Gold
After breaking the down trendline, we have seen aggressive buying to reach up to $2,000/ounce. After suggesting $1,800 as key level, this shows the power of chart analysis - of course nobody predicts external events, but charts provide good positioning tools.
USOIL
Up 12% since events in Gaza/Israel. Headlines will clearly dominate, but up channel can provide some areas of interest to trade around.
EURUSD
Trend line support needs to break down to reassure the $USD bulls.
GBPUSD
Downline trendline should contain any rallies and a good place to add to shorts, giving potential for good risk/reward trades.
BTCUSD
The bulls had a successful week pushing prices above the $30,000 level. As the chart below illustrates, volatility has picked up too.
Until next week, happy trading.
