EUR/USD to remain under pressureThe EUR/USD trading pair once again met resistance near the 1.1375 mark this morning. This level has been a sideways trend resistance since November 2021 and has already beaten the price down 4 times. The price growth lows is interesting. Every attempt to push the price down is getting weaker, and the dynamic support line is aimed at the north. It is likely that against the background of liquidity compression and the growth of price lows, the price is preparing for an impulsive growth. A potential rate hike by the US Federal Reserve in March 2022 has already been included in the price. For this reason, the euro may now begin an active recovery after rebounding from the support zone around 1.1310. It is supported by the key economic numbers coming from the US and the Eurozone, such as inflation expectations for the new year. The next target of EURUSD is a retest of the resistance level near 1.1375. According to Nomura analyst Jordan Rochester, it is expected that the euro will remain under pressure in the first quarter, telling DailyForex: “We expect the euro to remain under pressure in the first quarter with a lower trade surplus, stronger use of Covid-19 restrictions and higher interest rates from the Fed in raising rates in March. The risks in the view are that trade succeeds in the fourth quarter of 2021, and January tends to be the time when agreed deals break down.” The EUR/USD will need to get back above the 1.1500 level to have a chance to develop sustainable upside momentum in 2022.

False Breakout in the S&P 500?The S&P 500 made new highs above 4800 early this year, but now the move may be looking like a false breakout. Notice how the rally between December 21 and 27 happened against a backdrop of waning volume. This isn’t a surprise given the Christmas holiday. But then when volume did resume last week, it occurred as price dropped. Several potential reversal patterns followed the yuletide surge. There was a doji on December 29, outside days on December 30 and January 3, then another doji. Third, notice how MACD rang in the New Year with a lower high, even as the index made a slightly higher high. That’s potential “bearish divergence.” Next, SPX returned to its 50-day simple moving average (SMA) less than three weeks after bouncing at that line. Its previous rebound was also close in time. How often can prices test that support before breaking it? Finally, our MA Test Bars Since script shows that the index has gone 386 sessions without touching its 200-day SMA. It’s not a record but it is long by historical standards. With monetary policy tightening and investors shedding big tech, will traders wait for a deeper pullback toward the 200-day SMA?

EURUSD, Bearish Flag paternThe downside flag on the EURUSD currency Given the divergence between the European Central Bank and the US Federal Reserve, the euro is likely to experience lower prices against the dollar. Despite the disappointing NFP figure, analysts believe that the Federal Reserve will continue to tighten market conditions this year. This will be achieved by ending quantitative easing policies and then raising interest rates. Analysts at banks such as Barclays believe that the Federal Reserve will increase in March this year. Forecast for EURUSD According to the daily chart, we see that the EUR / USD pair has been in a volatile range over the past few months. As a result, the pair has moved between the 25-day and 50-day exponential moving averages. A closer look shows that the chart forms a descending flag pattern. The price is currently slightly lower than the top of the flag pattern. Therefore, it is likely that the pair will decline in the coming days as investors predict a divergence between the Federal Reserve and the European Central Bank. The information of the Ziwox terminal is in the same direction. -Link The fundamental direction of this pair is declining Analysts and financial institutions forecast a 67% decline. Their retailers are more focused on buying this asset, which further reinforces this downward scenario. This pattern of the flag is confirmed by breaking area 1.12637. Be successful and profitable.

Inevitable US30 Short - Set Targets!Happy New Year!! New chart for the Risktakers... Surprise, it's not crypto!! The DOW Jones has to fall eventually & that may be *very* soon! U.S. Federal Reserve's Chairman Jerome Powell speaks on Tuesday (a tell for tons of volatility), and now that employment figures are looking better (at least for now),The Fed will next complete the second task of its dual mandate -- Maintaining stable inflation rates. Interest rates have been historically and artificially low for 2 years now.

The Federal Reserve Effect on AssetsHello friends, today I am showing you six charts - US Dollar (DXY), 10 Year Treasury Interest Rate, Gold, Bitcoin (BTCUSD), WTI Crude Oil and S&P 500 Index (SPX). These are some of the biggest traded assets in the world. The vertical lines on each chart represents the beginning of the month. Over the three months since September 2021, the US Federal Reserve has been pointing to a reduction in balance sheet and dropping in hints of what the are considering (such as tapering, rate hikes and so on). This has directly impacted assets classes across the world as shown in these charts. There is no doubt that interest rates will go up if the Fed is openly saying they want to raise rates so it is with no doubt that the 10 year treasury is up. With that though oil has also been going up while other asset classes like Bitcoin, Gold and S&P 500 are going down. Interestingly the S&P 500 Index has not suffered as bad as Bitcoin has even though many consider them correlated in some way. This may be an indicator of what is to come soon. Lastly, the US Dollar seems to be getting stronger over the past few months and from my prior analysis of it (see ideas below), there is a strong potential for it to keep going higher. 2022 into 2023 will be a surely interesting year with what the Federal Reserve is looking to do. There are many other asset classes I didn't review on this analysis. If you want to drop in others, feel free to do so. What are your opinions on this? If you enjoy my ideas, feel free to like it and drop in a comment. I love reading your comments below. Disclosure: This is just my opinion and not any type of financial advice. I enjoy charting and discussing technical analysis. Don't trade based on my advice. Do your own research!

