Netflix Has Been SnoozingNetflix has done little for months, but some traders may think the streaming giant is ready to wake up.
The first pattern on today’s chart is the $1,193 level. It was a low in mid-August where NFLX is potentially trying to find new support.
Second, that level potentially represents an incrementally higher low compared with troughs in May and early August. (See the white arrows.)
Those higher lows are also occurring along the rising 100-day simple moving average, which may be consistent with a long-term uptrend.
Next, Bollinger Band Width recently narrowed to its tightest reading since August 2021. Could that price compression give way to expansion?
Stochastics are additionally trying to rise after nearing an oversold condition.
Finally, NFLX is an active underlier in the options market. (It’s averaged more than 90,000 contracts per session in the last month, according to TradeStation data.) That could help traders take positions with calls and puts.

Volatility
Gold – After the BreakoutIt has been hard to ignore the September move higher in the Gold price, which has seen this popular asset amongst traders rise around 6%, from its breakout above 2 month range high resistance at 3450 on September 1st (more on this below in technical update) to a peak of 3690 this morning.
Now, understandably after such a big move, Gold prices are attempting to consolidate at higher levels as traders adjust positioning and prepare for a crucial interest rate decision from the Federal Reserve tomorrow evening at 1900 BST, which is then followed by the press conference, led by Chairman Jerome Powell at 1930 BST.
Patience, preparation and trading discipline when trading any market ahead of such a binary event like this Fed rate decision may be a sensible option to consider, despite what the price action may look like. While markets fully expect the Fed to cut interest rates tomorrow, there is still uncertainty surrounding whether they will cut 25bps (0.25%) or 50bps (0.25%), as well as the outlook of policymakers towards further cuts across the remainder of 2025.
Will they just cut once and wait for more data inputs, or could Chairman Powell signal more cuts are incoming at future meetings? The answers to these questions could lead to an increase in volatility but could also set up the next directional move for Gold prices. This is where preparation can be important.
Check your capital allocation, look at the charts to identify key entry, exit and stop loss levels to monitor and formulate a trading action plan to implement at the time you consider to be the most optimal.
To help you in this regard, below is our technical assessment of the current environment with 36 hours to go before the Fed.
Technical Update: After the Breakout
The latest significant development within Gold price activity has been the successful closing break above 3451, a level equal to the June 16th session high. This also represented the upper extremes of the recent sideways range, with the closing break higher triggering a phase of price acceleration to post a new all-time high at 3690 this morning.
As the chart above shows, the recent setback in price, a move that saw a low posted on September 11th at 3613, appears a limited period of consolidation, especially as this week has seen another all-time high posted at 3690. However, some traders may now be wondering if this 3690 level marks the extent of Gold price strength or if there is a more extended upside phase on the cards.
As a result, it may be important to identify and then monitor key support and resistance levels in case an increased spell of volatility emerges in the coming days.
Potential Resistance Levels:
Having seen a pause in the price advance following the posting of the 3690 all-time high, this level may now represent the first resistance focus. Closing breaks above 3690 may be required to increase the potential of further price strength.
If closes above the record high at 3690 are seen, it could point to potential tests of 3748, which is the 61.8% Fibonacci extension resistance. If this level was to give way, it could open the possibility of a more extended advance towards 3876, which is the higher 100% extension level.
Potential Support Levels:
It has already been a sharp acceleration higher for Gold prices, and this may open suggestions of a deeper decline to unwind over-extended upside price conditions. However, if such a move is to materialise, closing breaks below the support at 3613 may be required. This level is equal to the September 11th low.
While a closing break below 3613 wouldn’t necessarily signal a negative sentiment shift, it could expose tests of 3546, which is the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement of the August 20th to September 9th phase of price strength, and possibly further if this level were to also give way.

