Past events affecting gold (SAFE HARBOR!!!)As evident, gold has consistently served as a safe haven for economies, a role it continues to play today. The only deviation from the norm is that the ongoing conflict remains confined to a regional scale, characterized by the commission of war crimes and a notable increase in hostilities. Consequently, we may anticipate a forthcoming surge in gold prices. However, the pivotal question revolves around the sustainability of this price escalation before it eventually reverts to normalcy.
I have thoughtfully constructed a comprehensive chart, as depicted, documenting the significant milestones that gold has traversed in recent years. I am also considering the creation of an even more intricate chart encompassing events from the year 2000 onwards. Please express your interest in this endeavor.
Returning to the central point, it is plausible that despite the ongoing escalation and the absence of significant interventions by Arab leaders on behalf of Gaza, the conflict will eventually subside. This, in turn, may lead to a restoration of prices to their baseline, especially considering Israel's potential need to do so. According to the Israeli military, which relies heavily on reserves, the nation may struggle to endure the economic repercussions of an extended military mobilization. Such a strategy follows the Swiss model of wartime resource allocation, which can be further explored for context. The crux of the matter lies in Israel's financial constraints, as it cannot sustain a year-long, full-scale military deployment, given that it would encompass the entire population and strain available resources. I hope this explanation proves enlightening.
Extreme price volatility on FTXThis might be the most lucrative idea I ever posted on tradingview. Some exchanges like FTX have realy strange spikes in candles, these happen in a matter of minutes. One can speculate that exchanges use these to liquidate people out of their futures positions (spoofing?). The point of taking advantage of them is that they can result in 5% + profit in 1 minute which is unheard of.
The basic strategy is to for example short when a 1 minute candle reaches 5% increase which should not happen in 1 minute. In the chart screen you can see some tools I coded for myself to be able to send signals on these 1 minute charts to a robot to buy at these levels. The important thing is that these happen instantly a human will not be able to profit from these spikes as he is not fast enough in putting an order. The difficulty I still have is that my webhook could be too slow it would be much better to already have the limit order open and to have it change every minute to the desired price. If anyone can help me figure this last part out it would be greatly appreciated.
The only reason this chart is on 15 minute chart is because tradingview does not allow me to post 3 minute charts.

Volatile Markets In Recent Times ? PERFECT !Over the past few weeks, we have been observing huge volatile market with various currency pairs due to the spread of the virus. Times like this, volatility gives price to reach long term movement much faster, Looking at the USDCHF price as been trending downwards up until last week, an huge reversal occurred to the upside at the 0.918 support level. I expect price to continue with this trend and momentum towards 1.032 eitherways time would tell !
Risk Warning : The risk of loss in trading Foreign Exchange (FOREX) can be substantial.
You should therefore carefully consider whether trading is suitable for you in the light of your financial condition.
Goodluck !
Volume Divergence / Coincidental Volume Spikes, hmm... Volume divergence to me is valuable, it says a lot if properly examined. So the the main thing that is obvious here is the bearish volume divergence. The late 2017 high compared to the mid 2019 high, with volume compared shows clear divergence. This should have been a big warning sign as it formed. Something more interesting is if you closely examine the price and volume structure you see a series of patterns that emerge. As you can clearly see going all the way back to 2017 there are a series of volume spikes that coincidentally appear at somewhat strategic points. In the market if you want to say theoretically push the market down, for what ever reason. You would first need to push the market up, this is cause and effect. By this cause/action of swiftly pushing the market up you can actually create the desired effect/reaction of causing either a swift pullback, or preferably a slow more controlled pullback that extends over a desired range of price and time. It is very evident that over the numerous examples posted on this chart of blow off tops, or just swift moves up, there seems to be a correlation of these events at somewhat strategic points. What I feel should be taken from this for instance the 12/18/19 rally earlier today. It appears to be just another strategically implemented cause/action, that if history repeats should complete the similar effect/reaction of numerous previous incidents. If you have taken today as a good sign, and not truly looked at what has really happened. You have only fell into yet another of a series of unfortunate events, in my opinion designed to separate you from your coin. Be safe out there, happy trading. Cheers...
Intraday setup: USD/CAD analysisfocusing on the smaller time frame, the price has created its 3rd drive into that consolidation zone, the price has overextended into a key psych region. Am expecting a retracement towards the 1.32500 area
- Also, GDP for CAD is expected to be lower than previous stat, that could be the catalyst for the price to pick up momentum
great risk/reward of 1:4
How $VIX vs 3-Month VIX Signals Stock Market BottomsThis pattern was shown to me by Liz Ann Sonders in her publications at Charles Schwab, which are available to all of us via Schwab.com and her posts on Twitter.
What you see here is when longer term (3-month) VIX ($VIX3M) drops to a fraction of front-month (1-month) $VIX, it can signal an extreme shift in demand for short term options, which has shown us time and time again to be a stock market bottom.
If the market doesn't recover from one of these spike-downs in $VIX3M/$VIX, then it implies that was just one selling wave of many. To explain: a selling wave happens as investors first bought puts to hedge their own selling (driving up VIX as they purchased puts), then sold stock and purchased call options to replace the stock positions. Secondly, the overwhelming weight of the sales turned into "hot potato" selling where each successive buyer tries to pick the bottom, but turns around and sells out at a loss. Buyers can't stop the momentum of the powerful selling wave hitting the market until it finally does when sellers wear out.
Click on the "MAKE IT MINE" button and scroll your mouse through the data to see how and when the data points line up. Get comfortable with it and add it to your arsenal to help you find market tops and bottoms.
Take a look at my other $VIX charts publications to learn even more about $VIX that you didn't already know. Hint: I have a very clever way of looking at $VIX that will give you insight into what is going on and how to interpret it and use for future trades. I'm always in the Key Hidden Levels Chat Room here at TradingView.
So, I'll make this a "LONG" post for the $SPY, but this only applies as a general filter, not a specific on since when $VIX "goes wild" my time frame shifts down to about 3 hours from my normal time frame of 3-days to 3-weeks.
Cheers,
Tim

