Opinion: DOGE Coin to 24.5 cents. 136% profit potential

2022-12-04

by

This is an opinion only for potetential Doge coin buyers or holders, not investmenet advice. Doge coin is riskly and can go to zero, too. However, the technicals show me a 136% upside potential. Furthermore, fundamentally, if Elon Musk and Twitter announce at any future stage, a deeper integration for Doge coin, or some other news catalyst comes out of the top Doge coin fan named Elon Musk, who is still one of the biggest influencers in the world,...

UPST technical analysis showing early hints about the crash coming

2022-12-01

by

When someone on TV or anywhere else, talks positively about a stock, then that person should know to answer what the company does. If you do not get an answer, that is a sign that we might have reached ridiculous times. Remember that for next time. It might be, and will probably be, a different type of 'ridiculous' but it will be ridiculous when the herd is greedy, and a sign for you to be fearful. Technical analysis is your friend in such...

VIDEO: Soft landing? Happy days are here a again. A look at the markets post Fed Powell speech.

2022-11-30

by

"Soft landing" may be still a hope, but the market likes those words. The Chair Powell speech/comments were laced with "slower pace", and "soft landing" which was comforting to the markets. So stocks moved higher and that gave dollar sellers the go-ahead to sell the green back, the lower USD, gave the bond traders the go-ahead to buy bonds and send yields lower, and all of that fed on itself.  Happy days are here...

The major currency pairs are settling and waiting for the Fed Chair. The major currency pairs are seeing some mixed price action, but with the pairs like the EURUSD, GBPUSD and USDJPY trading between their 100 and 200 hour MAs.

A trade plan for natural gas futures

2022-11-30

by

The example shows a real setup and possible trade plan, but more than that, it shows swing traders in general how to look and plan their entries (with a technical reasoning and trigger), and their stop loss as well as take profit targets, as they assess their 'risk reward ratio' (also mentioned as reward vs risk ratio, which is the more precise description of the ratio itself). And how a higher or lower ratio relates to the probability of them...

Nasdaq technical analysis: Bears taking it to 11570 ?

2022-11-28

by

I like to look for a 'story' that a chart tells me (in my opinion) and also follow charts in hindsight to learn where those stories developed, where there were hints on the way, etc. For example, if there was a failed breakout up, bulls are trapped, and will be disappointed, which hints on more down. Or if a key level was almost tested but market is still indecisive or weak, that it will probably be retested again. Markets love to poke around and...
