MARKET THOUGHTS 10/14/22Grab a cup of coffee, wake up and read up lol
** (Not a Financial Advice, just sharing my own opinion and the process I do in the morning before I make a decision to trade.) **
As you guys are all aware the SPY went nuts yesterday, anything is possible in the market these days lol. Once the shorts got squeezed above 354 and FOMO kicked in it ran like it stole something :rofl: .
Now as you get ready for todays play here are things you should consider based on the charts and technical analysis:
- SPY, yesterday, just showed a possible sign of short term reversal from the divergence we've been talking about in the stream the whole week.
- The bounce was larger than expected and larger than usual, when a move like this happens one direction, there's a possible consolidation day the next day or pullback, unless volume continues and breaks above key levels continuing to squeeze the shorts and FOMO continues as well.
- If you are planning to go Gungho on going long, zoom out first and see the trendline on the daily and the pre-market action on SPY and where its at currently (See Chart Posted).
- Break of that trendline upwards can mean retest of the next resistance and probably even retest the next trendline up, but SPY has done its weekly range as of yesterdays candle, so slight chance it will continue breaking to the upside and do another big run. If anything, possible pump then pullback.
- The VIX on the weekly hit that trendline we talked about on the streams this week too causing the downward direction which usually does the opposite of the market, hence the run up yesterday.
** Scenario 1 ** VIX bounces above 9ema on the daily and stays above, market pullback.
** Scenario 2 ** VIX breaks below the 9ema on the daily, it will have about 1-2points max move today. Which can mean a pump in the market and will hit exhaustion, so pump and dump. (See VIX Chart Posted).

Marketanalysis
NZDUSD on a 3-day winning streakThe US will release three high-impact economic indicators during the week's last session, bringing high volatility to USD pairs, particularly against other major FX currencies.
In the morning, the US will announce Retail Sales YoY for September; they are expected to drop from a previous 9.1% to 8%. Retail Sales MoM is also expected to fall; the analyst's consensus is at 0.2%; a figure higher than anticipated will bring higher value to the USD as it suggests that economic activity is solid. However, this week we have seen other indicators show that the US economy might be finally slowing down.
The US will also release Michigan Consumer Sentiment. The expert consensus is a slight increase from 58.6 to 59; a higher-than-expected figure will strengthen the USD exchange rate.
The NZD is gaining ground over the USD; the pair is on a three-day winning streak but continues to be on a general downtrend as the price is trading below the short and long-term moving averages.
The relative strength index is at 38%, which will allow the pair to continue moving upwards before entering an overbought status, a lot will depend on the results of the scheduled high-impact economic indicators, but based on pure technical analysis, the pair is likely to continue climbing.
The Bollinger bands are wide enough to expect high volatility in the short term; still, they are starting to shrink, suggesting that the pair might enter a consolidation period in the medium term. The bands are moving downwards, strengthening the sell signals in the short term.

USDCNH is on a 6-day winning streakThe US will release a series of high-impact economic indicators related to inflation and the labor market during the trading session, which will bring high volatility to major Forex pairs.
The US will release: Consumer Price Index, which is expected to increase from 296.171 to 296.43; a higher figure will be positive for the USD as it suggests high economic activity. They will also release the Inflation Rate YoY, which is expected to drop from 8.3% to 8.1%; higher inflation will be bullish for the USD but will negatively impact the US Stock market.
The US Initial Jobless Claims indicator is expected to increase from 219K to 225K for the first week of October, suggesting that the labor market is finally giving in; however, we have seen surprisingly good numbers for the labor market in recent weeks.
Later in the trading session, China will release the Inflation Rate YoY, which is expected to increase from 2.5% to 2.8%; a higher rate will be positive for the Yuan exchange rate against other currencies.
China will also release the Balance of Trade for September; analysts anticipate an increase from $79.39B to $81B. China is a prominent exporter and has maintained a surplus since 1995; a higher figure than expected will be positive for the Yuan.
USDCNH is on a six-day winning streak; the general trend continues to be upward as the pair is currently trading above the short and long-term moving averages. Our parabolic S A R indicator strengthens the long signals.
The Bollinger bands are still wide and moving upwards, which suggests there will be high volatility and that the pair will continue moving upwards; however, the bands are starting to shrink, which indicates that the pair might enter a consolidation phase in the medium term.
The relative strength index is at 64%, allowing the pair to continue climbing a bit before entering an overbought status. If this happens, there might be a temporary change in the market sentiment.

