DXY in 4H timeframehello dear traders
U.S. Dollar Index (DXY) and the potential for a correction over the next month:
Federal Reserve Monetary Policy:
If the Federal Reserve signals a slowdown or pause in its rate hikes, it could put downward pressure on the DXY. Upcoming speeches or FOMC minutes will be key indicators to watch.
U.S. Economic Data:
Weaker-than-expected economic data, such as lower GDP growth, higher unemployment rates, or declining inflation, could suggest a less aggressive Fed policy, leading to a potential correction in the dollar.
Global Economic Trends and Risk Sentiment:
Increased risk appetite in global markets could drive investors toward riskier assets (like equities or emerging market currencies), reducing demand for the dollar as a safe-haven asset.
Geopolitical and International Developments:
Any easing of geopolitical tensions or positive trade agreements between major economies could diminish the dollar’s safe-haven appeal and contribute to a potential correction.
Correlated Markets like Gold and Oil:
Rising prices in gold or oil often correlate with a weaker dollar. If these assets strengthen, it could be a sign of dollar weakness.
In summary, weaker U.S. data or dovish signals from the Fed, combined with a more favorable global economic environment, could increase the likelihood of a DXY correction over the next month.
Beyond Technical Analysis
Gold has started journey towards "All Time High" read caption...Hello everyone, i have prepared this setup share your thoughts in comment section.
The chart i have prepared represents the price action of XAU/USD on a 2-hour timeframe. It illustrates the following technical and fundamental details
1. Trend Analysis:
Gold is trending upwards, as shown by the ascending channel highlighted in blue.
Resistance is marked at the upper boundary near $2,772-$2,776.
The entry point for a potential buy trade is marked at $2,750, with a target near the all-time high. But you can execute trade from a bit above like $2754-56.
2. Support and Stop-Loss Area:
The stop-loss (SL) area is highlighted between $2,730 and $2,727, indicating the price zone where risk management is planned.
Strong support zones are marked in yellow and orange, representing potential bounce areas in case of a retracement.
3. Breakout Scenario:
If gold breaks above the resistance zone, the white and blue arrows depict potential bullish momentum towards new highs. New high will cross 2800.
Geopolitical Context:
Gold is a safe-haven asset and is highly influenced by geopolitical tensions, inflation fears, and uncertainty. Recent global events may have driven the price higher:
Geopolitical Tensions: Increased conflict or economic instability (e.g., in Eastern Europe or the Middle East) could push investors toward gold as a secure store of value.
Inflation Concerns: Rising global inflation due to post-pandemic stimulus measures and supply chain disruptions is another factor supporting gold prices.
Central Bank Policies: Major central banks, such as the Federal Reserve, maintaining dovish policies or slowing interest rate hikes could also be bullish for gold.
Impact of Trump’s Presidency:
Donald Trump's presidency (2017–2021) significantly impacted gold prices due to the following:
Trade Wars: Ongoing U.S.-China trade tensions during his term created market volatility, driving investors to gold.
Geopolitical Risk: His administration’s foreign policies, such as conflicts with Iran and North Korea, heightened geopolitical risk, boosting gold demand.
Economic Policies: Tax cuts and increased fiscal stimulus initially strengthened the U.S. economy and the dollar. However, fears of debt accumulation and inflation later provided support for gold.
Pandemic Response: During the COVID-19 crisis in 2020, gold reached record highs ($2,075 per ounce) as Trump's administration rolled out massive stimulus packages, weakening the dollar.
This chart reflects the current bullish momentum in gold, potentially influenced by ongoing geopolitical risks, economic factors, and inflationary pressures.
Key levels;
buy zones 2750-54 and 2748
Target at 2776,2790,2800
SL at 2730

EURUSD nearing some key resistance Intraday Update: As discussed in the chatroom yesterday evening, the market is ignoring the tariff risks for now and pressing the USD lower across the board. The EURUSD is nearing the spike at the end of Dec at 1.0457, and a continued move higher could see levels back above the 1.0500 level if broken.
Trump’s Memecoin Risks Giving the Industry a Bad Rap. Yes or No?Wait, what happened? The 47th US President last week rolled out his official “meme,” called $TRUMP. Over the weekend, it whipped up a market cap of roughly $20 billion. That’s more than AI server maker Super Micro SMCI or clothing giant H&M HMB . Over the weekend. Now it’s fanning concerns among crypto execs that Trump’s participation could hinder growth and give the market a bad rap. Let’s talk about that.
