US10Y
Gold Portfolio UpdateGOLD has reached my short-term target of $1,925.62 selling 70% of my accumulation averaging $1,679.25. Similarly, the VanEck Junior Gold Miners ETF (GDXJ) reached my short-term target selling 50% of my accumulation averaging $27.96
GOLD: 14.63% profit of 10% portfolio equity
GDXJ: 44.83% profit of 5% portfolio equity
I am keeping liquidity in Gold as my long-term outlook remains bullish and to hedge against the poor macroeconomic environment. The reason for the large profit-taking include:
- Major resistance in both charts (GOLD & GDXJ)
- Momentum indicator over-bought (GOLD & GDXJ)
- US10Y in major resistance:
-DXY in resistance and will rise once equities will stop rising
Overall, trimming on gold because of great returns. My long-term outlook remains very bullish for gold and gold miners. I believe demand for gold will continue to rise in the long term because of its material and hedge against poor international economics (deglobalization, uncertainties, recession, slow growth,...)
For personal recording
US10Y Hit a 9month support. Critical moment for the market.The US10Y hit today, in the aftermath of the 6.5% U.S. CPI, the Higher Lows (HL) Support line that has been in effect for 9 months (started on March 7th 2022). With 1D technicals bearish but not heavily (RSI = 42.655, MACD = -0.035, ADX = 36.284), the trend is undecided at the moment, at least on the short-term.
Though we see a clear Channel Down since the October 21st 2022 Top, the price can give a short-term bounce back to (and above) the 1D MA50 and the top of the Channel. Eventually, with the macro-economic outlook on the bond market changing, we believe the bearish trend will prevail on the long-term, with our immediate target being the 1D MA200.

Peak Equities?Happy Dump Year! What a shocking year... equities dropping, bond market failing and energy skyrocketing. Almost a perfect storm ain't it?
But something ain't right... Have we passed the dump year or are we just started? Which number will we be talking about in the future, 22 or 23?
And another question... have equities peaked?
For the past year, bonds have been outperforming equities.
But equities have been holding relatively strong despite the monumental increase in yields.
Now we might have reached the point of diminishing returns.
Every move we make is beginning to turn up against us.
The similarity to the Great Depression is stunning.
Stochastics don't help the situation much. Even if a total crash does not occur, the product looks fated to move horizontally.
The cover chart pinpoints us on a fib retracement, with much resistance above. The drawn levels were respected throughout the last 15 years.
Other equity comparisons follow suit...
The charts above attempt to objectively calculate the price of equities compared to the cost of money.
This chart below attempts to calculate the excess performance SPX has, compared to the performance of an investment in bonds. It is further modified by PPIACO, the producer price cost.
Printed on the chart are some beautiful bull flags, and some very historically-important retracements. Equities will have much trouble gaining traction compared to bonds.
This year, the relative performance of equities compared to bonds, showed a 60% drop.
So 2022 was definitely a Dump Year. This is massive of a figure for the equity market, measured as relative performance. Also the bond market has suffered a lot this year.
If equities have already sustained a massive hit compared to bonds, who will be the next to take the dive? Since their product (their cumulative profit) has just now showed signs of stagnation.
Will equities drop again or bonds, or both? It smells like 2023 will have some sort of dump...
An analysis of equity mutual funds compared to bond-focused mutual funds could have a lot to say... I leave it as an exercise for the TradingView community. Feel free to tag me if you analyze anything regarding it!
PS. Happy Dump Days as of now (The peak of the product chart), for the main indices are:
DJI: Nov. 8, 2022
SPX: Nov. 10, 2022
NDQ: Oct. 25, 2022
Take a look at price action of the indices after that day if you are curious on how real prices translated from that day onwards.
Tread lightly, for this is hallowed ground.

