► Our EUR/USD SHORT hit our in-profit SL at 1.08111 – we re-enter at a higher rate above 1.08200. The EUR is benefiting from the improved risk sentiment (although we see European equities already erasing earlier gains), as well as from the significantly lower oil prices, as investors hope for de-escalation after Israel (only) delivered a limited blow against Iran – which neither targeted Iran's nuclear projects nor, more importantly, Iran's oil facilities.
► We see an empty economic calendar today, which has also helped to stabilize risk sentiment. This week's data will focus on the US - including the US GDP report (Q3) and the non-farm payrolls (on Friday), as well as the earnings reports of some of Wall Street's most valuable (tech) companies.
► expect solid growth data (GDP) suggesting that the US economy remains robust – in contrast to the continued signs of slowing and economic trouble in the Eurozone/UK. Volkswagen plans job cuts and 10% pay cuts amid plans for German plant closures, showing the continued weakness of the German/European manufacturing sector in the face of high costs, falling demand and rising competition.
► While the EUR is benefitting from the slightly improved risk sentiment, we also see US Treasury yields continuing to rise (benefiting from lower safe haven demand for US bonds and decreased rate cut expectations).

🔰 OPTIONAL PENDING ORDER 🕯
PENDING ORDER 🔼 Gold (XAU/USD)🥇
"BUY" AT 🔼 (VIP ONLY) (range 2713.50 - 2719.50)
► Good morning. You can work with a pending order, as gold opened significantly lower here this week and remained lower in early Asian trading. We closed our gold position near the possible maximum on Friday (congratulations!) and took advantage of Friday's purchases in times of uncertainty / geopolitical tensions and concerns about an intensification of the ongoing war / conflict in the Middle East.
► Israeli fighter jets attacked military targets in Iran on Saturday, delivering on their promise to retaliate for a rocket attack earlier this month (which caused little damage). The attack was more restrained than expected: oil, nuclear and civilian infrastructure was avoided, as the administration of US President Joe Biden had demanded. I also see clear signs that Israel wanted to set the almost minimal sign to prevent further escalation - including notifying Iran in advance of the targets Israel would attack overall - although Israel could still set the course for a further attack, especially in the event that Donald Trump should become president again (which I consider likely; less likely, however, that Israel will go on a war confrontation course with Iran here).
► Gold remains an excellent investment in the medium term. We currently see solid support in the $2,710 - $2,720 range (with strong support at the key $2,700 mark).
🗣️ Tip: Multiply your usual trade size by ~ 0.5 - 0.7 (50% - 70%) when trading gold (XAU/USD)

We have set a new record – I would even dare to say that this is most likely a world record (success rate of over 126 intra-day trades / all asset classes). We have only lost 8 out of 126 trades = 93.7% ‼️ success rate. This is such an incredible number/performance that it is actually hard to believe – especially since we are actually in a very difficult market.
Incidentally, four of the eight losing trades were actually stock trades. It is even more incredible when you consider that we traded all asset classes in these 126 trades / went pretty balanced SHORT and LONG and, above all, never closed for micro-profits.
We can be very, very ,very proud (but of course stay humble and focused) of this achievement, especially considering the current very difficult market. It is definitely one for the history books. Congratulations again!

Congratulations – the market was a little mispriced and sentiment-driven today - we fully understood the market and what is priced in. There were many traps that most trades fell into, especially those who relied on technical analysis
(⚠️ please do not follow "fake experts"/trading signals that only use technical analysis).
In the end, all our predictions came true, as the markets followed the fundamentals and showed some risk aversion towards the end of the trading week.
We got very good entries into our USD LONGs (against the market) (and predicted the reversal area almost perfectly) and brought our GBP/USD home with a very tight TP.

