Chart Patterns
GOLD POSSIBLE SELLPossible Scenarios:
🔻 Bearish Bias (Primary Scenario)
Price is currently reacting from the 30-min supply zone.
Under the descending trendline, maintaining lower highs.
If rejection confirms, we may see a move down toward the 3310 level, and possibly into the 4H Demand Zone.
Price Levels:
Daily Swing Decision Level: 3365 — Sell below / Buy above level.
Current price: 3336.80, just under this swing level, indicating bearish pressure.
Immediate support: 3310, critical for buyer interest.
Lower support: 3296.62, likely the next demand area if 3310 fails.
Internet Computer (ICP): Getting Ready For Potential Breakout ICP is in the sideways channel, a zone of accumulation, while being at local lows, which is an ideal zone for a buy considering the fact that markets are full of breakouts lately.
We are looking for a full-scale breakout, which then would mean the break of the 200 EMA and movement to upper zones.

"Bitcoin Bullish Reversal Setup with Target Zones (8H Chart)"This 8-hour Bitcoin/USD chart shows a potential bullish setup. Key takeaways include:
Order Block: Identified support zone for possible reversal.
TP1 to TP4: Target points for profit-taking as price moves upward.
Target Zone: Final target area near $123,252.
Expected move: A short-term dip into the order block, followed by a rally toward the target zone.
A New All-Time High Guaranteed for ImmutableX (1,600% PP)IMX produced a strong bullish cycle between December 2022 and March 2024. The entire bullish wave was corrected beyond 100%. This means that IMXUSDT hit a lower low. It went below the starting point of the last bullish wave. This is good in several ways.
The last move being deleted in its entirety opens the doors for a new bullish cycle with unlimited growth potential. We also know that all weak hands have been removed. Anybody who wanted to sell had more than a year to do so with all profits erased from the previous cycle. A total flush, a full reset.
The last bullish cycle produced more than 850%. We now know that this much is do-able so it becomes very easy. Last time market conditions were mixed to say the least, but not extremely bullish nor the best possible.
If IMXUSDT can grew this much in a mixed market, how much can it grow in a favorable market, in a bull market?
So, we aim for a strong higher high, a new all-time high. This opens up $5.9 an $9.3 as target for this newly developing bullish phase.
Thank you for reading.
Namaste.
Market Volatile Amid Geopolitical Tensions & Fed Rumors Gold 17/07 – Market Volatile Amid Geopolitical Tensions & Fed Rumors
🌍 Macro Sentiment: Uncertainty Continues
The global gold market opened Thursday with high volatility following headlines that former U.S. President Donald Trump was considering firing Fed Chair Jerome Powell. Though Trump later denied the claim, the initial rumor spiked fear in financial markets.
At the same time:
🇮🇱 Israel launched airstrikes on Syria, escalating regional tensions.
🇪🇺 The EU proposed new tariffs on U.S. imports, increasing global economic friction.
🏦 Inflation concerns persist as BlackRock warns about delayed price pressures from earlier tariff hikes.
📉 These factors have turned gold into a temporary safe haven, but investors should remain cautious as the market is still undecided about direction.
🔎 Technical Outlook – Key Patterns to Watch
The H1 chart reveals price action respecting a wide consolidation range with visible liquidity sweeps on both ends. The market is forming a clean structure of lower highs, hinting at bearish bias unless bulls reclaim upper resistance zones.
Sell-side liquidity has been swept around the 3,320 level.
Order Block Sell Zone remains active at 3,342 – 3,344, potentially leading to a short-term drop.
If price breaks above 3,357 – 3,363 (VPOC & OB zone), a new bullish leg may form.
🎯 Trade Plan for Today
🟩 Buy Opportunity Zone
Entry: 3,312 – 3,310
Stop Loss: 3,306
Take Profits:
→ 3,316 → 3,320 → 3,324 → 3,328 → 3,335 → 3,340 → 3,350
📌 This zone has shown strong demand historically. Look for bullish candle confirmation on the lower timeframe (M15–H1).
🟥 Sell Opportunity Zone
Entry: 3,362 – 3,364
Stop Loss: 3,368
Take Profits:
→ 3,358 → 3,354 → 3,350 → 3,345 → 3,340
📌 This area overlaps with a VPOC level and prior order block – watch for price rejection patterns (e.g., bearish engulfing, fake breakouts).
⚠️ Risk Note
With geopolitical and monetary policy headlines dominating sentiment, price may spike erratically. Avoid overleveraging and always respect your SL/TP.
💬 What’s Your Take?
Do you think gold will break below 3,300 and head toward deeper FVG zones?
Or will bulls regain control and aim for 3,377 liquidity?