US10y vs FED rate. Should u put $ into bank or buy gold? 10/Jan/US2Y and 10Y bonds yields always “follow” FED rate paths. Now we “see” some “experts” encouraged us to “save” money into banks (especially USD denominated a.c) to gain higher rate. Hope to enjoy high fixed guaranteed return like early 1980s which was above 10%!!! Looking at those chart and gold price do you think “fixed deposits “ into bank is “worth” as investments?
Energy ready for prime-time?An updated view
Pattern taken from reverse symmetry.
Elliott Waves
Stochastic RSI Oscillators
The 12 Month oscillator pushes everything upwards. Since the 3M oscillator is at it's top, we expect a short drop until mid 2023. It will be short because of the effect of the 1M oscillator as well as the 12M one.
Oscillators tell us that it is probable for price of energy to drop until Q2 of 2023 and then begin it's rally. Energy could very well increase now. The ABC Elliott wave shown on the main chart is alarming.
An alternate scenario is this.
A 5-step Elliott wave.
Either of them could play out.
Tread lightly, for this is hallowed ground.

Financial (in)stability mechanismsI have posted many times regarding volatility, especially the VVIX&VIX relationship.
There are times when mechanisms need to activate to stabilize the economy, the psychology, the society. Recessions, wars, pandemics are periods that may justify such actions.
It is wise for an investor to understand pressures and their direction. The motto "Don't fight the FED" and "Don't go against the trend" should be applied everywhere.
A very rapid growth like in 2016 needed suppression, or else equities would have gone parabolic.
Increasing yields makes growth harder. So the thought process back then was to suppress growth. I have some theories on why they wanted growth suppression. My ideas are extreme as they are, so I will try to put them into the suppressing field.
After this parabolic growth that occured backstage, the recession nobody remembers ocurred.
Yields suppress growth.
Yields as a stability mechanism.
Yield increases however can cause the opposite problem, money scarcity and liquidity problems.
Yields cause recessions.
Yields as an instability mechanism.
_______________________________________________________
Now onto VIX.
This year's recession was a time when financial stability had to occur to calm the markets. Back in 1929 we didn't have such mechanisms. The main chart, VVIX, shows us that there is substantial volatility management backstage.
While I don't know the mechanisms for SPX and VIX stabilization, I have some theories. There are now massive hedge funds that can easily stabilize the equity/derivative market. VIX is a traded index, so hoarding contracts could in theory artificially change the VIX value. That is why I advised on volatility analysis by comparing VIX with volatility indicators.
Hedge Funds (amongst other mechanisms) suppress volatility.
Smart Money as a stability mechanism.
I have posted before about the VVIX/VIX chart and how it can help us analyze SPX growth stability.
So the question arises, how much and for how long have markets been manipulated? Surely in 1929 there was nothing one could do to stabilize the markets. That is why the recession was so deep and painful. We had no brakes.
Manipulation/stabilization works in a consistent manner, when VIX peaks we suppress it. Suppression works by making VIX more predictable and less spiky. So inherently VIX manipulation decreases VVIX. With these charts we can see the stabilization mechanism in action.
In the middle of the 2008 recession, in May-June we had this period when psychology briefly changed from pessimism to optimism.
It is the denial phase of psychology. More about that in the "VIX | The effect on SPX" idea linked below.
It is this vicious cycle during the VIX manipulation period that drags us further down inside the recession.
VIX suppression cycle pulls economy into a vicious cycle.
Stability mechanisms as instability mechanisms.
_______________________________________________________
Onto some speculation:
Perhaps we are in a long-term recession, since 2018. Again, look into "The Cake is a Lie" idea.
Back in 2018 we were in a recession while equities were rapidly increasing. Now we are growing with equities dropping. This is nuts!!!
Look at this VVIX/VIX chart comparison.
In this chart I have hidden the price of VVIX/VIX and left just the EMA Ribbon. That is what we live through now. I drew a retracement from this specific point in time so as to better pinpoint the possible targets for VVIX/VIX.
This chart suggests that we have never went through the crisis since 2018. I know this is crazy to say, but look at this chart below.
RSI divergence confirms that. Perhaps the RSI of SPX correlates better to the VVIX/VIX chart.
_______________________________________________________
Conclusion:
So where does this leaves us? The fact that we have passed through two periods of upside down phenomena (2018 and 2021), when equities were increasing in a recession, and vice versa. This troubles me, as to how much is hidden. How big of a problem are we in and we have just not realized it yet. Moral of the story again? Don't believe what you are told and what you are shown. Don't listen to me as well. Do your own research.
There may still be massive volatility ahead of us. VVIX is suppressed by more than 30%. If VVIX returns to normal levels ~120 and the VVIX/VIX targets are correct, this means that VIX will increase 3.5x from what it is now. As a number it makes sense because it takes us to the peak of the 2020 Black Swan. VIX has every possibility to go incredibly high.
QE and Stabilization Mechanisms themselves have caused this fog. In our attempt to stabilize the economy, we have clouded our vision.
The suppressing field will be shut off, on the day we have mastered ourselves. On the day we can prove, we no longer need it. And that day of transformation, I have it on good authority, is close at hand.