It’s official! Donald Trump has launched a meme coin — the same ones that make lots of buzz, get tons of attention and may or may not result in froth that quickly evaporates, leaving hopeful buyers holding the bag.
Trump’s token, aptly called “Trump Meme” TRUMPUSDT is now circulating across exchanges. Billions get sloshed around, getting pulled in but then gushed out.
The meme’s valuation soared to $20 billion Sunday morning, flexing an increase of more than 1,000%, or 10X in less than a weekend’s time. Fully diluted valuation hit a staggering $75 billion.
Disbelieving users probably had to wonder whether someone hacked into Trump’s accounts both on X and on his social media platform Truth Social. But it was all legit, coming from the man himself.
“My NEW Official Trump Meme is HERE! It’s time to celebrate everything we stand for: WINNING! Join my very special Trump Community. GET YOUR $TRUMP NOW,” the post said . Oddly, there were some highly specific (and frankly sketchy) bits of text in the Terms and Conditions listed on the token’s website.
The Trump tokens are not an investment, not an investment contract, not a security, and have “nothing to do with any political campaign or any political office or governmental agency.” Still, the Trump Organization is entitled to get revenue “derived from the trading activities” of these memes.
The surprise launch appealed to retail traders who went on a dizzying buying adventure, hoping to ride out the gain train and get a piece of the gift that seemingly kept on giving. Since that $75-per-coin peak, valuation has come down by roughly 50%.
It must be said that 80% of what you see going up is held by Trump and his companies CIC Digital, and a CIC co-owned entity called Fight Fight Fight LLC. (That’s what Trump shouted after he was grazed by a bullet at a rally in July.)
Also, if you decide to participate and you end up holding the bag, the terms and conditions say you won’t be allowed to sue or participate in a class-action lawsuit against the company and indemnify the project against any claims.
Apparently, the meme coin list got a new contender and Dogecoin’s top spot might be challenged.
So much so that some crypto executives have started to frown upon Trump’s crypto participation, who obviously became an overnight crypto billionaire with this controversial launch. The most obvious transgression is the conflict of interest — the man empowered to narrate how markets are valued and regulated (including setting crypto policy) benefits directly from the sale of his own investment product.
A reporter asked Trump to comment on his new endeavor earlier this week.
“Well I don’t know if it benefited. I don’t know where it is. I don’t know much about it other than I launched it,” he said. “I heard it was very successful. I haven’t checked it. Where is it today?”
Trump’s token was overshadowed by his wife’s meme coin. Called Melania MELANIAUSDT , the token also made its way to the top-traded coins but quickly lost momentum and the gains faded.
The launch of the first lady’s token prompted Ryan Selkis, a Trump supporter and ex-CEO of prominent crypto research firm Messari, to chime in, saying whoever advised Trump to go ahead with the projects should be fired.
“1. They don’t know what they’re doing. 2. They cost you a lot of $ and goodwill. 3. They don’t have your interests in mind,” said Selkis in a post on X.
To many, especially the staid supporters of organic growth based on use cases and real-world applications, Trump’s foray into crypto through a meme is a speculative move that gives the industry a bad rap.
“I think people will think meme coins are the foundation of the crypto industry,” said billionaire entrepreneur and crypto investor Mark Cuban. “It’s not. There are real applications that add value.” Cuban added that this launch looks like “a highly manipulated offering.”
The criticism continued to trickle in. “There’s a general level of disgust,” said Michael Gayed, a market analyst. “I do believe this puts into question some of Trump’s credibility when we have a president-elect enrich himself just before inauguration and make a mockery of an entire ecosystem.”
There’s also the other end of the spectrum. A Detroit pastor named Lorenzo Sewell (who gave a speech during Trump’s inauguration) followed in the President’s footsteps and launched his own meme coin.
“I need you to do me a favour and go and get that coin in order for us to accomplish the vision that God has called us to do on earth,” he said in a video online. His token has washed out more than 93% of its value since its trading debut.
What do you think? Is Trump’s crypto participation contributing to more market froth and only fueling the speculative aspect of trading? Or is there a deeper meaning behind? Comment with your thoughts below!
AUDJPY - Long Setup My main trading principle is that the price always moves from swept liquidity levels to untouched liquidity levels.
In particular case we clearly can see the following context: price swept 1D key swing low and left untouched swing high.
But to take more statistically more probable trades we should wait for some type of lower timeframe confirmation, and it this case we can notice sign of strength, so potentially there is a higher probability to see price higher.
