BTC recovers before interest rate announcementBitcoin (BTC/USD) – Daily Chart Analysis Bitcoin is currently trading around the 114K–115K zone after rebounding from the ascending support trendline near 108K. This reaction confirms that buyers are still defending the broader bullish structure, but significant resistance lies ahead. Key Observations: Resistance Zone (117K–118K): This area has acted as a strong supply zone in the past, where price was previously rejected twice (marked by red arrows). It also aligns with the EMA 89 and volume cluster, making it a critical barrier for bulls. Support Zone (108K–102K): The lower trendline and horizontal support near 102K–104K remain vital for the long-term bullish structure. A break below this region would open the door for deeper correction toward 100K. EMA Confluence: The short-term moving averages (EMA 34 and 89) are attempting to turn upward, suggesting early signs of recovery—but confirmation requires a daily close above 118K. Possible Scenarios: Bullish Case: If BTC successfully breaks and closes above 118K, momentum could accelerate toward 127K–128K, where the upper trendline and major resistance coincide. Bearish Case: If price faces rejection at the 117K–118K zone, a retest of 108K, or even 102K, is likely before the next major move. Outlook: Bitcoin remains in a neutral-to-bullish phase short term, but traders should closely monitor the 117K–118K resistance for potential rejection or breakout confirmation.

The most audacious forecast DAX gapped up above the trendline on news on trade deals, but there is no follow through. Instead, price is coming down and re-testing the breakout trendline. Price action is bearish, which indicates further downside, thus rendering the trendline support as useless. Will that be the case? No doubt, the overall market is bullish, especially the US markets. But will DAX be the clue that we see a profit taking/sell down for the coming days? And using a simple projection, 23000 will be a 'scary' yet healthy pullback, as good level to go long off.

The Fed Eases Its Stress Tests,Giving WallStreet Some BreathThe Fed Eases Its Stress Tests, Giving Wall Street Some Breathing Room By Ion Jauregui – Analyst at ActivTrades The U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed) has announced a major reform to its banking stress tests — the resilience checks that, since the 2008 financial crisis, have served as the key barometer of the U.S. financial system’s stability. The new regulation aims to make the exams more transparent and predictable, a change that many on Wall Street view as a regulatory relief. For the first time, the Fed will publish the internal models used in these tests and open a public consultation period to receive feedback from financial institutions before implementation. The move has been welcomed by the Bank Policy Institute and the American Bankers Association, two of the sector’s main lobbying groups, which had even filed a lawsuit against the central bank over the lack of clarity in its models. With this reform, the legal action has been suspended, and industry representatives have hailed the decision as “a positive step for economic growth.” However, not everyone within the Fed shares the optimism. Governor Michael Barr, who oversees supervision, warned that the new policy “could weaken the effectiveness of the tests,” allowing banks to adjust their balance sheets to pass adverse scenarios without truly strengthening their solvency. JPMorgan Chase, the Main Beneficiary The largest U.S. bank, JPMorgan Chase, could emerge as one of the biggest winners under this new framework. With assets exceeding $4.5 trillion and steady profits driven by its investment banking and trading divisions, the institution led by Jamie Dimon has demonstrated strength well above the sector average. With the early release of the stress test models, JPMorgan will be able to optimize its capital more efficiently and adjust its dividend and share buyback strategy without the risk of regulatory surprises. In its latest quarterly results, the bank already announced an 8% increase in its buyback program and an improvement in its CET1 capital ratio, reinforcing its leadership position. Still, some analysts warn that overly relaxed testing could weaken financial safety buffers at a time when corporate credit and public debt are rising sharply. Technical Analysis (Ticker AT: JPM) JPMorgan Chase & Co. shares closed on Friday at $300.44, posting a positive session after rebounding from a support area that coincides with the consolidation range established at the end of the previous semester. Since late June, the stock has traded within a lateral range between this year’s all-time highs ($316.47) and the initial upward impulse zone near $278.95, with a point of control (highest traded volume level) around $290.03. In the short term, the price needs to break above the 50- and 100-period moving averages to confirm a new bullish leg and resume its move toward new highs, setting a technical target around $350 per share. If the $278.95 support fails to hold, a pullback toward the previous area around $266.93 could follow. The RSI stands at 47.75%, within the neutral zone, reflecting balanced buying and selling pressure. Meanwhile, the MACD remains in negative territory, though its histogram shows signs of recovery — a potential early indication of an upward crossover. Finally, the ActivTrades US Market Pulse indicates a neutral risk environment, suggesting that the market has yet to define a clear short-term direction. The Debate Is On: More Transparency or More Risk? One thing is certain — with this reform, the Fed has opened a new chapter in the relationship between regulators and banks, one that Wall Street is watching with evident satisfaction. ******************************************************************************************* The information provided does not constitute investment research.

