Ukraine is dangerous, GOLD receives support from risksOn Wednesday (November 20) on the Asian market, spot gold continued to increase in the short term. Gold price has just retested the mark of 2,640 USD/ounce, increasing sharply to reach nearly 10 USD during the day. Growing concerns about the Russia-Ukraine crisis have caused gold prices to rise further. It is worth noting that geopolitical tensions flared up again due to information that the Biden administration authorized Ukraine to use US-made weapons to attack Russian territory last weekend. Geopolitical tensions, economic risks and a low interest rate environment have enhanced the appeal of gold. Bloomberg of the US commented that as the conflict entered its 1,000th day, Ukraine used its newly acquired long-range missile capabilities to attack a military base on Russian territory. Moscow has warned against such actions and stepped up threats of nuclear responses to conventional attacks. Russia's war in Ukraine has entered a dangerous new chapter On Tuesday local time, Ukrainian forces used the US Army Tactical Missile System (ATACMS) for the first time to attack a facility in Russia's Bryansk Oblast. The Russian Ministry of Defense confirmed that Ukraine used missiles from the US military's Tactical Missile System to attack Russia and that Russia's anti-missile system shot down 5 out of 6 missiles. On Tuesday local time, Russian President Vladimir Putin signed a decree approving a new version of Russia's basic national policy on nuclear deterrence, which took effect from the date of signing. The new version of the policy expands the range of countries and military alliances with which Russia can exercise nuclear deterrence, and proposes to consider "aggression against Russia by any non-nuclear state with the participation or support of nuclear states" is a "joint attack". against Russia. (Directly aimed at America) Bloomberg noted that two developments on Tuesday worried investors, causing investors to rush into safe-haven assets, especially gold. On the daily chart, gold tested the 0.618% Fibonacci retracement level at $2,640, which is an important technical point for the downtrend that readers should pay attention to through the price channel. Currently, gold still has conditions to decrease in price with the main trend from the price channel and the main pressure from EMA21 still maintained. On the other hand, the Relative Strength Index is also creating a curve as it approaches the 50 level, which shows that buying is slowing down. Technically, gold still has a more bearish outlook. However, if it breaks the price channel and rises above the EMA21 level, a new uptrend could open. During the day, the bearish technical outlook still prevails and the notable points are listed below.

2024-11-20 - priceactiontds - daily update - daxGood Evening and I hope you are well. tl;dr dax futures - Neutral. More sideways, all given levels still valid and another disappointing day for the bulls. Also a perfect doji when US closed. If you missed my weekly and the update from yesterday, catch up on those. Otherwise move on. comment: Neutral market around 19150. No deeper meaning until we see the next big move which also closes at the lows or highs. Range and pattern is getting too tight and we will likely see the big move tomorrow or Friday. current market cycle: trading range key levels: 18800 - 19360 bull case: No side has an advantage here. Midpoint of the weekly range is 19114 and market closed us session at 19143. Above 19300 we likely go to 19359 and if we break above that, we go much much higher. Invalidation is below 18869. bear case: Bears did not dip below 19000 which was good for the bulls but still a daily doji, so no deeper meaning. Bears want a daily close below 19000 bad. If they get it, chances are high that this bull trend is over and we will see much lower prices. Until then, play the range and don’t swing for the fences. Invalidation is above 19350. short term : Neutral. Max bullish above 19360 and max bearish below 18860. medium-long term - Update from 2024-10-19: 20000 is the goal for 2024, if bulls do not get it until year end, it will probably not happen for the next 5-10 years. This market is beyond overvalued and will drop 30-50% in the next 5 years. I have no doubts about that. That fact should not be relevant to your trading at all. current swing trade: None trade of the day: Market made only lower highs since bar 33 and selling it was ok on bar 42 or latest 55. Reasons to exit was bar 59 if bar 60 would have traded above it but it did not so bar 61 was a decent bull bar and 62 good follow through, had to get out of longs there latest. Could you also go long then? I would not. Too big of a risk that 15m 20ema is resistance and market is trying to test breakout price from bar 48, which it could not even get up to. I also think buying the double bottom 75 + 77 was ok.

