Sentiment
AFRM Long - Affirm Holdings, Inc. - The Triple Affirmed PlayAFRM Long - Affirm Holdings, Inc. - The Triple Affirmed Play (Flow, Dark pool, and Capital Inflows into Tech)
This long biased thesis is based on the following factors:
An aggressive series of short term bullish call option flow totaling $413.5k with a strike price of $70 coming in within the last 20mins of the day (July 1st) that exceeded Open Interest.
Approximately $20M in dark pool activity placed at key levels mid day. Although we do not know the nature of this we were able to see it act as respected levels through out the day and are currently trading above these levels. Also one of the dark pool prints came in at a respected fib level, further showing consistency with price action. Continued upside price action will further increased the probability that these trades were a buy.
Price action has been consolidating for around two months and is primed for a move, making the timing of the the options flow orders and dark pool activity that much more relevant to an upward move.
Bank of America Flow Show report released today (July 1st) showed an inflow of $1.1bn into the tech sector.
Bank of America comments came out with AFRM as a high conviction short-term recommendation.
Possible Threats:
The $212.62 fib defined level may show support where price action may struggle or bounce from.
Price has been rallying for the last two months and a half and a double top pattern had formed mid June, but continued price action may have already shown the pattern to have met its price potential.
Short term tactical sentiment for the tech sector is coming to an overheated area and a bearish downtrend may soon show up to push tech stocks, in general, downward.
That nature of the large dark pool trades are unknown and can only be inferred.
The July 1st dark pool levels are being used to define the following trade parameters:
Short Entry: price levels above, but in close proximity of the $68.27 (dark pool print)
Stop Loss: The invalidation of the ascending channel support line (conservative) or the break of lower dark pool level of $67.75 (aggressive)
Possible Targets:
$72.81 (currently) - Anchored VWAP (from all time high)
$79.30 - A support / resistance level that has been respected by prior price action
$85 - A fib level that may coincide with a ascending channel resistance line
$96.80 - The 50% retracement fib level from all time highs to all time lows
Other targets can be based on the fib levels show in the chart or by drawing support lines
This thesis/idea is just my opinion based on the information discussed within. None of it should be looked as a recommendation or as financial advice.

BUY EURCHF On this chart we see quite impressive market structure. Overall I am looking to short this currency pair but at the moment we need more liquidity in order to go short. Where is this liquidity? Its above the previous highs look to the left at 1.1544 area. So I am currently long, expecting price to take out the high ( my take profit). I have access to market makers and big players positions for those interested. Enjoy your trading and remember to use proper risk management. Forex is a risky business
CAT Short - Caterpillar, Inc. - The Double Top DropNYSE:CAT Short - Caterpillar, Inc. - The Double Top Drop
This short biased thesis is based on the following factors:
A double top that was recently formed and confirmed
A Bearish Three Black Crows candle stick pattern followed the second top (of the double top)
A large series of dark pool prints totaling around $882M came in on June 25th, all around the $216.31 price level. Although we do not know the nature of this trade, we are currently trading under this level and continued downside price action will further increased the probability that this trade was a sell.
Possible Threats:
The $212.62 fib defined level may show support where price action may struggle or bounce from.
Short term tactical sentiment for XLI is starting to recover from a bearish downtrend and may show upward momentum from here that could lift CAT up enough to hit the Stop Loss.
That nature of the large dark pool trades are unknown and can only be inferred.

Short Entry: $214.58
Stop Loss: $218.71

AUDUSD bulls struggle between 50-SMA and previous supportDespite failing to cross the previous support line from May 13, AUDUSD holds onto bounce off 50-SMA amid early Monday. Given the pair’s risk barometer status amid the current cautious markets, AUDUSD is likely to remain heavy. Hence, a clear downside break of 50-SMA level surrounding 0.7570 should back the bears targeting the yearly low of 0.7478. During the fall, the last Monday’s swing high near 0.7545 and the 0.7500 threshold could offer intermediate halts.
Should the market sentiment improves, backing the AUDUSD beyond the 0.7610 trend line hurdle, the early month low of 0.7645 and lows marked during late May, as well as mid-June, may test the pair buyers near 0.7675. In a case where the quote stays bullish above 0.7675, the 0.7700 round figure and the monthly peak of 0.7775 will be in focus. Overall, AUDUSD consolidates the monthly losses but the key resistance tests the upside momentum.
BTC to 11k (?)I'm still not here, but honestly - this is it. I published a private version of this in May and thought to myself "nah". Welp.
Now that this is basically coming to a head, and the last part of hope is on the horizon, honestly - what it looks like could happen to the crypto market is dark winter. It won't take much to invalidate this. A meteoric rise to break $40,000+ from here would spark the market back on to the heels of a moon trip, but as we're closer now to $10k than ATH by a long shot, I'm going to heir on the side caution on this one and wait for the earliest indication of bullish reversal, downward trend rejection that I can find to get long on this market again.

Bitcoin deciding its futureAfter the big selloff from the all-time highs, BTCUSD is now consolidating in the 30k – 40k area.
In particular, the pair is trading within a channel (blue lines) that typically signals and trend continuation.
The bearish outlook is backed by the major resistance displayed by the Levels and Zones indicator, and which sits at around 40k.
Should the price drop, it can move quite rapidly as low as 12k to complete an H&S pattern.
To contrast this view, the price could continue to move sideways until it eventually breaks above the current consolidation channel. To support this upward move, though, the Sentiment Index indicator at the bottom of the chart must spike to the upside and continue to stay positive for a prolonged period of time.
Remember to be patient and never trade impulsively. Always check confirmation from the indicators.

AUDUSD stays directed towards 2.5-month-old support lineAlthough AUDUSD keeps Monday’s recovery moves around 0.7700, the pair bulls have a bumpy road ahead. That said, a 100-day SMA level of 0.7725 and a monthly falling trend line near 0.7760 probes the short-term recovery moves amid sluggish MACD. It should also be noted that an absence of directional signals from the RSI also challenges the pair’s corrective bounce inside a symmetrical triangle formation between 0.7760 and 0.7660.
While the absence of bullish signals isn’t enough to back bears, the market’s anxiety ahead of tomorrow’s US Federal Reserve (Fed) meeting adds to the sellers’ favor. However, a clear downside below an ascending support line from April 01, near 0.7660, becomes necessary for the AUDUSD bears to retake controls. Following that, the monthly low near 0.7645 and the mid-April bottom surrounding 0.7585 should gain the market’s attention.
