How to Increase the Chances of winning Online Slot Machines The most obvious difference between online and land-based slot machine games is the obvious physical distinctions in the location of the machines. In the land-based slot machine, the gamer pulls an lever a certain number of times to spin the reels and take home a reward. If a slot spins, no matter how many times you pull the handle or pull the lever, it simply stops and does not count. This is one of the reasons why playing slots in land-based casinos can be more expensive than playing online casinos. Online casinos don’t suffer from this issue because their machines can spin 1000 times before the reels stop. …

This time, everything is different. Investors have adapted to buy the dips, and the rapid rally in the S&P 500 from April to October proved the effectiveness of such a strategy. However, in November, the stock market began sending one alarming signal after another. The first drop of the broad index below the 50-day moving average since May was the first of these signals. Others followed soon after. The Dow Jones has fallen by 4.5% over four trading sessions, marking the most serious sell-off from record highs since 1999. The Magnificent Seven stocks lost 5% of their value in November, with only Alphabet trading in the green. The S&P 500 has gone 14 days without a…

A stronger US dollar, weaker cryptocurrencies, fundamental overvaluation, and excessive attention to technology giants have made the S&P 500 vulnerable to corrections. When the broad stock index sets 36 record highs in 2025, trading above the 50-day moving average since April, and has not declined by 3% or more, caution is warranted. A pullback could occur at any moment, even without visible reasons. Over the past ten days, the S&P 500 has risen by 1.7%, and shares of the Magnificent Seven have increased by 5.2%. In the third quarter, the profits of its constituents are expected to grow by 27%, double the forecasts of Wall Street analysts. It is not surprising th…

Everything is understood in comparison. The higher the S&P 500 climbs, the more alarming warnings come from banks and investment firms, including Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley. Investors often draw parallels to the dot-com crisis and speculate about a bubble that is about to burst. However, the main difference between today's tech giants and the internet companies of the late 20th century is that the former are generating substantial profits. Investors are intently watching developments surrounding artificial intelligence and are buying the dips in the S&P 500. No one wants to wait for the current uptrend to end and a new one to start. The slightest pullback p…

While the cryptocurrency market is experiencing a downturn, with only occasional small corrections, the Ethereum Foundation has introduced the concept of the Ethereum Interoperability Layer. The essence of this initiative is to establish a unified compatibility layer that will integrate all Layer 2 (L2) networks into a cohesive ecosystem. With this layer, users will be able to perform transactions across different L2s directly from their wallets, without the need for bridges or third-party relays. In simple terms, this is a step towards ensuring that all L2s operate as a single Ethereum blockchain. The developers at the Ethereum Foundation are confident that the Intero…

On Thursday, the EUR/USD pair bounced from the 76.4% corrective level at 1.1517 and turned in favor of the euro, while showing absolutely no interesting movements despite a strong news background. Today, the upward movement may continue toward the 61.8% Fibonacci level at 1.1594. A consolidation of the pair below 1.1517 will work in favor of the U.S. dollar and continue decline toward the next 100.0% corrective level at 1.1392. The wave structure on the hourly chart remains simple and clear. The latest upward wave did not break the peak of the previous wave, while the last completed downward wave broke the previous low. Thus, the trend remains "bearish" at the moment. …

Asian markets kick off week with gainsOn Monday, most Asian equity markets ended the session in positive territory. The dollar weakened as investor focus shifted to the US, where the risk of a temporary government shutdown persists. Such a scenario could delay the release of the September jobs report and several other key data points. Washington seeks compromisePresident Donald Trump plans to meet with leaders of both congressional parties on Monday to discuss extending federal funding. Otherwise, the government will face a partial shutdown. This coincides with the introduction of new US tariffs on heavy trucks, pharmaceuticals, and a number of other goods. Seasonal sup…

