Rising WedgeBoth trendlines are sloping up and narrowing at the apex which = a rising wedge. This pattern is not valid until the bottom trendline is broken. Rising wedges can break up but in the long run they break down and are considered a bearish pattern. Rising wedges interrupt supply and demand and represent too much supply. Several spinning tops up there representing indecision. No recommendation.

MC DONALD'S TRADING LESSONSStory time… One of the greatest success stories of all time, is with the company which is based on the glorious golden arches we still see today. Mc Donalds… It all started in 1940 where, two brothers, Maurice and Richard “Dick” Mc Donald’s made a small fortune selling hamburgers in San Bernardino, California… They took a product and an idea and turned it into a fast, convenient and consistently profitable business. Once they mastered their strategy and system then they introduced Ray Croc (a shrewd American businessman) into an agreement to build more Mc Donalds… However, he barely made enough profits to sustain, find more franchisees and even pay off his expenses… That’s when Harry Sonneborn came about where he made Ray Croc realise, he was in the land business rather than the restaurant business… Ray Kroc explained… “Pretty simple, really. Franchisee finds a piece of land he likes, gets a lease, usually 20 years, takes out a construction loan, throws up a building, and off he goes.” Sonneborne then said: “You don’t seem to realize what business you’re in. You’re not in the burger business. You’re in the real estate business.” This conversation lead to the global expansion of McDonald’s, turning it into the most successful fast food corporation in the world. In this article, I’m not going to talk about Ray Kroc, but instead how the brother’s starting concept applies to trading. Here are three lessons I learnt from Mc Donald’s Success #1: Less is more… The brothers were geniuses from the start… When something didn’t work, they threw it out… When something showed to work, they harnessed it, optimised it and improved it… They did this with data. The brothers took sales data to compare which products were making more money. They found that 80% of their sales in the last 3 years came from simple burgers. Each burger was made with precise ingredients. Any deviation and this caused sales to drop. The rest of the 20% were drinks and barbeque. So the brothers made their life easy and got rid of the barbeque pit completely. They also cut their menu down from 25 items to just 11 items. It mainly had Burgers Fries Milkshakes and Soft drinks They said let’s do less of what’s not helping sales and focus on what is making the most revenue. Once they got rid of the barbeque pit the brothers later on systematised the burger making process. So how does this relate to trading… Less is more is one of my most powerful quotes when it comes to trading… You need to cut out a LOT of data to maximise your returns… Find one or two systems that suit you. Minimise the number of markets, time frames and charts to look at. Cut out unnecessary indicators that conflict with the systems signals and frequency. Choose a certain time that works best for your system. Stick to 1 or two financial instruments to trade. Only have 1 or 2 or max 3 trading accounts with reason. It will take time and effort on your side to cut out what needs to be cut, but you won’t regret it in the long run… As Mc Donald’s did… Take a product improve it drastically then sell it to the masses. #2: Find a system to repeat over and over With Mc Donald’s did you know… They took a tennis court and drew out the compartments of making a burger. They then orchestrated it with their employees until the flow and speed was at the most optimised level. Once they found a winning system, reduced the time to make a burger and optimise the process – they were able to even drop the price to appeal more demand… At the time, they could drop the burger to 15 cents… With trading, you know this… You’ll need to find, adopt, follow and repeat your turn-key system. It doesn’t matter whether it takes you 2 months, 2 years or even 7 years to get right. Once you have it, you’ll be able to generate consistent results year in and year out. Just like the cycle of burgers, you’ll have your very own consistent cycle of success through trading… Also, with your one system you’ll be able to optimise it and improve it when conditions change… This brings us to the third lesson… #3: “We love to see you smile” This was one of Mc Donald’s campaign they used from 2000-2003, which has stuck… Not only does Mc Donald’s keep to their winning formula, systems, products and manner – but they also adapt to change… They continue to offer new items on the menu’s as time’s change… From Happy Meals, Toys, Lollipops, Café’s, Ice creams, food cultural adaptions to even Vegan food… They think of everything to adapt to change… BUT! They don’t stop offering their winning products that bring in revenue. With trading you need to also evolve as a trader and adapt to change. Sure, your system will remain consistent. Sure, your risk management won’t change… But there are certain elements that require change such as… New markets: You might want to incorporate your system with new markets i.e. AI, Electric Vehicles, Metaverse, Cannabis, Energy alternatives, Crypto, NFTs. AI (with ChatGPT, DALLEE, BING) and so on… New instruments: Also, we might need to evolve from the current financial instruments we’re trading… Once day, CFDs and Spread Betting might be a thing of the past. I personally have evolved from shares, warrants, futures to ETFs. You never know what will be next… New automations: We might soon have robots and AI to use out system to find trades and execute them. You get the point… If you want to be successful with trading you have to understand the power of systems to repeat… This way the system will do the job for you… Next time you’re at Mc Donald’s, you’ll see what I mean.