Advanzia Group: Tokenization of RWA — BlackRock and $29B On-ChaiIn 2025, the tokenization of real-world assets (RWA) has evolved from a niche trend to a mainstream financial tool, bridging traditional finance with blockchain. The total on-chain RWA market has reached $29 billion (up 260% YTD), with Ethereum dominating at 57%. BlackRock, through its BUIDL fund, leads in tokenized treasuries with $5.5 billion in assets. From Advanzia Group, an analytics platform specializing in Web3 metrics and AI-driven signals, we explore the RWA market, Fibonacci and RSI levels for key tokens (ONDO, MKR, RWA tokens), and trading signals. Data as of September 16, 2025—prime time for positioning ahead of institutional inflows.
Advanzia Group equips traders with dashboards for on-chain analysis; sign up for demo access to seize the edge.
RWA Market Overview: $29B On-Chain, Ethereum 57%
RWA tokenization digitizes assets like treasuries, real estate, and bonds on the blockchain, enabling liquidity and 24/7 trading. The total market stands at $29 billion, with treasuries accounting for 40% ($11.6 billion), led by BlackRock’s BUIDL at $5.5 billion (45% of tokenized treasuries). Ethereum holds 57% ($16.5 billion), followed by Solana (20%) and Polygon (15%). The 260% YTD growth is driven by regulations (MiCA, GENIUS Act) and institutional inflows: $4.7 billion in Q2.

Forecast: BlackRock aims for $2 trillion in RWA by 2030, with BUIDL reaching $10 billion by 2026.
For traders: BUIDL strengthens RWA-treasury correlation (0.8), reducing volatility; BUIDL token RSI at 55 signals neutral-bullish momentum.

PUT CREDIT SPREAD on RUT📈 Thesis: Bullish Momentum Strategy on RUT Using Neural RSI and ADX Pro
This strategy identifies long trade opportunities on the Russell 2000 (RUT) using two core indicators:
Simple Neural Network RSI: When this indicator is green, it signals bullish momentum. Green means go—whether it’s a breakout, reversal, or continuation.
ADX Pro: When rising, it confirms that the directional move is gaining strength.
🎯 Trade Setup
A long trade is initiated when:
The Neural RSI is green, indicating bullish momentum.
ADX Pro is rising, confirming trend strength.
📊 Metrics (Simple Compounding Model)
Trade Duration: 2 days
Spread Width: $5
Net Credit: $47
Capital at Risk: $500
ROI per Trade: 9.4%
One of the most consistent ways to generate income in options trading is by selling premium in high-probability environments. That means structuring trades where the odds are tilted in your favor—not by prediction, but by placement.
When you position short strikes outside the expected move, you're essentially betting that price will stay within its statistically forecasted range. It’s not about being right—it’s about being on the right side of probability.
Pair that with short durations—like 2-day trades—and you’re working with accelerated time decay. A 9% return in that window might seem small, but when repeated with discipline, it adds up quickly. The key is keeping risk defined, staying mechanical, and letting the math do the heavy lifting.
Premium collection isn’t flashy. It’s methodical. And when done right, it becomes a reliable engine for compounding gains while keeping exposure tight.
Euro Breaks Trend Line Before the FedThe euro has been quiet despite lots of noise around the Federal Reserve. But now some traders may think it’s ready to move.
The first pattern on today’s chart is the series of lower highs between early July and late August. EURUSD has pushed above that trend line this month, which might suggest a breakout is underway.
Second, the currency has tracked its rising 50-day simple moving average. That may confirm an intermediate-term uptrend.
Third, Bollinger Band Width recently dipped to the lowest level since December 2021. Could that period of price compression give way to price expansion?
Next, precious metals and mining stocks have outperformed in the last month. That may indicate sentiment is already turning away from the U.S. dollar.
Finally, Wednesday’s Fed meeting is a likely catalyst. Jerome Powell is expected to begin a series of interest-rate cuts. Meanwhile, the European Central Bank indicated last week it may be finished easing. That difference in monetary policy could also push the euro and greenback in opposite directions.