US10Y 🇺🇸 U.S. 10-Year Interest Rate History (1913 - 2022) One of the biggest "shocks" in the 22' financial markets is the breaking of the long-term (weekly) trend in Interest Rates — specifically the U.S. 10-Year Treasury (US10Y), which has gone through now two long-term trend cycles since it’s history dating back to 1913.
Given the inflation fight that the Federal Reserve is currently waging, while at the same time keeping in mind the structural debt-load that the U.S. 🇺🇸 is current burdened with, this begs the question can rates actually go higher from here?
While we do not know the answer as to the actual trajectory of interest rates into 23’ and beyond — what we do know is that given the structural debt load, we can speculate that at some point rates will likely be forced lower as a proxy of stabilizing inflation and also total debt servicing obligations of the U.S. Government.
Also keep in mind comments by J. Powell and the Federal Reserve as they have been preparing investors for a new macro regime of “higher for longer” .
Should this actually play out and not just be the "hawkish tone" of the Federal Reserve that is helping to push interest rates higher, investors must consider the ramifications that could come IF we have truly entered a new (rising) interest rate regime that includes structurally higher rates as part of the next 40+ year historical cycles.
Here is the same chart of the (US10Y) paired against the backdrop of other macro indicators including Federal Reserve Balance Sheet, as they give us insight as to both the bull and bear thesis for yields moving forward:
U.S. 10-Year (US10Y) vs. Fed Funds Rate (FEDFUNDS) 📊
U.S. 10-Year (US10Y) vs. U.S. Inflation Rate YoY (USIRYY) 📊
U.S. 10-Year (US10Y) vs. U.S. Federal Debt Total Public (GFDEBTN) 📊
U.S. 10-Year (US10Y) vs. U.S. Federal Reserve Central Bank Balance Sheet (USCBBS) 📊
U.S. 10-Year (US10Y) vs. U.S. Liabilities & Capital (WRESBAL) 📊
U.S. 10-Year (US10Y) vs. S&P 500 (SPX, SPY) 📊
U.S. 10-Year (US10Y) vs. Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA, DIA) 📊
What is your take on the forward trajectory of interest rates?
Have we officially broken the 40+ year downtrend on structurally low interest rates, given the potential for entrenched inflationary pressures within the U.S. economy?
Or, will rates be forced lower as structural debt obligations of the U.S. are far too great to support the notion of "higher yields for longer"?
Let us know your thoughts in the comments below! 👇🏼
M2SL | Duplex Megaprinter 8000 ™Back in the 80s, we thought that by 2020 we would have an automated oven and flying cars. All we got is a money printer, and we liked it. We played with it a lot. And this year for Christmas, who wouldn't like some more printer ammo?
Since high inflation cannot ensure social stability, we have only one option. Lower inflation. That is the motto of the FED, the hope of every investor, a lower inflation figure. The consumer is overwhelmed from the increasing cost to survive . The inflation war is nowhere near it's end. We have gone from commodity inflation to services inflation, to the everything inflation. We haven't managed to stop it. What if there was another way?
Actually there is another way. If you break the oath of "never read the news" and actually read the news, you will realize that the average consumer is getting the help they need from grants. Governments throughout the world have found the way for social stability. They simply buy us off.
Record high electricity bill? No problem, here is a grant, the government is paying a percentage of the bill as a help.
Expensive fuel? Here are 100€ in fuel discount to go to work.
It is like the best Christmas ever. Businesses get to enjoy 100% of the earnings they want, consumers consume, and governments have social and financial stability. They just have to keep the game going, keep the printer full of ink. Everyone is happy. One could say that this perfect scenario we are in cannot fail. And even if it breaks, we keep the printer rolling.
Sometime in the not-so-distant-future of course, something could break. We have just moved the problem from the consumer to the investor/corporation/government. We have gained some time. It is just incredibly difficult for me to understand what could break if this game goes on and who will take the dive. At what point will this printer stop helping us?
Right now it helps many. Also go out and talk with people, almost nobody talks about inflation as a problem that could completely destabilize the global economy. They just care about the immediate issue, that everything is expensive.
We are humans, and not a very wise kind. We are an infant species (like Dr. Breen said). Even now that we realize what we have created, and try to solve it, we do it in a fashion that will ultimately turn against us. We buy out everyone and everything, we have made humans more dependent. With all that technology around us, I realize that we are incredibly fragile. We haven't managed to be empowered from technology, we are swallowed in it. And we hate the word Plan B, imagine how trapped we are in when we don't cover our bases.
We buy out our problems because we search for the easy way out. That's the reason we made the printer in the first place. We needed to solve one issue, ignoring the future repercussions.
After all that epilogue, I will now add the prologue. This idea is upside down, like everything around us these days.
On the main chart, we see that we have found support on the weekly ribbon.
The 1M (and 2M) chart suggests that we are heavily supported from below.
Do note that dropping oscillator on money supply does not mean significant price drop. Since money supply increases exponentially, a bearish oscillator suggests that we are on the upper side of the trend.
This chart shows us the Reverse Repurchase Aggreements.
We have RSI divergence, and stochastics dont help the situation. RRPONTTLD dropping is signaling QE.
As SPY_Master stated in this idea, this chart shows us the effort the FED does to fight inflation.
Yields show a similar picture. We are under significant resistance from the 200EMA in the 2M chart. Stochastics print a bearish signal.
CURRCIR/M2SL may be printing a bull flag.
What will be the effect if currency-in-circulation increases compared to money supply? How will prices and inflation react? We have already had significant increase in the past year in the ratio.
US money supply is showing signs of increasing, or at least stagnating. This chart comparing US and EU is alarming...
Tread lightly, for this is hallowed ground.

