BTCUSD: Bitcoin Update 2nd August 09:54 Bst 05:54 Est Bitcoin made the double bottom at 7465 after a little spike lower to 7453 on low volume overnight before reversing higher again. It's still a little weird that it stopped where it did. It may be manipulation and maybe not. It's not easy to say for sure. But it was a little strange and means we need to stay...
DJIA Dow Jones Industial Average Futures: DJIA1! This was a great short overnight on the break below 25257 line for a fall to the next line at 25094. It fell to this level exactly. Perfect, technically speaking. It should now make a rally attempt back as high as 25245-25257 range at best before it falls away again. This price action would also form a head and...
SandP 500 SPX500USD The head and shoulders formation mentioned in earlier posts has duly formed its right shoulder over the last 24 hours or so - it's higher than it should be for a perfect H&S but nevertheless it still looks quite powerful. It carries with it a minimum downside target at 7242 which is close to the fixed support line at 2740. It was a sell...
Bitcoin Chart Updates XBT A slow weekend of range trading has given way to an equally slow start come Monday. It's held up well through Saturday and Sunday but here is still no intererst above the 8298 line as yet. Spikes of desire off the 8070 line and rejection spikes above of equal dimensions from the 8298 line show equal indecision here at these levels. Unless...
Bitcoin Bitmex Chart Update 26th July Same copy as last chart but without text all over it. If you prefer this way please hit the agree button and will change - if you prefer the text (for twitter mostly) please hit the other one. Feedback and alternative views are appreciated too ; ) Bitcoin was a buy on a break above the 8160 line yesterday (though by time...
GE General Electric Not Dead Yet It's been a long time since the last update on GE - it's not been warranted either by the look of it. It's still unloved and untrusted. Depending on profile, this looks like one to accumulate at the these levels. After spending months in a relentless down-trend that began with the break below 30 (several months before any bad...
Bitcoin Update 26th July 11:16Est 06:16Est Bitcoin was a buy on a break above the 8160 line yesterday (though by time comment went live it had already broken higher, sorry- busy day yesterday all round) It was also a buy if missed the first break on a return to the 8160 line overnight, with the low being 8163 since then. But the rally is a little lame so far...
S&P 500 SPX500USD Of the 3 charts followed for S&P 500 index, this one has been the most reliable recently. We were looking for S&P strength as the last but one of the Fangs report earnings with Amazon on 26th after hours. Google has helped overnight. After triple bottoming at the 2790 support line the S&P has rallied higher, making a little spike off the next...
Bitcoin Update 24th July 09:42 Bst 04:42 Est The break higher duly came at the rather strange hour of 05:00 Bst and midnight Est. Volume has been quite high though not spectacular. Not much follow through in London though. It's the first time Bitcoin has made such a small surge following a break-out higher and it hasn't reached any clear resistance level...
Bitcoin Bitmex Update Not much has changed overnight. It was still a buy on tests of the 7355 line but only for scalps... If you bought on the second test of this level overnight raise the stop to 7438 for now. The spikes above price suggest it's still not wanted much above 7500 so far. The rest stays the same for now, a repeat of yesterday as nothing has changed...
Trading Major Markets on Margin: Part 2 ...You need a game plan. You need a system. You need stops. You need to understand true risk management and try to keep it as simple as possible at the same time . You need discipline. You need courage to buy when others are selling and to sell when others buying - if the correct signals are present to do so. You need...
Trading Major Markets 1 of 2 You've probably already learned a lot through trading Bitcoin. Those skill-sets are super scalable. Often am in too much of a hurry to cover other markets to have time to lay out stops and risk reward ratios - hoping that you're experienced enough to work them out for yourself when I miss doing them- which will be quite often in fast...
Dow Jones Futures DJIA1! 10:15bst/05:15est 20th July Despite the counter rally this index still looks weak technically. It should start to come off from around here and from the upper falling dynamic from the recent highs at 25035 at best. It should come back to the overnight low at 24902-24850 range later today. It must hold and bounce here to avoid...
FVX Longer Term Outlook for Rates Since Yellen retired in February FVX has risen to test the the junction of the upper parallel at the same point in time as it hit the fixed resistance line at 29.83. Since then it's been consolidating inside a slowly forming pennant formation with a spike down to the 25.46 line almost exactly before it pushed higher again. Though...
10 Year T Note TNX 'Nothing trends like long term rates' is perhaps one of the oldest stock market adages there is, along with 'buy the rumor, sell the event'... Things don't change much because people don't change much at the core, beneath the veneer. Fear and greed affect us just the same way that they affected our fathers and grandfathers, pretty much. The...
Bitcoin Bitmex Chart Update XBT After 36 hours of consolidation Bitcoin has held above the key 7265 level after a spike low at 7243 on this feed and since then has survived a couple more retests. It's not ready to fall away yet therefore. Looks as if it will make another attempt to touch 7615 and maybe spike into the uppermost parallel again as yesterday - this...
Saturday 14:11 gmt 11:11est Bitcoin Bitmex Chart Update: Key Levels Saturday Back to Black - cannot see wicks as clearly on white background :( Yesterday's price action was tricky to say the least. Lost 5 points on the first short and then another 15 on a long above 6545 before at last capturing 140 or so points on the final short from 6535 to 6395 overnight....
Bitcoin Continuation pattern forming after the failed break earlier. Just a bear flag so far. 6710 first support and if it's going to bounce it should be from the lower parallel of the nascent pattern - but there's no real interest A worry for any brave bulls at this point. In very near term we may get a bit of buying into US open - may regret it later but...