► Although I usually avoid buying after significant (short-term) price gains, we expect gold to continue to rise towards the end of the trading week as concerns about further geopolitical escalation in the Middle East persist.
► Opinion polls show that the race for the White House remains very close less than two weeks before the presidential election on November 5 (I strongly expect Trump to win; analysts tend to expect Harris), which adds to the general uncertainty on the markets.
► We see a stabilizing USD / yields, which will not provide gold with any additional fundamental tailwind. However, we see sentiment driven buys with uncertainty continue to increase (also with profit taking in stocks to return likely).
► Gold has recently seen somewhat muted demand from top gold buyers China and India. However, we are also seeing a general erosion of confidence in fiat currencies - China has also pledged massive stimulus measures (again) and US debt continues to rise rapidly. The US Congressional Budget Office expects the national debt to rise further from 98% of GDP in 2023 to 181% of GDP in 2053, which also further improves the long-term outlook for gold (and Bitcoin).
► We see silver outperforming gold again today - giving the yellow precious metal an additional tailwind. We buy the next mini dip. We also see rising oil prices - also a sign of growing concerns about further escalation in the Middle East (now at 71.50+).
► We closed our overnight gold trade 📸 (our 27th ‼️ consecutive successful gold trade) with a nice profit and now find an entry below our triggered TP (2737.73).

📊 SmartTrader Insights: Friday Markets Wrap 🗒
📆 Friday, October 25
❗️ European stocks decline amid mixed earnings; Wall Street little changed but poised for weekly drop after yield spike
► European markets faced slight downward pressure with the Stoxx 600 slipping by over 0.2%, as earnings reports from major firms added mixed sentiment. Sanofi reported Q3 non-GAAP EPS of €2.25 on revenue of €13.44 billion, up 12.3% year-over-year, though shares slipped by 1.5% amid adjusted FY EPS guidance that now reflects a slight currency impact. Meanwhile, luxury brand Remy Cointreau (-0.8%) reduced its annual sales guidance, citing weak demand in the US and China, and energy giant Eni (+0.6%) lowered its profit forecast despite better-than-expected Q3 earnings. France's consumer confidence fell to 94 in October, and Spain reported a 5.2% drop in producer prices. German business climate improved to still low 86.5 up from 85.4 (and also above expectations 85.6). Italian business climate worsened sharply to 85.8 (from 86.6) and came in well below expectations of 87.0.
► S&P 500 futures remained steady, though the index is tracking toward a weekly loss of nearly 1% - its first in seven weeks - as higher Treasury yields curb investor enthusiasm. Rising yields, which gained around 10 basis points this week, have dimmed rate-cut expectations from the Fed beyond the expected November cut, adding to the cautious sentiment ahead of November’s presidential vote. On the corporate front, Tesla’s mega performance (near 22% higher) buoyed the Nasdaq, while weaker earnings from IBM, Honeywell, and Boeing weighed down the Dow Jones. Tesla, however, ist trading 2% lower currently (in pre-market) sharply underperforming Wall Street. Traders are now eyeing next week’s payrolls data for clarity on the Fed’s stance.
► Asian indices saw mixed results as Japan's Nikkei fell 0.76%, pressured by core inflation that softened to 1.8% in October, its lowest in five months. The JPY remained steady, hovering around 152 per USD, as Japan's weekend election looms, raising potential volatility for Japanese equities. In contrast, Chinese stocks, including the Shanghai Composite, gained 0.65% following news that the People’s Bank of China injected liquidity to stabilize markets. Hong Kong's Hang Seng index rose 0.5%, driven by a sector-wide recovery after recent declines.
► Oil prices are little changed at around $70.3/barrel, with markets monitoring ongoing tensions in the Middle East that could affect supply. Gold prices dipped to $2,720/oz, due to some returning profit taking after it hit recent all-time highs. Overall, geopolitical instability and limited Fed rate-cut potential mean USD strength may persist, making precious metals like gold an attractive hedge. SmartTrader Chief Analyst Robert Lindner expects gold buying the final hours of regular US trading today.

