XAGUSD
This XAGUSD is really worrying me. It dropped hard earlier, and the volume seems to be following the price down, which feels bad. I thought maybe the news about Iran would push it up, but it's just be...
XAGUSD
@pbaloyi84 Honestly, I hope you're right about Monday but this geopolitical stuff has me on edge. I'm already seeing red on my XAGUSD trade so I'm just hoping for a break.
XAGUSD
@harry2003 I know that feeling! It's super confusing when it bounces like that. I'm also nervous about my position. Maybe we should wait and see if it finds some support soon? Selling now feels like a...
USDJPY
It's like they say, you can't win them all. Sometimes you just gotta trust the process, even when it feels like the market is actively trying to mess with you. Patience is key, I guess. Just gotta kee...
USDJPY
Hey @michaelsmith54, I feel you man. This USDJPY is making no sense right now. I'm also a bit worried I jumped in too early. It's been moving sideways for ages and I'm starting to get that sinking fee...
USDJPY
This sideways action reminds me of that time last year when USDJPY just crawled sideways for weeks before that big move up. Feels similar, but also a bit different.
BTCUSD
Just saw that news about the SEC looking into 'safe harbor' exemptions for crypto. That's interesting. Wonder if that could actually lead to some clearer rules for BTC and other coins down the line, o...
BTCUSD
@amitchell377 Yeah, I saw a similar video too! It's easy to get caught up in the daily moves but you gotta zoom out. If the weekly RSI is still high, that definitely makes me nervous about jumping in ...
BTCUSD
@GoldenEagle71 Absolutely. Respecting the RSI is key, especially on a volatile asset like BTC. I made the mistake of chasing a move when RSI was way up and it just bit me. I'm sitting on the sidelines...
XAUUSD
Right, so gold's hanging around 5171 over the weekend. RSI looks kinda bullish but that 200 SMA at 5192 is looming. Thinking of setting some buy orders just below 5160 in case it dips a bit Monday mor...
XAUUSD
@jackbaker31 Sorry mate, I only trade gold, XAUUSD. But consolidation around a level is always interesting, isn't it? I'd be cautious about shorting without confirmation though, could easily get swept...
XAUUSD
@christopherbrown34 RSI at 35 is definitely something to watch on XAUUSD. I'm always a bit wary of relying on RSI alone though, especially with gold. It can stay oversold for ages sometimes, or just k...
ETHUSD
Right, still watching my ETH short from 1960. It's creeping down but this chop is making me nervous. Moved my stop loss to 1970 just to protect some profits. Hope it keeps going down, but with all thi...
ETHUSD
@BrandonTaylor77, hi Brandon, I'm no expert but I think you're right to be cautious. When the price is below the SMAs, it often suggests a downtrend, but it's not a guarantee, is it? I've been burned ...
ETHUSD
aaand stop loss hit. -10 pips. sigh. should have waited for confirmation. live and learn i guess.
XAUUSD
Ugh, weekends are the worst. All this gold talk and nowhere to trade it! Anyone else just staring at charts waiting for Monday morning? I'm thinking of trying a covered call strategy next week, but st...
XAUUSD
@chiAndres34 Yeah, that 50 SMA holding around 4940 was pretty key, wasn't it? I was watching that too. I'm still pretty new to this, but it seemed like a good sign. 5000 does seem like a big hurdle th...
XAUUSD
To be honest @MoonRise38, I'm seeing mixed signals too! It's above 5100 now, which is great, but that RSI is looking pretty high. I'm thinking it *might* break 5150, but I'm also worried about a pullb...
XAUUSD
Thinking about a covered call on XAUUSD. The 50 SMA is just above at 4938-ish, so maybe sell a call option around that strike price. Collect some premium and if it goes above, I'm okay with selling at...
XAUUSD
Update: Looking at the Bollinger Bands, the upper band is around 4946. That's even closer to the 50 SMA. Maybe a slightly higher strike price would be safer? Still a beginner at this, so any input is ...
