Week ahead 1/29/2023 The Federal Reserve's interest rate decision and the US non-farm payrolls report are the most highly anticipated events in the US, as savvy investors like myself keep a close eye on the economy. The inflation numbers have shown signs of cooling, giving me hope that the Federal Reserve might slow down its monetary policy tightening with a modest 25 bps rate hike on Wednesday. Meanwhile, Europe's central banks are expected to raise interest rates by 50 bps on Thursday, with the European Central Bank and the Bank of England leading the charge in their aggressive campaign against inflation. I'll also be following key reports on growth, inflation, and unemployment for the Euro Area , Germany , Italy , France , and Spain . Across the pond, China 's PMI data will be in the spotlight as the world watches the first gauge of the world's second-largest economy after the government transitioned away from its zero-Covid policy. In Japan , I'll be following consumer confidence figures, housing starts, industrial production, retail sales, and unemployment rate. Down under, Australia will have a packed week with the Ai Group Manufacturing Index for January and retail sales, housing credit, and building permits for December. In New Zealand , I'll be following the December trade balance and fourth-quarter labor market figures. So, to summarize, here's what we have in store this week: US: Federal Reserve's interest rate decision US non-farm payrolls report ISM manufacturing and non-manufacturing PMIs JOLTs Job Openings ADP private payrolls S&P Global PMIs Earnings season with prominent companies reporting (AMD, Meta Platforms, Alphabet, Amazon, Apple, and Qualcomm) Europe: European Central Bank and Bank of England interest rate hike Eurozone inflation, growth, and unemployment reports Germany's prices and trade Euro Area business survey Switzerland's KOF leading indicators Turkey's inflation rate January's manufacturing and services PMIs Asia: China's PMI data Japan's consumer confidence, housing starts, industrial production, retail sales, and unemployment rate India's Union Budget and January PMIs South Korea's inflation and trade data Australia and New Zealand: Ai Group Manufacturing Index and retail sales Housing credit, building permits, and trade balance Labor market figures

USD/CHF for weekend ending 1/29/2023The Swiss franc recently dropped to 0.92 per USD, retreating from its 1-year high of 0.916 on January 16th. As I assess the situation, I consider the outlook of monetary tightening by both the Swiss National Bank and the Federal Reserve . The recent slowdown in Swiss inflation has limited the expectations for further rate hikes by the SNB. According to December's inflation data, the rate fell to 2.8%, below the SNB's target of 3% and market expectations of 2.9%. Despite this, the Chairman of the SNB, Jordan, has stated that further rate hikes shouldn't be ruled out, as second-round inflationary pressures still linger in the country's economy. Last year, the SNB raised its key rate by 175bps, taking borrowing costs out of negative territory for the first time since 2011. According to our neural network based forecasting model, the Swiss Franc is estimated to reach 0.93 by the end of this quarter. The same model and market analysts predict that the Swiss Franc will reach 0.98 in 12 months.

The week of 23 Jan CHFJPY – Opportunity to grab +1300 pips … butBut do you have the discipline and patience?? This pair has been rising since June 2021 but things may be changing now. As my daily chart shows, price has crossed below the 200 SMA and has just retested it from below. Also important is the fact that it has been rejected with a nice pin bar on a daily basis. It is not the nicest looking downtrend but the sequence of lower highs and lower lows is very much present. We have enough evidence that the market is not accepting high prices. As I said above, there is the potential of more than a thousand pips here. But holding on for a long period is not easy, it requires: - a wide stop loss say +300 pips (to be above 143.10) - total belief in this trade for a few months. - the ability to see the market go against you multiple times. - patience to hold the trade for an extended period of time. - overcome the urge to move the stop to break even too early. If you can do all that, this may be a great opportunity to obtain massive profits. This may be an early stage of a downtrend and if it continues and strengthens, it could last a long time. Otherwise, hold that bearish bias for several months and look to take multiple smaller trades as this pair makes its way to the downside. Nothing is 100% in trading, but I have a high degree of confidence in this trade. As always, use sound money and risk management and stay patient in all your trades.

Opportunities in the CHF/JPY 24/01/2023Upon analysing the market, we have identified an opportunity in the CHF/JPY currency pair. A thorough examination of the 4-hour chart reveals that this pair has been adhering to a downtrend, utilizing it to drive momentum to the downside. Following a decline of over 650 pips, the price appears to have undergone a corrective move to the upside, which can also be referred to as an ABC pattern. This move has created a slope support, which has now been breached. Additionally, we can observe the MacD weakening and transitioning downwards. We believe that taking profit at around 138.85 then 135.75 would be a wise decision..
