Gold is printing new all-time highs, yet relative to the S&P 500 it’s nowhere near the explosive levels seen in the 2008–2012 cycle.
Perspective matters, price alone doesn’t tell the full story.
📈 Inside Bar Strategy explained
An inside bar forms when a candle trades fully within the high and low of the previous one. It shows that the market has paused after a move, with buyers and sellers waiting before the next push. This pause often builds energy for a breakout.
🟡 The strongest signals come after momentum candles in a clear trend or when price tests major support or resistance
🟡 A buy stop above the inside bar high or a sell stop below its low lets you enter only if price confirms direction
🟡 Stop loss is placed just beyond the other side of the bar so risk is defined and controlled
🟡 Targets can be set using fixed reward-to-risk ratios, nearby levels, or trailing stops to capture extended moves
The inside bar is not a magic signal on its own. It works best when combined with market context - trend direction, levels, and volume. Used this way, it becomes a simple but powerful tool to catch clean moves.
One main difference between the professional trader and the amateur trader is not their strategy, system, psychology, and etc.
But just knowing when to trade and when not to.

🤖 AI is coming for jobs and faster than most expect.
According to Microsoft’s research, the roles with the highest risk of replacement are interpreters, historians, flight attendants, sales reps, writers, and customer service.
In other words, jobs that rely on pattern recognition, structured responses, or repeatable tasks.
But there’s nuance.
AI is best at automating what is routine and predictable. Where humans will keep their edge is in areas requiring:
🟡 Critical thinking — asking the right questions, not just answering them
🟡 Creativity — producing something genuinely new, not derivative
🟡 Human trust — leadership, relationships, empathy
🟡 Adaptability — being able to shift skills and domains as tools change
The chart shows millions of roles exposed, but history is clear: technology does not just destroy jobs, it reshapes them. The typewriter killed scribes but created millions of roles in publishing. The internet destroyed travel agencies but built trillion-dollar digital industries.
The real takeaway is not to compete with AI where it is strongest. Use it to multiply your own edge, automate the grunt work, and position yourself where human judgment still matters.

🗓 Key events this week
A short holiday week still packs a heavy macro punch. Traders will be watching every data release as positioning into September builds.
🟡Monday — Labor Day
Markets closed, but futures still set the tone. Expect lower liquidity.
🟡Tuesday — ISM Manufacturing PMI
A key read on industrial activity. Weakness here reinforces slowdown fears, while a surprise uptick could reprice Fed expectations.
🟡Wednesday — JOLTS Job Openings
Closely watched by the Fed. Fewer openings would confirm cooling in the labor market, a signal for easing inflation pressures.
🟡Thursday — ADP Payrolls
Private-sector hiring update, often a noisy but directional preview of Friday’s jobs report.
🟡Thursday — Jobless Claims
Weekly gauge of labor health. Persistent claims creeping higher would add weight to slowdown narratives.
🟡Thursday — ISM Services PMI
The most important PMI print — services dominate the US economy. A miss here would hit growth sentiment hard.
🟡Thursday — Broadcom $AVGO earnings
One of the last big AI-linked reports this season. Guidance will matter more than the quarter itself.
🟡Friday — US August Jobs Report
The main event. A soft print would strengthen bets on September rate cuts. A strong number could delay that timeline.
Manufacturing, services, and labor data all land in one compressed week. Add $AVGO earnings, and you’ve got catalysts lined up every day from Tuesday through Friday.
A goal without steps is just a wish on paper.

💵 Another $100B in T-bills hits the market
The U.S. Treasury is auctioning a record $100B in 4-week bills this week. Every sale pushes supply higher, and demand is being tested as deficits balloon.
🟡 Federal debt is now approaching $40T
🟡 The annual deficit is running near $2T
🟡 Short-term issuance is breaking records month after month
This is the quiet engine of markets: constant refinancing of short-term debt. It keeps liquidity moving today but compounds rollover risk tomorrow. The bigger the stack of bills, the more sensitive the system becomes to shifts in rates or demand.
Short-dated Treasuries may look “risk-free” on the surface, but they are also the canary in the fiscal mine.
✅ Charlie Munger’s investing checklist
Charlie Munger was Warren Buffett’s long-time partner at Berkshire Hathaway and one of the sharpest thinkers in investing. He built his success on a set of principles that stayed consistent for decades.
🟡 Risk: always demand a margin of safety and never confuse luck with skill
🟡 Allocation: put real capital to work only when the odds are clearly in your favor
🟡 Patience: compounding takes time but it is the strongest force in finance
🟡 Independence: think for yourself and avoid following the crowd
🟡 Humility: stay inside your circle of competence and admit mistakes quickly
🟡 Preparation: read widely, build mental models, and be ready when opportunity comes
Munger’s checklist is a reminder that successful investing is not about constant action.
It is about discipline, clear thinking, and the willingness to wait until the right moment to act with conviction.
Look at some of the greatest traders who ever lived.
Across the board you'll see this almost crazy ability to just not give up.
And that's what is required to succeed.
Failure shouldn't scare you.
You should learn to dance with it.
You should allow it to mold you.

