NAS100 DAILY CHART – TESTING 18K

NAS00 reacting to the retreat in bond yields and fresh rate cut expectations.

As this chart shows, it is coming in sight of the major resistance zone where 18000 needs to become support to put it on the radar.

Note CFD price feeds differ between brokers, even with the same symbols so I show the chart patterns rather than specific levels.

yeaaaahh …. but gunning for 3 or 5 pips over 20 minutes is a hard way to try support one’s mistress(es), especially if she is the high maintenance type that like to fly 1rst class

[Mtl JP]

maybe kashkari’s piece – https://www.minneapolisfed.org/article/2024/policy-has-tightened-a-lot-how-tight-is-it-an-update – caused a little scattering of the cats

[SF Monedge]

Put to Call ratio in S/P 500 is right in the middle, up overall, most other gauges are the same, including the volume ratio I noted earlier that had a sudden drop off which was somebody big either getting out or taking some money off of the table.  Bottom line with these and other gauges are ending up with EurUsd up overall but not convincingly to this point intra-day.  Stocks and Eur often move well together.

[SF Monedge]

If you are in and out rapidly like I am often, EurUsd is stalling here, wait around 20 minutes and hit it long again for a few pips.

[Mtl JP]

monedge I saw a bit of a dlr acceleration in the dlrchf pair
might it be connected to your reading of stocks volume ?

[michael Calif]

EURUSD prices should zig-zag higher til around June5, per Option Profile, at which time we’ll reevaluate

[SF Monedge]

Very sharp drop in stocks volume ratio just now, heads up.

earlier Neel Kashkari says
– recent inflation data raise questions about whether monetary policy is restrictive enough to fully return price growth to the central bank’s 2% target.

Non-correlation day: Lower US bond yields, stocks up, USD mostly higher.

AUDUSD 4 HOUR CHART – CONSOLIDATING

Similar to other pairs AUDUSD is trading below highs set after Friday’; US jobs report.

What I like about this type of chart is that the key levels are clear, which gives a framework to trade with shorter time frames.

In this regard, ,6565 needs to hold to keep the .6648  high on the radar while the upside is limited unless the high is taken out,

USDJPY 30 MINUTE CHART – 155 TOUGH

As I wrote yesterday 152-155 is sort of a no man’s land and the run at the top end has so far run into a stone wall as can be seen on this chart.

On the downside, supports are between 153.80-00

Note, lower US bond yields have helped cap the upside so far.

EURJPY 1 HOUR CHART

i assume I am not alone in only trading the JPY very selectively and shying away from being on the short JPY side other than for a scalp.

However, I look at this cross (along with other EUR crosses)for clues trading EURUSD (currently supported by firmer EUR cross offsets).

As for EURJPY, the key level is at 167.38/ Momentum is currently tilted up in this cross but expect caution at any approach to this level.

[Mtl JP]

…”an addict having a tough time without his/her latest fix” …

in tough time getting a fix addict might lower caution, whatever caution thay may have to begin with.

is that an extra exploitable opportunity for the fix peddler ?

A look at the day ahead in U.S. and global markets from Mike Dolan

World markets have returned to levels of almost month ago as fears of an overheated U.S. economy abate even as corporate profit growth remains brisk.

The April miss on new payrolls and the sight of annual wage growth ebbing below 4% have been enough to switch the narrative back to a Federal Reserve which is on hold for now, rather than one that may even consider further interest rate hikes.

Morning Bid: Cooler US takes edginess off markets, UBS jumps

[GVI Forex 2]

With the US economic calendar basically empty of key events this week it is like an addict having a tough time without his/her latest fix.

What we are left with is some revived Fed risk cut expectations as seen by slipping bond yields but little to go after on the dollar downside unless last Friday’s post-US job USD lows are threatened.

Otherwise, a mixed bag with JPY and AUD the underperformers.

EURUSD is holding up while above 1.0752, close to unchanged as it has been the benficaiory of varioius cross flows (note firmer EURGBP).

XAUUSD 4-HOUR CHART – CUP HALF FILLED OR HALF EMPTY?

XAUUSD struggling to regain momentum, after a brief blip above 2328 failed to hold.

This leaves the ranges at 2291-2332, broader at 2277-2352

Taking a cup half-empty or half-filled approach,

–  Finds support as long as 2300+ trades

–  Limited upside as long as it trades below 2350ish

-Revert to shorter time frame charts while within these ranges.

USDJPY 4 HOUR CHART – WHAT THE SAVVY TRADER IS SAYING

I have passed on the view of what I call the “savvy trader” (long-time GV member) and here is another one just emailed to me (note I am only acting as the messenger)

155.66 – 155.92 could be a good area to start a strategic campaign short

closes below 153 on a daily basis would not be good for the bulls

and anticipate an acceleration below 152 and 151

1st target 147.xx from which anticipate a bounce before eventually drilling for much deeper targets.

I suspect that the maximum it can drop is around 126 and then it will range back up
everything must be done with patience
