🇺🇸 Rising Unemployment Claims Signal Labor Market Softening

US500 - Long-Term Long!Hello TradingView Family / Fellow Traders. This is Richard, also known as theSignalyst.
📈US500 has been overall bullish trading within the rising channel marked in blue.
Moreover, it is retesting its previous all-time high at $4,800 and round number $5,000.
🏹 Thus, the highlighted blue circle is a strong area to look for buy setups as it is the intersection of previous ATH and lower blue trendline acting as a non-horizontal support.
📚 As per my trading style:
As #US500 approaches the blue circle zone, I will be looking for bullish reversal setups (like a double bottom pattern, trendline break , and so on...)
📚 Always follow your trading plan regarding entry, risk management, and trade management.
Good luck!

If the price enter these red-marked zones!Gold Market Analysis (Engulfing & Zone-Based Strategy)
This analysis is based on a straightforward zone-trading method using engulfing patterns and filtered key levels. The marked zones on the chart highlight high-probability trading areas.
Red Zones (Sell Areas):
If the price enters these red-marked zones, we look for bearish confirmation to enter sell trades.
These zones are derived from the 4H timeframe, making them more reliable. If the market reacts from here, you can target around 60–80 pips in profit.
A second sell zone offers potential for a larger move—up to 150+ pips—if the price respects it.
Green Zones (Buy Areas):
If the price drops and enters the green-marked zone, it’s a signal to look for buy setups.
This area may deliver a strong bounce, potentially yielding 100+ pips.
There’s no need for complicated patterns or indicators—just follow the zones. If the price hits a zone and shows confirmation, you trade it.
Trade at your own risk DYOR!!

Wyckoff Cycle - Practical Example (SUI)Dear TradingView community and fellow traders,
I am Richard, also known as theSignalyst.
I find the SUI daily chart to be intriguing as it appears to be following the famous Wyckoff Cycle.
I would like to apply Richard Wyckoff's four market stages/phases to this chart for analysis as a practical example.
1️⃣ Accumulation
SUI rejected the $0.50 round number and entered an accumulation phase, consolidating for several months.
2️⃣ MarkUp
After breaking above the accumulation range at $1, SUI kicked off the markup phase.
3️⃣ Distribution
SUI found resistance at the $5.50 round number, with the lower bound of its range near $4—forming a wide distribution phase.
4️⃣ MarkDown
Once SUI broke below the $4 major low and exited the distribution zone, it transitioned into the markdown phase.
🔄🔄🔄🔄🔄⬇️
1️⃣ Accumulation
After finding support around the $2 round number, SUI hovered within a range, forming another accumulation phase.
2️⃣ MarkUp
We're here 🙂 This week, SUI broke above the $2.80 major high and the accumulation range—signaling the beginning of a new markup phase.
❓ What's next?
Will SUI continue to trade higher from here, or will this cycle play out differently?
I hope you find this post useful, and I would appreciate your likes and support.
Which scenario do you think is more likely to happen first? and why?
📚 Always follow your trading plan regarding entry, risk management, and trade management.
Good luck!

📈 Medium-Term : SOL has been overall bearish and it is currently trading within the flat wedge pattern marked in red.
📍 As it retests the lower bound of the wedge — which perfectly intersects with the $100 round number — I’ll be looking for short-term longs.
🚀 In parallel, for the bulls to take over in the long term and kick off the next bullish phase, a breakout above the $147 previous daily high is needed.