Is Geopolitical Re-Alignment the New AUD Catalyst?The Australian Dollar's (AUD) sharp surge against the US Dollar (USD) is driven by a powerful synergy of geopolitical de-escalation and structural economic realignment. Near-term momentum stems from optimism surrounding an imminent US-China trade deal. As a primary commodity exporter and a financial 'China proxy', Australia's currency benefits directly from reduced Sino-American trade tensions, prompting a global "risk-on" rally that lifted commodity prices and commodity-linked currencies. Simultaneously, softer-than-expected US inflation data has amplified expectations for a Federal Reserve rate cut in December, weakening the USD by narrowing the interest rate differential in favor of the Aussie. Structurally, the AUD gains foundational strength from a landmark $8.5 billion US-Australia Critical Minerals Agreement. This strategic pact, targeting vital rare-earth elements, aims to secure a Western supply chain for high-tech and defense industries, directly countering China's resource dominance. The joint commitment of over $1 billion in near-term investment into Australian mining and processing facilities introduces significant foreign capital and long-term economic diversification. This geostrategic pivot transforms Australia into a key node in the non-Chinese supply of materials essential for the global clean energy transition and advanced cyber systems, moving the AUD beyond purely cyclical commodity flows. In essence, the $AUD/USD rally is a dual narrative: a cyclical uplift from cooling trade wars and a structural upgrade from a new science and technology alliance with the US. While markets await specific details from the upcoming high-level trade talks and the Federal Reserve's next move, this combination of favorable macroeconomic divergence and a foundational critical minerals investment provides a robust, multi-domain argument for sustained Australian Dollar strength.

