Bitcoin: Crypto Crisis ComingGreetings to all. I post my first idea on TradingView. At this point in time, the price of bitcoin continues to disappoint its investors, down more than seventy-five percent from its high it was in 2021. On the other hand, this decline begins to increase investment interest in this asset from the financial world. On the weekly chart, we are approaching the beginning of a death cross, which is a pattern that indicates the possibility of a significant drop in the price of an asset. This assumption is confirmed by the continuation of the formation of corrective wave C, which began in November 2021. I believe that in the short term there will be a bounce to the region of $25,000, and then we will continue to move in a downtrend to $14,000 per 1 bitcoin. In this area, I plan to start buying shares of crypto mining companies for the long term. Disclosure: This article may not take into account all the risks and catalysts of the assets described in it.

Dollar IndexHello everyone! There are many tools on the market to understand the general state of the economy or the company. As a rule, indexes are responsible for this. And today we will discuss the Dollar Index. A little history In 1973, the dollar Index (DXY) was invented and first introduced by JP Morgan. Level 100 is the base value of the index. If the instrument shows, for example, a value of 110, it means that the dollar has grown by 10% relative to the base value. As you may remember, in March 1973, the largest countries in the world introduced a floating exchange rate – this date was the beginning of the index. About the index With the help of the dollar index, analysts determine the strength of the dollar as a whole. This is a very simple analysis tool that almost every analyst uses and shows the index how strong or weak the dollar is relative to other world currencies. Method of calculating the dollar index The index consists of weighted components of the following currencies: euro (57.5%), Japanese yen (13.6%), British pound sterling (11.9%), Canadian dollar (9.1%), Swedish krona (4.2%) and Swiss franc (3.6%). As you can see, the currencies with which the dollar is compared are European countries, which is why DXY is called an "anti-European" index. Based on the number of currencies in the index, people believe that the US is compared with six European countries, which is incorrect, since the euro is officially the currency of 19 EU countries: Austria, Belgium, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Spain, Italy, Cyprus, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, the Netherlands, Portugal, Slovakia, Slovenia, Finland, France, Estonia. Add to this 5 more countries — Japan, Great Britain, Canada, Sweden and Switzerland and we get almost the entire civilized world. Although all countries are united by one currency, their economies are still different and therefore each currency of a separate country has a corresponding weight in the index. Dollar Smile One of the Morgan Stanley analysts noticed an interesting feature of the dollar – the dollar can strengthen in both bad and good economic conditions. This analyst was Stephen Jen and it was he who came up with the "dollar smile theory", the essence of which is that the dollar adheres to three scenarios: 1. "safe harbor" - investors believe that the economy is experiencing difficulties, so everyone is investing in less risky dollar assets. 2. When the US economy is weak, the dollar falls. The fall is strongly influenced by interest rates, as a result, everyone gets rid of the dollar, and the smile becomes wider. 3. Perhaps the easiest period to understand is the growth of the dollar due to the economic growth of the United States. People increasingly believe in the country and the currency, which contributes to a greater growth of the dollar. Thanks to this theory, it is easier to understand the market situation in general and the cyclical nature of the market. How to use the index The index is usually used to analyze currency pairs. The index helps to determine the relative strength of the currency relative to the dollar, at those moments when you trade currencies in which there is USD, for example, EURUSD, GBPUSD, USDCHF, etc. The index is also used to find discrepancies. If DXY falls and the dollar weakens, then you will see growth on the GBPUSD chart. If the dollar is the base currency, for example, USDJPY, then the index and the currency pair will move in the same direction. Often you will notice that the dollar index is growing, and the currency pair is standing still – this is the discrepancy, which is very profitable for an observant analyst. In addition to correlation with currency pairs, DXY correlates with oil. The fact is that the largest oil consumers are hedgers of dollar inflation. Hence the inverse correlation of these instruments. Professional analysts, before currency trading, look at the dollar index to understand the trend directions. Conclusions Thanks to the index, you can understand the state of the US economy. DXY is a great addition to your strategy, which helps you identify trends or find discrepancies on the charts. Using the index you will avoid mistakes and increase your profit.

DXY SHORT ANALYSIS TO $82.50 (DAILY TF)This here is my short analysis for the Dollar Index all the way back down to $82.50. This here is the overall bigger direction on the Daily timeframe. My Monthly TF analysis (Posted on my TradingView profile) has led me to believe the Dollar Index will take another dive down, in order to complete the corrective structure in accordance to the Elliot Wave Theory. So far we've seen a completion of the impulse move (Wave 1, 2 & 3) followed by a bearish wave down in 2017 which broke the bullish structure. This move down would be considered Wave A of the correction, WAVE B is also now complete the upside, so now we are expecting one final wave (Wave C) to complete the overall Elliot Wave Theory move. This predicted move is likely to play out over the next few years. All my socials are listed on my TradingView profile. I will be catching this move on behalf of myself & my Account Management investors.
