  Bull And Bear Flags Reveal Where Price Could Move Next ~ Technical Analysis

  Aug 18, 202614 minS1

  Technical Analysis Series Battle Bank Free Newsletter Technical Analysis for Beginners Travel Channel In this episode, I break down exactly how I recognize these patterns and determine whether they have enough probability for me to put money on the line. Using Coca-Cola stock ticker KO, I start with a five-day 7% decline that developed into a strong bear flag and explain why I generally want at least 65% confidence before taking a trade, with 70% representing a strong setup and 75% being about as good as these patterns get. I also show you how I use RSI and MACD alongside price action to determine when a flag is maturing and why I prefer roughly a 90-degree angle between the initial move and consolidation. I demonstrate how I calculate potential breakout targets using the flagpole, compare daily and intraday timeframes, and distinguish flags from pennants. I also explain how these patterns can appear sequentially during strong trends, why I avoid chasing setups when RSI reaches extremes, and how I use the 78.6% Fibonacci retracement as my cutoff for determining when a bull or bear flag is no longer valid. Key Insights In This Episode ✅ Strong bull and bear flags can offer roughly 70% confidence, while 75% setups are considered rare. ✅ Steve requires at least 65% confidence before putting money behind a technical setup. ✅ Coca-Cola's 7% five-day decline provides the episode's clearest bear flag example. ✅ RSI and MACD help confirm whether momentum supports a bull or bear flag breakout. ✅ Multiple timeframes can expose flag and pennant structures hidden on the daily chart. ✅ A move beyond the 78.6% Fibonacci retracement invalidates Steve's flag setup.

  Brent Jumps 7.8% As XLE Gains 7.7% And Oil Signals More Upside ~ Monday Market Moves

  Aug 16, 202629 minS1

  Free Newsletter: https://stevebarton.substack.com/ Technical Analysis for Beginners: https://stevebarton.gumroad.com/l/TechnicalAnalysisforBeginners Travel Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@inittowinittravel/featured Recording Date 8-14-2026. The S&P 500 gained 0.4% and looks like it may be breaking out of another bullish pennant, with a longer term measured target potentially reaching 8,200 to 8,300. At the same time, I see the U.S. dollar looking increasingly vulnerable while M2 money supply has expanded roughly 50% since COVID, which keeps monetary debasement front and center for me. Gold gained 0.9% and I believe the $3,950 area has become a major floor, although I expect some short-term cooling after the breakout. Silver gained 2.5%, but resistance inside its parallel channel has me leaning sideways to lower before the next bigger move. Moving deeper into commodities, copper gained 0.3% and continues to respect a remarkably clean parallel channel, while uranium gained 0.9% and I believe its weak summer seasonality may finally be behind us. The biggest action came from energy, with WTI jumping 6.9%, Brent climbing 7.8%, and XLE surging 7.7%, and I still see room for oil to push higher if these bull flag setups continue working. Natural gas gained 2%, thermal coal rose 3.1%, met coal climbed 4.4%, and the coal ETF gained 3.7%, giving us several energy charts that are beginning to look constructive again. Platinum slipped 0.2% and palladium fell 3.8%, while nickel dropped 1.1% even though its developing inverse head and shoulders keeps my bias pointed higher for next week. I finish by looking at PICK and the major miners including Glencore, BHP, Rio Tinto, and Freeport McMoRan, where the short-term setup looks more cautious despite the potential strength developing underneath individual commodities. Key Insights in this episode ✅ Oil WTI jumped 6.9%, Brent 7.8%, and XLE 7.7%, keeping the energy trend bullish. ✅ Gold Gold rose 0.9%, with key support near $4,225 to $4,250 and a floor around $3,950. ✅ Uranium Uranium gained 0.9%, while Sprott's uranium trust traded at a 7.5% discount. ✅ Silver Silver climbed 2.5%, but channel resistance keeps my short term bias cautious. ✅ Coal And Gas Natural gas rose 2%, while met coal gained 4.4%, showing improving energy momentum. ✅ S&P 500 And Dollar The S&P 500 gained 0.4%, while the DXY stayed flat and looks vulnerable near its 200 day moving average.

