How To Trade Macro News Using Reversal Trades


Trading during the macroeconomic news is obviously very risky and I wouldn’t recommend it to anybody. However, there is a way how you can participate in a strong macro news. Let me demonstrate on a trade which I took with members of my course yesterday.
The trade was based on my USD/JPY intraday long level (111.47) that got hit on Friday during the NFP news (Non-Farm Employment Change). I never trade during such important news so naturally, I didn’t enter the trade. The price went past the level without any reaction and continued downwards. I marked the level and I was ready to take a reversal from this area. I did this on Monday when the price finally retraced back to the level. Check how the trade went on the picture below:


Another trade I took was a short on the EUR/USD from 1.1562. This level was based on the “Volume accumulation setup” and also on “Support becoming a resistance” setup. It is the combination of different setups that makes the strongest trading levels. Check out the trade in the picture below:


Here is a Daily video (I did for members of my course yesterday) in which I talk about reasoning  behind those two levels before they actually got hit:

Happy trading!

Bitcoin is Dropping Hard! Here’s Where Smart Money Will Buy Again

Video Transcript: Hello everyone, it’s Dale here. In today’s video, I’d like to talk about Bitcoin. The reason is that Bitcoin has been dropping like crazy, and a lot of traders are wondering where Bitcoin will go and what to expect. If I look at the chart and use Volume Profile, I would say that it’s pretty straightforward because Volume Profile very clearly shows the strongest support and resistance levels. So, let’s take a look at the chart, and let me show you. What you see before you is the daily chart of Bitcoin. This is the big picture, and as you can see, from the all-time high here, Bitcoin experienced quite a significant sell-off and is currently dropping. Right now, I don’t really see any strong support that would stand in the way of this strong sell-off. Let me use Volume Profile and show you what could actually stop the sell-off of Bitcoin. All right, so what I’m going to do is apply Volume Profile over this whole area to see the volume distribution. As you can see, there ...
