CME CF Bitcoin Reference Rate & CME CF Bitcoin Real Time Index CME ETH_RR_USD Ethereum Reference Rate & CME ETH_RTI_USD Ethereum Real Time IndexTrading Summary Notes for Friday, 8/17/2018
- Next week brings a SEC decision on a couple BITCOIN ETFs. That's probably why the firmness
- ETH tags along. Trades just over $300 in late trade
- A positive SEC decision should give BITCOIN a big "pop" to the upside. A no vote......big selloff
- CRYPTO PANIC NOT OVER YET! BITCOIN could break down under $6,000 in a panic. Target $4,500-$5,000
- GOLD holding $1,175-$1,180 so far
- The dollar is holding GOLD as a hostage. Dollar’s strength just kicking GOLD’S butt
- Inflation being totally overlooked.....for now.
- Long term bullish on BITCOIN and GOLD. Neutral on ETH.
CURRENT TRADING POSITION:
LONG GOLD
