$SPX Weekly Outlook: Neutral to Bearish $QQQ $IWM $DJI

The Government is now open – for 3 weeks at least. It took over 30 days for the shutdown to cease and the market rallied +10% during that time, a record. Oh the irony. US Markets have come a long way off the lows essentially in a straight line. The buy was on Christmas Eve, the buy is NOT now.

US Markets have put in a hanging man candle and essentially closed flat on the week. I am looking for a reversal candle in the near future. IF, and this is a big if, we do not get a reversal and we

Bitcoin: What a Snooze Fest

Been awhile since I posted about Bitcoin and with reason.  Price has been flatlined of late as we just muddle along in the middle of a range.
Range Bound and Hopefully Not Down
Until we see upside above about 4,200 there really isn’t much to talk about on the upside.   Looking at the chart below you can see we kind of flattened out at the bottom part of the last little move higher and are just riding right on the edge of it.
Hopefully this price level maintains otherwise we are likely to test that low near 3,100.

Guess we have to just wait

A(nother) word on Bitcoin ETFs

The market is definitely maturing its way out of FUD – an excellent sign for upcoming growth!

I don’t always get the short-term calls right, but man am I good at the long-term ones – the ones which are really important to investors!

The last two Bitcoin ETF applications were withdrawn this week (by CBOE and SolidX) due to the US government shutdown (allegedly). What happened to Bitcoin when they withdrew?

Nothing.

This is in stark contrast to the immature and frankly rather clueless 2018 market.

Do you remember the effect that any ETF news had on BTC in 2018? Any statement from the SEC,

The US Markets Path Going Forward $SPX $QQQ $IWM

The rally off the lows V shaped to new highs over the past 4 weeks. This was quite a V-shaped rally, which unsurprisingly, caught EVERYONE off guard. At the lows on Christmas Eve I said the rally is commencing and the immediate lows were in.
This was very important and still holds true. No one knows just how far the bounce goes, or rally for that matter but there are levels that should be noted. Regardless of how long it took, we are now here…

The market has 4 MAJOR levels of resistance that it will have to overtake before it

BTC 24 Jan – a change of direction

As I promised in my post of 22 Jan “Once I have better information I will publish an update in this regard (if necessary). “I have better information. You’re reading that update.

You can see my previous BTC post here: BTC 22 Jan – Medium-term updateIn it I proposed two possible scenarios: A drop to lower price levels or a modification to the tapering triangle we were in, resulting in a later price breakout.

In that post the price had just dropped through the bottom of the previous triangle, but not definitively so. For further details on those scenarios, see
