When Trump Made America Great Again - SPXSP:SPX TVC:SHCOMP AMEX:VEU TVC:SX5E AMEX:VEU 1, Vertical lines: Thin Orange is Trump wins election. Thick Orange is start of Trump presidency 2. Chart Lines: White is USA stock market, S&P500 Blue is the European “Dow Jones”, Euro Stoxx 50 Orange is the market cap weighted index of the entire planet’s stock markets (the 44 countries with capital markets), except the S&P 500. “All World minus USA” ETF. Red is China stock market. Summary: Between January 29th and May 24th, 2018, The U.S. went from lagging the World’s stock market to clearly leading the Earth’s stock. I propose this is a direct result of the announcement and implementation of Tariffs. 1st with $50B of tariffs on China on March 22nd, 2018. - I had initially thought this was due to Brexit (Britain exiting the European Union), However, the Brexit vote happened in June 2017, and actually seems to have boosted their markets. - For symmetry, and to compare apples 2 apples, this chart is in log percentage format.

SP500 won't go much further up from 3000Below is technical analysis based on chart readings. Refer to chart for macro commentary. SP500 meaningfully tested 3000 five times in the past 12 months. First two formed an M resistance - didn't break through. Third time was also two very close attempts - didn't break through. Finally, in July, we have seen 3000+ twice. One's already past us, the other one - we are in it right now. Does this look familiar to you? Another M shape maybe? Coupled with the macro conditions, I believe the market cannot go much higher from now on, and will correct 10-15% by Dec 2019. I have sold my SPY . Planning to enter below strategy this week: Short 270 SPY call Dec2019 Long 300 SPY call Dec2019 Initial credit to buy TLT Monthly covered call on TLT I will close above strategy by Dec 2019. Fingers crossed.

AUSSIE Likely To Slump Towards 0.6700 Level. A SHORT SWING TRADENow that The RBA has cut its interest and the economy not doing so well we could see this pair slump to 67 cents! Bare in mind that the 0.7000 level is a very crucial resistance at the moment and any upward momentum is unlikely to happen as the trade war persists putting pressure on the AUD. 0.67000 level is another crucial support that has been drawn from the monthly charts and in my view this where the price is headed next. so below are the trade details. shall there be any updates i will update them below TRADE ENTRY LEVEL: 0.69100 STOP LOSS: 0.71100 TAKE PROFIT: 0.67000 RR: 1:1 TRADE TYPE: SHORT CHEERS

FOREX, ruble, August and Jaroslaw KosatyThe fact that there was no fundamental force majeure yesterday led to the “calm” Wednesday. In fact, the last statistics outcome prepared in line with forecasts as well as UK inflation rate. After crossing the new local Minimum yesterday, the pound “changed the situation” in the afternoon. So, we recommend looking for points for its buying. Traditionally we cannot but mention Mr Trump’s Twitter account which he uses as “negotiation table”. “We have a long way to go as far as tariffs where China is concerned, if we want. We have another $325 billion we can put a tariff on, if we want,” Trump said. As the result Gold at 1430. So, we recoomend to sell gold from these points, and buy it from these 1400. As for the Russian ruble sellings. Well, August is not “the luckiest” month for the ruble. “ August's” Force majeure situations, as well as fundamental negative have affected the ruble. Start with the August Coup (1991) and default (1998) to Kursk submarine disaster and Russian-Georgian (2008) and Russian-Ukrainian wars (2014). In this light, Jaroslaw Kosaty, a currency strategist at Poland’s largest bank, sees the currency sinking about 9% against the dollar by the end of the year. His forecast of 69 rubles per dollar. The reason is that Bank of Russia’s switch to monetary easing. Therefore we recommend selling Russian ruble. The Federal Reserve abandoned foreign-exchange-market intervention. Recall that a strong dollar is on Trump’s way. As a result, his verbal attacks are becoming more aggressive and let the markets suspect that the United States will move from something in mind to something in kind. Treasury can intervene without the Federal Reserve's agreement (2000). We are waiting to see if it happens again. But the rick factor exists. The most interesting trading option is short dollar. Therefore, we continue to recommend looking for points for dollar sales in the foreign exchange market. Our trading preferences for today are as follows: sell US dollar, oil, ruble and gold, but buy the pound.

