Why +80% Still Reads CHOP: BlackBerry DailyDescription:
BlackBerry (NYSE:BB), Daily chart, Ichimoku Itto (Classic preset).
WHAT ITTO SHOWS ON THE DAILY
• Score +80% (4 of 5 checks up)
• But Trend: CHOP ZONE · NO ACTION
• Price is inside a thick cloud
• Tenkan above Kijun · Future Kumo green
WHY
A high score is not enough. When price sits inside a thick Kumo, Itto reads the zone as chop first. The cloud is where buyers and sellers are still fighting.
ZOOM OUT: THE WEEKLY
On the Weekly, Itto reads UP and price is far above a thin cloud.

Bitcoin: STRONG UP on the Daily, CHOP on the WeeklySame BTCUSD, same tool, two readings.
DAILY (Crypto preset)
• Score +80% · STRONG UP · price above Kumo
WEEKLY
• Score -20% · CHOP ZONE · NO ACTION · price inside Kumo
WHY
• The Crypto preset uses 20/60/120 bars. On the Daily the Kijun covers about 2 months; on the Weekly, more than a year.
• The +24% August rally fills most of the Daily window, but is only a few bars on the Weekly.
HOW THE METHOD READS IT
• W = Direction, D = Decision. When they disagree, the reading is chop: wait for th
Ichimoku Itto on BTCUSD: the Crypto presetBitcoin trades 7 days a week, so the Daily chart prints 7 bars per week. The Crypto preset (20 / 60 / 120, displacement 30) adjusts Ichimoku for that: 30 bars is about one month, close to the original idea of the displacement.
RECOMMENDED SETTINGS (BTCUSD, Daily)

BTCUSDT — Breaking Out of Weeks of Chop, With Clear Path to NPOCHook :
As the previous analysis worked exactly as predicted, BINANCE:BTCUSDT.P just blasted out of a multi-week value area in a single candle — and there isn't much trading history standing between here and the next major level.
Market Context :
BTC spent weeks consolidating between roughly 82,800 and 85,850, building a heavy value area. That range just broke with a sharp, explosive push, and price is now testing the top edge of its old range as support.
Reasoning :
1- Value area
XAUUSD: Understanding Balance vs Imbalance & Fair Value Gaps Gold (XAUUSD) – How Price Moves Between Balance & Fair Value vs Imbalance & Fair Value Gaps
Price does not move randomly. On Gold especially, it constantly alternates between two states:
1. Balance / Fair Value
- Areas where buying and selling pressure are relatively equal.
- Price spends time, consolidates, or ranges.
- These zones represent efficient price delivery — the market has “accepted” that value.
Visually: sideways ranges, overlapping candles, tight consolidations.

Bias and analysis to remain the same as analysis dated 30 June 2026.
Price did not print bullish CHoCH to indicate bullish pullback phase initiation. Price instead printed a new low followed by a bullish CHoCH
Price is currently trading within and established internal range, however, I will continue to monitor price with respect to depth of pullback.

Sell Activated + Fakeout Delivered *TradeWithMky*Sell Activated + Fakeout Delivered → Now Watching This Zone for Full Reversal
1-Hour chart just told the full story.
Sell positions activated.
Fakeout happened.
Confirmation zone broken.
Price delivered the lower box perfectly (-1% in under 4 hours).
But now the real game begins…
I marked a critical zone.
If price confirms above this zone → Uptrend is coming hard.
If it fails again → lower targets are still open.
This is how you trade both sides without guessing.

Weekly Analysis - Stock Index (ES/NQ/YM)Last week was basically NQ getting slapped around while the Dow tried to keep its composure. Oil stayed hot, Treasury yields kept the pressure on, and AI/chip stocks took some punches — but buyers still showed up by the end of the week.
This week could get messy again with CPI, PPI, retail sales and bank earnings all on deck.
If inflation comes in hot, NQ could feel it first.
If the data cools off, the bulls might finally get some breathing room.

