Live chart, read the way the lessons teach it

RSI (main, fast). RSI 14 with EMA 9 and WMA 45 drawn on it. A frame is up when RSI came from under 40 and crossed decisively above both (at least 2 points clear — a touch is not a cross), down when it came from over 60 and crossed below both — and in both cases only once the EMA 9 itself has crossed the WMA 45 the same way: RSI is fast and can cross while the trend has not changed, so the averages crossing confirms it. A valid wave keeps running through pullbacks: if RSI crosses back but the averages have not, it is only a pullback. It ends only when RSI crosses back through both averages and the EMA 9 crosses the WMA 45 the other way (not necessarily on the same candle). A wave that ends like that before RSI reached its zone (under 40 for a down wave, over 60 for an up wave) was not a clean wave — the selling (or buying) was absorbed by the frames around it — so the frame reads sideways and the larger frame leads. It also loses validity when RSI is back inside 40–60 and crosses the other way with the averages; a shallow counter-wave that fails before 50 hands the frame back to the wave it interrupted; a counter-wave that sinks into the band and then fails leaves the frame sideways until a new valid wave prints. When RSI tightens into its averages and is about to cross, a big move is close. Only liquid coins (roughly $5M+ traded per day) follow these rules reliably. Lesson 19 →

Wave fuel (⛽). Picture the RSI scale from 10 to 90 as the fuel of a wave. An up wave that starts with RSI under 30 crossing its averages has a full tank; past 60 it starts to burn through the fuel; near 90 the tank is empty (a down wave is the mirror: full near 70–90, empty near 10). A dip from 60 back to 50 inside an up wave is not an empty tank — it is usually a smaller timeframe correcting, and a wave that stops early (before 60–70) usually stops because a smaller frame is out of phase or the larger frame does not allow it, not because it ran out. The four bars next to each RSI read show the tank: 4 green = full, 3 = fuel left, 2 amber = burning (past 60), 1 amber = running low, 1 red = empty.

Inertia (🌀). The course’s four stages: (1) an up wave pushes RSI to 80 or more — buyers overwhelm sellers; (2) RSI crosses down into a correction; (3) a completion wave follows and usually tests or breaks that wave’s high — but only if the correction brought RSI back to about 40–45 (a shallower dip means the frame never reset: any new push is a smaller frame’s wave pulling it along), and only a test if the correction went below 40; (4) if the completion wave builds fresh inertia (RSI ≥ 80 again) the trend is strong and continuing, if not it is weakening. Down waves are the mirror (20 / 60). The outlook and each frame’s reasons show which stage the frame is in and the price level in play.

Averages (slow). Read the same way on price: the MA bundle (EMA 12/26, MA 20/50) tightening = a move being prepared; price breaking above it with the lines fanning up = up; breaking below, fanning down = down; stuck inside = sideways. MA 200 is context only. Lesson 18 →

Structure (HH/HL). Not part of the analysis: it is a small skill for seeing the big picture, not for short-term trading. The chart markers can still be switched on for orientation. Lesson 15 →

Only with the long-term trend. The weekly and daily groups set the direction: in an uptrend the rules look for longs only, in a downtrend for shorts only — the same rules, mirrored — and never both ways. When the weekly has no valid RSI wave the long-term trend is sideways and there is no trade. In the three-year test, dropping the counter-trend trades, mirroring the short rules exactly and sitting out sideways weekly markets turned the losing year into a winning one.

One way in: the pullback. The 4h wave is running with fuel left and a 1h pullback inside it runs out of fuel (1h RSI 45 or below for a long, 55 or above for a short). There must be room to the next 12h resistance of at least 3× the risk — a wave right under a wall is not taken — unless the wall looks breakable: break score 4 of 5 (12h RSI above its EMA9, 4h gap widening, 12h RSI past 60, daily RSI past 60, 4h RSI past 65); measured on 2,166 touches of a 12h resistance over three years, such walls broke 60–70% of the time and price ran 3–4 ATR beyond, against 28% for weak ones. Stop under the 1h pullback low; once the trade is 3R in profit the stop moves to the entry price; the exit reads the 4h fuel gauge. There is no early entry: it tempts FOMO and only works in a very strong uptrend — the rules wait for the pullback in every kind of market.

Fuel and acceleration. The fuel tank (where RSI sits in its run) says how far the wave can still go; the acceleration says whether it can turn yet. Acceleration is the gap between RSI and its two averages: while the gap keeps widening the wave is speeding up and a turn is very unlikely, even with RSI at 60 or 70; when the gap narrows bar after bar the wave is braking; when RSI is back on its EMA9 there is no acceleration left and the wave can turn. Like a fast car, a strong wave needs a long way to stop — so the plan exits only once the 4h gap has closed, not the first time it narrows.

Plan. Hour frames only talk to frames about four times their size: 15m ↔ 1h, 1h ↔ 4h, 4h ↔ 12h/16h, 6h ↔ D1 — the 1h has no pull on the 6h or 12h. Above that the groups read D1 with D2–D6, and W1 with W2/W3/M1. The 1h and the weekly barely know each other, so every read is done in groups. Long-term = W1 with W2 as permission (W3, M1 as longer context). Medium = D1 with D2/D3 as permission. Short-term = 4h with 12h as permission and the 1h as catalyst. In each group the base frame leads if its wave is valid and the permission frame is not against it; a base wave against its permission frame is a correction inside the larger wave; a base with no clear wave, or whose wave has lost validity, no longer decides the trend: step up, and the nearest larger frame that still has a live wave decides the direction.

Direction to trade. The main trend is W1 with D4–D6 agreeing; a daily move against it is a correction. Do not trade against the main trend when D4–D6 side with it, or when the counter-move’s RSI has already reached the usual end zone of a correction (about 40–45 in an up trend, 55–60 in a down trend). Entry only when a 4h wave has just started — RSI across both averages and the EMA 9 across the WMA 45 — with its fuel tank still full or good; if 12h or D1 is already stretched (RSI around 80+, tank nearly empty) it is too late for a new entry: wait for a correction. The trade rides the 4h wave: enter when the 1h pullback inside it is nearly out of fuel (1h RSI 45 or below for a long, 55 or above for a short — in a strong 4h wave the 1h pullback rarely reaches 40), stop under that pullback, and when the 4h tank is nearly empty (4h RSI 70 / 30) get ready to close — but if the push keeps going (inertia) hold on, and close when 4h RSI turns back under its EMA9. Entry and exit read the same fuel gauge; no fixed target. Orders are suggested on BTC, ETH and SOL only; other coins get the reading. A short also needs D1 and 12h to have turned down. The 1h only times the entry. Lesson 21 →

ATR 14 = normal candle range; a stop inside it is a coin flip. Size a stop with this ATR →.
