Here is a clear view of the patterns I'm watching with BTCUSD. The main macro pattern is this ascending channel, drawn with a diagonal grey rectangle. Touch points on support and resistance are highlighted with red and green arrows. They are perfectly parallel, which increases my confidence in the validity of that range. We also have an established pattern of...
The big arc pattern I was watching has completed, and BTC has put in a new all time high. Now we're slogging through some post-halving chop, speculating on the next big move. It's been about 7 weeks of chop around the LSE:60KS now. If you look at the chart, generally this kind of ranging chop lasts for 7-10 weeks before a decisive move that breaks out of the...
I believe gold is real wealth. You can hold in your hand, protect it and use it as you see fit. Hold a stack of gold coins in your hand and see for yourself that there is nothing else quite like it. There is also the metaphysical property of gold to attract more wealth, acknowledged in many cultures. This has been true for me since I started accumulating...
After a sudden policy shift from the BOJ, we saw the market trend reverse course and fall from the 140s all the way back to 131. It is mind-boggling that top national currencies are this volatile, but here we are. Now the overreaction to the policy shift has retraced a bit and we are back at 134. Either a dovish hint by Powell or another hawkish step by Kuroda...
Technical Analysis purists, short term traders, and Elon haters won't like this strategy, but to me it's an obvious play. The robotics and AI technology they are developing at Tesla will disrupt and transform human life way more than their electric cars already have. I want to own some of this stock for the next 10 years for when these technologies actually start...
We have been in the green channel since Jan 2023. It's a clean channel with symmetrical touch points on the top and bottom. There is room to go either way and still stay within the channel. Now at the center of the channel, we have the obvious pattern forming: a bullish pennant. The interesting thing is that there's a convergence between the extension of the...
It looks like the BTC consolidation in the $63-67K range since falling to $60800 is within a few days of completing and making another move one way or the other. The more likely next move is bullish to $75000+. I previously believed the correction would be deeper, at least to GETTEX:59K and possibly to $50K, but a drop to those levels does not look likely to me...
The Polkadot network is still alive. It is a unique L0 platform. It has zealous believers, talented developers, and it WILL have its turn to take center stage and pump like crazy in a continued bull market scenario / alt season. That's all we really need to know as far as fundamentals. Drawing arcs, it's difficult to know exactly what the arc will look like...

There's a picture-perfect pennant forming here. This is where technical analysis gets really fun. USDJPY short term moves are basically reliant on Federal Reserve and Bank of Japan policy announcements. There will be a Bank of Japan Monetary Policy Minutes "Summary of Opinions" release on Thursday March 28th (in 3 days) that can influence the currency pair's...
The days of fiat currency are phasing out. It's over. We are moving into a multi-polar monetary system with multiple base layers. If you are aware of what's happening, it's time to choose where to store your wealth. What do you want to own when we emerge on the other side of the tumultuous death of fiat? We now have the technology to support digital wealth...
Yes, I have a bullish bias for BTC. I am always stacking for the long term. And, yes, I have made a couple of bad bullish calls during this bear market. With that acknowledgement, there is a nice arc pattern to watch here with multiple touch points. There is also a clear trend line (black) that broke to the upside, retested, and has held. Even setting my bias...
Here are the most important patterns and trend lines I'm watching now, as this pair ranges between 127 and 137. I am not looking to actively trade leveraged pips on this pair! I make well-timed larger-scale allocations based on macro trends. My prediction remains with previous charts I've shared: 1. A return to lower levels with a test of support around 125,...
Hello and welcome to this volatile and uncertain time in BTC history!! We have crypto bank shutdowns and bailouts, Balaji putting a $2M bet that we see $1M Bitcoin in 90 days, and so much more happening. Mass adoption is possible sooner than we thought, as is more extreme and coordinated government attacks, regulation and enforcement that would stifle BTC for...
Watching for a break back into the channel or a rejection at the support-turned-resistance to complete the pattern. If you are long yen, this might be a spot to take some off the table. My targets are 130 for the rising wedge, and then 125 for the C Elliot wave and retest of the head and shoulders neckline. Good luck and enjoy these fun times!!
Three patterns are pointing us to a downtrend in the next few months. 1. The upward-pointing wedge (blue lines) tends to break downwards. Look for the bottom support to break in the next few days or after another trip up to the top of the range and back down. 2. We have a clear as day Elliot wave pattern happening. The C wave is incoming before the next big...
Within the broadening wedge pattern I previously discussed, we have a bullish pennant forming at the top ascending line. We also have weakening volume, another confirmation of the pattern. Waiting for a breakout and confirmation. At the breakout, there should be a spike in volume. It's no coincidence that the FOMC announcement is at 2pm EST, in about 6 hours....
The yen was screaming towards the next historical resistance at 147, and the Bank of Japan stepped in with a sudden red candle to support the yen. They say they will continue to do so as it approaches 146 again. We were not operating in a "free market" before, and now we are even farther removed from one. The big banks in Japan, the US, and Europe are spending...
