ETHUSDT - Break Out (Short Term Fun)From Dec 28th and onwards we see intense consolidation... its in the earliest hours of the New Year we see Eth in trajectory for a breakout. It would be interesting to see if current levels held. I like the probability of it rallying on the day beyond $1280--$1330 in price, that is where i have my hopeful eyes steered. However I'm quite content to get there in steps, I like a steady climb. . Its the start of the New Year and the whales will be getting their Fins wet w/ or without you.
The 1.8% bump for ETH/USDT, was an uptick in Market Cap volume reflective of $3Bn+ over a 2 hr time frame
It could be a good day for Ethereum hodlrs. The building on ETH is endless.
Lmao where are these so called "Ethereum" killers... Solana is down 95.3%
Technicals on the time frames indicate strong leaning towards it being a worthwhile hodl & I share similar if not the same sentiment
RoadMap:
Last year was Merge, this year is "SURGE" so upgrade 2023 will be in terms of scalability w/ sharding and rollups. As the gran daddy EVM other projects follow in its footsteps. We could see 100,000 TPS (if we're lucky)

🎄 Happy New Year🎄
I was glad to share my forecasts on crypto and forex in 2022 with you. I hope that my positions were profitable for you.
In 2023, my effort is to deepen my focus on the forex and crypto markets and publish more diverse, and accurate ideas on my page.
As a Christmas Gift, I predict that the current price of Bitcoin is suitable for investment, on the other hand, many of you may be doubtful about the future of this market. If so, Bitcoin in the price range below $14,000 to $11,800 will be suitable for a long-term purchase and investment.
(Although the price may not fall below 14 thousand dollars.)
The best strategy is to buy step-by-step. You can invest in any drop of Bitcoin from the current price to the mentioned levels.
I hope that the new year is full of profit for you and that my analyses would be helpful in this matter
From today, the analysis published on my page will be carried out in the form of these three sections:
Bitcoin Serial Analyses
Gold Serial Analyses
Other Analyses and Profitable Positions
SOL vs AVAX vs MATIC$SOL vs $AVAX vs $MATIC
#SOL was the 1st to hit ATH Top between the 3 tokens (2 weeks ahead of $AVAX, 7 weeks ahead of $MATIC).
Will it also be the 1st to bottom?
More downside risk for $AVAX / $MATIC, while $SOL begins proper accumulation?
Let's see how this plays out, publishing for tracking purposes.
SOL is down 97% from ATH, while MATIC and AVAX are closer to 80-90% drawdown. Cryptos tend to follow/laggard other similar tokens.

Seasonal Anaylsis of JPY As per my anaylsis JPY has been on oversold on RSI and now making a good reversal strong and bullish from last two months but on a month time frame Dec is the month of green candles and red candles on 15 year charts. Please there is an very strong Resistance on 80.42 if its did not break it then jpy chart lools ugly. Because it is also creating a Inverse Cup&handle if if if it complete the move JPY will go around 50-52 Range.
Us 100 possible dropI believe us 100 will drop after hitting one of these two imbalance I believe we will not the too imbalance for a premium price then drop like a rock past the relative equal lows!
Crude Oil Bearish ContinuationNYMEX:CL1!
Crude Oil futures marked on the 1D chart
CL looks like it wants to target $66 on the weekly chart, so here's the daily chart for zoomed in analysis.
Confluences
Relative equal highs (EQH) for internal buyside liquidity rests in the middle of the range.
Imbalance above EQH.
Rejected a past 1D liquidity void.
Rejected a past 1D imbalance.
Overall bearish order flow since the summer; draw on liquidity is lower.
Bearish order block that took buyside liquidity; should now seek sellside on higher time frame.
Break of Structure (BOS)
I believe we may see a midweek reversal for Crude Oil. We are at a discount so a premium will first be sought after (the EQH and imbalance around ~76), but the higher time frame narrative is still bearish until $66.
SPREAD TRADING STRATEGY ON COMMODITIESThis spells trading opportunity for us as Palm Oil and Soybean Oil are generally considered substitute products, which means, at a large enough price difference, buyers may hop over to buy the cheaper one. Eventually closing the price gap back to its historical mean.
Some potential tailwinds for Crude Palm Oil include;
1) The reopening of China, which would increase the demand for palm oil from the world’s 2nd largest importer of the product.
2) Biofuel Mandates, which would put higher demand pressure on Palm Oil .
3) Slowing production growth in palm oil could lead to supply-demand imbalances, pushing palm oil higher as supply falters.
One way to trade this price divergence would be to short the Soybean Oil – Palm Oil spread. This trade can be set up by selling 1 Soybean Oil Futures and buying 1 USD Malaysian Crude Palm Oil Futures . However, do note that in such a set-up, the position is not fully ‘hedged’ as the contract units are different, 1 Soybean Oil Futures has a contract unit of 60,000 Pounds (~27.21 metric tons) while 1 Crude Palm Oil Futures is for 25 metric tons.

EDU: BOTTOMING PATTERN & GAP FILL PLAYEDU ( Chinese stock ):
I'm bullish Chinese stocks in general but I really do like the look of EDU.
A few reasons to keep a good look on EDU:
- price is now above all the moving averages on the daily chart;
- price is getting back above the Ichimoku cloud;
- there is a huge gap between $29.70 and $57.34;
- the weekly chart chart has the look of an inverted head and shoulders (but not really perfect).
Has EDU found a bottom? It looks like it.
Can we fill that gap? Not sure. However the chart looks promising.
The next resistance is at 29.70. If we cross 29.70 I would expect the price to accelerate to the next resistance of 50.27, then potentially fill the gap.
If we see weakness in the coming days, the next supports are at 24 and 22.
I would wait for the price to cross 29.70 before initiating a long position. My 1st target will then be around 50, my second target will be at 57.
Trade safe!
(This is no financial advice. Technical analysis is given to help you make your own decision. As always place a stop loss when you enter the position, and do not ignore risks of delisting for Chinese ADRs).
TAL: inverted head and shoulders and gap fill playTAL (Chinese Stock) :
I'm bullish Chinese stocks in general but I really do like the look of TAL, which looks very similar to EDU.
A few reasons to keep a good look on TAL:
- price is slowly getting back above the Ichimoku cloud;
- there is a huge gap between $9.68 and $17.36;
- the weekly chart chart has the look of an inverted head and shoulders (bottoming pattern).
Has TAL found a bottom? It looks like it.
Can we fill that gap? Not sure. However the chart looks promising.
The next resistances are at 5.45, 5.66, 5.91 and 6.48. If we cross 6.48 I would expect the price to accelerate to the next resistance of 9.68, then potentially fill the gap.
If we see weakness in the coming days, the next supports are at 4.62 and 4.28.
I'm initiating a long position today with a stop around 4.80.
If you cannot monitor your trade actively, waiting for a break of 6.48/6.80 is a wise decision.
Trade safe!