US10Y The 1D MA50 is the key. So far rejected.The U.S. Government Bonds 10YR Yield (US10Y) has gone a long way since our top prediction two months ago and the update 5 days ago (4H time-frame):
Now back to the 1D time-frame, the price has started rising since the December 07 Low, exactly at the bottom (Higher Lows trend-line) of the long-term Channel Up, around the 1D MA100 (green trend-line). So far this is quite similar to the early August rise. The 1D RSI has hit the 1 year Support Zone twice, again as in the last (August 02) Higher Low.
In order to extend selling the US10Y, we ideally need to see the 1D MA200 (orange trend-line) break, which is holding as Support since December 29 2021, and in that case we will target initially the 2.510% (August 02 Low) Support and then the 1W MA100 (red trend-line).
A closing above the 1D MA50 (blue trend-line) though, should restore the long-term bullish trend and will be our buy break-out signal to enter and target the 4.340% (October 21 High) Resistance. So far the 1D MA50 seems to get rejected.

OECD Leading Indicator vs. Market Cycles - Updated 122022 Today's post is inspired by the work of @CMT_Association here on @TradingView, and is designed to give some insight into financial market vs. business cycle timing:
We will be comparing various assets to the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) Composite Leading Indicator (USALOLITONOSTSAM) for the 🇺🇸.
Keep in mind that readings above 100 (green dotted line) suggest economic expansion to come while readings below 100 suggests broader economic weakness, and likely economic recession based on history.
Given the the index is currently trading below 100 , and possibly continuing to fall — what does this mean for the economic outlook going forward, specifically as it compares to S&P 500 (SPY ES1! SPX), DXY (U.S. Dollar), Federal Reserve Fed Funds Rate (FEDFUNDS), 2/10 Yield Curve Inversion (US02Y US10Y), U.S. Inflation Rate YoY (USIRYY), U.S. Unemployment Rate (UNRATE), Crude Oil (CL1! USOIL), Lumber Futures (LBS1!), Gold (GOLD), Silver (SILVER), U.S. Mortgage Rates (USALOLITONOSTSAM), and possible timing of the financial market(s) recovery?
Let's have a look at some of the charts as they highlight that real economic weakness is likely into H1/23', paired with the potential beginning of a financial asset recovery as the business cycle works through its bottoming process.
Chart Key for Composite Leading Indicator (USALOLITONOSTSAM): 📊🗝
Green Dotted Line (Horizontal): >100 = Economic Expansion

