US 100 Index - Is 17404/749 Support Important?As European traders return from their extended Easter break they turn on their screens to find US assets back under pressure. The US 100 index dropped 2.2% yesterday to close at 17779, which included a late rally from a mid session low at 17570.
These moves are potentially reflecting a growing unease around numerous important issues, including, a lack of progress in trade talks with US allies, US economic growth concerns and President Trump's on-going challenge to Federal Reserve independence.
Looking forward, US 100 traders have a lot to focus on this week, Tesla reports its earnings after the close tonight, against a backdrop of weekend news reports which suggested it may be about to delay production of cheaper EVs. That aside, investors may also be focused on sales projections for 2025, autonomous driving plans and the impact of tariffs on the company's profitability.
It may well be a similar story when Alphabet reports its earnings after the close on Thursday.
Throw in the latest April Preliminary PMI Survey releases on Wednesday from the developed economies, which could well start to show the impact of tariffs on growth, business sentiment and inflation, and it is possible that the recent US 100 index volatility could continue across the week.
Technical Update: Could Potential Support at 17404/17749 Be Important?
As impressive as the 18% recovery in the US 100 index from the April 7th 2025 low to the April 10th 2025 high (16290 up to 19222) appeared, after the latest price weakness, this upside may prove to be a limited reactive move, although further confirmation may still be required.
As the chart above shows, the latest upside strength saw the index back to what some traders may have viewed as an important resistance, marked by a combination of the declining Bollinger mid-average (18992 at the time) and the 50% Fibonacci retracement of the February 18th 2025 to April 7th 2025 weakness, which stands at 19258.
With the latest price activity seeing weakness materialise again, it might now be suggested
this potential resistance range remains the important focus on the topside, although much will depend on future market sentiment and price trends.
With this in mind, what are the potential supports we might wish to monitor, to help us gauge how much further the current weakness may have to carry?
Possible Support Levels:
Fibonacci retracements can offer an insight into potential support zones, with them possibly able to hold, even reverse price weakness back to the upside. Therefore, 17404/17749, which is equal to the 50% and 61.8% Fibonacci retracements of the April price strength, maybe an area traders are currently focusing on.
However, there could still be potential for a further period of price weakness if this 17404/17749 range is broken on a closing basis. In that case, the next support may well then be represented by the April 7th 2025 session low at 16290, possibly further, if this in turn gives way.
Possible Resistance Levels:
The 17404/17749 support range is still intact, and while this remains the case on a closing basis, attempts at price strength could still be seen. However, with the declining Bollinger mid-average currently at 18648 and having recently seen it reverse attempts at price strength, closing breaks above this level might be required to trigger a more extended phase of strength.
That said, as proved the case in early April, 19258, the 50% Fibonacci retracement level, may also now need to give way on a closing basis, to suggest further attempts to develop price strength towards higher resistance levels.

Gold or Bitcoin - Which is the better hedge for 2024?Short answer: Bitcoin
By the year end Bitcoin shall enjoy stronger gains. That is despite the 2-week Gravestone DOJI candle now currently printing on Bitcoin, which makes you wonder… what heinous price action awaits gold bugs?
On the above 3-day chart a ratio of Gold/Bitcoin is shown. If this ratio is downtrending (it is), Bitcoin will be worth more than Gold with each passing week and vice versa.
A Death Cross has now printed on the above 3-day chart after broken market structure. Expect the ratio to climb to confirm past support as resistance.
The 3-day death cross is significant. Look left. The last 3-day death cross printed on March 2016 (below). Gold lost 99% of its value against Bitcoin from that time. Now I’m not saying that is going to repeat, however the point would be that a 3-day death cross is not something you ignore.

Which is the better hold for preserving ones wealth?
In 2023, it was Bitcoin.

In 2022, it was Gold. Idea below. Bitcoin correction throughout 2022 made Gold the only option during the bear market.

Industrial ETF May Face ResistanceThe SPDR Select Sector Industrial ETF dropped in early April, and some traders may expect another push to the downside.
The first pattern on today’s chart is the March 13 low of $128.26. XLI peaked $0.44 under that level this month, which may suggest old support has become new resistance.
Second, the 50-day simple moving average (SMA) recently had a “death cross” below its 200-day SMA. That may suggest the long-term trend has gotten more bearish.
Third, the stochastics oscillator’s leading line crossed under the smoothing signal line.
Fourth, the 8-day exponential moving average (EMA) has remained under the 21-day EMA.
Finally, XLI hit a 52-weeek low of $112.75 on April 7. Is a retest of that support needed?

