In this blog, we&#39;ll explore the key advantages that set MC Prime apart and why it&#39;s the ideal choice for both novice and experienced traders.&nbsp;<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;, serif; background-color: transparent; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">&nbsp;&nbsp;<ul style="padding-inline-start: 48px;" class=" list-paddingleft-2"><li><span style="background-color: transparent; font-weight: 700; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; text-wrap: wrap; font-size: 18px;">High Leverage</li></ul><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;, serif; background-color: transparent; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">One of the most significant benefits of trading with MC Prime is the platform&#39;s high leverage options. Leverage allows traders to control a large position with a relatively small initial outlay so that they can amplify their market exposure and potentially maximize their profits. With MC Prime, you are able to leverage up to 1:1000. For example, you can reap the gains on 1000 stocks while putting down the price of just one stock. However, it&#39;s important to note that high leverage also amplifies risks, and MC Prime emphasizes the responsible use of leverage to manage risk effectively.&nbsp;<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;, serif; background-color: transparent; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">&nbsp;&nbsp;<ul style="padding-inline-start: 48px;" class=" list-paddingleft-2"><li><span style="background-color: transparent; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; text-wrap: wrap; font-size: 18px;">Zero Commission and Low Spreads</li></ul><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;, serif; background-color: transparent; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">MC Prime&#39;s commitment to providing a transparent and cost-effective trading environment is evident in its zero-commission structure and low-spread offerings.

The Dow added 0.28%, the S&amp;P edged 0.06% higher, while the Nasdaq drifted 0.10% lower. There was some more volatility across other financial products; the dollar and Treasury yields took a hit as tariff concerns continued to weigh on sentiment. The DXY fell 0.69% to 98.92, while the 2-year Treasury yield dropped 5.5 basis points to 3.693%, and the 10-year fell 2.7 basis points to 4.208%. Oil prices tanked on demand concerns, with Brent off 1.72% to $66.72 and WTI down 1.76% to $61.91 a barrel, whilst gold found good buying interest to move back towards recent highs, up 0.47% to $3,342.60 an ounce.<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Oil to Remain Under Pressure<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Oil prices, alongside most financial products, have been volatile over the last few months and particularly over the last few weeks after Trump’s ‘Liberation Day’, and traders are expecting to see volatility remain higher in the medium term, even if we see a calming in other products. We have seen a good drop in oil prices in the last few months, and it does feel like forces are aligning to keep ‘black gold’ under pressure in the medium term. Certainly, tariff implementation and further threats have influenced global growth concerns, and oil is always one of the first to take a hit in those circumstances, but it is also under pressure from the supply side, with OPEC+ countries expecting a pickup in production increases in the next few months. We have seen over 30% wiped off the value of WTI since the start of the year, and unless we see some serious changes in overall market sentiment, expect it to remain under pressure for the foreseeable future.<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Economic Calendar Picks Up Today<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The global economic calendar starts to pick up today and then speeds up over the next few days, culminating in the key Non-Farms data on Friday. The Asian session is set to be fairly quiet today with little on the event calendar, and despite federal election results coming through from Canada in the session, the loonie is expected – and so far, has been – relatively quiet. It is also relatively quiet in the London session today, although euro traders will keep a close eye on Spanish Flash CPI data (exp. +2.0%) early in the day. Things should start to get interesting on the New York open, though, with the first of four major US jobs updates due out early in the session in the form of the JOLTS Job Openings data (exp. 7.48 mio). This is released alongside the CB Consumer Confidence data (exp. 87.4), with investors expected to monitor both closely for tariff influences.