The market got what it wanted. The Fed executed a hawkish cut, lowering the federal funds rate to 3.75% and signaling a pause in the cycle of monetary easing. However, the central bank did not close the door on further easing. Moreover, Jerome Powell's emphasis on labor market weakness and the Fed's decision-making dependence on data make monetary expansion in 2026 quite likely. This was well received by US stock indices, with the S&P 500 registering its strongest reaction to an FOMC meeting since March, while the Russell 2000 reached a new record high. S&P 500's Reaction to Fed Meetings The stock market benefited from a triple advantage provided by the Fed. No…

Gold plunges by 5% after a record rally. Google and Anthropic are in talks for a multibillion-dollar cloud computing deal. Unilever has postponed the spin-off of its ice cream business due to the US government shutdown. Apple launches updated Vision Pro headset with the M5 chip and shifts production to Vietnam. In this article, we will break down all these events in detail, as well as the trading opportunities they present. Gold suffers biggest five-year drop On Tuesday, the gold market experienced a true seismic shock: gold prices plunged by more than 5% — the worst day since August 2020. After a year-long rally in which gold soared by 60% and hit an all-time high of $4…

At first glance, it may seem logical that the euro should be falling due to the political crisis in France. However, in my opinion, this is not such an important event. The French government has not been dissolved, and replacing prime ministers or resigning from office is not prohibited. For example, why didn't the market react as strongly to the resignation of Adriana Kugler from the Fed or Erika McEntarfer from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics? In my view, these departures are much more significant than yet another change of prime minister in France. It is worth remembering that in the foreign exchange market, the fate of many currencies depends precisely on the doll…

[Litecoin] – [Friday, November 07, 2025] Although the RSI is in the Neutral-Bullish zone, but the two EMAs are still in a Death Cross formation, suggesting that the potential for further weakening still persists in Litecoin. Key Levels: 1. Resistance. 2 : 92.08 2. Resistance. 1 : 89.64 3. Pivot : 87.43 4. Support. 1 : 84.99 5.

Momentum Extension Bias: If the decline continues and breaks below 84.99, Litecoin will further extend its weakening down to 82.78. Invalidation Level / Bias Revis…

When markets are set for a hawkish cut, the chances of a dovish surprise increase. In reality, a reduction in the federal funds rate by 25 basis points to 3.75% is not the most important event on December 10. What will be more interesting for the markets is to observe the updated FOMC economic projections and listen to Jerome Powell's speech. Ahead of the meeting, investors preferred to take a step back. No one wants to take risks. Despite the tepid response of the S&P 500 to several previous Committee meetings, this time could be different. Artificial intelligence, corporate profits, the resilience of the US economy, and expectations for monetary stimulus from the F…

Concerns in the US stock market are out of fashion. Pessimists are missing good trading opportunities, while a plethora of positive news is driving the S&P 500 to new heights. For the first time in history, the broad stock index has touched the 6,800 mark, thanks to impressive corporate earnings, a still-strong economy, and the Federal Reserve's intention to continue its cycle of monetary expansion. Inflation is not a hurdle to this progress. The September figures showed that the CPI is a dog that doesn't bark. Indeed, investors were worried that soaring consumer prices would block significant monetary policy easing in 2026. Two rate cuts by the Fed in 2025 would be …

In finance, there's a saying that a sacred place is never empty. The rotation of securities in investment portfolios is leading to mixed dynamics in stock indices. The Nasdaq Composite is declining, the S&P 500 is inching towards record highs, while the Dow Jones is exhibiting its best performance relative to the S&P 500 since January. Interest in yesterday's leaders is rapidly dwindling, and laggards are transforming from ugly ducklings into beautiful swans. While women are fighting, it's best not to get involved in the brawl. This is also true for technology companies. In November, Google announced its powerful AI model, Gemini 3, which outperformed the latest …

The S&P 500 is gradually losing its key advantages, and those unprepared for corrections are starting to panic. Even the White House's efforts to stabilize the situation are not particularly helping. Yes, thanks to the announcement of a reduction in tariffs on food and agricultural products, the broad stock index managed to close a huge gap down after the opening bell. However, the clouds over bulls continue to thicken. Expectations of monetary stimulus and artificial intelligence technology are the pillars that have allowed the S&P 500 to soar 43% from the April bottom to the October record high. Nevertheless, nothing lasts forever under the moon. After two rate…