GBPUSD could test support at $1.0812
The pound is on a four-day losing streak against the USD, and the general trend is downwards once again; the pair is losing the gains it made during the previous weeks. The price trades below the short and long-term moving averages, suggesting that the price could sink further down.
The Bollinger bands are wide, allowing high volatility in the short term; however, the upper band is starting to shrink, suggesting that the price could begin a consolidation phase in the medium term.
The relative strength index is currently at 41%, which will allow the pair to continue falling in the upcoming sessions; we could expect a short-term sentiment change once it gets closer to 30%.
The support level on our 23.6% Fibonacci retracement at $1.0812 could be tested in the upcoming sessions.
Upcoming Events
The UK will release the Unemployment Rate economic indicator in the next trading session; it is expected to remain unchanged at 3.6%; a figure higher than expected will be bearish for the GBPUSD pair as it suggests economic deacceleration.
Later in the day, the UK will also release Claimant Count Change, which gauges the number of people looking for unemployment benefits. Experts anticipate an increase from 6.3K to 10K this month. A higher figure will hurt the British pound against other currencies.
Later in the week, the UK will also release Gross Domestic Product MoM and Goods Tarde Balance, which will significantly impact the GBPUSD exchange rate.

EURUSD +1.70%
The euro is gaining ground against the USD, and it is up 3.95% in the last five trading sessions. The pair is getting close to reaching parity, currently at 0.99831. High-impact economic indicators suggest that the US economy is finally slowing down.
The US released ISM Manufacturing PMI in the previous session; the result came short of expectations, which hurt the USD. This morning the US also announced JOLT Job Openings for August, which came out at 10.053M. Experts anticipated a higher figure by 772K.
The labor market has been solid in the US in the last few months; however, there has been a notable economic deacceleration in the previous few days. This is an important week for the USD as they will announce S&P Global Services PMI and ISM Non-Manufacturing PMI tomorrow, Initial Jobless Claims on Thursday, and Non-Farm Payrolls on Friday. The last two indicators will gauge the strength of the US labor market in the previous month.
Tomorrow, the Euro Area will release S&P Global Services PMI; the previous figure was 49.8, and experts anticipate a drop for September; the analyst consensus is 48.9, which suggests industry contraction, which could benefit the USD.
Later this week, the Euro Area will also release other high-impact economic indicators. Retail Sales MoM are expected to fall from -0.3% to -0.4%, while the Retail Sales YoY are expected to have a steeper decline from -0.9% to -1.7%, likely affecting the EURUSD exchange rate.
The general trend is currently upwards as the price is now above the short and long-term moving averages; the uptrend is likely to continue if the fundamental news releases are unfavorable for the US labor market.
The Bollinger bands are wide and starting to move upwards, suggesting that volatility will continue to be high and that the price will likely move upwards in the short term. The resistance at the parity level will be strong to beat from a psychological point of view.
The relative strength index is at 55%, giving the EUR more than enough space to continue climbing before entering an overbought status. Our parabolic SAR indicator suggests that the price will continue to move upwards.