Consequences, oil surplus & dollar in troubleThe previous week provided quite eventful for the financial market. Now, the market expects the Fed to cut the interest rate this month. The probability of such outcome is 100%. So, there is a conundrum, reducing by 0,25% or 0,5 %? After two days of Fed Chairman Jerome Powell's testimony to Congress making the US dollar a weak player as a short dollar. The current downtrend is just a beginning as the US dollar is at extremum point. In addition, as the USA monetary policy has shifted supporting bearish trend. The one and only important data will be Retail Sales Report in the USA, therefore, we sell the dollar. Force majeure events are near term and not supporting the current market conjuncture that has been named as long-term Surplus. International Energy Agency 2Q 2019 the surplus was 900 000 b / d. As we can observe the OPEC + No. 2 did not precipitate the commodity deficit. Since 2011 oil consumer demand growth rate is at its lows, we will sell the oil. Trade war is the reason for all the trouble the economy is facing. China reported a data pact with macroeconomic data: GDP and industrial production growth rate, retail sales indicator. Despite the fact that the outcome is better than expected, GDP growth was 6.2%, which is below the minimum mark of 6.5%, which the Chinese Government put in its long-term development strategy. Earlier, China reported a decline in exports by 7.3%, and Singapore (one of the world's most export-dependent economies) reported a decline in GDP in the second quarter by 3.4% (the maximum decline since 2012). Our trading recommendations for today are as follows. We continue to look for opportunities to sell the dollar in almost all pairs (USDJPY, EURUSD, GBPUSD). Sell the Russian ruble and oil. We continue to sell the oil near the highs and buying from the lows.

WTI (USOIL) Might Target $70 Amid Iran Tension & Supply Jitters!The 3 horizontal lines visible in the main weekly chart of WTI are concrete support and resistance levels taken from monthly TF. Currently the price is at 60.00 and there is a descending trendline preventing the price from climbing further. From a technical perspective, once this trendline breaks, the price on the monthly charts must close above 63.00 concrete resistance. This is just to add gain further confluence and confidence in our potential trade. Once the monthly candle closes above 63.00 we could wait for the price to retrace slightly before executing a LONG trade to target 70.00! On a fundamental perspective there are 2 factors in our favor. First one is the IRAN tensions with the US and now potentially U.K. US putting sanctions on iranian OIL is bullish for the WTI and the tensions is just further strengthening this aspect. Secondly, the storm in the gulf is limiting the drilling activities which is also bullish for the OIL. Lastly the the deal that is binding OPEC & NON-OPEC countries seem to be going okay so far as they all want the price of OIL to rise. One thing that is bearish for the WTI at the moment seems the ongoing tradewar which if no deal could be made, the demand for OIL would decrease! So it remains to be seen in the coming weeks how the situation develops. Shall there be a trade entry i will post in a new post.

SP500 could see 3300 by late October and here's howIn this video, I explain the basics of using Fibonacci, time application and geometry to predict the future. TLDR: SP500 will hit 3045 and while it could reject here, it looks quite bullish and 3307 is worth betting on. The rising wedge will break and we could see a December style dip around late April, early May 2020. Getting to 3300 could be a slow melt up over the next few months, with a total break down in trade negotiations being a possible/likely catalyst for the break down. BTFD will work for as long as the market believes the Fed can engineer the economy.

AUD/USD: Fake breakout on dailyHi guys, AUDUSD is forming a promising setup on the daily chart. The price made what looks like a fake breakout with a bearish pinbar candlestick near the 61.8% Fib level. The level also aligns with a horizontal and trendline resistance. The RSI formed a bearish divergence in a pair that is overall in a healthy downtrend. Let's see what today's NFP will give us, and bear in mind that a US-China trade truce or any positive news on that matter may support the Australian dollar.

Tailored Brands channel break, double bottom, short squeezeTailored Brands has been in a *steep* decline since its high of 35.86 in May 2018. It fell all the way to just above 5.00 this month. Wow. However, I see signs of reversal. Firstly, we've broken out of the downward parallel channel that the stock inhabited for a year. Secondly, We've formed what looks like a double bottom pattern. Thirdly, the stock's fundamentals are starting to look better. Its 3.82 P/E is attractive, and its forward P/E of 3.07 is even better. In the last 3 months, insiders purchased a net 143,015 shares-- much more than the net 36,253 shares they purchased in the 9 months previous. TLRD beat estimates on its last earnings report, and it said encouraging things on its last conference call about reducing China exposure. Plus, there's news this weekend of renewed trade talks between the US and China. As a bonus, short interest is 35.47% of float, which makes this stock a good candidate for a short squeeze. If the year-long trend changes and the price begins to rise, it could do so very quickly.

Intel above trendlineIntel leape above its trendline earlier today, but then bounced hard off channel top and back below the trendline. However, it's now peeking above the trendline again, which bodes well for tomorrow. Trump's announcement over the weekend that trade talks are resuming is good for Intel not only because it offers the promise of resolving the trade war, but also because Trump immediately lifted the Huawei ban. Intel has lots of exposure to Huawei, and Broadcom recently revised its guidance downward because of the ban. With the ban lifted, we shouldn't have to worry about Intel doing the same. Unfortunately, tomorrow is a "bear" day according to the Stock Traders' Almanac-- a day when the major market indices have declined in value more than 60% of the time. So based on those historical seasonal patterns, this is a risky trade.