2024-11-20 - priceactiontds - daily update - goldGood Evening and I hope you are well. tl;dr gold - Bullish target was met with 2650 and now it’s big decision time. Bear trend line and daily 20ema was hit. By Friday we will know which way market wants to go. Expecting sideways to down tomorrow but everything below 2600 would surprise me. comment : Very bullish week so far to potentially big resistance. My preferred path is a two legged correction and we are in the A of it. Market has to pull back soon but if bulls get above 2660, we will see 2700 soon. Last thing I want to do this week is looking for shorts in this. current market cycle: trading range key levels: 2620 - 2700 bull case: Bulls are in control again. They now only need a strong close above the daily ema to make the last bears run for the exits. Can they get it before a pullback? I doubt that. Not much more magic to it. Big bull trend is still valid but the peak euphoria is over and we will likely see more bearish legs in between since bears made big money previous 2 weeks. Invalidation is below 2600. bear case: Bears who sold late are trapped, they need a pullback to get out of their position. They are at 3 very important prices. Breakout retest is around 2650-2660, daily ema is here and the 50% retracement is at 2672. If these are not good enough for the market to pull back to 2600 or lower, nothing will. Invalidation is above 2670. short term : Neutral. Expecting a pullback and then another big rally to at least 2750. medium-long term - Update from 2024-11-17: Tough call for the rest of the year. If I had to guess I’d say that we rally to 2800 again before year end, just so we can sell off beginning of 2024 but it’s pure guesswork as of now. current swing trade: None trade of the day: Buying 2625, which market tried for 3 hours to close a 15m bar below and could not. Buying it was good for 350 ticks.

2024-11-19 - priceactiontds - daily update - daxGood Evening and I hope you are well. tl;dr dax futures - Neutral. Lower lows and lower highs but a nasty reversal from 18869. The buying was strong but still not good enough for the bulls to take control again. Bears are showing decent selling pressure but getting nowhere. I do think market wants to test higher tomorrow. 19250 is the first target, followed by 19300 and 19350. If 19200 turned resistance and bulls show weakness again, bears might do a real one and get to 18500. There is absolutely no more support until 18500 for the bulls. comment: tl;dr covered most of it. We closed in the middle of the current range, which is as neutral as it gets. I still favor the bulls but I was also wrong about the two previous sell offs and new lows, so maybe take my bias lightly. Market is in balance around 19150 and we have clear support and resistance for a week, despite the marginally lower lows. 18900 - 19330 is the range, play it until we have a 1h close above or below. current market cycle: trading range key levels: 18800 - 19700 bull case: Bulls need some follow through badly. 19250 and then 19300. If they break above 19360 tomorrow, we print 300 points higher. Invalidation is below 19100. bear case: Below 19100 bears take control again and I think the market can only do one thing so many times until one side gives up big time. If bears manage to print another low below 18869, we go down hard to 18500 or lower. Bears want to keep this below 19200. Invalidation is above 19350. short term: Neutral. Max bullish above 19360 and max bearish below 18860. medium-long term - Update from 2024-10-19: 20000 is the goal for 2024, if bulls do not get it until year end, it will probably not happen for the next 5-10 years. This market is beyond overvalued and will drop 30-50% in the next 5 years. I have no doubts about that. That fact should not be relevant to your trading at all. current swing trade: None trade of the day: Shorting the open due to news was amazing. Also buying 18900. Both trades were mostly momentum based but we also had a quadruple top to sell and a double bottom to buy. Hope you took at least one of them.

