2/ Vix closed at 13.5 today.
The VIX, or Volatility Index, is a measure of expected price fluctuations in the S&P 500 Index options over the next 30 days.
It is often referred to as the "fear index" or "fear gauge" because it represents the market's expectation of volatility.

The first official Knowledge Drop. $GME reported earnings last night and is up over 50% this morning. A short float of 24% (as reported by #Ortex) might have something to do with that. Breakdown in slide, follow me for weekly Knowledge Drops!

Indeks dolara na wykresie tygodniowym wyrysował dwie zielone świece, ale długoterminowa tendencja wciąż jest spadkowa. Jak na razie należy te wzrosty traktować jako korektę. Dopiero pokonanie okolic 108 zaneguje scenariusz spadkowy.
2/n
2/n
Na wykresie dziennym zatrzymaliśmy się idealnie na wyznaczonym oporze 103.70. Kolejny silny opór to okolice 105 - bardzo prawdopodobne miejsce końca korekty. Najbliższe wsparcia to okolice 102, potem 100.

@crypto_gateway @GatewayMeme @CryptoMeme_Ita @MemeingBitcoin @AFTSDCrypto @hardrockcrypto @MarcheseCrypto @TradingonIt @BitCryptoRepost @financialjuice 2/ Prima di cominciare è molto interessante l'intervento di ieri di Bostic della FED:
"Se necessario si potrà rivalutare la possibilità di tornare ad almeno un rialzo di 50 bps."
"Se necessario si potrà rivalutare la possibilità di tornare ad almeno un rialzo di 50 bps."
The regular flat grid chart is misleading to retail. The big money uses diamonds. It works on any minute chart and on a daily as well. that is how they communicate/coordinate beating retail. I discovered this 3 -4 month ago and it never fails.
The fight is now on the downward channel the bulls wanted to stop the cycle of down trends pushing it artificially higher to prevent $300. A downtrend channel is inevitable but what channel is the important question. because the next bottom moves higher.

Let's start with JPOW & Interest Rates
Currently, Fed has been raising interest rates to battle inflation which puts downward pressure on the #StockMarket
So if Fed keeps raising rates, it's #bearish for #stocks & #crypto.

We are in a #BearMarket and this recent rally has sparked a lot of enthusiasm from #investors and #traders.

Zaczynamy od indeksu dolara, który cały czas znajduje się w trendzie spadkowym. Aktualnie kurs zatrzymał się na bardzo silnym wsparciu w rejonie 101.5. Tygodniowa świeca ma wydłużony dolny cień, ale nie na tyle długi, aby miała charakter pro wzrostowy. Jest raczej neutralna.
2/n
2/n
Na wykresie dziennym mamy silną tendencję spadkową - sekwencja coraz niższych szczytów. Na razie ciężko mówić o zmianie trendu. Najpierw musielibyśmy pokonać opór na 103.5, a potem ostatni szczyt na 105.50. Do tego momentu ewentualne wzrosty byłyby korektą.

"Last Friday it managed - just like the $DJT and $IWM - to make a solid upward breakout... did so on high volume... close above the 20, 50, 100 and 200DMA.

" #DJT made an excellent breakout and closed above 20 and 100DMA. It closed right at its 50DMA. Bullish action from a leading indicator. $DJT will have to surpass the conjunction of 50DMA and 200DMA next week, in order to validate more upward moves"

For 2023, pundits all reading off same menu:
- Fed gonna crush every rally until job market cracks + EPS going to fall in ‘23
- consensus thus, stocks fall in first half to 3,000 (S&P 500) and then maybe stocks recover to “flat” by YE

Several issues with this consensus view:
- stocks rarely “flat” after a year (11% instances) and far more likely to rise >20% (53% of time)
- volatility matters more than EPS = Fed is key
- we see roadmap for volatility to sink sharply in 2023, already happened with bonds

1st Week of 2023 - went opposite to what I expected. Oil had a correction while bonds got bought in size, stocks were mostly flat, caught a bid on Friday:

A low #CPI triggered a 114-point jump that took it above the dominant trendline. At the open, sell orders above that level initiated a pullback that took it 126 points down to the 20DMA