$INJ: Preparing for a Possible Impulsive Move UpCRYPTOCAP:INJ – Setting Up for a Potential Impulsive Move
After a sharp correction, CRYPTOCAP:INJ may be preparing for a strong rebound.
In a previous idea, I forecasted a bottom at $8.5 — and it dipped even lower to $7, fully retracing last year's pump.
The price broke below the bearish flag after a clear bearish divergence at the top. It also sliced through my green buy zone and is now sitting right on a critical support level at $8.40.
🚀 Signs of recovery are starting to show:
🔹 MACD is climbing and approaching the median line — a bullish crossover could ignite an impulsive rally.
🔹 Price is stabilizing above the key $8.40 support.
🔹 RSI is low and consolidating — signaling potential upside.
🔹 Volume is quiet — often a precursor to strong moves.
The target is to re-integrate the green liquidity zone, to prepare another explosive pump.
📅 Reminder: around this time last year, CRYPTOCAP:INJ pulled off a 4x rally. While past performance doesn't guarantee future results, the setup looks promising.

$ONDO: Potential Reversal in SightLSE:ONDO : Potential Reversal in Sight
Signs suggest that LSE:ONDO may have reached the bottom of its consolidation phase, having fully retraced to its August 2024 lows. Momentum is shifting:
MACD is climbing toward the median — a breakout above could signal the start of an explosive uptrend.
RSI remains neutral, leaving room for a strong move in either direction.
Volume is near all-time lows, often a precursor to a breakout.
If the projected move plays out, the next resistance levels (based on Fibonacci ratios) are:
🔹 TP1: $0.94
🔹 TP2: $1.17
🔹 TP3: $1.35

MicroStrategy (MSTR) - Breakout watch if BTC co-operatesMSTR is looking healthy above its major moving averages after forming what appears to be a developing triple bottom.
If you have a bullish thesis on the price of bitcoin at its current level, MSTR is very compelling. Any longs could have a clearly defined risk in the region of the moving averages which also aligns with an untested POC and anchored VWAP from the lows.

MEMEUSDT ShortMEMEUSDT had a strong breakout from the 4H EMA50 — up 23%! This setup is perfect for a short without a stop, using scaling in.
There’s a chance price might reach the daily EMA50 — if it does, I’ll add more to the short from there. The target will be adjusted based on how the 4H EMA50 moves.
Celsius Holdings Outperforms Market with Strong YTD GainsCelsius Holdings Inc. (CELH) continues to attract significant investor attention, closing at $37.24 on April 17, up $0.58 (1.58%). The functional energy drink maker has delivered impressive year-to-date returns of 41.38%, substantially outpacing the S&P 500's 10.18% gain during the same period.
For the current quarter, analysts expect earnings of $0.20 per share, representing a 25.9% year-over-year decline. However, consensus estimates have improved dramatically with a 32.8% upward revision over the last 30 days. The full-year outlook appears more favorable, with projected earnings of $0.99 per share indicating a 41.4% annual increase, followed by 15.1% growth to $1.14 per share next fiscal year.
Current quarter sales are expected to decline slightly to $345.26 million (-2.9%), but full-year revenue estimates show robust growth of 55.3% to $2.1 billion, followed by 19.4% growth next fiscal year. Celsius has demonstrated strong execution recently, beating earnings estimates in three of the last four quarters.
Technical Analysis
Technically, the chart shows a strong recovery from its $21.10 low. Price has recently broken above the 50-day moving average but remains below the 200-day moving average, suggesting improving momentum within a longer-term downtrend. Key resistance appears around $47-49, marked by a horizontal level that previously acted as support.
Volume has increased during recent price advances, adding credibility to the current uptrend. The next major challenge will be overcoming the $49 resistance zone before potentially continuing toward higher targets as indicated in the chart projection. If price faces rejection, it is likely to drop back to support at around $25.
Keurig Dr Pepper Holds Steady Ahead of Quarterly EarningsKeurig Dr Pepper (KDP) shares have shown resilience in recent weeks, climbing 5.9% over the past month while the broader S&P 500 declined by 6.9%. The beverage giant currently trades at $35.40, up $0.29 (0.83%), with 13.96 million shares traded. Analysts maintain a consensus "Hold" rating as KDP approaches its upcoming earnings announcement.
Wall Street expects the company to report earnings of $0.38 per share, unchanged from the year-ago quarter, while revenue is projected to reach $3.56 billion, representing a 2.8% year-over-year increase.
The company has seen minor positive revisions to its earnings estimates, with consensus EPS projections increasing by 0.1% over the past 30 days. This modest upward adjustment could signal improving analyst sentiment about KDP's near-term performance.
Breaking down the revenue expectations by segment, analysts forecast U.S. Refreshment Beverages will lead growth at $2.23 billion, up 6.6% year-over-year. Meanwhile, U.S. Coffee is expected to contract slightly to $884.51 million (-2.9%), and International sales may decrease to $448.32 million (-3.4%).
Technical Analysis
From a technical perspective, KDP has established an ascending trend line since reaching a low of $30.12. The stock currently trades above both its 50-day, 100-day and 200-day moving averages, suggesting positive momentum. The chart shows resistance around the $36 level, with support at the trend line near $33.60. Trading volume has increased during recent uptrend, potentially indicating stronger buyer conviction.