2024-11-19 - priceactiontds - daily update - sp500Good Evening and I hope you are well. tl;dr sp500 e-mini futures - Bullish bias still. The reversal was nasty and we had a very strong close. We are in a nested expanding triangle and if bears are strong, market won’t get above 5950. If bulls do, we go 5980 and the bear trend line next. I lean bullish. Measured move up from today gets us close to the ath and it’s the third try bears tried to close below the 50% retracement and failed. Good chance today was bears giving up and we melt again to a new ath. If we drop below 5900 again, I am probably wrong and bears taking over again. comment : Nasty reversal and a good close by the bulls. Can expect follow through tomorrow above 5950 up tom 5980 and test the bear trend line. Above that we print a new ath. Best for bears would be to keep this below 5950 and then they have a chance of testing down to 5900 again. I have a heavy bullish bias going into tomorrow as long as market does not drop below 5900 much again current market cycle: bull trend key levels: 5900 - 6100 bull case: Bulls want to test the bear trend line around 5980 and go above 6000 again. They do need to break above 5950 first, which could be resistance due to the expanding triangle pattern but I doubt it. They kept the market 3 days in a row above the 50% retracement and I don’t think bears are strong enough to try a fourth time tomorrow. Measured move up from today’s reversal leads to around 6036. Invalidation is below 5900. bear case: Bears had an amazing sell off but bulls bought it big time. Technically this could be seen as a bear flag, but bears would have to keep the market below 5950 for that. That’s their first target and then getting below 5900 again. Since we are seeing big time buying below 5900 and the selling was mainly due to news, I don’t think bears are favored. Invalidation is above 5950. short term: Bullish. Probably more squeezing late bears tomorrow and I still do have unreasonable insane targets above 6100 that could be hit over the next days-weeks. medium-long term - Update from 2024-11-16: So the top definitely qualifies as a blow-off top but the question if we continue further up, is still valid. It is possible that we are already inside the correction and if we continue below 5860, I highly doubt bulls can get above 6000 again. Given the current market structure, I won’t turn bear because the risk of another retest of the highs or even higher ones are just too big. current swing trade: Nope trade of the day: Buying 5855. Market printed a perfect inverted head & shoulders on the 1m tf, huge bull bars on a big volume increase. 3 almost too good to by true reasons to take the trade.

#NFP. Win big or feel the pain! Analysis from 11/19/24Currently, the coin is in a sideways trend, where asset distribution is taking place. A breakout above the resistance level will indicate buyer strength and the potential for further growth. Exiting such accumulation zones, especially in this market, will most likely result in an upward impulse, so it makes sense to try and catch this movement. However, if the $0.2350 level is lost, we will most likely head straight for a support test, after which we will have a clearer understanding of where the price is likely to move next (probably working from sales rather than purchases, as we are doing now).

BITCOIN IS GROWING STEP BY STEP TECHNICAL ANALYSIS + TRADE PLANTechnical Analysis Ascending Triangle Formation The chart displays an ascending triangle pattern, indicating a bullish trend continuation. The price has been forming higher lows while maintaining a relatively flat upper resistance level, suggesting that buyers are gradually gaining strength. Key levels to watch: Resistance: The price is approaching the resistance at $93,143 and $100,000. Support: The ascending trendline acting as support is near $86,721. Indicators: VMC Cipher B Divergences: The indicator shows a continuation of bullish momentum with green dots suggesting buying signals. Bullish Divergence: This is a confirmation of positive momentum and suggests the current trend could continue, especially if it breaks resistance. Relative Strength Index (RSI): RSI is at 56.62, indicating that Bitcoin is neither overbought nor oversold. It suggests that there is still room for upward movement before entering overbought territory (RSI > 70). Money Flow Index (MFI): The MFI is in the green, at 56.02, showing a steady inflow of capital, which supports the bullish outlook. It is not in the overbought range, further indicating the potential for continued upside. Stochastic Oscillator: The stochastic indicator shows values of 77.28 (fast line) and 76.05 (slow line), both suggesting that the price is in the upper range. Though it's near the overbought zone, it isn't extreme enough to