Mainly correlated with GBPJPY, so I recommend you to take only one position from these 2 pairs.
Your success is determined solely by your ability to consistently follow the same principles.

Example of explanation of chart analysis and trading strategy
Hello, traders.
If you "Follow", you can always get new information quickly.
Please click "Boost" as well.
Have a nice day today.
-------------------------------------
There was an inquiry asking for detailed information on how to analyze charts and create trading strategies accordingly, so I will take the time to explain it.
Before reading this article, you need a basic understanding of charts.
That is, you need to understand candles and price moving averages.
If you study this first and then read this content, I think you will have some understanding of trading.
---------------------------------------
Whether you are trading spot or futures, marking support and resistance points according to the arrangement of candles on the 1M, 1W, and 1D charts is the first task you need to do before trading.
To do this, you need to understand the arrangement of candles.
Therefore, before using my indicator, it is better to study candles first and understand the arrangement of candles.
When studying candles, it is better not to try to memorize the names or shapes of various patterns.
This is because the overall understanding of candles is important, not the various patterns of candles.
If you study with a book or video, you will be able to understand candles after reading or watching them at least 3 times.
We study charts to trade, not to analyze charts and teach them to others, so we need to study efficiently and save time.
-
If you study candles, you will naturally understand the price moving average.
The indicator corresponding to the price moving average is the MS-Signal indicator.
This MS-Signal indicator consists of the M-Signal indicator and the S-Signal indicator, and the main indicator is the M-Signal indicator.
Therefore, we added the M-Signal indicator of the 1W chart and the M-Signal indicator of the 1M chart to the 1D chart so that we can see the overall trend.
-
You can see the arrangement of the MS-Signal (M-Signal of 1M, 1W, 1D charts) indicators in the example chart.
Currently, since the M-Signal of the 1M chart > the M-Signal of the 1W chart, we can see that it is a reverse array.
If you understand the price moving average, you will understand that we should not trade when it is a reverse array, but when it is a regular array.
Therefore, since the current state of the example chart is a reverse array, it is not suitable for trading.
However, the reason we brought this chart in this state is because the M-Signal indicators of the 1M and 1W charts are converging.
As convergence progresses, it will eventually diverge.
Therefore, since the possibility of price volatility increases, the possibility of capturing the timing for trading increases depending on whether there is support at the support and resistance points.
-
The indicators included in the example chart are drawn as horizontal lines to indicate support and resistance points.
This work performs the same role as the support and resistance points drawn on the 1M, 1W, and 1D charts according to the arrangement of the candles mentioned above.
Therefore, on the 1M, 1W, and 1D charts, horizontal lines are drawn on the indicators to indicate support and resistance points.
You can draw horizontal lines on indicators that are horizontal for at least 3 candles, and if possible, 5 candles.
-
Among the HA-MS indicators, the important indicators are the HA-Low and HA-High indicators.
The HA-Low and HA-High indicators are indicators created for trading on the Heikin-Ashi chart.
Therefore, it is the next most important indicator after the MS-Signal (M-Signal on 1M, 1W, 1D charts) indicator that can tell the trend.
You can create a trading strategy depending on whether there is support near the HA-Low, HA-High indicators.
-
The next most important indicator is the BW(0), BW(100) indicator.
When this indicator is created or touched, it is time to respond in detail.
That is, when you are trading with a trading strategy created from the HA-Low, HA-High indicators, when the BW(0), BW(100) indicators are created or touched, you can choose whether to proceed with a split transaction.
In addition, you can understand the OBV, +100, -100 indicators as response points for split transactions.
Therefore, you do not need to indicate support and resistance points for the OBV, +100, -100 indicators.
However, it is recommended to mark support and resistance points for the HA-Low, HA-High, BW(0), BW(100) indicators.
-
If you look at the price position in the example chart, you can see that it is located in the 0.03347-0.03485 range.
And, the M-Signal indicator of the 1W chart is passing through this range, and the HA-High indicator of the 1W chart is acting as support and resistance.
Therefore, whether there is support near 0.03485 is an important key point.
If support is confirmed near 0.03485, it is a time to buy.
However, since the MS-Signal (M-Signal on the 1D chart) indicator is passing between 0.03485-0.03814, the point to watch is whether the MS-Signal (M-Signal on the 1D chart) indicator can break through upward.
As I mentioned earlier, if the MS-Signal indicator passes, a trend change will occur, so it is significant.
Therefore, in order to turn into a short-term uptrend, it is likely to be supported around 0.03814-0.03982.