Tuesday Market Outlook / Nifty Outlook For Reminder of the weekNifty is trying to break free from the bear grip on the basis of Global rebound seen around the indices across the globe. Real bullish break out in true sense will be when Nifty is able to break out and sustain above 17435 on weekly closing basis.
Support for spot Nifty will be at 17026, 16888, 16749 and finally 16461.
Resistance for spot Nifty on the upper side will be at 17270, 17435, 17646 and finally 17910.
AUDUSD + 1.83%AUDUSD + 1.83%
The Aussie strengthens against the USD amid the upcoming Reserve Bank Of Australia Interest Rate Decision. The USD lost ground to most major Forex pairs during the session after high-impact economic indicators suggested that the US economy might be slowing down. US manufacturing data showed weak figures, the US Bond Yields dropped, and the Stock market closed with gains. There is still a negative correlation between the US Stock market and the USD exchange rate.
The US ISM Manufacturing PMI for September came out at 50.9, a worse than expected result by 1.3; the consensus was 52.2. This result shows slower growth in the industry; the figure is still above the 50 level, which indicates industry expansion. The US Federal Reserve could ease on the upcoming interest rate decision as we finally see signs of a slowdown in economic growth.
Australia will release important economic indicators later in the day; the Ai Group Manufacturing Index for September is expected to come out at 48.5; the previous figure was 49.3. If the actual result comes out below 50, the market will see it as an indicator of industry contraction, which will be negative for the AUDUSD exchange rate.
AU will also release Buiding Permits MoM and Home Loans MoM; the consensus for these indicators is 5% and -3.5%, respectively, which is better than the previous month's figures, and a better than expected result will be positive for the Aussie.

NZDUSD -2.15%
The New Zealand Dollar lost the gains it made in the two previous trading sessions against the US dollar. The kiwi gained 1.76% when the US 10-year Treasury Note spiked earlier in the week. After the US released high-impact economic indicators, the NZD lost strength, and the USD is having a solid week against most major currency pairs.
The US released the Personal Spending MoM economic indicator earlier today; the result came out at 0.4%, which is better than the analyst's consensus of 0.2%, strengthening the USD across most major currency pairs. The US also released Personal-Income MoM, and the result came out as experts anticipated at 0.3%, remaining the same as the previous month's figure.
The US Michigan Consumer Sentiment was also released this morning, and the result came out at 58.6, which is short of analysts' expectations of 59.5. The result is worse than expected but slightly better than the previous figure of 58.2. The industry is still within the expansion area as it is above 50, suggesting that economic activity remains elevated.
The Reserve Bank of New Zealand will release an Interest Rate Decision next week; experts agree that the RBNZ will hike the rate by 50 basis points to leave the Interest rate at 3.5%. Annual inflation in New Zealand reached 7.3%, and the RBNZ is expected to continue rising interest rates until inflation drops significantly.

USDCNH -0.92%
The US dollar is losing ground to some currency pairs after the US 10-year treasury Note spiked in the previous trading session. The Chinese Yuan gained 2.44% after reaching a 14-year high yesterday.
The US released Initial Jobless claims this morning, and the result came out at 193K, a better than the expected figure by 22K; analysts anticipated a 215K. The figure is not only better than expected but also better than the previous release, which strengthened the USD against four of the six major currency pairs.
China will release N B S Non-Manufacturing PMI at an early stage of the new trading session. Analysts expect the figure to come out at 52.8, while the previous was 52.6. We could see a minimal improvement, but it is more important that the figure stays above the 50 level, which indicates industry expansion, the release of this economic indicator will create more volatility in the exchange rate of the Chinese Yuan against other currencies, mainly against the USD.
China will also release N B S Manufacturing PMI, which is expected to come out at 49.6 from a previous 49.4. Although we could see the figure improve slightly, if it stays under 50, market participants will interpret it as an industry contraction and are likely to take action.
The USD Index is 17% up this year, and we see very solid numbers in the labor market despite the Fed's efforts to slow down economic growth. It could be hard to beat the dollar this year. Currently, the US stock market negatively correlates with the US dollar.
The pair continues on a general uptrend as the short and long-term moving averages are still below the current price; the pair is retracing, but after the release of high-impact economic indicators, the dollar could resume the rally.
The Bollinger bands are wide and continue moving upwards, suggesting that volatility will continue to be high and that the pair will likely resume the uptrend. Our Parabolic S A R indicator strengthens the long signals.
The relative strength index is recovering from an overbought status, currently at 62%. We could see the pair pull back closer to the support level at 7.061120 before the uptrend resumes.