signal an imminent reversal. Volume The volume is increasing with each bullish move, indicating strong buying pressure and confirming that the trend is supported by market activity. Key Price Levels: Resistance Zone: $93,143 - $100,000 Support Zone: $86,721 Next Target: A breakout above the $93,143 resistance could target new highs around $100,000 or higher if the market sentiment remains bullish. Trading Plan Entry Strategy: Buy Signal: A break above the resistance level at $93,143 would be a strong buy signal, with the expectation of a continuation to the next target near $100,000. Alternatively, a retracement to the support level at $86,721 could provide a good entry for a long position if the price rebounds from this level, confirming the ascending triangle pattern. Stop Loss Strategy: Stop Loss: Place a stop-loss order below the most recent swing low, around $86,000, to protect the position in case of a breakout failure. This provides a good risk-to-reward ratio if the price does not hold above the support trendline. Profit-Taking Strategy: First Target: The first target for profit-taking should be near $93,143 (initial resistance). Second Target: A breakout beyond this resistance can target $100,000 and possibly new all-time highs (ATH). Trailing Stop: Consider implementing a trailing stop once the price moves in your favor, allowing the position to stay open while locking in profits if the market reverses. Risk Management: Position Sizing: Based on the risk tolerance, adjust the size of your trades to ensure proper risk management. For example, risking 1-2% of your total capital on a single trade is advisable. Review Market Sentiment: Always monitor broader market conditions and Bitcoin-related news for any sudden changes that may affect the trend. Conclusion The current chart signals a bullish continuation for Bitcoin, supported by the ascending triangle pattern, bullish indicators, and increasing volume. A break above $93,143 would confirm the next move towards $100,000. As always, it's important to monitor the market for any shifts and adjust your trading plan accordingly.

GOLD continues to be supported by BidenOANDA:XAUUSD rallied sharply towards a second day of gains after six consecutive days of decline as the dollar's price momentum slowed and growing uncertainty over conflicts in Russia and Ukraine sparked safe-haven demand. As of the time of writing, spot gold has increased continuously the previous trading day to 2,622 USD/ounce, escaping the lowest level in 2 months last Thursday. OANDA:XAUUSD considered a safe investment in times of economic and geopolitical uncertainty, suffered its biggest weekly decline in more than three years last week because of Trump's tariff-leaning policy. Trump's nomination is seen as a potential cause of inflation, which could cause the Federal Reserve to slow down on interest rate cuts. Recent US support for Ukraine has increased tensions and affected safe-haven assets Part of the reason is that US President Biden announced that he will provide long-range missiles to Ukraine so that the country can attack deeper into Russian territory. This will make the war much more complicated, it should be seen as a step closer to direct confrontation between Russia and the US. Previously, Reuters reported that US President Joe Biden's administration on Sunday allowed Ukraine to use US-made weapons to attack deep into Russian territory, a major reversal of Washington's policy. about the conflict between Ukraine and Russia. Sources said Ukraine plans to launch its first long-range strike in the coming days but declined to reveal details due to security concerns about the operation. The Federal Reserve is widely expected to cut interest rates for a third time in December, although recent data suggests inflation's recovery toward its 2% target has stalled. About seven Fed officials will speak this week. Rising interest rates could put further pressure on gold by making non-yielding assets like gold less attractive. Analysis of technical prospects for OANDA:XAUUSD Although gold has recovered to break the falling price channel in the short term, in the medium term it still tends to lean towards the downside with the price channel as the trend and the main pressure from the EMA21 level. On the other hand, the uptrend RSI is also close to reaching the 50 level. The 50 level is considered a resistance or support point depending on the condition of the RSI above or below this level. However, gold may still increase a bit more with the 2,640USD position sent to readers in yesterday's publication, this is the position of the 0.618% Fibonacci retracement level. As long as gold remains within the price channel and below the EMA21 level, the technical outlook is tilted to the downside, and the day's highlights are listed below.

