August 18 Wanxin Midday Analysis:
Several overseas investment banks have lowered their gold price forecasts, and the market is once again taking a wait-and-see stance on the future interest-rate path. The U.S. Dollar Index stabilized and rebounded slightly. With few strong short-term bullish catalysts, bullish momentum has slowed, and the market has entered a period of pullback and consolidation.

Hourly highs are gradually moving lower, with clear short-term pressure. After breaking below the key intraday support zone, prices continued to weaken, consolidating slightly at low levels with a w

8.18 Gold Midday Review
The early low-level long setup matched price action perfectly. After gold retested support, it rebounded slightly, with the range-bound move unfolding as expected.
Technical analysis: The 30-minute and 1-hour Bollinger Bands continue to narrow and flatten, while gold consolidates around the middle band; RSI keeps moving within the neutral zone, the overall bullish trend remains intact, and there is no strong short-term directional bias as sideways consolidation continues.
Resistance: 4428 and 4440; support: 4395 and 4385.
Coco’s Recommendation: Favor trend-following l

For Beijing Kree, he chose to buy during the call auction on the second day after a limit-up move. When he saw the limit-up open, it usually meant that market demand for the stock was extremely strong.
The buying pressure clearly exceeded the selling pressure, enabling the stock price to break through the limit-up restriction. Therefore, on May 22, he unusually chose to increase his position and then exited at a profit the next day～

Damn, Pinzhun Laser listed on the STAR Market today, opening above ¥1,000—up 5x straight out of the gate!
At this price, the profit from one winning IPO lot (500 shares) is as high as ¥456.6k, making it the new stock with the highest per-lot profit this year!
Damn it, if anyone says my A-shares market has no wealth effect again, I’ll be the first to object!

SNDK
After exiting my long positions last night, I went to sleep with no position. Although I missed this round of downside and didn't catch the short trade, I took it calmly.
The market never runs out of opportunities, so there's no need to feel anxious about missing one.
I'm currently not keen on shorting SNDK. I plan to wait for a pullback to around 1680 or 1650 before considering a long entry. Friday will most likely bring some good returns.
Good opportunities come from waiting, not chasing. Wait for the right volatility—staying flat is also a strategy.

The technology path we chose when we started our company was completely wrong. Not only did we choose the wrong path—we didn’t even know how to do it right.
That day was a big day for me. I had a few hundred yuan in my pocket, so I went to an electronics mall and bought three textbooks, then brought them back to the company and handed them to the engineers. We taught ourselves by following the textbooks, and that led to where we are today.
As long as you dare to face reality, and as long as you’re still able to learn, the technology itself isn’t actually important. If something absolutely has

The historical cycle's peak in December 2017 led to the bottom of that cycle in December 2018
It took a total of 13 months
The peak in November 2021 to the bottom in November 2022 likewise took 13 months
This cycle began at the peak in October 2025, and August is already its 11th month