3/3 = 100% 🏆 Success Rate
Just a week ago, I predicted that our success rate (in our five-week period) would drop from 93.1% to below 93% and probably wouldn't get above 93% for a long time. That was one of my worst predictions this year ... 😅
Now we are back at 93%. We have achieved this incredible performance in the persistently uncertain markets, most recently with several changes of direction, we have roughly balanced SHORT / LONG, traded all asset classes and never settled for micro-profits... This is still an actually indescribable performance - especially because we have maintained this actually "unattainable" success rate for weeks (> 90% success rate). 👏
This update is absolutely perfect, because Sep. 13 - the day that fell out - was also a 100% 🏆 day (4 out of 4) - as was the day that was now included in our five-week period (Oct. 17 - 5 out of 5).
Otherwise, no update here as all these positions were already closed yesterday.
Congratulations again 🎆 - and as always, stay humble, focused, calm and share some of the profits with people who could use a helping hand - thank you❤️

Nevertheless - one should not underestimate FOMO purchases - especially for Tesla. We assume (VIP ONLY) FOMO purchases (VIP ONLY)
► Furthermore, Tesla (or rather Tesla CEO Elon Musk) has once again sold the hype phenomenally. In the Tesla earnings conference call, Musk said that he expects “vehicle growth” to reach 20% to 30% in 2025 due to “lower cost vehicles” and the “advent of autonomy” - That's well above the roughly 15% increase in deliveries to 2.04 million expected by analysts.

BUY WHEN NYSE OPENS 🔼 Apple (AAPL) 🇺🇸
Recommended Entry Range ✅228.50 - 229.10
⏱️ Signal DELAYED by: 55+ (!) minutes! ⚠️⚠️
Wall Street is opening higher, but despite good US economic data (including further signs that the US labor market remains robust) and a strong start to today's earnings-heavy day, with Tesla in particular boosting market sentiment after Tesla reported surprisingly good earnings and forecast growth of up to 30% in EV sales next year (which is unlikely to materialize), among other things, trading remains cautious. We could see a typical rebound trap here.
🔹The S&P 500 (+0.40%) was able to reduce yesterday's heavy losses a little thanks to the gains in the big tech and chip stocks and the very good pre-market performance of Tesla (+15%). We may see further buying towards 5870, but the short-term outlook points to further profit-taking. We set a rather tight TP ✅ @: 5806.70.
🔹 Texas Instruments (+0.5%) is benefiting from the gains in the tech/chip sector, but is moving in an area where profit-taking will continue (especially in the 202.50 - 204.00 range). We tighten the TP slightly ✅ @: 200.16.
► Apple is showing strong underperformance versus tech / big tech - as is so often the case when investors push back into riskier growth stocks and Apple tends to be seen as the more conservative play. Apple fell sharply yesterday after supply chain analyst Ming-Chi Kuo reported that the company has cut iPhone 16 orders for the fourth quarter of this year and the first half of 2025 by about 10 million units - and surprisingly, most of the cuts are for the regular iPhone 16 and not the iPhone 16 Pro models - which overall contrasts with wait times as well as recent reports (e.g. from Bloomberg).
► Apple Intelligence is expected to be introduced in an iOS 18.1 update sometime next week as a beta feature for new users to test. It is supported by the latest iPhone 16 models and last year's iPhone 15 Pro models.
► We see Apple opening lower (slightly below $230.00 or currently 0.4% lower) after closing more than 2.1% lower yesterday. We expect Apple to stabilize and trim recent losses - but may see further slight losses first. Apple can generally benefit if the other tech / big tech stocks encounter resistance.
► Analysts are still very optimistic about Apple - especially in view of the upcoming AI integrations, which could further boost sales of iPhones and Apple services. Rosenblatt recommends to buy - ahead of next week's earnings report, following (among others). the “outperform” rating from Bernstein yesterday.
🗣️ Tip: Multiply your usual trade size by ~ 240 - 260 (24.000% - 26.000%) when trading Apple (APPL).