2024-11-18 - priceactiontds - daily update - daxGood Evening and I hope you are well. tl;dr dax futures - 19350 was my line in the sand for bulls to conquer and high of the day was 19359. Bulls doing their best to make 19150 support again and if it holds a third time tomorrow, we could see 19400 if bulls move above 19350 with some force. No interest in selling this. Play the range 19150 - 19350 until it’s broken. comment : Not a bullish close but bulls kept it above 19150 and that’s the breakout price and very important to hold. Below 19140 I expect 19000 again. Only objective for the bulls is to move with force above 19350 so we can melt higher to 19600+. No interest in selling this. Otherwise not much to write about on a sideways day, so have a look at my weekly outlook. current market cycle: trading range key levels: 18900 - 19700 bull case: 200 point range which will likely break tomorrow and I do think the upside breakout is more likely than to the downside. Bears now tried 4 times to get below 19150 and they could not do it again. Bulls are defending their spike from Thursday and that means higher prices are likely. Invalidation is below 19140. bear case: Bears failed 4 times at 19150 now. They will probably give up soon and will try again around 19500. If they break below the current range, a retest of 19000 is most likely. Can’t see this going below 19000 again for now. Invalidation is above 19350. short term: Neutral inside given range but any long below 19200 is reasonable. I lean bullish to break above 19350 and print a new ath this week. medium-long term - Update from 2024-10-19: 20000 is the goal for 2024, if bulls do not get it until year end, it will probably not happen for the next 5-10 years. This market is beyond overvalued and will drop 30-50% in the next 5 years. I have no doubts about that. That fact should not be relevant to your trading at all. current swing trade: None trade of the day: Shorting previous resistance 19350 was good for 200 points.

2024-11-18 - priceactiontds - daily update - oilGood Evening and I hope you are well. tl;dr oil - I talked about the previous low 66.72 extensively and today bears dipped below but bulls bought it with vengeance. We are on our way to 70 and a test of the bear trend line from the October high. I do expect the lows to be in and we go higher from here. Best for bulls would be to make 68 support and keep the market above, below I am probably wrong and we chop more at the lows. comment : If bulls get follow through to 70 tomorrow, bulls are in control again until they fail at the bear trend line (breakout above is possible). I do think the low 66.27 can hold. Right now it’s unclear if bulls are as strong as today looks because it’s only an expanding triangle over the past 5 trading days and bulls could not close today above the daily 20ema which is 20 points above us. So it’s possible that the descending triangle continues for more days before we get a breakout. Not much interest in selling this though. Will continue to long against 67. current market cycle : trading range (big triangle on the daily chart) key levels: 66 - 70 bull case: Bulls need follow through and test 70 tomorrow. A close above it would turn the market always in long and bulls in full control then. The bear trend line is the next target to break but until that happens, 70 is likely resistance and we go more sideways. Invalidation is below 66.27 bear case: Bears want to keep the trading range at the lows going since they are making new lows. Selling above 69 has been profitable for the past week and until that changes and bulls trap bears, we can expect bears to keep trying. Invalidation is above 71. short term: Neutral but looking for longs when it’s clear that bulls can keep the 1h ema support. Will otherwise wait for market to come down to 67/67.5 and scale into longs. No interest in selling. medium-long term - Update from 2024-10-20: No idea where this wants to go in the remaining 2 months of this year so I am neutral until we have a better pattern. The big triangle on the weekly chart is alive and until that changes, no more updates. current swing trade: Nope trade of the day: Buying the liquidity grap down to 66.27. The price action there on the very low tf was really interesting. Basically bears just left. Two more quick retries but only made higher lows and then a giant give up bar by the bears for 123 ticks on the 1h tf.

