Can WTI’s 8% Rally Hold After Trump-Putin Summit Collapse?WTI just staged its biggest two-day rally since June, as hopes for a Trump-Putin summit were dashed, leading to new US sanctions on Russian oil exports. 
Here’s what’s fuelling the move and what traders should watch next:
- US sanctions on Russia’s top oil producers after failed Budapest summit trigger supply fears and spike prices
- Trump escalates rhetoric to maintain leverage as Zelensky signs military deals with Sweden, raising geopolitical stakes
- WTI reclaims key $61 resistance, with daily RSI momentum signalling room to run and a possible cup & handle breakout toward $68
- Supply glitch fears (India, OPEC’s slow reaction) and technicals all support continued upside if the current environment holds
Watch for buy the dip signals, respect $61 support, and target the $65–68 channel top if current drivers persist. 
Stay tuned!

My Plan To Improve My Win/Loss Ratio In Forex TradingThe trading plan that I have been designing based on SMC was amazingly beautful in terms of its mechanics. Yet, it had a terrible Win/Loss ratio.
Because I loved its mechanics, I didn't want to drop it all together, and was looking for ways to enhance it. I tried to merge it with the classical school and with some Volume indicator, but things still went south.
Finally, I came by some educational material that showed me a couple of things on using Stochastic. I loved it, and this will be my addition, and what I will test in the coming week.
My plan will include the same SMC rules, and the Stochastic. I will draw the support and resistance zones and maybe trendlines. 
I will be using the daily timeframe on two different sets of settings for the stochastic, one is long term and another is shorter term.
I will be coming back with my test results next week. 
Silver bull will try to throw you off, but long term healthyA pause that could refresh might be warranted in silver and gold. 
I am still optimistic for precious metals long term. 
Silver is still undervalued based on historical metrics and money supply. 
I worry about the rise in metals and what it implies for the broad stock market indices. 
Back to Basics: How to Calculate Pips on Forex Pairs📌 Back to Basics: How to Calculate Pips on Forex Pairs 💱📊
Every Forex trader needs to understand pips—it’s the foundation of measuring movement in currency pairs.
✅ On most pairs, 1 pip = the 4th decimal place (0.0001).
✅ On JPY pairs, 1 pip = the 2nd decimal place (0.01).
In this quick video, I’ll break down exactly how to find the pip, how to count them, and how to use them when setting your entry and take-profit (TP) levels.
Perfect for beginners or anyone who wants a simple refresher!

GameStop and Fibonacci: It's About TimeThis is my first attempt at publishing a video on TradingView, so hopefully it works. 
I wanted to put together something educational about fib channels and why I like to use them. They're not a silver bullet, but they do tell you a lot about where to expect support and resistance because the chart has a very good memory, and you can see this play out on pretty much any instrument, including cryptocurrencies. 
I follow  NYSE:GME  closer than any other ticker, so this video is about my philosophy on the fib channels that I have been using on the GME chart and talking about on the Echo Chamber Podcast. Hopefully this adds a little more context to that discussion, how the flat price levels are not always the only thing that matters, but taking time-based trends into account can make a big difference in your analysis and understanding of price movement. 
Happy to hear people's thoughts on my crayons 🖍️ which color should I eat next?
Since this is a bit of a longer video, here's an  AI summary  of the content with timestamps:
 Introduction 00:00-01:05 
I introduce the topic of explaining my TradingView chart, which has many colorful lines. I clarify that I didn't manually draw all the lines, but used Fibonacci channels that only require selecting 3 points.
 Explaining Current Chart 01:05-04:33 
I show my current GameStop chart, explaining various trend lines and Fibonacci channels. I demonstrate how to adjust the Fibonacci channel points to analyze different price movements.
 Fresh Chart Walkthrough 04:33-11:57 
Moving to a clean chart, I explain global chart items, including trend lines from major tops and bottoms. I discuss dividend-adjusted vs non-adjusted charts and explain the "Gandalf line" of support.
 Fibonacci Channels Explanation 11:57-24:54 
I provide a detailed explanation of how Fibonacci channels work, demonstrating how to draw them and interpret the resulting lines. I show how these channels can describe price action across long time periods.
 Additional Examples 24:54-33:44 
I show more examples of Fibonacci channels applied to GameStop's entire price history. I discuss how these channels can provide insight into potential future price movements and support/resistance levels.
 Conclusion 33:44-34:40 
I summarize my thoughts on GameStop's current price action in relation to the Fibonacci channels and support levels identified.
 Some Quotes 
 
 "I find them mathematically interesting." 11:54 - Referring to trend-based Fibonacci tools.
 "Math is your friend here. But you don't have to do the math, you just can use tools that will help you." 17:19
 "Price is fractal in nature in that patterns are repeating and Fibonacci is everywhere." 17:19
 "Things like history repeats itself. It's just a question of when, not if." 24:30
 "The point I want to drive home here is that when we start to get a little bit more granular here, and this is why I have lots of crayons on my chart." 28:34
 
 Key Tips/Concepts 
 
 Fibonacci channels can be powerful tools for technical analysis, providing insight into potential support and resistance levels.
 These channels can sometimes describe price action across very long time periods, even when drawn based on recent price movements with thoughtfully selected endpoints.
 The importance of considering price, time, and volume in technical analysis, as demonstrated by the "Gandalf line".
 The value of using multiple timeframes and chart types (dividend-adjusted vs non-adjusted, trading hours only vs extended hours included) to gain a more complete picture of a stock's price history.  (Editorial note: something I didn't cover in the video, but the difference between log scale and linear scale sometimes will make for an interesting story on trendlines and fib channels too. I prefer to keep my chart in log scale, but will toggle between log and linear occasionally to see if there's something interesting there in the lines already drawn.) 
 The concept of fractal nature in price movements and how patterns tend to repeat over time.
 