U.S. NATURAL GAS - BEARISH DIVERGENCE DETECTED
U.S. NATURAL GAS - BEARISH DIVERGENCE DETECTED🕵🏻♂️
The Natural gas has been trading bullish for 7 days in a row since last Wednesday, reaching the 3.6000 resistance level. Primarily this happened due to a warm weather in the U.S. states, that supports the demand on gas. Despite warmer-than-normal summer weather, analysts expect energy firms to inject more gas into storage than usual in coming weeks. Record-high output in June, likely to be surpassed in July, and reduced gas flows to LNG export plants since April's peak, support this trend.
Technically chart shows us a bearish divergence on 1-h timeframe. I suppose the price to slowly decline towards major support level of 3.0000 with minor rebounds. The 2nd option is the rebound from 3.4000 support level with a first target of 3.6000.
Cardano: Still Boring or Finally Ready to Move?🧐🔁 Cardano: Still Boring or Finally Ready to Move? 🚦📈
Welcome to the Altcoin Series, kicking off this weekend with none other than Cardano (ADA).
Later on I will explain why i will be 'Divorcing Alts' and just trade them, but that time will be at the cycle end, not now.
It’s Saturday, July 12th — a classic retail weekend after a solid macro pump. Salaries are hitting accounts, the charts are alive again, and it's time to look at structure over sentiment.
🔍 A Personal Note on ADA
I was fortunate to exit near the top during the Cardano Summit in Athens (2021) — not just due to chart structure, but after meeting with developers and understanding how deeply Haskell shapes this ecosystem. And what a challenge that seemed!
Haskell, while academically impressive, has proven difficult to scale, and in practice, it's slowed down development. Expectations were sky-high, but reality hit hard. And let’s be honest — Cardano has been boring for years.
But that boredom may be hiding something...
I’ve still been 'going Long' under key levels, because when you zoom out — Cardano is still U.S.-centric , regulation-aware, and deeply rooted . In a time when the U.S. might look to lead crypto adoption, especially with figures like Trump signaling support , Cardano could become part of that narrative.
⚙️ Technical Setup
The recent pump from Nov–Dec 2024 was rejected right at $1.193 — our second test of that critical resistance. But now, we’re staring down a potential third test, with Test #3 marked on the chart near $1.15, and this time, the context is shifting.
✅ TOTAL3 structure is bullish
✅ Retail energy is back
✅ Altcoin momentum is quietly building
🔑 Key Levels
Support Zone:
🟢 $0.70–$0.71 — the current base to hold
Target Zones:
🔹 $1.15–$1.19 — Third test of resistance
🔹 $1.47
🔹 $1.89
🔹 $3.02
🔹 Top Extension Target: $3.65
A break above that descending level could turn this "boring" coin into one of the cleanest long continuation setups of the cycle.
📌 We trade technicals, not hope:
✅ Buy over support
✅ Exit under resistance
✅ Control risk, always
So… will Cardano keep boring us? Or is it finally time for a show?

PepsiCo (PEP) Stock Rallies 7.4% Following Earnings ReportPepsiCo (PEP) Stock Rallies 7.4% Following Earnings Report – What Comes Next?
Yesterday, PepsiCo Inc. (PEP) released its quarterly earnings report, which significantly exceeded market expectations:
→ Earnings per share (EPS) came in at $2.12, surpassing the forecast of $2.02.
→ Gross revenue reached $22.7 billion, above the projected $22.3 billion.
In addition, PepsiCo reaffirmed its full-year guidance: the company expects earnings per share to remain virtually unchanged compared to the previous year, while organic revenue is anticipated to grow by a few percentage points.
Executives also outlined development plans for their brand portfolio, emphasising a focus on the growing demand for healthier snacks and a strategic initiative to reduce costs.
These factors contributed to PepsiCo Inc. (PEP) becoming one of the top-performing stocks on the market yesterday – its price surged by 7.4%, reflecting strong investor sentiment. What could come next?
Technical Analysis of PEP Stock Chart
A strong bullish candle formed on the chart yesterday, signalling a spike in demand:
→ The session opened with an impressive bullish gap, decisively breaking through the July resistance level around $137.
→ The share price continued to climb steadily throughout the day, forming a long-bodied candle.
→ The session closed near its high, confirming sustained upward momentum.
Notably, on 27 June (highlighted by an arrow on the chart), the stock posted gains on the highest trading volume of 2025 so far (according to Nasdaq data), which can be interpreted as a potential sign of sentiment reversal driven by institutional investors.
However, the broader picture remains bearish. PEP stock continues to trade within a long-term downward channel, shaped by declining demand for PepsiCo products and intensifying market competition.
Given the above, the following scenario should not be ruled out: the upper boundary of the long-term descending channel may act as resistance in the near term. As the post-earnings euphoria fades, the price could undergo a pullback – for instance, towards the $140 level, which previously served as support.
At the same time, the strong fundamental backdrop, reflecting the company’s operational success, could fuel persistent bullish interest. This may empower buyers to challenge and potentially break the long-standing downtrend in PEP shares.