The US stock market is driven by two parallel narratives: monetary policy history and the monetization of artificial intelligence. Within the market, there are both skeptics and optimists. The former discuss inflated fundamental valuations and the billions of dollars wasted on AI technologies. The latter view the current decline in the S&P 500 as a healthy correction and an opportunity to establish and increase long positions. For them, the Magnificent Seven is a sacred cow that has generated and will continue to generate money. Unfortunately, nothing lasts forever under the moon. During the dot-com boom in the 1990s, the market also seemed too perfect. In 2000, then…

The rapid rally of American stock indices ahead of Thanksgiving has completely dispelled investor fears. The Federal Reserve is set to cut interest rates, and it will do so aggressively, thanks in part to the influence of Hassett. The US economy is more likely to please than to disappoint. Donald Trump will continue to support the stock market, and the artificial intelligence bubble is no more than a myth. It is no surprise that the S&P 500 is rising, with the Nasdaq Composite showing its best performance since 2008. The good news is that stock indices typically rise after Thanksgiving until the end of the year. The bad news is that they do so less eagerly than befor…

Invest or lose. Companies are ramping up expenditures at a record pace in the race to create AGI, artificial intelligence systems that are smarter than humans. Over the past year, combined spending by Alphabet, Meta Platforms, and Microsoft on AI has increased by $78 billion. It is understandable why technology giants are pushing ahead. After all, falling behind in the race means defeat. However, doubts among investors about whether spending will ever pay off have led them to lock in profits, resulting in a pullback in the S&P 500. Dynamics of technology giants' spending on AI Skeptics point to the limited number of paid subscriptions and the lengthy time required …

No one is ready to take risks. Investors opted to lock in profits ahead of the FOMC meeting, causing the S&P 500 to step back and move away from record highs. The US central bank is expected to lower the federal funds rate by 25 basis points to 3.75%. However, to placate opponents of this decision, Jerome Powell is likely to adopt a hawkish tone. Signals indicating a pause in the monetary expansion cycle could lead to a correction in the broad stock index. The S&P 500 has gotten back into the game after declining in late October to early November, thanks to expectations for easing monetary policy from the Fed in December, which have alleviated fears about a tech …

The stock market has found reasons for optimism, from corporate earnings and merger deals to the de-escalation of trade conflicts and expectations of a federal funds rate reduction. After a brief consolidation, the S&P 500 has resumed the practice of reaching record highs on a daily basis and is currently approaching the previously indicated level of 6,920. Approximately 86% of reporting companies exceeded profit forecasts, while 69% surpassed revenue expectations. This latter figure is the highest since 2021. The deviation of actual data from estimates is 2.4%, significantly higher than the historical average of 0.5%. The financial results of American corporations d…

How do you make the market happy? Take away its favorite toy and then give it back. For the S&P 500, this toy has been the expectation of a Fed rate cut in December. Following the release of the minutes from the October FOMC meeting, these expectations fell to 28%, prompting the broad stock index to undergo a correction. Rumors about Kevin Hassett's imminent appointment as the head of the central bank have spiked the chances of monetary expansion by the end of the year to 85%. It is no surprise that the stock market is up for the third day in a row. Dynamics of Market Expectations Regarding Federal Reserve Monetary Expansion The director of the National Economic Co…

It is necessary to use what works. The market is convinced that the Fed will cut the federal funds rate. Even a hawkish surprise from US inflation in August will not stop the central bank from easing monetary policy. Combined with strong corporate earnings and investor confidence in consumers, this provides grounds to keep buying the dips in the S&P 500, even in the seasonally weak month of September for the broad stock index. In fact, the first month of autumn may not be so bad for equities. According to Bloomberg research, since 1971, the S&P 500 has often risen in September if the Fed cut rates outside of a recession. A typical example was September of last ye…