The Dow led the way higher, closing up 0.75% on the day, followed by the S&amp;P and Nasdaq, which rose 0.58% and 0.55% respectively. The dollar gained some ground against the majors, the DXY up 0.16%, while Treasury yields fell again on increased hopes of a Fed rate cut—the 2-year off 4.3 basis points to 3.650% and the 10-year down 3.7 basis points to 4.172%. Oil prices crashed back to 2-week lows, Brent down 2.93% to $63.93 and WTI down 2.63% to $60.42. Gold also fell lower, down 0.77% on the day, to close at $3,315.63.<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-weight: 700; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Major Currencies Prepped for Big Moves<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">FX traders are preparing for a big few days ahead as key data out of the United States is due to drop, and many of the major pairs are sitting at key technical levels. The greenback has taken a huge hit in the last few weeks after President Trump’s ‘Liberation Day’ as tariff fears have dominated flow. However, fundamental data due out in the next few days could see those moves either corrected strongly or pushed even further. Most of the major currencies are now sitting, given recent volatility, close to dollar lows, and a succession of poor numbers out of the States—particularly in jobs numbers and inflation—could see those levels break and moves accelerate to the downside for the dollar. Stronger numbers could reassure markets that the US economy is still running strongly, pull back expectations of Fed rate cuts, and see majors pull back into recent ranges.<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-weight: 700; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Full Event Calendar Day Ahead for Traders<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The macroeconomic calendar is full of updates today that should see the market focus transfer to fundamentals, away from geopolitical updates. The Asia session kicks off with key data releases out of Australia and China scheduled at the same time. Australian CPI data (exp. 0.8% q/q and 2.3% y/y) and Chinese PMI data (Manufacturing exp. 49.7 and Non-Manufacturing exp. 50.6) both have the propensity to move their respective markets, and we could see some sharp moves if they miss expectations. There will be more focus on inflation once London opens, with German CPI data (exp. 0.3%) due out throughout the day on a state-by-state basis. But the real hits will come once New York opens, as we have a huge data drop in the US with ADP non-farms (exp. 114k), Advance GDP (exp. 0.2%), Employment Cost Index (exp. 0.9%), and the Core PCE Price Index (exp. 0.1%) all due for release during the session, as well as Canadian GDP data (exp. 0.0%).

The Dow edged just 0.05% higher by the close, but tech stocks helped to pull the S&amp;P up 0.74%, and the Nasdaq up 1.26%, to better levels. The dollar also edged higher against the majors, with the havens again hit the hardest, the DXY up 0.06% to 99.47. Treasury yields took a dip, the 2-year dropping 4.9 basis points to 3.748% and the 10-year off 8 basis points to close out at 4.235%. Oil prices pushed higher on Friday in quieter trading conditions, Brent up 0.48% to $66.87 and WTI up 0.37% to $63.02, whilst gold dropped on trade hopes, down 0.85% on the day to close out the week at $3,318.22 an ounce.<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap; font-size: 18px;">Magnificent 7 in Focus this Week<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap; font-size: 18px;"> <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">US stocks have experienced a strong rebound after suffering early in the month to recover nearly all of their losses on the indices; however, these moves will likely be put to the test in the coming days with some key members of the ‘Magnificent Seven’ due to report earnings. Microsoft, Meta, Amazon, and Apple are all due to update the market this week, and a consistent trend from these major players could see strong moves in the market. Last week’s results were generally mixed, and if that pattern continues, expect indices to remain bid on growth hopes; however, if we see a strong bias, either higher or lower, then this could set a new trend for the coming weeks.<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap; font-size: 18px;">Quiet Calendar Day to Kick off a Busy Week<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap; font-size: 18px;"> <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">It should be another interesting week ahead for global financial markets, with many investors hoping that we see the focus moving away from pure trade talk and back over to fundamentals. Investors will likely use today’s trading sessions to assess the plethora of recent updates we have had to plan longer-term positions. There is little on the schedule for the first two trading sessions of the day, and it is a similar story in the US session, although Canadian Federal Elections will keep those north of the border on their toes if voting doesn’t go as planned. This does change as we progress through the week, with big US jobs, inflation numbers, and earnings reports due, as well as the Bank of Japan rate call, which could lift volatility again.<div><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> </div>

