Cross-Checking Gold’s Supertrend Adaptively on MTFAGreetings Esteemed Investors,
I've received numerous inquiries regarding my gold (XAU) long position. Some of you have even suggested that I might be mistaken and consider XAU to be bearish. While I cannot assess your individual trades, I can provide a more detailed explanation of my rationale.
Comparing Indicators
Top Chart: Supertrend
This chart displays XAUUSD daily candles. I prefer daily candles to analyze gold over a year or more, as this helps filter out noise and reduce false signals. Additionally, I've applied TradingView's built-in Supertrend indicator, which often proves profitable over long timeframes. Observe the 2023 yearly chart of XAUUSD; buying when the Supertrend was positive (green) and selling when it was negative (red) would have been profitable.
Bottom Chart: Advanced Dynamic Threshold RSI
The bottom chart also displays XAUUSD daily candles for 2023, but here, multiple timeframes are considered using the Advanced Dynamic Threshold RSI indicator. This indicator generates weighted buy and sell signals based on RSI analysis, dynamic threshold calculation, and optional Bollinger Bands. Note the different RSIs under the candles (blue, green, and orange). The selling signals appear as red triangles and the buy signals are green triangles.
Comparison: Supertrend vs Advanced Dynamic Threshold RSI
Timelines
In 2023's XAUUSD market, I observed that Supertrend tends to indicate bullish trends earlier than my RSI, while my RSI might indicate bearish trends sooner than Supertrend. The dotted lines on both charts show the timeline of the detected trend. The sooner the trend was detected, the earlier the timeline started. This difference in timelines highlights the potential trading advantage of using both indicators together.
Exclusive & Inclusive Cross-Checking Methods
Inclusive Cross-Checking Principle
My Advanced Dynamic Threshold RSI indicator uses an inclusive cross-checking method, where RSI signals from different timeframes must align for a signal to be displayed. This ensures that all RSI indications are in consensus. However, this method makes the indicator slower to react on bullish shifts.
Exclusive Cross-Checking Principle
I used two charts and two indicators to demonstrate the potential of exclusive cross-checking. In this method, a long signal (Buy sticker) is generated if at least one of the indicators shows bullishness. In this case, one exclusive buy signal is sufficient to display the sticker. This method allows for quicker action on bullish trends.
Selective Cross-Checking Principle
Selective cross-checking combines exclusive and inclusive methods. The key is to understand which indicators tend to predict certain developments sooner. In 2023, for XAUUSD, Supertrend was faster for bullish trends and my indicator was faster for bearish trends. So, I wrote rules like the RSI signals of multiple timeframes must align, but I don't require the agreement of Supertrend and MFT RSI to open a position.
Latest Position
I opened a long position on XAUUSD on November 12th. The original stop loss was $1925, and the potential target is $2072. However, I'm using trailing profit, so the risk-reward ratio has changed. I currently wouldn't open a long position, but I'll keep the existing long position until the trail profit activates or the RSI indicator generates a sell signal.

