A topside breach / close above this threshold is needed to suggest a more significant low...

EUR/USD bears took another step forward to start the week and at this point the structure on the four-hour chart remains clean, with a fresh lower-low to go with the recent build of lower-highs. The weekly chart looks similarly toppy as the pair is now working on its fourth consecutive weekly loss, following the shooting star formation that showed up in...
It's a fast start to the week for the FX market and the U.S. Dollar recovery has shifted into another gear. CPI data headlines this week's economic calendar and that can certainly carry some punch, but the past two weeks have been big for USD/JPY with rate meetings out of both Japan and the U.S., with the net being a massive move in the pair after the test at...
Nasdaq 100 futures have gapped higher upon the Asia market open, leaving them sitting above the important 200-day moving average. With momentum indicators like RSI (14) and MACD generating bullish signals, it’s an environment that favours buying dips and topside breaks.
However, the coast is not entirely clear for bulls with the price struggling to take out the...
EUR/USD lost a really big level this week when bears pushed through the 1.1275 Fibonacci level. This is the 61.8% retracement of the 2021-2022 major move, and that price was the swing high in 2023. More importantly for the past three weeks that level was support for EUR/USD, both before and after the failed run at the 1.1500 handle.
This move has been a big part...
USD/JPY has been tricky this year as the pair has brewed several bear traps and there's even been some bull traps along the way. Trading breakouts in a market like that can be even more frustrating than usual, as a case in point the 140.00 test from a few weeks ago was a brutal false breakout that then led to a 500+ pip reversal.
Last week's Bank of Japan...
This week has been the third consecutive week of gains for DXY and this comes in stark contrast to the bearish trend that drove price in early-April trade. This week was of course a lift from the FOMC rate decision, and next week brings inflation back to center-stage with the Tuesday release of CPI.
In DXY, we've only seen a mere 23.6% retracement of the 2025...
Over the past two trading sessions, oil has gained more than 4.5%, and is once again approaching the psychological barrier of $60 per barrel. This recent bullish movement persists despite OPEC+’s clear stance on increasing supply in June and the International Energy Agency’s (IEA) cautious outlook on global oil demand for the remainder of the year. As such, it...
Based on the fact that equity markets have surged higher amid trade optimism, one would have expected gold to head lower. Well, it did fall in the last couple of days but it was trading near the session highs at the time of writing, up more than 1.1% on the session. The US dollar had weakened after staging a rally the day before, while the situation between India...
Dow futures cleared not only the 200DMA on Thursday but also downtrend resistance dating back to the record highs set in February, suggesting a new trend may now be underway. While the initial rejection at 41787 warrants some caution, with momentum indicators swinging into bullish territory, there’s enough here to consider long setups heading into this weekend’s...
USD/CAD rebounded off the lower parallel of the March downtrend with a breakout of the weekly opening-range extending into pivotal resistance.
Support now rests with the low-day close (LDC) / 61.8% retracement of the December 2023 advance / monthly open at 1.3778/98- a break / close below this threshold would be needed to mark downtrend resumption towards the...
The U.S. index has been gaining more than 2% in recent trading sessions, and the bullish bias has remained intact since the Federal Reserve’s decision during yesterday’s session.
