Chart of the Week: Brent Crude Oil

22/03/2026 by D.M. in Chart of the Week

Weekly appointment with the most followed charts in the world.

Inevitable to talk about it.

Bloomberg covers it with every new explosion in Iran or at nearby oil facilities, it’s on everyone’s lips, and it directly affects investors, market operators, and anyone who needs to fill a tank.

Volatility is high, wild… but with a systematic approach we can dare to analyze it.

Let’s look at the possible scenarios.

A necessary premise: volatility is so high that even if someone had the right trade in mind and got the timing wrong by just one or two weeks, the pain could be very significant.

Chart of the Week: S&P500 index

08/03/2026 by D.M. in Chart of the Week

Weekly appointment with the world’s most watched charts.

After weeks of testing, retesting, and holding, the MA20W finally gave way. The S&P 500 closed at 6,740.02, more than 100 points below the MA20W. The entire candle body sits under it. Since our first S&P 500 Chart of the Week in W02, we defined two conditions for a bearish trigger: a weekly close below the MA20W and a clear price signal. Both are now met.

The volatility indicator reacted sharply from its historical floor. The fear indicator jumped to 85%. Bears dominate the weekly reading nearly 2.6 to 1.

The framework spoke. Let’s read it.

Chart of the Week: S&P500 index

21/02/2026 by D.M. in Chart of the Week

Weekly appointment with the world's most watched charts.

Another week of tension on the MA20W. Prices tested it, bounced off it, and once again left us watching the same level. The volatility indicator keeps pointing higher - but history says don't get too comfortable. Here's the breakdown.

Once again, the MA20W proved its worth. Let's break it down.

Chart of the Week: Gold

15/02/2026 by D.M. in Chart of the Week

Weekly appointment with the world’s most watched charts.

This week, the gold medal for Chart of the Week goes to Gold.

Everyone’s talking about tensions in precious metals, but Gold is telling a story that’s extremely different from Silver’s.

The weekly medium-long term chart is “ugly” to look at because of the mammoth candle from 3 weeks ago that makes almost all previous ones look insignificant.

But aesthetics aside, what really happened technically on the weekly chart—has the trend reversed like on Silver?

The answer comes from the moving averages.

Chart of the Week: Bitcoin

08/02/2026 by D.M. in Chart of the Week

Weekly appointment with the world’s most watched charts.

This week, the gold medal for Chart of the Week has been amply earned by Bitcoin.

Between desperate influencers preaching “the more it drops the better, smart money buys the dip,” haters who can’t wait to see BTC go to zero, we position ourselves in the middle—or rather far to the side, to avoid contamination—and try to show what the numbers say, without any bias.

We’re not fans.

We stand—we try to stand—with whoever wins.

If you’re a permabull or a permabear, don’t continue reading.

This isn’t for you.

31/01/2026 by D.M. in Chart of the Week

Weekly appointment with the world's most watched charts.

Bloomberg called it the "worst week since May" after the dollar tumbled to four-year lows. Financial Times noted the index hit levels not seen since March 2022. The Wall Street Journal cited "policy nightmare" fears driving the sell-off. Then Friday happened: Kevin Warsh nomination sent the dollar spiking, gold and silver crashing. The reversal was violent.

This is the narrative. Now let's see what the numbers say.

Chart of the Week: S&P 500 Index

25/01/2026 by D.M. in Chart of the Week

Weekly appointment with the world’s most watched charts.

The S&P 500 came under pressure at the beginning of the week — the weekly low marked a -2.2% drop from the prior week’s close. But the bulls came back, and by Friday’s close at 6,915.61, the weekly loss was just -0.42%.

Nothing happened? Let’s see what the market told us.
