The next rate cycle is going to be inflationary...We will have a deflationary crisis before super inflationary crisis. During the upcoming rate cycle we will have inflation going up at the same time as rates. Welcome to a new world. At least in the US. I've been saying this for years, higher rates only compensate inflation it doesn't fight inflation.
US30Y
Weekend Update: Bond yields to move higherI received a request to update this chart. Thank you @Braeden2
The US30Y held it's wave 4 bottom in the .382% area of wave 3. The last time I posted this chart we had not yet embarked on our 5-wave pattern higher in what I'm counting as a wave 5. Today we see we have a wave 1 and 2 in place. Additionally, you'll notice how our recent wave 4 structure alternates with our previous wave 2 structure. We should have been expecting wave 4 to be deep and quick, were as our wave appears shallow and long. That is precisely what occurred.
From here I would expect within the next month to begin to clearly subdivide in our wave 3 of 5 and target yields in the 4.294% to 4.529%. This would be for our wave 3. Upon that happening we'll need a 4 and then the ultimate destination for this structure is in the target box for wave 5.
I've enjoyed the ongoing conversations in Trader-World about who is right?...The bond market or the Fed? I don't follow bonds closely, nor have I ever traded them, therefore I don't what constitutes victory for bonds or The Fed.
But I will pose this question to those reading this...what does 4.895% yield on the 30y mean? Who wins, Bonds, The Fed, or both?
Best to all,
Chris
Morning Update: 30Y Bond Yield This chart appears pretty well behaved. This decline in yield has come right into the .382% retracement area of wave 3 for a wave 4 bottom. If the 30Y bond continues to behave...yields are headed above 5%. To some of you reading this...that may sound like a stretch.
To those who like correlations...I wonder what happens to stocks if this plays out?

Best to all,

Flag not double top❗❗Many beginners traders are watching closely the markets after missing the move up so they sell it and wanting the market to reverse it all, you must be patient and know the pair you are trading on very well as well the markets how it works don't FOMO and as I said that's not a double top that's a flag in the making don't let the market take your money always do your risk management
TLT: Order Flow, Auction Process & Failures To RotateHey traders,
If we zoom out to check the price action in TLT from a daily perspective, what do you notice?
Every single time there is a failure to rotate (hinted via diamond labels), the new expansionary wave leads the market towards a new equilibrium point that so far has been found at much lower prices.
I’ve circled each and every instance where these failures to rotate back up occurred. Each market is an auction process, and via the OFA script , we are able to get a pristine read of the constant ebbs and flows.
The structure depicted via the script should also be a clear red flag that in this type of well-anchored bear market, being a hero typically gets you in trouble, so stay with the trend.
Remember the two key main features of the OFA indicator:
Magnitude: A major clue that will help determine the health of a trend is the type of progress by the dominant side in control of the trend. We need to ask the following question: Are the new legs in the active buy-sell side campaign as identified by the script increasing or decreasing in magnitude?
Velocity: When it comes to the distance the price moves, the magnitude is only ½ the equation. The other ½ has to do with the velocity of the move or the speed. Was the new leg created after a fast and impulsive move? Or did price make a new low or high with the movement being sluggish, compressive and taking too long to form? A good rule of thumb is to count the number of candles it took to achieve a new leg.

long US30 treasuries hereUS30 treasuries are hitting a resistance line, 50 MMA and a high RSI and MACD. It seems like a good risk / reward to buy some treasuries here.
If the recession is starting it should put a downward pressure on inflation and treasury rates.
I will buy some TLT ETF and SPPX ETF.
Update on long duration bondsHello everybody! I wanted to make a quick update on where I think the 10y and 30y bonds will be headed in the next few months, as in the past, I've been talking quite a bit about deflation and a recession being close. We have seen TLT rise significantly, yet I think there is more upside. In the short term, I can see a further pullback, but in my honest opinion, the drop over the last two days was caused mainly by Pelosi visiting Taiwan and bonds getting overbought on lower timeframes.
The 30y yields were rejected at the monthly pivot, while the 10y yields bounced at support and were denied at resistance. Yields are still in a short-term bearish trend, and there is no confirmation of a reversal yet, although the trend might have changed. It all depends on the situation between China and the US, as the more the tensions between those countries increase, the higher inflation will be, and therefore the higher rates will be. If China starts aggressively selling US bonds, this could create chaos in the funding markets. If the US starts banning Chinese imports or exports, the US bond market could explode, and yields go to the moon. This would force the Fed to step in and do unlimited QE / yield curve control. Essentially we are stuck in a scenario of mutually assured destruction here, and there is no way either one will come out as a winner in the short term.
I believe that we are in a deflationary/disinflationary period, which could be disturbed at any moment if China invades Taiwan. The Russia/Ukraine war pushed inflation higher at a time when inflation was about to start slowing down, and a China/Taiwan war could push inflation higher at a time when inflation was about to slow down. TLT could quickly reach 125-135 in the next few months. However, I don't believe bond yields are going negative soon. It will be challenging for the market to have negative nominal yields when inflation is so high and at a time when the Fed might be forced to intervene and do YCC.