► Risk sentiment improved today on positive earnings reports – including from Tesla, but also from European companies such as Hermes, Unilever, Equinox, Barclays, Renault – leading to some dip-buying in the latest slide. Asian equities did not benefit from the improved risk sentiment. We do not see any fundamental change of direction here.
► We saw mostly weak PMI data – including from the (VIP ONLY), where both (VIP ONLY) deteriorated and fell short of expectations. In addition, (VIP ONLY) fell (VIP ONLY) lowest in two years (VIP ONLY) ...
► We see that yields in the US (but also (VIP ONLY)) are trending downwards for today. The USD has lost some of its recent strong gains. I expect the outlook for yields to remain bullish, which also supports USD strength. The USD also has tailwinds from the ongoing uncertainty in the Middle East (Turkey has now also launched attacks against Syrian and Iraqi targets in the aftermath of the terrorist attack), the US presidential election and the general uncertain growth outlook.
► The US economy continues to outperform and remains robust – which should also be reflected in the US purchasing managers‘ indices (which are likely to outperform the European, Japanese and Australian purchasing managers’ indices – all published today), including slight signs of weakness in the US labor market.
► (VIP ONLY)/USD is up (VIP ONLY)% – we sell here and see rising resistance towards (VIP ONLY)...

📊 SmartTrader Insights: Monday Markets Wrap 🗒
📆 Monday, October 28
❗️ Markets benefit from sharp oil price drop & hopes of de-escalation in Middle East ahead of big tech earnings week
► European stocks opened mixed as investors weighed potential geopolitical risks and reviewed upcoming data-heavy events. The European Stoxx 600 index rose slightly by 0.2%, recouping some losses from last week. London's FTSE 100 is flat weighed by losses in energy, while Germany’s DAX gained 0.3%. French shares are trading higher (+0.6%) with luxury stocks performing well. Dutch medical device company Philips, which lowered its sales forecast due to weak Chinese demand fell sharply (near -18%).
► US futures rose on Monday morning, suggesting a positive start for Wall Street after last week’s slight decline. S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100 contracts indicated potential cautious gains driven by optimistic tech earnings expectations from several "Magnificent Seven" companies this week. Investors also await key economic data, such as the US GDP report and Friday’s payrolls report (NFP). The USD remained steady as traders await guidance from tech earnings and upcoming payroll reports, with analysts expecting slow quarterly growth from tech leaders like Microsoft, Alphabet, and Amazon. The 10-year Treasury yield rose four basis points to 4.28%, reflecting reduced haven demand amid signs of easing Middle Eastern tensions. Political uncertainty remains in the US with US presidential election drawing near.
► Asian markets posted mixed results, with Japan’s Topix index up over 2% following a weakened JPY after Japan’s snap election resulted in losses for the ruling coalition. The JPY’s decline boosted sentiment for Japan's export-focused economy. Meanwhile, Chinese shares slipped as industrial profits fell in September, revealing persistent deflationary pressures. Hong Kong’s Hang Seng index gained by over 0.2%, while India’s Sensex surged 0.55%, led by strong gains from Waaree Energies after its successful IPO debut.
► Oil prices plunged over 6% as Middle Eastern tensions eased, with Israel’s attacks avoiding critical oil facilities, reducing the immediate risk premium. Hopes for further de-escalation rose, which may allow oil prices to align more closely with fundamentals. Currently, WTI Crude oil prices hover around $67.25/barrel (spot price). Gold, which saw strong support last week due to geopolitical concerns, opened lower in early Asian trading as predicted by our SmartTrader Chief Analyst Robert Lindner, with geopolitical eased after Israel limits Iran strikes. Gold is currently trading at $2,730/oz but
remains medium-term very attractive according to our chief analyst.

Sorry - I had a long meeting (we will also be launching a new product for long-term investing soon! 🔜). The meeting had already started four hours ago, which also caused me to make the last Nasdaq update a little late (though still on time) – but my Nasdaq position is still open because it didn't trigger the TP due to the spread – if that's the case with you too – don't worry, we'll find a good time for a good closing on Monday.
That being said, we traded very well today and made stellar calls (all against the markets). Everything we called happened exactly as predicted at the end of the day – including profit taking in stocks, a stronger USD and gains in oil/gold.
We also closed our positions very well (all in TP or manually) – except TXN in SL.
Congratulations 👏 on another very good day/week (on a difficult day). We did a particularly good job in position management today. Best, your Robert

That's what it looks like together (all our forex & gold trades). We can safely assume that no one, whether human or algorithm, has traded gold and / or the USD at our level in the past 6+ weeks / likely all year.
Congratulations again - I am delighted that we have achieved this performance together, which is probably unique in the history of short term trading - and our winning streak continues ...