MCD Mcdonalds is now at its all time highAs the market leader in the fast food industry, McDonalds enjoys global brand recognition. It is a slow but steady gainer pays consistent dividends and always has buyers when a seller lets some shares go at a reasonable price. On the weekly chart over five years MCD is now at the all time high and weathered the COVID era and recent market gyrations quite well. The EMA Cloud and Ichimmoku cloud indicators have consistent slopes tracking in parallel. MCD is consistently above the anchored long term VWAP showing buyers are in contro. It often uses the VWAP plus one standard deviation for support. Fundamentally, if a recession hit when eating customers will be looking for value as a high consideration. My long term call options average 45% in monthly return. I will buy one more each time there is a red engulfing candle on the daily or 4H chart. see also money.cnn.com

Is McDonald’s Breaking Out?McDonald’s is seldom an exiting stock. That’s been especially true lately, but now the hamburger giant could be breaking out. The first pattern on today’s chart is the long descending channel that started in November after MCD broke out to new highs. Notice how prices failed to make a lower low on March 13 and made a higher high today. That may suggest the consolidation phase is nearing an end. Second, the stock oscillated and either side of the 50-day simple moving average (SMA) during most of the consolidation. But it’s remained above that SMA for over a week. Is the intermediate-term trend turning more bullish? Next, MACD has turned positive. Finally, Bollinger Band Width narrowed as MCD shuffled in the falling channel. That may create the potential for price movement to expand if the breakout is confirmed.

Pepper for lunch!-One of the most promising companies and the largest chain of restaurants in the world (fast food), can it go through corrections? -If the answer is yes, that means we really could have such a "recession" soon. -Based on SETUP and graphical analysis, there are some indications that we may have sharper corrections in the asset. -I believe that long-term investors will want more premiums to buy the asset, mostly due to high inflation and, mainly, due to the monetary tightening that the FED will introduce. -But this is a controversial thing, after all, when there is a reduction in the purchasing power of the masses, companies like MC DONALDS manage to benefit a lot from the situation. Is this graphic analysis trying to play a trick on me? -Using the monthly chart, it indicates that the stock is entering a downtrend. Or will it be a correction to the region of $245.37? Or do we have a flag? There are so many variables to consider! -By the weekly chart and upward trend it lost its strength in December 2022, where it ended up forming a bearish pivot as shown in the image below. We have prices losing and gaining the critical zone of $264.23. If there is a loss in this region, the correction could be towards $241.49 at first. -Going down a little further, on the daily chart, we have this beautiful bearish pivot almost forming, and its destination according to the SETUP used is much lower. We have the long average at 253.13. Will it be able to help hold prices? -Honestly, I hope I'm totally wrong! -Do your analysis and good business. -Be Aware, If You Buy, Use Stop! -See below for other graphic analysis!

MCDonalds Analysis + Trade Setup In my opinion, this is one of the best sales deals on the current market. In the monthly chart, this stock has a 5-wave trend, which is currently the end of wave 3 and we are at the starting point of wave 4. This wave will be in the form of A B C and it will be a big and rapid wave. The reason for its rapidity is the end of a 5-wave in the weekly time frame and a 5-wave in the daily time frame. It is worth noting that wave A will start with a high initial acceleration and then take an oscillatory form with large fluctuations Note: If you buy a transaction at this price, please be patient and focus more on your psychology so that you don't exit the market when emotional fluctuations start and save your profit completely. Be successful and profitable.

The Daily Key Levels to Watch for MCDOn the daily chart, MCD is trading within a descending channel extending since October of the year 2022 and also trading on both sides of the crucial EMA-50, and around the swing level at $267.98 (Fibonacci level 78.6%). The breach above the previous two lines usually leads MCD towards testing the top of the descending channel, as well as retesting the support below the channel when breaking below them, so they are critical lines that may determine the trend within the channel. On the bullish side, if MCD managed to breach above the descending channel and hold above it, then the level of $275.71 would be the initial target for the breach, and a further breach above it might also may signal the potential upcoming upside movement after the breach. Also, the levels between 279.90-281.67 would also be the next targets for MCD. If the MCD also managed to stabilize above the previous targets, then the Fibonacci extension level near the $300 level would be the farthest target, and that maybe followed by pullback to the level of 281.67. In the bear case, a breakdown below the crucial support area between EMA-200-100 as well as the dynamic support level and the Fibonacci level of 61.8% (the orange shaded areas), may invalidate the previous bullish hypothesis, and may push MCD to decline further towards the levels of $251.75-249.67.

