Warning signs... ETH signalling more downside?The signs were starting to develop, but yesterday really brought the picture into clearer focus:
- ETH daily showing downside potential with RSI divergence to price
- MACD (longer MA settings) starting to cross down
My daily stop-and-reverse system has gotten me out of everything. So sitting on the side lines until things change:
P.S. This is marked as a short idea, but I never actually go short, just bearish for now. #LongOnly

AAPL long ideaNASDAQ:AAPL yet another all time high.
I will nibble a bit here; I would like a 1:3 risk:reward trade therefore the target has no bearing on any area of value. Only the stop level is derived from a close below the 50EMA, which I'll use as a trailing stop loss for this trade.
Apple is Apple, there isn't much one can say from a fundamental analysis perspective. The brand keep the fans cuming, forgive me, I couldn't resist.
CSL @ 7 SEP 2021CSL
- Previous analysis was done on 2 Sep -> suggested half entry around 307 levels if comfortable with overhead resistance zone
- Recent price action has seen the stock nicely rebounded of the counter-trendline -> This is significant as the counter-trendline used to be a resistance (red arrows) but has now become a support (green arrow)
- Be mindful of overhead resistance zone and suggest to manage risk by entering half position
- Topping up remaining half position after overhead resistance is broken
- If missed previously suggested entry around 307 levels, current price still presents some opportunities
- R is below 10%
- Strategy-to-buy (DYOR) – Suggest half entry around 310 levels if comfortable with overhead resistance zone
Bitcoin Surges Up!Blink and you can end up missing some big moves in Bitcoin which is taking on a
life of its own. This instrument was showing signs of weakness in May this year
where it fell to below $30,000 and hit the weekly 50 simple moving average.
In July, the buyers came back into the market and have pushed price up 79%
to where it currently stands at over $50,000.
Although the last 2 months have been bullish, price is still over $13,000 away
from the all-time high at $64,895 so there is still a bit of fight for the bulls
to overcome.
This current decline followed by the bounce could easily turn into a long-term
period of consolidation that could last for months and even years. Right now
though, the momentum could take price to record highs.
With Bitcoin on the move, you will notice that other coins are starting to move
too and Ethereum is another strong cryptocurrency. Bitcoin is seen as the main
cryptocurrency and the index for this market that shows us how this market
is performing overall.
We now want to see price breakout and rally through the rest of the year.

As always, keep it simple, keep it Sublime.
More Record Highs For The S&P 500!The S&P 500 continues to climb up the slope formed from the 20 and 50 simple
moving averages. In the last post, price had broken above a previous high at
$4480, and has now moved up another 1.5%.
The trend in this Index is strong, and we can see a nice pattern of higher highs
and higher lows forming here.
It was only back in April when price was approaching the $4,000 round number,
and there was some uncertainty whether price would make it past.
5 months later and price has moved well beyond that level and looks set to
move towards $5,000.
The journey to $5,000 may be a bumpy one as we might see periods of
consolidation and other forms of turbulence along the way.
Price is halfway there and the market currently looks strong as a whole,
with stocks creating record highs in the strong sectors such as Health Care
and Real Estate.
We shall continue to take only the highest probability opportunities to
increase our edge over the market.

As always, keep it simple, keep it Sublime.

Bitcoin Second Rally?If we take our minds back to May this year, we will recall the fall that Bitcoin
and most of the cryptocurrency market endured.
There was a lot of panic selling and buyers were scrambling to get into Bitcoin
at a cheaper price as it had fallen from over $64,000 to just under $29,000.
Price hovered around $29,000 from May to July until the buyers could build up
enough momentum to push price up.
At the support level, we can see that the 50 simple moving average helped to
hold price up and gave price that final push upwards.
Above price we have the $50,000 round number, which may act as a psychological
level of resistance. Price has now tagged this level. If it breaks above this level
and completely clears it, we then want to see price move towards the all-time
high at $64,895.
The rally in Bitcoin may not be over just yet but let’s see how price reacts to
levels of resistance in the way.
See below for more information on our trading techniques.
As always, keep it simple, keep it Sublime.
EUR/USD Forecast (newbie analyst)Overall long term i expect the bearish trend to continue,but when the price goes to the yellow support/resistance levels to slow down momentum and possibly go in stagnation.As the price goes to the red support/resistance levels it will give us oppurtunities to look for price chart patterns for reversal.
P.S. Feedback will be highly appreciated as i want to improve my skills since im very new to this!
Support/Resistance levels legend :
Green : Very likely for the price to pass (low support/resistance)
Yellow : Unlikely to passs.(medium support/resistance )
Red : Very unlikely for the price to pass ( hard support/resistance)
