Keep eye on the ISM services report as well as this saw a stark miss in December (49.6 vs 55.0 estimated). Another poor miss could sew the seeds of a hard landing in the US, forcing a...

USD/JPY has been hovering close to the 145 line most of the week, and the trend has continued today. In the European session, USD/JPY is trading at 144.81, down 0.21%. The US releases nonfarm payrolls later today. The release once received massive coverage and was usually a market-move, but the new era of high inflation and global tightening has stolen much of...

Looing at GBPUSD on 30M timeframe We looking for a possible SELL/SHORT position We looking for a possible downward at this distribution phase
The last time I posted about SP500 I was expecting the market to try break strong resistance 4140-4180. So far it goes according to plan. I’m preparing to go short. What if we break the resistance? This can be a bull trap and we will get a new low very likely in September. There is another option. VIX on weekly chart, we’re very close to 200EMA(21.5).This is a...
It is looking like July 2022 could be a memorable month for the euro, but unfortunately not for the right reasons. EUR/USD is within a whisker of dropping below parity with the US dollar for the first time since 2002 and the risk of a break below parity below in the coming days remains high. In the North American session, EUR/USD is trading at 1.008, down...

Hey tradomaniacs, chaotic market huh? To be honest... I think the current move of US-DOLLAR doesn`t make any sense. I keep it simple and short, otherwise I`d have to break the mold. The data are mixed but do overall show a slowdown in the economy but at the same time rising inflation. Non-Farm-Payrolls: 199.000 less jobs than expected and the worst...
Hello Folks hope you're doing well, Possible trade I can see for now after NFP for EURUSD as I believe the DXY should soar higher... It is Friday,,, so be careful kn this one Thanks
As we suggested in the previous report, stocks are generally ranging until news from one of the most significant data points traders can have: Non Farm Payrolls. This is particularly significant because a lower than expected reading will signal that tapering from the Fed is likely off the table until well into next year. In a Central Bank driven economy, this...