META bullish momentum still going strong Meta Platforms, Inc. (symbol ‘META’ made a full recovery of the losses incurred in the fourth quarter of 2022 and is currently in a bullish momentum. The company’s earnings report for the fiscal quarter ending December 2022 is set to be released on Wednesday 1st of February, after market close. The consensus EPS for Q4 is $2,21 compared to Q4 2021’s $3,67. ‘META shares gained approximately 2.8% on Monday to close the day trading at $143.27 up approximately 20% year to date. The company after the massive layoffs of around 13,000 employees is looking forward and have recently announced a strategic partnership with NBA that will allow fans to purchase NBA-licensed apparel in the Meta Avatars Store and authenticated NBA League Pass access in Xtadium (The home of sports in the metaverse).’ said Antreas Themistokleous at Exness: ‘Even though EPS is lower than the respective one of Q4 in 2021 its is still higher than Q3 indicating the share is performing relatively well to overcome the difficulties lying ahead’ From the technical point of view the stock has performed very well covering the losses of the last quarter and currently performing well above all the technical resistances of all the moving averages. The price also manages to make a valid break above the daily bearish trendline and is currently trading between the upper band of the Bollinger bands and the 61.8% of the daily Fibonacci retracement level. With the Stochastic oscillator in the extreme overbought for almost a month and the upper band of Bollinger bands possibly acting as a resistance, we might witness a correction to the downside in the following sessions before resuming the overall bullish momentum. If this is the case then we might see some support around the $130 price area which is just above the 50% of the Fibonacci retracement and also the psychological support of the round number.

was that a flash crash 2.0 in mcd ms pltr tsm v nke NYSE seems to have had bad open liquidity issues. apparently large algo may have tried to sell at the open. from twitter: @ConsensusGurus "The largest dislocations from this morning's NYSE Flash Crash 2.0 - Multiple $100BN+ swings." @MFHoz The NYSE was hit by a "technical glitch" today, causing a trading halt for some of the most well-known global companies. It serves as a stark reminder of the fragility of our financial systems. It's a sign of something much bigger and more sinister at play. ------------- Im sure we will hear more over next days and weeks.

3 Amazing Lessons I learnt from McDonaldsI love McDonalds. There was a time where I was ranking different burgers from around the world. UK, France, South Africa, Dubai, America, Switzerland and Greece. And I only ranked about 4 burgers an 8 out of 10. I know you’re going to hate but… McDonalds Big Mc remains one of them I ranked 8 out of 10 – Delicious!. Anyway, so I love the burger, I love the story – if you’ve seen “The Founder” movie. And I love the lessons learned from the success story. And since 2013, I always enjoy writing articles on how other companies, entities and even individuals can teach you indirectly about trading. McDonalds is the one in the spot light for today! 3 lessons I learnt from McDonalds! The fast-food giant has been able to achieve massive success by keeping things simple, sticking to a proven system, and adapting to changes in the market. These same principles can be applied to trading the financial Lesson #1: Less is more… The company has built its success on a relatively small menu of simple, easy-to-understand options. Also the way to make the meals are so simple with easy ingredients you probably have at home. Well, traders can achieve better results by focusing on: • Small number of markets or securities • One or two systems • One or two time frames • One to three money management rules • Less time trading and more time holding Lesson #2: Find a System to Repeat The company has built a highly efficient and repeatable system for making and delivering food. Remember the scene in the movie “The Founder” where Ray Croc organised his system within a tennis court until mastered? It’s simple, it works – and it’s never died out. This has allowed them to replicate their success across thousands of locations worldwide. With trading, you should also look for a system that you can repeat and stick with it. I mean, by now my MATI Trader System – must feel like child’s play to you because of how I have taught you the system in and out. And I have shared with you hundreds of trade line ups already with Trading View. And with you seeing it the system everyday, it must feel second nature for spotting a trade by now right? Well, just like Rocket Science isn’t rocket science to a rocket scientist – That’s why you feel that way about my MATI Trader System… And if you have a system that you swear by, you’ll feel the same way I do. This can help you to avoid the pitfall of constantly switching strategies and missing out on long-term gains. Lesson #3: Adapt to Change McDonald's has also been able to adapt to changes in the market, such as: • Environment concerns • Consumer demand for healthier options • Relevant and trendy toys in Happy Meals • New neutral colour style restaurant catering to all nations and cultures around the world • More options for vegans and vegetarians They have and has been able to stay relevant and successful for decades. Similarly, traders need to be able to adapt to changes in the markets, whether it: Adding new markets to your watchlist Adjusting your Risk to Reward during favourable and unfavourable environments Shifts in economic conditions or changes in consumer preferences. This might mean adjusting your trading strategy slightly or seeking out new opportunities in different markets. You need to be able to adapt to change which is crucial for long-term success in the financial markets. And so, McDonald's has been successful by keeping things simple, sticking to a repeatable system, and adapting to change. Apply these principles to your own trading and you’ll find trading to be a walk in the park in the medium to long run… Do you like McDonalds and what would you rate the Big Mc? I won’t judge. Trade well, live free. Timon MATI Trader (Financial trader since 2003)
