Fibonacci Confluence on FX Pairs
MongiIG posted a blog entry in IG Community Blog,
Italian mathematician Leonardo Fibonacci is credited with finding the Fibonacci sequence in the 13th century, hence the name ‘Fibonacci’.

The Week Ahead On The Markets
MongiIG posted a blog entry in Market News,
UK data takes centre stage with CPI, employment data and retail sales. In addition, US PPI will also be worth watching. After the latest US CPI figure this week’s Fed minutes might not add anything else, especially given how some regional Fed chiefs have issued statements on the outlook for rates. Earnings season in the US is winding down, but Standard Chartered and Natwest earnings mark the beginning of reporting season for UK banks.

Is Lyft On the Road to Success or Speed Bumps Ahead?
MongiIG posted a blog entry in Market News,
At $44 per share, Lyft, Inc. (LYFT) is a far cry from its summer 2019 debut high of $88.60. However, things may be turning around for LYFT shareholders. By the end of 2019, LYFT seemed to be shrugging off the post-IPO lows, pushing back above $50 by February of 2020. Naturally, the pandemic took its toll on LYFT, slumping the stock to a low of $14.56 by mid-March.

How Risky is Shorting a Market with Futures?
MongiIG posted a blog entry in IG Community Blog,
One of the most frightening sights in trading is the infinity symbol that appears next to the potential loss on a position that is short the underlying market. Selling futures, calls, and even shares of stock short can give you both the ability to profit from a market moving lower and the theoretical chance of losing multiples of your money if the market’s price approaches infinity.
