SPY Another -10% Fall Incoming?Here in this video, I would like to help you guys understand my perspective for SPY for these next upcoming months. I believe its very possible that we could see another -10% fall from today's close. My overall target would be the low of august sell off, and as I mentioned in the video, I truly believe that sell off back in August was just a flash of what's to come. Most importantly, done panic. Huge sell off leads to great buying opportunities. Wishing you all the best! I'd love to hear you guys perspective as well!

How to Spot a Reversal Before It Happens (Before Your SL Hits)You know the feeling. You’re confidently riding a winning trend, high on the euphoria of green candles, when—BAM—the market flips faster than a politician in an election year. Your once-perfect trade is now a humiliating red mess, and your stop loss is the only thing standing between you and financial pain. But what if you could see that reversal coming before it smacks you in the face? What if, instead of watching your profits evaporate, you could exit like a pro—or better yet, flip your position and ride the reversal in the other direction? Reversals don’t happen out of thin air. The signs are always there—you just have to know where to look. In this idea, we break down how to spot reversals before they happen. 😉 Price Action: The Market’s Way of Dropping Hints Markets don’t just change direction because they feel like it. Reversals happen when sentiment shifts—when buyers and sellers agree, sometimes all at once, that the current trend has run its course. The first clue? Price action itself. Look for hesitation. A strong uptrend should be making higher highs and higher lows. A downtrend should be carving out lower lows and lower highs. But what happens when that rhythm starts breaking? A higher high forms, but the next low dips below the previous one? Warning sign. Price approaches a key resistance level, but momentum stalls, and candles start looking indecisive? Caution flag. A massive engulfing candle wipes out the last three sessions? Somebody just hit the eject button. Before markets reverse, they throw up some red flags first—and depending on your time frame, these red flags can give you a heads up so you can prepare for what’s coming. 🔑 Divergence: When Your Indicators Are Screaming "Lies!" Indicators might be lagging, but they’re not useless—especially when they start disagreeing with price. This is where divergence comes in. If the price is making new highs, but your favorite momentum indicator (RSI, MACD, Stochastic—you name it) isn’t? That’s a major warning sign. Bearish Divergence: Price makes a higher high, but RSI or MACD makes a lower high. Translation? The momentum behind the move is fizzling out. Bullish Divergence: Price makes a lower low, but RSI or MACD makes a higher low. Translation? Sellers are losing their grip, and a bounce might be coming. Divergences don’t mean immediate reversals, but they do suggest that something’s off. And when the market starts whispering, it’s best to listen before it starts shouting. 📍 Volume: Who’s Actually Driving the Move? A trend without volume is like a car running on fumes—it’s only a matter of time before it stalls. One of the clearest signs of a potential reversal is a divergence between price and volume. If price is pushing higher, but volume is drying up? Buyers are getting exhausted. If price is tanking, but selling volume isn’t increasing? The bears might be running out of steam. If a major support or resistance level gets tested with huge volume and a violent rejection? That’s not a coincidence—it’s a battle, and one side is losing. Reversals tend to be violent because traders are caught off guard. Watching the volume can help you avoid being one of them. 📊 Key Levels: Where the Market Loves to Reverse Price doesn’t move in a vacuum. There are levels where reversals love to happen. Support and Resistance: The most obvious, yet most ignored. When price approaches a level that’s been historically respected, pay attention. Fibonacci Retracements: Markets are weirdly obsessed with 38.2%, 50%, and 61.8% retracement levels. If a trend starts stalling near these zones, don’t ignore it. Psychological Numbers: Round numbers (like 1.2000 in Forex , $500 in stocks , or $120,000 in Bitcoin BITSTAMP:BTCUSD act like magnets. The more traders fixate on them, the more likely they become reversal points. Smart money isn’t chasing prices randomly. They’re watching these levels—and if you’re not, you might consider doing it. 🚨 Candlestick Warnings: When the Market Paints a Picture Candlesticks aren’t just pretty chart elements that give you a sense of thrill—they tell stories. Some of them hint at “reversal.” Doji: The ultimate indecision candle. If one pops up after a strong trend, the market is questioning itself. Engulfing Candles: A single candle that completely erases the previous one? That’s power shifting sides. Pin Bars (Hammer/Inverted Hammer, Shooting Star): Long wicks show rejection. When they appear at key levels, reversals often follow. Candlestick patterns alone aren’t enough, but when they show up alongside other reversal signals, they’re hard to ignore. 