Market indices
Dollar Index Seems BullishFrom the previous week candle we see that Dollar Index has closed bullish. And in this scenario we can expect Dxy to go further higher. It has hit the previous week high and touched supply zone residing above. The two possibilities have shown in the chart are
1: After touching supply zone we expect to have deeper pullback.
2: It will have short retracement and then continues hgiher.

DXY HEAD & SHOULDER TARGET INSIGHT? The dollar index has printed a head & shoulder pattern on the hourly chart and while it's in resistance zone of initial target, there is momentum building up to push through to next target of 97.912. This is supported by a golden cross on the 1H timeframe. The target at 97.912 also closes a window that was left open on June 24th, 2025. This trade has a low risk to high reward ratio. Cheers and Best of trading to everyone
$SPXSP:SPX Update:
Rumors of Powell possibly resigning as Fed Chair have created uncertainty among buyers.
But if inflation stays low even with tariffs we might see longer holds.
If Powell does step down, markets could actually rally on hopes of upcoming rate cuts.
📉📈
Now we wait for the inflation report…

Is the Nasdaq in a bubble?On the monthly timeframe, there are no signs of an over-extended, parabolic condition for the Nasdaq Composite(IXIC).
It's interesting to note that for a 25 year period from 1974 to 1999 the overall trend was roughly a positive 23 degree angled climb. We see that again in the current 16 year trend that started in 2009.
Much steeper parabolic periods can be seen in shorter time frames like the 1998-2000 move, where the angle reached 70 degrees. That didn't end well. It's also worth noting that in 1982 and 2020 we saw similar behavior, though slightly less frothy. Both of those periods were also followed by significant retracements.
Maybe we are at the beginning of one of those multi-month, over-extended runs. But not seeing it today. If we are trading at 45,000 or more in 2026, that's a different story...
possibility of downtrendIt is expected that the upward trend will advance to the specified resistance range and then we will see a change in trend and the beginning of the downtrend.
If the index crosses the resistance range and consolidates above this range, the continuation of the upward trend will be likely.
DXY 4Hour TF - July 13th, 2025DXY 7/13/2025
DXY 4hour Neutral Idea
Monthly - Bearish
Weekly - Bearish
Dailly - Bearish
4hour - Ranging
Keep in mind, we analyze and follow DXY more so as an indicator. The USD makes up for a large portion of trade so it makes sense to analyze it.
Going into this week we can see DXY made an attempt to push higher. Where it closed on Friday is a major zone around 98.000. We’re still majorly bearish on higher time frames so we will keep that in mind throughout this week.
As always, we will mark up two potential paths for this week, they are as follows:
Bullish Breakout - The two main zones we want to bring out attention to are 98.000 resistance and 97.500 support. We will have to wait until price action leaves this area to spot a high quality setup. Look for a convincing push above 98.000 resistance followed by a retest of 98.000 but as support. Look for a higher low to form with bullish confirmation to long on.
Bearish Continuation- Going bearish is still very possible we just need to clear 97.500 support first. Look for a break below 97.500 with a confirmed lower high and convincing bearish setups to short on.
SPX: earnings sentiment aheadPrevious week was another optimistic week on financial markets. Regarding the approaching deadline for a delay in the application of trade tariffs set by the US Administration, which came due on July 9th, the market did not show much of a concern. The green trend line of the S&P 500 continued during the week, where the index managed to reach another new all time highest level on Thursday, at 6.290. During the previous week there has not been any currently important US macro data posted, in which sense, the market sentiment remained optimistic. However, Friday's news regarding trade tariffs spoiled a bit of an up-trend, so the index ended the week, just a bit lower from its ATH level, at 6.259.
Weekly tariffs news include a 35% imposed tariffs on imports from Canada, and 50% on goods imported from Brazil in the U.S. There are also some comments on a potential increased universal 10% tariff on the majority of other nations, noting 15% and 20%, as well as a 50% tariff on copper. Analysts are noting that the market is already adjusted to the comments regarding trade tariffs, in which sense, there are no more strong market reactions on any incoming news.
The week ahead brings some important US macro data, as well as gearing up for the earnings season, starting with major banks like JPMorgan. The June inflation data as well as PPI will be posted in the week ahead, closing with University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment. This data might bring back some volatility to the S&P 500, however, the general investors sentiment remains positive at this moment.
