#202449 - priceactiontds - weekly update - gold futuresGood Evening and I hope you are well. tl;dr gold futures: Boi does this market blow at the moment. Nested triangles on multiple time frames and that’s as neutral as it gets. I doubt bulls can even get it above 2700 again at this point. 2660 is the midpoint for now and the range is big, so either buy low and sell it inside of it or wait for a bigger breakout. Bulls need something above 2750 and bears below 2560. Huge range. A lot of traders that have bought above 2700 are underwater. The longer this stays below it, the less likely it is to get back up there. Quote from last week: comment: Talk about you can’t time the market. Pretty ducking good call that was from the above outlook last week. Higher low, and lower high. Triangle on the daily, very bullish above and very bearish below. Not rocket science to read this. I do think bulls are slightly favored. comment: I won’t waste much time with this market this week. Clear triangle and market is in total balance around 2660. Wait for the breakout or play the range. My best guess would be that we both see 2600 and 2700 in the next 3 weeks. current market cycle: trading range key levels: 2600 - 2700 bull case: Bulls breakout point is 2750 and that is far away. Buying below 2650 has been profitable the past 2 weeks but bulls could not close one single day above the 20ema. Best to wait until we clearly see a winner here. Daily close above 2700 would be a great start for bulls. Invalidation is below 2630. bear case: Bears need to break 2627 for testing 2600 and then it’s the big bull trend line. If they would somehow manage to break even that, last support is 2568 before we go down to 2500. Invalidation is above 2700. outlook last week: short term: S lightly bullish if we stay above 2630. Max bullish above 2750. → Last Sunday we traded 2681 and now we are at 2659. We stayed above 2630 and went nowhere. Meh outlook. short term: Neutral inside given range. medium-long term - Update from 2024-12-07: No bigger opinion on this for the rest of 2024. Market is in balance until we see a new impulse. current swing trade: None chart update: Removed bullish two-legged move up.

Waiting for a breakout towards Demand/Supplyhere's my analysis of GC1, as you can see I've marked my Supply and Demand area where price will react to, and previously the market was in a downtrend and CHoC occurred which formed our HH and HL, and between these we have our small range which indicates that neither the Bulls or Bears are in control. My analysis shows that its best to wait for a breakout on the Highest High or on the Highest low then we can enter our trades, the price can breakout either way so it's best to wait, TP will either be Demand/Supply area, use H1 for candlestick confirmation

How I use Fibonacci extensions Tuesday on this video we take a look at oil and gold... the real purpose is to take a closer look at how I use extensions since you can end up trading with extensions all day long and go crazy. I think that both markets...... gold... and oil.... are contracted markets.. and if I use range boxes to Define where the buyers and sellers are I think there's a little more advantage to the gold market...... but you really want to trade markets that aren't so expanded because they have no range and that means they have less reward.... whether you trade as a buyer or a seller. the good thing is that if you can have a comfortable feeling that the markets contracted it should trigger a Feeling for you to not be so quick to take a trade because a contracted Market is a function of buyers and sellers and that the Market isn't clear since there's no distance between buyers and sellers. if the buyers and sellers are unclear because of what contraction means why would you expect yourself to have a good trade when there's no range?Remember... it is far better to be a chicken because you're not sure where the buyers and sellers are.... versus a dead chicken with chicken parts all over the chart because you were trying to make decisions when the market was ambiguous for both buyers and sellers if it's a contracted Market.

2024-12-05 - priceactiontds - daily update - goldGood Evening and I hope you are well. tl;dr gold - Neutral. Death zone is 2644 - 2688. Until we break out of it, I will not touch it again. Unchanged. But the accuracy is pretty amazing so far. I am not touching this but longs are preferred below 2650 for trading back up to 2670+. comment: Clear trading range so don’t over analyse it. 2644 has to hold for the bulls and bears need to stay below 2680 tomorrow. As long as these prices hold, you have to trade the range and mean reverse. Market is in total balance, so don’t try to guess where the next breakout will happen. current market cycle: trading range key levels: 2644 - 2680 bull case: If bulls fail at 2644, 2630 comes next and then the big bull trend line around 2620ish. They desperately need a close above 2680 if they want a buy signal going into next week and even then the upside is probably limited to 2700 and the bear trend line. Invalidation is below 2610ish. bear case: Bears are preventing the market from closing above the daily ema but fail to make new lows below 2644. No side has an advantage and if you don’t like scalping, it’s best to wait for a clear new trend. If bulls were strong and wanted to close this year above 2800, we would probably have seen it by now. Invalidation is above 2700. short term: Neutral. Market is in balance around 2630. medium-long term - Update from 2024-11-24: Likely to close 2024 above 2800 but I do think the recent selling was the first hint that we will transition into a trading range soon. current swing trade: None trade of the day: Selling above 2675 has been profitable since Monday.

