining position.

This trade exemplified the importance of following a well-defined trade plan. Even with minimal screen time, understanding key levels and volume dynamics enabled me to execute a successful trade with limited risk.

Key Takeaways for Retail Traders

  • Volume and Price Action Relationship: Understanding how volume influences price action is crucial. High volume with no follow-through often indicates a reversal or strong support/resistance.
  • Risk-Reward Ratio: Always ensure your trades have a favorable risk-reward ratio. In this case, a 3:1 ratio provided a clear edge.
  • Trade Plan Adherence: Stick to your trade plan. Enter trades only when your criteria are met, and manage your risk diligently.
  • Market Context: Recognize significant levels and market context. Previous highs and lows often act as strong support or resistance.

Today’s trade demonstrates the power of strategic trading based on Hawkeye Volume and Price Action analysis. By following a disciplined approach and focusing on high-probability setups, you can achieve consistent results in the market.

[LIVE] Calling Session High: Identifying 2024’s YTD Largest Broad Market Sell-Off

[LIVE] Calling Session High: Identifying 2024's YTD Largest Broad Market Sell-Off

Anthony Speciale here from Hawkeye Traders, and I’m thrilled to share some insights with you today.

As many of you experienced, today was an eventful day in the markets, and there’s a lot we can learn from it.

The Power of the 8:30 AM Candle

Let’s dive right into the action. At 8:30 AM, we received some significant economic data, which had a profound impact on the market.

The 8:30 AM candle printed the highest buying volume of the session, accompanied by what we at Hawkeye refer to as a “wide bar.”

A wide bar, especially when combined with ultra-high volume, is a critical signal. It indicates substantial market activity and demands our close attention.

Real-Time Trading and Credibility

I want to emphasize that my analysis was not done in hindsight.

This call was made live, in front of traders who were actively trading with live money.

It’s important to understand that hindsight analysis is easy; the real credibility comes from making these calls in real-time.

I trade daily, applying the skills and knowledge I’ve developed over years of market experience.

My journey has included mastering both the technical and psychological aspects of trading, and I’ve helped many others overcome their trading hurdles.

Discipline and Consistency: The Trader’s Edge

Trading successfully requires discipline and consistency.

It’s all about understanding probabilities and having a solid trade plan, which includes effective risk management.

When your trade plan and market analysis align, you must be ready to place your trades confidently and without hesitation.

The Technical Breakdown

Now, let’s break down today’s market action.

After the initial 8:30 AM spike, we started to consolidate.

I highlighted that if we couldn’t close above the high of the 8:30 AM candle, we were likely to see a rollover, potentially leading to a market sell-off.

This level was crucial, and failing to close above it indicated weakness.

I identified another critical support level at 5366.25. If the market closed below this level, it would confirm the rollover, leading to a further decline and a more pronounced market sell-off.

The Importance of Risk Management

I always advocate for paying yourself and protecting yourself.

As the market moves in your favor, take profits and adjust your stops to break even.

This ensures that you mitigate risk while maximizing potential gains.

In today’s scenario, the initial risk was 12 ticks from entry to high.

However, the market presented an opportunity to achieve a 30:1 risk-reward ratio, amounting to 366 ticks on the S&P 500.

This demonstrates the potential of understanding the relationship between volume and price action using Hawkeye tools.

The Hawkeye Advantage

Hawkeye tools provide the clues necessary to interpret market conditions.

They help you identify high-probability setups by analyzing volume and price action.

However, it’s essential to apply your own analysis and judgment to make informed trading decisions.

Live Proof of Concept

Again, I want to reiterate, this analysis was offered LIVE, with traders using real money.

This isn’t just theoretical; it’s practical and actionable.

I have traders who can attest to the accuracy and timeliness of these calls.

Expanding the Analysis to Other Indices

We also observed similar patterns in other major indices like the NASDAQ.

At 8:54 AM, the market dynamics were consistent across these indices, providing further validation of the analysis.

Today’s session highlights the importance of understanding volume and price action.

By utilizing Hawkeye Volume Tools, traders can gain a significant edge in the market.

Remember, trading is a business of probabilities, and having a disciplined approach with a solid trade plan and risk management strategy is key to long-term success.

Thank you for joining me today. I hope you found this analysis insightful and beneficial. Stay disciplined, trade wisely, and continue to refine your skills. I’ll see you next time, hopefully with a new market sell-off with outstanding profits!

Capitalizing On A Flip-Flop Of Ultra-High Volume

Capitalizing On A Flip-Flop Of Ultra-High Volume

Anthony Speciale here with Hawkeye Traders, bringing you another live volume interaction analysis. 

Today, I want to walk you through the thought process behind these two trade setups, emphasizing the critical role of context in the market. 

My goal is to help you harness volume and price action as the foundation of your trading strategy. 

Whether you’re building on existing skills or just starting out, this is where it all begins.

The Importance of Live Market Experience

I watch the market live every single day. Why? 

Because true experience and learning come from observing live market conditions. 

It’s easy to look back in hindsight and see patterns, but trading in real time involves emotions and discipline that can’t be replicated any other way.

When I analyze the market live, I do it in front of other traders. 

This adds a layer of accountability and credibility to my work. 

These traders are using their own money, and my real-time analysis helps them make informed decisions based on the evidence the market provides.

Today’s Market Setup

Let’s dive into today’s session. At 7:42 AM Eastern Standard Time, we saw a massive candle with ultra-high buying volume. This was a critical moment. 

We had two possible scenarios: a reversal or follow-through. 

At Hawkeye, we call this a “green bottom” when dealing with buying volume. 

The wide bar was highlighted in magenta, indicating it was significantly larger than previous bars over a calculated period.

Analyzing Key Market Movements

I focus on whether the price closes above or below such significant volume bars. 

We saw the price push back up to the high, fail, and then retest the low, creating a short-term double bottom. 

The middle high of this formation is known as the neckline.

By 8:00 AM, we saw a candle closing above the neckline, suggesting a potential push towards the previous high before the aggressive selling. 

This movement offered about 47-48 ticks, a respectable trade opportunity.

Capitalizing On A Flip-Flop Of Ultra-High Volume
market live

Managing the Trade

As the price continued to move, I was closely watching for a close below the double bottom, which occurred with strong selling volume. 

This was a critical signal. It indicated a potential for the market to fall further, aligning with our expectations based on the volume and price action observed.

My analysis predicted specific profit targets to the downside:

  • 56 ticks into 2400
  • 110 ticks into 2394.5
  • 135 ticks into 2392
  • 177 ticks into 2388

The Power of Volume and Price Action

This trade setup illustrates how volume and price action create a story that traders need to read, interpret, and act upon. 

Understanding the relationship between high buying and selling volumes is crucial. 

When ultra-high buying volume meets resistance, it takes equally high selling volume to break through those levels.

Hawkeye’s software simplifies this analysis.

It color-codes the bars and volume spikes, highlighting areas of significant activity. 

This visual representation helps traders quickly understand who is in control – buyers or sellers – and make informed decisions.

Consistent, Predictable Trading

The key to successful trading is consistency and discipline. 

By employing a well-defined trade plan and risk management approach, traders can take advantage of predictable market movements. 

The goal is not to play in uncertain, “junk” areas of the market but to focus on clear, high-probability setups.

Learn and Master Your Trading

To help you master these techniques, we offer Hawkeye’s volume and price action tools along with comprehensive training resources. 

This combination will enable you to understand and apply these principles in real-time market conditions.

Selling Volume Sets The Stage – Buying Volume Confirms

Market reversal

Hello, traders! Anthony Speciale here with Hawkeye Traders. I hope you’re having a fantastic day. Today, I want to take you through my recent analysis of the S&P 500, focusing on a significant market reversal. While I didn’t pinpoint the exact low, I accurately identified a crucial level that the market respected, leading to a robust reversal. Let’s dive into the price action and volume dynamics to understand this better.

Analyzing Market Reversals

The Predictable and Unpredictable Nature of Markets

Markets can be both predictable and unpredictable. However, by focusing on specific indicators such as volume and price action, we can often identify potential reversal points. This morning, I highlighted an area of interest in the S&P 500 live, sharing my insights with other traders.

The Core of Market Analysis

Volume and price action are the foundation of any effective trading strategy. If your trade plan doesn’t prioritize these elements, you might be experiencing inconsistent results. Let’s break down how I use these indicators in real-time analysis.

Identifying Key Levels Using Hawkeye Volume Analysis

This morning, I focused on the 9:00 AM candle, which showed very high selling volume, the highest since the Globex open. Despite the heavy selling, the market did not follow through but instead reversed. This suggested a potential low point.

Here’s a step-by-step breakdown:

  • Ultra-High Selling Volume: The 9:00 AM candle printed with substantial volume, indicating significant selling pressure.
  • Rejection at Yesterday’s Low: This selling pressure brought us to the previous day’s low, a critical level where strong rejection occurred.
  • No Follow-Through: Despite the high volume, there was no immediate continuation of the downtrend, hinting at a potential reversal.

Real-Time Reversal And Market Response

During the live session, I pointed out this critical area to fellow traders. As expected, the market reversed from this low.

Here’s the detailed action:

  • Initial Reversal: After hitting the previous day’s low on high volume, the market reversed.
  • Confirmation with Buying Volume: The 9:30 AM US open saw a surge in buying volume, confirming the reversal.
  • Targeting Immediate Highs: I identified immediate highs as potential targets, using basic price action analysis to set these levels.

Practical Application – How To Use Hawkeye Volume Analysis

By understanding the relationship between volume and price action, you can make more informed trading decisions.

