The Brent Oil Performance
2 August 2023 was the last time we had a look at this security. We had our take profits hit and proceeded to the resistance at 87.05. We have now retraced back to the previous target at 84.84. Traders should be looking for a breakout from both the resistance 87.05 and the outer trendline. We will watch this closely and revert with an update.

The BTCUSD Performance
Big Pause on any positions on Bitcoin. We see a stronger US Dollar that has pushed the price down towards the breakout giving us a strong and deep correction. We wait for price action to formulate at this support to give us a further indication of the way forward. Our breakout point at 31816.52 remains in place.
