26 Aug: Gold/DXY Ratio

25 Aug: Bitcoin / Crypto

Bitcoin is a type of cryptocurrency. There are no physical bitcoins, only balances kept on a public ledger that everyone has transparent access to. All bitcoin transactions are verified by a massive amount of computing power. Bitcoins are not issued or backed by any banks or governments, nor are individual bitcoins valuable as a commodity.

Bitcoin is commonly abbreviated as “BTC.”

13 Aug: WTI Weekly

West Texas Intermediate (WTI) is a light, sweet crude oil that serves as one of the main global oil benchmarks.