Market Analysis – 28/04/25

US Markets Rally as Investors Look to Fed – Nasdaq up 2.7% US stock indices rallied well in trading yesterday as investors looked to the Fed for earlier rate cuts and earnings results delivered a mixed bag. Tech stocks led the way after Alphabet delivered a solid earnings report, with the Nasdaq closing up 2.74%. The S&amp;P added 2.03% on the day, while the Dow gained 1.23%. The dollar dropped after the previous day’s optimistic rally, with the DXY down 0.44% to 99.31, whilst Treasury yields fell on Fed comments hinting at a June cut—the 2-year off 7.4 basis points to 3.797% and the benchmark 10-year down 6.7 basis points to 4.315%. Oil prices moved higher on the back of the weaker greenback, with Brent up 0.64% to $66.54 and WTI up 0.84% to $62.79. Gold rallied 1.84% to $3,348.23 after its loss on the previous day. Markets Poised for Moves Either Side Markets seem to have hit a nervous patch in the last few days, with the initial euphoria from potential tariff reprieves replaced by tension about the details and timing of any moves. Investors are now craving certainty from the US administration on what tariffs will be implemented, with most now almost hoping for another ‘Trump Board Session’, similar to Liberation Day, where we are told exactly what the real tariffs will be. Many products are now trading in a ‘volatile limbo’ state, with flows still moving markets strongly due to recent volatility. However, most moves are lacking clear conviction, as the market still lacks certainty, but expect new trends to emerge in the near future when we do get more details on trade deals—with lower tariffs and more certainty likely to lead to more relief rallies. Data and Geopolitics to Dominate into the Weekend It looks like being another lively end to the week as traders face data updates throughout the trading day and remain glued to news screens for any fresh updates on global trade. The Asian session is due to start on the front foot after a good day on Wall Street, and focus will be on Japanese markets early in the day when key Tokyo CPI data is released—expected to show a hefty 3.2% year-on-year increase. The European session also looks busy, with UK Retail Sales data due out (exp. -0.3% m/m) and SNB Chairman Martin Schlegel due to speak. The New York session will see initial focus north of the border for Canadian Retail Sales numbers (exp. -0.4% m/m and Core -0.1% m/m) before dropping back south for any updates on tariffs and the University of Michigan revised data updates.

President Trump advised that China may have a new tariff rate within the next two or three weeks, and investors responded positively. The Dow gained 1.07%, the S&amp;P 1.67%, and the Nasdaq jumped 2.50%. The dollar also had another positive day, with the DXY up 0.34% to 99.82, with haven currencies again on the receiving end. Treasury yields were mixed, the 2-year up 7.4 basis points to 3.871%, and the 10-year down 2 basis points to 4.381%. Oil prices fell on a report that OPEC+ will increase production further, with Brent down 1.97% to $66.11 and WTI down 2.20% to $62.27. Gold took another hit as more haven selling hit the market on the more positive sentiment, down 2.92% on the day to $3,287.63 an ounce.<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-weight: 700; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Dollar Bounces Again on More Trade Optimism<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The US dollar gained back some of its recent huge losses in trading again yesterday as calmer heads seem to be prevailing in the US government with regard to trade tariffs, as well as the pullback on threats to fire Fed Chair Jerome Powell. The dollar index (DXY) has sunk over 6% this month and over 11% from peak to trough on the year, and still looks under pressure from a technical perspective. It has rallied just over 2% in the last couple of days after recent updates, but traders feel that the next few days could be pivotal with regard to its medium-term future. A solid Federal Reserve Bank that has been resolute in rate cut expectations should lead to strength for the greenback, and an easing of tariffs should have the same effect. Whereas any further angst against the central bank or implementation of strong tariffs should see it fall further.<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-weight: 700; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Geopolitics Still in Focus Today<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The Asian session should start the day on a positive footing again after Wall Street had another strong day on much more optimistic headlines with regard to tariffs. There is little on the schedule to affect that momentum in the first trading session of the day, and investors will be hoping that the relative euphoria continues. It is a similar story in the European session today, with just the German IFO Business Climate data due out, although this is expected to have dropped from last month’s reading – down to 85.1 from 86.7. The New York session does have some key data due out, with the Weekly Unemployment Claims numbers expected to print 222k and Durable Goods showing a tariff-influenced 2.1% month-on-month increase, although once again any updates from the President and government are set to dominate sentiment.<div><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> </div>

