Scan Of The Markets

Equities up, risk-on currencies generally up, the Swissy down, sounds familiar? Now, this time, the subtlety not to overlook is the better performance of the USD during the US session coincidentally at a time when the EUR/USD finally hit the 1.20 round number.
The latest currency flows still leave us phenomenal conditions to engage in trend trading opportunities in a large number of instruments where both the 4h and the daily directional premise is in concordance. The Aussie, Kiwi and Pound make up most of the buy-side campaigns currently active alongside an equity space still ballooning.
In the fundamentals front, we learnt that the ISM came at a big beat on expectations even if the employment sub index remains in contraction. However, as the main driver still pushing risk higher is the lingering sentiment on the Fed’s new inflation approach (average inflation) which suggests ultra-loose monetary policy for longer.

Trending Markets On My Radar
In this section, I short-list the markets that meet the criteria, or are about, in order to engage on a directional trend off higher timeframes through a 15m chart entry. To get a deeper dive into the markets included in this section, watch my daily video.
This selection is done after analyzing markets through key metrics (Fractals and SMT) in different timeframes (4h and daily). A video on the power of the SMT can be found here “How To Trade Forex Trends Like A Pro“. The video “Fractals + SMT: The Multi-timeframe Functionality” is also a Must-Watch to fully grasp this style of analysis.
Hot Trade Of The Day
To see an expanded version, right-click and select ‘open link in new tab‘. In this section I pick a market or several ones that presented an opportunity to buy on weakness or sell on strength based on the higher timeframes outlook. My video analysis below will further elaborate on the logic behind the trade.
Insights Into Market Studies

MARKET STRUCTURES
Markets evolve in cycles followed by a period of distribution and/or accumulation. To understand the principles applied in the assessment of market structures, refer to this video. Fractal breakouts is at the epicenter to assist us in the analysis of chart structures.
MARKET MOMENTUM
In order to assess the market momentum of a particular asset, I’ve promoted for years the idea of using what I call the smart money tracker. The settings and the indicator can be obtained via our Discord room, where traders from all walks of life interact frequently. In this video I lay out the elements I look into to call trend directions.
PROJECTION TARGETS
The usefulness of the 100% projection resides in the symmetry and harmonic relationships of market cycles. By drawing a 100% projection, you can anticipate the area in the chart where some type of pause and potential reversals in price is likely to occur, due to 1. The side in control of the cycle takes profits 2. Counter-trend positions are added by contrarian players 3. These are price points where limit orders are set by market-makers.
