(ETH) ETHEREUM "Two Options" -- The Red Doorttwo options as proposed in my graph based on the movement of Ethereum. It appears Ethereum has chosen to go through the red door this time around. Or, if it was because of Bitcoin so be it. When people refer to the news and justify financial actions based on those news events I tend to see those associations as flaky at best. The price of crypto was stated based on a large indicator of the TOTAL crypto chart to have a short. When the price fell and at the same time some news was happening, as if news isn't always happening, people have the tendency to associate big news events with the story of cryptocurrency, or whatever. This time around it was some other war. Personally, in my take, Iran was using their drones to prevent further missile attacks by Israel on Palestine. By forcing Israel to defend themselves against the drone attack this wastes many of their missiles in their artillery preventing those missiles used to defend themselves to be used as attack missiles.

Major natural disasters, pandemics, and global events have economic repercussions that can affect both stocks and cryptocurrencies. Investors should evaluate the potential impact of these events onsupply chains, consumer behavior, and investor sentiment.

FX + ECONOMY | EVENT - WEEKLY PREVIEW | KW04 |In today's article, we will go into all the important events,
which are scheduled in the economic calendar, for the next week.
> Calendar week | 04 - - - 23. January 2023 – 28. January 2023
Let's briefly discuss what the listed events mean for your personal trading.
> When you want to trade a currency pair, you should always be careful that you do not accidentally get into an "event".
> These events can end in random volatility, which technical analysis does not respect, and therefore a possible loss.
> A strategy of "Market-Makers" is to liquidate both sides (short | long) to the event and then continue the participated direction.
MONDAY
> EUR | 12:45 p.m. | ECB = President Lagarde - Speak
TUESDAY
> EUR | 03:15 a.m. | PMI = France
> EUR | 03:30 a.m. | PMI = Germany
> EUR | 04:00 a.m. | PMI = Euro-Zone
> GBP | 04:30 a.m. | PMI
> USD | 09:45 a.m. | PMI
> AUZ | 07:30 p.m.| CPI
WEDNESDAY
> CAD | 10:00 a.m. | Bank of Canada
THURSDAY
> USD | 08:30 a.m. | Advance GDP
FRIDAY
> USD | 08:30 a.m. | Core PCE
Wednesday and Friday will certainly be the most volatile.
MARKET INFLUENCE
Each of these dates, leads in the respective currency pair, to high / moderate volatility.
> Events that make the overall market volatile are mostly related to the USD.
= This is due to the fact that the USD has a position as an indirect world currency through global acceptance and thus has significant influence on the other currency pairs / economy.
To use an example to explain the influence of the USD on other currency pairs, let's look at the DXY (USD index).
The DXY is composed of the pairs:
EUR (57.6%), JPY (13.6%), GBP (11.9%), CAD (9.1%), SEC (4.2%) + CHF (3.6%)
When a positive metric is published for the USD = its value rises.
= The pressure on the currencies in the DXY basket increases.
= Thus they are "negatively" valued by traders.
= Sell-off
In summary, the higher the country's opinion on the global economy, the greater impact it takes on the overall market.
> Feel free to share in the comments, about the impact of this week's appointments.
> Sharing your perspective allows each of us to improve.
If this explanation has added value to you, I would be very happy to receive a rating.
Thank you and happy trading!
ZIEL IST DIE AUTARKIE | THE GOAL IS SELF-SUFFICIENCY
The Importance of understanding Internal Energy of the MarketMajor world events & KL Composite Index over 44 years.
Major world events such as
Black Monday : Aug-Dec 1987
US Recession : Aug-Sept 1990
Mexican Financial Crisis : Jan 1994-Jan 1995
Asian Financial Crisis : Feb 1997 – Sept 1998
Dotcom Bubble : Feb 2000 – Apr 2001
Sept 11, 2001
SARS : Apr 2002 – Mar 2003
Global Financial Crisis : Jan 2008 – Oct 2008
European Debt Crisis : Jul – Sept 2011 –
Oil Glut : Oct – Dec 2014
COVID : 2020-2022
Ukraine Crisis : 2022
The major world events as shown in vertical blue columns.
What is of significance is that the occurrences of these major world events are in the golden uptrend channel.
What is the implication?
