An update on the stock market via a zoomed-out daily chart of S&P futures: Resistance at 4195 continues to hold up, for now. I have written that should price get into the yellow area, a test of the top of the zone is likely; I think price is preparing to break into the yellow zone. Note the flattening 200-day moving average.

An update on Bitcoin: The below is the same weekly logarithmic chart I have shown in the past. The extremely symmetrical channel clearly remains intact, with the price consolidating above the 200-week moving average.

A zoomed-in view on the 4-hour timeframe shows support for Bitcoin tested, and thus far holding at the neckline of the inverse head and shoulder pattern I originally showed; and that, at the bottom range of a clearly defined channel.

Market participants may consider whether now is a good time to engage Bitcoin (either directly or by proxy via an exchange traded derivative), given the clearly identifiable support/resistance parameters, ergo (what should be) simplified personal risk/reward analysis.

Jonathan Da Silva

Jonathan Da Silva developed a passion for hard money and economics from a young age having been influenced by family who sought to teach me that "nothing is free", and the importance of intrinsic value early on. My interest in markets grew keener during the great financial crisis of 2008; leaning on family with vast trading experience, I began to self-educate on technical analysis and economics- drawing inspiration from the works of individuals like W.D. Gann and Adam Smith. I have been a proud member of the Kitco team since 2017 and hope that my writing inspires readers to consider an objective view of the metals, and the greater financial markets.