Generals Charge, Soldiers Stall: Reading Bearish Divergence1. Context: The Battle Line Between Large and Small Caps This week’s futures landscape paints a striking contrast between leadership and hesitation. In the CME equity index universe, the large caps — ES (E-mini S&P 500), NQ (E-mini NASDAQ 100), and YM (E-mini Dow Jones) — advanced as a united front, all opening above their prior week’s highs. The market generals were charging confidently uphill. Yet, on the same battlefield, the RTY (E-mini Russell 2000) lagged behind. The small caps failed to take out the prior week’s high and opened below the aggressive gaps that marked their larger counterparts. In trader terms, breadth was narrowing. In storyteller terms, the generals were calling “forward!” — but the soldiers weren’t following. Such divergences in participation often mark transition zones in market psychology. When large caps push while small caps stall, it doesn’t necessarily mean the campaign is lost — but it does mean confidence among the broader troops is weakening. 2. Reading the Divergence: When Breadth Narrows The relationship between large-cap and small-cap indices often reveals more than just price action — it exposes the structure of conviction. In sustained bullish environments, small caps tend to lead or at least confirm the move. Their participation signals that risk appetite is healthy across the field, not confined to the biggest names. When that breadth fades, the advance becomes fragile. A rally driven only by mega-cap components (the generals) can stretch further, but with decreasing participation, it becomes increasingly vulnerable to shocks. Traders who watch intermarket behavior know this phenomenon as bearish divergence — higher highs in the generals, lower or flat highs in the soldiers. From a practical standpoint, narrowing breadth implies that fewer sectors are carrying the index higher. In other words, the market’s engine is running on fewer cylinders. This is not a timing trigger on its own, but it is a powerful contextual clue suggesting that volatility could expand when the leadership stumbles. 3. Quantifying the Risk: Supports and Market Depth Looking beneath price, Order Flow (UnFilled Orders) provides a sense of where liquidity may reside once the current rally pauses. Key UFO support zones, acting as potential demand clusters, reveal how far the market might travel before encountering fresh buy interest. From this week’s open: ES shows its next support roughly 5.26% below current levels. NQ sits around 6.25% below. YM’s cushion lies approximately 9.39% beneath. RTY, however, faces a much deeper air pocket — the next notable UFO support sits nearly 13.99% lower. This asymmetry is critical. If markets retreat, small caps have the most unprotected downside terrain before reaching meaningful support. In other words, the generals may fall back a few miles, but the soldiers could tumble down the hill. These percentages don’t guarantee a move — they outline the potential amplitude of correction if risk-off flows accelerate. The deeper the distance to support, the larger the volatility zone beneath. 4. Strategic View: Large Caps Lead, but Are They Overextended? The current setup puts traders in a classic tactical dilemma: Are the generals inspiring a new advance, or are they overextended and exposed? Two plausible scenarios emerge: Continuation scenario: If the small caps (RTY) regain strength and take out their prior week’s high, the breadth gap could close. This would validate the generals’ move and reestablish a broad-based advance. Correction scenario: If RTY continues to stall while ES, NQ, and YM fail to sustain their gaps, it would confirm a divergence-led weakening. A close back below prior week’s highs could trigger a retreat toward the support zones identified earlier. The idea is not to predict a reversal, but to prepare a framework in case weakness unfolds. 5. Contract Overview: E-mini and Micro Versions To analyze or engage these markets, traders can study both E-mini and Micro E-mini contracts listed on the CME. These contracts represent standardized ways to participate in U.S. equity index movements, but at different notional sizes. E-mini contracts (ES, NQ, YM, RTY) are the long-standing institutional benchmark instruments that track major U.S. equity indices with efficient liquidity and tight spreads. Micro E-mini contracts (MES, MNQ, MYM, M2K) provide the same exposure pattern at one-tenth the size, offering more granularity in risk management and flexibility for smaller accounts or precise hedging. It’s important to understand that these futures allow directional and hedging applications without requiring ownership of the underlying equities. However, as with any leveraged product, margin requirements can amplify both gains and losses. Traders should familiarize themselves with margin-to-equity ratios and maintenance requirements before participation. S&P 500 – ES / MES Minimum tick: 0.25 points Tick value: $12.50 (E-mini) | $1.25 (Micro) Typical margin: ≈ $21K (E-mini) | ≈ $2.1K (Micro) NASDAQ 100 – NQ / MNQ Minimum tick: 0.25 points Tick value: $5.00 (E-mini) | $0.50 (Micro) Typical margin: ≈ $30K (E-mini) | ≈ $3.0K (Micro) Dow Jones – YM / MYM Minimum tick: 1 point Tick value: $5.00 (E-mini) | $0.50 (Micro) Typical margin: ≈ $13K (E-mini) | ≈ $1.3K (Micro) Russell 2000 – RTY / M2K Minimum tick: 0.10 points Tick value: $5.00 (E-mini) | $0.50 (Micro) Typical margin: ≈ $9K (E-mini) | ≈ $0.9K (Micro) Please note that all margin requirements are approximate and may be adjusted. 6. Risk Management Spotlight Breadth divergences can test patience and positioning discipline. Managing exposure becomes as important as analyzing the signal itself. Here are three core reminders: Position Sizing: Adjust to volatility. If the distance to the nearest support is wide, scale down accordingly to maintain a consistent risk percentage per trade. Stop-Loss Discipline: Predetermine exit points based on technical invalidation, not emotion. Capital Preservation: Capital is ammunition; running out of it limits participation when true opportunity returns. In the end, risk management isn’t about avoiding loss; it’s about surviving long enough to thrive when clarity returns. When markets are divided between generals and soldiers, maintaining balance becomes a trader’s greatest edge. 7. Educational Takeaway The “generals vs. soldiers” analogy reminds us that market structure is not just about price—it’s about participation. When large caps surge but small caps lag, it signals a potential exhaustion point in the broader advance. The healthiest rallies are those in which all troops move in sync. For traders and investors, breadth divergences serve as an early-warning system, not a countdown clock. They encourage a review of exposure, tighter stop placement, and a shift toward risk-awareness rather than return-chasing. At this stage, the technical setup across U.S. index futures reads like a fragile truce: ES, NQ, and YM maintain their gains above prior-week highs, while RTY still lingers below. Should the soldiers eventually follow, confidence could rebuild. But if the generals start retreating first, the path toward their UFO supports could unfold quickly. The core takeaway: breadth divergences don’t predict timing—they illuminate imbalance. Recognizing that imbalance early allows traders to respond intelligently instead of react emotionally when volatility expands. When charting futures, the data provided could be delayed.