Previous Analysis's
original Analysis below:
How the trade is going since inception;
Please note - three positions are held at any one time.
Forward contracts, CFD and spot fx are used to mitigate risk and fee's.
Original analysis process.
Below is an explanation of the imbalance/inefficiency zones based upon the original analysis view.
1. Zone 1: - 1.72 - 1.75
we will be looking at a test of the order block, movement away to keep shorts flowing to keep the imbalance moving towards the zone of a 1.72 redistribution, liquidity to show bears further short options before the lows.
From here we will expect a spring and a test of said springs.
A rejection will occur and then see accumulation phase of price hitting the target on the AUD USD with bullish Aussie.
2. Exactly the same but making further gains moving down to 1.67-1.60 which will be the development.
We volume will be a key indicator here to see the set up of the buy/sell swaps.
Moving to now...
Monthly imbalances:
Pretty simple breakdown from a monthly perspective, where GBP maxed out in March 2020 and began the sellers imbalance to reach lows of 1.742 as previously stated above.
From a buying retrace imbalance - the targets are set at the 1.87 mark and 1.93 the next target. From a positional buy into 2022 if the 50% monthly Fibonacci retracement permits the target and holds above, then extension of 2.0X will be looked towards.
Weekly imbalance
While the GBP and Aussie is trading within a defined range - adding more positions on the range lows are pivotal here to maintain the long position.
The weekly position now is clear with the daily candle to close within the Weekly, the probability to continue the rally base rally is evident.
The movement since
The pathway
Bullish scenario, combined with the bears using a weekly timeframe is below.
Using the bullish scenario firstly - where the white candles represent the bullish scenario. The weekly imbalance covers a strong are where price has now left after consolidating for weeks and broke through.
Price can now extend and revert back to 1.85XX, this will offer a strong opportunity to add positions here to get to the 2.XX+ target.
The bearish scenario is inclusive - where price can revert back to 1.82 which is a strong pivot point, however this scenario probability is low, as price has now left this zone. Price can create a new zone at 1.85 as a Fibonacci zone.
Volume profile
Here is a weekly profile which shows the bullish nature outperforming the bears.
Where the profile looks to the weekly the 1.82 had the reactive level which was of importance. Since then, has seen a stream of blue. meaning the bulls are in control.
Closely correlated pairs
GBP NZD and EUR AUD weekly chart and monthly chart respectively using correlation and imbalances.
Correlation of GBP AUD vs AUD USD
Imbalance spotting is important to note on one pair like GBP AUD, however the web behind the imbalance is just as important to keep in mind when looking for imbalance trades as pairs are called pairs for a reason.
Looking into two variables where correlation is either Perfect positive correlation +1, 0 or Perfect negative correlation -1 i in simple Lehman's terms.
AUD is coming from a monthly imbalance meanwhile GBP AUD will turn positive where price is coming from a monthly buy imbalance.
Comparing the GBP AUD to the AUD USD - using a monthly correlation grid.
The current at time of analysing is -79.7% negatively correlated. This has been due to the weak USD in play and the positive correlation against the SPX500 and the USD associated with the index. XAU is also a factor here whereby XAU a hedge against inflation and a propulsion for the Aussie to provide further additional strength.
Here is the graphical scale below:
Where by the inverse of the AUD from 0.80 and a low of GBP AUD to 1.768XX, the opportunity arises for short positions and respective longs for the GBP.
The DXY is pivotal
DXY to see the imbalance reverse upon the devaluation of the USD where the FED has created an abundance of credit which has financed the citizens essentially to 'stay put' in cases whereby specific industry sectors within the US are rendered 'useless' until the hospitality and entertainment, aviation can all be kick started again.
Below are the pivotal monthly imbalances on the chart which are hard to not notice. The Monthly imbalances clearly indicate where the profit targets for the DXY are as price has clearly rejected.
Use this monthly imbalance analysis to help trade in a higher time frame.
SPX vs AUD USD
with an importance note of GBP AUD.
The correlation of the SPX and the Aussie is a positive correlation when the SPX is bullish , this allows the AUD USD to remain bullish . With respect for USD purposes where the SPX becomes bearish from an imbalance or has a trend breather, the correlation becomes a sell imbalance for the SPX and AUD based upon the USD having the fundamental safe haven positional stance for investors.
Pre-march
Previous scenario
since the lowest point - where the monthly imbalance had hit the march low.
The current scenario
The update has seen the weekly imbalances from the march low of 2020, where price had a strong inverse correlation between AUD USD, GBP AUD with the DXY spiking also.
Now with a criteria regarding room to towards the imbalance, the monthly and weekly will offer the highly probable reactive levels.
Keep on top of the pairs and specifically the S&P for a fundamental view which affects the AUD.
Using Yields and the Volatility index to provide further evidence.
Be aware of the Yields of the US05 - US20 Year, this can impact the SPX growth and AUD Bullish correlation.

ADA USD - probability of Fibonacci sequence completionHello,
Monthly Zone added to Cardano for reference to show where price has moved from and has a highly reactive zone where price will offer a large opportunity to buy from.
Why is this level important?
Well it is simple - price has offered a corrective retracement upon the dominant leaders sell off of BTC and ETH.
The price lows also net off the previous all time high and use this as a reference point to pivot from.
The previous three monthly wicks have shown opportune moments to add additional positions to current holdings for "longs".
Weekly zone
Again, the weekly has shown the Fibonacci retracement falling from the peak "0" referencing the pivot point where sellers entered the market.
Crypto's seem to heavily retrace to so this is the zone of interest.
Volume
At present the buyers are outweighing the sellers using the previous monthly data on the daily chart.
Dominant Crypto's - using the weekly chart - notice the trend of ETH, BTC respectively.
Enjoy the ride, Staying bullish on this one - using risk adjusted position sizing.

TAL education - long upon confirmsHello,
Please see for the quick analysis referring to TAL education.
Where the chinese government crack down has shown the removal of assets in a snap of finger, the price has dramatically lost value, with shareholders either holding or realising losses.
The monthly chart below shows an opportunity to purchase - upon confirmation.
Here is the daily opportunity
Be aware - without confirms, price can move against you and all foreign holders can be diminished as china will, may want Chinese investors only.
The view is of a weekly reactive level, but be aware for buyers, foreign stock holders of this chinese company, will experience a transition from Nasdaq at some point to Hong Kong - which a volatile exchange.
So for the buying opportunity, await confirms of rejection between the monthly zone.
Thanks,
XYHLX
CAD JPY - 4 hour sell setupOverall CAD JPY is bearish, awaiting the positional sell after the "bounce back" for CAD JPY.
Price is looking to complete the Fibonacci sequence at the desired profit target.
For the entry to become valid - expecting price to reach the desired zone before the sellers react to the price level upon the four hour zone of interest.
Good luck,
XYHLX

USDJPY- Bull Breakout Setup - 4HR
Long Breakout Setup on the 4Hr chart. MTF support formed on the last leg up, which is a good sign. If the trade is triggered, I’m looking for it to reach 112.725, as always, trail the stop with the green dots and watch for the indicator overextension signals