📰 The News Factor: When Fundamentals Crash the Party Technical traders like to pretend breaking news doesn’t matter—until it does. Earnings reports , economic data , interest rate decisions ECONOMICS:USINTR —these events can turn a strong trend into a dumpster fire instantly. A stock making all-time highs right before earnings? Tread carefully. A currency pair trending up before an inflation report? One bad number, and it’s lights out. A crypto rally before a major regulation announcement? That could end badly. Reversals don’t always come from charts alone. Sometimes, they come from the real world. And the market rarely gives second chances. ✨ The Reversal Cheat Sheet: When Everything Aligns A single signal doesn’t guarantee a reversal. But when multiple factors line up? That’s when you need to take action. If you see: ✅ Divergence on indicators ✅ Volume drying up or spiking at a key level ✅ A major support/resistance level getting tested ✅ Reversal candlestick patterns forming ✅ News lurking in the background Then congratulations—you’ve likely spotted a reversal before your stop loss takes the hit. ✍ Conclusion: Stay Ahead, Not Behind Catching reversals before they happen isn’t magic—it’s just about knowing where to look. Price action, volume, key levels, indicators, and even the news all leave clues. The problem? Most traders only see them after their account takes the hit. Don’t be most traders. Pay attention, recognize the signs, and act before the market flips the script on you. Because the best time to spot a reversal? Before it happens. Do you use any of these strategies to spot reversals in your trading? What’s the last time you did it and what were you trading—forex, crypto, stocks or something else? Let us know in the comments!

How to pick a benchmark for you portfolio and beat the market What is a benchmark? A benchmark is an index or a basket of assets used to evaluate the performance of an investment portfolio In the context of portfolio analysis the benchmark serves as a point of comparison to determine whether a fund a strategy or an investment is performing better worse or in line with the reference market. In the current chart, Bitcoin ( BINANCE:BTCUSDT ) is displayed with a solid and larger blue line in relation to other cryptocurrencies for the current period. Benchmarks are essential tools for institutional and private investors as they allow measuring the effectiveness of asset allocation choices and risk management Additionally they help determine the added value of an active manager compared to a passive market replication strategy. Benchmark analysis example: NASDAQ:TSLA - NASDAQ:NDX Benchmark analysis example: NASDAQ:TSLA - NASDAQ:AAPL - NASDAQ:NDX What is the purpose of a benchmark The use of a benchmark in portfolio analysis has several objectives 1) Performance Evaluation: Provides a parameter to compare the portfolio's return against the market or other funds 2) Risk Analysis: Allows comparing the volatility of the portfolio against that of the benchmark offering a measure of risk management 3) Performance Attribution: Helps distinguish between returns derived from asset selection and those linked to market factors 4) Expectation Management: Supports investors and managers in assessing whether a portfolio is meeting expected return objectives 5) Strategy Control: If a portfolio deviates excessively from the benchmark it may signal the need to review the investment strategy How to select an appropriate benchmark? The choice of the correct benchmark depends on several factors: 1) Consistency with Portfolio Objective: The benchmark should reflect the market or sector in which the portfolio operates 2) Representativeness of Portfolio Assets: The benchmark should have a composition similar to that of the portfolio to ensure a fair comparison 3) Transparency and Data Availability: It must be easily accessible and calculated with clear and public methodologies 4) Stability Over Time: A good benchmark should not be subject to frequent modifications to ensure reliable historical comparison 5) Compatible Risk and Return: The benchmark should have a risk and return profile similar to that of the portfolio Most used benchmarks There are different benchmarks based on asset type and reference market Here are some of the most common. Equity FRED:SP500 Representative index of the 500 largest US companies. NYSE:MSCI World Includes companies from various developed countries ideal for global strategies FTSE:FTSEMIB Benchmark for the Italian stock market NASDAQ:NDX Represents the largest technology and growth companies Bonds Barclays Global Aggregate Bond Index Broad benchmark for the global bond market JP Morgan Emerging Market Bond Index EMBI Benchmark for emerging market debt [* ]BofA Merrill Lynch US High Yield Index Representative of the high-yield bond market junk bonds Mixed or Balanced 6040 Portfolio Benchmark 60 equities SP 500 and 40 bonds Bloomberg US Aggregate used to evaluate balanced portfolios Morningstar Moderate Allocation Index Suitable for moderate-risk investment strategies Alternative HFRI Fund Weighted Composite Index Benchmark for hedge funds Goldman Sachs Commodity Index GSCI Used for commodity-related strategies Bitcoin Index CoinDesk BPI Benchmark for cryptocurrencies A reference benchmark is essential in portfolio analysis to measure performance manage risk and evaluate investment strategies The selection of an appropriate benchmark must be consistent with the strategy and market of the portfolio to ensure meaningful comparison. Understanding and correctly selecting the benchmark allows investors to optimize their decisions and improve long-term results.

