CAC40 Bullish breakout retest support at 7770The CAC40 price action sentiment appears Bullish, supported by the current rising trend. The recent intraday price action appears to be a consolidation breakout.
The key trading level is at the 7770 level, the previous consolidation price range. A corrective pullback from current levels and a bullish bounce back from the 7770 level could target the upside resistance at 7940, followed by the 7970 and 8000 levels over the longer timeframe.
Alternatively, a confirmed loss of the 7770 support and a daily close below that level would negate the bullish outlook, opening the way for a further retracement and a retest of the 7740 support level, followed by the 7700 levels.

US30 Update – 07/18/2025📍 US30 Update – 07/18/2025
Massive recovery off 43,929 👀
US30 has broken above the 44,500 resistance and is holding strong around 44,590. The EMAs are now sloping bullish on the 1H — this is the first solid bullish structure since the early July top.
If buyers hold above 44,500, we could see a run to retest 44,867, the local high.
📊 Market Structure:
🔄 Bear trend possibly shifting → early signs of reversal
📈 Higher lows forming — EMAs crossed bullish
🔼 Break of 44,505 confirmed strength
🧭 Eyes now on 44,700–44,867 zone
🔑 Key Levels:
🔼 Resistance: 44,700 → 44,867
🔽 Support: 44,505 → 44,285 → 43,929
🧠 Market Bias:
Short-term bullish — but buyers must defend 44,500.
A drop below 44,285 would invalidate this move.
💡 Trade Ideas:
🔼 Long Setup – Continuation:
Entry: Pullback to 44,505–44,530
TP1: 44,700
TP2: 44,850
SL: Below 44,450
🔻 Short Setup – Fade Rejection:
Entry: Rejection at 44,700–44,850
TP1: 44,500
TP2: 44,300
SL: Above 44,900
⚠️ Patience — wait for clean retests or candle rejections at key levels. No need to force entries.
US Dollar Index (DXY) Chart AnalysisUS Dollar Index (DXY) Chart Analysis
The addition of the US Dollar Index (DXY) to FXOpen’s suite of instruments offers traders potential opportunities. This financial instrument:
→ serves as a measure of the overall strength of the US dollar;
→ is not tied to a single currency pair but reflects the value of the USD against a basket of six major global currencies, including the EUR, JPY, and GBP;
→ allows traders to capitalise on price fluctuations in the currency market;
→ is used in more advanced strategies for hedging risks in portfolios sensitive to sharp movements in the US dollar.
In today’s environment of heightened volatility, this instrument becomes particularly valuable. The active stance of US President Donald Trump — through the implementation of trade tariffs, sanctions, and unpredictable geopolitical rhetoric — gives traders even more reason to closely monitor the DXY chart.
Technical Analysis of the DXY Chart
Moving averages show that the US Dollar Index displayed a predominantly bearish trend during the first half of 2025.
However, the picture shifted in July: the index began rising steadily (already up approximately +1.9% since the beginning of the month), highlighted by the blue ascending trend channel.
This suggests that the DXY may have found support following a prolonged decline, and a shift in market sentiment could be underway: after a bearish phase, a period of consolidation may follow. If this scenario plays out, we could see DXY oscillating between the 97.65 and 99.30 levels – both of which show signs of acting as support and resistance (as indicated by the arrows).

Dow Jones: Shaking amid rumors of Powell’s dismissalIon Jauregui – Analyst at ActivTrades
The main Wall Street indices closed Thursday’s session with mixed results. Comments from Trump stating he had no plans to fire Powell but “doesn’t rule anything out” except in cases of fraud, along with Powell’s declaration that he will serve his full term until mid-2026, pressured the market. The U.S. market has been dealing with these dismissal tensions for seven months, which made the Dow Jones appear weaker, while the S&P 500 and Nasdaq managed to stay in positive territory, supported by strong earnings from key companies. At the session’s start, the Dow Jones fell 0.09% to 44,202 points, while the S&P 500 rose 0.04% to 6,266 points and the Nasdaq gained 0.17% to 20,777 points. However, the Dow Jones closed at 44,484.49 points (+0.52%), the S&P 500 at 6,297.36 points (+0.54%), and the Nasdaq at 20,885.65 points (+0.75%). The day was marked by rumors from the White House, where an official stated that Trump would “probably soon” fire Jerome Powell. The news triggered an intraday drop of over 260 points in the Dow Jones, although markets later moderated losses after clarifications from the former president himself.
An early dismissal of Powell would likely impact the market very negatively and generate significant chaos. Trump’s interest in pressuring the Fed for rate cuts, although he cannot legally dismiss the central bank’s president, has been on the table since the start of his term. This has caused pronounced volatility movements. Meanwhile, the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield fell to 4.449%, as the market reduced the probability of a rate cut in September from 66% to 55% (CME FedWatch).
On the macroeconomic front, June retail sales rose 0.6%, far exceeding the expected 0.1%. Weekly jobless claims stood at 221,000, also below expectations. With these results, Trump has little leverage to challenge the Fed.
Notable corporate results:
PepsiCo surprised positively with EPS of $2.12 (vs. $2.03 expected) and rose 5.7% at the open.
United Airlines advanced 3.6%, beating earnings expectations with EPS of $3.87, although revenues slightly disappointed.
GE Aerospace raised its 2025 EPS forecast to a range of $5.60–5.80, driven by strong aftermarket demand.
Netflix reported after the close, with expectations of $7.09 EPS and $11.06 billion in revenue.
TSMC led chip sector gains, rising more than 3% after announcing record profits thanks to AI. AMD, NVIDIA, and Super Micro also traded higher.
Technical Analysis
Observing the Dow Jones daily chart (Ticker AT: USAIND), since late April the index has moved upward toward its long-term control zone around 42,230 points, where the Point of Control (POC) acts as support for the current rally. In recent days, candles have used the 50-day moving average as support. The price expansion that began on June 6 with a golden cross appears solid. The bullish delta pressure zones from February and last year’s Christmas rally coincide with the current trading zone, suggesting a potential fourth attempt to break the current all-time highs at 45,110.09 points in pursuit of 46,000. If this price area is not breached, a pullback toward the POC zone could occur, and if that level fails to hold, a drop toward 39,600 points may follow.