US Dollar Index (DXY) Chart AnalysisUS Dollar Index (DXY) Chart Analysis
The addition of the US Dollar Index (DXY) to FXOpen’s suite of instruments offers traders potential opportunities. This financial instrument:
→ serves as a measure of the overall strength of the US dollar;
→ is not tied to a single currency pair but reflects the value of the USD against a basket of six major global currencies, including the EUR, JPY, and GBP;
→ allows traders to capitalise on price fluctuations in the currency market;
→ is used in more advanced strategies for hedging risks in portfolios sensitive to sharp movements in the US dollar.
In today’s environment of heightened volatility, this instrument becomes particularly valuable. The active stance of US President Donald Trump — through the implementation of trade tariffs, sanctions, and unpredictable geopolitical rhetoric — gives traders even more reason to closely monitor the DXY chart.
Technical Analysis of the DXY Chart
Moving averages show that the US Dollar Index displayed a predominantly bearish trend during the first half of 2025.
However, the picture shifted in July: the index began rising steadily (already up approximately +1.9% since the beginning of the month), highlighted by the blue ascending trend channel.
This suggests that the DXY may have found support following a prolonged decline, and a shift in market sentiment could be underway: after a bearish phase, a period of consolidation may follow. If this scenario plays out, we could see DXY oscillating between the 97.65 and 99.30 levels – both of which show signs of acting as support and resistance (as indicated by the arrows).

The Correction Is Over! Bull FlagThe bull flag is a popular pattern. Everybody who has seen a chart is familiar with this pattern. It is a continuation pattern.
When I say that the correction is over I am not talking about the short short-term, I am talking about the bigger picture.
Yes, bullish action is expected to start and intensify within weeks, no!, days. But still, with thousands of projects, it takes lots of time before energy (money) reaches all sectors of the market. Allow for strong variations but the correction is over which means growth.
The correction is over means that the low is already in for most pairs and will be in, in the coming days for all remaining pairs.
The correction is over means that everything will grow, just as it did after the 7-April bottom low. The difference is that this new wave will be many times bigger and stronger than before.
TOTAL2 produced an advance from early April until late May. The retrace produced a bull flag continuation pattern. The pattern has run its course, it will resolve with a new phase of growth. It won't take long. It will be obvious in a matter of days. No need to pray, Crypto is going up.
Namaste.
AVAX is Back: Subnets, Upgrades, and Institutional Momentum🚀🧠 AVAX: Subnets, Upgrades, and Institutional Momentum 🔧🏛️
Avalanche (AVAX ) is starting to shape up again — not just on the chart, but at the infrastructure and institutional level too.
As part of the Altcoin Series, I continue to trade these setups while preparing for a time when I’ll divorce alts emotionally and treat them for what they are — assets to be traded, not worshipped.
But right now? This one looks strong.
📊 Chart Breakdown
Left side: Macro chart (8H)
✅ We've just completed a successful third touch of structural support — you can see the 1–2–3 test boxed below the $18.64 level
📍 That’s usually where conviction builds, and reversals are born
🚀 A massive breakout confirmation comes if we close above $22.97 — the level to watch
🧱 Above that, the path opens toward higher fib levels: $27.65 → $35.13 → $43.63 and beyond
Right side: Micro structure (30-min chart)
🔍 A descending wedge or coil forming — typical of consolidation before breakout
This price action is tightening into a decision point, right around $20.80–$21
I expect a breakout soon, with a push toward the macro trigger at $22.97
🧩 What’s New with AVAX?
Avalanche 9000 Upgrade is Live
Major performance overhaul: cheaper subnets, faster deployment
Subnets now act more like sovereign L1s, enhancing utility across the board
Developer cost dropped by over 99%, inviting serious builders
DeFi, Real-World Assets & Ecosystem Growth
TVL > $5B
VanEck’s $100M Treasury Fund now tokenized on Avalanche
Over 515M transactions per month
Real-world integrations with Alipay, California DMV, and more
Enterprise Expansion
FIFA subnet launch (NFTs, tickets, collectibles)
Institutional panels at Avalanche Summit London
Avalanche’s vision: a custom chain for every institution
Retro9000 Grant Program
$40M set aside to fuel L1 growth via subnets
Analysts expect 300% subnet growth by Q4 2025
🧠 The Mindset: Trade, Not Worship
AVAX is a great example of why I'm preparing to divorce altcoins at the cycle top.
It’s gone from hype to silence... and now to real infrastructure momentum.
So yes — I’m bullish.
But I’m not here for belief — I’m here for the structure.
✅ Buy over support
✅ Breakout over $22.97
🛑 Stop-loss if structure fails
🎯 Targets: $27.65 → $35.13 → $43.63+
🏁 Final Word
Avalanche is rebuilding — on-chain, in the real world, and on the chart.
It has subnets, speed, and now institutional backing.
Let’s trade it smart.
Let’s trade it without emotions, do your risk management and don't listen to me.

