SHAUSDT chart sums up 2 of my favorite chart patterns...Double bottoms with wedge breakouts are always potent patterns to trade IMHO. This one looks really good. One can wait for another leg down before looking for a buy signal but today's candle looks like it will be a nice bullish candle which can be a buy signal too (better to wait for the day's close). First target if price rallies from here is the wedge high or the double-bottom neckline. We then see if market breaks the neckline for a measured move up.

SILVER Buy Setup!Hello everyone, if you like the idea, do not forget to support with a like and follow. on DAILY: SILVER is sitting around strong demand in green so we will be looking for buy setups on lower timeframes. on H1: SILVER is forming a trendline in red, but it is not valid yet, so we will be waiting for a third swing to form around it to consider it valid. Trigger: Waiting for a momentum candle close above the gray area to buy. and until the buy is activated, this one would be overall bearish. and as price approaches the upper blue resistance, we will be looking for sell setups on lower timeframes. Good luck!

Buy Idea: GBPCHF analysis for 2021On high possibility of a good Brexil Deal and COVID-19 vaccine roll-out around the world, it will be easier for the Cable to gain strength against the Swiss Franc, a safe haven currency. However, a 0.236 fibonacci level resistance of the previous 5-YEAR bearish run prevents the medium-term bulls from taking control. The level is also a 0.5 Fibonacci level resistance from a bear drop since last year. A breach of this zone will open up the 2020 Highs once more.

Short on Pullback & Fundamental Update on JPYTechnicals: -Respectable descending TL, pullback for a retest expected -0.618 fib retracement -Previous support now acting as resistance -MA50 supporting the bearish trend very well with further downside expectancy Fundamentals: Investors started moving their money into "safe haven" currencies (such as the USD & JPY) due to the upcoming election, the fiscal stimulus talks, and the recent European lockdowns. With so much uncertainty across the board, the safest option we have is to continue shorting currency pairs trading against USD & JPY, hence one of the reasons for shorting EURJPY.

Weekly Market recap 5: Still at the crossroads of the sentimentsWhere we are, and "if-thens" Since the last week, the sentiment hasn't changed too dramatically, looking at the technical picture of DXY, I still see it as a range in a medium-term. Although, DXY crept down, closer to the "orange" line of defence (see the orange long-term trendline). Along with the stabilizing S&P500 index (The stock index has had the classic negative correlation with the DXY since the crash in March), DXY gives me reasons to have a short-term bearish bias, hence likely transition to risk appetite. If DXY closes below the orange trendline (around 92.2), it will be a strong sign of the beginning of a bearish market in USD. The last line of defence is around 91.7 (Sep 1 low). On the contrary, if DXY manages to close above the long-term trendline of the downtrend which started in March, I'd consider buying USD. I would need additional confirmations of course, as it is still a range market. Such confirmations may include reaching 94.00 level. The highlighters of sentiments A)If we bet on risk Say DXY would continue the downtrend, and we enter the risk appetite sentiment. What do we short USD against? Let's look at the most common risk duet of AUD and NZD (see the AUDNZD chart). If you zoom out a bit, the first thing you notice is the range, gradually descending channel. It tells us that AUD has been weaker in the long term and it's better to be long NZD in general. MA(100) is playing the role of the "mean" here. For short-term trading, it's nice to take into account how far the pair is from the mean. A good AUD-short would be after the candle reversal pattern (I marked the last one with the grey area) was formed near the upper border of the channel. Generally speaking, the further AUDNZD from the mean, the clearer it is what to buy to ride the risk appetite sentiment. B) If we bet on safe-havens Look at the long-term chart of USDJPY. USD has been pressured since 2015. Therefore I'd prefer going long JPY if risk aversion activates. However, I may still consider buying USD if USDJPY breaks the 5 years descending trendline. Summing up Eventually, follow the hints of DXY and then choose the most diverged currencies by their relative strength or weakness. For example, if risk aversion starts, I'd focus on shorting the weakest one (most likely USD) against relatively strongest one (let's say NZD). Adjust it to the short-term sentiments of European currencies and CAD, and you have a road map to find numerous additional setups.

Head and shoulders may be formingI'm expecting DXY strength in the next few days with stimulus hopes before elections in the US fall. The YM1!, NQ1! & ES1! are struggling to hold on to a critical support level and if they breach the supports, further downside will lead for more DXY demand ES1! -> YM1! - > NQ1! -> Parts of Europe are heading for lockdowns with some countries have already implemented lockdowns. The demand for the oil linked currency will be low as movement becomes more restricted.

USDJPY to Range before Further DownsideUSDJPY fell last week after rejection from a 3-month falling trendline but found support just above 105. The yen has gained across all major peers amid growing uncertainties due to the pandemic and political turmoil in the US and Eurozone such as the US election and the Brexit talk. However, the dollar rose too on safe-haven demand which therefore causing USDJPY to stuck in a range. However, the price has reflected that the yen will eventually strengthen against the dollar ever since the pandemic broke out. We expect the market to rebound a little higher towards the 105.6 - 105.8 region before it provides more downside movement.

