The euro, gold should bounce based on technical price positions, but S&P futures’ monthly chart shows more room to fall than rise, creating underneath opportunities for Q1-2 dip buys, writes Trevor Smith of Trevor's Trading.

My technical analysis–based opinion is that the battle for directions of the markets I track is between short-term and long-term traders in equity indices and crude oil. While I can’t determine crude oil’s trend direction, I can impart that it is a in a narrow range and will likely breakout in a wide range—my guess is it continues wave three up before reversing down into lows.  

As a family nurse practitioner licensed in KY and TN, I am planning/gathering resources to donate on a trip to the recently-damaged tornado zones from my nonprofit foundation I created Friday afternoon before the storms arrived. My April 5, 2021 article entitled, Currencies Plan a Tradeable Countertrend Rally noted chances of minor “possible earthquakes related to two consecutive, intense hurricane and flooding seasons' forces (2021-predicted 2022) on tectonic plates from storm flooding weight,” and also stated, “Be weather-prepared (have a 'go bag' with a light, helmet, whistle, radio, food/water/wipes, first aid kit, workboots, hatchet, etc.) in 2021 starting now, according to meteorologists in the event of tornadoes, hurricanes, and flood events.”

My last article, Gold & Bitcoin Surprise Traders, highlighted “My best predictive guess is that Bitcoin maximally destroys the most market participants by making a false upthrust to its overhead pivots before collapsing,” that did occur exactly that way, but I had no way of knowing it. It also predicted the market bearish sentiments on/near “December 1-3, (6 but markets are closed on Saturday and Sunday night, futures could gap down) 9, and 11” which were the actual lows and/or red candle days with follow-through continuation. As of December 14, 2021. Seven of ten projected ranges printed with missed range numbers being very close (0.33 cents off in crude oil; 80 points off in Bitcoin).
