Hey Trader,


A Timeless Reminder for Traders


I hope this message finds you well. I wanted to share a verse that offers powerful inspiration, especially for us in the trading world:


"Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows." - James 1:17


In the ever-changing landscape of the markets, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed by volatility and uncertainty. This verse reminds us that amidst all the fluctuations, there is a constant and unchanging source of goodness and stability.


Just as we navigate the highs and lows of trading, let’s remember that true value and perfect gifts come from above, providing us with the strength and clarity we need.


Keep this in mind as you continue your trading journey, and may it inspire you to seek consistency and integrity in all your endeavors.


Be Relentless In Pursuit Of The Will 

Which God Has Set Upon Your Heart,

Anthony Speciale



Live Trading: Never Discount "Looking Left"


Hello, traders! Anthony Speciale here with Special Analysis, and today, I’m excited to break down a trade I executed this morning on crude oil.



Understanding these setups can significantly enhance your trading strategy, particularly if you are a retail trader seeking to refine your approach.


The 4:45 AM Candle: Key Insights


Our analysis starts with the 4:45 AM candle, which showcased a large wick and high buying volume.


Recognizing this buying volume, yet seeing no follow-through and a subsequent aggressive selloff back to prior lows, suggested that a retest of this area might establish supply or a potential reversal point.


This set the stage for anticipating a further push to the downside.



High Buying Volume and Trapped Traders


Fast forward to the 7:20 AM and 7:25 AM candles, both of which exhibited strong buying volumes but lacked follow-through.


This scenario indicated trapped buyers at the top of the candle.


My analysis inferred that if the candle held, a selloff would likely ensue, pushing the price downward.


And that’s precisely what happened.



Trade Execution and Risk Management


Let’s zoom in on the trade execution and risk management:


  • Entry: I got short at 79.31, placing my stop above the high of the prior wick, risking six ticks.

  • Profit Targets:

  • First target: 79.17, securing 14 ticks.

  • Second target: 79.10, securing 21 ticks.

  • Third target: 78.90, securing 41 ticks.

  • Final target: Prior low area, securing 52 ticks.


I scaled out of the position as the price moved towards prior lows to manage risk and lock in profits. This approach is crucial when trading against potential market reversals.


Trading successfully requires a deep understanding of market dynamics.


Analyzing the Pullback


During our live session at 8:35 AM, the price pulled back into the rolling VWAP and session VWAP.



The market needed to test and break 78.80 (prior lows) and potentially move towards 78.60 - 78.50, providing significant liquidity.


Indeed, the market fell just short of 78.20 by just 1 tick before starting to reverse.


Spotting Resistance and Opportunities


An important observation was made on a specific candle showing strong selling volume but no follow-through.



My analysis noted that if the price failed to close above prior lows, it could indicate resistance and a subsequent push lower.


The market did test the rolling VWAP but fell short, indicating the presence of sellers and affirming our analysis.


Providing Analysis, Interpretation, and Expectations



My primary role is to provide you with a detailed analysis, interpretation, and expectations based on market evidence. Here’s a recap of my thought process:


  • Analysis: We’re in a downtrend.

  • Interpretation: The current price action may represent a lower high.

  • Expectation: Targets were set at 78.80, 78.60, 78.50, and ultimately 78.20.



I’m here to guide you through the intricacies of market movements, helping you develop a robust trading plan.


Accepting Market Realities


It's crucial to understand that trading involves risks and losses.


If you are searching for a 100% win rate, this industry might not be for you.


Success in trading comes from learning to manage losses and developing strategies that work consistently over time.



I hope this breakdown provides valuable insights into how to approach crude oil trading with a disciplined and analytical mindset.

U.S. Government Required Disclaimer Stock, Futures, Forex & Options trading has large potential rewards, but also large potential risk and it is not appropriate for everyone. You must be aware of the risks and be willing to accept them in order to speculate in the Stocks, Futures, Forex, and Options markets. Don’t trade with money you can’t afford to lose. This is neither a solicitation nor an offer to Buy/Sell any securities.

CFTC RULE 4.41 Hypothetical or simulated performance results have many inherent limitations, some of which are described below. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown. In fact, there are frequently sharp differences between hypothetical performance results and the actual results subsequently achieved by any particular trading program. One of the limitations of hypothetical performance results is that they are generally prepared with the benefit of hindsight. In addition, hypothetical trading does not involve financial risk, and no hypothetical trading record can completely account for the impact of financial risk in actual trading. For example, the ability to withstand losses or to adhere to a particular trading program in spite of trading losses are material points which can also adversely affect actual trading results. There are numerous other factors related to the markets in general or to the implementation of any specific trading program which cannot be fully accounted for in the preparation of hypothetical performance results and all of which can adversely affect actual trading results.

IMPORTANT NOTICE! No representation is being made that the use of this strategy or any system or trading methodology will generate profits. Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results. There is substantial risk of loss associated with trading securities and options on equities. Only risk capital should be used to trade. Trading securities is not suitable for everyone.

Cryptocurrency Trading Cryptocurrencies on margin carries a high level of risk, and may not be suitable for everyone. Past performance is not indicative of future results. The high degree of leverage can work against you as well as for you. Before getting involved in Cryptocurrency trading you should carefully consider your personal venture objectives, level of experience, and risk appetite. The possibility exists that you could sustain a loss of some or all of your initial deposit and therefore you should not place funds that you cannot afford to lose.

You should fully understand the risks associated with trading futures, options, ETF’s and retail off-exchange foreign currency transactions (“Forex”) before making any trades.

Hypothetical Results Hypothetical or simulated performance results have certain inherent limitations - unless noted otherwise that an image or any material discloses live money was used, results displayed or openly discussed are to be assumed simulated for educational purposes only. No live money brokerage accounts will be traded or displayed by request or otherwise.  Unlike an actual performance record, simulated results do not represent actual trading. Also, since the trades have not actually been executed, the results may have under- or over-compensated for the impact, if any, of certain market factors, such as lack of liquidity. Simulated trading programs, in general, are also subject to the fact that they are designed with the benefit of hindsight. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown.

ONE OF THE LIMITATIONS OF HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS IS THAT THEY ARE GENERALLY PREPARED WITH THE BENEFIT OF HINDSIGHT. IN ADDITION, HYPOTHETICAL TRADING DOES NOT INVOLVE FINANCIAL RISK, AND NO HYPOTHETICAL TRADING RECORD CAN COMPLETELY ACCOUNT FOR THE IMPACT OF FINANCIAL RISK IN ACTUAL TRADING. FOR EXAMPLE, THE ABILITY TO WITHSTAND LOSSES OR TO ADHERE TO A PARTICULAR TRADING PROGRAM IN SPITE OF TRADING LOSSES ARE MATERIAL POINTS WHICH CAN ALSO ADVERSELY AFFECT ACTUAL TRADING RESULTS. THERE ARE NUMEROUS OTHER FACTORS RELATED TO MARKETS IN GENERAL OR TO THE IMPLEMENTATION OF ANY SPECIFIC TRADING PROGRAM WHICH CANNOT BE FULLY ACCOUNTED FOR IN THE PREPARATION OF HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS AND ALL OF WHICH CAN ADVERSELY AFFECT ACTUAL TRADING RESULTS.