Cruel sell-off week, GOLD down more than 4%OANDA:XAUUSD This week suffered an extremely brutal sell-off, falling more than 4%, the largest decline since September 2023. Trump is the biggest overall reason for OANDA:XAUUSD plummet Gold had a pretty good month in October, rising along with the US Dollar which was supported by expectations of a possible victory for Donald Trump. Gold prices had previously even extended their gains despite a clear recovery in US Treasury yields across all maturities. However, things have changed significantly since Trump was elected US president The main concerns surround the possibility that the Trump administration will again use tariff measures. These measures will likely spur inflation again and could eventually prompt the Fed to reverse its ongoing easing cycle. The main factor behind gold's surge earlier this year was ongoing geopolitical tensions, especially the escalating conflict between Israel and Hamas and the protracted war in Ukraine. Whenever there is new news about the worsening conflict situation, investors flock to safe-haven assets such as gold. However, recently since Trump's victory, the geopolitical situation and conflicts are showing positive signs, which will create the basis for further gold selling pressure. The Fed is also creating pressure on OANDA:XAUUSD Slightly hawkish comments from Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell last week boosted the dollar and dampened interest in gold. Powell said Thursday that the central bank is in no hurry to reduce borrowing costs while the economy continues to be strong, the labor market is solid and inflation is above its 2% target. After Powell's speech, investors lowered the likelihood of the Fed cutting interest rates by 25 basis points at its December meeting, from 72% to 61.9%, according to CME Group's FedWatch data. In addition to Powell's comments, Boston Fed President Susan Collins said the Fed is in no hurry to cut interest rates. Finally, Chicago Fed President Austan Goolsbee left open the possibility of a December Fed meeting, adding, "The debate over neutral interest rates could slow the pace of rate cuts." However, at the end of last Friday's trading session, despite positive US data, the Dollar was still under pressure as market participants took profits before the weekend. That limited gold's decline after falling to a 2-month low of $2,536/oz. Highlights this week This week, gold traders will pay attention to data from the Federal Reserve, unemployment claims and the release of the S&P Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI). Overall, this week will be a week with quite a few notable data and events, other than unexpected events such as "Trump is sick and Trump threatens to fire Jerome Powell". Analysis of technical prospects for OANDA:XAUUSD Although gold recovered very slightly this past weekend, it still ended the week with 6 consecutive days of decline. Gold's recovery keeps it above the 1% Fibonacci level at $2,548 but there is still plenty of room ahead as the most recent pressures from the lower edge of the price channel and horizontal resistance at $2,588 join the Fibonacci level. A 0.786% retracement will still prevent the recovery of gold prices. On the other hand, it still has a technical trend that is completely tilted towards a bearish outlook with the price channel being the main trend in the short term. In addition, the Relative Strength Index is still pointing down without reaching the oversold area, showing that there is still room for price decline ahead. Looking ahead, as long as gold remains within the price channel and below the $2,600 raw price, price increases should only be considered short-term technical corrections without affecting the current primary trend to the downside. The downtrend in gold prices will be noticed again by the positions listed below.

WTI continues to decline, even as Biden reverses policyAccording to CFTC data, the net long position of crude oil speculators decreased by 21,944 lots to 71,587 lots, reflecting that market expectations of rising crude oil prices have cooled. TVC:USOIL fell during the Asian session on Monday (November 18), trading around $66.90/barrel, a drop equivalent to 2.43% on the day. Basically, although the geopolitical situation is heating up, its impact on oil prices is limited. The main reason is that global demand is expected to continue to decline, which is an important factor limiting the recovery of oil prices. EIA inventories also increased last week, which is not favorable for a supply-side recovery in oil prices. According to CFTC data, the net long position of crude oil speculators decreased by 21,944 lots to 71,587 lots, reflecting that market expectations of rising crude oil prices have cooled. Biden reverses policy on Russia-Ukraine conflict, allowing Ukraine's military to use US weapons to attack Russia's homeland President Joe Biden's administration has allowed Ukraine to use US-made weapons to attack Russia's homeland Russian land. This is a major reversal in Washington's policy in the Russia-Ukraine conflict. Sources said Ukraine plans to launch its first long-range strike in the coming days, but they did not disclose details due to concerns about operational security. There are still two months until President-elect Trump will take office on January 20. