Powell

EUR/USD edges higher as CPI fallsIt continues to be a quiet week for the euro. In the European session, EUR/USD is trading at 1.0363. The ECB's number one priority has been bringing down inflation, which has hit double-digits. ECB policy makers are no doubt pleased that November CPI fell sharply to 10.0%, down from 10.6% a month earlier. This beat the consensus of 10.4%, and the euro has responded with slight gains. The drop in eurozone inflation was the first since June 2021, and investors will be hoping that this indicates that inflation is finally peaking. On Tuesday, German CPI showed a similar trend, falling to 10.0%, down from 10.4% (10.3% est). Still, eurozone Core CPI remained unchanged at 5.0%, matching the forecast. One inflation report is not sufficient to indicate a trend, and with inflation still in double digits, nobody is declaring victory in the battle against inflation. Still, the drop in German and eurozone inflation increases the likelihood of a 50 basis-point increase at the December 12th meeting, following two straight hikes of 75 basis points. With market direction very much connected to US interest rate movement, a speech from Fed Chair Jerome Powell later today could be a market-mover. Powell is expected to discuss inflation and the labour market, and his remarks could echo the hawkish stance that Fed members have been signalling to the markets over the past several weeks. The market pricing for the December meeting is 65% for a 50-bp move and 35% for a 75-bp hike, which means that the markets aren't all on the Fed easing rates. Even if the Fed does slow to 50 bp in December, it will still be a record year of tightening, at 425 basis points. EUR/USD is testing resistance at 1.0359. Above, there is resistance at 1.0490 There is support at 1.0264 and 1.0131

$SPX - What's next?$SPX - What's next? Important data coming out this week out of US as well as Powell tonight it would be a surprise if he's dovish I'd personally like a pull back in US indices and to get back in long, this principle is validated with metals as well, let's not forget NFP... As the market is forward looking, we have seen DXY decline as rates will be declining in the future as the recession heads further, the data is establishing weaker in certain areas. However, technically we are at a key area, do we pull back or do we extend further to the downside. AUD as china may open may benefit AUD - Keep a key eye as well as confluence of Indices and precious metals. The key pairs I am looking into going overall: DXY EUR YEN AUD XAU SPX DAX Looking for pull backs to go back into the trend at suitable levels matching my trade plan! Medium term positioning. All the best, Trade Journal

Jackson impacting USDAfter an important Jackson, Powell consistent attempt at persuading (or forcing) equities higher is coming to an end and it is time for a round of chart updates across the board. This sort of tendency, which toys with the idea of tapering and rolling up purchases should be seen as such; USD shorts are increasingly less appropriate; but here the dominating factor between the two currencies is the transition to CBDCs and a race to the bottom. The well being and woes of China who are already miles ahead in their fourth beta test, will determine effectively who cancels the currency first. A very plausible move throughout 2020 since buyers remained hesitant to play the safety leg. I was hesitant to play the leg higher but this decision made things a lot easier. The correct course now is switching to a new course, this time an ABC sequence towards 7.31x (+13% from current levels) into 2022 to offer lasting protection, invalidation for this move will come below March 2018 lows (-3% from current levels).

Macro Bear Market JUST beginning??BTC is in a very dangerous spot right now, people aren't losing their jobs fast enough (unemployment at 3.5%!!) and Netflix keep on raising subscription prices in Ukraine (war!!!) The FED might have to issue more hikes all the way to 2024, mid terms are also coming which is historically bearish for extreme risk assets (BTC??!!) TA wise, BTC is forming an extremely BEARISH descending triangle (explosive move?,!!) which could see 3k target in no time Trade wisely and close any longs, cut your losses if required as this will get MUCH much worse Macro-economical factors seem to be pointing to a structural bear market could take up to 111 months for full recovery (according to Goldman Sachs) Please share this idea as I will be providing more tips on how to navigate a full blown financial collapse!!

