KSS: Growth Prospects Amid High Short InterestKohl's Corporation (NYSE:KSS) , a well-known American department store chain, draws investors' attention not only with its adaptation to current market conditions but also with a significant volume of short sales (short interest), which could serve as a catalyst for a sharp increase in stock price in the short term.
Kohl's is actively working on improving its operational efficiency and adapting to changing consumer preferences through investments in online platforms and updating its product assortment. These strategic steps are aimed at strengthening the company's positions in the long term.
However, in the short term, the high level of short sales on KSS stocks is of particular interest. This indicates that a significant portion of investors are betting on the stock price falling. In situations where market conditions or corporate news turn out to be better than expected, this can lead to a sharp increase in stock price due to covering of short positions (short squeeze), when sellers are forced to buy back shares to close their positions, further enhancing the price increase.
Such a scenario can offer a unique opportunity for risk-ready investors, as even minor positive changes in financial indicators or company news can cause a significant increase in stock value. At the same time, investors need to consider the potential risks associated with high levels of short sales and thoroughly analyze the company's fundamental indicators.
Kohl's continues to demonstrate resilience in challenging market conditions, and with a strategy to improve its market position, the company's shares may offer interesting opportunities for various categories of investors. This is especially true for those looking for speculative investment opportunities in anticipation of a potential short squeeze.

GBPAUD | Daily | Trade IdeaAhead of tomorrow’s RBA Interest rate announcement I’ll be looking closely at GBPAUD, as we can see from the current GBPAUD chart from a top-down and a down-up perspective we can take note of the fact that after managing to break out of the downward retracement last month, GBPAUD mamaged to push steadily upward until reaching our 1.94150 area before “losing momentum” forming a consolidation which has lasted for the past few days from the 17th of January till today where it has been steadily trading sideways.
With the RBA Interest rate decision underway we can expect GBPAUD to finally choose a direction and breakout of the current consolidation, and from my analysis I can expect the GBPAUD to break in an upward/bullish direction pushing towards our 1.97xxx level hence I’ll be looking to hold my current GBPAUD (BUY) positions for now which haven’t yielded much results thus far.
Will be sharing more updates on GBPAUD towards the end of trading tomorrow or early Wednesday morning.
Please take note that this analysis is comprised solely of my personal opinions and outlook of the current market and should not be mistaken for financial advice or indication to enter into a particular trade, please confirm with your own analysis first before entering any trades based on the information from the current chart.

Tesla can't catch a break (light?)! My thoughts on Week of 2/6Just when we thought TSLA was headed for a rebound, we were caught in a series of news that wasn't too hot for our favorite automaker: Everything from brake light recalls to billion dollar compensations rejected. In this Idea, I will detail my thoughts of the week, news that affected the stock, and my analysis for next week.
1/29 LAST WEEK:
The graph shows we've been on a downward channel for TSLA price action. Our purple line within the channel was our expectation from prior to last week (From Idea: ).
What I was not expecting was a continuous downtrend after Wednesday. Affecting news for this downtrend were:
Fed rate decision (priced in), and ruled out March rate cut.
Musk and $55 billion pay package
Possible relocation to another state because of above
Tesla dropped from "Magnificent Seven"
At a point on Friday, TSLA completely decoupled from SPY price action: While SPY was up 1% hitting another record high, TSLA was punished at -3%, until making a quick recovery to the top of the channel at the 0.5 fib mark at $187.90.
2/6 and on:
News, fed meetings, and price action/options flow lead me to believe we will have another choppy week.
2.2 Million vehicle recall on warning lights that are too small. (Doesn't seem like a big deal, but the word "recall" scares investors. )
Over 2400 Steering Complaints Escalated to investigation. (Yahoo Finance)
Tesla settles $1.5 million CA hazardous waste lawsuit (Yahoo Finance)
I also think that the Tesla relocation to Texas would be bearish due to the amount of work and opportunity cost associated to relocating.
With the laundry list of bad news, I don't think we will break for lower lows this week. I think we may have a sharp dip early in the week to the 0.236 fib line of $184. Throughout the week, we have several traditionally hawkish fed members speaking. Investors on the other hand seem poised with a bullish sentiment:
Options expiring 2/6 (per Barchart)
Put/Call Volume Ratio: 0.79
Put/Call Open Interest Ratio: 0.69
With the average call strike price sitting around $192, average put price sitting around $181.
The orange line shows my prediction to the price action based off all the above: An early dip (potential retest to $180), followed by breaking the channel sometime middle of the week, chopping through the rest of the week and ending on a higher note.
I will update with any news that I think may be relevant to TSLA.
Buy NZDJPY Bullish ChannelThe NZD/JPY pair on the M30 timeframe presents a potential buying opportunity due to a well-defined bullish channel pattern. This pattern suggests ongoing upward momentum and a higher likelihood of further advances in the coming minutes or hours.
Key Points:
Bullish Channel: The price has been trading within an upward-sloping channel defined by two converging lines: a rising support line and a rising resistance line. This ongoing uptrend signals continued buying pressure.
Buy Entry: Consider entering a long position around the current price of 90.05, which sits close to the channel support. This could offer an entry point near a potential continuation of the upward move.
Target Levels: Initial bullish targets lie at the resistance levels of 90.73 and 91.06, marking previous resistance zones within the channel.
Stop-Loss: To manage risk, place a stop-loss order below the support line of the broken channel, around 89.85. This helps limit potential losses if the price reverses and breaks back down.

