Trading Summary Notes for Wednesday, 8/8/2018

  • SOLD BITCOIN TRADING POSITION AT $6,490 ON A STOP ORDER
  • Is this the beginning of a crypto selling panic? Capitulation in BITCOIN and ETH?
  • BITCOIN heading to $4,000? ETH to $200-$250? Watch out below
  • Selling climax would be a tremendous buying opportunity. Panic at the top ($20,000) and a panic at the bottom (?).
  • GOLD picks up flight to quality buying
  • GOLD holding to the $1.205 -$1,210 area. Out of cryptos and into GOLD?
  • Long term bullish on BITCOIN and GOLD. Neutral on ETH. Hard to be bullish and long in weak markets.
  • Panic selling will bring in tons of negative new coverage. Get ready to be a BTC and ETH buyer

CURRENT TRADING POSITION:

LONG GOLD