FX Update: USD joins JPY in traditional safe haven roleSummary: With risk sentiment slipping into a more profound funk to start the week, the yen continues to bash its was stronger against every other currency, but the USD has changed course and is finally waking up to its role as a fellow safe haven when global risk assets are on the defensive. One key driver besides the COVID-19 resurgence is the sudden further escalation of the US political tensions over the death of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, which could threaten the next round of stimulus. Trading focus: JPY strength is not just about USDJPY anymore, as all JPY crosses head south and the USD starts to play second fiddle more loudly as safe haven in non-JPY crosses. The Friday action was rather confounding relative to historic patterns, as the weakening risk sentiment into the close of US trading for the week continue to drive the JPY stronger across the board – no big surprise there – but failed to register much at all in the smaller currencies’ fortunes against the US dollar. An odd-ball development like the ongoing USDZAR collapse late in the week was only modestly reversed on Friday. Perhaps the thinking was that as long as weak risk sentiment is mostly limited to the bubbly US markets, the volatility was actually USD-indifferent or even USD- negative at the margin. Also in the mix last week was the long term takeaway from the FOMC’s new Average Inflation Targeting regime, which is profoundly USD-bearish for the long term, assuming that inflation comes roaring back in the US and the Fed is slow to respond as long as unemployment is high (with the overriding assumption that US negative real rates would be worse than elsewhere in this AIT regime). But the here and now of risk-on and risk-off can’t wait for long term implications rolled out by the Fed last week, it appears. And what we are seeing this morning is a deleveraging move that is suddenly far more global in nature, with especially European equity markets off to an ugly lurch lower to start the week. So the JPY continues stronger here, but the USD has moved back to the strong side against everything else – early “days” yet for the move, but we’ll watch the 1.1750 area again in EURUSD and, for example, 1.3250 in USDCAD and the 0.7200 area in AUDUSD for signs that the USD safe haven bid is coming back in, regardless whether USDJPY continues trading lower toward the next major support zone into 100.00. The implications of more USD strength and USDJPY pushing to 100.00 are obvious for key JPY crosses – EURJPY, AUDJPY and as we look at below, GBPJPY. Chart: GBPJPY Rolling two developments into one here, as an ugly weakening in global risk sentiment, with Europe finally waking up to the weakness shown in the US last week, has the JPY bashing its way stronger across the board, accelerating the GBPJPY sell-off. The pair now looks in full capitulation mode and could be set for a test of the 130.00 area again if some new Brexit news doesn’t shift sentiment. The UK, and London in particular, is at risk of new partial virus-related shutdowns and the negative rates talk from the BoE last week seems to have created a more negative focus that the first positive signs from Brexit talks were unable to offset. US political situation somehow just got more tense, possibly blocking path to new stimulus round – This could be another source of the US market’s weakness this week. Trump appeared ready to move on new stimulus measures last week, but the death of liberal Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg on Friday has supercharged the already hyper-partisan atmosphere as Trump and Senate Republicans are moving to quickly nominate and approve Ginsburg’s replacement before the election (court nominees only require a majority approval in the Senate, which is currently controlled 53-47 by Republicans). This has Democrats hopping mad after a Republican majority Senate frustrated Obama’s attempt to nominate a replacement for conservative justice Scalia who died more than eight months before the 2016 election. The situation bears close watching. The G-10 rundown, express edition USD – As noted above, the USD showing sigs of reverting to its role as a safe haven and brushing off last week’s post-FOMC meeting move. EUR – the FT reports on ECB looking a major overhaul of its APP, which is likely to mean more size and flexibility in purchases (read: against former capital key and other rules – sure to eventually see more German/core resistance) JPY - playing its role as safe haven currency as in so many markets past. The technical situation has taken on added import with the break below 105.00 in USDJPY. GBP – the UK in a bad place with COVID-19 concerns and risk sentiment shift likely also weighing together with GBPJPY flow. 1.2750 an interesting pivot level in GBPUDS CHF – the greenback outshining the franc as a safe haven. AUD – would expect further relative weakness on risk sentiment deterioration and especially if UDSCNY joins in USD comeback here. CAD – the 1.3250 level is local trigger for an extension higher in USDCAD, with 1.3300-50 a more structurally pivotal area. NZD – weakening after an incredible attempt at cycle highs in NZDUSD on Friday – have to believe RBNZ will attempt to make new impact and talk up FX risks. NZDJPY coming alive suddenly here. SEK – the krona rather resilient in not moving more aggressively lower versus the Euro here – could be bottled up by Riksbank tomorrow. NOK – EURNOK working above local resistance 10.75+ and that’s without much weakness in oil prices. Price action could slip to at least 11.00. 5 Year Chart...

Top Gold Trading StrategiesGold caught a huge bid, finally obeying intermarket correlations with other safe havens. It spiked up to 1965, which is the upper bound of the range we have been discussing for weeks now. Those of you following these reports should have been well prepared. It is currently finding support at the psychological level and congestion zone of 1950. The Kovach OBV has leveled off indicating that momentum has dried up for now. Watch lower levels, for a long trade, since it has been ranging for some time and may test these one more time before breaking out again. We are still bullish of gold but watch out for a good entry. The levels 1936 and 1925 would prove to be good entry points.
