it is clear longs have been added.
Expectations based on the consolidation:
Technicals:
20month + consolidation of the pair ranging from 1.00 to 0.93 - now the price has broken the distribution
Weekly demand zone - however, the demand has previous touches this is the so the chances of a breakthrough from the strong safehaven of the CHF is a likelihood.
Looking at the VIX - we can see this increasing by a large amount first targets are 40.00
DXY the dollar is weakening to a 95.2 lows - however the buying of this at the lows will produce huge rewards - the lows of 82 are to be tested.
Looking at Russell and SPY has the gap to fill to $340.00 per share , is this sustainable growth which is being propped up - with earnings quarter now in play, we will see those numbers finally provide profit targets either severely missed or the few will beat earnings .
Nasdaq monthly close will be a bearish hammer unless bulls keep the 10,600 supply intact.
Fundamentals:
US election rallies before taking place at the end of the year with campaigning -
We have NFP numbers showing millions return to work.. but also high unemployment still looming.
Trade war with China, Hong Kong unfolding with US responding
High figures in multiple states which are concerns for large communities- record numbers still being released
Fiscal intervention in July, August for stimulus.. constant printing money is not good for the economy.
US tech stocks have seen the highest returns and zero confirmation by Dow30 and S&P following suit. - will this last? no.. billionaires just adding wealth, SME businesses not receiving the correct funding at all..
Dow 30 is in a fragile state and desperate to keep pushing higher but limited upside will cause a steep decline - refer to Dow chart.. around 27,000 is a good point for a previous monthly high but it may fall over at 28000 tops.
Crippling 1trillion money printing exercise to be released to prop up false growth. enter sovereign debt crsis - printing all this money is just beyond words. With having a weak dollar and inflation created - the dollar will be out of favour.

FTSE 100 - short as in 50-61.8% ratio. Hello analysts and traders -
Looking at the FTSE100 - it is time to sell? We think yes - we have monitored this on private charts but now it is time show a public view and to close some longs and begin to hedge and close out final longs.
Have you noticed a pattern?
All indexes have had Vshaped recoveries - however is it sustainable? Nope.
With a lot of the companies on the FTSE stock exchange being foreign owned on multiple exchanges - it is clear that these giants will see a poor performance coming.
Technicals -
weak trend line which saw a fakeout and retest on our orginial trendline - but this was now corrected.
Now we move sideways around the 50%.
Taking the impulse from the highs to the lows March end.
We have a very poor trend line which is a correction rising channel - but as tailed off.
UK sectors - will see large outflows with the FTSE supply and lower high formed - means the sentiment is sour.
The UK has a dead cat bounce , similar to S&P, Nasdaq, and Dax.
VIX and Gold will be the strongest gainers where money printing and inflation occurs. .
Fundamentals
Brexit in play with a little chance of a deal and the stimulus package which the UK provided to citizens is clever to many to provide companies with the 20% pay gap, however many people are still not in work and the sentiment of the government finding ways to prevent debt to tip over 100% will become a real issue.
Brexit again, EU stimulus package for loans and grants is another poor decision - with many countries affected in crippling ways, Southern Europe, Eastern Europe also and western countries e.g. Scandinavian, Netherlands all not wishing this would go ahead.
Germany need the stimulus to keep on top of the EU. Germany has become the power of EU since Euro inception.
UK assets - will be reduced to losses without trade deals from the EU, USA and Canadian, swiss or singaporean style deal..

US 10 BondsThe US 10 Year Bond is probably the most watched metric used to determine the health of the markets. A drop in yields denotes fear and all risk assets are being sold off. The current chart for the 10 Year Bond looks pretty ugly, but it might make the bears quite happy. We are in a giant descending triangle. The formation within the triangle is a very ugly topping pattern.
The chart below is the price action of the 10 Year Bond and it is even more defined and clear. We are approaching the end of the formation.
Currently we stand at the edge and a single big red day may mean a continuation of the down trend. Oil and stocks seem to be topping or at meaningful resistance. Does this mean an imminent drop? No. I am no bear and I frankly don't care which way the markets go, but caution is very much advised. A daily close past the respective resistance/support lines will be a giant red flag for risk assets. Precious metals will likely also drop in such a situation as they have been trading similarly to stocks. However, the drop will likely be far less severe than the last one.
This is not trading advice, but purely my personal opinion.
EUR/JPY Short Hello traders !
I have this trade for you, on higher time frames, daily and weelky we are on a down trend, using this information and combining with that highlighted zone on the chart we discover a zone of resistence.
We have also a risk on sentiment on the market that give us an extra pro argument to take this short.
We can get 3+ R/R that is nice for us !
You can enter in this trade right now and put your SL at 124.150, yout TP at 123.450 and wait to make money !
Also during nights and when Sydney and Tokyo will open up theyr markets and New York will close the market, during this time this pair is losing some price ! use that wisely !
Have a good night !
GBP AUD - long term buys - impulse into the range againHello traders and analysts,
We have an update to our GBP AUD trading range - price is still very much ranging but we have managed to yet again catch a trade to the upside whilst still hedging the downside movements.
Over the end of last week, we saw the Aussie get stronger but was not enough to break through to 1.78 area. so the demand zone still stands and the range is in play and active.

