After another face melting rally in the stock market, the cryptocurrency markets again traded sideways. Is it me or are crypto markets becoming the more rational and less emotionally traded market? Probably not. Crypto, however is my favorite leading indicator and to be honest it'll let us know whether the markets are going parabolic or could be tamed in the near...
With the stock market bouncing higher off support I felt it would be a no brainer to scan through some chart for some high probability trades. Luckily, I found one... Twilio . You're Saying buy a Stock up 200%? Yes, I am saying that buying Twilio isn't all that bad given the set up. Regardless of whether Twilio is up 200% since the March 16 low price action is...
It has been a while since I last posted. Sometimes we must put life in front of our side job! Regardless, I thank you all who have been following me and continued to throughout my hiatus! With the stock market having "topped out" last week and now crypto breaking key channel supports I think it is a good time to reemphasize how crypto has been a leading indicator...
Here is a gem I discovered over the last few days. The Trade Desk, Inc. Let's check out two charts I am focusing on. Clean Patters Win...Most of the Time Below you'll see the daily chart of TTD. Notice the one month long consolidation just below new all-time highs. The consolidation is developing into a gorgeous bull flag set up. Volume confirms, as it is for...
After posting nearly 25% gains last week Ethereum is now taking a breather before potentially heading higher to meet its inverse head & shoulder target. Bitcoin on the other hand...well it continues to consolidate sideways within a symmetrical triangle formation. I won't pretend to know which direction I think the market is heading. Symmetrical triangles are...
Been busy with life lately so my posts have been less often. Nevertheless, I do always keep an eye on the charts and when I spot something that requires a post I deliver. This morning I want to talk about the Silver. Remember when Silver outperformed Gold a few weeks ago? Well based on what I am seeing on the chart that may happen again in the coming week(s)!...
As the stock market goes so will crypto. Historically I like viewing crypto as a leading indicator of the general market. I believe Bitcoin and company are once again signaling a change in trend throughout the markets. Today U.S. markets shot up at the open but as close approached the strongest index, the Nasdaq-100 gave up nearly all its gains of the day while...
I posted on Tezos a week or so ago. On the post I noted how price was potentially establishing a higher low. Well, today I update you with confirmation. Below is the daily chart of Tezos. Here, I placed whaat I believe is the bullish channel of Tezos. Keep in mind that channels do not have to be perfect. At times price will overshoot the channel. This simply...
On Friday after the market closed, the Gilead drug Remdesivir's data was released fo the public to digest. It wasn't all that promising. Honestly, it could have saved a sell off in the markets late Friday. Now that the news has passed I expect the markets to shrug it off. As of writing the futures markets are up nearly 1%. On this post we are going over Bitcoin...
One thing that has been a constant for the past few months has been how correlated the crypto and stock markets have been. This afternoons post will be on the current state of the crypto markets after seeing how the U.S. equity markets closed the week. Just a heads up, it was a bullish close to the week. Let's get into the charts! The Bears are Dead I titled...
A few days ago I mentioned that I exited my Tesla position. My reasoning was somewhat based on what I went over yesterday. That there was a historic divergence taking place within the markets. The second is based on how price looks. As a trader I have come to realize that price is king above all indicators. No matter how positive indicators may look, if price is...
Last night I began to think whether I wanted to be on the long side of this market this very second? It's a fair question for any investor and at this point probably technical traders are asking this question. There is a historically obvious divergence going on in the market. The Nasdaq-100 is currently 3% away from matching its all time high while the S&P 500...
At present, Bitcoin is consolidating just below 10,000 resistance and is gearing up for a moon shot to all time highs! Or is it? Let's take a look at some charts of the King of Crypto, Bitcoin. Infamous Swing High Over the evening Bitcoin reacted positively off a 9500 support, a level it broke out from a few days ago. If you follow me on twitter, I mentioned...
What a time to be a trader...and what a day! U.S. markets gapped up and held their gains throughout todays session after Moderna, Inc. reported positive phase 1 results of a potential Covid-19 vaccine. Could it really be that simple for the bulls? It'll be interesting to see how the market reacts when the Fed Chair Jerome Powell speaks at a scheduled Senate...
Tezos (XTZ), currently listed as the #10 cryptocurrency by market capitalization hasn't had as bad of a year as other altcoins. Between October 2019 and February 2020, XTZ endured a mini bull run, increasing the value of its token nearly 360%. Presently, XTZ is exhibiting signs of continued consolidation. Let's go ahead and take a look at the XTZ/BTC pair. ...
Yesterday I noted how strong the market leaders remained after the Fed Chair spoke on Wednesday and that the end of session rally was impressive enough to make the bears worried. Well, the market followed through in another meaningful way despite historically low retail sales and industrial production numbers on Friday. Although the weekly candle close doesn't...
Yesterday, U.S. equities closed in the positive after posting losses early in the trading session. It was an impressive rally off the lows, with strong buying across the board. Notably, market leaders such as Tesla and Zoom were able to hold support during the decline, further cementing the bullish case for more gains in the coming weeks. This morning we look at...
Apologies for not posting yesterday. I was trapped with work and mentally drained from all the news coverage of our Fed Chair Jerome Powell. Honestly, it was a disappointment in terms of price action. For stock market bears, today there has been a lack of follow through to the down side. Yes, that should keep you up at night if you are short this market. The gold...