The Nasdaq led the way higher, closing the day up 2.77%, erasing a similar loss from the day before, while the S&amp;P gained 2.51% and the Dow rose 2.66%. The dollar also managed a good rally, with the DXY up 0.71% to 98.99, while haven currencies—the yen and Swiss franc—took big hits. US Treasury yields were mixed after Donald Trump advised that he has no intention of firing Jerome Powell. The 2-year was up 5.4 basis points to 3.817%, while the 10-year slid 1.2 basis points to 4.399%. Oil prices rallied as US sanctions hit Iran, with Brent up 1.55% to $67.29 and WTI up 1.76% to $63.49. Gold had a big day, initially rallying to another record level at $3,500 before crashing in later sessions to ultimately finish down 1.19% on the day at $3,380.41 an ounce.<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Start of a Haven Unwind??<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Some traders are asking if we are about to see a strong run of haven trades unwinding in the next few days as trade deal optimism sweeps the market, or if last night’s moves are just a brief flicker of silver lining in the clouds of a longer-running trade war. Major haven trades—gold, yen, and Swiss franc—all saw big moves last night, and traders are now looking to see if a top has been put in place or if these moves are just going to give us better levels to buy. Gold has rallied over 18% in the face of tariff announcements this month, while USDJPY sank 7% and USDCHF dropped over 9%. We have just seen some good relief rallies from risk in all these products—gold down 1.2% on the day and nearly 5% from its record high, with USDJPY and USDCHF up 2.4% and 2.8% respectively from their recent lows. The next 24 hours could be crucial for all these products, with any updates from affected parties likely to see equally big moves in either direction.<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Macroeconomic Calendar in Focus Today<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Geopolitical updates continue to dominate market moves in the current environment, but traders will see a focus move back to underlying fundamentals today as the macroeconomic calendar picks up after a quiet few days. The Asian session is expected to start on the front foot after a strong surge on Wall Street overnight, and there is little on the event calendar to disturb that momentum. However, a raft of Flash PMI numbers across the rest of the trading day will have investors analyzing data to see what damage tariffs have done to purchasing managers’ confidence. We have Flash Services and Manufacturing data due out from Australia, France, Germany, the EU, the UK, and the US, as well as New Home Sales numbers in the States. With several central bankers set to speak, including the Fed’s Goolsbee and Waller, as well as Bank of England Governor Andrew Bailey, we could be in for another lively day’s trading.<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> <div><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> </div>

All three of the major indices finished sharply lower: the Dow dropped 2.48%, the S&amp;P lost 2.36%, and the Nasdaq closed 2.55% in the red. The dollar took a big hit, with the DXY losing 0.71% on the day, taking it down to 98.37—levels not seen for over three years. Treasury yields were mixed, with the 2-year dropping 3.6 basis points to 3.762%, whilst longer dates rallied, the benchmark 10-year closing up 8.6 basis points at 4.411%. Oil prices dipped on news that there has been progress in talks between the US and Iran—Brent down 2.1% to $66.53 and WTI down 2.47% to $63.08. Gold prices surged higher yet again on the weaker dollar and increased market uncertainty after Trump’s comments, up 2.7% to yet another all-time high, closing the session at $3,424.19 an ounce.<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap; font-size: 18px;">Trump Hurting US Markets Again<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Both US stocks and the dollar took a big hit in trading yesterday as President Trump launched another attack on Jerome Powell and the Fed for not cutting interest rates. The irony, of course, is that the Fed was fully expected to be in an easing cycle now, but they have pushed rate cut expectations back due to Trump’s aggressive stance on trade, which has greatly increased inflation fears. Investors have reacted strongly again to the latest comments from the Oval Office, which are now putting doubts on the independence of the Federal Reserve and threats from Trump on Powell’s position. This is only adding more uncertainty to global markets—and more particularly, US markets—and traders are preparing for more volatility and potential downside moves in the days ahead.<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap; font-size: 18px;">Volatility to Remain High as Major Centers Return<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Traders are expecting volatility to remain elevated today as several major trading centers return from a long weekend break to digest the latest geopolitical updates out of the US. The macroeconomic calendar is relatively quiet again, but Asian bourses are expected to start out on the back foot after another bad day on Wall Street. There are no Tier 1 data releases scheduled in the European session; however, Euro traders will be glued to screens midway through the day, with ECB President Christine Lagarde due to be interviewed. The New York session has just the Richmond Manufacturing Index data due out (exp -6.0) early in the day, but we also hear from Fed members Jefferson, Harker, and Kashkari during the day, and investors will be keen to see if there is much of a response to President Trump’s attack.<div><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> </div>

