AUD/USD Forecast: April 2018
The Australian dollar was negative during most of the month of March but is approaching a significant uptrend line that I think will continue to hold this market afloat. Obviously, gold will have its influence as well, but it looks to me as if the 0.77 level is a significant level, based upon the last […]
Bitcoin’s Precarious Slide
As of 1:18 pm ET today (April 1st), Bitcoin is attempting to hold above the upper edge of its downtrending channel, while continuing its slide lower, as shown on the daily chart below. Previous attempts to hold above the channel have failed and the momentum indicator has continued to remain in downtrend in bearish territory well below the zero level. Near-term […]
So What Happens Next? Global Risk Sentiment Could Be ‘Fragile’
There’s no telling how things will play out over the next several trading sessions because over the holiday weekend, the President of the United States literally accused one of the most important companies in America of defrauding the Post Office, said one of the nation’s most important newspapers should be forced to register as a lobbyist, […]

Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies continue their descent. Good Friday has not been good to the digital coins and neither has the weekend (maybe a “lost weekend”) and perhaps it is April’s Fools. BTC/USD is trading around $6,500, the lowest since mid-February when it crashed to $5,858 and rebounded quite quickly. Below this level, we are […]
AUD/USD Analysis – April 1
Latest Price – 76.82c Daily Chart Pattern – AUD/USD’s recent high made a double top which rarely ends trends. So, expect a move above that level. Fibonacci – price down to 76.4% retracement level and the 88.6% angle, a very nice setup for a corrective low if that is to be the case. RSI – […]
6 Reasons To Buy These Energy ETFs And Stocks Now

So, There’s Never, Never A Trace Of Red
Fascinating what one finds out on the internet. For example, I chose Mack the Knife as my weekend market metaphor after taking the photo of shark teeth. Thinking the line “Oh, the shark, babe, has such teeth, dear. And it shows them pearly white,” apropos to the recent market activity, the true meaning of the song blew my mind. The […]
Cryptogeddon – Bitcoin Breaks Below $7,000; Ether Down 75% From Highs