  Rick Rule's 1,500% Upside Bet Has a 50% Chance of Failure ~ Rule Classroom Plus

  Aug 14, 202656 minS1

  Rick Rule, President and CEO of Rule Investment Media, joins me on The Rule Classroom Plus, hosted by Rule Investment Media. Rule Classroom (Free) https://ruleclassroom.com/share/-ztDnefsS5h6MTkD?utm_source=manual Rule Classroom Plus (2 Free Months) https://ruleclassroom.com/share/--qqlFVftepbST8a?utm_source=manual Recording Date 8-13-2026. In this episode, Rick challenges investors to stop confusing price with value and explains why a rising resource market can actually be inconvenient when you are still accumulating quality assets. We discuss why patience and compounding matter, why three-to-five-year investment horizons are more realistic than expecting results in weeks, and why investors owning dozens of companies without understanding their underlying value are putting themselves at a major disadvantage. Rick then applies that framework to copper, lithium, gold, silver, uranium, and oil opportunities. I also ask Rick to dig into specific companies and situations our audience is watching. We cover Southern Copper's leverage to copper, lithium royalty risks, Fortuna Mining, Banyan Gold versus Freegold Ventures, and Pan American Silver's enormous optionality in Argentina and Guatemala. Rick weighs Mogotes Metals, ISO Energy, uranium restart economics at Lotus Resources, Australian silver miners, Hannan Metals' asymmetric exploration opportunity, and Venezuela's oil challenges. We finish with his warning about America's enormous fiscal liabilities, his view that substantial financial-system changes are likely, and why successful resource investing ultimately comes back to valuation, patience, management quality, political risk, and understanding exactly why you own a company. Key Insights In This Episode ✅ Price and value matter more than short-term moves in a rising resource market. ✅ Oil, copper, uranium, and gold theses may need three to five years to play out. ✅ Pan American Silver holds major upside through its large Argentina and Guatemala silver assets. ✅ Direct lithium extraction could disrupt hard-rock lithium economics and future valuations. ✅ Hannan Metals offers asymmetric potential with 50% downside versus 1,000%–1,500% upside. ✅ Massive US fiscal liabilities could eventually force significant changes to the financial system.

  John Polomny Says Copper Could Hit $12 as the AI Bubble Bursts

  Aug 13, 202631 minS1

  John Polomny, founder of Actionable Intelligence and an experienced resource-market investor focused on commodities, energy, and macroeconomic trends, joins me to examine the forces reshaping global markets. John's YouTube John's Substack Recording Date 8-12-2026. In this episode, John explains why disruptions through the Strait of Hormuz extend far beyond crude oil into LNG, aluminum and fertilizer, while alternative pipelines and overland routes can only partially offset lost shipping capacity. We discuss oil-stock drawdowns, China's role in suppressing near-term pressure on energy markets, and John's broader thesis that mounting U.S. debt, persistent deficits and declining geopolitical reach point toward a major restructuring of the global economic order. I also dig into John's hard-asset strategy as we examine the nearly 50% expansion in M2 since COVID, rising long-term Treasury yields and why he expects policymakers eventually to turn toward yield-curve control and financial repression. John then makes the case for copper despite calling the AI infrastructure boom a bubble. He believes an AI bust could trigger a recession and temporarily push copper toward $3.50–$4.00, but constrained mine supply and electrification could ultimately drive prices toward $10–$12. We finish with John's framework for taking profits, sizing mining positions and using extreme resource-stock volatility instead of fearing it. Key Insights In This Episode ✅ Hormuz disruptions threaten oil, LNG, aluminum, and fertilizer. ✅ U.S. debt and deficits strengthen the hard-asset thesis. ✅ Yield curve control could return as bond yields rise. ✅ The AI data-center buildout is a major capital bubble. ✅ Copper could reach $10–$12 per pound this decade. ✅ Mining stocks require disciplined profit-taking and position sizing.

  Justin Huhn Warns the 2030s Uranium Supply Gap Could Send Prices Higher

  Aug 12, 202631 minS1

  Justin Huhn, founder of Uranium Insider and one of the uranium sector's most closely followed market specialists, joins me to break down the supply, demand, pricing, and investment signals shaping today's nuclear fuel market. Uranium Insider Newsletter Rule Symposium 2026 Recording Date 8-12-2026. In this episode, Justin explains why the uranium market could remain roughly 20 to 25 million pounds undersupplied this year, with mine production near 175 million pounds versus roughly 204 to 205 million pounds of reactor demand. We discuss why the real story isn't today's spot market but utility contracting for deliveries three to six years into the future, where long-term prices are approaching $100 per pound and some contracts are already being completed in triple digits. Justin and I also examine whether the summer sell-off in uranium stocks has finally bottomed and why another 5% to 10% pullback could create a buying opportunity. We discuss investor sentiment, ETF flows, uranium's connection to the AI data-center boom, and nuclear reactor life extensions. Justin breaks down Cameco's Don Lake exploration potential, Global Atomic's financing challenges at Dasa in Niger, and the outlook for X-energy. We also explore the SMR race involving GE Vernova, TerraPower, Westinghouse, Holtec, BWXT, and Rolls-Royce, while explaining why investors need to watch both spot and long-term uranium prices. Key Insights In This Episode ✅ Uranium faces a 20 to 25 million pound supply deficit. ✅ Long-term uranium contracts are already reaching triple digits. ✅ Uranium stocks may have already hit their summer bottom. ✅ Another 5% to 10% pullback could create a buying opportunity. ✅ AI data centers are strengthening the long-term nuclear demand story. ✅ SMRs are emerging as a major growth catalyst for nuclear energy.