Canadian dollar calm ahead of job reportsThe Canadian dollar is on a holding pattern ahead of key Canadian and US employment reports later today. Currently, USD/CAD is trading just above the 1.27 line. It could be an active North American session for the Canadian dollar, with the release of Canada's job creation numbers and the US nonfarm payrolls. Expectations are low for the Canadian data, with a forecast of just 27 thousand new jobs in December, after a robust gain of 153 thousand in November. There is plenty of anticipation around the nonfarm payroll release, however, especially after the monster ADP release earlier this week. The ADP gain of 807 thousand was double the consensus of 400 thousand, but historically, ADP has not been a reliable gauge of nonfarm payrolls. The forecast for NFP is around 425 thousand, and a release below 250 thousand or above 550 thousand could shake up the US dollar. Investors are starting to get nervous now that a Fed rate hike could be only a few months away, and the timeline for the first rate hike could be impacted by the strength of the nonfarm payroll release. A strong gain would strengthen the likelihood of a March hike, while a soft NFP could delay lift-off of a hike, which could lead to a rotation out of US dollars. In determining when to start hiking, policymakers will be looking not only at the strength of the recovery but also at inflationary pressures. The Fed has abandoned its view that inflation is 'transitory' and this week's FOMC minutes indicated that policymakers viewed inflation risks to the upside and are also concerned about the very tight job market. The minutes also stated that the Fed is considering scaling back its balance sheet as another brake on the economy. The markets took note, with 10-year bonds rising above 1.70% and CME FedWatch pegging the likelihood of a March hike above 70%. USD/CAD is testing resistance at 1.2784. Above, there is resistance at 1.2929 There are support levels at 1.2558 and 1.2477

Have Bonds Bottomed??Bonds have stabilized at lows, and have started to form a range, as we suggested yesterday. We have started to find value just above 128'10, and below 128'24, the exact range we identified in the last report. After plummeting two full handles since the beginning of 2022 it was time for ZN to reach some sort of equilibrium before its next move. From here we expect value to continue to form at current levels. A relief rally is not out of the question, especially after such a selloff. If so, we could make a run for the 129 handle again. There is a large vacuum zone above to 129'11, which should be considered a max upper bound at this point. The floor seems to be 128'10 for now. The Kovach OBV is still quite bearish, so there is little hope for a genuine bull rally any time soon.

Home Depot: A Deeper Retest Needed?Home Depot has been ripping higher as Americans spend on their homes. But now the chart may be pointing to sideways movement. First, consider the large bearish engulfing day on January 3. It followed a similar candle on December 8, which may indicate sellers are active above $410. Next, the two peaks have created a downward-sloping channel. The bottom of the pattern roughly corresponds with the $375-379 area where HD gapped higher on November 16. Will it fill that gap? Third, the lower high could suggest an ABC correction is starting. That could also point toward a deeper retest. Finally, the macro tide may be turning away from HD as the Federal Reserve grows increasingly hawkish.

