AUS200 Weekly 3.4.24Weekly Idea based on Multi timeframes Highs and Lows, OB's and IB's Sell Entry is a possible pivot point where price can reject off and continue to the upside. by MsLionhill111
ASX200 - Breakout! Target 10800After the v-shaped recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, we have seen a rally to the 7650 handle, where the market went sideways for the later 100-plus weeks. The accumulation stage is about to end as the 7650 resistance price was finally broken. The RSI is above 4o and moving above 60, which indicates bull market conditions. The composite index has shown a bullish divergence with price, also found in RSI. The Gann time count of 144 weeks from the prior high, is almost complete and should align will the Gann boxes count of 1 complete Octave. Furthermore, the 144-week bullish wedge formation forming in the chart. A calculation of a possible target is 10,000 points, using Fibonacci extensions, but more likely 10800 using Gann box techniques. Longby TRADER-RI1

EURUSD - NZDUSD - AUS200 Trade RecapThree positions taken last week, two breakevens and one loss. Great trades nonetheless, two structures I would take over and over again with the EURUSD position being on the higher risk side of things.

The RBA to join the rate cut party in May?Aus Q4 CPI came in at 4.1% yoy, with the trimmed mean measure at 4.2% yoy – both were nicely below the economist's median forecast, and importantly below the RBA’s own forecasts of 4.5% for both metrics. We also saw the more timely monthly (December) CPI print coming in at 3.4%; a 90bp improvement – and just 40bp away from the 2-3% target band. Next week’s RBA meeting looms large, and the tone of the statement should reflect a bank seeing inflation moving towards target, yet they will make it clear this is no time for victory laps and more needs to be done. The RBA will be enthused by the fact core inflation is below the RBA’s cash rate – subsequently, we have a positive real cash rate for the first time since 2016 - this is a small but welcomed victory for Bullock and co. With both core and headline CPI nicely below the November Statement on Monetary Policy forecasts, we question the possibility of tweaks to their projections for June and December 2024 CPI. These currently sit at 4% by June and 3.5% by December, so any revisions to these estimates could result in some solid movement in interest rate futures and by extension the AUD and AUS200. Aussie economic data has generally come in below market consensus expectations of late, so the pricing of expected RBA policy – through interest rate futures - has been part-validated in today’s CPI print. Looking at Aussie interest rate futures, the market prices no chance of a 25bp cut in either the February or March RBA meeting, and if anything, the RBA statements at these meetings need to lay the groundwork for cuts – although the tone of the guidance will be data-dependent. While much of the disinflation has been driven by tradables, a 25bp cut in May is a real possibility and the market prices this at 50% - so essentially a coin toss. We see two 25bp cuts priced by year-end. Eyes on Gov Bullock Gov Bullock speaks next Friday (09:30 AEDT) and while she speaks after the RBA meeting statement and SoMP (both on Tuesday 14:30 AEDT) her testimony will be scrutinized and will move interest rate pricing, and by extension the AUD. I think we’ll have a fair idea of the timeline for potential policy easing from here. Gov Bullock has a straightforward job – time rate cuts perfectly. Obviously, that’s easy to say but tough to do in principle but if we focus on the capital markets, we see little risk of an implied policy mistake and we see the ASX200 at all-time highs, with bank equity and consumer-sensitive stocks in rude health. AUD 1-month implied volatility resides at 12-month lows, while the Aussie housing market shows few concerns. I guess this is an issue with setting policy on quarterly core inflation -it is a slow-moving beast and clearly a lagging indicator the fact it is still 120bp from target feels like a hawkish Bullock may keep the peddle to the metal for now. The market will put more weight on the monthly CPI reads. I also consider the frequency of central bank speeches, and this is where the RBA, the ECB and the Fed differ in a big way – In Australia, we simply don’t have the plethora of central bankers that speak almost every day, and it's often a long time between drinks for the RBA speeches. This is quite refreshing, but in times like this it can be useful to know how each member stands, giving almost real-time commentary on policy. Anyhow, the markets speak out – the door is ajar for a cut in May but easing will be gradual relative to the Fed, ECB, and other G10 CBs. We also see the floor in the RBA cash rate priced at 3.5%, so loosely four 25bp cuts are priced to a ‘terminal’ level. The RBA won't try and keep pace with the Fed, they will work on their own merit and focus on their set of economics – either way, the trajectory for CPI suggests we will join the rate cut party and a ‘soft landing’ seems to be the more probable outcome, at least judging by the message from the markets.