Trump Fuels Crypto Rally with Strategic Reserve. What’s Inside?The lines are finally rocketing upward! Bored crypto traders suddenly turned into hyperventilating market mavens after Donald Trump on Sunday unveiled the creation of a “strategic crypto reserve.” Names were named and those names pumped by 10% or more as enthusiastic buyers couldn’t get enough of them. Here’s who made the short list: Bitcoin BITSTAMP:BTCUSD Ethereum BITSTAMP:ETHUSD XRP BITSTAMP:XRPUSD Solana COINBASE:SOLUSD Cardano COINBASE:ADAUSD These five made the cut as the only blue-chip tokens worthy to be recognized by the White House’s crypto working group, which finally got something out after staying tight-lipped for weeks. “A U.S. Crypto Reserve will elevate this critical industry after years of corrupt attacks by the Biden Administration, which is why my Executive Order on Digital Assets directed the Presidential Working Group to move forward on a Crypto Strategic Reserve that includes XRP, SOL, and ADA,” Trump said on Truth Social . “I will make sure the U.S. is the Crypto Capital of the World.” “And, obviously, BTC and ETH, as other valuable Cryptocurrencies, will be at the heart of the Reserve,” he said in a follow-up post . “I also love Bitcoin and Ethereum!” Cardano’s token was the biggest gainer moments after the announcement, pumping more than 60% to cross the dollar mark. XRP soared more than 30% to eclipse $2.80 and Solana followed up with a 20% advance to $170 a pop. Bitcoin and Ethereum, the two heavyweights of the crypto world , climbed 10% and 12%, respectively. Let’s break down what all this means. A key thing to note is that Trump changed the wording from a crypto “stockpile” to a crypto “reserve.” A reserve would imply that the US government will be collecting, i.e. buying, digital assets for the purpose of holding them right next to its other reserves like gold XAUUSD . The US holds about $770 billion worth of gold. No proportions, weighting or targets have been announced for the crypto reserve. But this Friday Trump will be hosting the first-ever crypto venue in the White House. The White House Crypto Summit will be chaired by the administration’s AI and Crypto Czar David Sacks and will feature a speech by the President. Traders and investors will most likely be glued to the screens for any signs of government adoption and warm legislation. Obviously, the White House getting involved with crypto is a big deal and perhaps even a watershed moment. But crypto is notoriously volatile and the good (or bad?) old market adage “buy the rumor, sell the news” might hold true more times than traders want to admit. Do you expect this news to be the start of a new upside swing for crypto? Or is it another frothy move that would soon fizzle? Share your thoughts in the comments!

Market Update - 3/2/2025Strong relative strength in car related names, especially from China, but finance names especially in insurance and credit, as well as real estate seem to be the leaders. All of these I'm reading as positive signs given these are cyclicals. On Friday we had an accumulation day on the AMEX:IWM which is my first sign to start looking for good RS stocks for potential entry in case we start a new uptrend. I think short term the market is oversold and next week we'll see a rally, but I'm not sure long term if that rally can hold. Either way, I still don't have any positions and did not buy anything the whole week, so I'm still cautious and in protective mode.

US DOLLAR: Sell Opportunity after support breakTVC:DXY has broken below a key support zone, indicating a potential shift in momentum. The price is now retesting this zone, which previously acted as support and could serve as resistance, aligning with a potential bearish continuation. If sellers confirm resistance at this level, the price is likely to decline further toward the 105.800 target , which aligns with a major support level. Conversely, a breakout above the zone could signal further upside. Before considering short positions, look for bearish confirmation signals such as bearish engulfing candles, strong wicks rejecting the resistance zone, or increased selling volume. Just my take on support and resistance zones—not financial advice. Always confirm your setups and trade with solid risk management. Best of luck!