Here’s how you can apply this:

  • Identify High-Volume Areas: Look for candles with significant volume, especially at key support or resistance levels.
  • Analyze Follow-Through: Determine if the market continues in the direction suggested by the volume spike or if it reverses.
  • Set Targets and Manage Risk: Use price action to set realistic targets and manage your risk effectively.

Building a Consistent Trading Strategy

Understanding and utilizing volume and price action is crucial for consistent trading success. This approach works across various market conditions and helps in identifying both opportunities and potential risks.

Mastering Market Highs and Lows LIVE with Hawkeye Volume

Hey Trader! Today, I want to share an insightful analysis on how to effectively nail the highs and lows in the market, focusing specifically on crude oil and gold.

Crude Oil: Identifying the High

Chart Setup

  • Instrument: Light Sweet Crude Oil
  • Timeframe: 3-minute chart

Key Observations

  • Aggressive Sell-off: We identified a significant low at the 78.80 level where the market failed to push lower despite high volume.

Anthony Speciale here with Hawkeye TradersToday, we’re diving into Quest Diagnostics Inc. (DGX), examining its current breakout, the preceding price action, and volume.

By dissecting these elements, we’ll explore why there’s potential for this stock to move higher. As always, a thorough analysis considers both opportunities and risks to make well-informed trading decisions.

The Importance of Price Action and Volume

In any trading strategy—whether intraday, swing, or position trading—understanding the interplay between volume and price action is crucial.

By combining these elements with market context and risk assessment, traders can make more educated decisions and improve their trading outcomes.

Let’s break down how these components come together using DGX as our case study.

Daily Chart Analysis

The chart we’re analyzing is a daily chart, where each candle represents one full day’s trading from 9:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. EST on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE).

Each candle shows the high, low, open, and close prices within this period.

A Detailed Analysis of Quest Diagnostics, Inc. (DGX)
DGX

Key Observations on DGX

Ultra High Volume Candle:

  • We identified a specific candle with ultra high volume. This candle followed a period of aggressive selling, indicating a significant buying interest that pushed prices up.
  • The price pushed into prior resistance levels but was initially rejected, a critical point to consider for potential future movements.

Support and Resistance Levels:

  • After the aggressive buying, the price pulled back into a support level, which was previously a resistance level.
  • Despite testing this support, the price did not close below the high-volume candle, indicating that buyers were still active.

Volume and Price Relationship:

  • The initial rejection at resistance and subsequent support hold suggest strong buying interest.
  • A critical observation is that the price closed above the high-volume candle after a brief consolidation, indicating a potential breakout.

Market Context and Risk Assessment

When analyzing a potential trade, always consider the broader market context and assess the risks. Here’s how we do it for DGX:

Price Action and Market Context:

  • The price action shows higher lows and higher highs, indicating a strong uptrend.
  • Each pullback into support levels held firm, and subsequent moves higher were on increased volume.

Potential Upside and Profit Targets:

  • Identify key resistance levels where the price might face challenges. For DGX, these levels are around $148.50, $150.20, $154.40, $156.20, and $158.30.
  • If the price can push through these levels, we could see it test the highs around $175.

Risk Management:

  • Always define your risk levels. For DGX, consider the possibility of price snagging at previous highs. If the price fails to push past these levels, be prepared to take profits or manage your position accordingly.

Practical Trading Insights

Volume Confirmation:

  • A breakout or breakdown should be accompanied by increased volume to confirm the move’s validity.
  • Weak volume during these moves may signal a lack of conviction, increasing the risk of a false breakout.

Using Hawkeye Tools:

  • Our proprietary Hawkeye Volume Indicators helps interpret volume and price action, identifying who’s in control of the market.
  • The tools display volume in a way that’s easy to understand, highlighting buying and selling pressures.

Strategy Implementation:

  • Align your trade plan with volume, price action, and market context for consistent results.
  • Assess each trade based on its alignment with your criteria and risk management rules.

Quest Diagnostics (DGX) demonstrates a textbook example of how to analyze price action and volume to make informed trading decisions.

By understanding the relationship between these elements and considering market context, you can identify high-probability trading opportunities.

If you’re looking to enhance your trading strategy with volume and price action analysis, consider using tools like the ones offered by Hawkeye Traders. Our mastery class and indicators provide a comprehensive approach to interpreting market movements.

[PLUG] Plug Power Inc.: LIVE Trade Case Study

[PLUG] Plug Power Inc.: LIVE Trade Case Study

Welcome, traders! Anthony Speciale here with Hawkeye Traders and Big Energy Profits.

Today, I’m excited to take you through a live trade case study on Plug Power Incorporated (PLUG), demonstrating the powerful impact of using Hawkeye Volume and Price Action Methodology. This case study highlights the strategic analysis and disciplined execution that led to significant profits. Let’s dive in!

Analyzing the Setup

Our focus is on Plug Power (PLUG), traded on the NASDAQ. We’re examining a daily chart, meaning each candle represents a full day’s worth of price movement. The chart revealed a crucial period of indecision, with a mix of buying and selling volumes over several days. This indecision indicated that buyers and sellers were battling for control.

Spotting the Breakout

After seven days of consolidation, we observed a strong selling volume accompanied by an aggressive downside candle. This significant move indicated that sellers had gained control, creating an area of supply or resistance.

When the price returned to this supply zone, it was met with mixed volume over five days, reinforcing the supply level. Anticipating that sellers would step in again, we issued a trade alert on October 13, 2023.

Executing the Trade

The short trade was placed on October 16, 2023. Here’s a breakdown of the trade setup:

  • Entry Point: $7.35 or higher
  • Stop Loss: $7.95 (8.2% risk)
  • First Target: $6.25 (14.95% reward)
  • Second Target: $4.50 (initially 38.83% reward, but realized 49.5% due to a gap)
  • Third Target: $2.00 (potential 73% reward)

This setup provided a favorable risk-to-reward ratio, emphasizing the importance of risk management. By keeping risk at 10% or less of the position size, traders can withstand multiple losses without depleting their accounts.

[PLUG] Plug Power Inc.: LIVE Trade Case Study
PLUG Trade

Realized Gains and Risk Management

Our strategy emphasized taking profits at predefined targets:

  • First Target: Upon reaching the first target, we took profits and moved the stop loss to the entry point, ensuring a risk-free trade on the remaining position.
  • Second Target: The market gapped below the second target, allowing us to lock in a 49.5% gain instead of the initial 38.83%.

By systematically taking profits and adjusting the stop loss, we protected our gains and positioned ourselves for further profits without additional risk. The trade remains active, with a final target at $2.00, offering a potential 73% gain.

The Power of Volume and Price Action

This case study underscores the effectiveness of Hawkeye Volume and Price Action Methodology. Understanding the relationship between volume and price action is crucial for identifying high-probability trades. Here are key takeaways:

  • Volume Analysis: Mixed volumes during consolidation indicate indecision, while strong selling or buying volumes signal control.
  • Risk Management: Keeping risk below 10% of the position size and using a stop loss ensures protection against significant losses.
  • Profit Taking: Systematically taking profits at predefined targets and adjusting stop losses locks in gains and reduces risk.

Trading is a business of probabilities. By combining volume and price action analysis with disciplined risk management, you can enhance your trading edge.

This approach doesn’t guarantee winning every trade, but it significantly increases the likelihood of success over time.  Access Hawkeye Volume Mastery Today!

[XOM] Exxon Mobil Corporation: LIVE Trade Case Study

Welcome, fellow traders, to an insightful exploration of a real trade executed within my Big Energy Profits service, utilizing the powerful Hawkeye Volume Driven Tools.

Today, I’ll break down the specifics of this trade, share the techniques and analysis methods I use, and demonstrate how volume has been crucial in sustaining and potentially amplifying our returns.

The Trade Breakdown

Let’s dive into the specifics of this trade on XOM. We identified a promising entry point at $103.75 with a stop-loss set at $100.00, risking less than 4%. This cautious approach aligns with my trading philosophy: small risks with substantial upside potential.

XOM
From this entry, we saw a strong upward movement, hitting our initial targets at $109, $112, and $118. The key to staying in this trade, even as it pulled back, has been understanding the interplay of volume and price action.

Hawkeye’s Volume Driven Tools have been instrumental in this analysis.

Volume and Price Action: The Keys to Trading Success

Volume is the heartbeat of the market. It provides insights into the strength and validity of price movements. In our trade, even as prices pulled back, the selling volume failed to break through significant support levels.

This consistent inability to close below support, despite increased selling volume, indicated that sellers were being absorbed and buyers were stepping in.

This understanding kept us in the trade, allowing us to ride the upward momentum.

By focusing on these volume cues, we identified that the market was likely to test higher levels, potentially revisiting $121 and $123, with potential to continue upward.

The Simplicity of Effective Trading

The charts I use are straightforward. Aside from my annotations, the core elements are volume and price action.

These two factors alone provide a comprehensive view of market dynamics.

While many traders clutter their screens with numerous indicators, it’s essential to recognize that these indicators are lagging, and reflect what has already happened.

Volume and Price Action, however, are LEADING INDICATORS.

They offer predictive power by showing the underlying market sentiment and potential future movements. Understanding this relationship is crucial for any trader aiming to achieve consistent profitability.

Lessons Learned and Moving Forward

In trading, not every expectation will play out perfectly. However, having a robust trade plan and a solid understanding of volume and price action allows for profitable adjustments even when the market deviates from initial predictions.

In our case, the stars aligned for this trade and BIG PROFITS were achieved, by simply adhering to our strategy and managing risks effectively.