SELL NOW 🔽 Tesla (TSLA) 🇺🇸
⚠️ HIGH Volatility; Position AGAINST market
Recommended Entry Range ✅268 - 270
⏱️ Signal DELAYED by: 45+ (!) minutes! ⚠️⚠️
► We see strong early NYSE trading on Wall Street - again boosted by gains in big tech - with growth stocks outperforming overall. We now even see the Nasdaq 100 in positive territory for the week. Solid US durable goods orders (at least better than expected) and very optimistic consumer sentiment - which improved even further - have put the current upswing into a current buying frenzy.
► I see very limited further short-term upside potential from here and expect profit-taking to set in a little later (after a consolidation phase - which is starting now) as the outlook for yields also remains bullish. I expect yields to turn positive again later today, which will reduce the relief from yesterday's sharp rise in yields and the associated profit taking (which extended into today's session).
► We also see Tesla rebounding sharply after an opening 1.5 % lower. Tesla is completely sentiment driven here and has a valuation that is hard to justify. Furthermore, some of the sales growth data in Tesla's earnings report seems questionable and Tesla's growth forecast is very optimistic. Even in the best-case scenario, which seems to be priced in here, Tesla is significantly overvalued, as there are many uncertainties, including regulations regarding robotaxis. Tesla's projects, be it Robotaxis or the Optimus robots, are very difficult to assess, but they are heavily priced in with potential mega-profits in the future.
► We are now selling Tesla (again) with a daily gain of 3% and in the 268-270 range, which is close to the 2024 highs. We expect profit taking (and also technical resistance). Caution - Tesla remains very volatile in any case!

🔰 NYSE OPENING UPDATE 🕯
🔰 FREE VIP SIGNAL 🔰
BUY WHEN NYSE OPENS 🔼 Apple (AAPL) 🇺🇸
Recommended Entry Range ✅229.00 - 229.50*
*upd: AAPL opened a bit higher (229.74) & saw immediate strong gains.
⏱️ Signal DELAYED by: 25+ (!) minutes! ⚠️⚠️
We see a positive opening, but still cautious trading - Wall Street is still negative for the week. New orders for durable goods in the US came in slightly above expectations, but fell 0.8% on the month.
🔹The Nasdaq (+0.6%) is trading higher, with our position slightly out of profit. We could see slight additional gains initially as investors try to overcome higher borrowing costs. We expect some profit taking in the second half of US trading. We see a rebound in oil prices (as we expected), currently up 1.3%, which is also weighing somewhat on the growth sector.
🔹 Tesla (- 1.7%) opens significantly lower and will remain very volatile - perhaps even rising above yesterday's highs in the short term. However, after yesterday's mega gains, we are likely to see more profit taking today (especially in the second half of US trading). Tesla will also face technical resistance, especially in the 265-270 range. Our position is off-profit - we set a TP ✅ @: 250.61.
🔹 Texas Instruments (+0.6%) is extending its gains and will trigger our SL at the NYSE opening (if you are still holding your position). While we also expect profit taking in TXM (also in the medium term), we may find a better stock to trade / enter.
► We are again buying the significant underperformance of Apple - which generally does not benefit from a push into growth stocks and is seen more as a defensive tech stock. We see a similar opening price to yesterday - Apple is currently trading 0.5% lower, opening at around $229.40. Similar to yesterday, there could be some additional selling initially before Apple can recover (easily rising above $230 and probably above yesterday's highs). Apple is more likely to benefit from potential profit-taking in the other tech companies.
► KeyBank analyst Brandon Nispel downgrades Apple from “sector weigh” to “underweight” and sets a price target of $200, a discount of about 13% from yesterday's closing price of $230.00. Nispel says he sees signs of weak iPhone sales when he analyzed the latest consumer survey data. According to Nispel, the cheaper iPhone 16 (which also has access to Apple intelligence) could cannibalize sales of the 16 Pro. I think Nispel is far too pessimistic here - especially as he undervalues Apple Intelligence (and the potential boost to Apple Services revenue).
► Nispel also pointed out Apple's expensive valuation, currently at a price-to-earnings ratio of around 34 - which I don't see as a big problem (at least in the short term) given Apple's huge return on capital, outstanding FCF and huge cash pile.
🗣️ Tip: Multiply your usual trade size by ~ 240 - 260 (24.000% - 26.000%) when trading Apple (APPL).