US 100 (NDQ) : Stay Heavy on Positions1) April Fear & Buy Signals
In early April, the Nasdaq 100 experienced a sharp sell-off, triggering extreme fear sentiment across the market.
At that point, scale-in buy signals appeared—classic "buy the fear" conditions.
2) Current Market State: No More Fear, but Watching
Since then, the market has stabilized.
The fear has disappeared, but we are still in a wait-and-see mode as traders assess the next move.
Momentum is holding, but participation remains cautious.
3) Stay Heavy on Positions
Despite short-term uncertainty, I’m maintaining an overweight position on the Nasdaq 100.
As long as we don’t see a major breakdown, the bias remains bullish.
S&P 500 H4 | Making a run towards a new ATH?The S&P 500 (SPX500) is falling towards a pullback support and could potentially bounce off this level to climb higher.
Buy entry is at 6,299.72 which is a pullback support.
Stop loss is at 6,195.00 which is a level that lies underneath a multi-swing-low support.
Take profit is at 6,369.28 which is a resistance that aligns with the 161.8% Fibonacci extension.

#NIFTY Intraday Support and Resistance Levels - 18/07/2025Nifty is likely to open slightly gap-up today near the 25100–25150 zone. There are no major changes from yesterday’s levels, so the same trading levels remain in focus for today’s session. If Nifty sustains above the 25250 level, we can expect an upside move toward 25350, 25400, and even 25450+ levels. This area remains a crucial resistance zone for potential bullish continuation.
On the downside, if Nifty fails to cross and sustain above 25250 and breaks below the 25200–25250 zone, we may witness a downward move with possible targets at 25150, 25100, and 25050.
A reversal long opportunity may arise in the 25050–25100 support zone if the market finds buying interest after a dip. From this level, we can expect targets around 25150, 25200, and 25250+.
The index is trading in a tight range with no fresh cues. Avoid aggressive entries and stick to level-based trades with strict stop-loss and partial profit booking.
[INTRADAY] #BANKNIFTY PE & CE Levels(18/07/2025)Bank Nifty is expected to open flat around the 56800 zone, suggesting indecision in the early session. If it manages to move upward and sustain above the 57050–57100 resistance range, it could invite bullish momentum targeting 57250, 57350, and even 57450+. A breakout above this level can trigger a continuation of upward movement, but volume and price confirmation are essential.
On the downside, if the index stays weak and slips below the 56950–56900 zone, we may see fresh bearish pressure pulling it toward 56750, 56650, and 56550 support levels. This zone remains a crucial intraday pivot for traders to watch.
A reversal opportunity may also emerge if the index drops further near 56550–56600 and then shows a sharp recovery. In such a case, targets of 56750, 56850, and 56950+ are possible, making it a good support-based bounce trade. Overall, the market might remain sideways with both opportunities for quick scalps and reversals—focus on key levels and act with strict stop losses.

Risk environment to remain positive? S&P continuation?Despite all the recent tariff concerns, inflation concerns and Middle East worries. The S&P continues to push all tine highs. And 'risk surprises' not withstanding, is likely to do so. Backed up by a solid start to ratings season, especially from Netflix.
In the currency space, that should mean the JPY remains weak. And I'm cutoutting recent JPY strength due to profit taking ahead of weekend elections. But moving into the new week, i'll be looking for JPY short opportunities.
