QLC technical analysis

QLC seen from the temporality of 1W we can see how the price has started to fall once reached the resistance located at 0.00000235, the current candle has found demand in the support located at 0.00000190, indicated in the graph by the first horizontal red color, however, the price should fall to the next zone of demand located at 0.00000114, if the price is able to close the above mentioned resistance forcefully, the price could have a larger bullish momentum that should reach our first target located within the price range of 0.00000374 – 0.00000461.

QLC seen from the temporality of 1D we can observe more closely the current movement of candles, we see that the price has formed two HL after the double floor formed on the diagonal support indicated on the chart by the diagonal dark blue, this is a good bullish signal, however, as long as the price does not manage to overcome the resistance located at 0.00000235 indicated in the chart above by the horizontal black color, the price should continue to fall towards the support diagonally forming a reversal pattern of SHS that would strengthen the strength of the bears inclining the price to the area of demand located at 0.00000114, even to the lower diagonal support that I have indicated in the chart above by a yellow circle, in the chart I have also drawn the possible trajectory that could still follow the price before breaking the resistance of this accumulation range.

In conclusion, QLC is in a moment of high uncertainty, because the follow up of the bullish momentum is respecting the 0.00000190 and this suggests that there could be a continuation bullish, however, the price must also make a next touch diagonally and this approach would increase the odds of a larger reversal, therefore, I recommend to follow closely the action of the price in 1D and always place stop loss in your trades to avoid possible invalidations during the move.

As I always say, you have to be aware of the movement, invalidations can occur, there is no 100% reliable analysis, take your own precautions when trading.

The ETF, MSCI Is A Longer Term Sell

The U.S.-China trade war will cut 2019 global growth to its slowest pace since the 2008-2009 financial crisis, the International Monetary Fund warned on Tuesday, adding that the outlook could darken considerably if trade tensions remain unresolved.

Earlier this week, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) said its latest projections for the world economy show 2019 GDP growth at 3.0%, down from 3.2% in a July forecast.  The main culprit was the US-China trade war which is expected to cut 2019 global growth to its slowest pace since the Great Recession. 

Although, the US and China reached a phase I trade deal last week, the IMF stated if deal isn’t reached in the near future, the slowdown in the world economy could worsen, case in point….China.

China’s growth outlook for the remainder of the year and into 2020 is expected to weaken further because of obstacles including drag from the ongoing trade war with the United States, analysts said.

The next mile marker in China’s economic slowdown will come on Friday, when the country reports third quarter growth. Analysts expect it to slow to 6.1 per cent from the 6.2 per cent rate seen in the second quarter, which was the lowest growth rate since the government started publishing quarterly gross domestic product (GDP) statistics in the first quarter of 1992.

But analysts are rapidly revising down their expectations for 2020 below the lower end of this year’s growth range. Most forecasts put next year’s growth between 5.5 per cent and 5.9 per cent, with the International Monetary Fund’s just-released projection at 5.8 per cent.

The MSCI Emerging Markets Index stands for Morgan Stanley Capital International (MSCI) and is an index used to measure equity market performance in global emerging markets.   The MSCI ETF that tracks this index is heavily exposed to China.  So where is price of the MSCI ETF headed, lets go to the charts?

Monthly Chart (Curve Time Frame) – monthly demand is at $120.

Weekly Chart (Trend Time Frame) – the trend is still up, but momentum appears to be stalling.

Daily Chart (Entry Time Frame) – the chart suggests once the support breaks, to look for shorts to the down side with a first target at the weekly demand at $172.

This post is my personal opinion. I’m not a financial advisor, this isn’t financial advise. Do your own research before making investment decisions.

What Stock Sectors are the Smart (Big) Money Investing In?

There is a saying to follow the smart money. With the performance of hedge funds over the past decade relative to the S&P 500 some may think that isn’t the smart money.

I’m smart enough to know they are still worth paying attention to because the sheer size of the positions they put on impact individual stocks and sectors.

Bank of America Merrill Lynch Fund Manager Survey

This survey gives us insight into what hedge fund managers are investing in, the latest survey showed money moving toward utilities, consumer staples and healthcare and out of energy and materials.

In addition to the movement within stock sectors there was an increase in bond holdings and a reduction in stock holdings.

This is what I recall from my view of the report which is proprietary/subscriber based.

VIA technical analysis

VIA seen from the temporality of 1W we can see how the current candle structure is forming a rounded floor which is likely to push the price towards a much larger bullish movement, the penultimate candle managed to close above the consolidation, followed by a doji candle, the current candle is bullish, however, with little volume, the pressure of sale is maintained, we can observe it in the superior wick that has formed until the moment, the indicator RSI has formed us a double floor with bullish inclination, this shows us a bullish divergence that is easily visible in the graph of above, the weekly demand is located in the 0.00002050.

