COVID19 AND THE VIX -- daily Ichimoku cloud breaksin the recent past, when we see a Ichimoku Cloud break in the VIX ( Volatility S&P 500 Index ) we see a strong acceleration upwards. The most recent example of this was on 13 Feb 2020
Inversely proportional to the VIX , the S&P 500 Index had a significant breakdown, represented on 21 Feb 2020
Since COVID19 outbreak, governments around the world have been scrambling to control their domestic economies by stimulus and monetisation of debt stoking Global Hyperinflation, and now real people are starting to feel the economic effects of Lockdowns and COVID19 travel and border restrictions.
Currently TVC:SPX is entering the cloud, and the VIX is coiling to break through the cloud.
This is true for other Major Indices around the world.
Northern Hemisphere is entering their "winter flu season" and USA has their contentious Presidential Election looming in NOV. This could be shaping up for a BIG BOUT of VOLATILITY....

$4672.50 in 2006 to $6.00 - Huge Demand, Robust EarningsPacific Ethanol, Inc. produces and markets low-carbon renewable fuels and alcohol products in the United States. The company operates in two segments, Production and Marketing. It produces and markets ethanol; and co-products, such as wet and dry distillers grains, wet and dry corn gluten feed, condensed distillers solubles, corn gluten meal, corn germ, corn oil, dried yeast, and CO2, as well as markets ethanol produced by third parties. The company also offers ethanol transportation, storage, and delivery services through third-party service providers.

The company owns and operates nine ethanol production facilities, including four plants located in the Western states of California, Oregon, and Idaho; and five plants in the Midwestern states of Illinois and Nebraska. Pacific Ethanol, Inc. was founded in 2003 and is headquartered in Sacramento, California.
I think this is the beginning of something huge. As I noted, the stock hit a high of $4672.50 in 2006.
Demand for Alcohol products in the United States and around the World is outstripping supply as can be seen in Pacific Ethanol's last earnings report below.
The company continues to pay down its debt too.
August 11, 2020
Shares of Pacific Ethanol (NASDAQ:PEIX) moved higher by 38.29% in after-market trading after the company reported Q2 results. Quarterly Results Earnings per share rose 258.82% over the past year to $0.27, which beat the estimate of ($0.20). Revenue of $212,074,000 beat the estimate of $174,200,000.
This is a pure turnaround play in my opinion with a lot of room to run a lot higher.
Daily Chart is Bullish with most indicators trending up, Bullish
The stock continues to make new 52-week highs.

XAUUSD, 4hr tf, sell on triangle breakout with ichimoku updatedHello my friends,
Today is such a good day for me. I posted about selling XAUSD on September 4th from 1937, price took my sell order and today it was closed in profit
This XAUUSD sell position which i took on September 4th closed with +280 pips profit banking +4% profit as i used 2% risk only.

GBPCHF, daily tf, bulls in control after 3 weeks consolidationHello my friends,
Here is a good setup for GBPCHF pairs, price has failed to closed above 1.2030 resitance since August 3rd. The first time GBPCHF reach it, they got rejected and price then consolidating for 3 weeks. Finally the Friday candle closed above it and i think GBPCHF ready to go higher from this point
There is a chance during Monday, price could go down to retest 1.2030 as a support, this will be our cue to buy GBPCHF on the retest.
I am gonna buy GBPCHF if it come to retest it on Monday.
The nearest resistance is at 1.2200 area, after price breaking above this area it could be a highway until 1.24500
Buy GBPCHF 1.2030
Stop loss 1.1890
Take profit 1 @1.2200
Take profit 2 @1.2450
RR ratio 1:3
Good luck
USDJPY, daily tf, potential shoulders head pattern below kumo(2)Hello everyone,
I am updating my recent USDJPY position taken at 106.40.
I took my first sell position at 25th August 2020 and price just start going my way at Friday. It first went against my position but luckily it never hit my SL so i am still safe.
I've taken partial profit as price hit 105.40 which is +100 pips profit.
Stop loss already moved to entry and now i will hold this pair for next TP at 104.00
I am actually quite interested to add more sell position but tomorrow will be monthly candle closing so i will hold it until September.
Good luck to those who sell USDJPY with me
GBPCAD Possible LongPossible Golden TK Cross on daily timeframe may send this pair flying. My entry point was a bit risky due to the bearish cross on the daily but this pair found some good support off the weekly level (touched TK on the weekly and bounced right up). Given that, I found a good entry point on the 4hr timeframe that allowed me to have great RR ratio. The momentum of the bounce has this price almost ready for a golden cross.
If we follow the momentum on this pair, the golden cross on the daily timeframe may yield a bullish golden cross on the weekly level pushing this pair to higher levels. If this occurs, the weekly levels of .8400 could be possible. This would coincide with the monthly bullish cross, retest of both Kijun Sen and Tenkan Sen to the upside.
Entry: .73586
Stop: .7300
