WHAT WE NEED TO SEE NEXT FROM THE USDIn this video, we discuss what we need to see from the USD going into the FOMC meeting tomorrow. We are expected to see a hike of 0.25% which typically does see investment into the currency. However, we feel the FOMC may disappoint with the statement on future rate hikes. If this happens we need to see the USD break below the trendline support and zone support of 96.30. If we do see a break and close below we will be looking for short opportunities on the USD.

GOLD HIGHER IF FOMC DISAPPOINTGOLD seasonally moves higher throughout December and if the FOMC disappoint after hiking rates on Wednesday we could see prices rally in line with the seasonal move. Price is currently sitting at previous structure highs and 20EMA where we could see a further impulse leg. The market may be subdued until the announcement so patience will be required here. Looking at the lower timeframes if the 4hr timeframe can push higher and form higher highs in line with the daily timeframe we have the opportunity for a better risk to reward profile.

GBPUSD UPDATE. EU SAYS NO TO RE-NEGOTIATIONThe GBPUSD caught a bid over the last couple of days as PM May won a no-confidence vote within her own constituency and was on her way to meet with EU leaders to re-negotiate the current Brexit deal. However, the EU had other ideas and later came out after meeting with PM May saying that she offered nothing new and that they will not re-negotiate the current deal. This has led to traders re-igniting the selling pressure on GBP as we suggested in our previous GBP post. Expect further downside here with the support of 1.2350 likely to be next targets.

USDSGD DOWNSIDE CONTINUATIONWith the USD expected to fall we look to the USD crosses for short opportunities. We have already had one great trade on USDSGD last month and it has lined up again for another short opportunity. The reason we expect USD to fall is due to the current downside of the US Government Bonds. The prices of the Bonds are falling and this can show a lack of investment in the greenback. A lack of investment can lead to the currency weakening and the bonds tend to act as a lead indicator for the USD strength/weakness. Technically the daily chart formed a ringed high at the bearish moving averages showing potential downside. Weekly support sits at 1.3613 and would be first targets.

AUDCAD CORRECTIONAUDCAD has been on our radar for a few reasons. AUD GDP Report was poor and put doubt in the mind of investors whether the RBA could hike rates at all. We are also seeing CAD gain strength off the back of the current decision for Opec to cut oil production to help struggling oil prices. The daily timeframe is potentially forming a head and shoulders pattern with the right shoulder forming at the 0.9650 resistance. Price has currently formed a double top pattern at the resistance and if we see a break lower, look for the re-test for continuation trades.

GBPNZD DOWNSIDE CONTINUATIONYesterday PM May deferred the vote on Brexit in Parliament that was meant to take place today so she can discuss the current draft agreement with the EU again. She was highly unlikely to win the vote regardless and the markets took this news negatively. Looking at the GBP pairs we have an opportunity to continue to trade this currency lower and GBPNZD looks good for further downside. Technically the market is in a downtrend and the lower timeframe averages are lining up with the higher timeframe averages with price currently re-testing the averages. Look for bearish price action here for continuation trades lower.

EURUSD TO BENEFIT FROM USD WEAKNESSEURUSD has been holding nicely above the key 1.1300 and with the potential for further USD weakness combined with strong Euro seasonal patterns, a move into the key resistance of 1.1780 could be likely. Looking at the 4hr timeframe on the right-hand side we have seen a close above the previous significant highs and price is currently testing the moving averages. If we see bullish price action here we can look for the early opportunity long.
