Bullish Outlook for GBP/CAD with Key Level at 1.78160The GBP/CAD pair is expected to move bullishly, targeting the 1.78160 level. On the 1-hour chart, the price has successfully broken out of a descending channel, creating a higher high before retracing. This movement is significant, especially with the RSI indicator reaching overbought levels, suggesting strong upward momentum.
I anticipate that a more favorable entry point would be when the RSI dips below the 50 level, indicating a potential pullback within the ongoing bullish trend. This setup strongly supports the view that the pair will continue its upward movement towards the 1.78160 target. We'll see how the market develops from here.
Oscillators
GBPNZD Bearish DivergenceThe market has responded to a bearish divergence on the 1H chart, leading GBPNZD to pull back from a key resistance zone. After reaching the strong resistance level of 2.12700, the market formed a daily long-tailed bar, signaling a rejection of that level. Given the overall bearish trend and the appearance of a large bearish candle, the market is likely to continue pulling back toward support levels. It may drop further from the resistance zone and potentially break out of the upward channel as it aims to test those support areas. The target is the support level around 2.10500
Golden Hunt with ICT Strategy: Perfect XAU/USD Analysis in the 1Hey everyone! Today, I’m excited to share a fascinating analysis of the XAU/USD pair in the 1-hour timeframe using the ICT strategy. I’ve added a free indicator to the chart that not only identifies swing points but also beautifully connects them with lines. This indicator even marks the days of the week, Fair Value Gaps (FVGs), and includes a 20-period EMA. It’s truly an amazing tool!
What’s more, it has features for displaying Kill Zones, sessions, and Silver Bullet, but I’ve turned those off for now to keep the focus on the essentials.
As you can see, Break of Structure (BOS) points are clearly marked, and I’ve highlighted the areas where the market structure has shifted. Notice how sometimes strong swing highs or lows are "hunted" by a shadow that pierces through, leading to a sharp bearish move afterward. The indicator highlights most of these hunts in red, helping us better anticipate market movements.
For entering trades, I used a simple tool to highlight green zones on the chart. I employed Fibonacci retracement levels of 61.8%, 70.5%, 79%, and 50% to pinpoint key entry areas. Additionally, using a custom method based on standard deviation, I marked potential future price zones with dotted lines.
In summary, this analysis combines advanced ICT techniques with practical tools to give you a clearer view of gold’s movements. I hope these insights help you achieve more successful trades! ✨
Will Bitcoin Repeat? A Theory!I really like using Heikin-Ashi candles, the MACD, and Stochastic RSI to try to find potential tops or bottoms. This can be done on any time frame, but remember: the lower the time frame, the smaller the impact, and vice versa. I used this approach to almost call the bottom in October 2022 and early 2023 (You'll find a Post on that on my X Account)
Theory:
The current market behavior seems eerily similar to the last bull run. During that time, after Bitcoin hit its first "top," it then sharply corrected by about 50%. Bitcoin has already had a 30% correction at the moment, but it may fall another 20%, meaning a price of about $34,000.
Following that correction, in the last bull market, Bitcoin received a strong push to the upside, having roughly 135% growth that, in the end, marked the cycle top. If Bitcoin corrects to $34,000 now and repeats the move, a 135% rise would place it at about $79,000.
When looking at the MACD during the previous bull market, after the first sell off, the averages began to squeeze before taking the final bearish cross. In this process, the Stochastic RSI deep-cooled off, which helped it gather strength for one last push to the upside.
Again, that's only a theory, but it's something worth keeping a close watch on. Nothing is guaranteed.

B/C Correction Down To July Highs??? - GUHere I have GBP/USD on the 4Hr Chart!
Friday gave us a STRONG break through this Area that acted as Support getting Price to its High @ 1.32664 but soon after we see price melt!
I suspect we are looking at a Correction Wave where Price gave us a Lower Low (Point A) @ 1.31672 which Broke Structure, followed by a Lower High (Point B) @ 1.32271 Confirming Downtrend. Based on the Fib Extension Tool, we are given a Range Target of 1.30666 - 1.30287 around the High's of July!
Now with Friday's new Lower Low @ 1.31095, I would like to see Price make a Retracement to the once Support-Turned-Resistance Zone for some potential Selling opportunities!
If we take the Fib Retracement Tool from Friday's Low @ 1.31095 to Friday's High @ 1.31998, We see the Fib Entry Zone lands precisely in the Middle of our Resistance Zone!

