***Monday March 2nd*** CFTC COT Report is here!!! #AUD short seems the way to go!!! *** PORTFOLIO HOLDINGS =>

General Notes:
Had some issues with malware over the weekend so was dealing with that as opposed to working on the blog. Will have updates in soon! #gbpusd got out of that at the perfect time, reacting from the weekly supply zone now -> LINK. A possible scenario on GOLD happening right now, where the trend line broke to hit supply and continue a deeper drop. Take a look  here -> LINK. Finally some news to propel price in all the majors. Where did the momentum move towards? Well, price is moving in the direction the portfolio has been suggesting these last couple weeks! So congrats to those banking from the info provided within this blog! You guys are very lucky to get such accurate detailed info to base your trades off of, if I may so say! #GBPUSD continues on up as i write this and target is in clear sight! Posted a couple videos, one on GOLD and the other breaking down the Supply & Demand for the majors! Been working on some futures charts. Opened a GOLD position but didn't give out any alerts on it -> Link. Check it out! Patience, Patience, Patience!!! Trade reviews are so helpful in looking back to see what I missed and why I missed it. You have to become better with each lesson or else you'll make the same mistakes over and over again. The COT report shows that the Hedge Funds are adding reducing long positions on the USDJPY, EURUSD and GBPUSD. You can have it all if you trade like the institutions do. Money, freedom, the ability to travel anywhere at any time, nice homes and fast cars. All it takes is dedication and hard work!  Don't you just love trading? You can be anywhere in the world and still be able to make $$$, but only if you trade alongside the institutions with Supply & Demand!

Magic Ingredient:
If there is any one thing that has added more to my success than anything else, it is understanding how
important it is to time the US Dollar with your trades. The key to my strategy is to time the $USD's GREEN and RED zones with the GREEN and RED zones from the setups. If the US Dollar and the $USDCAD, $USDCHF or $USDJPY are both entering their same coloured zones at around the same time or if the US Dollar and the $EURUSD, $GBPUSD, $AUDUSD or $NZDUSD are both entering the opposite coloured zones then the probability of the setup working out is highest. 
SHADED GREEN ZONES = Strong Buy Zones
SHADED RED ZONES = Strong Sell Zones

SUPPLY & DEMAND ZONES
Take note of the GREEN demand zones and RED supply zones mapped out below. These are the areas of interest for me because this is where there is a great deal of demand to fill buy orders and supply to fill sell orders from the institutions. 


$USD OVERVIEW (THE BIG PICTURE)
Perception of Monetary Standing: HAWKISH 
--> $USD broke through supply and has room to head up even higher.

$USD OVERVIEW (DAILY)
--> US Dollar uptrend line broke and created a supply zone. Could see a drop from here.
