Horizontal Channel
A price pattern in which prices move sideways between two nearly parallel horizontal lines, called resistance above and support below, creating a sideways range without a clear trend. Also called a trading range, rectangle or conso zone.
Channels form when buying and selling interest is more or less equal and neither side has enough conviction to push the price outside of the established boundaries. Depending on the time frame and market, the pattern can last for days, weeks, months or more.
Two methods are applied. Range traders buy at support and sell at resistance, profiting from the oscillation. Breakout traders look for a clear move beyond one of the boundaries as a sign that the balance has shifted. False breakouts, in which a price briefly breaks through a boundary and then reverses, are common and often catch out breakout traders.
Example: EUR/USD is oscillating between 1.0800 and 1.1000 for a couple of months. A range trader buys around 1.0820 and sells around 1.0980 collecting the oscillation. A breakout trader waits. When EUR/USD finally closes above 1.1000 on high volume, the breakout trader goes long and targets a measured move equal to the height of the channel above the breakout level.
Horizontal spread
A type of options spread that involves buying and selling options with the same expiration date but different strike prices.
Hot IPO
An initial public offering (IPO) that generates a high level of interest from investors and often experiences a significant increase in price on its first day of trading.
Hot Potato Trading
A market microstructure phenomenon in which a large position is rapidly passed sequentially from dealer to dealer, each holding the unwanted inventory for a short period and then immediately passing it on to the next player. This redistribution in sequence produces a trading volume that is an order of magnitude larger than the original transaction that started the chain.
When a big institutional order comes into the market, the dealer who gets it takes it into inventory. Then immediately tries to dump it on other dealers, who do the same. Every turn creates more volume. The multiplier means that reported volume around a large order can be multiples of the original notional size.
Hot potato trading is most visible in FX interdealer markets and helps explain why FX trading volumes are so much larger than the underlying economic flows they serve.
Example: A central bank conducts a large FX intervention, selling domestic currency to purchase dollars. The primary dealing bank takes the flow and immediately redistributes inventory through the interdealer market. Further, each successive dealer passes it on. When the position is fully distributed, the reported volume attributable to the single intervention is multiples of the original transaction size. The hot potato multiplier generates volume far in excess of the underlying policy action.
Hot Storage
A method of storing cryptocurrency assets or private keys on a system connected to the internet, which allows immediate access for transactions but is also vulnerable to online security. Unlike cold storage, which is entirely offline storage of keys.
Hot storage is used by exchanges, custodians and active traders, because cryptocurrency transactions require accessible keys. You can’t send money as quickly from an offline device. Sophisticated operators keep the bulk of their assets in cold storage, and only the portion needed for operational liquidity in hot storage.
Hot storage is disproportionately targeted by online hacks, malware, phishing and exchange collapses. The history of failed cryptocurrency exchanges often reads as a story of exploited hot wallet vulnerabilities, sometimes with catastrophic consequences.
Example: A cryptocurrency exchange keeps 95% of customer assets in cold storage, and 5% in hot wallets for daily withdrawals. In the case of a security breach, the attacker only has access to the hot wallet, 5% of assets rather than 100%. The calculated cold-to-hot ratio is a risk management decision that determines what is at stake in the event the online infrastructure is compromised at any point.
Hot Wallet
A cryptocurrency wallet that stores private keys on an internet connected device, such as a smartphone, desktop app, browser extension or exchange account. Hot wallets allow instant transactions without the need for a physical hardware device, and are the main interface for active trading, DeFi participation and daily crypto use.
The security tradeoff is high. Because the private key is stored on a device that is connected to the internet, it is susceptible to being accessed by remote attackers, malware, phishing, and clipboard hijacking. Cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed. If a private key is compromised, the loss is permanent and cannot be reversed.
The best practice is to only keep what you need for near-term activity in a hot wallet and keep long-term holdings in cold storage, similar to keeping a small amount of cash in a wallet while keeping your savings elsewhere.
Example: A DeFi trader everyday uses hot wallet in form of browser extension for approving swaps, providing liquidity, and claiming rewards. Convenience is critical and active protocol participation. Most holdings remain in a hardware wallet, funds are moved to the hot wallet only for active use and returned to cold storage after each session, minimizing the attack window to the active trading period only.