🤖 #BTCLIVE - 29.09 🤖🤖 #BTCLIVE - 29.09 🤖 TLDR: Short-Term (-1 Day) 70:30- Bullish:Bearish Mid-Term (1 Week+) 40:60 Bullish:Bearish Long-Term (1 Month+) 60:40 - Bullish:Bearish OVERVIEW: All things looking relatively bullish over the next day or so for BTC - there is still some significant resistance to get through at $20.5k region with long term trendlines and high resistances volume. September close is notoriously bearish, so I still expect this to ring true. Expecting some very heavy volatility tomorrow with the options expiration. Ultimately my general thoughts are that we are going to track up to about $20.5k and then have a very heavy retracement from there - this could well extend well below $19k back to the $18.7k support. We are nearing the end of this daily Descending triangle so a big move is expected out of that, they are a a pretty bearish pattern and the weekly descending wedge also suggests that a $16k is still on the cards without invalidating the pattern. So in a nutshell don't commit too heavy to longs rn , we still need to break this 20DEMA in order to get any where and losing $19.1k and the 200EMA on the 1hr will likely see the start of the downward movement.

BOE, CPI and the FedWe're probably going to bounce from here (maybe muck around for the rest of the week and bounce next week higher); I think the BOE's QE decision is going to have people hoping that perhaps the Fed will do the same. The fact that a central bank can flinch and go the other way is a huge psychological change. This is somewhat of an exogenous event to the positive, to an already oversold market. Rally is going to continue (this is also area of the 200 weekly MA support). Then ahead is the CPI, and i think this may come in lighter than expected and the markets may rally even higher; hoping that the Fed will back off the 75bp hike and ease up going in to the end of the year. Of course it can be a terrible double digit number, in which case the markets will tank; basically translates to 'what the Fed is doing is not working, and they're driving the economy to the ground anyway'. But despite the data, and any easing of raising, since the Fed has pretty much said that they want to reach a certain target (despite what they say about being data dependent and whatnot), they're gonna plow ahead with the 75bp raise, then 50, as expected. I think this will be a big downer for the markets, and they will, despite fairly solid communication by the Fed, lose faith in the FED and find them to be stubborn and unwavering, leading the economy in to a recession in 2023. Having said that, there's always exogenous events that can change the course of this, mostly to the downside, whether that be Ukraine, Taiwan, or a worsending housing/real estate market condition in China, etc.

Gold ready economic crisisThe inflation data and with the rise in interest rates we are seeing a USD strengthening with everyone but a recession has not yet been declared in the United States, something that could change everything especially for GOLD, which is the main refuge of value in the face of a crisis, we saw it in 2008 that exceeded maximums with the economic crisis, we saw it in 2020 with the health crisis exceeding maximums again. Now there is possibly a new economic crisis and right now we are experiencing the same as in 2008 with several layoffs in large companies and with quite high inflation, Powell said that it did not matter if real estate and the stock market fell, what matters to him is inflation .

DXY Makes New Highs After the FOMCThe DXY got a strong burst of momentum from yesterday's FOMC. Although we got our 75 bps hike (as expected), the press conference that followed was a lot more somber. Powell forecasted more hikes, despite the markets expectations of a more dovish forward guidance. This fueled an interest rate spike in treasuries, and bolstered the DXY's meteoric rally to break through highs and hit our target of 111.37 exactly. Recall that we have been projecting this level for weeks. Currently we are seeing a bit of a pullback which is anticipated. We should see support at 110.20, and potentially a sideways correction from here.

Stocks Make New Lows After the FOMCStocks got slammed yesterday, breaking through lows in the 3800's. We anticipated support at the base of the 3800 handle, but the S&P 500 broke down even lower, currently feeling out the highs of the 3700 handle. At this time, 3758 has provided support and we appear to be attempting a push back to the 3800's. The FOMC meeting came out more hawkish than expected. Although we did get the projected 75 bps hike, the rhetoric of Powell's press conference that followed was quite somber and the markets did not get the dovishness they expected. They've reacted accordingly with this selloff. If we are able to break through current levels then 3825 is the next target. If not, 3758 should hold as a floor for now.