In my video training course "Buy Low Sell High", I explain that market system has its internal strength and weaknesses and its own "healing energy" to make correction to these negative events and still move forward.
It is like our own human system with its built in immune system that is designed to overcome major diseases.
Hence it is important to study and analyze the Internal Energy of the market system and not be derailed by overlly focus on events.
‼️ Economic calendar week 02.05-06.05 As usual, at the beginning of the month we have a busy week from a fundamental point of view, with presentations of reference rates, NFP, etc. As well, on Monday we have bank holiday on GBP and Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday on JPY, so we can see less volatility on pairs with these currencies. Seems we could see an increase rates on AUD, USD and GBP, but I think we saw bullish price action on these currencies during last weeks and I expect now a retracement. My recommendation is to avoid trading during these news events.
Take care!
AUDUSD bulls attack monthly hurdle on hawkish RBAThe Reserve Bank of Australia’s (RBA) keeping of September tapering on the table, despite covid woes at home, offered over 40 pips of immediate upside to the AUD/USD pair on the announcement. However, the quote remained below a one-month-old horizontal hurdle surrounding 0.7400–7410 and seems to ease of late. Although firmer RSI and RBA’s hawkish title favor AUD/USD bulls to cross the 0.7410 hurdle, 200-SMA near 0.7455-60 adds to the upside barriers before directing the quote to the mid-July top near the 0.7500 round figure.
In a case where the quote steps back from the stated resistance, as it did the last Thursday, 0.7350 may return to the charts. However, any further weakness of the pair will be challenged by a two-week-old rising support line near 0.7330. If at all the AUD/USD bears dominate past 0.7330, the yearly bottom surrounding 0.7290 will be the key before direct the quote towards the October 2020 tops surrounding 0.7245.
EURUSD heads to 1.1880 key resistance ahead of US GDPThe post-Fed rally of EURUSD pokes a two-week-old resistance line as bulls brace for the preliminary figures of the US Q2 GDP, up for publishing later today. While the stimulus news and FOMC constitute a double whammy attack on the US dollar, suggesting the upside of the adjacent hurdle near 1.1860, bulls are likely to remain unconvinced until the quote stays below 1.1880, comprising multiple levels marked since June 22. The same 1.1880 level also forms the breakout of rounding top bullish pattern and the confirmation of the same will not hesitate to challenge the late June’s peak surrounding 1.1975.
Meanwhile, pullback moves can re-test the 1.1800 threshold but the mid-July lows near 1.1770 will challenge any further weakness. Also acting as the downside filter is the monthly bottom close to 1.1750, a break of which will direct EURUSD sellers to the yearly low of 1.1704. It’s worth observing that the pair’s recovery moves reach the key levels but the RSI is also approaching the overbought territory, suggesting another pullback should the data renew USD buying.
Gold recovery remains elusive below $1,810, focus on FedAlthough US dollar weakness ahead of the Fed’s verdict put a bid under gold prices, a confluence of 100 and 50-SMA becomes a tough nut to crack for the bulls around $1,807-08. Even if the gold buyers manage to cross the $1,808, a two-week-old downward sloping trend line near $1,810 will be another hurdle before confirming an upside to the month’s top surrounding $1,835. It’s worth noting that the MACD and RSI do favor the upside momentum but after all, it depends upon the Fed Chairman Jerome Powell and his words.
On the contrary, 50% Fibonacci retracement of late June to mid-July upside near $1,792 could test the metal’s intraday selling in case bears retake the controls post FOMC. Following that, the June 29 swing high near $1,765 can offer an intermediate, a break of which will be a call to the last month’s low near $1,750 and mid-April low near $1,725 to the chart. However, any further weakness past $1,725 will be challenged by the $1,700 psychological magnet before directing the sellers to the yearly low near $1,677. Overall, Fed is likely to reiterate its cautious optimism while keeping the monetary policy unchanged. Though, mentioning tapering is the key for USD bulls, who are inversely correlated to gold.
Interesting events at Bitcoins high & lowsJust playing around with @TradingView
Features - looking at the "all of BTC History" chart - this got me thinking.
What happened in world news and events on the highs and lows? Anything significant or interesting.
The one thing I didn't include was the launch of Ethereum. Which was July 30, 2015, encase your wondering.
