Let's get into that a more right now. Hey there traders. It's Andrew Mitchem here at The Forex Trading Coach with weekly video and podcast number 622. Massive market moves recently on Metals and Cryptos.    Well the moves have been enormous haven't they. If you've been looking at like Bitcoin. Bitcoin was $126,000 just 17 days ago. Then it dropped to $72,000, a huge drop. Did you get some of that? Silver, $121. Just three days ago, then dropped to $71 just in three days. Huge. Did you get some of that? Gold. $5,500 just three days ago. Right now, $4,400 in three days. Again. Incredible moves. Hopefully you got some of that movement. Did you miss out on making money from these moves? And if you didn't, you need to be asking some questions. Because if you go and have a look at, say, the gold and silver, have a look at the daily chart and you'll see at the top of a very, very large uptrend on both markets there was suddenly a huge indecision candle. It was the early warning signal for us as technical traders that things were coming to an end. The bullish run was coming to an end and look what we saw. Now, sure, not many people could have seen such a massive drop in just such a short amount of time. That's not really the point. The point is that if you had seen that indecision candle and you still had some buy positions in, probably a good time to start looking at, getting out of them or closing part of your positions. Likewise, if you're looking for selling opportunities, well, that indecision candle gave you the first decision or early warning that things were about to tip over. But now here we are just a few days later. Now we're looking at buying opportunities again right now, today on multiple gold pairs as well, and a few of the silver pairs as well. And that just comes about from understanding and reading candles. Why I don't look at the news. So if you are out there trying to decipher why these things happen, looking at news, trading and trying to work out all why's gold and silver suddenly going up and up and up and then suddenly crash? Why is Bitcoin done the same? For me personally, as someone that's been trading the markets for over 20 years as a full time trader, I don't look at the news. Yes, I have a look to see what's happening. I'm aware of what's coming up, that type of thing, purely for knowledge. But does it influence my trading? Not one bit. The reason is, is I can tell everything I need to know to make good, smart, reliable decisions from looking at the charts now that, is applied across all markets and all timeframe charts, and that is where I think we have such an edge in our trading now. Why trading is not risky. A lot of people will look at those massive drops and go, oh my goodness, you know, that's so risky. You know, I could have bought silver $121 and then it dropped to 72. It's so risky. I can't do that. And the point is, is that once you understand risk and you have low and controlled risk on every trade, you're not making those massive losses. You know, you just if you know what you're doing and risk is such an important part of trading or controlling it, both helps your emotions and your bank account. You need to keep your risk low and controlled and equal on every trade. And so all that is happening with those massive drops is it was giving us against the massive uptrends great opportunities to take sell positions on those golds and silvers and bitcoins, etc. over the last little while. Now we're seeing pullbacks and now we're seeing bounces at previous lows, and now we're seeing the candle patterns that are starting to turn bullish in the right part of the chart to give us like opportunities to start bu

Speaker 1 (00:00):
We have seen some massive market moves over the last
few days and a few weeks. Hopefully you've gained from those,
and if you haven't, you need to watch this video.
Let's get into that more right now. Hey, the Traders

(00:22):
is Andrew Mitcham here at the Forest Trading Coach with
weekly video and podcast number six hundred and twenty two. Well,
the moves have been enormous, haven't they. If you've been
looking at like bitcoin, Bitcoin was one hundred and twenty
six thousand dollars just seventeen days ago, then it dropped
to seventy two thousand dollars, a huge drop. Did you

(00:42):
get some of that silver one hundred and twenty one
dollars just three days ago? Then dropped to seventy one
dollars just in three days? Huge? Did you get some
of that gold five five hundred dollars just three days ago?
Right now? Four four hundred dollars in three days? Again,

(01:03):
incredible moves. Hopefully you got some of that movement, and
if you didn't, you need to be asking some questions
because if you don't have a look at say the
gold and silver, have a look at the daily chart
and you'll see at the top of a very very
large uptrend on both markets, there was suddenly a huge
indecision Candle. It was the early warning signal for us

(01:26):
as technical traders that things were coming to an end.
The bullish run was coming to an end. And look
what we saw. Now. Sure not many people could have
seen such a massive, massive drop in such a short
amount of time. That's not really the point. The point
is that if you had seen that indecision Candle and
you still had some buy positions in probably a good

