Speciale Analysis

Hey Trader,


Steadfastness and Legacy in Your Trading Journey


I hope this message finds you well. As you continue to navigate the complexities of the trading world, I wanted to share a verse that offers encouragement and a reminder of the strength that comes from living with integrity:


"Surely the righteous will never be shaken; they will be remembered forever."

  • Psalm 112:6


In the often unpredictable and volatile environment of the financial markets, it's crucial to stay grounded and resilient.


This verse reassures us that those who act with righteousness and integrity will remain unshaken, no matter the challenges they face.


Your dedication, ethical practices, and unwavering commitment to your principles will not only help you stand firm during tumultuous times but also leave a lasting legacy.


As you make your trading decisions, let this verse inspire you to remain steadfast in your values and confident in your strategies.


Your integrity and hard work will ensure that you are not only successful but also remembered and respected in the trading community.


May this assurance of stability and enduring impact guide you in all your trading endeavors. Wishing you success and strength in your journey!


Be Relentless In Pursuit Of The Will 

Which God Has Set Upon Your Heart,

Anthony Speciale



Quick Scalp At ReTest Of Double-Top Neckline


Hey there, fellow traders. Anthony Speciale here from Speciale Analysis.


I hope everyone’s having a phenomenal day!


I want to share an insightful analysis of a recent trade I executed in the crude oil market.


I’ll walk you through my entire thought process from beginning to end.


This should give you a clearer picture of how I approach the market, especially on days that start off less than perfect.


A Rocky Start


Let me give you a little backstory before we dive into the trade details.


Last night, a storm knocked out our power, and we had to rely on a generator.


We had cable when we went to bed but woke up with no internet connection.


So, it was a bumpy morning. I wasn’t fully dialed into the market until the afternoon, after getting everything reset once the power and internet were restored.


The Trade Setup



Although this program is more swing trading-oriented, I also conduct intraday trades with folks who trade live with me daily.


After getting everything up and running, I noticed a quick opportunity in the market.


Here’s how it unfolded:


  1. High of $82.04: This was a significant target for us.

  2. Lower High at 11:30: The market placed a lower high at 11:30 AM.

  3. Interior Double Top: This was evident with a neckline at the low of the candle printed at 10:25 AM.


At 11:40 AM, a Hawkeye Wide Bar on high buying volume opened and closed lower than previous candles, indicating some concern. However, I focused on the neckline break and its retest, particularly a candle at 12:50 PM that highlighted trapped buyers.

Execution and Analysis


When the candle printed at the neckline, I hit the sell market button. This was a quick in-and-out trade.


Here’s why it stood out:


  • Trapped Buyers: Significant imbalance of trapped buyers in the high of the candle.

  • VWAP Interaction: I took profits quickly around the session VWAP level.

  • Quick Decision: This trade was either going to work quickly, or it wasn’t. The risk was minimal, with an entry at 81.54 and a stop at 81.58.


Visual Analysis


I'll include an image in the blog post to show you the footprint chart where these trapped buyers were evident.

Understanding these nuances is crucial for making informed trading decisions.


Key Takeaways


Here are a few important lessons from this trade:


  1. Not Every Trade is a Home Run: Sometimes, small, quick profits are all you need. This trade didn’t pay the mortgage, but it was profitable enough for a nice dinner out.

  2. Adapting to Market Conditions: Despite a disrupted morning, I adapted quickly once I saw an opportunity.

  3. No Bias Trading: It’s important to trade what you see, not what you believe. I waited and watched the market for 30 minutes to understand the current situation before making a move.


Identifying Key Areas


Identifying key areas, such as lower highs, double tops, and necklines, can significantly enhance your trading strategy.



The drop in buying volume at session highs and subsequent selling volume further validated my trade.


Higher Time Frame Context


Looking at higher time frames is essential.


On the daily and weekly charts, crude oil was stuck between $80.80 and $82.40.


Recognizing this range helped frame my intraday decision.


testimonial

This quick trade exemplifies the importance of being prepared, adaptable, and focused on the market’s signals.


Even a brief disruption didn’t deter me from executing a profitable trade.



Thank you for reading, and I look forward to seeing you in our next session!


God bless, and have a wonderful day!

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.

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.