- we can see the trend beginning to add long positions to correct - this has now occurred.
- we have made lower lows and lower highs- showing the correction
- now in a consolidation zone with some great wicks formed and a reversal to the upside - this has been boosted by GBP Tuesday as of writing.
-AUD USD ranging market looking to break 0.70 for upside strength.
-Large downside gap to fall to if price looks to create a new low structure in bearish confluence and momentum trading.
- COT report in favour of AUD however, risk off will shift sentiment.
Fundamentals
Aussie is a commodity currency so is highly affected with exports of natural resources, Gold , Oil , Grains, Copper etc.
Victoria lockdown has caused issues for the restart of the border openings
USD outlook affects the progress of strength for Australia.
Coronavirus within the US sees an affect on the economy for the US as a result affects directly Australia where the index correlates.
USD sees 1Trillion package for stimulus package.

GA trading range update - short near term, still longHello traders and analysts,
We have an update to our GBP AUD trading range - price is still very much ranging but we have managed to yet again catch a trade to the upside whilst still hedging the downside movements. We added a new sell position in order to protect longs, keep in mind this is risky - but until price shows a break of the range of clear downside movements. This accumulation range will build up a big move up or down.

US30 (H1) Price today has rejected off strong resistance at the top (blue zone), where a lot of bearish pressure occurred to break price below support structure. Price is now pulling back to the previous support where I will be looking for a new lower high / retest of broken support as new resistance to be made. Looking left, you can see how powerful moves occurred off this level in the past, & may do the same again now.

ridethepig | Delights and Torments📍 By now I am sure you all have grasped the basic premise: from the very start of the March dead cat bounce we are calling bluff and looking to play the fade, fighting the Fed does work on occasion despite the rumours, and lastly have formed enough energy after this quarter for a huge swing down in global equities as Long bonds complete the cycle.
Most recessions typically take 5 Quarters to play out, with the study of history it is not a bad thing to introduce one or two of those five quarters are retracements to introduce concepts of the trap. One must act in their best interest, recognise straightaway that this is a game of risk flows and stimulus which are both possible and likely via combinations of further lockdowns and coordinated CB intervention.
The only thing to result from all these demonstrations will be a massive breakup in Gold: the last three iterations have been natural; of course all exclusively live on tradingview. How can we continue to load?
📌 => Delights and Torments of Adding to Swing Positions
The typical retail error is over committing in size to positions; of course the fact that the first three entries are all sitting heavy in profit we are entitled to an ideal privilege. For, me the breakup is an active confirmation of momentum in the spirit of risk via Covid , Brexit and the pending Sovereign Debt Crisis.
Measures like this cannot be left out. Event risk must be taken and played with. Quite naturally, these bear character and influence. There is cause for hurry to occupy the $1,900 target within a few days and weeks. A journey where we can seek to settle and thus take profits before reloading without any effort for $2,000 and beyond in 2021. A huge economic shock... with VIX still sitting above Lehmen levels try as you may to believe this is a V shape recovery... I am not buying it.
As usual thanks for keeping the feedback coming 👍 or 👎

GBPJPY bearish continuation (100+ pips opportunity)Pound, unlike other currencies that enjoy appreciation vs safe havens under times of sentiment improvement and risk assets bull market has other economical and fundamental problems. Still, the big issue is coronavirus but Brexit uncertainties are weighing on Pound heavily. BOE didn't change rates but left the same as before, plus adding some more stimulus which markets didn't 'cheer' as enough questioning BOE's support to the economy.
JPY appreciated the most last week vs majors and on secular performance as well on the latest Coronavirus fears. Indices and metals were lower as well giving risk-off signals toward the investors.
GBP is still the best candidate to depreciate vs other currencies, but given the mentioned sentiment fact safe havens might hurt Pound more than risk-on currencies. As June is coming near its end sentiment shift might stay for a while and further corrections could keep ongoing.
Technically this pair is bearish from higher timeframes (looking from monthly, weekly, daily) and broke its key near term support levels.
131-133 range might be in-play if we form support on 131, but even lower levels like 130-129 are not excluded due to strong momentum at the moment.
IDEAS:
Any pullback towards 133 as long as the price stays under and doesn't close green daily candle above is a selling opportunity. The best way to enter a sell would be to wait this pullback under these circumstances and enter on last known support breakout. I consider this the safest way to enter the continuation trend market.
By doing it this way you simply eliminate the risk of fakeouts, early entries, and the most important counter-trend trap (bull traps).
Trade at your own risk!
USDCAD: possible long opportunityUSDCAD is breaking the trendline formed since the beginning of this week.
On the chart you can see some support/resistance areas + RSI divergence + price above all moving averages and not too far away...
Stocks and oil are under pressure, thus risk-off is favorable for USD bulls.
Another USD long already opened.
Entering the position around 1.3560 (current level) with 1.3780 T/P and 1.35 S/L provides decent R:R=3.
Wait for confirmation and relevant price action on the lower time-frame before entering the position.
