You sound like a lunatic.

The Gulf Crisis: A Masterpiece of Hypocrisy, Signed by Two "Premier" Artists
Greetings, readers, and welcome back to this latest update from the theater of Middle Eastern geopolitics, where reality consistently outdoes fiction and peace is merely a backup script.

On stage today: an escalation that borders on the poetic. On one side, we have an Iran that, feeling threatened, decides to threaten its Gulf neighbors in return, promising to strike their family jewels: oil and gas. An act of fraternal friendship that strongly resembles the neighbor who, annoyed by your loud music, responds by cutting the power to the entire building.

On the other side, leading the Israeli counter-offensive, are two figures who deserve a special award for their sheer versatility.

The first is a leader so devoted to national security that he has turned "state secrets" into an art form. Rumor has it, according to gossip, that his personal file contains pages so incendiary about certain past encounters with very young fans that they would make an One Direction album look innocent. A man who fights terrorism with one hand while with the other... well, let's say he tries to hide the evidence. A true strategist: if you can't beat the scandal, make sure you have enough leverage to overshadow anything else.

The second is a defense minister who loves "significant surprises." He probably meant unexpected gifts like explosive drones or multi-warhead missiles, because in this region, the concept of "gift" has been slightly distorted. A man who pursues peace with the same tenacity that a hurricane pursues calm.

And right in the middle of this duel to the death between these two "champions" of morality, the pawns move: natural gas fields are bombed (blame Israel, says Qatar, with the same certainty as a child caught with their hand in the cookie jar), oil prices skyrocket, and the Strait of Hormuz has become more impassable than an IKEA aisle on a Saturday afternoon.

The price of Brent crude, naturally, enjoys the show from the front row, jumping 5% like a tennis player after an ace. The consumers? They pay the ticket, in the form of skyrocketing gasoline prices, to witness this opera where the tenors sing of war and the conductors, on both sides, lead the orchestra with the baton of slaughter.

The international community? It condemns, denounces, and appeals. Then, with realism, someone seizes the opportunity to do a little shopping: the United States, with one hand strikes, and with the other eases sanctions on Venezuela. Because, deep down, if the world is going up in flames, you might as well make sure you have enough firewood to burn... or rather, enough oil to pump.

And while the leaders exchange blows as if in a video game, people die. In Tehran, in Tel Aviv, in Beirut. Over thirteen hundred Iranians, fourteen Israelis, a million Lebanese displaced. But these are just technical details, pawns sacrificed on the chessboard of "national security" and "defense of vital interests" by two gentlemen who, in the end, share the same, identical, sordid script.

Trump and bloody fuckenyahu Netanyahu... Mafia...
Want to make this world a fireball...
First they attacked vanzuella for oil and supplying directly to israel... Nato doesnt want to go with trump... but he non sense bloody what does he want to do with the beauty of this world...

Said who? Orange clown?

Sell EURUSD

Word in the Mainstream Media is that Martians attacked Iran's oil facilities in the middle of US(Israel) - Iran war. Buy SpaceX shares in private sales if they let you attend.

Because this news will cause oil prices to rise, which means increased demand for the dollar, since oil is traded primarily in dollars. Increased demand = higher dollar = lower gold prices. The world needs cash, not gold.

I see a lot of people are shouting buy gold, then are confused why gold is going down.

1. The US has been hitting military facilities only, not oil infrastructure, the US is avoiding total oil destruction...for now. They know that this would cause a global economic shock.
2. The market thinks this is a controlled escalation, but as we all know war is chaotic.
3. The dollar is strengthening, bad for gold.
4. Yields are rising, so money will migrate where it earns money.

This looks like positioning, look at the H4 chart you can see where gold stopped. So watch gold here.

OK so what to watch

1.Dollar starts to weaken
2.Yields stop rising
3.Fed expectations change

So rising oil prices is being anticipated as rising inflation concerns, which means rates will remain higher. I would watch the M30 chart, especially as we go into the end of session.

The comments about oil and gold are great from a psychological aspect. You are attempting to trade in a market of confusion while thinking you can capitalize. This is big boy territory and you have to hit and run. The master manipulators (the sharks) are the primary traders and you won't be able to outsmart the same teams who you b*tch about that cause 'stop hunts'. Be careful but trade your chart, don't guess...and ANY news can blow your position.

Just know before a price is gonna be shorted, manipulation takes place on a run UP. Same goes before (gold) can have a run up, it must fall DOWN so positions can be accumulated. Clearly gold should be going up so why isn't it? Either way, zoom out on a Daily chart and you will see it has retraced to the 100 ema, Wkly chart has pulled back to (almost) the 21 day ema. No big deal...accumulation.

Now about the news. Who can be surprised this hasn't already happened? If a country's main export is salt, you hit their salt mines. Iran's only commodity, that also fuels their global terrorist operations, is oil (along with cooperating/sympathetic governments like the US Democrats obviously) so you hit it. If hit with tactical precision, it can easily survive and be rebuilt in the coming months.

I would ask- who attacked? Because the result will be either oil gas going up or buying more from Russia.... Both I think have better alternatives- so which country is so smart to attack Iran's oil facilities - let's see ....

Buy gold

Expect the stolen/looted gas, on the Palestians shores to be burning soon:
- Leviathan platform

BREAKING!!

great, just great, wasn't this thing over?

This situation needs a peace broker.

It all depends - because such facilities are expensive and stop in their work is costly but ... Depends what happened and what was damaged. Maybe it's a false flag or just daje attack?

how facist the govt. is that they want to be ruined along with their citizen

We all know the media is lying 100% of the time........fake headline, fake headline, fake headline, fake headline.....

Hilarious that the filthy, left-wing US news media is using Iran's own state media as 'evidence' that something actually happened.....absolutely hilarious and beyond corrupt.

sell gbpusd

Buy gold

When FED says, "Because of the impending energy crisis and subsequent inflation driven factors arising, because of a nonsensical US war on Iran, we might reconsider interest rate cut schedule...what should that do to the price of BTC...which is btw in it's bear cycle anyway?

Why are many buying gold...it's not like the norm where gold used to rally during chaos...this time precious metals are falling as if there are no investors(but there are)...HARD!!!...so if the market is bullish be bullish if the market is bearish be bearish...trade what you see not what you expect to see

volatility till fomc

I sure hope so. It’s been so bearish lately.

Don blindly buy gold. our interest rates are still high lol

Buying gold

False flag by who exactly? whats the motive behind the false flag?

I can't wait to see

Inpo Core PPI gusy?

Sell gbpusd

y gold going donnnnn

Wow, they really built it already?

They can thank Arabia and the Gulf countries for that, otherwise they were the third world

Because they moved money into Oil, and it will go up as long as there is war with Iran. Low volume, not much money into, and there is some manipulation. But they are now taking profits from stocks, gold and silver and putting money and buying oil.

This whole oil story, to me, only benefits the big families that control everything and the oil companies. Lately, the barrel has dropped a lot, so there was a lack of money for future projects that they need.

I think gold will go up a little

Buying gold

Sell gold

Why is gold dumping from this news

Sell gbpusd

Buy the gold ppi news

Why gold is fucking down

Buy oil

lmao don’t buy any gold before the news

4925 is a good target to buy gold?

Sell EURUSD

Buy gold 100%

So the gold is sell or buy?

I sold at tis price!!! ))))

imagine poor people attacking civilian infrastructure that's how they wage war

EVERYTHING

Now the right timing to buy Gold Technical and fundamental aligned. As you can see dollar index hits resistance already. And later they will announce to cut 1 Basis point..