GBP/USD H4 Triangle BreakoutGBP/USD H4 Triangle Breakout Hints at Downside: Potential Sell Opportunity Emerges
The GBP/USD pair on the H4 chart exhibits a bearish signal suggestive of a potential decline in the coming hours. A recent downward breakout from a symmetrical triangle pattern could offer a shorting opportunity.
Key Points:
Triangle Breakout: The price has been consolidating within a triangle formation, characterized by converging support and resistance lines. This often indicates indecision before a decisive move. However, the recent break below the lower support line at 1.2650 signifies a shift in momentum towards the downside.
Sell Entry: Consider entering a short position around the current price of 1.2650, offering an entry point close to the breakout level.
Target Levels: Initial bearish targets lie at the support levels of 1.2422 and 1.2317, marking previous support zones within the triangle.
Stop-Loss: To manage risk, place a stop-loss order above the resistance line of the broken triangle at 1.2800
Fundamental Updates :
January 2024: The NFP report exceeded expectations, showing a gain of 353,000 jobs despite forecasts of 180,000. This robust job growth suggests a strong US labor market and could support the USD by Reinforcing expectations for continued Fed rate hikes: A hawkish Fed stance strengthens the USD against other currencies.
US Consumer Price Index (CPI) (Feb 14): A higher-than-expected inflation reading could strengthen the USD as the Fed might be pressured to raise rates further. Conversely, a lower reading could offer some support to the GBP.

ETH/USDT 1dInterval Chart ReviewHello everyone, I would like to invite you to a review of ETH in pair with USDT, on a one-day time frame. First of all, we can use the blue lines to mark an upward trend channel, in which the price is struggling to exit the channel at the top, but it is clear that it has a problem with this.
Looking at the current situation, we will use the Fib Retracement tool, thanks to which we can determine the prevailing resistance points for price increases. And here, right at the upper border of the channel, there is strong resistance around $2,400, which for now effectively discourages the price from further growth. However, if we see a breakout and a positive test, we will be able to see an upward movement towards the next very strong resistance level at $3,334.
Looking the other way, we can similarly mark places where the price should encounter support. And here, first of all, it is worth determining the support at the level of $2021, which was previously an effective resistance for the price, but then we have a very strong support zone from $1,592 to $1,281, where we could observe reflections in both directions.
When we turn on EMA Cross 10 and 30, we will see that the red line EMA Cross 10 has returned below the green EMA Cross 30, which confirms the return and continuation of the downward trend.
On the RSI indicator, you can determine a downtrend line from which the indicator effectively bounces. However, on the STOCH indicator, there is still room for a potential upward movement, but it is also visible that the current movement resulted in a slight price increase on the chart.