Pfizer (PFE) to continue its BULL run in 2022!Fundamental Analysis Pfizer, Inc. has consistently been one of the largest pharmaceutical companies in the world for the better part of the last two decades. The company has a remarkable history going back all the way to the year 1849, when Pfizer was founded in Brooklyn, New York. The large cap pharma giant has developed a well-balanced and deep portfolio of products in key areas like Inflammation and Immunology, Internal Medicine, Oncology, Rare Disease, Vaccines etc. However, it seems that as a result of the success of Pfizer's vaccine COVID-19 treatments, many investors have forgotten about the rest of Pfizer's business and how successful it continues to be. It is true that the sales of its COVID-19 vaccine ($36 billion in 2021 alone) have managed to nearly double Pfizer's annual revenue from $41.9 billion in 2020 to over $78 billion in 2021. What's even more important is that the strong sales growth has also translated into higher profits for the company as its profit margins before interest and taxes, referred to as EBIT margin, have risen over the past year. This shows that Pfizer has managed its R&D and all other fixed and operating costs associated with development, production and distribution efficiently, thus improving the profitability ratios of the company. The large cap pharma giant has also managed to almost triple the size of its free cash flow to more than $29 billion over the past twelve months compared to only $11.6 billion in 2020. More free cash flow makes a business more robust, giving Pfizer more money to invest in research and development of new products, pay more in dividends, or strengthen its balance sheet. The company currently has a total of 94 drugs in the pipeline spread across critical treatment areas like Inflammation and Immunology, Internal Medicine, Oncology, Rare Disease, Vaccines etc. all waiting regulatory approval. - Phase 1(27); Phase 2 (29); Phase 3 (29); Registration (9) Looking at the outstanding track record of Pfizer's drug development capabilities, we can easily state that the company will continue to be a leader in the sector that it operates in. Macro view The equity markets in the US are currently undergoing a process of meaningful repricing and re-valuation of what companies are actually worth, as everyone is getting ready for the Federal Reserve to start raising interest rates in the US and tighten its monetary policy. In a rising interest rate environment, investors tend to move away from expensive high-growth stocks trading at unreasonably high P/E and P/S valuations as the tighter monetary policy environment makes it much more difficult and more expensive for such companies to borrow and invest capital and produce the high earnings growth that investors expect from them. Well-established large cap Healthcare and Biotech stocks are considered to be least correlated with the monetary policy situation in the country as they tend to trade more on FDA drug approvals and drug-related announcements rather than actual earnings per share. Most of the leaders in this space also have a substantial pricing power, as people using their medicines are doing so because they need them and because the drugs are helping them get better. Thus, owning Healthcare and Biotech stocks in a rising inflation and interest rate environment is a defensive play that could end up paying off big time, as stocks in these sectors are rather volatile. Technical Analysis The stock has experienced a volatile retracement from its $61 all-time highs and is currently in a corrective phase. However, the uptrend is still intact as the price is well above both the strong horizontal support at $51 and the upward sloping diagonal support (blue line) at $44. Furthermore, the stock is trading above its 5, 20, 50, 200 EMAs, which is also a bullish continuation signal. We expect buyers to start coming in around the $52-53 level, thus establishing the next higher high. Once that is done, the stock will re-test its ATH at around $61 in Q1 of this year. The broad market framework, together with the many positive company related developments in the coming months are expected to bring enough momentum to the stock in order for it to break its previous ATH and set a new one sometime in Q2. Our target for the stock in H1 of 2022 is around the $68 level, which is roughly 30% higher from the current levels.

BTCUSD - Two Forecasts.I like to take bar patterns and compare them to what has happened before, to try and see where the market is taking us. It's just a manual way of doing what machine-learning algorithms perform. With the abysmal performance of Bitcoin lately I see one of two things: Using traditional analysis, there's a possibility that a very large (around 4 months long) teacup pattern is forming. If so, we're just about at the bottom of it now. More likely, using pattern matching, I see a repetition of the March thru May 2021 Bitcoin crash - albeit rescaled to a shorter timeframe and lesser peak/valley difference. If it weren't for the terrible economy (thanks to politicians who love spending other people's money & the idiots at the Fed), we should have been pushing past $100k by now. Hopefully, one of these two forecasts plays out.🤞 If it doesn't it could very well be the end of crypto as we know it. The economy sucks for multiple reasons, but the main factor appears to be a deliberate crashing of the US dollar ... You see, the past 20 years or so of Congressional Spending Bills, together with the Federal Reserve have printed multi-trillions of dollars - creating money they did not have to spend. (This is a de-facto tax on US taxpayers, because it devalues the money that we all have.) Real Money Supply: FRED:M2REAL Federal Debt: FRED:GFDEBTN The Biden admin is, I believe, deliberately pushing us over the edge by spending 10-20 trillion more dollars (creating them into existence via the Federal Reserve ponzi scheme). Instead of demanding a balanced budget, reigning in the out-of-control spending, selling assets and reducing debt, they instead are intent on squeezing out every last drop before they push us over the cliff . Now, the hole they've dug is so colossal, the only way they can get us out of it is by crashing the dollar - which devalues the current debt they've created. They regard it as "Free Money" - ie: "It's going down in flames, so we might as well spend it like crazy!", ignoring the fact that us plebs have to pay for their utter incompetence and complete disregard for US Citizens , because along with the US dollar they're also crashing our entire Savings, 401K's, IRA's, Pension Funds, etc. !! The only things that will increase along with inflation are tangible goods. This is why there are so many corporations/entities trying to gobble up the housing market. Property is one of the few things that will increase along with hyper-inflation created by a US dollar crash. "You'll own nothing and be happy" they tell us. Funny how politicians always come out on top. 🤬 Sigh. Let's Go Brandon! FRED:M2REAL FRED:GFDEBTN