Why Volume-Based Trading?

Volume-based trading provides a significant edge in the market. It’s about recognizing the flow of orders and understanding market context. By focusing on these elements, traders can make informed decisions, minimize risks, and maximize returns.

If you’re serious about advancing your trading skills, I invite you to explore more about Hawkeye’s Volume Driven Tools and my Big Energy Profits service.

Whether you’re new to trading or have years of experience, enhancing your understanding of volume and price action will be a game-changer.

Learn from a 300+ Tick Gold Rush Identified LIVE

Learn from a 300+ Tick Gold Rush Identified LIVE

Hey Trader,

When it comes to trading, hindsight is always 20/20. However, the real credibility lies in identifying opportunities as the market ticks. 

Analyzing market movements live and leveraging this analysis to make informed decisions is what sets successful traders apart. 

It’s easy to look back and say, “I could have made this trade,” but the challenge is to recognize and act on these opportunities in real time.

Successful trading is not about looking back at what could have been done. 

It’s about recognizing opportunities as they unfold and making strategic decisions in real time. This is where live market analysis becomes invaluable. 

Experienced traders navigate the market live, interpreting price action and volume,which  can provide insights that are difficult to grasp through static, post-mortem analysis.

In a recent live session, we analyzed gold futures using a three-minute chart. 

This timeframe, though brief, can reveal significant trading opportunities if interpreted correctly. During this session, I pinpointed an area of interest in real-time, explaining the analysis process that led to a high-probability trade setup. 

The key was understanding the relationship between volume and price action, which allowed us to anticipate a potential move higher.

Initially, the market was in a period of congestion or consolidation, a phase where indecision prevails, and price moves within a narrow range. These periods are crucial because they often precede significant market moves. 

Here’s what we observed:

  1. Exit from Congestion: The market broke out of the congestion zone, signaling a potential trend.
  2. Consolidation: Post-breakout, we noticed a series of candles moving sideways, indicating a pause before the next move.

One candle, in particular, caught our attention:

  • High Buying Volume: Despite the high buying volume, the price didn’t move significantly, suggesting absorption by sellers.
  • Ultra-High Selling Volume: The next candle had ultra-high selling volume, but the price closed higher than it opened. This divergence indicated that sellers were being absorbed, and buyers were stepping in.

Divergences between volume and price often signal an impending move. 

In this case, the high selling volume without a corresponding price drop suggested that the sellers were exhausted, and buyers were ready to push the price higher. 

With this divergence in mind, we identified a high-probability, low-risk entry point:

  • Entry Point: We entered a long position above the consolidation zone.
  • Risk Management: Placed a stop loss a few ticks below the consolidation low, risking approximately 15 ticks.
  • Profit Target: The market moved significantly in our favor, offering a profit potential of up to 306 ticks.

Even if you didn’t catch the absolute top, holding the position until the closing bell could have easily yielded 240 ticks. The key takeaway is to avoid greed and take profits as the market moves in your favor.

This case study underscores the importance of understanding volume and price action. 

These tools are crucial for identifying high-probability trade setups. Whether you’re trading intraday on a three-minute chart or longer-term, the principles remain the same.

Are you willing to invest the time and effort to master volume and price action analysis? 

The rewards are substantial, but it requires dedication and practice. These opportunities exist across all timeframes and market conditions. By honing your skills, you can unlock significant profit potential and enhance your trading success.

A Deep Dive into the Euro FX Futures Market

A Deep Dive into the Euro FX Futures Market

Anthony Speciale here with Hawkeye Traders, ready to dissect the Euro FX Futures market. Today, we’re focusing on understanding the significance of ultra-high volume and how it impacts market movements.

This insight can dramatically enhance your trading strategies, so let’s dive in!

The Power of Ultra-High Volume

In today’s analysis, we’re looking at a 3-minute chart of the Euro FX Futures market, starting with the 7:30 a.m. candle.

This specific candle, marked with ultra-high selling volume, closed around the 50% mark of its overall move.

What does this tell us? It indicates strong seller activity being absorbed by buyers, signaling potential market resistance.

Identifying Key Levels

I drew a line at the bottom of this wick to observe if sellers could push below.

Consistently, the market tested this level but failed to break it, confirming the presence of strong buyers.

This pattern suggests a higher probability of the market moving back to previous highs.

Understanding Reversals

Ultra-high volume can indicate a reversal, especially when combined with specific candle formations.

For example, a candle with a large wick on top and a close lower than the open signals strong seller control.

This forms a resistance level, guiding our future trading decisions.

Volume and Price Action Integration

Recognizing how volume and price action interact is crucial.

High volume with significant wicks, especially at key levels, provides valuable insights.

For instance, when sellers fail to push the market lower, it often results in a price reversal back to its previous levels.

Using Hawkeye Volume Indicators

Hawkeye makes analyzing volume and price action straightforward with our proprietary indicators.

Our Hawkeye Volume Tools, available on platforms like TradeStation, TradingView, NinjaTrader, and MetaTrader, include:

  • Volume Radar: Identifies high, ultra-high, and ultra-low volume periods.
  • Volume Paint Bars: Colors bars according to volume control, aiding quick visual analysis.
  • Wide Bars: Highlights significant bars with high volume and large wicks, crucial for identifying key market movements.

Applying Knowledge in Real Trading

To effectively employ these insights, it’s essential to invest time in understanding how high-volume price action pairs work.

Our Hawkeye Mastery Library provides comprehensive explanations, ensuring you can easily integrate these techniques into your trading.

By recognizing patterns such as ultra-high selling volume with failure to close below key levels, you can anticipate short-term reversals and adjust your strategies accordingly.

Conversely, identifying resistance levels formed by significant wicks and high volume can help you avoid potential pitfalls.

Trading successfully requires a deep understanding of volume and price action.

Let Volume Lead the Way in Your Trading Journey

Let Volume Lead the Way in Your Trading Journey

Today, I want to dive deep into a concept that can revolutionize your trading approach: letting volume lead the way.

This isn’t just a theory—it’s a practice that I apply live and in real-time, resulting in profitable trades.

If you’re ready to enhance your trading career, understanding the relationship between volume and price action is crucial.

WHY Volume Precedes Price Action

Before we get into the specifics, let’s establish one key principle: volume precedes price action.

This means that significant changes in trading volume often foreshadow price movements.

When you can interpret volume correctly, you gain a significant edge in predicting market behavior.

The Live Scenario Breakdown

Let’s examine a live trading scenario to illustrate this principle in action.

The 7 AM Candle Analysis

At 7:06 AM EST, I noticed an ultra-high buying volume candle. The candle opened at .83 and closed at .87, a narrow four-tick range despite the heavy buying volume.

This discrepancy signaled that buyers were trying to push the price higher, but sellers were absorbing their efforts.

Recognizing Absorption and Market Direction

As the market attempted to move up, it became clear that sellers were absorbing the buying pressure. This absorption suggested that the market, which had been trending downward with lower highs and lower lows, was likely to continue in that direction.

Let Volume Lead the Way in Your Trading Journey

The 8:30 AM Confirmation

By 8:30 AM, the market confirmed this hypothesis.

A new buying candle appeared, but it was only half the size of the previous high-volume candle and managed to close higher.

This indicated that buyers were still being absorbed. The market failed to break above the prior wick, reinforcing my belief that it would push lower.

Executing the Trade

Based on this analysis, I placed a short trade. Here’s the detailed breakdown:

  • Entry Point: After identifying the absorption, I entered short.
  • Risk Management: My total risk was 20 ticks.
  • Profit Targets: The first target was at the prior lows (60 ticks), giving a 3:1 risk-reward ratio. The trade ultimately moved 135 ticks in my favor.

The Power of Hawkeye Volume and Price Action

This trade, which I identified and executed live, was a prime example of how understanding volume and price action can lead to significant profits.

By analyzing these two factors together, you can develop a more accurate thesis about market movements.

Mastering Corn Futures Trading: Using Volume and Price Action for Success

Mastering Corn Futures Trading: Using Volume and Price Action for Success

Hey there, fellow traders! Anthony here, and today I’m excited to dive into the world of corn futures trading. In this video, we’ll explore how we can leverage volume and price action to gain insights into market movements and make informed trading decisions.

At Hawkeye Traders, we’ve developed a unique approach to reversals in the market employing key concepts such as: the “red top” and the “green bottom.”

Let’s delve into how these strategies can empower your trading journey.

In the fast-paced world of futures trading, volume and price action are our guiding lights. Picture this: it’s 9:30 AM EST, the US open, and we witness a massive volatile candle in the corn futures market.

This candle comes with an ultra-high selling volume, indicating significant selling pressure. As the candle closes in the bottom 10-15%, we’re alerted to the potential for a downturn in prices.

Here’s where the “red top” strategy comes into play. We observe the massive wick formed by the candle, signaling a crucial resistance level.

Mastering Corn Futures Trading: Using Volume and Price Action for Success

This area becomes our focal point, indicating a potential area of supply or resistance. After a subsequent close below this level, we witness a retest, confirming our suspicions. This confirmation provides an optimal entry point for short positions.

Now, let’s talk execution. As traders, we have different styles and risk appetites. Some may choose to enter short positions within the wick, aiming to ride the price down swiftly. Others prefer to wait for a breakout confirmation before entering the market.

Regardless of your approach, effective risk management is key. Set your stop-loss orders conservatively, ensuring minimal risk exposure while maximizing profit potential.

At Hawkeye Traders, our mission is to empower traders like you to navigate the markets with confidence. 