TESLA I Its not only EV Cars. Elon Musk predicting 1000% growthThis is not a short-term trade as you know from me on FX, Crypto and Indices. This is buy and hold investment. I got already good bag of share and Im still adding without trying to time if perfectly, but now I think its time to buy bigger positions. Tesla is my 3rd biggest position after the Bitcoin and Strategy (MicroStrategy). Many people see it only as an EV cars company, but it's not all what they do, just read bellow to see why I see a huge potential in this company. 📍 Why Tesla is Considered a Top Investment Tesla stands out as a leading player in the EV market, with a strong brand and a history of delivering innovative products. In 2024, it produced about 459,000 vehicles and delivered over 495,000 in the fourth quarter alone, showcasing its ability to meet growing demand Tesla Fourth Quarter 2024 Production, Deliveries & Deployments. 💾Financially, Tesla reported $97,690 million in total revenue for 2024, with the automotive segment contributing $87,604 million and energy solutions adding $10,086 million Tesla, Inc. Annual Report on Form 10-K for 2024. This diversification into energy, alongside investments in autonomous driving, positions Tesla for long-term growth, making it attractive for investors seeking exposure to future trends in sustainability and technology. 📍 What Tesla Does Beyond EV Cars Beyond EVs, Tesla is deeply involved in energy solutions: 📍 Solar Products: Offers solar panels and solar roofs for clean energy generation. 📍 Energy Storage: Provides Powerwall for homes and Megapack for large-scale projects, helping stabilize grids and manage energy costs. 📍 Charging Infrastructure : Operates a network of Supercharger stations, increasingly open to other EVs. Services: Includes vehicle maintenance through service centers and body shops. 📍 Robotaxi: Plans to launch a fully autonomous ride-hailing service in June 2025 in Austin, Texas, potentially opening new revenue streams Tesla's robotaxis by June? Musk turns to Texas for hands-off regulation. 📍 Tesla Optimus: Developing a general-purpose robotic humanoid for tasks like household chores or industrial work, which could lead to new markets. This expansion into energy and services, along with unexpected ventures like Robotaxi and Tesla Optimus, enhances Tesla's role in the transition to sustainable energy and technology, offering benefits like grid stability and potential robotics applications. The growth in the energy segment, with a 67% increase from 2023 to 2024, highlights Tesla's expanding role in sustainability, potentially attracting investors focused on long-term trends. Additionally, Tesla's commitment to innovation, particularly in autonomous driving technology, is noteworthy. The company is developing features like Full Self-Driving (FSD), which could open new revenue streams, such as robotaxi services, enhancing its investment appeal. 🤔I think Optimus and Robotaxi will exceed rapidly exceed their EV cars revenue. Elon musk is predicing over 1000% growth in 5 years. Which would be way above $2900 without stocks splits. I m a bit conservative and I think we can go somewhere between 3 - 4 standard deviations. Wishing you continued success on your trading journey. May this educational post inspire you to become an even better trader! “Adapt what is useful, reject what is useless, and add what is specifically your own.” David Perk ⚔

Nvidia Flexes Bold Guidance but Can the Chipmaker Deliver on It?Chief Jensen Huang showed hubris on the earnings call right after Nvidia NVDA reported another blockbuster quarter with record sales and soaring profits. He said that demand for the new Blackwell chip is “amazing.” “Well, I'm more enthusiastic today than I was at CES We have some 350 plants manufacturing the 1.5 million components that go into each one of the Blackwell racks, Grace Blackwell racks. Yes, it's extremely complicated,” Huang said. “Nothing is easy about what we’re doing, but we’re doing great.” Everyone and their dog was glued to the screen after-hours Wednesday, waiting to hear what the most important person for the stock market was going to say. And many were hoping it’ll be good and Nvidia will save us from the recent selloff that spilled from tech stocks to all stocks . And indeed, it was another stellar performance by Nvidia. For the fourth quarter ended January 26, the chipmaking giant pulled in record revenue of $39.3 billion, up 80% from a year ago, topping analyst estimates for $38 billion. Earnings per share reached $0.89 against Wall Street guidance for $0.84 a pop. Net income landed at $22.1 billion, up 80% from a year earlier. Without a doubt, Nvidia continued its string of record-shattering results. And, what’s more, that’s also what Nvidia thinks will happen with the current quarter. The company projected revenue of $43 billion for the first three months of 2025, up 65% from the year-ago quarter when sales hit $26 billion . To get to that figure, and keep the growth going, Nvidia will need to retain all its deep-pocketed clients like Amazon AMZN , Meta META , Microsoft MSFT and Alphabet