Swiss franc snoozingThe Swiss franc flexed some muscle in the days leading into Christmas, but the currency is almost unchanged this week, trading around 0.9170. The Omicron variant continues to spread as countries scramble to deal with the newest wave of Covid. The good news is that most reports have shown that Omicron is believed to be far milder than Delta, which hopefully means that this latest Covid wave will not cause as much devastation as Delta. However, there is no question that Omicron is far more contagious than Delta and poses a serious health hazard to unvaccinated people, which could potentially overload hospitals. The markets are extremely reactionary now, especially this week with many market participants on holiday and the markets marked by illiquidity. We are seeing sharp moves from risk currencies such as the Australian dollar, while the US dollar and Swiss franc, both of which are safe-haven assets, have showed limited movement. It's a light economic calendar this week, but there are two Swiss events that could have an impact on the movement of the Swiss franc - Credit Suisse Economic Expectations on Wednesday and the KOF Economic Barometer on Thursday. The uncertainty surrounding Omicron has captivated the market's attention, overshadowing other issues such as a Federal Reserve rate hike. The equity markets have been on the rise, buoyed by reports that Omicron is less severe than Delta and may not impact the US economy as much as feared. The US consumer is spending and unemployment is at low levels, which has kept the recovery going strong. Fed Watch has priced in a 53% chance of a 25-bps hike in March, and the odds of a rate hike will surely change based on the impact of Omicron on the US economy. There is weak support at 0.9161, followed by support at 0.9247 USD/CHF faces resistance at 0.9247 and 0.9294

EURUSD ShortHey Traders, in today's trading session we are monitoring EURUSD for a selling opportunity around around 1.128 zone. We have 1.123 as a first station for scalping lovers, and 1.09 zone for swing traders. one of the reasons i'm thinking about this trade is the bullish momentum i've noticed on DXY chart. and fed Powell being Hawkish in order to control inflation is an important factor to take in consideration for USD bulls. if you decided to go swing on this trade please wait for the perfect entry, and also use proper risk management, because swing movements are violent comparing to the movements in the short term. If you have any questions or looking for any update please don't hesitate to comment your opinion below. Joe.

Is the Metaverse a Hedge for Inflation? (ft. Dogecoin) A little while ago I argued that virtual estate and real estate were inversely correlated -- as seen in the Evergrande example in China where Evergrande stock and MANA coin criss-crossed each other in terms of its ROI. It's yet to be seen how this will play out in the US real estate market but it seems likely that we'll start to see similar patterns emerge as time goes on. The US market may take longer to unravel since it's a bigger apparatus with a lot more moving parts -- talking about it in a coherent way in itself is often a challenge. But there's been a shift in tone from both DC and the media in regards to inflation in the last week, which may be a sign that things are starting to move forward. There's basically two different scenarios that could play out in the current US economy's trajectory -- hyperinflation, or an economic slowdown brought on by the Federal Reserve after they increase interest rates significantly. (Right now the former scenario seems more likely, but that's TBD.) Either way, crypto will probably end up doing well. More details in the video itself. Also as an aside, I also argued that Dogecoin could be an inflation hedge against the crypto market itself. We saw a weird blip this week where the coin pushed itself upwards a little bit, running counter to all of the other coins out there. Will this trend continue? We'll have to wait and see.

NEXT LEG LOWER FOR THE DOLLAR!2021 saw the U.S. dollar strengthen in anticipation of the Federal Reserve potentially raising interest rates, a possibility which became a reality yesterday as up to 3 hikes were announced to take place in 2022! BUY THE RUMOUR, SELL THE FACT! FUNDAMENTALS: The odds that the Federal Reserve can successfully reduce its balance sheet to even pre-2020 levels with the amount of global debt in existence is precisely 0%. A controlled deflation would crash every leveraged market in existence and precipitate an unprecedentedly large financial crisis. It is possible that the Federal Reserve will hike its official rate while continuing to inject trillions in permanent and temporary liquidity, essentially bailing out the financial system and global economy from the consequences of these higher interest rates. TECHNICALS: The DXY is over-extended from both its 50-day and 200-day moving averages, and is primed for a correction. The DXY is encountering heavy resistance at the 0.5 FIB level, and has printed FOUR DOJIS on the weekly chart, an extremely rare and reliable signal of a pending reversal. DXY volatility is extremely low and is primed for a reversal, which is a bearish signal.
