When I was a bank trader, I became friendly with a trader who managed a forex dealing room. He related his philosophy, which I call a professional trader’s game plan that can be used by retail traders today.
A Professional Trader’s Strategy for the Retail Forex Trader
BTCUSD Monthly
Just my 10 cents worth… To understand BTC , one should go with the biggest time frame , and then use that picture to position him/herself on smaller intraday time frames. We have very interesting situation here – 5 days till months end and possible perfect pattern for a break UP . 63.480.00 is a pivotal – if closes above , most probably will break 70K and continue to new high around 80K Only below 63K we can talk about down.

US500 4 HOUR CHART

This is a hard one with the upside showing some signs of consolidating and at least on this chart needing to clear 5750 to put 5800 on the radar.
On the downside, support is at 5670-00.
Note that CFD price feeds can differ between broker, even those using the same symbol. Ss, look at the chart pattern if the levels below do not line up with the prices on your chart.
BTC 4 HOUR CHART – Stuck in a rut

BTC remains stuck in 60-65K as it continues to trade sideways in a range. Given its history, the range is too tight to last for long but while within it expect more chop.
Looking at this chart, you have seen me mention my Amazing Trader charting algo, which even with a volatile crypto, forms patterns and levels (see the bounce off resistance) that can be used to trade.
XAUUSD 4 HOUR CHART – Another record high

With another record high (2670), there is no change to what I have been saying
When in unchartered record territory, resistance is only a guess so use the latest record high as the only level that matters,
For day trading, watch 2650 as a pivotal (bias setting) level.
However, to suggest a pause, it would need a day without a new high.
AUDUSD 4 HOUR CHART – FAILURE?

When we talk about failure, AUDUSD failed to sustain the break of .6899.
Now it is dependent on the trendline and .6814 holding (and .6782-00 as well) or momentum will be broken and the last leg up negated..
In any case, the deck is cleared of buy stops unless 6908 is broken.
Global debt just reached $312 Trillion. The US is putting up $1 Trillion in debt every 100 days since, not saying anything, 2021. One might think with such out of control spending and more to come if Harris is elected that the top executives in every industry there is are hedging against that right now? A perennial icon in executive attitude surveys (not to be named here) indicates the vast majority favor the sell side of stocks worldwide if Harris becomes President. At an aggressive level. The reverse for Trump. Not making a political statement, just stating facts. Food for thought.
EURUSD 5 MINUTE CHART – WHY I LOVE THE AMAZING TRADER
Look at the bounce off AT support at 1.11918… this is no coincidence…why it is called “Amazing”… same support on a 15 minute chart

Case in point on market internals – Yields opened up strongly moments ago but immediately began pulling back which carried over to UsdJpy seeing a sudden, albeit small shot downhill. I would pay attention to those internals today, which are mixed with a slight tint to the downside in the pair. Again, however, the geopolitical element today should have stocks apprehensive and buoy USD unless it becomes dramatic and we see safe haven flows into CHF and such.
UsdJpy remains dominant on the buy side until 143.95 is compromised definitively. Why not just 143? This time, only this time, my cycle oriented system simply has that number this time. It is not stagnant. Entering the US day stock markets are apprehensive with the geopolitical turmoil and rightfully so. What could change that? Either some significant development or global markets simply revisiting the rate reduction effect in my view. Right now some components behind the scenes are negative Dollar so entirely possible. Yesterday they were decidedly positive but there was a delay in those orders filling through the market, which caused UsdJpy to run uphill overnight.
