NZDUSD: Oversold Market & Pullback 🇳🇿🇺🇸
As I predicted, NZDUSD dropped heavily after the release of Retail Sales
data on Monday.
Analysing a price action today, I see that the pair became heavily oversold.
The price formed a falling wedge pattern and a narrow horizontal range within.
Bullish violation of the resistances of the wedge and the range indicate a highly
probable coming pullback.
Targets: 0.5925 / 0.5936

GBPUSDThe pound, like the euro, is also in a long context since yesterday. A clear order flow in the long direction is visible. The target in the form of the previous day's high (PDH) has already been reached in the news-driven movement. I've marked the second target for the day, which is the nearest high-liquidity zone.
eurusd day planGood morning! We continue to be in a short context on all timeframes. The aggressive Frankfurt opening also hints at the context, with all timeframes synchronized. It's also important not to forget that the current short movement has been going on for several days without any correctional moves. The scenario will be invalidated by a price close above 1.062

GBPJPY Analysis
On the 1 hour timeframe, price action created a bearish Change of Character after rejecting off a psychological level at 192.700.
In the process of forming a 1 hour CHOCH, price also created as 15 minute orderblock that hasnt been tested.
I am expecting price to retrace towards the 15 minute unmitigated orderblock before looking for potential sell confirmations during the london session.
Do keep a lookout for this potential set up!
XAUUSD Analysis (16th April 2024)
XAUUSD Analysis
Price action has finally started to show bullish intentions creating a 4 hour Change of Character after sweeping Liquidity at $2325 on Gold.
This tells us price action is gearing up to continue to the upside, potentially creating new All Time Highs.
4 hour has created a bullish Fair Value Gap, so during Asian/London, i want to see price retrace into the 4 hour Fair value Gap before looking for Potential Buys.
Confirmation wise i should see at least a 15 minute change of character, or 5 minute change of character if it gets tapped during the london session.
NZDUSD: One More Bearish Setup 🇳🇿🇺🇸
One more pair that looks very bearish to me after news is NZDUSD.
I see a confirmed bearish breakout of a support line of a horizontal
trading range on an hourly time frame.
I think that a bearish trend on the pair will continue.
Initial target 0.59

EURUSD: Bearish Fundamentals?! 🇪🇺🇺🇸
Looks like the Retail Sales data may strengthen US Dollar today.
As a confirmation, I see a very bearish price action pattern on EURUSD:
bearish breakout of a rising wedge pattern in a bearish trend.

