Trading Summary Notes for Wednesday, 7/25/2018

  • Crypto leader BITCOIN takes a pause after big 'run-up'. Only off slightly
  • BITCOIN upside momentum strong and intact
  • Near term upside target $9,500-$10,000
  • ETHER eases also. ETH not as strong as bitcoin, but firm
  • Near term target for ETH is $500 IF BTC rallies to $9,500-$10,000
  • GOLD coming back into favor. Too many shorts and too much negativity on gold
  • 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