USDCHF -1.61%
The SwissFranc is gaining ground over the US dollar, but we could see the SwissFranc lose ground after the fundamental news release from the US. They are releasing Initial Jobless claims in tomorrow's trading session; the previous week's figure reached 213K, and analysts expect this week's number to increase to 215K. The US has a very solid labor market that has remained unaffected by the Fed's efforts to slow down economic growth; we have been surprised by the US labor market's numbers in recent months.
Switzerland will release high-impact economic indicators on Friday; they will announce Retail Sales MoM, which is expected to increase from -0.5% to 0.6%, while analysts anticipate Retail Sales YoY to decline slightly from a previous figure of 2.6% to 2% in August, this economic indicator is an excellent way to gauge the economic activity in the country.
Later in the day, Switzerland will also release the K O F Leading Indicators, where the K O F Swiss Economic Insitute gauges business leaders' confidence about the economy's performance and their organization's prospects. This indicator is expected to drop from the previous figure of 86.5; expert consensus is at 84.5.
The US will release indicators on Personal Spending MoM, Personall Incomeme MoM, and Michigan Consumer Sentiment on Friday's trading session. These economic indicators will cause turbulence in the markets as they gauge how much people spend on goods and services, how much they make, and how they perceive the future for their financial situation.
Experts anticipate Personal Spending MoM to increase from 0.1% to 0.2%. Personall Income is expected to grow from 0.2% to 0.3%, and Michigan Consumer Sentiment is also expected to increase from 58.2 to 59.5. This is not very good news for the Federal reserve as they continue intensifying the efforts to restore price stability by hiking rates, which is meant to slow down economic activity.