Our innovative volume analysis tools, coupled with time-tested strategies, provide a competitive edge in today’s dynamic market environment.

Whether you’re a seasoned trader or just starting, our goal is to equip you with the knowledge and tools needed to succeed.

Mastering corn futures trading requires a keen understanding of volume, price action, and strategic execution.

By incorporating the “red top” and “green bottom” strategies into your trading arsenal, you can gain valuable insights and capitalize on market opportunities.

Platinum Futures: Multiple Timeframe Volume & Price Analysis

Platinum Futures: Multiple Timeframe Volume & Price Analysis

Hey Trader, Anthony Speciale here from Hawkeye Traders, and today I want to delve into a crucial aspect of intraday trading: multiple timeframe volume and price analysis.

This powerful technique, combined with the insights provided by Hawkeye Volume Tools, can give you a significant edge in the markets.

When I’m trading intraday, I don’t just stick to one timeframe. Instead, I analyze multiple timeframes, including the five-minute, three-minute, and even the one-minute chart.

But here’s the kicker: I use higher timeframes like the one-hour and four-hour charts to provide me with valuable insights into potential market movements.

Let’s take a closer look at how this works using an example from Platinum Futures. In this one-hour chart, I’m paying close attention to specific candles and volume patterns to anticipate potential reversals.

One key indicator I look for is Hawkeye’s Ultra-High Volume Radar Dot to appear, especially when it coincides with specific price levels.

For example, if we see a candle with a large wick and ultra-high buying volume, coupled with the failure to settle below a crucial support level, it could signal a potential reversal.

Platinum Futures: Multiple Timeframe Volume & Price Analysis
Multiple timeframe

By zooming out to higher timeframes, such as the one-hour chart, I gain clarity on the broader market sentiment and can better assess potential trade setups.

This allows me to generate a solid thesis and plan my trades with confidence.

But it’s not just about looking at higher timeframes; it’s about understanding the relationship between volume and price action.

By combining these insights, I can identify key support and resistance levels, gauge market sentiment, and anticipate price movements more accurately.

Understanding volume and price action together is invaluable for intraday traders. It provides a clear roadmap for identifying potential trade setups and managing risk.

So, if you’re serious about improving your intraday trading, consider incorporating multiple timeframe analysis into your strategy. Take the time to analyze higher timeframes alongside shorter ones, and watch how it transforms your trading approach.

Predictable Reversal At Key Support Confirmed By Volume

Predictable Reversal At Key Support Confirmed By Volume

Anthony here at Hawkeye Traders, and today I will focus my intake in a reversal case, delving into a topic that’s absolutely crucial for any trader looking to gain an edge in the market: VOLUME. In this case, identifying volume-driven reversal patterns.

In this in-depth special video, we’re going to explore how you can identify key areas in the market that were previously resistance but have now become newly appointed support. 

Not only that, but we’ll also talk about how you can confirm these areas using volume, providing you with foresight into potential market movements.

Now, you might be wondering, “How exactly do we do this?” Well, fear not, because I’m going to break it all down for you step by step.

First things first, let’s strip away any complexity. When it comes to my trading approach, I keep it simple. I focus solely on volume and price action. 

With these two powerful trading tools at my disposal, I’m able to perform my own analysis and craft a thesis around what I believe is happening in the market.

Here’s the thing: while many indicators out there are lagging, meaning they only provide information after the fact, volume and price action offer a glimpse into future market movements before they even happen. 

That’s the kind of foresight every trader dreams of!

Now, if there’s one specific aspect within volume and price action that I urge you to master, it’s identifying reversals. 

Why? Because nailing reversal patterns with accuracy can lead to incredibly profitable trades.

Let’s dive into a real-world example to illustrate this concept. Take a look at Bank of America (ticker: BAC) on a daily chart spanning approximately six months. What do we see? We see a trend line with multiple touches, indicating significant support.

Predictable Reversal At Key Support Confirmed By Volume
Reversals

But here’s where it gets interesting. Pay close attention to a specific candle marked by ultra-high selling volume. Despite the heavy selling pressure, price pulled back into two critical areas: the lower channel line and previously resistance-now-support levels.

What happened next? Price didn’t plummet as many expected. Instead, it showed resilience, closing well above the lows of the candle. This lack of follow-through on the downside, coupled with absorption of selling volume, signaled a near-perfect reversal.

The result? A rapid ascent back into the upward channel structure, yielding significant gains for savvy traders who recognized the opportunity.

So, why is mastering volume and price action so vital? Because it empowers you to enter trades with the lowest risk and the highest probability of success. 

Whether you’re day trading, swing trading, or position trading, this strategy and our Hawkeye Volume Tools applicable across various timeframes.

Mastering Hawkeye Wide Bar Trading Strategies

Mastering Hawkeye Wide Bar Trading Strategies

Anthony here from Hawkeye Traders, ready to dive deep into the world of wide bar trading strategies. If you’re looking to elevate your trading game and maximize your profits, you’re in the right place.

In this comprehensive guide, I’ll walk you through the power of wide bars and how pairing them with high volume surges can unlock lucrative opportunities in the market. So, grab your favorite trading beverage, sit back, and let’s get started.

Understanding Wide Bars and Volume Surges

Wide bars, those eye-catching purple giants on your chart, often signal significant shifts in market sentiment. Paired with high volume surges, they become even more potent indicators of potential reversals or continuation patterns.

In our proprietary volume software at Hawkeye, we’ve fine-tuned our analysis to pinpoint these wide bars and identify the volume behind them. This allows us to gauge who’s in control of the market and anticipate the next move with precision.

Navigating Economic News Events

Economic news releases can send shockwaves through the market, creating opportunities for savvy traders. However, it’s crucial to approach these events with caution and patience.

I always advise my traders to step back before major news hits, allowing the initial frenzy to settle. Then, we analyze the volume and price action to uncover hidden gems amidst the chaos.

Volume is your Compass to Navigating the Markets

Spotting Reversal Opportunities

When faced with a wide bar and ultra-high volume, it’s essential to assess the context and look for clues of absorption or exhaustion. Neutral volume following a wide bar often signals a potential reversal, as buyers or sellers reach their limits.

By patiently waiting for price action to confirm our suspicions, we position ourselves for optimal entry points with minimal risk. Remember, preservation of capital is paramount, and disciplined risk management is key to long-term success.

Mastering Hawkeye Wide Bar Trading Strategies

Executing with Precision

Executing a trade requires a delicate balance of analysis and restraint. It’s tempting to chase after every opportunity, but true mastery lies in patience and precision.

Whether you’re longing for a breakout or shorting a reversal, wait for the perfect setup to present itself. Trust your analysis, stick to your trade plan, and never let emotions cloud your judgment.

Add the Hawkeye Wide Bar to your Trading Arsenal

The Power of Patience and Discipline

In the fast-paced world of retail trading, it’s easy to get caught up in the excitement and rush of the market. However, true success comes from a calm and calculated approach.

By mastering wide bar trading strategies and harnessing the insights provided by volume analysis, you can navigate the markets with confidence and clarity. 

Remember, it’s not about hitting home runs every time—it’s about stacking those base hits and growing your account steadily over time.

So, the next time you spot a wide bar on your chart, take a moment to pause, analyze, and execute with precision. With the right mindset and strategy, you can achieve your trading goals and build a sustainable path to success.

Hawkeye Volume and Price Action Confirms Break of Range

Hawkeye Volume and Price Action Confirms Break of Range

Anthony here with another insightful discussion on mastering the art of trading by understanding volume and price action.

Whether you’re a seasoned trader or just starting out, grasping this crucial relationship can elevate your trading game to new heights.

Let’s delve into an actual trade setup I had executed and how Hawkeye Volume played a pivotal role in my decision-making process.

First and foremost, it’s essential to recognize that volume can provide valuable insights into market dynamics, regardless of your trading style—be it pullback, breakout, correction, double top, or double bottom trading.

When eyeing a potential trade setup, but before you .dive in, take a step back and assess the volume-price relationship. By pairing volume with price action, you gain a deeper understanding of current market conditions and potential future movements.

Now, I know it’s tempting to clutter your charts with numerous indicators in search of the perfect setup. However, I’ve found that simplicity reigns supreme in trading.

Clean, clutter-free charts with a focus on price and volume are the way to go. Trust me; less is more when it comes to effective analysis.

Let’s walk through a real-life example—a trade I took in the light sweet crude oil market.

Hawkeye Volume and Price Action Confirms Break of Range
Volume and Price Action

As I identified a double top formation and observed price struggling to break above previous highs, followed by a retest of the session low which confirmed ranging.

A surge in selling volume followed by a lack of immediate follow-through caught my eye on the first attempt to break through the session lows.

Interpreting volume alongside price action allowed me to anticipate a potential pullback. 

Instead of chasing after the initial breakdown, I patiently waited for confirmation, ensuring a low-risk, high-probability trade entry.

By understanding the nuances of volume and price action, I pinpointed key levels of support and resistance, guiding my entry and exit points with precision. And guess what? The trade played out exactly as anticipated, delivering profitable results.

Now, you might be wondering, “How can I apply this methodology to my own trading?

Well, it’s simpler than you think!

With the Hawkeye method, you gain access to powerful tools that visualize volume and price action dynamics, making it easier to identify optimal trade setups.

Whether you’re day trading, swing trading, or investing in stocks, futures, forex, or cryptocurrencies, the principles of volume and price action remain consistent.

