Dow Jones: Potential Retracement After Consolidat

מעודכן
The Dow Jones Industrial Average (US30) is showing signs of exhaustion after several days of consolidation between the 41,800 and 42,300 price levels. We are now observing a potential bearish setup that may lead to a retracement towards the 41,400–41,000 zone, aligning with the 0.5 Fibonacci level on the FibCloud indicator. If this scenario plays out, it could offer a solid short opportunity for traders looking to capitalize on this potential pullback. Monitoring key levels and price action will be crucial in managing this trade.

Technical Analysis:
• Price Action: The Dow has been trading within a narrow range, indicating indecision and a potential loss of bullish momentum. A break below the consolidation zone could trigger a downward move towards the 0.5 FibCloud level.
• FibCloud Indicator: The target zone between 41,400 and 41,000 aligns with the 0.5 Fibonacci retracement level, providing a strong confluence for a possible retracement.
• Support & Resistance Levels: The immediate support is at 41,800, and a break below this level could see the index testing the 41,400–41,000 zone. Resistance remains at 42,300, a break above which could invalidate the bearish setup.
• Volume & Momentum: Decreasing volume and fading bullish momentum suggest a potential reversal. Traders should watch for confirmation signals such as bearish candlestick patterns or a momentum shift.

Trade Setup:
• Entry: Consider entering a short position below the 42,260 support level with a strong bearish confirmation.
• The stop-loss is set at a 2:1 risk-reward ratio, with an SL at 42,695 and a TP at 41,400. If strong momentum develops, the target will be extended to the 41,000 price zone.

The Dow Jones is at a critical juncture, and the upcoming price action will provide more clarity on the next directional move. This setup offers a favorable risk-to-reward ratio for traders looking to position themselves for a potential retracement. Stay updated on economic releases and price action developments to manage this trade effectively.

Note: Please remember to adjust this trade idea according to your individual trading conditions, including position size, broker-specific price variations, and any relevant external factors. Every trader’s situation is unique, so it’s crucial to tailor your approach to your own risk tolerance and market environment.

The trade is currently back at the entry price. Yesterday, we saw a drop to 41.9 following J. Powell’s discussion, which introduced some volatility. For now, the trade is still in play, and we’ll continue to monitor its development.

The Dow is dropping and has failed to make a new high. At this point, I’m watching for a break below 14,800 to confirm a continuation towards our target. I’m actively monitoring the market, especially with the start of the new month and Q4, and will adjust the strategy based on upcoming news and stock market developments.

It has been five days since I entered this trade, and I’m not seeing the expected follow-through. I’ve started taking partial profits on the way down and have moved my stop loss to the entry price to secure the trade. The setup no longer respects my criteria, and the wicks left on the chart have made it difficult to have a clear target. However, if I see an aggressive drop, I will consider staying in the position. For now, I’ll proceed with caution.
העסקה בוטלה באופן ידני
I decided to close the trade halfway at 41.844. The trade wasn’t easy to manage due to the prolonged sideways movement, and with the potential for a double bottom to send the price back towards the 42.500 - 42.600 range, I opted to close out fully. It’s crucial to follow your trading plan—if the market isn’t moving as expected, it’s better to minimize risk, reassess the setup, and wait for a clearer opportunity.

As always, don’t forget to pay yourself when in profit. Have a great trading week!