Читать полностью…Trump’s health has turned into the main rumor mill.
After Vance said he is ready to take over the presidency if something happens to Trump, theories about the president’s illness started spreading. Trump has not been seen in public since August 26, when he looked unwell according to witnesses. His schedule has been empty since then. A bruise was spotted on his right hand.
The White House earlier confirmed he has chronic venous insufficiency. The bruise was explained as irritation from handshakes and aspirin use. Axios later quoted an official saying Trump is fine and spent the morning playing golf. No details on who with. White House pool then said he is at Trump National with his grandchildren, but video shared turned out to be old.
Today Trump is expected to make an important statement. At the same time the road to Walter Reed medical center, which treats US presidents, their families and top officials, was closed and that fueled more speculation. Some even claim recent photos look like a double.
The mood is dark.
Markets will watch closely what comes out of today’s announcement.
📉 Palantir insiders are cashing out
In 2025, Palantir executives have sold more than $1B worth of stock while buying just $1.2M.
Recent filings show heavy selling from the CTO and Chief Revenue Officer, with multiple block disposals above $150 per share.
When insiders rush for the exit while the chart looks vertical, it usually means one thing: they know how rich this move already is.
⚡️ Electricity prices in a straight line higher
Average US city power prices are pushing 19¢ per kWh and the chart looks more like a parabolic altcoin than a utility line.
🟡 AI data centers and server farms are draining the grid
🟡 EV charging adds constant demand
🟡 Infrastructure upgrades keep pushing costs higher

📈 Linda Raschke’s 12 rules that still work today
Linda Raschke is one of the original Market Wizards with more than 40 years of trading experience. Her rules sound simple, but they remain some of the most practical lessons for anyone trading price action.
🟡 Buy the first pullback after a new high.
Sell the first rally after a new low
Momentum usually continues before it reverses.
🟡 Afternoon strength or weakness should have follow through the next day
The market rarely fakes late moves without showing them again in the morning.
🟡 The best reversals happen in the morning
If you want to catch clean turns, focus on early hours.
🟡 The bigger the gap, the higher the chance of continuation
Gaps are emotion and positioning — they rarely close right away.
🟡 Watch how price reacts around the previous day’s high or low
These are key tests of strength or weakness.
🟡 Yesterday’s high and low are pivot points
Price either rejects them or breaks through and continues.
🟡The last hour tells the truth
Smart money shows its hand late in the day. Consecutive strong closes confirm a trend.
🟡 High volume at the close means continuity next morning
Volume is conviction. It often carries into the next session.
🟡 The first hour defines the framework for the day
Most of the daily range is printed early.
🟡 Early signs of a strong trend matter more today than before
With more range coming in the first hour, waiting often means missing the move.
🟡Four timeless principles of price action
• Trends continue more often than they reverse
• Momentum leads price
• Trends end in climax
• Markets alternate between expansion and contraction
🟡 Nobody knows the future
The successful trader does not predict but reacts to what the market does.
These rules are decades old, yet they still map perfectly onto today’s markets. Because markets evolve, but human behavior does not.
Edge is not about being right. It is about reacting better than the crowd.

Читать полностью…📈 Nasdaq breaks all records
The Nasdaq’s market cap relative to the US money supply (M2) has reached 176%. This means the index is now almost twice the size of all liquid money in the economy.
Key points:
🟡 The ratio is 45 points above the Dot-Com Bubble peak in 2000
🟡 Market cap relative to US GDP is at 129%, almost double the Dot-Com era
🟡 Stock prices have never outpaced money supply growth by this much
This is not just an overextension. It is a signal that liquidity and valuations are completely out of sync. The last time we saw something close to this, it did not end quietly.
The question is no longer if it unwinds, but how violently.
Trying doesn’t guarantee success.
But not trying guarantees failure.
The choice has always been that simple.