  
  
 
Silver just hit a record high but a double‑top signals pullback!After a strong rally to new records spurred by safe-haven demand and new entrants, silver is now testing critical support levels near $47‑$48 amid the recent Gaza ceasefire news, forming a classic double‑top pattern that may turn into a long-term Cup & Handle that could place price action in a handle pattern for the years to come.
 🔑 Key Drivers (Silver‑focused) 
 Technical breakout : Price breached $51, approaching the 161.8 % Fibonacci level at $47.50.
 Double‑top formation : A clean double‑top suggests a near‑term correction could be on the way.
 Support zone : The $47‑$48 area acts as the next major support; a break below could open the door to $45‑$46 levels.
 Fibonacci retracement : The 61.8% retracement sits around $49.30, providing a potential bounce point before any deeper pullback.

Why Gen X Struggles with Crypto?Why does Gen X struggle with crypto? 
Because they’re used to the stock market system, where ownership is recorded by a central registry and trades that are tied to a specific exchange.
In their world, you typically should buy through Nasdaq in this example and expect to sell through Nasdaq. But with Bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies, the blockchain itself is the registry, which means you can buy on one platform and sell on another freely. That shift—from centralized exchanges to decentralized settlement—is what makes crypto hard to grasp.

INDV - Helping Trump Fight The Drug War In The US and Overseas.Thought this was a good example of the kind of stock I like to trade.
Not all of these have to be true to make it tradable. Just things I like to see. 
 
 Up over 100% over the last 12 months
 Nice and steady price gains continuing to make higher highs
 Had a good bump on earnings
 Has had a recent pullback of 10-15% into a better value area as investors took some profits
 Looks like it consolidated and established a support area
 Analysts are bullish and think there is quite a bit of upside to its price
 Starting to head back up
 RSI and MACD both show a change in direction and buyer momentum coming back into the stock
 
Could be worth a watch.

NFP "Goldilocks" playbook? EURUSD triggers revealed!Markets are optimistic and consolidating ahead of the Non-Farm Payrolls (NFP) report, with EUR/USD poised for a breakout, plus a quick technical overview of gold, GBP/USD, and USD/JPY.
 Mood : Buoyant—risk assets and equities are near weekly highs, bond yields are easing.
 Consensus : A "Goldilocks" NFP (not too hot, not too cold) is expected, supporting a 25bp Fed rate cut this month and possibly another by year-end.
 Catalysts : Recent softer labour data and dovish Fed commentary have fueled bets on a more accommodative policy stance.
 EUR/USD Conditional Scenarios
 Key Levels: Support at 1.1524, 1.1580, 1.1600, 1.1625; Resistance at 1.1700, 1.1735, 1.1760, 1.1830
 Scenarios :
 Strong NFP : Sell 1.1650–1.1670, targets 1.1600/1.1580/1.1524, stop 1.1700
 Goldilocks NFP : Range trade 1.1625–1.1700, buy/sell at edges, stops 1.1580/1.1720
 Weak NFP : Buy 1.1630–1.1650, targets 1.1735/1.1760/1.1830, stop 1.1600
 Risk : 1–2% per trade, always use stops, watch for ECB-driven reversals

Amazon Chart CheckOn the weekly chart, Amazon looks like it’s starting to tire a bit. Price is struggling just under that January high near 24,252.
Looking at the Ichimoku Cloud:
•	In mid-2023, price broke strongly above the cloud and bounced cleanly higher after retests.
•	More recently (spring 2025), we had a decent correction but bounced again.
•	Now, instead of bouncing hard, price is just sitting on top of the cloud — feels weaker than before.
On the daily chart:
•	The 200-day moving average has been a line in the sand since May. Several successful tests and bounces.
•	Currently, price is hugging the daily cloud.
•	If we see erosion near 219–220(top of the cloud), a quick dip back to the 200-day MA (~21,280) is very possible.
•	A close below that could signal a potential top forming.
⚠️ For me, this uptrend feels a little tired — worth keeping an eye on and possibly tightening stops if you’re in the trade.

Cable & Fibre!So, generally I'm happy with the way the market is going. Though a little bit uncertain about how high it wants to go before it resumes its downward spiral, things are going good so far. 
Looking at Cable, on an hourly chart, we see that between 06:00 am and 08:00 am (New York Time), there is FVG formed and to its left, there is a breaker. This a perfect setup for me, but I will wait to see if price actually wants to go above the 1.3477 level to reach for the 4H as well as 1H FVG. 
I've put a sell limit on the fibre at 1.1635, but I will remove it for now, 'till I have confirmed whether price will go above 1.1698 level, to go into the 4H FVG, the mid-point thereof. I have a sell limit there with a stop loss at .1745. 
Bitcoin, Ethereum Breakout: 401(k) funds & the next "Altseason"Bitcoin is up 10% in August, driven by strong ETF inflows and a game-changing executive order allowing 401(k) retirement funds to invest in cryptocurrencies, potentially bringing trillions of dollars into the sector.
Technically, Bitcoin and Ethereum are breaking out toward multi-year highs, with BTC leading and ETH close behind—setting the stage for a possible "altseason" if these levels hold and capital rotates into altcoins.