GOOGL . These four alone make up about half of Nvidia’s revenue. Other customers with buckets of cash include ChatGPT parent OpenAI and Elon Musk’s Tesla TSLA . As to the share price, investors didn’t really cheer the upbeat guidance or the double beat on both earnings and revenue. The stock showed virtually no reaction in extended trading — could it be that markets expected an even bigger blowout performance? Or maybe they don’t believe in Nvidia’s business model after DeepSeek achieved for mere millions what OpenAI achieved for hundreds of millions? Year to date, Nvidia, the second-largest company in the world , is down 5% to $3.2 trillion. It’s drifted about 10% away from the all-time high hit in early January. And with this, make sure to closely watch the earnings calendar for other hot reports as AI history is being made before our eyes. What’s your take on Nvidia’s future? Do you think its Big Tech clients will soon whip up their own AI chips? Or is Nvidia’s AI dominance set in stone? Share your thoughts in the comment section!

Multiple markets2.26.25 there are a number of markets signing up for reversal patterns to go higher. I think that Tesla probably start finding buyers. oils at a support area so I would be looking for buyers. I think we will find some buyers on bitcoin and gold.... but there may be some more downside to but I wouldn't start a short position in gold or Bitcoin. there might be some upside on coffee. and I know there were some other markets I talked about... Palladium was one of them. I did not preview this video if I made mistakes... sorry about that I was stressed for time.

The Power of a Trading Journal: Key to Consistent SuccessHave you ever pondered what distinguishes successful traders from those who struggle for consistent profits? One key tool, often underestimated, is the trading journal. Both research and practical experience demonstrate that traders who diligently track their performance and critically assess their decisions tend to enhance their trading skills and overall results over time. While financial markets can seem erratic, a well-maintained trading journal can provide clarity regarding your trading behavior and highlight areas ripe for improvement. Understanding the Trading Journal At its core, a trading journal serves as a comprehensive record of your trades, detailing every decision and its corresponding outcome. However, it goes beyond a mere tally of wins and losses; it acts as a robust instrument for self-reflection and growth. By keeping an organized log, traders can identify recurring patterns, refine their strategies, and cultivate greater discipline in their trading practices. In essence, a trading journal empowers you to track your performance while offering meaningful insights for informed decision-making. What Constitutes a Trading Journal? A trading journal is a personalized record of your trading journey designed to document every aspect of your experiences. Unlike a basic transaction log, it encompasses insights into your decisions, emotional states, and strategies, thereby providing an in-depth perspective on your trading habits and performance over time. This journal functions as a roadmap, enabling you to analyze your actions, learn from missteps, and recognize successful patterns to replicate in future trades. Essential Components of a Trading Journal 1. Trade Details: Log fundamental information for each trade, including the date, instrument, entry and exit points, position size, and the outcome. 2. Trade Analysis and Rationale: Capture the reasons behind each trade, such as market analysis, utilized indicators, or significant news events influencing your decision. 3. Emotional Insights: Document the emotions felt before, during, and after each trade, which will help you identify emotional triggers impacting your decision-making. 4. Results and Lessons Learned: Reflect on the trade’s outcome and the insights gained. Did it align with your expectations? What could be improved next time? By consistently maintaining these entries, your trading journal will allow for systematic performance tracking, enabling you to conduct insightful trade analysis and continuously enhance your trading methodology. The Key Benefits of a Trading Journal Maintaining a trading journal provides numerous benefits that can significantly elevate your trading performance over time. From honing decision-making skills to fostering emotional discipline, a trading journal is an invaluable asset for anyone committed to enhancing their trading approach. 1. Enhanced Decision-Making: Analyzing past trades enables you to discern patterns in your decision-making process, both successful and otherwise. You might uncover that certain strategies work better under specific market conditions or that impulsive trades frequently lead to losses. Understanding these patterns grants you valuable insights for making informed, calculated choices in future trades. 