XAUUSD - KOG REPORT - FOMC!KOG Report – FOMC This is our view for FOMC today, please do your own research and analysis to make an informed decision on the markets. It is not recommended you try to trade the event if you have less than 6 months trading experience and have a trusted risk strategy in place. The markets are extremely volatile and can cause aggressive swings in price. For this FOMC KOG Report we’re going to reference the KOG Report shared on Sunday where we said we would be looking for some form of relief rally in Gold. We suggested earlier in the month that we could potentially see this rally happening at some point during the last week of September, so for that reason we will be looking at the lower levels to go long. We have targets below which we would like to see completed before the move to the upside, what we want to see though is how the price reacts to these levels and where it creates its base. Our daily is already showing some bullish signs, however, the weekly is suggesting some more movement down is possible. A lot of traders will be sitting long here at the 200MA so a sweep of liquidity on the lows is very possible. For the reasons above, we’ll again be looking at the extreme levels to take entries with a plan to take this up towards the 1700+ price regions. Illustrated on the chart are the key support and resistance levels we feel they can tap into before swinging the move in the opposite direction! The first level we’re looking at is just below the 1650 psychological level where if we see a strong support we feel there will be an opportunity to take the long trade back up towards the 1680-95 price points. We’re going to keep it simple for this report as our plans are on the KOG reports and nothing has really changed, apart from the ranging price action that we’re witnessing pre-event. Its also possible that the market has priced in this release, in which case we will continue as we are. Please do support us by hitting the like button, leaving a comment, and giving us a follow.

SPY, Broad Markets & the FOMC PlaybookFOMC @ 2:00 PM EST reaction will see one of 3 Events: 1. 75BPS is priced - leading to a move higher to recent intra-week Highs. 2. 75BPS is priced - leading to a tighter range into Powell. 3. 100 - 125 BPS is not priced - leading to a breakdown and a VIXplosion to 31 and VIX Curve inversion. Powell's conviction @ 2:30 PM EST sets the Equity Complex in further motion of which there are 3 events: 1. Powell indicates the FED is making progress but needs to see further Data and intends to remain vigilant. 2. Powell indicates the FED sees further Risks to Inflation and needs to bring Fed Funds aggressively towards the Inflation Rate. 3. Powell indicates the FOMC's trend toward Higher Rates will need to remain consistent in order to maintain stability with November an important timeframe for the FED. ______________________________________________________________________ Nature abhors a Vacuum. As does the US Dollar - Any spike above 110 leads to 111.71s. Dot Plots, Terminal Rates... will all see an adjustment, one that has made higher velocity movements recently. The Yield Curve - with 1's over 4%, 2's approaching 4%, and a new Inversion dipping into prior lows and exceeding them @ - 0.487% - doubling the prior 2 most recent curve inversions. The Market Signals are quite clear - indicating the FED will raise 100BPS as a flood of Global Central Banks Rate decisions are set in motion this week and next. Competition is building among them. Powell will not be sanguine. That will not happen today IMHO. Powell will be direct in the extreme once again as the FED has no intention of back off until 8 months after their final rate increase. This is the history of Interest Rate Cycles - this one will be shorter and far more volatile than prior cycles. ______________________________________________________________________ Yes, we are at the lower end of the Risk Range, but nowhere near the lows. It is important to remember, RIsk compounds from elevated levels - which provides vacuous sucking sounds time and again. ______________________________________________________________________ Time favors the Spread, if you are using leverage, the October Monthly Expiry is the safer Trade into an October Straddle - direction neutrality the higher probability of profit. The tightest spread is preferred as the IV is elevated, should it come down, close the position as IV can move in either direction today, it is VIX Settlement. Lack of volatility - is the lowest probability providing the performance. The key to success is to close the position within a few days. I am taking ATH only. ______________________________________________________________________ Trade Safe & Good Luck.
