Trading Summary Notes for Tuesday, 7/24/2018

  • Go with the "brand Name", BITCOIN leaps up $500
  • BITCOIN is the crypto market leader
  • Solid institutional buying a huge factor. Bitwise announces plans for ETF
  • Next stop for BITCOIN $9,500-$10,000? Momentum looks good
  • ETHEREUM has a nice 'pick up' but can't match BITCOIN'S strength
  • If bitcoin hits $10,000 ETH should hit $500. BTC better choice
  • GOLD out of favor.......FOR NOW
  • Short interest in gold getting much too large. Be careful
  • Geopolitical events, inflation and currency risks being ignored by gold market. That won’t last and don’t be caught short
  • GOLD......when there are no reasons to buy.........that's when you buy
  • Risk/reward in GOLD………..risking $20 (down to $1,200) to make $200 ($14,000 target

CURRENT TRADING POSITION:

LONG BITCOIN AND GOLD