US30Y interest rate hike prognosis over the long term.Due to the rising inflation, the Fed has stepped in to reign in inflation. Jerome Powell has stated numerous times he will be aggressive with rate hikes just like Paul Volcker was in the '80s. Powell and Volcker are of the same school of thought.
"Inflation emerged as an economic and political challenge in the United States during the 1970s. The monetary policies of the Federal Reserve board, led by Volcker, were widely credited with curbing the rate of inflation and expectations that inflation would continue. US inflation, which peaked at 14.8 percent in March 1980, fell below 3 percent by 1983. The Federal Reserve board led by Volcker raised the federal funds rate, which had averaged 11.2% in 1979, to a peak of 20% in June 1981. The prime rate rose to 21.5% in 1981 as well, which helped lead to the 1980–1982 recession, in which the national unemployment rate rose to over 10%." - Wikipedia on Paul Volcker
What does that mean for us?
In essence, lower equity prices, temporary economic contraction and higher lending rates to reign in cheap capital.
Looking at the 30 year US government Bond Yields (US30Y), I am expecting yields to continue to increase from current 3.2% --> 4.1% --> 4.8% --> 5.5% and finally 7.2%. If inflation continues higher, then rates will likely continue to rise over the next few years. The era of cheap lending is over.
Trade safely.
US30Y: Rising Yield as the expectation of Rising Interest Rate?U.S. Inflation has surged significantly to 8.5% in March 2022, It hits a new forty-year high. As the Inflation keeps increasing month over month, The Federal Reserve is committed to tackling inflation by Rising Interest Rate, potentially 0.50% in May 2022. The rising interest rate will cause bond prices to fall. Consequently, The Bond yield will be increased.
Chart Perspective:
US 30 Years Government Bond Yield (US30Y) has broken out of the falling wedge pattern. US30Y is also accompanied by a golden cross on the MACD indicator.
We conclude from the macro and chart perspective, That is a potential bullish outlook for US 30 Years Treasury Yield.
The roadmap will be invalid after reaching the support/target area.

DOW JONES LONGS ACTIVE📉📉📉📉 Expecting bullish price action on DOW JONES as we have to make the retracement move because price rejected bullish orderblock area on M15 that acts as a valuable area of ,,support,, if you will. We also have a clear liquidity pool way above the old high (buy side liquidity) 4530. VIX opened in the european market with a huge GAP that should be filled asap, VIX bearish means STOCK go BULLISH.
What do you think ? Comment below..
DOW JONES LONGS 📉📉📉📉Expecting bullish price action on DOW as price takes out liquidity below the sell side area where a lot of LONG TRADERS put their stop losses. We have a lot of bearish imbalances that are un-filled for now and those areas should act as a magnet for the price.
What do you think ? Comment below...
DOW JONES SHORTS ACTIVE 📉📉📉📉 Expecting bearish price action on DOW JONES after price takes out weekly highs + institutional figure 35.000 liquidity making a huge short squeeze. I think the move is very parabolic with a lot of bullish imbalances aka price inefficiency and from there the price could start the selloff, another confluence in this trade is that VIX rejected an important area of ,,support,, if you will and from there should go higher
From a fundamental perspective we have same bad news regarding Russia-Ukraine conflict
What do you think ? Where we go next ?
Part 1) Don't Fight The Fed with 30 Year Interest Rate Target.There's an apparent "reverse head & shoulders pattern" on the Monthly 30 Year Yield Chart. The implication of the broken neckline is a reversal of the previous downtrend. Dow theory teaches us that the minimum upside target is the depth of the neckline to the peak of the "head." I see potential resistance at the downward resistance trendline and then again at the previous swing high. If the trend breaks back below the neckline then the whole pattern is suspect. If the reversal is legit then we can suggest the time frame to reach the target would be the width of the "head & shoulders" along the neckline. In this instance the chart is suggesting we get to the price target in about three years give or take.
Thoughts?