US 100 Index – Assessing a Crucial Week for Tech StocksAs a trader it can be helpful to spend some time on a Sunday afternoon sitting at your trading desk gathering your thoughts and preparing for the week ahead. Checking the Pepperstone economic calendar to assess the scheduled risk events in terms of timing and importance can be a useful part of this process. This upcoming week is quite impressive, packed with central bank meetings and economic data that could impact many, if not all, of the major markets available to trade on the Pepperstone platform.
The standout event could be the Federal Reserve (Fed) interest rate announcement on Wednesday at 1900 BST, which is followed closely by the press conference led by Chairman Powell, which starts at 1930 BST. However, Thursday’s Bank of England interest rate decision at 1200 BST, or Friday’s Bank of Japan interest rate decision due at 0400 BST, and then the press conference led by Governor Ueda may also keep traders on volatility alert.
The US 100 index is the focus of today’s commentary as it can be more sensitive than other indices to interest rate moves made by the Fed.
As can be seen on the daily Pepperstone chart above, the US 100 index has experienced a period of higher highs and higher lows since the 2025 low was hit way back at 16290 on April 7th, helped in no small part by a re-engagement of traders with the potential of artificial intelligence and what it could mean for the future earnings of the leading companies in this space. This AI driver is still in very much in play but may take a backseat this week due to the Federal Reserve rate decision.
Since the surprise weaker than expected US employment report on August 1st (Non-farm payrolls) market expectations for Fed rate cuts have increased, helping to support the latest US 100 uptrend from its August 1st lows at 22678 to print numerous record closing highs, the latest being Friday at 24096.
For the Fed interest rate decision on Wednesday, a 25bps (0.25%) cut is fully priced by traders, but there is a small outside chance of a 50bps (0.5%) cut, a decision which, if it happened, could generate equal amounts of uncertainty that policy makers feel they could be behind the curve in supporting the economy and that the labour market is weakening faster than anticipated, but also surprise that the Fed may be willing to cut rates faster, which as a general rule can be supportive of US100 index gains.
The press conference may also be a relevant consideration for US 100 price volatility. Traders will be keen to hear Chairman Powell’s stance on the possibility for further rate cuts, with economists predicting just one more 25bps cut into the end of 2025, while the market is pricing another 2 25bps reductions. Any comments he makes on the independence of the US central bank, with an appeal court ruling expected imminently on whether President Trump has the authority to sack Fed Governor Cook, as well as his thoughts on the deterioration of the US labour markets and direction of inflation could also be important.
Technical Update: New All-Time Highs Posted
After reaching a new all-time high of 24142 on Friday, the market continues to show signs of a positive trend, which has been evident since the low of 16290 recorded on April 7th.
As the chart above shows, the market has formed a pattern of higher highs and higher lows. While this doesn’t guarantee that prices will continue to rise, the recent new peak suggests there might be further upward momentum ahead.
Although positive sentiment appears to remain in place, this week’s upcoming data releases and interest rate decision could significantly impact price movements.
As a result, it may be important to identify and then monitor key support and resistance levels in case an increased spell of volatility emerges.
Potential Resistance Levels:
Following the recording of the latest all-time high at 24142 on Friday, traders may be anticipating continued attempts at upward momentum to extend the current uptrend.
The outlook suggests that further attempts to push toward the next resistance levels could emerge in the coming week.
With the US 100 index now entering uncharted territory, traders may be turning their attention to Fibonacci extension levels based on the August 13th to 20th sell-off. The 38.2% extension is at 24368, and if this level is breached, the next potential resistance could be 24607, the 61.8% extension.
Potential Support Levels:
The US 100 recently closed back above the rising Bollinger mid-average, currently at 23606, and so this level could act as the first initial support for the week. If retested, it may be important to monitor whether the market can hold above it on a closing basis.
A closing break below 23606 wouldn’t necessarily signal a negative shift, but it could open the door for a test of 22970, which is the low from August 20th, and potentially lower if that level fails to hold.

TSLA Volatility Contraction Pattern (VCP) LONG When TSLA breaks above 350 and closes, the price will launch to $390 very quickly.
A VCP is a technical pattern, showing lessening declines in a range bound formation. A bull flag showing higher-lows is the best, as seen with TSLA.
Volatility is going to breakout sharply to the upside. If you TSLA above 350 just buy and hold, you’re too late trying to get a better deal.