Some Honesty from a Pro Trader & #StockMarket Technical AnalysisHi all. Scroll down for the market analysis & skip all my anecdotal barf if you so choose! :)
I have been trading a handful of years now, really for the last two full-time, and quite frankly, I'm just wondering how everyone is doing right now?
I'm going to tell you how I'm doing, where I'm at for the year, a brief synopsis of how I arrived here, and then most importantly, where I think we're going.
I'll start by saying, I wish everyone would start pointing at the giant elephant in the room.... the CHARTS. The technical charts.
Those of us who trade using technical analysis have seen these markets rolling over for six months+ now... I am so TIRED of hearing economic pundits, Youtube "traders", "Wall Street betters", you name it, calling out everything BUT the charts! The fed hikes, "so and so got rid of 20% of employees", the whatever whatever report... Regular, working-class people with a 401k need to know the TRUTH. The CHARTS have looked dreadful for months, and when I scrolled my 2000+ something symbols saved here on TradingView today, looking for ANY ticker that had a price resting above ALL moving averages on ALL time frames, suffice it to say, I think I found TWO. So tell me "pundits/youtubers/twitter traders", does it get exhausting having to dole out new excuses every week to explain away another 8% drop here and there for all these companies, searching their product launch failures and which CEO is in a lawsuit from a s*x scandal?
Start calling it like it is and give regular people a chance- the charts all look like death & have for a while now!
So that said, here is where I am at, how I am up this year, my struggles, and what I think of the DOW chart (& the S&P & Nasdaq).
I had a brilliant run from Nov 2020 - May of 2021, like a lot of you, I'm sure. As in, a 20000% gain, in that short eight month period. I am not kidding. Crypto was on a helluva run during that time. I failed to correctly identify the impending BTC drop (and everything else drop), and I lost a LOT. Like, almost everything I made, a lot. Not entirely, but real close. I lost the psychological trading game, in my desperation. I must have had 50 "a-ha" moments in the months that followed. Some new technical revelations. Some old, that I learned way back at the beginning but had forgotten about, all the way back from five years ago at the start of my studying. From Oct 2021 - March of this year, I dug in deep and wrote out what I can only describe as my "Trading Guide to the Galaxy"- a checklist of every single thing I'd ever learned regarding technical analysis, from all of my many mistakes. And then, I began to grind my trading account back up, in the riskiest way possible- Options. I do not recommend this, but it paid off. I hit an Options trade on March 29th, for HOOD, which was the start. Since then, a string of Options plays, grinding back up, slowly. COIN was a pretty solid gain. Yet another on HOOD. LMND. PTON. Little weekly pops here and there, grinding up. I'm up for the year, substantially, and I'm proud of that, but I am realistic- I took WAY more losing trades this year than winning ones. Like, it's probably 10 to 1 losers. Those few good ones erased my losses. That is not a thing I'm "proud" of, because it isn't sustainable. But honestly? Those little pops from options plays (and again, the pickins' were SLIM as hell) are the ONLY thing that has me up. I know I am LUCKY that my "skin of my teeth" strategy paid off this year. Again, I DO NOT recommend it. Sit it out completely, unless you're prepared to lose it all. Which I easily could have. I have carpal tunnel and upped my glasses prescription from the amount of time spent staring at these charts in the last six months.
But now it's time to regroup, and start using everything I've learned in a way that is less risky, so that I can sustain and grow moving forward (aka: regular trades, not *just* options) ...which is what led me to scan over 2000 stock symbols today and want to weep. I am extremely frustrated- I do not want to sit in something for six months just to have it trade sideways. For those of us who have bills to pay, we're trying to make money in ANY market, naturally. So while I'm grateful that at least I'm up this year, I don't want to just stop here.. Surely SOMETHING has to be going up, somewhere, right?? And don't tell me "gold" or "bonds"!! Lol.
VERY few stocks look "bottomed out" to me. And those that do are largely (not always) the ones that don't have a lot of volume in the first place. I am essentially trading inverse fibonacci patterns exclusively right now, searching for fib touches that have hit the extensions multiple times, and where I've seen a long term moving average cross as well. Some things that have caught my eye in the last couple months in this type of play: SQSP, AFRM, LMND, PTON, CZOO.. COIN!
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
One thing I've paid close attention to are the three month candle charts. In two days, we get a new 3 month candle on everything. It's an important one.
Most importantly though, we get a new three month candle on the 3 Indices... and here is my analysis on that>
If you look at the chart for the DOW (& Nasdaq & S&P, but really clearly the DOW), you can see how the DOW essentially pulled a move on a 3 month chart like that of one of the crypto charts had pulled on a weekly chart last year- it had a "blow out" move. A fibonacci "blow out". It's absolutely insane though, because unlike the crypto charts, the bottom fibonacci anchor on the DOW is all the way back in the freakin 1980's. So this means, a DECADES long pattern playing out, that just hit the completion (the 2 extension) last January. Then, we had another solid year of "pump pump pump", hovering above the top, making an irrational high, and now we've begun to topple. Given that the 2 is the top fibonacci extension... what happens now? Well of course, the price usually retraces the ENTIRE MOVE.
Say even for the sake of a cleaner chart, we adjust our lower fib anchor to the 2009 low, a 50% retrace still brings the DOW down to $21.6k, 18k for a 618 retracement. I imagine the S&P & Nasdaq would essentially mirror these retracement moves.
All this to say, this would be the absolute largest retracement the stock market has EVER seen. Again, it's wild to me, because it looks like a weekly XRP or DOGE chart or something from over a year ago- but it's been DECADES in the making. I am SO curious to see what happens. I am not even looking at the war, fed action, gov policy, etc. I am PURELY looking at these charts. Why I typed all this up for you all is because I'm not seeing a whole lot of this. I'm seeing a whole lot of "Doomsday" sounding rhetoric, and I get it, because omg these charts, but it's seldom based on technical analysis, and instead, all this other garbage.
So I'm wondering, for the stocks that I do think are bottomed out (because they're literally hovering above $0), do we see those begin to pump, while everything else trickles down? Likewise for the crypto? I think BTC is going to 12k by the way, but that's another story. I am really wondering what my next move here is. What are you all doing? What does everyone think? Where is everyone's head at given this years trading, and are you up this year? And if so, on what? Surely my balls-to-the-wall option strategy is not the only one (which again, I do not recommend).
I will add: I don't think it would be the worst thing (for traders, that is!), for this market to roll over and for this fibonacci pattern to play out- but some other things HAVE to start moving, and it's freaking me out that nothing else really has been, with the exception of these micro-pops that are quickly erased. Also, I am sure many of you have been shorting, and I know that is an option as well (and I have taken a few shorts), but generally, I like longs- no matter what :) So yeah, here's my analysis/my position/my rant/my musings.
Feel free to throw your input into the mix. I think it'd take an earth-shattering amount of volume to overcome the rollover we see right now, especially in the next two days- so we shall see! Technical indicators alone, it does not look like that is what is going to happen. Happy trading!
AUDUSD -0.38%
The Aussie continues losing ground to the USD; the pair is on a three-day losing streak, and it reached a level we had not seen since May 2020. AUDUSD is down 6.75% in the last eleven trading sessions; we could see the pair sink lower with the release of a high-impact economic indicator from AU later in the day.
Australia will announce the Retail Sales MoM for August in the early stage of the new trading session; we expect a drop from the previous figure of 1.3% in July; experts anticipate a 0.4% for August. The decline in retail sales suggests that the economic activity in AU is falling, which will hurt the Australian dollar exchange rate against other currencies, particularly the US dollar.
The US dollar continues strengthening across most major forex pairs while the S&P 500 fell to a two-year low as investors fear a global recession. The US economic activity is likely to slow down after the Fed hiked the rates; however, it could take some time before we start seeing a significant reduction in inflationary pressures in the US.
The US released a number of economic indicators earlier in the session with a mix of good and bad results; Durable Goods Orders ex Defense MoM came out at -0.9%, while experts anticipated a 0.3%. New Home Sales MoM shocked us with a 28.8% result when analysts expected a -0.5%. Fed chair Jerome Powell expects this figure to drop significantly in the upcoming months after the Fed hiked interest rates 75 basis points to a total of 3.25%.

