Nasdaq 100 futures haven’t closed below the 200-day moving average for nearly two years. However, after delivering a key bearish reversal candle on the daily timeframe—and with RSI (14) and MACD still flashing bearish momentum signals—that streak may soon come to an end. Given the market’s history of aggressively bouncing from the 200DMA, near-term price action...
The Dow Jones Industrial Average has fluctuated within a 1% range over the past few trading sessions, encountering a neutral barrier near the 44,000-point zone. For now, investors remain cautious as uncertainty grows amid trade and diplomatic tensions from the White House with multiple countries. This prolonged uncertainty has reinforced a neutral bias in...
After rising in the last three sessions, the USD/JPY was up again today, testing a key resistance area between 151.00 to 151.35. This is a massive resistance zone, having previously provided support. With Japanese yields on rise again, I wouldn't be surprised if the UJ were to resume lower from here. If so, watch for a possible bounce at 150.00. If 150.00 then...
Silver’s bearish wedge breakout may have run its course, with Friday’s rebound from key support at $31.00—where the 50DMA and former resistance converge—suggesting a potential shift in direction. While MACD hasn’t confirmed it yet, RSI (14) has broken its week-long downtrend, hinting at a turn in momentum. With price action firming and Friday’s hammer candle...
Bitcoin's sharp drop has been driven by a combination of factors all coming into play at the same time. These include profit-taking after Bitcoin surged to above +$100K mark in short order, the absence of more regulatory support, tariffs and the broad tech-sector weakness, among other factors. But it is now approaching some key support levels where dip buyers...
Traders should be alert to the risk of an accelerated downside move in S&P 500 futures. After hitting record highs just two weeks ago, the price action has deteriorated rapidly with an initial break of minor uptrend support followed by sustained selling on rising volumes.

Will the dip buyers emerge here? US markets continue to remain on the back foot, with the tech sector in sharp focus after Nvidia’s earnings. The chip giant initially climbed over 1% in pre-market trading but swiftly reversed, dropping 4% as investors reacted to results that, while decent, failed to dazzle.

The US Dollar Index (DXY) remains firm above the 106-mark, applying pressure on the latest currency market rebound amid escalating tariff and trade war concerns. With the first wave of tariffs on Canada and Mexico set to take effect in early March, Trump's renewed tariff threats against the EU are further strengthening the Dollar's stance. This has kept the...
Following an extended expanding consolidation from Dec 2024 – Jan 2025, bearish pressure intensified after a downside breakout, increasing the probability of a double-top formation at 108,360 – 109,350. This raises concerns about a potential drop towards the previous major support-turned-resistance zone at 72,000 – 74,000. 🔹 Momentum Check: The RSI has hit...

I think the operative question to ask right now is who wants to get bullish on USD/JPY? With expectations for the Fed to cut rates later this year and Japanese inflation remaining high, to the point that the Bank of Japan may need to hike rates again, the fundamental backdrop seems ill-suited to the long side of the pair. Nonetheless, USD/JPY has held on quite...
EUR/USD has now tested the 1.0500 level for each of the past five trading days. Bulls haven't exactly taken-over as they haven't been able to drive a strong breakout, but there has been a drying up of bears as each of the past five days have also brought higher-lows, which extends a sequence of higher-lows that's built in the pair so far in February. The 25%...
The AUD/USD has fallen about 0.5% on the session, making it among the weakest of currency pairs so far in today's session. We had some weaker data from Australia overnight in the form of CPI, coming in at 2.5% vs. 2.6% eyed, and construction work done was half the expected rate at 0.5% q/q. The focus will turn to the US side of the equation as we head deeper into...
Traders should be alert to the growing risk of a downside move in gold. Bullish momentum underpinning the rally has weakened over recent weeks, alongside shaky price action.

Gold has been on a relentless tear, climbing within a well-defined rising channel since early January.
