btc longterm analysisHello folks! Today will see the expiry of 49,400 BTC worth of outstanding derivative contracts. This is equivalent to $328 million in Bitcoin open interest. Surely a return to volatility yeah! Let's see tuesday where the market close but I have already an idea... Fans are typically drawn from changes in trend or reversal points such as tops or bottoms and are a good way to measure a market's trend or strength. During an uptrend, if price stays in the space above an ascending angle without breaking below it, the market is considered bullish . During a downtrend, if price remains below a descending angle without breaking above it, the market is considered bearish . It's a powerful indicator and it becomes even more powerful if you combine it with another powerful indicator like Ichimoku I have done a lot of good shorts from the beginning of the month. Let's take a look at the weekly chart with ichimoku >>>>

btc longterm analysis weekly with IchimokuFurther analysis of monthly chart. We saw that at the start of the month the prices broke the bullish Gann fan trendline (red circle). The prices are below the cloud which means that we are more bearish but we await a confirmation of the Ichimoku lagging span which has already made a first contact with the gann fan bullish trendline (pink circle) . After this first contact we see the price and the lagging span which are recovering in buying force, which is a rather natural reaction with Ichimoku^^ But, the cloud twist (green circle) tells us that there is a high probability that the price move inside a big range. Feeling reinforced by the last two weekly candles (blue circle) (see the closing in a few hours) which make a big wick on the tenkan and the kijun aligned. in this case we will see the lagging span confirm and come out of the cloud so that the prices head towards the bottom of the range (around $3500)

GBPNZD Documented Type 1 Trade + 69 Pip PotentialThe above is the documented Type 1 Trade on GBPNZD pursuant to the Gold Method Ichimoku: We had all 4 Horseman aligned and it was a good solid trade to end the week. Allen Since I was sick last week and have not caught up with documenting those trades, I have not filled in the spreadsheet as it is POA to enter data out of order, and done a weekly review. I anticipate being caught up by next week and will make the post accordingly.

BTCUSD - Chikou Span for the Bullish case, heading into $8550BTC is currently in interesting position. Using Ichimoku system we can trade and take bullish scenario into consideration. If we observe current location of Chikou Span breakout outside the cloud was clear. The bullish can be made with another breakout above $8550 resistance, otherwise Chikou Span will cross inside the price which means prolonged consolidation and bearish scenario (price heading outside the cloud). Uptrend is valid until $7800 zone breaks and Kijun is at $8000 where heavy support is expected. Great market to trade at the moment with a lot of tension from both buyers and sellers.

The Gold Method Ichimoku Weekly ReviewHere is the Weekly review for the week of January 20th through the 24th: Another strange week as the GBP pairs remained in a consolidation. We only took one trade, which was a failed breakout on GBPAUD on Monday for a loss of -27.6 pips. Recognizing and adapting to the current market conditions we became more selective with our trades. By doing so we avoided taking three more losses this week and you can never discount the benefit of not putting a hole in your account. Moreover, we did have 2 trades that came close but did not reach our entry and therefore were invalidated. A huge benefit of using specific entries is that it allows us to have a small stop loss and hence a larger position based (based on risk%). The downside is sometimes, like this week, we will miss trades. So there it is, the first losing week for the Gold Method Ichimoku since we started. Consolidation is followed by expansion, market fact!! Stay Green my friends, Allen

The Gold Method Ichimoku Weekly ReviewThis week tested our patience and discipline in the Trade room for The Gold Method Ichimoku. Here is a day by day breakdown: Monday, we passed on both a breakout trade and a MA trade, both of which made money. However, despite the potential result the decision to stay out based on the market conditions at the time was correct. Tuesday, we had a very nice Type 1 Break out trade on GBPNZD which was good for 26 pips. Wednesday, we took a news/MA trade in GBPJPY that we closed flat. Thursday, we had a Type 1 Breakout trade in GBPCHF which quickly jumped up 10 pips, but then unfortunately failed. Friday, While we got teased with a couple of potential trades before UK retail sales, we got a News/MA trade in GBPJPY after that went for 45 Pips. ( I closed my position flat as did some others). However several traders who needed the trade to get above their BFV stayed in and accomplished the goal. Well Done!!! Sincerely, Allen Gold Since I have had several more traders inquire about the book and I hate to turn people away, if you are interested in the book, please send me an email at FXGOLD54@gmail.com