Sell EURUSD H4 Channel BreakoutEUR/USD Poised for Potential Downtrend as Bullish Channel Breaches Lower Boundary.
The EUR/USD pair might be heading south, exhibiting a bearish signal on its H4 chart. A recent breakdown through the lower border of a bullish channel pattern suggests waning upward momentum and a potential shift in trend.
Key Points:
Bullish Channel Breakout: The price had been confined within an ascending channel, characterized by rising support and resistance lines. However, a recent break below the lower support at 1.0900 indicates a potential shift in momentum towards the downside.
Sell Entry: Consider entering a short position around the current price near 1.0900, offering an entry point close to the breakout level.
Target Levels: Initial bearish targets lie at the support levels of 1.0700 and 1.0585, marking the previous bottoms within the channel.
Stop-Loss: To manage risk, place a stop-loss order above the resistance line of the broken channel at 1.0950
EUR/USD News and Events to Watch Next Week (January 29 - February 2):
Federal Reserve (Fed) Meeting and Interest Rate Decision (Jan 31): This is the biggest event of the week. A hawkish Fed stance with another large rate hike (75bps or more) and strong economic projections could significantly strengthen the USD against the EUR. Conversely, dovish hints or smaller rate increases could favor the EUR.
US Non-Farm Payrolls (Feb 2): Strong jobs growth could indicate a resilient US economy and support the USD. Conversely, weaker data could dampen hawkish sentiment and benefit the EUR.
Always wait for strong Conformation in Short term for entry. 👈👈👈

What is TRADING PLAN and how to use it ! What is TRADING PLAN ? A trading plan is a systematic method for identifying and trading securities that takes into consideration a number of variables including time, risk and the investor’s objectives. A trading plan can help traders and investors to achieve consistent results and avoid emotional or impulsive decisions. A trading plan should be written in a clear and concise manner and be regularly reviewed and updated.
One of the main benefits of having a trading plan is that it can help traders and investors to define their personal trading style and goals. For example, some traders may prefer to trade in the forex market, which is the world’s largest financial market and offers high liquidity, around-the-clock trading and the possibility of using leverage. Other traders may opt for the stocks market, which involves buying and selling shares of well-established and financially sound companies, also known as blue chips. Blue chips are generally considered to be less volatile than forex and may offer steady growth potential and dividends to investors.
Another advantage of having a trading plan is that it can help traders and investors to identify the best trading opportunities and strategies for their chosen market and instrument.
A trading plan should include the following elements :
• Entry and exit rules : These are the criteria that determine when to open and close a position, based on technical or fundamental analysis, indicators, signals, patterns, trends, etc.
If I want to explain more, I have to say that Entry and exit rules are the criteria that determine when to open and close a position, based on technical or fundamental analysis, indicators, signals, patterns, trends, etc1. They are essential for having a trading plan and a trading strategy, as they help traders and investors to define their personal trading style and goals, identify the best trading opportunities and strategies, and manage their risk and reward.
For example, if you are a trend-following trader, you may use a moving average crossover as an entry rule, meaning that you buy when a faster moving average crosses above a slower moving average, indicating an uptrend, and you sell when the opposite happens, indicating a downtrend. You may also use a trailing stop as an exit rule, meaning that you adjust your stop-loss order to follow the price as it moves in your favor, locking in some profits and protecting yourself from a reversal.
Entry and exit rules can vary depending on the market, instrument, time frame, and trading style that you choose. They can also be combined with other tools and techniques, such as risk-reward ratio, position sizing, diversification, etc. The key is to have clear and consistent entry and exit rules that suit your trading plan and objectives, and to follow them diligently.
• Risk management : Risk management is the process of controlling the potential losses and maximizing the potential gains of each trade, by using tools such as stop-loss orders, profit targets, position sizing, diversification, etc. Risk management helps traders and investors to protect their trading accounts from losing all of its money and to achieve consistent results.
Some common risk management strategies for traders are2:
Determining your risk appetite : This means knowing how much you are willing to risk on each trade, based on your trading goals, capital, and risk tolerance. A common rule of thumb is to never risk more than 1% of your account on any single trade.
Knowing your risk-reward ratio : This means calculating the expected return of each trade, compared to the potential loss. A risk-reward ratio of 2:1 or higher is generally considered favorable, meaning that the potential profit is twice as large as the potential loss.
Using stop-loss orders : These are orders that automatically close your position when the price reaches a certain level, to limit your losses. Stop-loss orders can be fixed or trailing, meaning that they can follow the price as it moves in your favor.
Using profit targets : These are orders that automatically close your position when the price reaches a certain level, to lock in your profits. Profit targets can help you to exit the market at the optimal time and avoid greed or fear.
Position sizing : This means adjusting the size of your position according to your risk appetite, risk-reward ratio, and market conditions. Position sizing can help you to balance your portfolio and diversify your risk.
Diversification : This means spreading your risk across different markets, instruments, time frames, and strategies. Diversification can help you to reduce your exposure to specific risks and increase your chances of success.
Risk management is an essential but often overlooked prerequisite to successful trading. By following a rational and objective approach to risk management, you can avoid common pitfalls such as overtrading, undertrading, revenge trading, fear of missing out, etc. Risk management can also increase your confidence, discipline, and consistency, which are vital for success in the financial markets.
• Performance evaluation : This is the method of measuring and analyzing the results of the trading plan, by using metrics such as win rate, risk-reward ratio, drawdown, return on investment, etc.
A trading plan is not a static document, but a dynamic one that should be adapted to the changing market conditions and the trader’s or investor’s experience and skills. A trading plan should be tested and backtested before being implemented in the live market, and should be reviewed and revised periodically to ensure its effectiveness and suitability.
Having a trading plan in forex and stocks market can help traders and investors to achieve their financial goals and avoid common pitfalls such as overtrading, undertrading, revenge trading, fear of missing out, etc. A trading plan can also increase the trader’s or investor’s confidence, discipline and consistency, which are essential for success in the financial markets.

