GBPUSD DAILY CHART – Not on the hit list

Outside week

GBP benefiting from not being on the US tariff hit list and so far ignoring an expected 25bps rate cut tomorrow by the BOE.

To keep a strong bid, needs to stay above 1.2500-23

Chart shows resistance at 1.2575-1.2610 but 1. 2550 is likely to be pivotal if it makez a run at it or slips back towards 1.25.

Picture tells a story. Our focus is EurJpy but we are keeping a close eye on this major (UsdJpy) for obvious (downside) reasons.

NAS100 4 HOUR CHART   Will Key levels come om the radar?

Gap filled and now needs to make a run at key resistance at 21812-21908 or risk disappointment.

To keep the current bid, 21104 needs to hold as support.

[GVI Forex 2]

US500 4 HOUR CHART –  Gap filled but not enough

Opening week gap filled but would need to regain 6932+ to put the .6100 area back on the radar.

Otherwise, 6000 remains the pivotal bias setting level within a broad 5900-6100 range.

 

[GVI Forex 2]

XAUUSD 4 HOUR CHART – ANOTHER RECIORD DAY

New record high (2845), close to our next target at 2850 (beyond that is 2880-00)

To keep 2850 on the radar, 2830 needs to become support.’

In any case, keeps the bid as long as it trades above 2800-07.

DAX – GER30

Dax is still my hero – in spite of all the political upheaval in last couple of days, it is managing to stay above the channel trendline at 21.230.

Now resistance is at 21.500

If survives up here it will target 22.000

[Belgrade Bobby]

NIO Inc.

Nio started nicely Up, but got cut short at 4.50 – downtrend channel line.

For another attempt at it , needs to stay above 4.30 in coming days.

However if 4.10 lost faces a drop to 3.75 and 3.60 – important horizontal support.

[Belgrade Bobby]

SOLUSD – Solana

Is it ready to break sharply Up ?

Resistance at 220.00 & 240.00

Support at 180.00 & 170.00

It was scooped up just below 180, and on its own it represents a significant fact.

On the big picture it is in an Uptrend and needs to get bullish momentum going any time now.

USDJPY 4 HOUR CHART –  Watch 155

Failed to test 156… puts 153.70-00 back on the radar while below 155, which is the clear bias setter

Looking at longer-term charts, momentum is still down while below 155.95-00 but consolidating while above 153.70 (key level is 153.15) .

This an all buy time for GOLD (XAU/USD) as it is not relenting in its continuous buying power. This week Friday 7th February 2025 is NFP (Non farm payroll ) release date and market is set to be volatile that day. Even days before we will see abnormal market behaviour. We saw a gap of 50-100 pips in some currency pairs upon Market opening this week.

This is testament to the volatility we are about to experience this week and beyond. The gold went on the lowest at price 2806 this morning and ever since went on a buy. It has ever since been buying and it got to a high of 2845. I see market reching around 2853 and beyond today. The upward movement does not seem to want to wane so soon. I see a continued buying power of the gold.As i said earlier gold has been buying since 1996, go and check your hourly chart on the gold to confirm this.

However, let us tread with caution and let’s place minimal trades with strong SL and TP. Don’t Trade more than 2-5% of your capital. A word is enough for the wise.

Thanks
TOPNINE.
