Using Comparisons as indicators?

After sitting in on one of scheplick live streams last night. It got me thinking about starting a discussion with the community on tools used outside of the conventional methods. Comparisons, or using other instruments to calculate/forecast other aspects of your trading.

Sure we can use things like Interest rates or 30 year bonds, take a measure of curves in the Dow Jones. But what tools - pairs - crosses or instruments do you find interesting and why?

In the crypto world - Bitcoin is changing the dynamic & I can't stress enough - it can't and will not keep moving up at 90-degrees. So how does it interact with the Dow, SPX or Gold? Be great to get your thoughts and opinions here on the topic. Share ideas, regardless of the tool, cross or instrument.

See some examples below;
Silver to the Dow Jones

The Fed's Balance sheet - this is interesting in its own right.

How about Gold to the Dow - take a look at the stochastic level

Now overly gold as a comparison.

Then you have the US500 (SPX) compared with Gold

You can use this to get a multiplier of the neutral cash ratio

Then overlay with the calculation

Take a look at some crypto - Bitcoin & SPX

Bitcoin to Gold

And Bitcoin to the DJI (Dow Jones)

As I said, it would be fascinating to get ideas & opinions - where you use crosses like this, why you find them interesting.

Have a great weekend!
