Trading Summary Notes for Thursday, 6/19/17:
- Bitcoin steady in the middle ($3,000-$2,000) after big sell off
- If anyone is still short it might be time to re-think that position
- Bitcoin MAY be "re-grouping" for another leg up
- Raise near term buy target on bitcoin to $2250-$2300
- Gold suffering from last week's FED outlook (slow growth, weak inflation)
- However, gold may benefit from interest rates not increasing as previously forcast
- Gold close BELOW $1240 would be bearish.
- Hold gold for now.
