1. ETHTUSD volume analysis on the Binance Exchange.
In this analysis, we will use the data on horizontal trading volumes from the Binance Exchange on the daily charts. The analysis is based on the footprint-profile theory. According to it, the direction of the level with the highest traded volume during the day can indicate the possible direction of the trend. The level with the highest traded volume is the level where the maximum number of transactions was made. This is the level of major market players. Accordingly, if the maximum volume level moves higher, this indicates an uptrend. A downward movement of this level indicates a downtrend. Chaotic movement signals that the market is trading flat.
03.03.21 – The level of the maximum traded volume (POC – PointOfControl) – 1590
04.03.21 – The level of the maximum traded volume (POC – PointOfControl) – 1550
POC has moved lower, the price is located below the POC level. The downtrend has probably started, so you can open sell positions.
2. Analysis of the long-term trend.
A trend is your friend. Many traders know this saying but do not know how to use it. The answer is simple: trade only in the direction of the trend. This way, your trades will have more profit potential with less risk. The classic Dow Theory describes three main trends:
long-term;
medium-term;
short-term.
You need to analyze these trends before opening any trade. This is what we are going to do in the analysis below.
A long-term trend is a trend on the daily chart. Trades will be opened on the daily time frame and held for several days. The analysis of the daily trend is carried out with the help of the EMA(48), an exponential moving average with a period of 48. If the daily candlestick closes above the EMA (48), then we have an uptrend and we should open buy positions. If the daily candlestick closes below the EMA (48), then there is a downtrend and we should go short.
The price is holding at the EMA(48). The long-term trend is moving sideways, so you can both buy and sell.
3. Analysis of the medium-term trend.
In our analysis, a medium-term trend will be the trend on the 4-hour chart (H4). EMA(48), an exponential moving average with a period of 48, will also be used in this analysis. If the H4 candlestick closes above the EMA(48), then we have an uptrend and we should open buy positions. If the H4 candlestick closes below the EMA(48), then there is a downtrend and we should go short.
The price is holding below the EMA(48). The medium-term trend is moving down, so you can sell.
4. Analysis of the short-term trend.
A short-term trend that can also show an entry point into the market is considered a trend on the H1 time frame. Here, we will again use the EMA(48), an exponential moving average with a period of 48. If the H1 candlestick closes above the EMA(48), then there is an uptrend and you should open buy positions. If the H1 candlestick closes below the EMA(48), then there is a downtrend and you should go short.
The price is holding below the EMA(48). The short-term trend is moving down, so you can sell.
The long-term, medium-term, and short-term trends are moving in different directions.
5. Japanese candlestick analysis.
The Japanese candlestick analysis is applied to the daily time frame. In this analysis, we will also analyze the daily candlestick.
The daily candlestick marked with black closed lower. Its extrema points are located within the extrema of the previous candlestick. The current candlestick pattern is Harami. The downtrend is likely.

4.Short-term trend – SELL
5.Japanese candlestick analysis – SELL