VIA seen from the temporality of 1D we can observe more closely the current movement of candles, we see how the structure is forming a rounded floor, in the RSI indicator I have pointed with an oval the area where the average in relation to the period of time between December 2018 and March 2019 made a movement similar to the one that the RSI indicator is making again in relation to the current period, If the situation repeats itself we could have a major upward movement like the one that happened previously and that I have indicated by means of a yellow circle in the RSI indicator, our first gain objective is located at 0. 00007567, if we have a strong volume input, this target can be easily reached, the second gain target is located at 0.00017044.

In conclusion, VIA maintains an excellent bullish pattern after consolidating in the weekly support located at 0.00002050, if the price maintains the bullish curvature, the probabilities of reaching the first profit target are very high, otherwise, the price could fall to the weekly demand, even fall towards the second zone of demand located at 0.00001062, I recommend to be very attentive to the action of the price in 1D and never forget to place stop loss in all your operations to avoid possible invalidations during the movement.

As I always say, you have to be aware of the movement, invalidations can occur, there is no 100% reliable analysis, take your own precautions when trading.

STEEM is today the 7th best performing crypto…

…out of the top 100.

Yesterday and specially today we are finally seeing a good move upwards on the STEEM price action and also on other “traditional” altcoins as MONERO, SIACOIN and NEM that were stagnant lately.

Despite we are still far below the 50 Days Moving Average (50DMA) it is really a good signal.

The 50DMA is one of the main tools/indicators used by the traders. STEEM will need to break that line for a few days in order to reaffirm a consolidation state and a initial indication of a possible Reversal.

Typically people used to trade around this line, because a breakout upwards very often indicates a Bullish Scenario while downwards is, of course Bearish, however we have to be very careful here because there are many traps already “programmed ” around the breakout.

So, in order to consider STEEM out of “Bears Jaws” we have to break that line and stay around or above for a 3 or 4 days more.

I’m not trading STEEM at all but buying small quantities these days however I am crossing fingers to see this scenario occurring soon.

AION technical analysis

AION seen from the temporality of 1W we can see how the structure of candles has remained within a range since the month of July 2019, the major figure is that of a descending wedge, indicated in the graph above by the two diagonals red, this wedge has entered into formation since August 2018, the price is currently at a key moment to look for the break, the key support located at 0.00000841, indicated in the graph by the horizontal blue color must be recovered to ensure a next bullish movement to get the break of the resistance of the major figure, if we achieve it, we should reach our first target located in the 0.00001900 that I have marked as an area of supply, the price could continue to reach our second target located within the price range of 0.00002167 – 0.00002704, indicated in the graph by the rectangle light blue.

AION seen from the temporality of 1D we can observe more closely the current movement of candles, I have indicated through a yellow circle, the current area where the price in its retreat has managed to withstand the support of the demand in 1D located at 0.00000780, indicated through the horizontal black color, the current candle is marking a long lower wick, signal of buying pressure in that area, to close so, would be a strong signal to go looking for the reclaim of the blue horizontal and continuation with bullish momentum.

In conclusion, AION has had a long run within the descending wedge, currently the price gives a strong signal of a movement with upward inclination, within the temporality of 1D, the price has come created a series of HL that the movement continues to respect, as I mentioned above, we must recover the key support located at 0.00000841 to then look for a much larger long movement, the daily candle is closing well, however, we must be very attentive to the action of the price of the next candles in 1D to secure our position, always remember to place stop loss in all your operations to avoid possible invalidations during the movement.

As I always say, you have to be aware of the movement, invalidations can occur, there is no 100% reliable analysis, take your own precautions when trading.

This week i have been experimenting with Fuji fp-100c image transfers and emulsion lifts….

Fuji fp-100c is an anologue instant film similar to polaroid. Currently it is no longer in production but you can still buy unopened packs on ebay. its not cheap though, you have to pay 3 times its original value atm. about £4+ per shot.



The images were shot in studio using professional Bowens Gemini studio flash.
2 heads with soft boxes.
Camera : Professional Polaroid 600SE (aka the GOOSE) with Mamiya 127mm lens.

The above image is an image transfer, the image is transfered onto Watercolour paper. This is done by only developing the film for 15 seconds before pulling the film apart and laying onto paper, the film is then rolled with a brayer roller for 125 sec. For best result transfer in subdued light or a box to minimise light hitting the sides of the print.

You can also do emulsion lifts with this film. An emulsion lift is where you literally float the emulsion image layer off the film sheet. For this method you develop the film normally the float the film in warm water (40+ degrees centigrade)
the emulsion then lifts off the plastic backing. you can then float the emulsion onto watercolour paper. see pic below

I then scan the transfer or emulsion lift with my Epson perfection V800 scanner for the final image, i can then print onto fine art giclee paper with my canon prograf 1000 printer.
the below pic was printed onto Harman by Hahnemühle Matt Cotton Textured, 300gsm
