Weekly Market recap 17: rut into safe-havens?Overview: What's happening? The risk assets have been confirming their short-term weakness and the need to correct and digest recent gains. We can see that most of the stock indices are in negative territory these days. The big technical picture of DXY also suggests possible upward momentum. We can expect the increased volatility in the Forex market in the upcoming months as USDJPY is approaching the long-term triangle's inflexion point. What patterns are driving Forex? DXY has formed H&S pattern on Daily timeframe, which is another evidence of a possible reversal, especially that it's formed around the long-term support. If DXY breaks 91.00, I want to be long on USD against some relatively weak currency. USDJPY tells us the story of the approaching volatility storm in the Forex market. The pair formed a long-term symmetrical triangle. If the triangle breaks out in either direction, it will have a powerful impact on the market as both USD and JPY are safe-haven currencies. No-brainer: short the weakest! At this point, it's good to look for short-sell setups in indices. The logic is simple - consider the indices that got hit the hardest by the correction and historically have been underperforming relative to other indices. HK33HKD and IN50USD are good examples of such relatively weak indices. What's left is to wait for specific setups in these instruments according to your strategy. HK33HKD behaves interestingly - recently I mentioned it's been relatively strong for a short time due to capital inflows from Mainland investors. Now the underlying relative weakness came back and shrugged off recent sentiments of the Hong Kong market. Summing up There may be nice short-sell setups in indices these days. Watch out for the breakouts of the key levels in DXY and USDJPY and proceeding volatility.

Weekly Market recap 16: Preparing for the next leap. Global view: What's happening? While global coronavirus cases rise to 100 million, the risk assets keep rising as well! DXY remains relatively neutral, as it's range-bound between ~90.75 local resistance area and ~88.75 long-term support. I'd confidently consider trades in USD related pairs once DXY breaks either of the range borders. For now, it's better to abstain from USD trend continuation setups. Meanwhile, major stock indices form trend continuation patterns. The consolidation period in the global markets is the best time for the quality trend setups in the relatively strong indices. Betting on the strongest I picked three strongest indices at the moment: US100, JP225USD and HK33HKD. You can see that the American tech index has already recovered from the pullback and makes new highs, while the leading Asian indices are consolidating. Nikkei has been in momentum since it's come out from the 30-year range. Chinese economy looks best during the pandemic compared to the rest of the world. Initially, China A50 index, which represents China Mainland companies was relatively stronger than the Hang Seng index as the political situation in Hong Kong affected the latter one. Now, investors see the discount that appeared in Hong Kong stocks priced higher in Mainland exchanges, which motivates big flows of investments back to Hong Kong. It resulted in the short-term relative strength of Hang Seng compared to China A50. Trading tactics for buying Indices 1. The strategy in Asian indices is simple - buy the breakout the market closes above the recent consolidations (HK33HKD - above 30000; JP225USD - above 29000). 2. Although the best entry in US100 could be the breakout of 13200, I guess it still makes sense buying it intraday for a short-term momentum gain. Conclusion There is not much going on in FX market right now as USD keeps being bound in the range, meanwhile the major stock indices present trend continuation opportunities.

Weekly Market recap 11: Getting ready for the next legWhat's happening We've been consolidating for two weeks already, with the last week being more of downward pressure. The broad markets are consolidating near their respective resistance/support areas. The ultimate event I'm waiting for is the breakdown of 90.50 support and the continuation of the downtrend in DXY. I believe when we see that breakdown, the trend momentum opportunities will come in many fx pairs and stock indices. Strategy During the consolidations like now, it pays off to be patient and particularly picky, as the moves tend to be not lengthy and often choppy. For breakout traders, it's better to focus on the short-term consolidations with the numerous confirmation signals from the price action, and conservative profit targets.

Weekly Market recap 9: First signs of actionGeneral overview - Asia leads FX market and the Western Indices were incredibly boring last week, with DXY, DAX and S&P500 staying in the consolidation. Asian markets continued to advance. In SG30SGD (Singaporean index), you can find some of the smoothest and strongest uptrends. The Singaporean market seems to be relatively strong, along with India, Australia and Japan, with a recent pullback present only in Nikkei (Japan). FX: More volatility overall and the strength in NZD With the recent data releases in the US, DXY got spurred to more volatility. So, we might see a directional move this week. It would be more interesting if the market closes at or below 92.00. NZD remains a relatively strong risk asset, especially after positive Retail Sales data yesterday. Western Indices While the Western stock indices keep consolidating, some of them formed nice patterns, like DAX, for example. A breakout from such pattern can present potential opportunities to ride a meaningful proceeding trend (the breakout might be happening already!). The US Indices continue to be relatively weaker, compared to the European ones. I'd be particularly cautious going long in S&P and NASDAQ. Brent broke out from the triangle and pushing higher, confirming the risk-seeking sentiment, so there should be a hidden strength in Indices overall.