05 AUG 2018 - Litecoin/ Bitcoin NEXT SPIKE SOONLTC looking like beginning a new curve in the longterm uptrend. But pay attention, because last time it did, it dumped just a moment before to immediatly come back to its BTC price base & then began its SERIOUS uptrend (last green zone). Next one should happen this month and will maybe do some moves right before again. BUY and SELL zones are market and with dates.
(buy now, sell later)
_PS: note this year has a lot changed compared to last year, and its going to affect the market different this time most likely. But Im sure LTC has future and would just spike more in this case._
*Such lite, very better*
*wow**

Burning your account in volatile lower time frames?In this very first video I'm posting, I look at the 30 min time frame where some day traders tend to trade. I show 6 charts with high volatility and lots of spiking all over the place.
Yes there may be some visible and tradable pattern in these on careful analysis. However, the degree of volatility seen over the last two months may not 'respect' traditional forms of technical analysis - as they may have in the previous 6 months.
It is my observation that the last two months have shown more volatility across many forex pairs and indices. Those that were already prone to much volatility are even more volatile.
I don't mean to tell traders what to do or not do. I'm only thinking that new traders especially, with smaller account sizes may be more cautious so as not to burn their accounts. Avoid gambling.
EOS example of SHAKEOUTSBTC is in a resistance filled zone where it will bounce up and down and mostly end up going sideways (most likely imo). The drops we see from BTC shake ppl out looking to rebuy lower and here I present a problem with this strategy if you are holding strong alts. EOS traded up to 6.28 when BTC took a fall from 9150 and fell down to 5.95 by the time BTC bottomed (temporarily or not) at 8750, as BTC was consolidating at that level deciding whether to go back up now or set up another leg down, many probably waited to reenter (I did too for parts of positions sold at 9k). BUT BAM! EOS goes up 15% in 1hr, ICX, SALT and others did the same vertical jump to new highs off the Mar 18 lows within minutes of BTC finding support at the 61.8% retrace of prior wave up.
The algo shakeout was a success. Now that normies are shuffling back in picking up coins at increased prices, they can take BTC back down and let these big moves retrace.
You have been warned by many and I will warn you again here....trading these ranges is tough and risky. With moves like this happening, just hodl and eat whatever small loss a retrace will bring bc the bounce up can be violent and you will miss out on profits that would have been yours had you not decided to lock in and reload lower.
If you managed to skip the fall and catch the bounce...you are my hero.

High Probabilities for a spikeHi traders!
An interesting setup with RIC/BTC.
There is a strong support line and history shows a lot of spikes.. The fundamentals are good.. The Market cap is in the lower end, hence there are a lot of potential in this coin.
Good luck in the markets!
BIG PICTURE resistance and support as well as significant eventsThis is a big picture chart looking at resistance and support levels.
The vertical lines mark events.
1st red line is BCH fork.
Next blue line is the start of the first LTC spike
Followed by the green top of the LTC spike.
Then 2 more red lined on the BCG and failed 2X fork.
These are followed up by a blue line 1 month after (same time frame as before) which might mark the start of the next spike on TOMORROW.
The last 2 green lines would be the tops based on the BCG fork and the failed 2X for if the timing is the same as last time there was a bitcoin fork...
I have been hodling for a long time now so I’m really hopeful we will see another huge spike soon.
But honestly I’m hopping BTC does not follow the spike too because I would love to dump all my ltc into btc then ride into next year in btc. Sell off. Then go back to ltc just in time for lightening atomic swaps to become mainstream.
That’s my plan anyway...
Fist's Rejection Spike Template v2More from Vdubus legend origin - all praise to him - but with another couple of tweaks. S/R length has been shortened by 25% and an EMA15 has been added if you like getting down with EMA15.
My work is nothing in comparison to Vdubus. I hope this little adaptation both respects and honours his work.
Check the original for the full force (Vdubus Rejection Spike V4) - just beautiful work.