AUS200 – 7632.8 in our sightsWhile the AUS200 revisits the all-time highs set in Aug 2021, the index absorbs a positive mix of sentiment towards global risk, as well as local factors, and many question if this time around we see the illustrious bullish break the bulls are positioned for. While global macro issues remain paramount, one catalyst to look towards is ASX200 1H24 earnings, with Amcor kicking the season into gear (6 Feb) and JBH (due 12 Feb) one that CFD traders will be keen to focus on. CSL (13 Feb) and CBA (14 Feb) report shortly after and both could influence sentiment with their outlooks. The Aussie banks are driving the market from an index points perspective, with materials also finding form. Importantly, we see the ASX200 bank index is flying high at present and until we see the bullish tape in the banks give way, index volatility will remain subdued, and traders will be skewed to buy weakness in the Aussie equity index.

Is the ASX 200 about to roll over?Looking at the weekly chart, bulls may have something to worry about. The market is yet to even test 7500 let alone break above it, and each time it has tried (and failed) to do so, the ASX has fallen by double digits in percentage terms. A bearish engulfing candle formed in the first week of the year after once again faltering at those cycle highs. And if we're to see even just a 10% drop from the 2024 high it could, the index will find itself back beneath 7000. But if bears really get their way for another -16% drop, the ASX will be back around 6400. What could make that happen? Well, markets have been aggressively pricing in 5 - 7 Fed cuts this year which may not arrive. And if the wheels fall off the global economy to justify said cuts, that could also be bad for the stock market. So bulls may want to ask themselves if they want to be along at these levels, where the market is yet to every trade above it. As we could be in for a deeper pullback at the very least.Shortby CityIndex2
China Property Stimulus to Boost Aus200 IndexThe recent announcement of a stimulus package by the Chinese government to boost the property sector is expected to have a positive impact on the Australian stock market, particularly the Aus200 index. The stimulus package includes measures such as lower down payments for home purchases and tax breaks for developers. These measures are expected to increase demand for property in China, which will in turn benefit Australian companies that export goods and services to the Chinese market. In addition, the stimulus package is also expected to boost the Chinese economy, which is Australia's largest trading partner. A stronger Chinese economy will mean more demand for Australian goods and services, which will support corporate profits and earnings growth. As a result, the Aus200 index is expected to rise in the coming months. Of course, there are also some risks associated with the China property stimulus. If the stimulus is too successful, it could lead to an overheating of the Chinese economy and a resurgence of inflation. This would be negative for Australian companies that export to China, as it would make their goods and services less competitive. However, at this stage, it appears that the risks are outweighed by the potential rewards. Overall, the China property stimulus is a positive development for the Australian stock market. The stimulus is expected to boost demand for Australian goods and services, support corporate profits and earnings growth, and lift the Aus200 index. Longby SabahEquityResearchUpdated 119

ASX200 forming a bullish flagThe ASX200 is in the process of creating a bullish flag on the 1-hour chart following a downward movement. Additionally, a bullish divergence is taking shape, providing confirmation of a reversal from the preceding downtrend.

$ASX200 once again unable to break through resistance level#ASX200 has tried numerous times to break and hold above the $7,500-7,600 level, with no success. This resistance zone has shown to be resilient, but these levels tend to eventually be broken.

expect a pullbackWars are inflationary. so expect interest rates to keep rising in 2024 (even tho they are negative in real terms) higher rates means lower share prices. lets see how the central planners react to the war and the goal is always to inflate asset prices but the problem now is the inflation can not be hidden by cheap asian labour anymore. The rise of Asia means there is now a wealthy middle class who are no longer willing to slave away making cheap throw away goods for the regime. buy more BBOZ.... Shortby RogueCleaner3