Identifying Support and Resistance Incorporating Volume Analysis

Identifying Support and Resistance Incorporating Volume Analysis

Welcome, fellow traders! Today, we’re delving deep into the crucial aspects of identifying support and resistance through the lens of price action and volume analysis. 

Understanding these dynamics is paramount for any trader looking to navigate the markets with confidence and precision. So, let’s embark on this journey together and uncover the hidden secrets that can elevate your trading game to new heights.

In the world of trading, having a keen sense of market context is akin to possessing a treasure map. It guides us through the labyrinth of price movements and helps us anticipate potential shifts in supply and demand. 

As I demonstrated live this morning, our journey began with a careful examination of candlestick patterns and volume dynamics. 

By identifying key areas of high volume and discerning the lack of follow-through, we laid the groundwork for our analysis.

The cornerstone of our strategy lies in pinpointing areas of support and resistance, also known as supply and demand zones by incorporating Hawkeye Volume Analysis. 

These zones act as battlegrounds where buyers and sellers wage their wars, leaving behind valuable clues for astute traders. 

Through meticulous observation of price action and volume, we identified significant turning points in the market. 

Whether it was the rejection of higher prices or the emergence of strong buying pressure, each candle told a story of market sentiment and potential reversals.

One of the most rewarding aspects of trading is capturing trend reversals before they unfold. By honing our ability to read the signs of impending shifts in momentum, we position ourselves for lucrative opportunities. 

As I illustrated with real-time examples, our analysis allowed us to anticipate reversals with remarkable accuracy. 

From identifying lower highs to recognizing signs of exhaustion in selling pressure, every observation paved the way for strategic decision-making.

Trading isn’t just about identifying entry points; it’s also about managing risk and maximizing profit potential. 

Through disciplined risk management techniques, we ensure that our trades offer attractive risk-to-reward ratios. 

As I showcased in today’s session, our approach allowed us to capture significant profit opportunities while minimizing downside risk. 

By adhering to strict risk parameters and capitalizing on high-probability setups, we create a recipe for consistent success in the markets.

At the heart of our trading philosophy lies a deep appreciation for Hawkeye Volume and Price Action Tools. These pillars provide us with invaluable insights into market dynamics, allowing us to stay one step ahead of the crowd. 

As I emphasized throughout the session, cluttering our charts with unnecessary indicators only obscures the true story unfolding before us. By keeping our analysis simple and focused, we gain clarity and confidence in our trading decisions.

Mastering the art of identifying support and resistance requires a keen understanding of volume and price action. By learning to decipher market context and spot key turning points, we empower ourselves to trade with precision and foresight. 

As demonstrated in today’s session, the ability to read the language of the market can lead to lucrative opportunities and consistent profits.

Market Context, Price Action and Volume – That’s ALL You Need

Market Context, Price Action and Volume - That's ALL You Need

Welcome back, traders! In this insightful discussion, we’re diving deep into the world of price action and volume surges and unraveling the mysteries of how they impact the market. 

Whether you’re a seasoned trader or just starting out, understanding volume surges can provide you with invaluable insights to make informed trading decisions. 

So, let’s embark on this journey together and discover how you can harness the power of volume to enhance your trading strategies.

Volume surges are like whispers from the market, revealing hidden truths about price movements and market sentiment. 

As Anthony from Hawkeye Traders eloquently explains, these surges can occur at various points in the market – highs, lows, or even amidst a trend. 

But what do they signify, and how can you interpret them effectively?

Context is Key: Anthony emphasizes the importance of understanding market context. It’s not just about the volume bars or candlestick patterns; it’s about comprehending the story that the market is telling you. By analyzing the broader picture, including price action and prevailing trends, you can gain valuable insights into the underlying dynamics driving the market.

Intraday Analysis: Anthony provides a real-time analysis of overnight trading sessions, shedding light on how traders can capitalize on volume surges during non-standard market hours. Whether you’re trading before or after your day job, understanding volume dynamics can help you navigate these sessions with confidence and precision.

Identifying Market Reversals: One of the most compelling aspects of volume surges is their ability to signal potential market reversals. Anthony illustrates this concept with examples of price action at key resistance and support levels. By observing how volume interacts with these levels, traders can anticipate trend reversals and adjust their strategies accordingly.

The Psychology of Buyers and Sellers: At its core, trading is a battle between buyers and sellers. Volume surges offer valuable insights into the psychology of market participants. Anthony delves into the nuances of interpreting buying and selling pressure, highlighting how shifts in volume can reveal the underlying intentions of traders. 

Simplicity in Complexity: In a cluttered world of trading indicators and tools, Anthony advocates for simplicity. By focusing on the essentials – price action and volume – traders can cut through the noise and develop a clearer understanding of market dynamics. Less is indeed more when it comes to effective trading analysis.

As Anthony eloquently demonstrates, mastering volume surges is not just about crunching numbers or following complex algorithms. It’s about deciphering the language of the market and understanding the subtle cues that drive price movements. 

Whether you’re a novice trader or a seasoned veteran, integrating volume analysis into your trading toolkit can elevate your performance to new heights.

Nailing (2) GOLD Volume Climax Reversals LIVE

Nailing (2) GOLD Volume Climax Reversals LIVE

Anthony here from Hawkeye Traders, and I’ve got something special to share with you today. In this video, I’m going to walk you through how you could have absolutely dominated the gold market, based on volume.

Guess what? It’s NOT hindsight—it’s real-time analysis, right before your eyes.

So, what’s the secret sauce? It all comes down to one simple yet powerful principle: pairing volume and price action using the Hawkeye tools. That’s right—no clutter, no unnecessary indicators, just pure, unadulterated data that actually matters.

Let’s break it down step by step. Picture this: a double top forms early in the morning, setting the stage for a potential sell-off. But here’s where it gets interesting.

Nailing (2) GOLD Volume Climax Reversals LIVE
Volume

By analyzing the volume alongside price action, I identified a critical volume climax that signaled an imminent pullback. And guess what? That’s exactly what happened.

Price respected prior resistance, now turned support, delivering a tidy profit of 60 ticks.

But wait, there’s more. Just when you thought it couldn’t get any better, gold makes another grand gesture attempt to go higher.

And once again, we spot an ultra-high buying volume, hinting at a potential reversal.

With surgical precision, we enter the trade, targeting the same support level as before. And wouldn’t you know it? Another 90 ticks in the bag, bringing our total profit potential to a whopping 150 ticks.

Now, here’s the kicker. We only risked 20 ticks on each trade. That’s right—150 ticks of profit with just a total of 40 ticks of risk. Talk about a stellar risk-reward ratio!

But here’s the real takeaway: trading isn’t about chasing every little nuance in the market. It’s about waiting for the highest quality setups and executing them with confidence. And that’s exactly what the Hawkeye Volume Tools empower you to do.

By focusing on volume and price action, you cut through the noise and zero in on the most lucrative opportunities. No guesswork, no second-guessing—just pure, raw, data-driven precision analysis.

So, if you’re ready to take your trading to the next level, I invite you to explore the Hawkeye tools and educational resources. Whether you’re a seasoned pro or just starting out, we’re here to help you navigate the markets with confidence and clarity.

Thanks for watching, and until next time, may the markets trend in your favor!

Deciphering Apple’s Massive Gap

Deciphering Apple's Massive Gap

In today’s market analysis, we’re diving deep into the whirlwind of events surrounding Apple’s recent earnings report. Anthony Speo here, your guide through the twists and turns of market volatility.

So, what’s the buzz all about?

Well, Apple made headlines with a colossal gap up following its earnings report, sending shockwaves through the trading community. 

But what does this mean for retail traders like us? Let’s break it down:

First off, let’s talk numbers. Apple’s gap up was undeniably impressive, but what caught our attention was where it gapped to—a prior daily gap that had yet to be filled.

Now, that’s not your run-of-the-mill move. We’re talking about a gap that barely saw 35 cents of follow-through from its opening price to its daily high. That’s a red flag waving in the wind, signaling potential weakness in Apple’s upward momentum.

But wait, there’s more. Amidst the flurry of activity, we witnessed something truly remarkable—the largest peak in volume year-to-date.

Now, you might be thinking, “Volume? What’s the big deal?”

Well, my friend, volume is the heartbeat of the market. It tells us the story of buyers and sellers battling it out for supremacy.

And here’s the kicker: despite the surge in volume, Apple’s price action left much to be desired. The closing price fell significantly lower than its initial spike, hinting at underlying weakness beneath the surface.

Deciphering Apple's Massive Gap

So, where does this leave us as traders?

Well, Anthony’s keen insights shed light on the path ahead. While Apple’s gap up may have grabbed headlines, it also presents a unique opportunity for astute traders.

By understanding the nuances of volume and price action, you can decipher the market’s hidden clues and make informed decisions.

Now, let’s talk about strategy. Whether Apple continues its ascent or faces a pullback, one thing remains clear: volume and price action should be our guiding stars.

Forget fancy indicators and complex algorithms—success in trading boils down to mastering these fundamental principles.

As Anthony rightly emphasizes, a strong foundation in volume and price action is the bedrock of any successful trading plan and the very thing we can help you master! 

So, whether you’re a seasoned pro or just starting out, remember this: the key to trading success lies in understanding the language of the market.

Apple’s massive gap may have turned heads, but it’s our interpretation of VOLUME and PRICE ACTION that sets us apart at Hawkeye Traders.

Mastering Multiple Timeframe Volume Analysis

Mastering Multiple Timeframe Volume Analysis

Hey Trader, in this video we delve into the depths of multiple timeframe volume analysis. We’ll further explore the significance of volume confluence across different timeframes and how it can revolutionize your trading strategy.