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has for months asked for Ukraine's military to use US weapons to attack military targets deep inside Russia. Biden's policy reversal has created some risks in the market, but it is also not considered good support for oil prices when there is a very high possibility that when Trump takes office, all policies related to the War in Ukraine will be abolished. On the daily chart, TVC:USOIL is still maintaining the main downtrend sent to readers in previous publications with the current short-term target at about 66.44USD. The relative strength index (RSI) is pointing down with a steep slope and away from the oversold area, suggesting a broad bearish outlook ahead. As long as WTI crude oil remains below its 21-day moving average (EMA21), it will still have a bearish near-term trend outlook. And once WTI crude oil is sold below 66.44USD it will have the conditions to fall a bit more with the target then being around 65.28USD. During the day, the downtrend of WTI crude oil will be noticed again by the following technical levels. Support: 66.44 – 65.28USD Resistance: 68.11 – 68.77USD

#202446 - priceactiontds - weekly update - wti crude oil futuresGood Evening and I hope you are well. tl;dr wti crude oil futures: Neutral until bulls do more. 66.72 is still the low to be broken if bears want more downside, otherwise it’s a descending triangle with clear support around 67. It does look like bulls need an event to help them. Every small rip is sold and it’s a matter of time until one side gives up and we see another breakout. Last thing I want to be is bullish on this but until we have a daily close below 67, it’s huge support. Quote from last week: comment: Market is now trying for 4 weeks to get below 73 and still failing. Friday’s bar is decent enough that bears could have given up and market has to drop down to 68 or lower to 67 to find more buyers. The trading range 68 - 73 is still not broken and until it is, that is the range to play. I just expecting bears to be stronger next week than the bulls. comment: Huge support around 67 and bears need a daily close below for lower prices. Bulls a daily close above 69 for 70 and potentially 70.4. No more magic to it and I won’t make stuff up for the fun of it. Market has no direction for weeks and the range is tighter than my food exit. As long as market does not drop below 66.72, bulls are ok but it’s really tough to make money as a bull in this. If bears break that price, we go 65 next, followed by 63.5. current market cycle: trading range (descending triangle) key levels: 67 - 71 bull case: At this point I am too lazy to come up with something for either side. I follow the range and past pattern. Last week was bearish and support held. Next week I expect trading above 69-71. I stop being lazy once the given range breaks. Maybe long range missiles onto Russian Oil depots will help this break out. Invalidation is below 66.7. bear case: Either break below 66.7 or give up again. Below 66.7 we see 65.74 and then 65 next. Invalidation is above 69. outlook last week: short term : Neutral again. Range is unbroken, play it until it breaks. → Last Sunday we traded 70.38 and now we are at 67.02. Bad outlook but will probably touch 70 tomorrow or Tuesday again. Probably was just off due to Sunday-Sunday. short term: Neutral. medium-long term - Update from 2024-11-10: Unless an event comes up, this will very likely close around 70 for the year. current swing trade: None chart update: Nothing worth mentioning.

#202446 - priceactiontds - weekly update - gold futuresGood Evening and I hope you are well. tl;dr gold futures: Neutral. This selling is bonkers tbh. It’s so unbelievably rare that markets have such a strong rally and do not respect the trend line at all at such important prices like 2700 and 2600. A bounce is overdue but man, being bullish on Gold has not paid for more than 2 weeks. 2570 is a bad spot to trade. We can easily test down to 2500 before we see a bigger bounce. Can’t be anything but neutral. Quote from last week: comment: Bear surprise because they just melted through 2700 and the bull trend line on Wednesday. Bulls retested the bull trend line and got rejected. Bears were also strong enough to keep the market below the daily 20ema and as long as that is the case, bears are in control for now. 2600 is my lower target for the bears and sideways 2600-2720 is the most likely path forward imo. comment: Market took 48 days to gain the 10% we now lost in 14. This selling is climactic and thus unsustainable. We will soon see a bigger bounce, if not a complete reversal to 2800 again. On the daily chart it looks nasty but on the weekly chart tis but a scratch. Bears closed all but one open bull gap and technically just retested the breakout price for the previous bull leg. This selling is strong enough to seriously doubt much higher prices than 2800. What I do expect is some bounce and more sideways movement between 2600-2800 before we could test lower prices (2300-2400) next year. For now it’s too early to go long, since market has not found a credible bottom yet but since market has not traded much below the weekly 20ema for a year. Swing longs with stop 2480ish