Therefore, the first split selling section will be around 0.03814-0.03982.
At this time, whether to sell or hold depends on your investment style and investment period.
-
Since the M-Signal indicator on the 1M chart is passing around 0.04341, it is likely to start when the price is maintained above the M-Signal indicator on the 1M chart in order to turn into a long-term uptrend.
Therefore, the second split selling period will be around the M-Signal indicator on the 1M chart.
This is also something you can choose.
-
An important volume profile section is formed around 0.03038.
Therefore, the 0.03038 point corresponds to a strong support section.
-
(30m chart)
When the time frame chart you are trading is below the 1D chart, it is recommended to activate the 5EMA indicator on the 1D chart.
(I just used the 30m chart as an example. The same principle applies to any time frame chart you usually use.)
This is because there is a high possibility of volatility when the 5EMA of the 1D chart and the M-Signal indicator of the 1M, 1W, and 1D charts are touched.
In other words, you can understand that it plays a certain role of support and resistance.
If it touches the HA-High, BW(100) indicator and falls and falls below the MS-Signal indicator, it will basically touch the HA-Low or BW(0) indicator.
On the other hand, if it touches the HA-Low, BW(0) indicator and rises and rises above the MS-Signal indicator, it will basically touch the HA-High or BW(100) indicator.
However, since it may not do so and may rise or fall in the middle, it is necessary for the support and resistance points drawn on the 1M, 1W, and 1D charts as mentioned earlier.
The support and resistance points drawn on the 1D chart are currently indicated at the 0.03347 point.
Therefore, even if it falls below the MS-Signal indicator, you can understand that there is a possibility of rising again around 0.03347.
Since the 5EMA of the 1D chart and the M-Signal indicator of the 1W chart are passing around 0.03485, we can see that the area around 0.03485 is an important support and resistance zone.
-
Since the StochRSI indicator is currently above 50, we should focus on finding a time to sell.
Since it has fallen below the BW(100) and HA-High indicators, it has fallen too much to start trading with a sell (SHORT) position.
However, if you can respond quickly, you can enter a sell (SHORT) position when it falls from the 0.03411 point where the MS-Signal indicator is passing.
When the StochRSI indicator falls below 50, we should focus on finding a time to buy.
At this time, you can trade based on whether there is support or resistance at the support and resistance points drawn on the 1M, 1W, and 1D charts or around the MS-Signal (M-Signal on the 1M, 1W, and 1D charts), 5EMA, HA-Low, HA-High, BW(0), and BW(100) indicators on the 1D chart.
As mentioned earlier, you should not forget that trading strategies can be created based on whether there is support at the HA-Low and HA-High indicators.
Therefore, if possible, it is recommended to trade based on whether there is support near the HA-High indicator point of 0.03443.
-
Thank you for reading to the end.
I hope you have a successful trade.

Berkshire Hathaway | No More Apple Pie & Bank Bread!No More Apple Pie and Bank Bread | Buffett’s Recipe for Market Caution
Berkshire Hathaway has recently disclosed its earnings amid fluctuating around a $1 trillion valuation. A notable update is its continued reduction of stakes in overvalued assets, including a 20% decrease in holdings of Apple and Bank of America, boosting its cash reserves to $325 billion
Although Warren Buffett himself isn't favoring share buybacks at present, Berkshire Hathaway stands as a compelling investment option
Why Berkshire Hathaway's $325 Billion Cash Pile Signals Market Caution
The company's net earnings remain subject to significant fluctuations due to rules requiring valuation changes of investment holdings. However, there was a slight decline in operating earnings, mainly driven by lower insurance underwriting income. Despite this, that segment is historically volatile, and year over year aka YoY, the company has maintained strong performance.
Yea2date aka YTD, operating earnings have risen over 10%, totaling just under $33 billion compared to just below $29 billion last year. This points to an annualized earnings estimate of approximately $44 billion, implying a price2earnings aka P/E ratio of about 22, without factoring in over $320 billion in cash and significant investment holdings.
Excluding cash and investments, the adjusted P/E ratio is closer to single digits. Share buybacks have paused, reflected in a ~1% decrease in the outstanding shares YoY, signaling Berkshire's assessment of current market valuations.
Segment Highlights
The various business units within Berkshire Hathaway showcase its robust asset base and earning capacity. Insurance underwriting income saw a sharp YoY drop, but other business areas performed strongly. Income from insurance investments remained solid, and BNSF, its railroad subsidiary, also showed strong results despite a double digit YoY decline.