TP ✅ @: (VIP ONLY)
Recommended Entry Range ✅(VIP ONLY)
⏱️ Signal DELAYED by: 45+ (!) minutes! ⚠️⚠️
► The (VIP ONLY) is slightly in the green and is benefiting from improved (VIP ONLY) and some tailwind in early US trading, although this is unlikely to last. Overall, however, the Eurozone economic data does not point to an upswing.
► Tesla provided a big boost yesterday - in an overall very mixed and still cautious market. We see that Tesla is currently trading 2% lower in pre-market trading - with significantly more correction potential - which could lead to Tesla being the drag on Wall Street today instead of leading the index higher
► Lower yields also caused some dip buying yesterday - this “trend” will not continue.
► Yesterday's drop in oil prices will be short-lived - we already see oil prices up 0.7% and expect further gains in US trading and before the weekend as investors remain concerned about further “escalation” in the Middle East.
► A rebound in (VIP ONLY) and gains in (VIP ONLY) “tech” stocks (VIP ONLY) after strong results from T-Mobile US (VIP ONLY) as well as a strong performance from (VIP ONLY) are currently keeping the (VIP ONLY) in positive territory. We expect the (VIP ONLY) to fall back into the (VIP ONLY) range during the course of the day. The (VIP ONLY) continues to encounter resistance at / above (VIP ONLY) ...

It has been a difficult / chaotic day at the markets and we have (too) many positions open - more than at any time in the last 3 months. We are therefore setting some not too wide TPs - including a tighter TP for our WTI position and our two USD LONGs.
Tesla shook the markets today - and us a bit - although we recognized the mixed markets / rebound trap and were also able to close our S&P 500 in profit 📸. We expect further profit-taking tomorrow.

🔰 FREE PENDING ORDER 🕯
PENDING ORDER 🔼 Gold (XAU/USD)🥇
"BUY" AT 🔼 2726.87
► We can work with a pending order here - which may trigger during Asian trading. Gold performed relatively poor today given the weaker USD. However, we expect some gold buying before the end of this week's trading.
🗣️ Tip: Multiply your usual trade size by ~ 0.5 - 0.7 (50% - 70%) when trading gold (XAU/USD)
- With 26 successful gold trades in a row, we currently hold likely the longest active gold winning streak in the world (in intra-day trading -> overview: /channel/trial_smarttrader/20414) 🏆
🔰 FREE VIP SIGNAL 🕯
SELL NOW 🔽 EUR/USD
Recommended Entry Range ✅1.08290 - 1.08440
⏱️ Signal DELAYED by: 40+ (!) minutes! ⚠️⚠️
► We are SHORT in the GBP/USD (currently slightly in profit - depending on your entry) and can continue to take advantage of the only temporary USD weakness. We see the EUR/USD at session-highs at NYSE closing, although economic data from the US and the eurozone continue to diverge. Eurozone PMI data remains poor. The HCOB Flash Eurozone Composite PMI rose slightly to 49.7 in October, up from September's seven-month low of 49.6, but slightly below expectations. German PMIs remained poor, French PMIs continued to fall and were weaker than expected.
► The S&P Global US Composite PMI rose to 54.3 in October 2024 (from 54.0 in September), continuing to show robust growth in economic activity at the start of the fourth quarter (preliminary data). However, this growth was driven exclusively by the strong US service sector. There was also no significant weakness in the US labor market. The number of applications for unemployment benefits was the lowest it has been in almost a month - although the number of applications for continued employment rose slightly to 1.89 million (the highest level since November 2021).
► The markets expect the Fed to cut interest rates in November. Anything else would be a shock for the markets and is very unlikely - especially in the run-up to the presidential election campaign, which remains a factor of uncertainty. We also see ongoing geopolitical unrest - both positive for the USD.
► No tier 1 economic data due tomorrow, but we are likely to see further poor German business sentiment data and further declines in inflation expectations in the Eurozone. While the Fed can only cut interest rates to a limited extent, the ECB will remain under pressure to counter the ongoing economic weakness with monetary easing. The medium-term outlook for the EUR/USD remains bearish.
► We are selling here in the short term. You can sell here (near 1.08300) or work with a pending order.