Gold December 4th the gold market is the guinea pig because there are some issues with my terminology that need to be clarified. I've been using some incorrect terminology when I use the term bull flag or Bear Flag and I looked it up and that made things worse so I explained here what I mean. also I know people will have problems with my terminology regarding 2 bar reversals. I discovered that pattern and I didn't get it from books but I know the pattern works because other people must be using it.... because it works. so I'm not inventing any tools I'm simply looking at patterns that are reversal patterns in the market that can happen for many reasons and the beautiful thing about a two-bar reversal is that I can use it with a daily chart and a four-hour chart. sometimes the daily chart closest at a high or near the high and that represents 1 bar.... and then the next bar on the opening price produces another bar and the pattern between yesterday's market and today's market May give me a 2 bar reversal. the pattern of that trade requires yesterday's bar and today's bar... so you have a two-bar reversal from a bar generating yesterday with a bar generated today. Oher times you have a 2 bar reversal within 1 day of trading. there is another point to this and that is that some of the best trades happen on the opening price which is a part of the current day and happens when most Traders are not following that market. what I'm saying is not complicated but it takes time to look at these markets and think about the market before you trade the market. this process takes time and you will learn when the conditions are a little more complex and involve opening price trades that you can get a feel for when you enter the market or not.... sometimes you need the market to move a little bit first before you commit.

Rolling Correlations and Applications for Traders and Investors1. Introduction Markets are dynamic, and the relationships between assets are constantly shifting. Static correlation values, calculated over fixed periods, may fail to capture these changes, leading traders to miss critical insights. Rolling correlations, on the other hand, provide a continuous view of how correlations evolve over time, making them a powerful tool for dynamic market analysis. This article explores the concept of rolling correlations, illustrates key trends with examples like ZN (10-Year Treasuries), GC (Gold Futures), and 6J (Japanese Yen Futures), and discusses their practical applications for portfolio diversification, risk management, and timing market entries and exits. 2. Understanding Rolling Correlations o What Are Rolling Correlations? Rolling correlations measure the relationship between two assets over a moving window of time. By recalculating correlations at each step, traders can observe how asset relationships strengthen, weaken, or even reverse. For example, the rolling correlation between ZN and GC reveals periods of alignment (strong correlation) during economic uncertainty and divergence when driven by differing macro forces. o Why Rolling Correlations Matter: Capture dynamic changes in market relationships. Detect regime shifts, such as transitions from risk-on to risk-off sentiment. Provide context for recent price movements and their alignment with historical trends. o Impact of Window Length: The length of the rolling window (e.g., 63 days for daily, 26 weeks for weekly) impacts the sensitivity of correlations: Shorter Windows: Capture rapid changes but may introduce noise. Longer Windows: Smooth out fluctuations, focusing on sustained trends. 3. Case Study: ZN (Treasuries) vs GC (Gold Futures) Examining the rolling correlation between ZN and GC reveals valuable insights into their behavior as safe-haven assets: o Daily Rolling Correlation: High variability reflects the influence of short-term market drivers like inflation data or central bank announcements. Peaks in correlation align with periods of heightened risk aversion, such as in early 2020 during the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. o Weekly Rolling Correlation: Provides a clearer view of their shared response to macroeconomic conditions. For example, the correlation strengthens during sustained inflationary periods when both assets are sought as hedges. o Monthly Rolling Correlation: Reflects structural trends, such as prolonged periods of monetary easing or tightening. Divergences, such as during mid-2023, may indicate unique demand drivers for each asset. These observations highlight how rolling correlations help traders understand the evolving relationship between key assets and their implications for broader market trends. 4. Applications of Rolling Correlations Rolling correlations are more than just an analytical tool; they offer practical applications for traders and investors: 1. Portfolio Diversification: By monitoring rolling correlations, traders can identify periods when traditionally uncorrelated assets start aligning, reducing diversification benefits. 2. Risk Management: Rolling correlations help traders detect concentration risks. For example, if ZN and 6J correlations remain persistently high, it could indicate overexposure to safe-haven assets. Conversely, weakening correlations may signal increasing portfolio diversification. 3. Timing Market Entry/Exit: Strengthening correlations can confirm macroeconomic trends, helping traders align their strategies with market sentiment. 5. Practical Insights for Traders Incorporating rolling correlation analysis into trading workflows can enhance decision-making: Shorter rolling windows (e.g., daily) are suitable for short-term traders, while longer windows (e.g., monthly) cater to long-term investors. Adjust portfolio weights dynamically based on correlation trends. Hedge risks by identifying assets with diverging rolling correlations (e.g., if ZN-GC correlations weaken, consider adding other uncorrelated assets). 6. Practical Example: Applying Rolling Correlations to Trading Decisions To illustrate the real-world application of rolling correlations, let’s analyze a hypothetical scenario involving ZN (Treasuries) and GC (Gold), and 6J (Yen Futures): 1. Portfolio Diversification: A trader holding ZN notices a decline in its rolling correlation with GC, indicating that the two assets are diverging in response to unique drivers. Adding GC to the portfolio during this period enhances diversification by reducing risk concentration. 2. Risk Management: During periods of heightened geopolitical uncertainty (e.g., late 2022), rolling correlations between ZN and 6J rise sharply, indicating a shared safe-haven demand. Recognizing this, the trader reduces exposure to both assets to mitigate over-reliance on risk-off sentiment. 3. Market Entry/Exit Timing: Periods where the rolling correlation between ZN (Treasuries) and GC (Gold Futures) transitions from negative to positive signal that the two assets are potentially regaining their historical correlation after a phase of divergence. During these moments, traders can utilize a simple moving average (SMA) crossover on each asset to confirm synchronized directional movement. For instance, as shown in the main chart, the crossover highlights key points where both ZN and GC aligned directionally, allowing traders to confidently initiate positions based on this corroborative setup. This approach leverages both correlation dynamics and technical validation to align trades with prevailing market trends. These examples highlight how rolling correlations provide actionable insights that improve portfolio strategy, risk management, and trade timing. 7. Conclusion Rolling correlations offer a dynamic lens through which traders and investors can observe evolving market relationships. Unlike static correlations, rolling correlations adapt to shifting macroeconomic forces, revealing trends that might otherwise go unnoticed. By incorporating rolling correlations into their analysis, market participants can: Identify diversification opportunities and mitigate concentration risks. Detect early signs of market regime shifts. Align their portfolios with dominant trends to enhance performance. In a world of constant market changes, rolling correlations can be a powerful tool for navigating complexity and making smarter trading decisions.

