All Treasuries have flatlined in the sell cycle.  20yr has to eclipse and hold 91.70 to support Eur appreciation.  Eur-Aud-Gbp all bid overall albeit lacking drive at the moment.

[SF Monedge]

I think if the 30yr clears and holds 115’12 it would be unhealthy for the Dollar.  115’07 at present.

Option Profile remains SHORT June Gold futures from the Apr 19 TOP; new sell point 2355

XAUUSD just popped above 2332.

[SF Monedge]

Vix futures have been sideways for 12 hours with a slight undertow in volume (short side).  Dow covered calls fell off of a cliff around at session end yesterday, since there was zero impetus the odds were stacked that stocks would catch a bid today.  That said there is already an increase in underlying puts to a slight extent which could assist in putting a cap in the gains.  I like your 106 DXY notation earlier Jay.  Result with consideration to many other things could end up being some bit of a continuation in risk appetite only to be followed by an offered scenario in risk coming up I think.  Hence why I am already scaling in the long side of USD from below.

If the mood changes I switch, that simple.

XAUUSD 4 HOUR CHART –

I was not even looking at gold until I saw commodity currencies rallying and this chart tells it all.

The failure to establish below 2300 has seen a pop that faces a resistance at 2332, If broken then 2352 becomes the target.

On the downside, XAUUSD keeps a bid as long as it stays above 2323.

EURUSD minor 4-hour down trendline at 1.0764 has been broken. One look at EURGBP will tell you where some of the demand is coming from. although the USD is softer in general despite a bounce back in bond yields. (4.502%)

for us, Option Profile remains SHORT USDJPY from the Apr 29 TOP despite the current rally.

USDJPY 4 HOUR CHART – WARY OF THE BOJ

USDJPY has slipped into the background as the market seems wary of provoking the BoJ.

As I noted, the BoJ pays attention to the same technicals we do and in this regard will try to keep USDJPY below 156.28.

On the upside, USDJOY trades with a better bid while above 155 so currently trapped between 155.00-156.28.

Word of caution… be wary of an intervention surprise on a thin Friday but if I was the BoJ I would not be in a rush to intervene again with USDJ

EURUSD 4 HOUR CHART – BOUNCE OFF SUPPORT

EURUSD bounce off 1.0724 (AT) support has been enough to put the 1.0650 bias-setting level in play again.

Chart shows key resistance is distant and a down trendline still intact

Note a firm EURGBP (i.e. above .8600) provides some support.

[SF Monedge]

I think its unlikely the sell cycle in Dow runs out of steam overall until tomorrow and then the risk turns toward a bid bias.  Time will tell.  If so then 3880 would hold.

Reaction to the weekly jobless claims shows the state of the market and how sensitive it is toi even 2nd or 3rd-tier data. US yields have ticked back up, looks like a Power of 50 in 10-year yields at 4.50% (last 4.4943% vs. 4.477% low post data)

[SF Monedge]

In the water long UsdChf / short European Union.

[SF Monedge]

Mixed reaction in 30yr Bond, as long as 115’10 holds then so should EurUsd 10700 I believe to this point.

[GVI Forex 2]

US weekly jobless claims rise more than expected

Yields dip, USD dips, stocks pop

Note this is not the BLS survey week

EURGBP 4 HOUR CHART – Watch .8600

Looking at this chart, technicals are still pointed up but the range is .8581-.8619, with .8600 as the midpoint.
For me this suggests using .8600 as a barometer of GBP strength (relative term) or weakness.

On the upside, a firm break above .8620 would put the major,8744 level in play.

On the downside, a firm break of .8580 would suggest the high is in for now and cooling pressure on GBPUSD.

Likely see support on dips while above .8581.

GBPUSD 4 HIUR CHART

Break off 1.2466 has so far been unable to reach 1.2422-40. The significance of these levels is below it would open the floodgates on the downside (major support is at 1.2298).

Otherwise, there are two pivotal levels

1.2500-05 on top

and

1.2450 (Power of 50 level) for intra-day trading bias (currently back above it)

As I noted, also loom at EURGBP as an indicator of GBP weakness or noit.

[GVI Forex 2]

BOE was dovish enough so no buy the rumor sell the fact reaction.

You can use EURGBP as one indicator of GBP weakness.

In GBPUSD 1.2450 now becomes the pivotal level for day traders.