Thought this would be interesting to share.
I won't paste links to each article - but used a site called "the week" to pull up historic dates & events.

[FUBO] Iron Condor - the FuboTV Inc EVENT play
Another lazy trade for today, just an event play.
Very risky to holding neutral positions in uptrend, so literally just for a few days on table.
Event plays are usually a "trade and pray" strategy, so I'm not preferring (TastyTrader Bob and Tom like it, but I've sucked many times width them)
In current case I've decided to take the risk.
(1) MurreyMath distances
More than 5 MurreyMath fraction distance (5/8) for break even border, current price almost the middle of it.
I'm judged to secure area 2.5 fraction up, 2.5 fraction down.
(2) Nearest pivot points detecting danger area
Secure level upside is $54, downside: $30.
Inside this I can sleep well. Outside this I'm looking for any kind of minimal profitable exit point.
CONCLUSION: Iron Condor for today event
Buy 1 FUBO April16' 20 put Sell 1 FUBO April16' 25 put
Sell 1 FUBO April16' 60 call Buy 1 FUBO April16' 65 call
Expiry: 45 days
Take profit: after event at the first possible moment.
Risk management: I'm closing the trade immediately - if the daily bar closing outside my strikes - and I'm cutting my loss . (no matter what I'm believing)- usually I'm losing mutch less than my max profit in this case. Danger zone check every day.
TIME TO GET A BAG OF TOMODear Traders,
As you can see in the chart above we have an oversold RSI with a bullish MACD cross.
The price has formed a falling wedge structure that has been recently broken and a confirmation has been made.
It's time to see an upwards movement.
As you probably know there are good fundamentals for tomochain for the end of january and the beginning of february which include:
The mainnet hardfork to update to the latest EVM (31/01)
TomoBridge which will enable TomoChain to support ERC20 tokens (31/01)
TomoP a protocol that allows anonymous transactions (31/01)
LuaSwap which will make TomoChain transactions faster than Ethereum and near to 0 fees. (31/01)
Halving, the rewards will decrease from 250 Tomochain/block to 125. (07/02)
Targets:
TP1: 0.00005604 Satoshis
TP2: 0.00008824 Satoshis
Stop-Loss:
SL: 0.00002650 Satoshis
I wish you the best of luck!
EURJPY H4 - Short SetupEURJPY H4 - Little bit of a relief rally yesterday from our identified support zone, recent H4 candle has closed to break support, potential rejection of weekly key level and retest of that broken zone before possible short continuations, simply support turned to resistance. Very similar to DXY where resistance turned to support.
$TOMI at Breakout of Wedge Pattern + Name Change Expected SoonTracking. Full DD in tagged past charts.
Possible Big Move for BTC between June and early August So i took the fib timezone indicator from our ATH to our recent swing low and dragged it to the Last Swing Low before the initiation of the last bull run and it gave out some interesting results.
Each Time fib managed to almost perfectly correlate with a major price action and also a change in market sentiment.
I was actually quite shocked with this thought it could be a coincidence but while looking through the chart I noticed so many times this indicator managed to be right.
So i noted each change for each different level and placed them on the chart for all to see.
If this FIB trend continues to be correct, we should be seeing another major shift over the Summer months along with something very HUGE during the Fall.
Using this indicator alone i am unable to tell you with confidence rather or not the time events will be positive or negatives but i can tell you that what ever happens will have very noticeable impacts on how the marks decides to move but I will tell you what I'm looking at right now.
Currently what i'm looking at is the ascending trendline in green. This trendline is a leftover from my initial BARR chart on BTC that i will link to that chart here.
In that Chart i stated that if BTC could touch that trendline and make a mini bounce off of it again that that the BARR would become invalidated and that we would continue on a slower grind upward from there.
If price were to consolidate from now to the time that trendine is touched then we may be forming a large bull flag that would shoot us up towards our previous highs at $8500 and if we break through $8500 it will be a confirmed bull market the timing of all that just so happens to be near the next Fib Time Zone. So keep your eyes out for coiling price action up to the trend line and see if the market respects it and bounces. If we dip below it then we might see prices returning to $5000.
This has been a fun TA and an interesting one to verify I look forward to the Summer months to see if this trend continues to validate our indicator here.
