Gold Daily Chart:
Price appears to have failed out this week- trying to break through the 2700 level. Price continues to range here.

On the fundamentals side - inflation in the US showed signs of rising this week, causing yields and the dollar to strengthen.

This is usually a bearish catalyst for gold, which may have to wait longer than expected for more rate cuts next year...

Gold remains mixed for me. Waiting for a more clear directional push + some dollar weakness if we possibly see a dovish fed meeting next week.

USOIL Daily Chart:

Price continues to range here, without a clear directional bias on the daily.

Note: buyers should watch for a break of 73, and sellers should watch for a break of 67. These could be key levels going into the new year...

Fundamentally, there's a bit of uncertainty. On one hand, you have tariff concerns and willingness to pump oil aggressively from the Republican party.

At the same time however, you have geopolitical risks as well as the possibility of a reacceleration from China with their financial stimulus objectives.

I personally lean a bit bearish, however price action keeps me from taking any trades.

Though this may not be as exciting as a clean bullish setup on gold, it is very important to still take time to mark up charts like this - to know what changes to look for prior to taking setups!

Have a great week ahead guys. - Nick

Come join us in the Stocks & Options channel if you are interested. Watching $ADBE 👀

$ADBE Weekly Chart:

Price pulling back into a long term support level, and nearing an oversold point on the 7 period RSI.

Watching for a possible entry, if we see a pullback in the Nasdaq as well.

Bitcoin is getting closer to my $110,000 price target which is where I said could be a major decision point. This because the crypto will either reject off a 7 year trend line as it has always done, or it will break above and confirm new uncharted territory. This sudden rise today could be in line with the fears of stagflation next year as inflation stays elevated and jobs data weakens.

Sentiment is looking very interesting right now for forex traders.

Everyone seems to be shorting the rally in the USD...

This has not been working very well for them... do you think retail will continue holding the bag on the USD push?

Does this chart make anyone else nervous?

This is the Chinese 10 YR yield chart, and it is signaling some concerning outlook for the Chinese economy.

This keeps me a little hesitant on getting overly bullish on oil and other industrial commodities for now...

Just to elaborate...

When yields fall, it often signals that investors are more cautious about the economy. They might be seeking the safety of government bonds, which are perceived as low-risk investments, leading to an increase in bond prices and a decrease in yields. This can indicate expectations of slower economic growth or even a looming recession. For instance, declining yields have been associated with investor wariness or a flight to safety during times of economic uncertainty.

Falling yields can be a response to or anticipation of monetary policy easing by the central bank, such as lowering the policy rate. This action is generally taken to stimulate economic activity by making borrowing cheaper. A decrease in yields might suggest that the central bank could cut rates further to support economic growth. However, if yields fall too low, it might also reflect expectations of prolonged low inflation or deflationary pressures

- Nick

Retail sentiment shows there is a bullish bias for DOW, gold, RUSSELL, USOil and Silver. The neutral camp has NASDAQ, S&P and NIKKEI. The crowd is also bullish Bitcoin which could suggest a reversal coming soon.