Berkshire Hathaway Energy continues its growth, cementing its position in the utility sector with significant renewable energy ventures. For context, NextEra Energy (NEE), with a market capitalization of $160 billion, posted quarterly earnings around 10% higher.
Berkshire's other controlled and non-controlled businesses contribute over $13 billion annually, underpinning its diversification and consistent earnings performance. This strength across segments underscores its formidable financial health.
Market Context
Currently, market valuations are elevated by historical standards.
Excluding periods of earnings dips, market enthusiasm is exceptionally high, with the S&P 500 P/E ratio nearing 30x, approaching levels last seen in 1999. Buffett and Berkshire appear to view a 3% yield from such a P/E as unattractive, especially when bonds offer higher returns.
The 2008 Playbook
Berkshire's track record of effectively utilizing its cash reserves is notable. Excluding its insurance float, the company still holds $150 billion in cash.
During the 2008 financial crisis, Berkshire leveraged its liquidity for strategic investments in companies like General Electric, Swiss Re, Dow Chemical, and Bank of America, as well as finalizing the full acquisition of BNSF in 2010. This proactive use of capital proved advantageous.
The current strategic sale of assets suggests Berkshire is preparing for potential market downturns. Given high S&P 500 valuations, reallocating part of an S&P 500 position into Berkshire Hathaway could be wise, ensuring exposure to a cash-rich portfolio capable of seizing future opportunities. Meanwhile, Berkshire’s earnings are valued lower than the broader market, potentially minimizing major downturn risks.
Investment Risks
A key risk is that timing the market is inherently challenging, with the adage "time in the market beats timing the market" serving as a caution. If Berkshire's market outlook is incorrect, its $300+ billion in cash could underperform while broader markets remain strong, which would diminish its appeal as an investment.
Final Thoughts
Berkshire Hathaway has taken the bold step of liquidating some of its most significant and priciest holdings, opting to incur capital gains taxes to increase liquidity. This move has bolstered its cash position to $325 billion, $150 billion above its float level. Meanwhile, its strong operational businesses continue generating healthy cash flow.
Drawing on its successful strategies during the 2008 crisis, Berkshire appears to be positioning itself for another downturn amid current high market valuations. We advise investors to consider shifting part of their S&P 500 exposure into Berkshire Hathaway for enhanced diversification and potential benefits in a market correction, long story short Berkshire Hathaway remains a robust investment opportunity but wont make millionaire!

Trading minute impulseOn the minute timeframe of GBPJPY at the moment we have the completion of the impulse formation. If the price continues to move in the direction of the impulse and the support zones do not allow it to overcome the base of the impulse, it may reach the targets 1 and 2. If the price fails to advance in the direction of the momentum and overcomes the support zone at the base of the momentum, it is very likely that the price will move sideways or against the direction of the momentum.
What will be the next trend of EUR/USD ?🔆The EUR/USD pair is being influenced by a number of economic and political factors, leading to significant volatility in recent times.
🔆 Technical Analysis:
The EUR/USD pair is currently in an uptrend, with the price trading above both the 34 EMA and the 89 EMA, suggesting a bullish bias in the short term. The next resistance level is identified at 1.0530 as the 1.618 Fibonacci line intersects the resistance zone; if the price reaches this level, a corrective rally is expected.
🔆 Fundamental Analysis:
A trade war between the US and Europe could push the euro to parity with the US dollar. New tariffs from the US could further weaken the eurozone economy, putting downward pressure on the euro.
The US dollar is expected to maintain its strength against the euro as the US Federal Reserve (Fed) may cut interest rates more gradually than expected as President Trump's policies may increase inflation.
🔆 Conclusion:
The trend of the EUR/USD pair in the coming period will depend on the developments of the above economic and political factors. Forecast Traders should closely monitor key support and resistance levels, along with macroeconomic information and monetary policies from both sides to make appropriate trading decisions.

A buy opportunity is anticipated if the price confirms a bounce from the channel's lower boundary, targeting the midline or upper boundary of the channel.
Key Levels to Watch:
- Entry Zone: Near the channel's lower boundary after confirmation of a bounce.
- Risk Management:
- Stop Loss: Placed below the channel's lower boundary or the recent swing low to manage risk.
- Take Profit: Target the midline or upper boundary of the channel for potential upside movement.
Market Sentiment:
The downward trend channel suggests an overall bearish structure, but a temporary bullish move is possible near the channel's support. Confirmation of a bounce is necessary before entering the trade to ensure alignment with market conditions.