BTC/USDT 1DInterval Chart Long-TermHello everyone, I invite you to check the current situation on BTC in the USDT pair, taking into account the One Day interval.
First, we will use blue lines to mark the main channel of the upward trend, from which the price tried to exit at the bottom, but we can see a quick return to the channel.
Then we can similarly determine the second channel that is starting to form, with a downward trend.
And here we can mark a lower peak, then a lower bottom, and currently we can see that a slightly but higher peak has formed, in this situation it is worth watching whether we will see the formation of a higher bottom, which could result in a strong price rebound again.
In such a situation, we will unfold the Fib Retracement sait to check in which places we can expect possible support. And here we see support at the level of $41,829, then we have support at the level of $40,582, and then again we should keep in mind the zone from $39,680 to $38,553.
When we turn on the EMA Cross 10 and 30 indicator, we will see an interesting situation, because we can see how the red line is trying to go up from the green line 30, which would confirm the return to the strong upward trend and result in a further price increase.
If such a situation occurs, it is worth knowing that the price is currently testing resistance around 0.382 Fib, and then we can see significant resistance around $45,030, we must also take into account the very strong resistance zone from $46,779 to $49,024, where current price peak.
However, here please pay attention to the RSI indicator, which can be used to determine the downward trend line, at which you can see the indicator rebounding again, and you can see that there is room for the continuation of the downward trend. Moreover, when we switch to the STOCH indicator, we will see a movement near the upper limit of the range, with room for a rebound in the price and the indicator, which may translate into a downward move or a temporary sideways trend.

Gold's fundamental analysis involves considering various factors that influence its value. Key elements include:
Interest Rates: Gold and interest rates have an inverse relationship. When interest rates are low, gold becomes more attractive as it doesn't offer a yield. Conversely, higher rates may divert investors towards interest-bearing assets.
Inflation: Gold is often viewed as a hedge against inflation. During periods of rising inflation, investors may turn to gold to preserve their wealth.
Global Economic Conditions: Economic instability or geopolitical tensions can drive investors towards gold as a safe-haven asset.
Central Bank Policies: Actions taken by central banks, such as buying or selling gold reserves, can impact gold prices.
Currency Strength: Gold is priced in USD, so changes in the strength of the US dollar can influence gold prices. A weaker dollar typically boosts gold prices.
Supply and Demand: Like any commodity, gold's price is influenced by supply and demand dynamics.
Mining Costs: The cost of mining can influence the production levels and, consequently, the supply of gold in the market.
Market Sentiment: Public perception and investor sentiment also play a role. Market sentiment can be influenced by news, economic reports, and overall market conditions.
Remember, a comprehensive analysis should consider a combination of these factors, and it's crucial to stay updated on global economic trends and events that might impact the market.
XAU BULLS 📈 The xau market is on a bullish momentum and just as the analysis indicates, we're going bullish to the 70's before a retracement and then a continued buy. It is sef that we could break the highest highs of the xau market, updates on the analysis would be published as the market moves
