With a couple of events likely to impact CAD/JPY this week, we’re closely watching to see how it reacts around the pivotal level it rebounded towards this week. Whilst this week’s BOC meeting is flagged as a risk-event for CAD crosses in general, ongoing trade talks between the US and China could leave its mark on CAD/JPY. […]

Facebook shares (NASDAQ:FB) are bearish. The bearish trend has been in place since the last several months, and this is a trend that is expected to continue in 2019. The ADX period 14 is slightly above the level 20, meaning the present momentum in the market is not great. The DM- is above the DM+, […]

We had strongly suspected that volatility was brewing for USD/JPY, but yesterday’s explosive moves surpassed our expectations. With a high-low range spanning nearly 4% it was its most volatile session since November 2016 (when Trump was elected), most of which was achieved within 15 minutes and kicked off with a -1.75% decline in under 60 seconds. […]

Santa’s rally took another slap to the face yesterday with the SP&500 closing firmly beneath the 2018 low. Currently trading -9.2% lower amid its worst month since February, the odds of a turnaround look bleak to say the least. We’ve been tracking the top of the S&P500 for a while and, whilst it currently lags the ferocity […]

We see a potential topping pattern on USD/JPY which is eerily similar to one last December which resulted in a 700-pip decline. So, with a highly anticipated FOMC meeting just hours away, it’s worth keeping an eye on which way this one breaks. The weekly chart shows that USD/JPY bulls are struggling to overcome the […]

Here’s the market outlook for the week: EURUSD Dominant bias: Bearish This is a bear market, although the bearishness is not that strong. Price has been going downwards gradually, targeting the support lines at 1.1300, 1.1250 and 1.1200. These targets may be reached soon, but price may not go seriously below them as a strong […]

With momentum picking up towards the 2018 highs, there’s 200 pips of clear space if we see a breakout above them. And if we take the longer-term bullish trend into account, a break above the 2017 high isn’t out of the question.

Volatility remains high, but a bullish reversal near support may provide a bounce over the near-term. Having ‘only’ fallen over 12% from its high, the S&P500 is yet to breach the -20% threshold to confirm a bear-market. Another supportive feature eyed by the bull-camp is the cluster of structural lows between 2532.69 – 2603.54 which […]

A couple of weeks ago we highlighted Gold’s potential to re-test the October highs and, given the turn in investor sentiment and favourable seasonality, we still think it will eventually break higher. Over its 30-year monthly average, gold has appreciated eight months in a year, four of which have occurred between November through to February. We note […]