2. Improved Emotional Control: Trading often involves a rollercoaster of emotions, with factors like fear and greed skewing decision-making. Documenting your feelings during trades can help you identify emotional triggers and develop strategies to manage them, maintaining objectivity and preventing emotions from derailing your trading plan. Over time, this fosters emotional control, which is crucial for sustained trading success. 3. Increased Consistency and Discipline: A trading journal encourages consistency by promoting adherence to your trading plan and strategies. By recording every trade—regardless of its outcome—you cultivate a disciplined mindset that helps you avoid impulsive decisions and maintain a structured approach aligned with your objectives. How to Establish Your Trading Journal Creating a trading journal is quite simple; the key lies in selecting the right format and knowing what to document. Follow this guide to set up a journal that effectively tracks your trading performance and identifies growth opportunities. Selecting Your Format: 1. Digital Applications: Tools like Evernote, OneNote, or specialized trading journal software offer accessibility, data backup, and automation. Many apps include analytics features for streamlined performance tracking. 2. Spreadsheets: Utilizing Excel or Google Sheets affords flexibility and customization. You can craft a spreadsheet tailored to your needs, complete with specified fields, formulas, and visualizations. 3. Paper Journals: For those who prefer a tactile approach, a traditional notebook can suffice. While writing by hand fosters reflection, it lacks digital conveniences like searchable records. Crucial Information to Record: To enhance the effectiveness of your trading journal, make sure to include these key data points: - Entry and Exit Points: Log the precise times and prices at which trades are entered and exited. - Position Size and Trade Details: Note the trade size, instrument, and any pertinent details. - Motivation for the Trade: Document the analysis or strategy that influenced your trade decision, whether rooted in technical analysis, fundamental factors, or broader market trends. - Emotional State: Record your feelings throughout the trading process to better understand emotional influences. - Trade Outcome and Lessons: Reflect on the trade's success and any insights gained, noting what worked well or what didn’t. Starting a trading journal requires minimal time but can significantly affect your long-term ability to track performance and improve. Read Also: Reviewing Your Trading Journal for Growth A trading journal can only yield benefits if you regularly review and analyze its contents. Consistent reviews enable you to identify patterns, adjust strategies, and enhance your trading acumen. Setting Review Periods: Designate time—weekly, biweekly, or monthly—to review your journal. These sessions reinforce your commitment to your goals and reveal areas needing adjustment, ensuring ongoing learning from your trades. Spotting Patterns and Mistakes: Analyze your trades for recurring themes. Determine if you consistently act on particular signals or if emotional responses lead to poor decision-making. Acknowledging frequent mistakes marks the first step toward correcting detrimental behaviors. Implementing Adjustments: Leverage insights from your journal to modify your trading strategies. If a specific method isn’t yielding results, revise or replace it accordingly. If certain emotional triggers lead to losses, develop coping mechanisms to mitigate their influence. By committing to regular reviews, you can transform your trading experiences into invaluable lessons that foster better habits and skills. Read Also: Maximizing the Benefits of Your Trading Journal To fully reap the rewards of a trading journal, it's crucial to engage with it effectively. Here are tips to enhance your journaling experience: 1. Maintain Consistency: Regularly enter details after every trade or at least daily. This practice captures relevant details while they’re recent, building a robust record for analysis. 2. Practice Honesty: Accurately document both successes and failures. A truthful account allows for clearer insights into areas needing improvement, as self-awareness plays a vital role in progress. 3. Utilize Visuals: Incorporate charts, graphs, or screenshots to enrich your journal. Visual aids facilitate pattern recognition and provide a more comprehensive understanding of your trading performance. Read Also: Conclusion: The Transformative Role of a Trading Journal A trading journal is an essential tool for any trader pursuing consistent success. By meticulously recording trades, scrutinizing decisions, and learning from both victories and defeats, you can sharpen your skills, master your emotions, and cultivate a disciplined approach to the markets. Beyond merely documenting past trades, a trading journal offers critical insights that can profoundly influence your long-term performance. By consistently utilizing this resource, you can decipher your unique trading habits, refine strategies, and ultimately boost your confidence in decision-making. ✅ Please share your thoughts about this article in the comments section below and HIT LIKE if you appreciate my post.
