Titan 1H: Wave (iv) Pullback Before One More Push?Titan appears to have completed a strong impulsive move into wave (iii), followed by early signs of a corrective pullback. The recent decline looks corrective so far, suggesting wave (iv) may be unfolding. The ideal retracement zone lies between ₹4,193–₹4,135 (0.382–0.5 Fibonacci zone) . If price holds this region and forms a bullish reversal pattern, wave (v) could extend beyond ₹4,380+ . However, a decisive break below ₹4,135 would weaken this count and open the door for a deeper correction. Structure remains bullish for now — but confirmation must come from price action inside the buy zone. Key Focus: Watch how price behaves near ₹4,150.

Short setup on Oberoi Realty- Setup: Price has entered a strong supply zone that aligns with the weekly EMA 21, 50 and a broader weekly supply zone, creating confluence for potential rejection. - Entry: Short positions initiated near the supply zone. - Stop Loss: Placed just above the supply zone to protect against invalidation. - Target: First target at ₹1,516.20, with scope to trail further if momentum continues. - Volume Profile: A notable volume node adds weight to the rejection thesis. - Structure: Prior pivot levels have already been broken, signaling weakness and validating bearish bias. 📌 Bias: Bearish continuation expected as long as price respects the supply zone

Swing High and Swing Low 🧭 Overview Swing Highs and Swing Lows are fundamental concepts used to understand market structure, trend direction, and key reaction zones. By identifying where price makes temporary tops and bottoms, traders can better interpret momentum, structure shifts, and areas of potential support or resistance. ⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻ 📌 Swing High A Swing High forms when a candle’s high is higher than the highs of surrounding candles on both the left and right sides. It represents a local price peak, where buying pressure weakens and selling pressure begins to appear. ⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻ 📌 Swing Low A Swing Low forms when a candle’s low is lower than the lows of surrounding candles on both the left and right sides. It represents a local price bottom, where selling pressure weakens and buying interest starts to emerge. ⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻ 🔑 Key Points • Confirmation Delay: Swing points are confirmed only after the required right bars are formed . • Market Structure: Swing highs and lows define trend direction . • Break of Structure: Price breaking a prior swing high or swing low signals a potential structure shift. • Support & Resistance: Swing lows often act as support, and swing highs often act as resistance. • Reversal Zones: Swing points frequently mark areas of price rejection. • Noise Filtering: Left and right bar logic helps filter minor price noise. • Higher Timeframe Reliability: Swing points are more reliable on higher timeframes. • Context, Not Signals: Swing points provide market context and should be used with confirmation tools. ⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻ 📊 Chart Explanation On the chart, swing highs are marked where price creates a higher high relative to neighboring candles, while swing lows are marked where price creates a lower low. The left bars represent candles formed before the swing candle, and the right bars represent candles formed after it. Only when both sides are completed is the swing point confirmed, making it a reliable reference for structure and trend analysis. ⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻ 🟢 Summary Swing High = Local price top Swing Low = Local price bottom Swings define market structure, trend bias, and reaction levels Confirmation comes after, not during, formation ⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻ 👀 Observations • Frequent swings suggest strong momentum. • Wider spacing between swings indicates consolidation. • Breaks of major swing points often lead to strong directional moves. • Swing points align well with support/resistance and price-action strategies. ⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻ 🏁 Conclusion Swing Highs and Swing Lows are essential tools for reading price action objectively. They help traders understand where the market has reacted in the past and how structure evolves over time. When combined with confirmation and higher-timeframe context, swing analysis becomes a powerful foundation for disciplined trading decisions. ⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻ ⚠️ Disclaimer 📘 For educational purposes only 🙅 Not SEBI registered ❌ Not a buy/sell recommendation 🧠 Shared purely for learning and pattern understanding 📊 Not Financial Advice

Bullish Reversal Setup - Simple & Practical GuideIntroduction to the Setup In this educational post, we will discover a low-risk bullish reversal setup, We all know that markets are dynamic & getting more and more efficient, and in such conditions, we also need to take a dynamic approach to the markets in different situations, you can't have a edge if you stick to only one setup in every market situation. For Example If you are a breakout trader then you will only look range breakouts but the current market situation is kind of end phase of A correction. So there you won't find stocks with good ranges building up for breakout At that point You either will have bad entries or either you need to wait for the range to build. But here let's say you have another setup of reversal trading then you can find many good entries with low risk. This setup a combination of price action and moving averages, Let's explore great setup in detail. 1. You need to identify the The trend 👉🏻Market was already in an uptrend. 👉🏻Higher highs and higher lows were present earlier. Once you have identified a uptrend then you are ready to move to the second step. 2. Correction Phase – Healthy Pullback, Not Breakdown 👉🏻Price made a deep correction from the top. 👉🏻This correction came into the EMA support area. 👉🏻No panic selling, no long red candles exploding downward. A correction should show signs of weakness when it reaches into 3rd step. 3. The Demand Zone 👉🏻 You need to find a area on the left side of chart (in uptrend) from where Massive up move has started. 👉🏻 On the chart you will find we have marked a rectangle box in blue color starting from the previous higher area, From this point the price has good up move Hence it's a demand zone. 👉🏻 When falling price reaches this area the price should react by giving wicks from below in a candle or the size falling candle should reduce or some indecision candle form like Doji, spinning top etc. 4. Demand Zone Marking 👉 On the higher low you area you will find range candle just before the upmove bursts so that candle is used to mark the demand zone 5.EMA + Demand Zone = Support Cluster 👉Price reacts exactly where EMA support and demand zone overlap. 👉This zone is where buyers previously stepped in. 👉Market is basically saying: “This area still matters.” ⭐️ One support is weak. Multiple supports together are strong. 6. Holding demand zone 👉🏻After touching demand, price does NOT make a lower low. 👉🏻Instead, it forms a higher low. 👉🏻This is the first real signal that sellers are losing control. 7. Entry Action 👉🏻 Usually when the price hit demand zone and it forms few bullish candles, it tries to retest the demand zone once again but this time it reverses a little above from demand zone at that time you need to act and place your buys. 8. Setting The Stoploss 👉🏻 The stop loss is below the demand zone, If the demand zone fails to hold the prize then you will get a very early exit, Usually these kind of entries have 1% to 2% of stop loss because we do not want to trade any demand zone which is bigger than 2% 9. The Reward 👉🏻 In a reversal setup you at least need to maintain 1:2 risk to reward ratio. 👉🏻 Pay attention last Higher High Zone From where this correction has started That point will be called as a supply zone and there also you will find range bar just the starting of down move so that supply zone is the maximum target that you need to aim for. 👉🏻 Make sure that the last supply zone is not too near from your entry you need to give price some room to make movements. Practice Time - With Live Examples🗒 This is HOSE:TVS motor 1h chart and we have applied a 200 EMA. First you will find a very good uptrend then a pullback that has stopped for the first time just above 200 EMA and then it gave a very good high making new swing high then it corrected down into the last reversal area which we have marked as a demand zone and there 200 EMA is also acting as a support so we have a very good cluster of supports there, At that time you will strike and place your buy orders. I hope you have a good Clarity on this Setup, simple and actionable with a good price action understanding.