TRADERSAI - A.I. Powered Model Trades for Today, MON 07/01Almost every major financial news media outlet predicted the outcome of a thin-on-details "truce" on further tariffs than any substantive progress towards an agreement or a resolution to the trade war. And, yet, the overnight futures action is exuberant and indicating significant gap up in S&P 500 Index on the open. It is highly improbable that this bidding up is coming from any institutional or smart money. When mom-and-pop individual investors seem to be leading a market move, it always ends up badly for them. Our models are not buying into the current pop in the overnight index futures and are in an indeterminate state and are staying out of the markets for the day.  Don't fret over missed potential profits - first, pay attention to hedging/minimizing the potential losses! The risk-reward profile at this level does not appear to justify jumping into these turbulent and murky waters. Let the close today guide your further assessment of the market. Good luck with your trading this week!

EURUSD: Short the Pullback, AgainAs the U.S. called a truce with China on the trade war, the dollar has begun to recover together with a technically oversold dollar. EURUSD since peaking at 1.1410 has retraced close to 10 cents after the 2nd wave of bearish movement has begun early this morning. Since the US-China trade war has temporary halted and while the market is still anticipating whether the Fed will cut rate this month or in September later this year, the dollar is most likely to recover further thus we will probably see EURUSD dip lower below 1.13. For intraday trade, we can wait for the price to pull back from the current bearish trend and look for sell opportunity at 1.135 which is around the bottom of the previous consolidation.

Trade-war relief - July 2019Trump and Xi Ping have come to a tariff truce at G-20 this weekend. Trump is now using Huawei (previously blacklisted, banned, etc.) as a bargaining chip, allowing TEMPORARILY, U.S. companies to continue doing business with China's Huawei. Here is a list of Top 20 U.S. based Huawei suppliers . I believe most of them will rally this month (July 2019). - Percentage number next to stock symbol is the revenue exposure to Huawei Intel (INTC) - 1% Advanced Micro Device (AMD) - 2% Broadcom (AVGO) - 6% Qualcomm (QCOM) - 5% Microsoft (MSFT) Nvidia (NVDA) CommScope (COMM) - 2% Texas Instruments (TXN) Seagate Technology (STX) - 4% Micron Technology (MU) - 2% Qorvo (QRVO) - 11% Flex (FLEX) - 5% Skyworks (SWKS) - 6% Corning (GLW) - 2% Analog Devices (ADI) - 3% NeoPhotonics (NPTN) - 47% Western Digital (WDC) Lumentum (LITE) - 11% II-VI (IIVI) - 8% Finisar (FNSR) - 8% Maxim Integrated (MXIM) - 4% Keysight Technology (KEYS) - 2% Marvell Technology (MRVL) - 1% Note: Trump can go back on the Huawei deal at any time.

United Health breakout above trendline resistanceUNH is looking like a great buy. Not only did it break out today above a downward trendline, but it's also near the bottom of an upward-sloping parallel channel. Fundamentals look good too, with generally positive analyst ratings and a series of recent earnings beats. Healthcare is hot right now, with its low China exposure and other sectors looking overbought. UNH next reports earnings in mid-July. Until then I expect a good medium-term bull run in UNH.

EURUSD Might Attempt An Up Move to 1.14! A LONG TRADE SETUPENTRY AT AROUND: 1.12600 LEVEL STOP LOSS: 1.12000 TAKE PROFIT: 1.14000 RR: 1:1 On technical perspective the triangle has broken out and the price has retraced for us to go LONG here. The triangle breakout confirms that EURUSD is starting to consolidate and aim towards the weekly 50 EMA. With all the rate cut news going on and the US economy slowing, it should help this PAIR reach the 1.14000 in the near future. shall there be any updates i will update them below. cheers

BTC update and the week to comeThis an update to my previous ideas: Bitcoin: Bitcoin Dominace --------- So, either way, BTC will reach all positive targets, it's only a question of which path it takes. The short path (above green arrow trend line) or the medium path (below green arrow). Thick red line is the decision line and I'm quite confident BTC will at least reach this level ($9000-93xx). Positive talks or tweets however will likely be what sends BTC to .382 ($8136). From there - support levels become $8100 $7200 $6200 In this path, wave 3 of the larger impulse wave (blue elliot) will begin upon one of those supports with $6200 being the most likely reversal point.
