Long Trade Setup for Tron
Therein, we stated:“We are going to analyze a possible trade setup with an average entry of $0.023. The stop-loss is placed well below the support line and slightly below the Mar 4 wick low at $0.0207. This is a stop loss of 10%. “Since then, the price has increased and is following the ascending support line outlined below:
In response to current market developments, the stop loss can be moved to $0.229. This is below the support line and the May 11 lows. Taking into account last week’s entry point, this stop loss will be placed at the break-even point.
Furthermore, we can see that there is a resistance area at $0.26. In our opinion, this is an optimal place to take partial profits.
Now, let’s take a look at the short-term trading pattern for Binance Coin.
Binance Coin’s Descending Channel
On May 10, the price of Binance Coin reached a low and a high of $18.2 and $19.8 respectively. Since then, it has been trading inside the ascending broadening wedge outlined below:
We can see that the price is trading above the 100- and 200-period moving averages. However, no bullish cross has occurred between them yet.
Furthermore, the RSI has been mirroring price movements and has not created any type of divergence.
Therefore, we do not see a profitable trade setup inside this pattern. A possible short trade setup could be identified if the price keeps increasing close to the resistance line of the wedge. Until then, however, we will not initiate a trade.
Conclusion
To conclude, TRX is trading inside a long-term neutral pattern while BNB is trading inside a bearish one. The technical indicators give a bullish outlook for TRX and a neutral one for BNB. Furthermore, we have initiated a long trade setup for TRX last week, and are currently moving the stop loss higher to a break-even point.
In the case of BNB, the price is also trading inside a short-term ascending broadening wedge. However, the indicators have not yet given a clear indication of where the price is heading.
Therefore, we believe that TRX will see more profitable price fluctuations during the upcoming weeks. While no new trade setups have been initiated for TRX, an adjustment was made in last week’s setup. We are also approaching the first target in which we can take partial profits.