are very reasonable. current market cycle: Bull trend on the brink of being over, either bulls turn hard and go above 2600 or 2400 awaits. It’s possible that we have already transitioned into a trading range and the ath 2801 will be the top of it. key levels: 2500 - 2800 bull case: Right at the weekly 20ema, which has been bought for over a year. Also retested the July high, which was previous resistance for 5 months until the market finally broke strongly above it. And also trading at the lower bull trend line which started in February. Those are more than enough perfect reasons to buy this dip and I do expect bulls to try at least retesting 2620 early next week and likely the current bear trend line around 2650. The 4h 20ema has been resistance since the selling began and once bulls conquer it again, we could see acceleration upwards. Invalidation is below 2500. bear case: Bears know the selling is climactic and a proper bounce is overdue. Can they get 2500 before we get 2650 is the biggest question imo and as always, I don’t have a crystal ball. I will see if 2560 continues to be support on Monday and if we can break above 2580, which was been big resistance on Friday. Bears want to stay below 2600 and the longer they can, the less aggressive the bulls will be. 4h 20ema was resistance for the whole move down and until claimed, it continues to be. Invalidation is above 2630. outlook last week: short term: Neutral around 2700. If we stay below 2720, I can see a third leg down to retest 2650 or even go down to 2600/2620. Above 2730 I favor the bulls to go higher again. → Last Sunday we traded 2694 and now we are at 2570. Bad outlook. Bears were much stronger than expected. short term: Neutral until bulls claim 2630 again. 2540 just has to hold or if we spike down to 2500 we would have to see huge buying or this will flush down more. Bears are in full control until market trades above the 4h ema again. medium-long term - Update from 2024-11-17: Tough call for the rest of the year. If I had to guess I’d say that we rally to 2800 again before year end, just so we can sell off beginning of 2024 but it’s pure guesswork as of now. current swing trade: None chart update: Highlighted possible bear trend lines and deleted closed bull gap.

#202446 - priceactiontds - weekly update - sp500 e-mini futuresGood Evening and I hope you are well. tl;dr sp500 e-mini futures: Neutral until bulls come around or bears get below 5800. This pullback is too good for bulls not to buy and I have no interest in selling this. If this goes to 5800 without me, so be it. I think after such a big rally with follow through buying above 6000, a retracement to 50% is a buy and not a sell. Of course this can fail and bears are doing the real deal here. Therefore I wait for confirmation but bias is bullish. Quote from last week: comment: Same logic here as for dax. Bears failed to get below 5700 and on Tuesday market went the other direction. Wednesday was certainly a huge bull surprise and we went high enough that it opens even higher targets. The rally lost steam on Thursday/Friday, which could result in a pullback first. I draw the line for bulls around 5850, if we drop below, we might as well go 5800 followed by 5730. comment: 50% retracement hit and market closed above it on Friday. My preferred path for next week is a huge bull reversal higher. Is this likely after 2 strong bear days? No it’s not, so I have to wait for either side to show a clear new direction or continuation. If this goes to 5800 without me, so be it. I think after such a big rally with follow through buying above 6000, a retracement to 50% is a buy and not a sell. current market cycle: Bull trend key levels: 5850 - 6050 (above 6050, 6200 comes in play) bull case: I do think bulls have to reverse big time from 5877 or risk dropping down to 5800 on Monday. If Monday goes strongly above 5930, we will likely print 6000 the same day or Tuesday. First target for the bulls is a close above the 1h 20ema around 5920 and then 5950. Above we will see acceleration upwards. Invalidation is below 5860ish. bear case: Bears had a big surprise follow through day on Friday and if they can keep the momentum up, this trend is in serious question. Below 5860 we will accelerate down to 5800 and the bull trend line. I highly doubt that if we print 5800 before 6100, that we will see prices above 6000 for a long time. Invalidation is above 5950. outlook last week: short term: I want to join the bulls but need a pullback first or a strong momentum break above 6030. Zero bearish thoughts as of now. → Last Sunday we traded 6025 and now we are at 5896. Bad outlook. Bad. short term: I want to join the bulls again. Need strong confirmation first though. Still no interest in selling as of now. medium-long term - Update from 2024-11-16: So the top definitely qualifies as a blow-off top but the question if we continue further up, is still valid. It is possible that we are already inside the correction and if we continue below 5860, I highly doubt bulls can get above 6000 again. Given the current market structure, I won’t turn bear because the risk of another retest of the highs or even higher ones are just too big. current swing trade: None chart update: Moved 50% retracement up, based on the recent bull leg.
