Introduction
If traders back in the day would have had the modern technical analysis tools they could have forecasted the market crashes more easily. Once the past is gone it's gone forever, but we can always go back to learn from it. Those who ignore the past are doomed to repeat it. In this publication I back tested a couple of tools which basically detect...
In short, we don't think so.
In the chart above, you're seeing the 10y30y spread and the 10y yield.
The 10s30s is a barometer of the inflation risk premium.
And quite frankly, the market isn't buying that inflation will be sustained.
Yes, the 10y yield is indicating perhaps to many that there is some kind of inflation risk, but from the Macrodesiac view, all...
A bond is a contractual agreement between an issuer and the bondholder. Owning a bond is like enjoying a stream of future cash flows.
There are several important features that every bondholder must know before acquiring them:
• The bond properties – issuer, maturity, principal, coupon rate and frequency, and the currency in which they are denominated. These...
What is Fundamental Analysis?
Fundamental analysis is a way of looking at the forex market by analysing economic, social, and political forces that may affect currency prices. The idea behind this type of analysis is that if a country's current or future economic outlook is good, its currency should strengthen (Baby Pips - www.babypips.com)

Head and Shoulders is one of the most reliable patterns in trading. You could find the stats on this - I've long forgotten them.
Many H&S pattern fail and you have to be prepared to take controlled affordable losses when engaging them. But when they do fall in your favour, they could be big earners.
As always, these patterns do not 'predict' - they create...
I commented previously we are in the Wave 5 of an Elliot Wave. Currently, we are seeing a micro Wave and we are at Wave 3. We will be heading towards 58k in a weeks time and retrace to 54k before hitting 64k. As you can see, the micro Wave 5 (blue bubble) and the bigger Wave 5 (green bubble) are very close
At times I find myself locked in to trying to find a better entry while my trade plan is setting up during the day. More often than not, when the internal battle is won by the impatient voice in my head,
I sneak into a trade early and pay the price for it.
Well... today was one of those days
I'm not sitting here saying that my set-ups are always right, nor am I...
This can be an opportunity for equity long-term investors to get involved in TESLA Stock . I personally I'm about to buy few shares During the week after more confirmations
Type INDEX:BTCUSD into the search box and instantly access a complete trading history for Bitcoin. Our new BTCUSD Index goes back to 2010, which means you can chart the earliest days of Bitcoin back when few understood it or even knew about it.
Do you remember when Bitcoin was trading for under 10 cents? Or its first big breakout in October 2010? The early days...
Study of altcoin market cap. This metric excludes BTC. Already have a daily cross on the 50 SMA over the 100 and 200. Expecting the 100 to cross the 200 SMA toward the end of the month and the crossover will be complete for positive proof of upside PA and buying pressure in alts. A HL close will confirm at crossover.
Buying dips can be tricky, the issue is knowing if it's an actual dip or a full trend reversal. I used to think buying at a lower price to double down on an investment going the wrong way was a good idea. However, after reading a book called the Zurich Axioms by Max Gunther - the penny actually dropped. In essence, profit is profit. It does not have to be made...
I have put together the basics of how to read a chart without indicators.
This is a key skill for anyone who wants to become a profitable trader. Clearly theres much more that goes into reading charts than just what is here but this is the key foundations of reading how price works and how to make trade entries with a good chance of profitability.
If you have...
Recent activity looking similar to the Sept 2020 correction. Will look for a retest of the trend line to place long trade. Would expect such a move late next week, but could trigger early depending on today's US NF Payrolls outcome.
If price breaks below trend, and below 12160-190 level, I will be looking to short NAS100 down to 11k.
The MACD is one of the most commonly used indicators as it can help traders identify the strength of a movement, as well as direction, momentum and likely duration of a trend.
In this video we use the TradingView Screener to filter all 10,000+ US stocks and ETFs down to a small handful of shares that we can then go through and review.
The filter was set to look...
I have been reluctant to say this before, and I kept referring to the markets as "mixed" or "turbulent"
I think it is safe to say now that the market will experience bearish conditions, anywhere from a marked and distinct correction, up to an including a 'crash' similar to that of last year around this exact same time.
Many people worry when they see bearish...
Defining a single market indicator in TradingView -
I thought I would share a couple things that may help others. I’m new to trading, so if anyone has any feedback, or comments, or if I got anything wrong - please let me know.
My goal was (as the bottom has been falling out of the market) to understand the relative performance of my portfolio in relation to the...
I get this question from time to time. Which is better ? Diversify your stock portfolio or place all bets in one sector ?
The answer really depends.
You heard of people becoming millionaires trading cryptocurrencies, high risk stocks like Gamestop, AMC Entertainment, IPOs, commodities and what have you.
Personally, I prefer a diversified portfolio for a fairly...
