1. Analysis of LTC/USDT volume from Binance cryptocurrency exchange

The analysis is based on the horizontal volumes data on daily charts from the Binance exchange. The analysis is carried out based on the footprint-profile theory. According to the theory, the direction of the horizontal level with the highest trade volume within a day can indicate the likely direction of the trend. The highest trade volume is the level with the largest number of transactions carried out. That is, it is the level of major market players. Accordingly, if the highest trade volume level goes up, it indicates an upward trend. Otherwise, if the highest trade volume level goes down, it indicates a downward trend. Chaotic movements signal that the market is trading flat.

20.02.21 – the highest horizontal volume level (POC – PointOfControl) = 228

21.02.21 – the highest horizontal volume level (POC – PointOfControl) = 225

The point of control has moved down.The price is below the POC. The market has possibly started correcting sideways. Therefore, one can open both long and short positions.

2. Analysis of 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: to trade only in the direction of a trend. Thus, your trades will have more profit potential with less risk. According to the classic Dow theory, there are three main trends:

long-term

medium-term

short-term

These are the trends you should analyze before entering the market. Now, we take a closer look at these trends.

The long-term trend is the daily trend. In this case, deals are made in the daily time frame and are held for several days. The analysis of the daily trend is made with the help of the 48-period exponential moving average (EMA(48)). If the daily candlestick closes above EMA(48), it will indicate the upward trend. Therefore, you should enter long. If the daily candlestick closes below EMA(48), then it is the downward trend and you should enter short.

The chart shows the upward trend. The price is above EMA(48). That is why you should consider buying the pair.

3. Analysis of medium-term trend

The medium-term trend is the trend on the 4-hour chart (H4). In this case, we will also turn to EMA(48). If the candlestick closes above EMA(48) on the 4-hour chart, it will indicate the upward trend. Thus, you should enter long. Otherwise, if the candlestick closes below EMA(48) on the H4 chart, it will indicate the downward trend. Consequently, you should enter short.

The price is in line with EMA(48). We have a sideways trend. Therefore, one can both open long and short positions.

4. Analysis of short-term trend

A short-term trend is the trend in the H1 time frame. Moreover, it can show an entry point into the market well. We will turn to EMA(48) again. If the candlestick closes above EMA(48) on the H1 chart, it will indicate the upward trend. Thus, you should enter long. Alternatively, if the candlestick closes below EMA(48), it will indicate the downward trend. Consequently, you should enter short.

The price is below EMA(48). We have a short-term downward trend. Thus, you can sell the pair. The long-term, the medium-term, and the short-term trends do not coincide.

5. Japanese candlestick analysis

A classic Japanese candlestick analysis is applied to the daily timeframe. In this particular analysis, we will also look at the daily candlestick.

Thus, we have a black downward daily candlestick. Its low is below the low of the previous candlestick. It is a hammer candlestick pattern heading upward. The price broke through the low of yestarday's candlestick. The sideways movement is highly likely.

6. Conclusion

1. Volume analysis – BUY SELL.
2. Long-term trend – BUY.
3. Medium-term trend – BUY SELL.
4. Short-term trend – SELL.
5. Japanese candlestick analysis – BUY SELL.

General conclusion: On February 22, 2021, one can both sell ang buy the pair.
