📊 Breakout or Failed Rally? For me, I always check volume 🔍 to confirm if a breakout is real. When price hits a key MA, I’ll add with the trend ➕ but also wait for confirmation candles. And if technicals conflict with fundamentals or news, I trust the charts first 📈 — Price action reflects sentiment in real time.

The upcoming TA content will be published on this account. Part 2: The 8 Golden Rules & Candlestick Fusion While Part 1 establishes the logic of the Moving Average (MA), Part 2 focuses on execution. This section details the classic Granville’s 8 Rules for identifying buy/sell signals and explains how to sharpen those signals using specific Candlestick Patterns. Eight MA Trading Principles 1. Breakout Buy: Confirmed Uptrend Signal The Pattern: This signals a trend reversal. It occurs when the price decisively breaks upward through a Moving Average that has stopped declining, flattened, and begun a slight upward turn. Market Implication: It confirms that the \"average holding cost\" is rising and fresh capital is supporting the market, marking the start of a potential uptrend. Mechanism: The MA typically acts as resistance due to profit-taking from bottom-fishers. A successful breakout proves that strong capital inflows have absorbed this selling pressure, clearing the path for higher prices. 2. Breakdown Sell: A Potential Warning of Market Weakness The Pattern: This signals a major trend reversal to the downside. It occurs when the price decisively breaks downward through a Moving Average that has stopped rising, flattened, and begun a slight downward turn. Market Implication: It confirms that the \"average holding cost\" is falling and capital is exiting the market. This structural damage suggests the end of the previous uptrend and the start of a potential bear market. Mechanism: The MA previously acted as a support level where buyers were profitable. A breakdown signifies that selling pressure has overwhelmed demand. Recent buyers are now trapped in losses, triggering stop-loss orders and panic selling that accelerates the price decline. 3. Pullback Holding Support: Capturing Continuation Opportunities in Uptrends The Pattern: This occurs within an established uptrend where the Moving Average is clearly rising. The price retraces (pulls back) toward the MA line but does not break decisively below it. Instead, it finds support at or near the line and resumes its upward path. Market Implication: This confirms the uptrend's structural health. It indicates that despite temporary profit-taking, underlying demand remains robust, offering a high-probability entry point for trend continuation. Mechanism: As the price drops toward the \"average cost\" level, institutional and value-oriented traders view the decline as a discount rather than a reversal. New buyers step in, and existing holders refuse to sell, creating a \"floor\" of demand that propels the price back up. 4. Failed Rally: Defensive Retreat Under Bearish Pressure The Pattern: This occurs within an established downtrend where the Moving Average is clearly falling. The price rallies (rebounds) toward the MA line but fails to break above it. Instead, it meets resistance at the line and reverses downward again. Market Implication: This confirms the downtrend's dominance. It signals that bullish sentiment is too weak to overcome the structural resistance and that the market views any price recovery merely as a liquidity event to exit positions. Mechanism: As the price rises back to the \"average cost\" level, traders holding losing positions seize the chance to exit near \"break-even,\" flooding the market with supply.