(01:46):
time to start looking at getting out of them or
closing part of your positions. Likewise, if you're looking for
selling opportunities, or that indecision candle gave you the first
decision or early warning that things were about to tip over.
But now here we are just a few days later.
Now we're looking at buying opportunities again right now today
on multiple gold pairs as well, and a few of

(02:08):
the silver pairs as well. And that just comes about
from understanding and reading candles. So if you are out
there trying to decipher why these things happen, looking at
news trading and trying to work out our whise, gold
and silver suddenly gone up and up and up and
then suddenly crash. Why's bitcoin done the same? For me personally,
as someone that's been trading the markets for over twenty

(02:28):
years as a full time trader, I don't look at
the news. Yes, I have a look to see what's happening.
I'm aware of what's coming up that type of thing
purely for knowledge, But does it influence my trading. Not
one bit. The reason is is I can tell everything
I need to know to make good, smart, reliable decisions
from looking at the chats. Now that is applied across

(02:51):
all markets and all time frame charts, and that is
where I think we have such an edge in our
trading now. A lot of people will look at those
massive drops and go, oh my goodness. You know it's
so risky. Yeah, you know. I could have bought silver
one hundred and twenty one dollars and then it dropped
us seventy two. It's so risky. I can't do that.
And the point is is that once you understand risk,

(03:13):
and you have low and controlled risk on every trade,
you're not making those massive losses. You know, you just
if you know what you're doing, and risk is such
an important part of trading or controlling it both helped
your emotions and your bank account. You need to keep
your risk low and controlled and equal on every trade.
And so all that was happening with those massive drops

(03:34):
is it was giving us against the massive up trends,
great opportunities to take cell positions on those golds and
silvers and bitcoins, et cetera. Over the last little while.
Now we're seeing pullbacks, and now we're seeing bounces and
bounces at previous lows. And now we're seeing the candle
patterns that are starting to turn bullish in the right
part of the chart to give us like opportunities to

(03:56):
start buying those markets again and picking up those up
trends that are likely now to follow with the bigger
picture up trend after a pullback. And so that's what
I call a continuation trade. And that's why right now
today we're about to take some certainly some gold trades
and a couple of silver trades, buying them back up again.

(04:17):
So if you're out there either getting scared of these
big moves or not knowing how to take advantage of them,
I really suggest that you spend thirty minutes and jump
onto my masterclass. I'll put the link to that here
if you've not already been on it and have a
look at what we can help our traders with, whether
it's trading by yourself, trading on a prop firm, whatever

(04:39):
it is that you wish to do in order to
look after your financial future, but also have the knowledge
to know what to do if you are they're looking
for a high quality broker, I can highly recommend Blueberry Markets.
They're based in Australia and almost everybody anywhere in the
world can open an account with them. The offer the
MT five trading platform. Awesome platform. You know, Meta Trader

(05:02):
is still one of the most popular trading platforms. It's
free to use. Sure, when you get the demo it's
a bit clunky and a little bit kind of like
strange looking, but you add a few templates and a
few indicators like we provide and everything's just awesome, simple
to use, and I can highly recommend the empty five
platform with Blueberry Markets and up a link to them

(05:24):
as well. If you have any questions about today's topic,
or any conversations topics questions that you have for me
that you'd like me to cover in future videos and
podcasts like this, just send me an email to Andrew
at Theforest Trading Coach dot com and they do come
through to me and I do answer them all personally.
If you're out there trying to figure out when to trade,

(05:46):
look at the candle close. It's the only way you
can really trade if you're a technical trader, and it
just means you know when to look at your charts.
And if you're watching this video, you see the incredible
day we've got here in New Zealand and the incredible
scenery that we have here. You don't need to be
glued to your charts. People that get glued to their
charts and look at like five minute charts and fifteen
minute charts probably not a great idea trade less, take

(06:09):
high quality trades and enjoy your life. That's what we
do and that's what we can help you to do
the same. Any questions, reach out to me and I'll
see this time next week. Life Nat

The night before, she learned the unimaginable – that the husband she knew in the light of day was a different person after dark. This season unpacks Saskia’s discovery of her husband’s secret life and her fight to bring him to justice. Along the way, we expose a crime that is just coming to light. This is also a story about the myth of the “perfect victim:” who gets believed, who gets doubted, and why. We follow Saskia as she works to reclaim her body, her voice, and her life.