Understanding Volume Confluence

At Hawkeye Traders, we emphasize the importance of looking at the bigger picture when analyzing volume. 

It’s not just about a single day of ultra-high buying or selling volume; it’s about zooming out and examining the broader trends over weeks and months. 

By doing so, we gain invaluable insights into market dynamics, identifying key areas of support and resistance that can shape our trading decisions.

The Power of Weekly Analysis

Let’s start our journey by examining a weekly chart of Nvidia (ticker: NVDA). 

Each candle represents a week’s worth of trading activity, providing a panoramic view of market movements. 

As we analyze high-volume areas, such as significant selling points, we uncover valuable insights into price behavior. 

For example, identifying a candle with ultra-high selling volume that acts as resistance for several months can signal a potential reversal or continuation pattern.

Mastering Multiple Timeframe Volume Analysis

Zooming into Daily Charts

Transitioning to daily charts, we narrow our focus to individual trading sessions, seeking confirmation of our weekly analysis. 

By pinpointing days with significant volume spikes, we can gauge market sentiment and anticipate price movements. For instance, observing decreased buying volume amidst multiple attempts to overcome a resistance level hints at impending bearish pressure. 

Such insights empower traders to execute high-probability trades with confidence, leveraging options or other instruments for lucrative returns.

Applying Low-Risk Trade Strategies

One of the key benefits of multiple timeframe volume analysis is its ability to identify low-risk trade setups. 

By aligning entry and exit points with volume signals, traders can minimize risk while maximizing potential profits. 

For example, entering a short position based on a failed breakout candle with decreased buying volume offers a favorable risk-reward ratio. 

Targeting recent lows as potential profit-taking levels further enhances the trade’s viability, ensuring a disciplined approach to risk management.

Leveraging Hawkeye Tools

Central to our trading methodology are the Hawkeye tools, meticulously designed to streamline volume and price action analysis for you.

Volume Reversal: Trading Essentials You Can’t Afford to Be Without

When combined with volume analysis, price action becomes even more powerful, offering traders a comprehensive view of market activity.

Soybeans are Strong.

In today’s update, I follow-up on a previous video where I showed a potential bullish build in soybeans, corn, and copper. As one Hawkeye client put it, “Randy, it looks like your Soybeans are all systems go”. Yes, soybeans are strong, and I show you my analysis in today’s video.

From the charts

The daily soybean (@S) chart shows a nice “double-dot” Hawkeye Roadkill signal, confirming alignment of the longer term and shorter term charts. This alignment usually provides a high probability entry point. For soybeans, that was right around $865. Volume and momentum are supporting this bullish break, so it looks good for a move up to the $898 area, if we can get a confirmed close above $877.5.

Corn (@C) continues to show bullishness as well, with a confirmed “double-dot” entry around $329. This continues to build strength and is currently in consolidation. But a break above $335 will confirm the strength, with an initial upside target around the $344 area.

Finally don’t forget about Copper (@HG), which is a good indicator of our economy. It continues a very nice bullish trend, with nice volume and momentum support. Keep an eye on the Agricultural ETF DBA. It is in a longterm downtrend, but is just showing signs of bottoming, and potential reversal (volume).

The Hawkeye Perspective

Knowing how to read charts is one thing… but knowing how to profit from them is another. Hawkeye provides a suite of tools that show you definitive entry and exit points in any market and any timeframe.

WTI Light Sweet Crude Oil Futures Analysis

July – CLN20 Contract

Crude Corner Outlook:

The mid $35.00 – $36.00 price area will likely contain selling pressure into July trading activity. Above which, the $44.00 price area is likely and able to be obtained within several weeks.

Near-Term Bullish Scenario:

The $38.00 price area can contain initial strength, beyond which the mid $40.00 price area is likely and able to contain session strength. Closing above the $40.00 price area indicates the $44.00 price area in several days which sets the stage for the $49.00 price area to follow.

Near-Term Bearish Scenario:

Breaking below the mid $35.00 price area indicates a test of the mid $34.00 price area intraday. Closing below the mid $35.00 price area indicates a June high has already been placed. The mid $31.00 price area then expected by the end of the week and the mid $23.00 price area within several weeks.

A Lot of People Got Hit by This Correction

A lot of people got hit by this correction in the markets last week. In today’s update, I show from a Hawkeye perspective how to see and know when the markets are changing.

A sore subject

I know it’s a sore subject, but it always good to go back over and learn from the charts. Since I love the daily charts, it is my goto for reading the markets. However, the daily S&P e-mini (ES) didn’t show me any clear indication of a market correction. I had to dig down into the hourly chart to really see what was going on.

From the charts

From the hourly chart, I could see a real change in the character of the volume. Beginning Jun 2nd, and going until the correction started, selling volume spikes were predominant over buying spikes. When price finally failed to produce new highs on Jun 10, that was the sign of potential correction.

Then the majority of the correction occurred overnight, with extremely low volume. This is significant, in that, markets USUALLY don’t go down on low volume. This is not normal price action. We didn’t see it on the daily, but it was clear to see on the hourly.

The Hawkeye Perspective

The markets are fickle… they do what they want without the common courtesy of letting us know ahead of time. However, with the right tools (i.e. volume) you can find and prepare for these market changes, and even profit from them. Learn to trade the Hawkeye way.

Crude Corner: Oil Industry Insights, Market Analysis and Price Outlook

WTI Light Sweet Crude Oil Futures Analysis

July – CLN20 Contract

For Today:

The $36.00 price area will likely contain selling pressure. The mid $37.00 price area is likely and able to contain buying throughout the balance of June.

Near-Term Bullish Scenario:

Breaking above the mid $37.00 price area allows for upward momentum towards the mid $39.00 price area. A daily settlement above the mid $37.00 price area signifies near-term target at the mid $42.00 price area within a week or so. Long-term upside target at the mid $55.00 price area is then likely over several weeks.

Near-Term Bearish Scenario:

Breaking below the $36.00 price area allows for a retest of the $35.00 price area. Closing below the mid $35.00 price area would allow for a retest of the mid $33.00 price area which will likely contain near term selling.

Commodities are Showing Signs of Reversal

The commodities are showing signs of reversal. In today’s update, I show two that I particularly like: Soybeans and Corn. Both are giving me indications that they are breaking out of consolidation with volume strength.

From the charts

The daily Soybean futures contract @S (SN20) has broken it’s consolidation range, giving us a confirmed trend, volume, and momentum bullish indication. Buying pressure is strong as shown by the rising Hawkeye Volume green bars. In addition, this breakout is supported by longerterm volume on our 2nd timeframe. All we need is for this week to close out with a weekly volume bar green, and we have a full buy signal.

You can look at the Corn futures contract @C (CN20) the same way. Hawkeye shows a green trend, volume and momentum, along with green buying on the longerterm volume. All we need is a weekly green volume bar for final buy confirmation.

The Hawkeye Perspective

All of these signals are clearly shown on our charts by the Hawkeye indicators. But the BEST part of this was that we saw it coming on April 21st… over a month ago! Volume leads price, and understanding how to trade with volume and price is the EDGE. Learn to trade the Hawkeye way.

“Crude Corner”: Oil Industry Insights, Market Analysis and Price Outlook

To call this ride crude oil has been on “wild” is clearly an understatement. From prices trading at nearly NEGATIVE $40.00 a barrel when approaching expiration of the May contract, to the Saudi & Russian price war, pared with the global economic shutdowns generating over supply and completely depleting demand – to a historic comeback of prices rallying nearly 90% during the calendar month of May. This year thus far has undoubtedly been the wildest ride of my trading career!

The craziest part of all of this is the insane opportunities the market continues to present. To think looking back that I’ve made less money in calmer seas than these rough unpredictable times makes this all that more exciting. Adversity often presents opportunity, and that’s exactly what is happening throughout all of this craziness.

I suspect the crude oil market is most likely coming due for a short-term correction. A base of support is much needed to be formed which the market is currently lacking. The July contract has been rallying on average approximately $4.00 per week to the upside for the past 4 straight weeks in a row.

I believe the market will have a greater chance of following through with it’s current rally trajectory if along the way there are bottoms placed and solidified. The $36.00 – the mid $37.00 price area will likely determine if this rally has a pullback or if it continues on its current upward path.

If buying strength weakens we could see a healthy correction to as deep as the $26.00 price area. This formation of a secondary, higher bottom would confirm buyer’s interest in driving this current rally onward and upward.

If the $31.00 price area is broken through, the $26.00 price area will most likely be able to contain remaining selling. The next 2 bullish target’s I’m looking at are at the mid $37.00 price area and further to the upside between the $39.00 – $40.00 price area.

There is a confluence of intraday upside resistance / supply that would need to be successfully broken through on multiple timeframe Hawkeye Zones at $37.33 – this break would be key to see the next suspected upside target at the $39.00 price area.

Check out this week’s Crude Corner Passive Breakout Trade Idea(s) offering both bullish and bearish scenarios. This strategy suggests 3 contracts for each trade. 1 Stop with 3 Targets. If there are open position(s) at 1400 EST on Friday or on the last day of the trading week, I would recommend closing them out before the weekend.

PLEASE NOTE: I would strongly recommend the use of confirmation tools and the implementation of your unique trade management plan before entering any trade.

Crude Corner: Oil Industry Insights, Market Analysis and Price Outlook

Oil futures moved lower on Thursday after industry data showed a surprise increase in United States crude stocks, which offset hopes for a demand recovery as coronavirus lockdowns ease.