ALGO/USDT
(Trend Line)
As the name implies, trend lines are levels used in technical analysis that can be drawn along a trend to represent either support or resistance, depending on the direction of the trend. Think of them as the diagonal equivalent of horizontal support and resistance.
Notice how shortly after breaking trend line resistance, the market came back to retest the trend line as new support and formed a bullish pin bar in the process.
This allowed price action traders to buy just before the market rallied for up trend
NASDAQ Index - monthly view
The chart is pretty interesting here, on a monthly view.
During the covid crash in 2020, the total down move was around 32%. Today, in 2022, the correction move from the top is 33.85%, and it already made a nice bounce in June with the bullish engulfing candle.
So, there is a pretty good possibility, that the bottom was already set and we could enter the accumulation phase here. However, in case the current support is lost, we could easily drop to the prices before the covid crash.
AAPL , Advanced Trade Setup - Apple Spread Option AnalysisFor Monday, Aug. 8th
📉 We are looking to position ourselves into Apple (AAPL) for short term DOWNSIDE MOVEMENT.
- We will be most likely Selling Calls to benefit from this position. We would also consider a Bear-Call Spreads, or Bear-Put Spreads.
(These are types of
spread options, sometimes referred to as Vertical Spreads, and Credit/Debit Spreads. If you have never heard of these, they are similar
to options, but lower risk with a set max profit. These differ from traditional Calls & Puts, by not needing to move for them to close
successfully. If we use apple as an example, we are going to do a Bear-Call Spread for $164, with a day expiration. If apple is $164 on
the dot, or less we close the trade with max profit.
- 👨🏼🏫 These Spreads, both the Bear-Put & Bear-Call are placed the same way. You will sell a Put or Call for the lower stock value, and at
the same time buy a Put or Call respectively, for the higher value stock price.) For this route, we are doing a

📋 BREAKDOWN
We feel that AAPL will be peaking and rounding out this weekend. We can see this happening Wednesday-Friday, but we are so confident in this trade succeeding, we will be putting half our position in on Monday.
Apple we think has a high probability to fall a minimum of 4.8% over the next 3 weeks, with it initiating this week.
With September being the worst trading month of the year, we can see this precipitating well longer than the 5 weeks we stated, and going further than our nearly 5 % predicted drop.
