Chart Summit 2020 is officially in the books. What an amazing time we had. Wow!
The videos of all the presentations are now up and you can go to ChartSummit.com and stream them for FREE!
As we always like to do here after Chart Summit, Steve Strazza and I sat down to discuss what we just witnessed. This was one of the most amazing list of speakers I've ever seen at a Financial Conference. I can't even believe we were able to pull this off! Plus, we raised over $50,000 in donations, on the first day alone, to help fight coronavirus. Thank you to everyone who attended and donated! Also, big shoutout to Traders4ACause for helping us choose the organizations we're donating to and collecting all the money. We could not have done this without you!
With that said, we were a bit cautious about buying the potential breakouts in USD/INR and JPY/INR until we got confirmation, but we've seen some solid follow-through over the last two days.
This post will outline how to approach getting involved in the trade if you're not already.
There are some interesting moves happening in the Indian Rupee, so let's take a look and update our risk management levels and targets.
Here's the US Dollar/Indian Rupee pair on a longer-term basis. What's clear from the weekly chart is that our thesis remains intact. As long as prices are above 69, then the path of least resistance is still higher.
In last week's Chart of the Week, we wrote about our bullish outlook on Gold and followed it up with a deep dive on the entire Precious Metals space, which included a number of trade ideas to express our thesis. This week, we have a table that helps provide a different perspective on its recent price action but arrives at the same bullish conclusion.
The shiny metal has gotten a lot of attention lately as it currently sits around its highest level in seven years.
After about a 9% surge off of this month's lows, we'd expect prices to consolidate in the near-term. But after that, we're betting on new all-time highs for Gold in the coming quarters as long as prices are above last year's highs near 1,560. Here's how we see it.
There is a lot going on in the market right now, not just in the U.S. but globally. The intermarket relationships between Bonds, Gold and the US Dollar are having a major impact on equities.
January is a month that gives us a lot more information than most other months throughout the year. We have the data now that we can use to help us identify primary trends.
Volatility is picking up. Daily swings are getting larger. I’ve seen this story before.
We discuss all of this and a lot more.
This is the video recording of the February 2020 Conference Call.

You guys know that I just tell it like it is. I don't care what happens. The stock market can double or can get cut in half. Gold can go to zero tomorrow or to 10,000/oz and I won't care. I'm too old to worry about the economic or social implications of market moves. Been there, done that and it doesn't help. We have to look at everything as objectively as possible.
Now, with that said, I have some thoughts that some of you may not appreciate. But I'm not here to tell you what you want to hear. I'm here to tell you what I'm seeing right? So bear with me.
This week on the podcast I'm thrilled to have Quint Tatro join me as our guest. I've been following his work for a long time and have always appreciated his technical approach to managing portfolios at his advisory firm Joule Financial. This was a great conversation where Quint walks us through how he got to Technical Analysis in the first place and how he applies those methods on a daily basis. We went over the overall stock market and how he wants to overweight International Stocks and Emerging markets heading into 2020. He also likes Gold bigger picture here and the mining stocks that come a long with it. I really enjoyed this one. Give it a listen!
As we head into 2020, we start from scratch with our Q4 playbook and outline our thoughts on every asset class and our plan to profit in the quarter (and year) ahead.
Part 1 of this playbook will cover our macro view, touching on Equities, Commodities, Currencies, and Rates.
Part 2 of this playbook will delve deeper into Indian Equities, going sector by sector to identify the trends that matter.
Part 3 of this playbook will outline the individual stocks we want to be buying and selling within the context of today's environment.