SNAP Seems Ripe for ATH in '27,'28 More Likely The thought process is secret ;) The chart simply illustrates a likely path. Consider other people besides me for financial advice, none here. ---------- Risk: Snap could very well be below $6 a share in the coming month. There could be a flush out down to the low $6's.. Double digit losses those would be... May be best to unrealize them in that scenario. This company has too much of a base of users to lose bids at such levels.. Thus, you risk sitting on losses in the nearterm. ----------- Reward: What is, in my opinion, a 10x'er over the course of the next few years. Not financial advice.

AUDUSD – Monday Gap Fill Setup (Institutional Play)This week opened with a Gap Up relative to last Friday’s close (~0.65122). A Gap Up typically suggests that price may retrace downward to fill the imbalance left behind over the weekend — as long as structure confirms the continuation move. How the Setup Developed 1. Friday Close was marked as the Gap Fill Target. 2. At Monday open, AUDUSD opened above this level → SELL bias. 3. Early session showed a liquidity sweep (stop-hunt wick) above previous swing highs — a common institutional liquidity grab. 4. After the sweep, price broke structure to the downside (BOS). 5. The market pulled back into the BOS zone, offering a sell entry with stop loss placed above the sweep high. 6. Management rule: SL moves to break-even only after a 5-minute candle closes below the BOS trigger line (not just a wick). Target → Friday Close Gap Fill (0.65122 region) This target reflects the principle that weekend gaps tend to close due to price seeking efficiency after an imbalance.

USD/CHF - Long🔥 USD/CHF – 1H Forecast Breakdown 🔥 Alright traders, let’s cook this one up 👇 🧠 Bias Currently leaning bullish on USD/CHF as price holds firm above a key 1H demand zone near 0.7945–0.7955. After multiple liquidity grabs in this area, buyers are stepping back in — hinting that smart money may be reloading longs 👀. 🧩 Technical Breakdown Price rejected a 1H demand zone with strong bullish candles. The 200 EMA is hovering above price but flattening out — potential early signal of a reversal phase. Structure-wise, we’ve created higher lows since the sweep, suggesting a buildup for continuation. Entry is around 0.7969, targeting the next 4H supply near 0.8016. Stop sits tight below the demand zone at 0.7944 — just under liquidity. 🎯 Trade Setup Entry : 0.7969 SL : 0.7944 TP : 0.8016 R:R: ≈ 1.89 Risk: 25% (Aggressive test setup for small account challenge 💥) ⚙️ Game Plan Wait for price to retest entry zone or show a bullish 15M confirmation candle before entering. If we clear 0.7995, momentum could accelerate fast toward TP. If we break below 0.7940, this idea’s invalid — we’ll reassess for a deeper discount. 🧠 Summary USD/CHF looks ready to spring out of a compression range. Liquidity below has been taken — next logical move is to hunt highs. Keep it clean, manage your lot size, and trail stops once we clear 0.7990.