Episode 11 — Beyond the Five-Wave Pattern
⏱️Reading time: Approximately 3 minutes*
In the previous episode, we explored how a wave can expand internally, revealing a structure far more complex than it might appear at first glance.
But this raises another question:
**If a motive move consists of five waves, why doesn't it always look like a simple, clearly defined five-wave pattern?**
To answer this, we need
SHIBA/USD:A Nested Bullish Structure or One More Decline?SHIBA/USD | Is the Correction Complete?
⏱️ Reading Time: ~2–3 minutes
On the 4H chart, I’m considering Wave C of the larger corrective structure complete. But is SHIBA ready to begin a powerful bullish move?
Under the Elliott Wave Principle, the completion of a structure at one degree does not necessarily mean all lower-degree waves are complete. Even the final move may take the form of an Ending Diagonal. That’s why wave character and internal structure matter more than price movement alone
# SHIBA: Is a Powerful Impulse Taking Shape? | Elliott Wave Prin**Sometimes, market structure reveals something that seems hard to believe at first glance.**
On SHIB’s weekly chart, my bullish scenario is based on a five-wave motive pattern, viewed through the geometry of price on an arithmetic scale. Interestingly, the impulsive character remains visible even on the logarithmic chart.
The initial waves, deep corrections, and a potentially powerful upward move reveal a market structure worth examining. Similar price behavior can also be observed across oth
AUDCAD — Bullish Structure | Tracking the Next DeliveryBullish on the higher timeframe, and here's the breakdown.
Last week, price took out the intermediate inducement level and higher-timeframe inducement before mitigating the blue higher-timeframe zone. From that area, we saw strong displacement, followed by a midterm trend change as price broke the previous lower high (LH), shifting structure back to bullish.
From there, I wanted to see price take out the midterm inducement level mapped from last week, marked by the orange level toward the rig
USDCAD — Bullish Bias | Momentum Under ObservationBullish here, but momentum is showing some indecision. Higher-timeframe momentum remains supportive, while intermediate momentum is starting to slack.
Now I’m watching two potential paths.
Price could take out the current sell-side inducement, confirm the high, and mitigate the nearby orange auction zone below before lower-timeframe momentum supports further bullish delivery.
Alternatively, price could respect the current premium location and dig deeper into the map toward equilibrium (50%) o
EURUSD — Bearish Structure, Tracking Sell-Side Opportunities This week, price continues printing bearish structure, just as mapped out last week, with strong bearish momentum favoring the downside.
The focus is on identifying potential sell points, but first, I need price to mitigate my areas of interest (POIs).
My current focus is buy-side liquidity being taken before price delivers into the first orange auction zone near the inducement level. I prefer tracking zones closer to current price because that’s where I’m looking for fresh reactions and poten
EURGBP — Bearish Intent, Late in the Leg BEAR
Bearish momentum remains in control, but I recognize we’re approaching the later stages of this bearish leg. 📉
Price has delivered down into the midterm lows, reaching the orange horizontal line marking the intermediate objective. We’ve seen price wick through that level, but no candle close below it yet.
At this point, I’m watching for the possibility of one final push lower to deliver a confirmed break of those lows. Momentum is currently favoring the bearish side, but I’m not interest
GBPJPY — Bullish Footprints Under ObservationNo trades here for now. I’m waiting for the midterm structure to confirm by breaking the major lower high marked by the hard orange line. Until that happens, I’m monitoring the bullish footprints, tracking the tape, and observing how price behaves as it approaches that level.
Here’s the breakdown:
Price mitigated the higher-timeframe order block (blue zone). From there, I looked for the intermediate structure (orange) to shift. Price took out major sell-side liquidity (SSL), mitigated the orde
AUDJPY — Bullish Structure FormingBULL
Last week, price took out midterm sell-side liquidity (SSL), delivering into the orange OB zone below. Since then, we’ve seen intermediate and higher-timeframe acceptance develop through repeated wick reactions around the auction area.
From there, lower-timeframe structure shifted from bearish to bullish by breaking the previous lower high (LH), signaling a change in short-term intent. (Trend Confirmed)
As markets reopen, I’ll be tracking the green LTF structure, waiting for its liquidit
Anticipating the Next Type of Trading: Know What Comes NextEvery bar on your chart is in one of two states: a trend or congestion. There is nothing in between. The real edge comes from asking two simple questions on every time frame, every day:
What kind of trading is each time period in right now?
What kind of trading do I expect next?
If you can answer both, you are no longer reacting to the market — you are positioned for what is most likely to happen.

Bitcoin Daily | Bullish Recovery or a Deeper Correction?⏱️ Reading Time: ~3 minutes
On Bitcoin’s daily chart, two main possibilities remain in play. The question is not simply which direction price will move next, but how the current structure develops and whether the market can provide sufficient evidence to support a continuation of the bullish trend.

Under the bullish scenario, Bitcoin must first develop a valid corrective structure. Once that correction is complete, we would expect at
Bitcoin Weekly | The Early Waves & Bitcoin’s Next Major StructurA Historical Elliott Wave Perspective | Mr. Nobody
Looking back at Bitcoin’s early price history, one detail stands out. After the green Wave 3 peaked near $0.18, Bitcoin experienced a deep decline toward $0.01 before beginning another advance that eventually reached its first major historical peak near $30.
In this count, Wave 5 extended, completing the initial impulse. This raises an interesting research question: can the personality of Bitcoin’s early price movements help us understand the