XAUUSD Analysis
On the 15 minute Timeframe, Price broke above the 15 minute lower High, creating a Change of Character.
To Confirm a bullish Bias, i would want to see another Bullish BOS to continue buying gold all the way to the ATH.
However, if price fails to do so and ends up breaking the 4 hour Bullish OB, then price will most likely continue to push lower.
BITCOIN HALVING MYTHSIn a week, another bitcoin halving is expected to take place, which is expected by many cryptocurrency traders. Cryptocurrencies are still a dark horse for traders: sharp price fluctuations in both directions, high volatility attract traders with the supposed simplicity of making money. And although many consider the industry a bubble, there are still enthusiasts willing to take risks.
What Is Halving In Simple Words? 📜
Halving is a reduction for rewarding miners for performing operations on the bitcoin blockchain network. Currently, the reward for solving equations for a block of data on the blockchain is 6.25 bitcoins. After halving, it will be cut exactly in half to 3.125 bitcoin.
Basically, miners act as accountants in the blockchain network or as an equivalent of the collective Central Bank in the blockchain and serve as a guarantee of transparency and veracity of information: it is impossible to fake it in one block without other miners noticing it, but it is necessary to fake the entire chain of operations in the entire blockchain, which is practically impossible. Miners are responsible for processing all transactions: if there were no miners, there would be no new bitcoin transactions.
How Bitcoin's Halving In 2024 Will Affect The Price? 📈📉
Bitcoin's halving in 2024 is one of the most expected and discussed events of the first half of this year. In most cases, analysts cannot clearly explain why the price of BTC (and subsequently other alts) changed, finding unconvincing reasons in hindsight. Therefore, the upcoming event is a reason to try to predict the future behavior of the price before it happens. Halving is a halving of miners' profits. That is, a miner bought expensive equipment, spends electricity in the hope that each block will be rewarded with 6.25 BTC. But then halving occurs and now the reward per block is 3.125 BTC.
In theory, halving means that fewer coins will be mined and some miners will leave the market altogether. This will be followed by an increase in the scarcity of BTC, and therefore an increase in its price. At least, this is how optimists explain the growth of BTC price after halving. But the question is: how will the reduction in the volume of its production contribute to its price increase?
1️⃣ The Approaching Halving Is Already Priced In . This myth is taken from the fundamental analysis of stock market if investors are sure that, for example, if the Fed's interest rate is going to be exactly changed in a month, they buy or sell dollars in advance. However, this does not work in cryptocurrencies for several reasons:
✔️ Halving is embedded in the blockchain and for BTC it is done every 4 years. But that doesn't mean it is already factored into the pricing.
✔️ There are very few people involved in mining. And it is not a fact that investors are basically aware of what halving is and when it will take place. Short-term speculators may still be interested in this information. Those who bought BTC with the expectation that someday it will rise again (or did not sell it after a fall) are hardly interested in it.
✔️ The role of mining in the share of speculative circulation is not high. Market makers rule the market, which can simply squeeze miners with capital.
2️⃣ Bitcoin's Price Will Fall. The halving of bitcoin in 2024 may indeed affect the prices, but not as drastically as many investors would like. An argument in favor of a fall is the example of LTC, which got cheaper before halving profits. Compare the volumes of LTC and BTC, which occupies more than 54% of the entire cryptocurrency circulation. LTC is a speculative instrument, whereas BTC has a large share of long-term capital.
3️⃣ Halving Will Lead To The Annihilation Of The Mining Industry . Supporters of this myth argue that mining is becoming less and less profitable. In addition, more and more startups are being developed on more modern algorithms that do not involve mining. In reality, existing miners aren't going anywhere. Those who have already invested money in it will continue to "recoup" their costs. There will be no influx of new miners, so the mining industry will eventually disappear on its own. But halving will definitely not be to blame for this.
✅ Conclusion
Halving bitcoin's price can affect the price significantly. The price may shift to one side or the other, but there are enough fundamental factors for growth, but not for a fall in price. Therefore, it is very likely that this event will be noticed.
BTCUSD Analysis (13th April 2024)Crypto Analysis (13th April 2024)
BTCUSD Analysis
On the Daily Timeframe, Price action has created a Huge dump due to the 800+ Million Liquidation across multiple different exchanges. Nothing fundamental changed about BTC just yet. Just the usual happenings in the crpyto space.
Price has reached a daily orderblock and has shown strong rejections from that key area and closed the daily with a strong bottom wick indicating rejections.
There are 2 scenarios i see playout.
1) Price has just flipped the new daily candle after creating another huge bottom wick, Buys from here at 67602 is possible to come up to fill the clean candle on the left caused by the sell off. I want to see at least 69252 be tapped.
2) Price fails to hold, breaking the bullish daily orderblock at $64572. Once we see a body candle closure below that level, Sells are alot more likely to occur and i will look for a break and retest set up for shorts to target $60,000.
EURUSD Day PlanWe continue with the short order flow on the euro, and the context remains short as well. There are no significant signs of a reversal observed yet. For a change in sentiment on the primary timeframe, it is important for the price to establish itself above 1.0735. I don't expect any particularly clear movements for the day since the intraday target at PDL has been reached.
EURJPY Analysis (12th April 2024)
Market Analysis PT2/2 (12th April 2024)
EURJPY Analysis
On the 4 hour timeframe, price action has created a a nice support and resistance of about 40 pips wide. This tells us that price on EJ is currently consolidating.
There are 2 potential scenarios here:
1) Price pushes higher, breaking through the 4 hour resistance, and retesting it before going higher. I am leaning towards a bullish Bias due to how the higher timeframe on the weekly and daily is also bullish.
2) IF price decided to break the support, i will wait until the over all Daily Orderblock fails, before looking for potential Sells.
THE KOG REPORT - UpdateEnd of day update from us here at KOG:
In the KOG report on Sunday we gave the extension levels of 2365 and 2372 as bullish targets which as we can see we're extending in to and completed one of them. Yesterday we said unless we broke below the bias level we were likely to take liquidity from higher again, so put caution on the short trades. Again, the opportunity presented itself to long the market which we gladly took for a level to level red box trade adding to the other pairs that hit TP's making this one of the biggest Months so far in terms of completed targets and pip capture in Camelot. For that reason, we're going to take it easy now and wait for CPI unless a clean opportunity arises.
So, what now?
For the remainder of the session and the Asian session we have resistance now 2350-55 which if we manage to hold could give us the potential swing down into the support levels 2330 and below that our bias level 2320! Break above, and we have added a new level for everyone as the potential target region before another expected RIP. We've left the original chart illustration from Sunday's KOG Report as we did say there will be an extension of the move, so for now we'll stick with it unless anything changes tomorrow. Please remember, pre-event price action will entail choppy market movement and conflicting patterns as well as the potential small range forming. Please be cautious on your trading!

GBPJPY Analysis (10th April 2024)
Market Analysis PT1/2 (9th April 2024)
GBPJPY Analysis
On the daily timeframe, Price action has created a daily fair Value Gap. Since the over trend is bullish after creating a bullish Change of Character and a BOS to the upside, I am primarily looking for Longs.
What i want to see price action do is to come into the daily Bullish Fair Value Gap and reject off it, creating a 15 minute/1 hour bullish Change of Character. This will tell me that price action is still bullish and we can continue looking for longs in alignment with the daily timeframe price action.
Ideally price should come and tap into the 1 hour Bullish Orderblock where we can look for potential longs as an added confluence.
Remember to Risk less when trading this Tomorrow as there is CPI and FOMC Minutes coming up so there will be increased volatility in the markets.
EURGBP: Multiple Time Frame Analysis & Bearish Outlook 🇪🇺🇬🇧
Take a look how EURGBP reacted to a daily falling trend line

The market started to consolidate within a narrow range
and was stuck within for 2 trading days.
Today we see a strong bearish movement with a confirmed violation
of the support of the range.
It indicates the strength of the sellers.
We can anticipate a bearish movement lower, at least to 0.8562