For the week ending May 22 United States stockpiles rose by 7.9 million barrels, the United States Energy Information Administration said. Analysts had been expecting a draw of 1.3 million barrels.

Data from industry group API showed United States crude stocks rose 8.7 million barrels in the week to May 22, against analyst expectations for a 1.9 million-barrel draw.

Also weighing on prices was uncertainty about Russia’s commitment to continuing deep output cuts ahead of a June 9 meeting of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries and its allies, a grouping dubbed OPEC+.

Saudi Arabia and some other OPEC oil producers are considering extending record high output cuts until the end of 2020 but have yet to win support from Russia, according to OPEC+ and Russian sources.

Reportedly, Russian President Vladimir Putin and Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman agreed during a telephone call on further “close coordination” on output restrictions on Wednesday.

With United States WTI holding above $30 a barrel, OPEC+ will be watching to see whether United States shale oil producers, who have breakeven prices in the high $20 to low $30 range, step up production.

YEARLY Crude Oil Cycles

  • The 10 year cycle makes a high on May 3 and then sells off sharply into May 25 after which it rallies from a major low.
  • The 20 year cycle rallies sharply into May 19 then trades sideways into month end.
  • The 30 year cycle rallies into May 14 then sells off into the end of the month.
  • The 10 and 30 year cycles both head down from the 14th May.

Key turning point dates:

  • May 4
  • May 18
  • May 29

MONTHLY Crude Oil Outlook ( JULY – CLN20 )

The $12.00 price area can absorb annual selling pressures. Above which the $39.00 price area remains a several week target. If achieved, then the mid $55.00 price area would likely be in reach over the next several months.

Bullish Outlook:

The mid $26.00 price area can likely absorb selling pressure throughout the balance of May. Above which the $39.00 price area is the next near term several week target.

A daily settlement above the $39.00 price area indicates a good annual low has been made. Then the mid $55.00 price area would be attainable within several weeks.

Bearish Outlook:

A daily settlement below the mid $26.00 price area would likely yield a $12.00 price area retest within several weeks, which would likely bottom out selling pressure for the remainder of the year.

WEEKLY Crude Oil Outlook ( JULY – CLM20 )

The main trend remains bearish according to the weekly swing chart, however, momentum has been trending to the upside since the formation of the closing price reversal bottom the week-ending May 1.

The market has a lot more work to do before the trend changes to bullish on the weekly chart. A trade through the last main top at $54.86 will change the main trend to bullish. A move through $17.27 will signal a resumption of the downward trend.

The minor range is $37.64 to $17.27. It’s 50% level at $27.46 remains it’s support. This price is actually controlling the near-term direction of the market.

The short-term range is $54.86 to $17.27. It’s 50% level at $36.07 which services as the first upside bullish target.

The main range is $62.95 to $17.27. It’s retracement zone at $40.11 to $45.50 is the major upside target. This zone likely controls the longer-term direction of the market.

Technical Forecast

Given the price action over the last three weeks, the direction of the July WTI crude oil futures contract the week-ending May 29 is likely to be determined by trader reaction to the steep uptrending Gann angle at $33.27.

Bullish Scenario

A sustained move over $27.46 will indicate the presence of buyers. This could trigger a rally into the downtrending Gann angle at $28.86. Since the main trend is down, sellers could come in on the first test of $28.86, however, overtaking it could trigger an acceleration to the upside with near-term targets the minor top at $35.18 and the 50% level at $36.07.

Bearish Scenario

A sustained move under $33.27 will signal the presence of sellers. This could trigger the start of a steep break with the first target $27.46, followed by another uptrending Gann angle at $25.27.

Technical Summary

Counter-trend upside momentum has been driving up July WTI crude oil since the week-ending May 1 at a pace of $4.00 per week. If this upside momentum is to continue the week-ending May 29 then the market is going to have to hold above $33.27. A failure to hold $33.27 will indicate that momentum is weakening. This could trigger a near-term correction towards $25.27.

Getting Back to Work!

In today’s market update, I show how excited the markets are about all of us getting back to work. The bullish moves are continuing across the board as all the markets, even the poor Russell 2000 are breaking out to the long side. But there is a caution to warn you about, and I’ll show you in today video.

From the charts

The daily chart is my favorite chart for looking at trends. The S&P e-mini (ES) is coming right up to the 3039.50 price we identified last week, falling just short at 3035 overnight, on good bullish volume. The Dow e-mini (YM) also broke out with bullishness, headed for 25842 on the upside. The Russell e-mini (RTY) also broke out long and is tagging it’s overhead resistance target of 1440, again pointed out last week. All of these are with good buying pressure.

However, the biggest bull of them all is starting to show signs of a potential reversal/correction… and that’s the Nasdaq e-mini (NQ). Yesterday closed with a big old volume reversal signal just as it entered overhead resistance (supply zone). As the other market reached for the stars, NQ tried and failed, with a huge amount of selling pressure. If this continues, the downside potential of NQ is around 9144, and if so, the rest of the market might be following.

“Crude Corner”: Oil Industry Insights, Market Analysis and Price Outlook

In the last two months, oil has hit two very different milestones.

In April, West Texas Intermediate, the United States oil benchmark, plunged below zero and into negative territory for the first time ever on record.

Meanwhile, May is shaping up to be WTI’s best month ever, going back to the contract’s inception in 1983.

This has been a never before seen, astonishing turnaround.

Improvements on both the demand and supply side of the equation have pushed prices higher.

Data shows that people in the United States and China are starting to hit the road again, while producers around the globe have cut output at record rates in an effort to prop up prices.

The latest figures from EIA show that United States production has dropped 1.6M BPD below the March high of 13.1M BPD.

Exxon, Chevron and ConocoPhillips are among the companies that have scaled back operations.

The contract has jumped more than 70% in May and posted four straight weeks of gains, but some traders warn that the near-term outlook for oil remains uncertain, and that prices could head back into the $20’s after settling around $33 last Friday.

Additionally, part of WTI’s blistering rally this month is due to the historic low from which it bounced.

Prices are still about 50% below January’s high of $65.65, significantly cutting into profits for energy companies, which are often saddled with debt.

A number of United States energy companies have already filed for bankruptcy protection, including Whiting Petroleum, which was once a large player in the Bakken region.

If prices stay at depressed levels, there could be more financial casualties.

Still, the market has shown signs of rebalancing itself, and analysts say that if demand continues to improve and producers keep wells shut-in, the worst of what we’ve seen in recent months could be over for oil.

Bearish Scenario

A sustained move under $33.27 will signal the presence of sellers. This could trigger the start of a steep break with the first target $27.46, followed by another uptrending Gann angle at $25.27.

Crude Corner Weekly Trade Recap … 5/18 – 5/22

Our bullish breakout confirmed a long entry at $30.75. We entered the trade with 3 targets: one contract to be executed at each target.

Once the first target contract was filled, we moved our stop to break even as there was no reason to risk our profit on the table for the remainder of the week.

Targets 2 and 3 later in the week were successfully filled.

So the total take for last week executing this strategy paid us $5,600.

Not too shabby for just having to set up the trade, move your stop to break even, step aside and let it ride!

Have you taken advantage of any of these crude oil moves?

If so, hit leave a comment and tell us what trade you took and how you did!

Oil prices rose to the highest level since March on Thursday, supported by lower United States crude inventories, OPEC-led supply cuts and recovering demand as governments ease restrictions imposed on people’s movements due to the coronavirus crisis.

In the latest sign the supply glut is easing, United States crude inventories fell approximately million barrels last week. Meanwhile, analysts had been expecting an increase.

The rally in the crude futures is beginning to approach levels in which United States shale production declines will begin to slow and possibly reverse as low cost producers attempt to generate revenue.

At the same time, there is evidence of recovering in fuel consumption.

Top United States airlines and Air Canada on Tuesday reported slower ticket cancellations and an improvement in bookings on some routes, though executives said overall demand remained relatively weak.

The Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries, Russia and other allies, known as OPEC+, agreed to cut supply by a record 9.7 million barrels per day from May 1.

So far in May, OPEC+ has cut oil exports by about 6 million BPD, according to companies that track the flows, suggesting a strong start in complying with the deal. OPEC says the market has responded well.

Unemployment Remains a Concern

With now nearly 39 million American workers on unemployment and countless Americans who are either ineligible to collect or are still waiting for their unemployment to be processed – growing recession / depression concerns linger.

YEARLY Crude Oil Cycles

  • The 10 year cycle makes a high on May 3 and then sells off sharply into May 25 after which it rallies from a major low.
  • The 20 year cycle rallies sharply into May 19 then trades sideways into month end.
  • The 30 year cycle rallies into May 14 then sells off into the end of the month.
  • The 10 and 30 year cycles both head down from the 14th May.

Key turning point dates:

  • May 4
  • May 18
  • May 29

MONTHLY Crude Oil Outlook ( JULY – CLN20 )

The mid $12.00 price area can absorb annual selling pressures. Above which the mid $39.00 price area remains a several week target. Potentially the mid $55.00 price area is in reach over the next several months.

Bullish Outlook:

The $28.00 price area can likely absorb selling pressure throughout the balance of May. Above which the mid $39.00 price area is the next near term several week target.

A daily settlement above the mid $39.00 price area indicates a good annual low has been made. Then the mid $55.00 price area would be attainable within several more weeks, likely making the high for the remainder of the year.

Bearish Outlook:

A weekly settlement below the $28.00 price area would most likely yield a $12.00 price area retest within several weeks, which would likely bottom out selling pressure for the remainder of the year.