SELL NOW 🔽 (VIP ONLY) 🇺🇸
Recommended Entry Range ✅(VIP ONLY)
⏱️ Signal DELAYED by: 45+ (!) minutes! ⚠️⚠️
► We are selling the (VIP ONLY) here at the eventual peak of the second half of US trading, with the (VIP ONLY) climbing back above (VIP ONLY) after a strong (VIP ONLY) performance - but the absolute lion's share is the extreme outperformance of EV pioneer Tesla, which is currently up 20% (!), its best day in more than three years.
► Tesla alone (VIP ONLY) into outperformance.
► We are currently seeing the first potentially positive session for the S&P 500 this week. However, the Dow Jones is down almost 200 points today as it did not benefit from the Tesla effect and was pressured by IBM (after rather disappointing results) as well as losses from Honeywell (also weak results), (VIP ONLY) and (VIP ONLY) ...
► Although Wall Street got off to a strong start today - boosted initially by positive earnings reports (including from Europe) and yesterday's Tesla figures (and forecast in particular) - the earnings season has been rather mixed overall so far: According to FactSet data (from Friday), analysts expect companies in the S&P 500 to report a 4.2% increase in earnings compared to the same quarter last year, compared to the 7.8% expected on June 30. However, of the 160 earnings already reported (by S&P 500 companies), we have so far only seen a year-on-year earnings growth rate of 3.4% - which (VIP ONLY) ...

⚡️ LIGHTNING-RAPID UPDATE 🕯
S&P 500 (SPX500) 🇺🇸
TP ✅ @: 5803.20
Apple (AAPL) 🇺🇸
SL 🔑 @: 229.23
TP ✅ @: 230.44
Texas Instruments (TXN) 🇺🇸
SL 🔑 @: 207.07
TP ✅ @: 200.52
Our S&P 500 is back in profit. It was the rebound trap we expected - which certainly also offered good entries (such as in the Nasdaq 100) but it's correct to not overtrade. You can slightly widen your TP here. The S&P 500 will likely find some temporary support at 5800.
We also secure nice profits with Apple. We found an excellent entry and unlike the general market, Apple was able to trim early losses (as we expected).
We also limit losses with our TXM position.
PS: Your TP may have already been triggered at 5806.70 - good TP!

BUY NOW 🔼 WTI (USOIL) 🛢 (spot)
TP ✅ @: (VIP ONLY)
Recommended Entry Range ✅70.80 - 71.00
⏱️ Signal DELAYED by: 60+ (!) minutes! ⚠️⚠️
► We closed yesterday's WTI SHORT in profit today and now expect oil prices to perform solidly in early US trading, although two reports on crude oil inventories (from EIA and API) show that inventories in the US are rising faster than expected.
► We have seen mixed economic data today (rather poor data from the Eurozone, UK and Japan; robust data from the US), but overall strong earnings reports (in various sectors). We also see mixed markets, but overall improved risk sentiment, which may help energy prices to temporarily rebound - especially in light of further unrest in the Middle East, where Israeli attacks on the southern suburbs of Beirut are increasing and reaching unprecedented levels. The Iran-backed militant group appears unfazed by weeks of heavy Israeli bombardment. Hezbollah has fired around 135 shells at Israel from Lebanon. Israeli attacks also hit the Syrian capital Damascus, Syrian state media reported.
► Turkey also attacked Kurdish militant targets in Syria and Iraq for a second day after at least five people were killed in an attack on the premises of an important Turkish arms company. There is also further unrest in the war between Russia and Ukraine - an estimated 12,000 North Korean soldiers have joined the war on Russia's side.