What is your takeaway(s) from these charts? 👇🏼
GOLD SHORT TO 1760Self explanatory as all the analysis is on the chart. But market has grabbed liquidity by taking out 1810 highs and peaking at 1822. Since then Gold has crashed back down below 1778, taking out the last low and changing the market structure which now indicates a sell.
Gold is currently sitting at a resistance zone , which I am looking to short from. However, it is possible since its the end of the week, that market might move a little higher towards 1798-1802 for further liquidity at the start of next week before deciding to melt. Let's see how this move plays out! Drop a follow to keep up with the latest updates.

US10Y Critical point, break or hold on the Channel bottom!The U.S. Government Bonds 10YR Yield ( US10Y ) has gone a long way since our top prediction two months ago and the update 20 days ago (4H time-frame):
Now back to the 1D time-frame, the price is exactly at the bottom (Higher Lows trend-line) of the long-term Channel Up, below the 1D MA100 (green trend-line), which is where the last bottom was priced. The 1D RSI has hit the 1 year Support Zone twice, again as in the last (August 02) Higher Low and it remains to be seen if the price reacts with a bounce. So far the move is much weaker than in August.
In order to extend our selling we ideally need to see the 1D MA200 (orange trend-line) break, which is holding as Support since December 29 2021, and in that case we will target initially the 2.510% (August 02 Low) Support and then the 1W MA100 (red trend-line).
A closing above the 1D MA50 (blue trend-line) though, should restore the long-term bullish trend and will be our buy break-out signal to enter and target the 4.340% (OCtober 21 High) Resistance.

Does the yield curve inversion signal recession?The famous negative curve.
This market concept is used when the US02Y or US03Y operate at higher levels than the US10Y, this behavior usually anticipates recessions, but why does this happen?
The inversion of the yield curve distorts the expected functionality of the financial system.
Under "normal" conditions, raising funds in the short term for investment in longer terms is used to provide positive arbitrage between interest rates on liabilities (paid) and assets (received), a strategy subject to the limits of the rollover capacity of the liabilities and raising new funds.
The availability of assets with higher premiums and liquidity, US02Y and US03Y, makes it less attractive to offer funds for longer terms < US10Y, and more expensive to raise funds for those who demand funds for shorter terms.
So the interest curve is considered a kind of thermometer of what lies ahead in an economy, and it is the graphic representation of how much investors are charging to lend money in different maturities, and once it is inverted, it means that it is more expensive to borrow in the short term than in the long term – an unusual thing, because more distant payment dates mean greater risks for the borrower.
In the US economy, a widely documented fact is that yield curve inversion (i.e., when there is a negative differential between long-term versus short-term bond yields) is a good leading indicator of periods of economic contraction. four to six quarters ahead.
According to data available on the Federal Reserve website, yield curve inversion has preceded every US recession since 1950, with the exception of a false signal in 1967.
There is also evidence that indicators of this nature are important predictors of periods of economic contraction in other countries.
But are there any silver linings to this unusual reversal scenario? Yes, in these moments of greater uncertainty we have an interesting opportunity to buy good companies at low prices.
This is because after the monetary tightening cycle, the economy usually weakens, during this period risk assets suffer, considering that their future projections will suffer due to the scenario, so many of the market participants seek security in bonds, others seek to anticipate the recovery considering that as soon as this CORRECTIVE cycle ends, a new UPWARD CYCLE tends to maintain perennial companies and give birth to many new companies that arise in the face of challenging scenarios.
US10Y Time for it to decide the long term trendThe US10Y is approaching the Higher Lows support of the 2022 bullish trend. Holding it can make the price rebound back to the 1D MA50 (blue line) and the dashed line of its growth zone at least.
A break below it and in particular the 1D MA200 (orange line) can turn the trend bearish long term to the 1W MA100 (red line).
The 1D RSI is on its (oversold) Support level as well.