WEEKLY Crude Oil Outlook ( JULY – CLM20 )

The main trend remains bearish according to the weekly swing chart, however, momentum has been trending higher since the formation of the closing price reversal bottom from the week-ending May 1.

The main trend will change to bullish on a trade through the nearest swing top at $54.86. This is highly unlikely, but there is room for a normal 50% to 61.8% retracement.

A trade through $17.27 will negate the closing price reversal bottom and will signal a resumption of the downward trend.

The minor trend is also bearish. A trade through $35.18 will change the minor trend to bullish. This will confirm the shift in near-term momentum. The minor range is $37.64 to $17.27. It’s 50% level at $27.46 is controlling the near-term direction of the market.

The short-term range is $54.86 to $17.27. It’s 50% level at $36.07 is the primary upside target. The weekly gap at $37.64 to $41.88 is another potential resistance zone. The main range is $62.95 to $17.27. It’s retracement zone at $40.11 to $45.50 is controlling the longer-term direction of the market.

Weekly Forecast

Based on last week’s price action, the direction of the July WTI crude oil market for the week-ending May 22 is likely to be determined by trader reaction to the 50% level at $27.46.

Bullish Scenario

A sustained move over $27.46 will indicate the presence of buyers. This could trigger a rally into the downtrending Gann angle at $28.86. Since the main trend is down, sellers could come in on the first test of $28.86, however, overtaking it could trigger an acceleration to the upside with near-term targets the minor top at $35.18 and the 50% level at $36.07.

Bearish Scenario

A sustained move under $27.46 will signal the presence of sellers. The first downside target is a downtrending Gann angle at $24.95. Crossing to the weak side of this angle will put the market in a bearish position with the first target a minor 50% level at $23.14, followed by the main bottom at $17.27.

Gold Setup Trade Opportunity Using Volume

In today’s update, I look at the Gold market, specifically the GC gold June futures instrument. I see a gold setup trade opportunity using volume that is really exciting! Check it out:

When you use volume, and understand price action, you have a better feel for where price will be and where it is heading. That’s what I saw today with gold.

From the charts

From the 60min chart, I see GC coming up into a supply zone around 1740, where it has been rejected several times before with large selling pressure. This same zone was hit today, rejected, and is now setting up for a great trade opportunity.

From the 3min chart (my personal favorite), I see a bullish run up to the 1740 area, right where volume signaled this range as a potential reversal area. This was confirmed with the 6min and 12min charts. So taking a low risk short entry in this area, with stops just outside the 1742 peak would provide a high reward opportunity of 5:1 or even 10:1.

The Hawkeye Perspective

When you trade with volume and price, you can better identify these types of low risk, high probability trade setups. You know ahead of time the potential for the setup, and you are prepared to take the trade know that probabilities are on your side.

“Crude Corner”: Oil Industry Insights, Market Analysis and Price Outlook

Crude Corner Weekly Trade Recap: 5/11 – 5/15

Our bullish breakout confirmed a long entry at $27.15. We entered the trade with 3 targets — one contract to be executed at each target. Our first target was acquired at $28.35, locking in $1,200.

Once that target contract was filled, we moved our stop to break even as there was no reason to risk our profit on the table for the remainder of the week. Targets 2 and 3 were never successfully filled.

This being a passive, weekly trade strategy we closed out our 2 remaining contracts at the closing price of the 1400 EST candle on Friday afternoon at $29.59 paying us a generous $4,880.

That puts the total take for last week at just over $6,000 using this strategy!

Not too shabby for just having to set up the trade, move your stop to break even and close out the open contracts Friday afternoon.

The First Signs Of Real Oil Demand Recovery Are Here

United States West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude oil futures are breaking out to the upside of a seven-session trading range, solidifying its third consecutive weekly higher close. The catalyst behind last week’s strength is a report that showed China’s daily crude oil throughput rebounded in April from a 15-month low in March as refiners cranked up operations to meet renewed fuel demand after lockdowns imposed to prevent the spread of the coronavirus outbreak were eased. Friday’s move was impressive, but upside momentum had been building most of the week with the market underpinned by a friendly government inventories report, the announcement of government crude oil purchases for its strategic reserve and a dampening of concerns over rising supply by the International Energy Agency (IEA).

China’s Daily Crude Oil Throughput Rebounds

China processed a total of 53.85 million tonnes of crude oil last month, data from the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) showed on Friday, equivalent to about 13.1 million barrels per day (BPD). That was some 11% higher than 11.78 million BPD in March. The agency said on Friday it had adjusted the database of industrial enterprises it uses to help compile a range of production numbers. On that basis, April’s crude oil throughput was 0.8% above the year-ago level, it said; a Reuters calculation using NBS data from last year put the rise at 3.4%. Additionally, state-backed refiners have pushed up crude oil processing rates to around 79% in May, according to estimates from consultancy Longzhong Information Group, close to January’s 82% level before extensive movement restrictions were imposed to prevent the coronavirus spreading.

US to Buy Up to 1 Million Barrels of Oil for Emergency Reserve

The U.S. Energy Department said on Wednesday it will buy up to 1 million barrels of sweet crude for the government’s emergency petroleum reserve as part an effort to help producers struggling as the coronavirus strangles oil demand. The purchase of up to 1 million barrels “will serve as a test of the current conditions of physical crude oil available to the SPR as opposed to the financial market trading WTI NYMEX futures contracts,” the department said in a release. The department will purchase the oil from small to midsize domestic producers, it said.

Upbeat Supply/Demand Estimates

Oil prices are also being underpinned after a drop in U.S. crude stocks and an IEA forecast for lower global stockpiles in the second half. On Wednesday, the U.S. government reported that crude inventories fell for the first time in 15 weeks. Meanwhile, the International Energy Agency (IEA) on Thursday again forecast a record drop in demand in 2020 though it trimmed its estimate of the fall citing easing lockdown measures.

Key turning point dates:

MONTHLY Crude Oil Outlook ( JULY – CLN20 )

The $12.00 price area can absorb annual selling pressures. Above which the mid $40.00 price area remains a several week target. Potentially the mid $55.00 price area is in reach over the next several months.

Bullish Outlook:

The mid $28.00 price area can likely absorb selling pressure throughout the balance of May. Above which the mid $40.00 price area is the next near term several week target.

A daily settlement above the mid $40.00 price area indicates a good annual low has been made. Then the mid $55.00 price area would be attainable within several months, likely making the high for the remainder of the year.

Bearish Outlook:

A weekly settlement below the mid $28.00 price area would likely yield a mid $12.00 price area retest within several weeks, which would likely bottom out selling pressure for the remainder of the year.

WEEKLY Crude Oil Outlook ( JULY – CLM20 )

The main trend remains bearish according to the weekly swing chart, however, momentum has been trending higher since the formation of the closing price reversal bottom from the week-ending May 1.

The main trend will change to bullish on a trade through the nearest swing top at $54.86. This is highly unlikely, but there is room for a normal 50% to 61.8% retracement.

A trade through $17.27 will negate the closing price reversal bottom and will signal a resumption of the downward trend.

The minor trend is also bearish. A trade through $35.18 will change the minor trend to bullish. This will confirm the shift in near-term momentum. The minor range is $37.64 to $17.27. It’s 50% level at $27.46 is controlling the near-term direction of the market.

The short-term range is $54.86 to $17.27. It’s 50% level at $36.07 is the primary upside target. The weekly gap at $37.64 to $41.88 is another potential resistance zone. The main range is $62.95 to $17.27. It’s retracement zone at $40.11 to $45.50 is controlling the longer-term direction of the market

Weekly Forecast

Based on last week’s price action, the direction of the July WTI crude oil market for the week-ending May 22 is likely to be determined by trader reaction to the 50% level at $27.46.

Bullish Scenario

A sustained move over $27.46 will indicate the presence of buyers. This could trigger a rally into the downtrending Gann angle at $28.86. Since the main trend is down, sellers could come in on the first test of $28.86, however, overtaking it could trigger an acceleration to the upside with near-term targets the minor top at $35.18 and the 50% level at $36.07.

Bearish Scenario

A sustained move under $27.46 will signal the presence of sellers. The first downside target is a downtrending Gann angle at $24.95. Crossing to the weak side of this angle will put the market in a bearish position with the first target a minor 50% level at $23.14, followed by the main bottom at $17.27.

A Potential Breakout is Forming

In today’s market update, I show how the S&P 500 emini futures contract is showing us that a potential breakout is forming. From the Daily chart, we saw bullishness forming last week (May 14th) from a reversal bar, and we expected higher prices this week. However, we didn’t expect it to happen in 2 days!

From the charts

The daily ES chart (up 3.7%) will confirm a break from consolidation if we can close today, May 18th, above 2947. This bullish breakout is inline with the bullish volume reversal signal we identified on May 14th. This also agrees with the ES weekly chart, where we saw a bullish reversal signal identified on Mar 27th, right at the low of the correction.

The S&P isn’t the only instrument looking to breakout today. The Nasdaq (NQ) is confirming a return to a bull trend with today’s 2.7% rise. Today’s breakout will put NQ a stone’s throw away from pre-corona virus price levels… what a beast!

But today’s real monster is the Russell 2000 Index future, RTY. Today, it’s up 6.7% and also has the potential for a bullish breakout from consolidation. All of these instruments, ES, NQ, YM, and RTY signals this bullish intent last week on May 14, and now today are making good their intentions. If you own a copy of Hawkeye, you can see this for yourself. However, if you don’t, you need to get your own copy so you too can see the market’s intent, and be ready to profit from these breakouts.
