Here is a trade setup I am monitoring. LINKUSD tends be lower volume. On the 15m chart there is a bullish Cup & Handle. I am watching for a 50% re-traceemnt of the handle & then to see if price breaks out at the top of Cup Neck-line. On the 1HR & 4HR charts there seems to be some action as price comes off D/bottoms.
You can see here that Gold has broken support on the 15m chart. I am short for a while but I have several long term CFD's Long gold positions as overall I see its bullishness especially with the USD in free-fall this week and the USA moving on interest rates next month, however USDX is showing some strength today but many believe it could drop to the 100 level...
Thanks to a very bullish Head 'n' Shoulders pattern on 1-5M timeframes Silver has posted a very strong close. You can see here on the daily it's broken out very well compared to Gold & the Silver price still has some catching up to do following its' sell-off in July.
XAU USD is starting to sell-off and 1 hour into Australian trading day, 3rd hour of the New Zealand trading day. Gold is in a supply area of the RSI and Stochastics across all of the timeframes. I plan to take this short for a day or 2 unless buyers come pouring in from nowhere, unlikely but still possible with all of the gold-bulls around the world & given...
An hour into trading of the New Zealand Oceania & Asian session, the week opener, EURUSD is already showing weakness. I see a good short trade here across the Asian session and possibly running into European & New York session. On the flip-side, there is also weakness in the USD, see my recent chart on USDX. However, I don't see this real weakness playing...
The EUR looks very oversold against the Poles' at the present. I took a very small lot size in this trade. Always slippage in Oceania at the commencement. We pay a premium living down-under! regards Chris
* The USD could see some weakness this week, probably not coming until mid-week price possibly propelled by double/bottom structures on mid-timeframes, however the Daily timeframe is indicative of some weakness with price below the moving averages. It's possible later in the trading week the USD could retreat to the 100.60 - 100.85 zone where there is...
Bullish W/bottom & Head n shoulders setup. * Buy with care.
Gold is very bullish at present going into mid-Septembers' interest rate decision in the USA which some are saying 'is in the bag' as a reduction of at least 0.25%. This is very bullish for the Gold price as the USD becomes weaker on an interest rate reduction. However, there is still about 4 weeks of trading until the interest rate decision is handed down to...
The smaller crypto's are supported by a bullish bitcoin currently which I have a distinct feeling may stay bullish this coming week. I've been going against the grain all weekend against the naysayer's on Bitcoin. See my other charts today. I hope you're having a good weekend & doing something other than the markets like myself. Cheers, Chris
2 Hour chart guys, keep an eye on the break-out of the triangle. Disclaimer: I never bet as much on Crypto due to it's volatility. But I think we are heading into bullish territory for Crypto this coming week. Please take a look at all of my analysis on bitcoin (just today.. there is about 6 charts at least) Cheers, Chris
I don't use trend-lines a great deal, because they are objective and what I mean is that traders have different ideas on where to place them. So I constructed several trend lines on the Daily-chart for BTC USD above 3 lines & below 2 lines. Well guess what? Current price is sitting on the 200 EMA (which looks to be sloping up soon, note that 200 EMA is dead-set...
So long as the BTCUSD price holds up during weekend trading this might pop to the upside soon, let's see how it plays out or if I get hammered down. There are opposing sell Head 'N' Shoulders setups on this same trade which complicates things a bit.
Sorry guys, the last chart weekly was a bit busy on the eyes. Try this one. Analysis below. ****************************************************************************************** I wanted to take apart the bitcoin selloff due to the M-TOP that formed on the weekly chart in 2024. M-TOPS will always form as price-action increases and profits are locked in...
I wanted to take apart the bitcoin selloff due to the M-TOP that formed on the weekly chart in 2024. M-TOPS will always form as price-action increases and profits are locked in by traders buying at lower prices. In case you find it hard to read the chart. The price basically dropped a further 19% when the neck was properly breached by the 1 July weekly candle...
Thanks for reading, I earlier posted the bitcoin 1HR, 4HR & bullish Weekly cup n handle formation on Weekly chart. Here is the Daily timeframe. You can see the big green zone is a huge buy-order block but importantly at time of writing the current price is getting support right on the 200 EMA. I am thinking some bullish price-action returning to bitcoin &...
Firstly, on bitcoin note the bullish Cup & Handle pattern that sure has been in formation for a long time. On the 1HR & 4HR charts price is getting support on the 200 EMA & 50 EMA respectively. Ideally on the 1HR chart we want the 200 EMA to form underneath the 50 EMA. Digressing a bit, my feeling is that next week precious metals like Gold will not perform...
On the 1HR chart for Elrond, which I must point out is currently very thin volume, but I think this volume will pick up soon, you can see here on the 1HR that the H & S bullish pattern on 1HR price appears to be retracing & retesting the H & S setup zone near neckline. Possible Trade Idea: Scale in with some Buy small orders just in case it winds back to $25...