CHFJPY: It's getting the value of a toilet paperCHFJPY: It's getting the value of a toilet paper
The all-time high for CHFJPY was reached on July 10, 2024 and has been moving lower ever since.
However, over the past month for no apparent reason, CHFJPY broke above the top of this area, reaching a new all-time high for the time being at 186, pushing the price up by almost +600 pips above the previous high.
The only reason is that the SNB continues to manipulate the Forex market by keeping the CHF stronger for no reason. The big trade has to fall and it will fall one day, but it definitely won’t fall unless the SNB stops this crazy manipulation.
All eyes are on the SNB to change its monetary policy approach and also on the BOJ to stop manipulating the yen’s weakness because they want to increase their exports. So both banks are playing a dirty game and it is unclear when the downtrend might start, but even the bullish move is highly overvalued. It is very dangerous both ways.
However, the big trade must fall as it is becoming like toilet paper.
You may find more details in the chart!
Thank you and Good Luck!

Pudgy Penguins (PENGU): We Might Go For Correction | Be CarefulPengu has had a good rally to upper zones, where we are almost near ATH, but this upward movement left behind 2 big bearish CME gaps, which we might be filling if we see one proper MSB to form.
So that's what we are looking for, a proper MSB, which would give us a good opportunity for short here!

XUA/USD) Bearish Analysis Read The captionSMC trading point update
Technical analysis of XAU/USD (Gold vs USD) on the 1-hour timeframe. Here's a breakdown
Technical Analysis Summary
1. Descending Channel:
The price is moving within a clear descending channel, indicating a bearish market structure.
Recent price action rejected the upper boundary of the channel, strengthening the downtrend bias.
2. Resistance Rejection:
A key resistance level around 3,340–3,345 was retested (marked with a red arrow) and rejected.
Price has already shown early bearish candles post-rejection, suggesting weakness at that level.
3. 200 EMA (Exponential Moving Average):
Price is currently hovering around the 200 EMA, and a clean break below it could accelerate the bearish move.
4. RSI Indicator:
RSI is around 46, below neutral 50, showing bearish momentum is building but not yet oversold.
No divergence is present, supporting the idea of continuation.
---
Bearish Playbook
Entry Idea: After the rejection at the resistance zone and confirmation of lower highs.
Target: 3,313 – 3,310 zone (marked as the “key support level” and “target point”).
Risk Management: A stop loss above 3,345 (above the resistance zone) would be a prudent protection level.
---
Confluences Supporting the Short Setup:
Rejection at horizontal resistance.
Alignment with the descending trendline/channel.
Price trading near or below the 200 EMA.
RSI slightly bearish.
Caution:
Watch out for any macroeconomic news or high-impact events (highlighted with the economic event icons) that could inject volatility.
A strong break back above the resistance could invalidate this bearish setup.
Mr SMC Trading point
Conclusion:
This setup anticipates a bearish continuation targeting the 3,310 support zone. Ideal for short-term traders looking for downside opportunities, provided price respects the trend and fails to reclaim the resistance.

Possible correction toward a 112,600$📥 On the lower timeframes, a head and shoulders pattern has formed, which could trigger selling pressure down to the 112,600 level in the short term. This correction on the lower timeframes might also cause a minor pullback in the altcoin market, potentially creating a good buying opportunity
