Sometimes, you have to see the things from a different perspective, the chart of Gold against major currencies, writing this on the chart: "" TVC:GOLD/((FX_IDC:CHFUSD+FX_IDC:EURUSD+FX_IDC:GBPUSD)/3) "" you can observe that the price has successfully broken out from a long accumulation inside an ascending triangle and that it's about to break the all time high...
Lets assume that the strength in the US dollar wont last for too much longer, as Central Banks try and work out how many more trillions are needed in the system. The BTCUSD had been in a trading range for some time and this week we convincingly left it, with a big dose of Bullish price action. Will it last? IDK. I am long BTCUSD so I am fundamentally in the...

Inflation has come down down, FED is planning to begin cutting rates this year. Interest rates are the highest in the US of any developed country. Long term bonds especially are a good investment here. EDV and TLT both track them and are currently paying a good yield too. I expect these to double from current prices over the decade. The next time things break and...

A nod to @unbeldi And a updated chart Swapping the Bitcoin price to marketcap over the M1 money As BTC is a Trillion dollar asset again and was invented to be peer to peer cash It's good to compare the ratio vs the dollar.

Can we see something similar kind of movement in SPX? IMO yes. So, will Bitcoin follow SPX? IMO Bitcoin also moves in sideways, or Bitcoin is risk on...
The head of the European Central Bank #ECB Madame Lagarde claims the #ECB is at a different point in time to the Federal Reserve #FED.

The graph indicates otherwise interestingly the EUD USD liquidity indicates the Fed...
In this video, I'm overcoming a sinus infection. However, I am explaining the movement come March 24 the Federal Interest Rate. Concluding, that the interest rate will drop during the Fed Meeting.
What does it do You see what could be a continuation inverse head and shoulders and the two targets. PLAN B hot alot of people wrecked last time, and he still adamant #BTC will hit $500K this cycle. The chart says otherwise and more likely we peak above the high meet the linear target & double top (at least for now ) what say you?
The drop today after inflation reports adds another note to my annotated chart. Note the day of last #Fed speak. As long as the low of that day holds - I remain positionally bullish. if this changes, i will reevaluate
This is just a simple observation of what happened with Gold in the last 100 years. Here I show some important economic events highlighting the purchasing power with a red line. When you open a GOLD chart, you can look at the trend and think that it had a very strong bull market during the last century. And you are right, it had a very strong one, but against...