#202448 - priceactiontds - weekly update - gold futuresGood Evening and I hope you are well. tl;dr gold futures: Neutral. Bulls need a strong break above 2700 to test 2720 and the upper triangle line, above that is 2750 and if they break even that, no more resistance until 2800. Most bullish target I have left is 2900 but that’s too far to talk about right now. If bears break below 2630, it’s likely going down to 2560 again. Quote from last week: comment: Market overdid it a bit with the selling and since Monday there are no bears to be found. Measured move up gives us 2866 and if we reach that, 2900 is probably given. You can’t think bearish at all until we reach 2800 again. 5 very strong bull bars closing at the highs. Can’t get any stronger for the bulls. Right now we went from overbought to oversold to overbought. Some pullback is expected and it will likely be a great buying opportunity. comment: Talk about you can’t time the market. Pretty good call that was from the above outlook last week. Higher low, and lower high. Triangle on the daily, very bullish above and very bearish below. Not rocket science to read this. I do think bulls are slightly favored. current market cycle: Bull trend key levels: 2500 - 2900 bull case: My line in the sand was 2650 and low was 2630. Next stop for the bulls is 2700 and 2720. A break above the bear line opens the market up to 2800 again. That is all there is to it right now. Clear invalidation levels and breakout points to set alerts. Invalidation is below 2630. bear case: Bears had a pretty amazing day on Monday but the follow through was disappointing and so we have formed a triangle. Wait for the breakout to either side and hop along or play the current range. Invalidation is above 2750. outlook last week: short term: Max bullish if we stay above 2650. 2800 is my expectation and 2900 possible. → Last Sunday we traded 2712 and now we are at 2681. Missed the low by about 20 points but ok. Not the best outlook but I wrote that a pullback is expected and we got one. short term: Slightly bullish if we stay above 2630. Max bullish above 2750. medium-long term - Update from 2024-11-24: Likely to close 2024 above 2800 but I do think the recent selling was the first hint that we will transition into a trading range soon. current swing trade: None chart update: Added bear trend line from the triangle.

Title: Gold Futures (GC1!) - Consolidation Under Key ResistanceOn the 1-hour timeframe, Gold Futures are showing signs of consolidation near a significant resistance zone. Here’s the breakdown: Resistance Zone (Upper Blue Area) Price is trading under a clear resistance zone around 2,690–2,700. The rejection here indicates selling pressure at this level. Bearish Trendline (Red Line) A minor bearish trendline suggests weakening momentum, which aligns with the resistance zone acting as a supply area. Support Levels (Lower Blue Areas) Immediate support lies near 2,650, providing potential buying interest if the price pulls back. A stronger support level is visible around 2,620, coinciding with prior price reactions. Potential Scenarios Bearish Case: A breakdown below 2,650 could lead to a further decline toward the next support at 2,620. Bullish Case: A breakout above 2,700 would shift the bias, potentially targeting higher levels like 2,730. Key Levels: Resistance: 2,690–2,700 Support: 2,650 and 2,620 Short Bias: Look for price to sweep above 2,690 and reject the resistance zone. Target 2,650 and 2,620 for potential profits. Long Setup: If price reacts strongly at 2,650, align long trades targeting the resistance zone at 2,690.

Gold Futures: Current Analysis (30-11-2024)We are currently developing the impulse (wave C). The 13 MA is below the 55 MA, indicating a slowdown in the movement. In the RSI Difference indicator , the RSI is between the 13 and 55 SMAs and has failed to surpass the 55 SMA, signaling the continuation of the wave C. The final confirmation for this movement will be the 55 EMA turning downward. 🔍 Insights from Weekly Timeframe: Divergences and RSI positioning below both SMAs reinforce the likelihood of a continued downtrend.