JPN225 Drops Back to Correction TerritoryThe benchmark Japanese index experienced a steep decline after the central bank stepped up is tightening efforts at the start of the month, but was able to cover the losses as investors calmed down.
However, the BoJ is likely to raise rates again and along with the Yen’s rebound, JPN225 could face sustained headwinds. The index loses ground this week and falls back to contraction territory, as Nvidia’s slump amidst broader tech fears, spills over to Japan. Key Japanese chip manufacturing equipment companies and major Nikkei constituents like Tokyo Electron and Advantest suffered heavy losses. JPN225 is now exposed to the 38.2% Fibonacci of its recent rebound, which bring back the risk of a near market.
On the other hand the RSI points to oversold conditions, while the stock market’s strength goes beyond monetary policy and weak Yen. Above the 38.2% Fibonacci, JPN225 can push for higher highs (39,204), although sustained advance has a higher degree of difficulty under current conditions.

$SPY September 4, 2024AMEX:SPY September 4, 2024
15 Minutes
AMEX:SPY opened gap down.
Since close was not good in that bar buy was not possible.
I did not short for the day.
I need AMEX:SPY below moving averages 9,21 to short.
That came only around 556 levels with 559 as SL.
So, i was not sure of R:R hence no short.
Now for the day the rise from 518 to 564 has 546 -547 as 38.2% retracement.
It is also 200 averages in 60 minutes.
So, 546-548 is the next target.
Already achieved 549.5 yesterday.
Hence for the fall 564.2 to 549.5 a retrace around 556 - 558 will be a good placed to short today.
Having seen multiple tops near 564 levels i will go long only above 565 levels.
No long today as AMEX:SPY below all moving averages in 15 minutes.

If NVDA falls, How far will it Retrace?? - NVDAHere I have NVDA on the 4 Hr Chart!
Price on NVDA is showing exhaustion in the $126.83 - $133.75 Range, just shy of the Previous Highs in June & July.
This Range is based off the Beginning of what seems to be an Elliot Correction Wave from the Lower Low @ $90.69 followed by our High (Point A) @ $108.8 then our Higher Low (Violation of Structure - Point B) @ $97.53.
Confirmation of Wave comes once Price Broke Point A to Push Higher to Point C where it stalls now!
Now, using the Fibonacci Retracement Tool, we can see that if $130 stands to be our new Higher High, price should be looking to make a Higher Low by Retracing to the Fib Entry Zone between $119.19 - $113.77!
-Once Price confirms the Correction Wave, we see the RSI cross Above 50
-Price is now trading Above 200 EMA
*AREA OF CAUTION*
-Price created quite a Price Gap between $110 - $112 so we could possibly see price make a another 38.2% retracement to Fill The Gap before moving Higher!!

NZD/USD rolling over as dairy rebound soursKiwi is looking toppy after printing a shooting star last Thursday, following the bearish reversal through .62764 with two back-to-back declines before easing lower again today. With RSI (14) breaking its uptrend, bullish momentum is waning. While not confirmed by MACD, the Kiwi looks heavy on the charts. Much will be determined by the price action around .6218, a level that thwarted numerous bullish probes in 2024 up until recently.
If we see the price fall below .6218 and hold there, one potential setup would be to sell the break with a tight stop above the level for protection. On the downside, minor support is located below .6200 and around .6175, although there’s nothing meaningful until .6133 where former downtrend resistance intersects with horizontal resistance at .6133.
From a fundamental perspective, Kiwi remains closely correlated with dairy markets, as shown in the bottom pane with a rolling 20-day correlation with whole milk powder futures of 0.94. Dairy prices remain strongly negatively correlated with moves in the US dollar index, making the Kiwi essentially an inverse play on US dollar movements.
Good luck!

Short was wrong. I was concentrating on Diversion. Missed the fact that my stochastic green bar line was on top. Meaning it was bought on pullback.
So, trade was closed.
I will consider the last rise 557.1 to 564.20. Will enter at retracement 560 levels for long.
But first hurdle is 565.