Simple UO + ADX Futures Strategy📚 Trading Plan with UO + ADX + 9/21 MA
1. Indicator Roles
Ultimate Oscillator (UO): Measures momentum across 3 different timeframes (short, medium, long). I use the lengths 4/8/14.
Overbought: > 70
Oversold: < 30
Neutral: 30–70 range
ADX (14-period, 100 smoothed): Measures trend strength, not direction.
Weak trend: < 17~20
Building trend: 20–25
Strong trend: > 27–30, enter on pullback. A bounce from the 9 or 21 MA.
2. Core Trading Logic
We combine momentum (UO) with trend strength (ADX) to avoid false signals.
Long Setup (Buy):
ADX rising above 23 → trend gaining strength.
UO crosses above 30 from below → confirms bullish momentum.
Confirm price is above 21-day MA (optional filter for trend).
📈 Exit:
UO > 50 and turning down, or
ADX below 17, or
Trailing MA.
Short Setup (Sell):
ADX rising above 27 → trend gaining strength.
UO crosses below 70 from above → confirms bearish momentum.
Confirm price is below 9-day MA (optional filter for trend).
📉 Exit:
UO < 30 and turning up, or
ADX drops below 20, or
Trailing stop.
3. Advanced Filters
Avoid false breakouts: If ADX < 20, ignore UO signals (no strong trend).
Divergence filter: If price makes a new high but UO does not → weakening trend.
Scaling:
Add to winners if ADX > 30 and still rising.
Take partial profits if ADX flattens while UO is in extreme zone.
4. Risk Management
Position sizing: Risk 1–2% of account per trade.
Stop loss: Below recent swing low (for longs) or above swing high (for shorts).
Take profit: Risk:Reward 1:2 minimum, or trail with MA.
5. Example Workflow
Case 1 (Bullish):
ADX rises from 18 → 27 (trend forming).
UO crosses 50 → bullish signal.
Enter long.
Exit when UO > 70 and rolls over, or ADX drops < 20.
Case 2 (Bearish):
ADX rises above 25.
UO crosses below 50.
Enter short.
Exit when UO < 30 and turns up, or ADX weakens.
✅ Summary Ruleset
Trade only when ADX > 23–25 (filter out noise).
Go long: UO crosses > 50 with rising ADX.
Go short: UO crosses < 50 with rising ADX.
Exit on momentum extremes (UO < 30 or > 70) or weakening ADX.
Risk: Keep losses capped at 1–2% of equity per trade.

Apple – Can the Company’s “Awe Dropping” Event Deliver?The Apple share price has been on a roll of late, trading from a low of 224 on August 21st to print a 6 month high of 241 on Friday (Sept 5th), consolidating its position as the third biggest company in the world with a market capitalisation of $3.56 trillion, just behind Microsoft in second place at $3.68 trillion.
However, what happens next for the Apple share price may depend in part on how well traders respond to the company’s biggest product launch of 2025, which is due for release at its “Awe Dropping” event later today.
Apple are due to showcase their next generation iPhone line up, alongside new smartwatches, and other devices. This hardware is seen as important for the future success of the company given Apple has fallen behind its key competitors in the AI space and so needs customers to keep buying these products while it revitalises its plans to catch up.
The Apple Event kicks off at 1800 BST. It could be helpful for traders to monitor the product announcements and keep focused on any impact they have on price action for Apple stock throughout the evening and early trading on Wednesday.
The share price could experience pockets of volatility across this crucial 24 hour period before traders switch their focus to the US inflation releases that are scheduled for 1330 BST Wednesday (PPI) and 1330 BST Thursday (CPI).
Technical Update: Optimism Ahead of the Product Launch?
It might be argued the current price of Apple shares reflects positive investor sentiment ahead of today’s product launch.
Since the April 8th low, traders have consistently bought into price dips, pushing the stock above resistance marked by the previous failure high.
As the chart above shows, improving sentiment has helped form an uptrend in price, with Friday marking the highest trade in Apple shares since March 7th.
While the positive trend is encouraging, it is no guarantee of continued price strength, and much will depend on how the market reacts to this evening’s key sentiment driver.
That said, a close above the 241 high could trigger a further phase of strength toward higher resistance levels.
A successful close above 241 might signal a push toward resistance at 250, which is the February 25th high, or even 260, which is the December 26th peak.
However, if the market reacts negatively to the product launch, breaking key support levels might be an indication for risks of further price declines in Apple’s share price.
As shown in the chart above, the rising Bollinger mid-average, currently at 232, may offer initial support. Last week's decline held at this level, helping to establish fresh buying interest and the latest move to new recovery highs.
As such, the 232 level may serve as the first possible support, with a close below it signalling potential for increased downside risks.
A close below 232 could potentially trigger a deeper decline toward 224, the August 21st low, or even 202, the August monthly downside extreme.