Price Outlook - USDCAD - 8HThe pair is within a bullish flag and is currently testing the resistance of the flag. The last candle pattern on the pair seems to be a three line strike, if the pattern follows through we may see the pair rally towards the next resistance zone then attempt to break back into the wedge with the aim of testing its resistance. If the patterns fails we could see the pair drop towards the support zone and decline towards the next major key level.

Weekly Market recap 8: Are markets preparing for the advance?Mixed west with strength in Asia The week started with mixed markets. The US and European markets are still digesting gains staying in the range near their respective key resistance areas. Asian markets show some signs of strength following NIKKEI's recent powerful breakout from the long-term range. Smaller markets like India, Indonesia, Singapore also show positive dynamics compared to the US and Europe. It seems like the risk-seeking sentiment is there, although it didn't get to manifest itself in the west yet. What's next? Looking at DXY declining for three consecutive days, it makes sense that inflows into the risk assets continue. Let's see how DXY will behave near the local low at 92.15 and eventually at the last line of defence of DXY at 91.75. This period requires additional patience and selectivity in setups and instruments in FX and major western indices. Although, for those willing to try Asian markets, there is an established trend environment to try out.

Weekly Market recap 7Elections week rollercoaster After the last week's wild price action related to the US Elections, DXY erased my expectations about any sort of USD recovery. DXY went from the top of the 3-months range to the bottom (currently testing the grey area). The last line of defence before the downtrend in USD resumes is around 91.75 low (Black horizontal line at the bottom of the range). I will be aggressively bearish on USD when that low is broken down. Two scenarios 1)Risk assets (see NZDUSD and S&P500) are currently testing or slightly pierced their resistances. So we need a decisive impulse in either direction to have a clearer perspective on the sentiment this week. My bias is on the DXY breakdown and the start of risk-seeking sentiment. 2)If risk sentiment begins, NZDUSD seems to have relative strength, so I'd be considering buying it over other risk currencies. On the other hand, looking at the USDJPY, we can see a long-term descending triangle that had just broken down on November 5. I expect USD to be relatively weak currency among safe-havens. Shorting USD looks like a good idea to me.

Weekly Market recap 6: volatility may take off very soonI believe the first breakout impulse of a new trend in the major assets can start during the next week. DXY broke out the long-term trendline and held above, closing at the border of the current sideways channel at 94.00 (even a little above it). If on Monday DXY closes confidently above 94.00, I'll be surely bullish on USD and JPY as that may signal the beginning of the new wave of risk aversion sentiment. If instead DXY forms a rejection candle signal, the reversal back into the range is likely. The major asset classes came to significant price levels 1)Brent broke the important support at 39.00, confirming the short-term uptrend (started at the end of April) reversal according to the trend structure. 2)Although S&P500 hasn't broken September low yet, it's consolidating under MA(100), that adds to my bearish bias on stocks. 3)Gold is also testing its major support level. Possible scenarios Whatever asset you look at, the full-body candle in either direction will tell us a lot at this point. We either enter into a volatile trending market (in case of DXY being above 94.00) or a possible short-term trend of medium volatility in the opposite direction. The market may be pricing in the upcoming United States Presidential election on November 3. The election result can be a catalyst for a new trend across the board.

AUDUSD Wick rejections could be a sign for a buy?Can price finally find support around 0.7160? Though this pair is in a global uptrend, it is important to note that its current behavior and direction has been to the downside since the start of this trading week as is evident in the making of lower highs and lower lows. Needless to say, traders with a bullish bias has been waiting for price to find support at various areas along this week's downtrend path to get in on a buy but clearly, sellers are not done flexing their muscles yet as they have managed to push price lower and lower. Multiple wick rejections around the 0.7160 area could signify that much needed support for buyers to take control of the direction of this pair and bring back a continuation to the up side. Considering that price has respected key area between 0.7207 and 0.7193 as resistance several times in recent history, a global trend reversal could be cooking but this is not an exact confirmation yet.
