Trump Expect and detect about China and JpyIn early February, Donald Trump accused China and Japan of currency manipulation. Associated with his campaign promise to brand China a currency manipulator on his first day in office, the market remains deeply worried that Trump could use this as a justification for introducing punitive trade actions against China.
In the next two pages we discover that China does not qualify as a currency manipulator, using the US’ own criteria. In fact, no country in Asia can be justifiably called that. Nonetheless, the fact will not necessarily stop Trump in carrying out protectionist policies.
Economic nationalism is set to rise in the US. It continues to pose a large growth risk to the export-dependent economies in Asia. Thus,
we remain cautious on these currencies. We also look pessimistically at the MYR due to the country’s large and rising external funding need and the sensitivity to the USD strength. Our relatively bearish picks : SGD, KRW, TWD and MYR Our relatively bullish picks: INR and THB

Gold Intraday Trade ideaMajor resistance - $1188
Major support - $1152 (200- H MA)
The yellow metal has made a high of $1183 and declined sharply from that level. It is currently trading around $1174.
US 10- year bond yield shown a slight jump till 2.42% from low of 2.34% after US Non farm payrolls.The yield is trading slightly below 2.45% (200- HMA) and a break above confirms 2.52%. It is currently trading around 2.42%.
Gold major resistance is around $1188 (Dec 5th high) and any break above targets $1200 in the short term.
On the lower side, immediate support is around $1172 (60- H EMA) and any indicative break below targets $1161 (61.8% retracement of $1145 and $1188)/$1156 (200- HMA).
It is good to sell on rallies around $1175-77 with SL around $1185 for the TP of $1161/$1156.

I am expecting a down turn during the next week which would last until late February and another leg up in SPX until the final move down in August 2017.
Trend line colors mark the same conditions on both cycles.
TNX SPX and the CPIThe divergence between stocks and bonds is the key. Stocks can't hold at present level if interest rates, as measured by the 10 years treasury, continue their path to higher grounds. On a short term basis my target is 2.49, which would completely erase the preceding 5th. A bad CPI number (out tomorrow before opening) could certainly do the trick.
More on the TNX long term view later.
Stay tuned and happy trading.
Shorter term bearish on the TNX with a longer term bullish viewWe like the short side of the 10 year treasury note for a bearish move to the 1.59 level as a target. Price action could continue higher to 1.73 from current levels, but the 1.59 should be achieved before a longer term bullish move is sustained. So on the longer term scale, we are bullish for price action to make a move for the 2.11 level, which could be reached by year end 2016.
US 10-year yield at major crossroadsThe TNX should be watched very closely next week as the daily chart currently indicates a high risk of seeing another bond rally in the wake of the latest US employment figures (which weren't all that bad). If doubts over a possible Fed rate hike towards the end of the year strengthen in September, the 10-year yield could fall back to it's historical lows, reached earlier this summer. This trade setup currently suggests that so long as the TNX trades sub 1.65%, bond prices are likely to rebound in September. The other scenario would consist in prices breaking support, perhaps in the wake of hawkish comments by FOMC participants, leading to a new period of rising rates similar to that which we saw in 2013 and 2015.
Update: 10 Year T-Note Yield: Rates Fell From 1.64% To 1.56%This is an update to a chart I published yesterday (Sunday) for 10 Year T-Note Yields.
Because the Fed struck fear in to the credit markets last Friday, I maintained that rates were not going to spike. Why?
The charts I looked at had digested the Fed-Speak and didn't show much conviction.
This is a 30 minute chart for-TNX.
You can see that rates have fallen. Here is what I see on this chart:
1. Rates are coming back from a news induced event.
2. Alligator jaws now feeding in down-trend.
3. Chop indicator (under chart) (this indicates a trend or choppy action) is below the 38.2 shaded area, indicating a trending asset , which is trending DOWN.
4. Phase energy (lower top indicator) is heading lower (multiple consecutive red bars and the action is BELOW the zero line).
5. Momentum (middle top indicator) is the 5/34 measure, and this is heading sideways to DOWN.
6. Prices are trading into the Ichimoku Cloud .
7. Prices are trading below the thick red Ichimoku Cloud conversion line.
8. Prices are trading below the Ki jun-Sen baseline of the Ichimoku Cloud.
So, believe it or not, the sky is not falling. Not yet, any way. Good luck to you. Don.