The decline was largely driven by renewed trade tensions following the U.S. government&#39;s announcement of increased tariffs on several Asian countries. <hr/> <span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: 700; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap; font-size: 18px;">Trade Policy Uncertainty Spurs Market Volatility<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: 700; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> On April 2, the U.S. implemented “reciprocal tariffs,” with rates on some Asian imports jumping from 54% to 125%. Although a few nations were granted temporary exemptions, the overall shift triggered heightened market concerns over global trade stability. <hr/> <span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: 700; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap; font-size: 18px;">Fed Maintains Wait-and-See Approach<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: 700; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> Despite recent hawkish remarks from Fed Chair Jerome Powell—citing inflation risks from rising tariffs—markets remain uncertain about the central bank’s next moves. Powell stated that the Fed would require “greater clarity” before adjusting policy. San Francisco Fed President Mary Daly also noted that while rate cuts are still possible later this year, rising inflation and trade policy uncertainty may reduce the likelihood of aggressive easing. <hr/> <span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: 700; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap; font-size: 18px;">Technical Pressure Builds on USD<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: 700; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> Following the break below the key psychological level of 100, the DXY may remain under pressure, especially if trade risks persist and the Fed leans toward easing. The index could test late-2021 support levels in the near term. <hr/> <span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: 700; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap; font-size: 18px;">Summary:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: 700; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> The USD faces dual pressure from trade policy shifts and market expectations for rate cuts.

The Fed Chair said, “The level of the tariff increases announced so far is significantly larger than anticipated. The same is likely to be true of the economic effects, which will include higher inflation and slower growth.” The Dow dropped 1.73%, the S&amp;P 2.20%, and the Nasdaq dumped 3.07%. Treasury markets focused on the growth comment, with yields dropping down the curve—the 2-year off 7.6 basis points to 3.769%, and the 10-year down 5.7 basis points to 4.276%. Meanwhile, the dollar continued to fall, the DXY trading back towards the annual low, down 0.78% to 99.28. Oil prices spiked on news that the US has issued fresh sanctions on Chinese imports of Iranian oil—Brent up 2.03% to $65.98 and WTI up 2.09% to $62.61—whilst gold continued to break new records, up 3.59% to $3,341.63 an ounce.<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap; font-size: 18px;">Dollar Remains Out of Favour<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The US dollar has taken a beating over the last couple of weeks, as President Trump’s higher-than-expected tariffs have led to a large restructuring of portfolios, with investors attempting to digest the implications on the global economy. Normally a safe haven trade in times of global distress, the market has interpreted the US tariffs as leading to much slower growth in the US, and the dollar has fallen swiftly out of favour after an initial rally following “Liberation Day.” In effect, the tariff update backfired for an administration which still favours a strong dollar, and the Liberation was really opening the door of the cage of dollar bears to then smash the market. The DXY now sits close to its annual low again as we approach a low-liquidity long weekend, and unless we see a strong change of direction in the coming days, the dollar could sink further into fresh ranges against most of the majors.<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap; font-size: 18px;">Another Busy Calendar Day to Close the Full Trading Week<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Traders are preparing for another busy and volatile day ahead as they continue to battle geopolitical updates and a full macroeconomic event calendar before the long weekend. The Asian session has already seen a slightly higher-than-expected New Zealand CPI print, and now focus will move across the Tasman for Australian employment data later in the session. Investor focus will be firmly on Europe once London opens today, with the ECB due to update the market on its latest rate call. The market is expecting a 25-basis point cut, from 2.65% to 2.40%, but most traders are expecting the volatility to come from updates in the statement and press conference. The New York session sees the usual weekly unemployment data released (expected 225k) alongside the Philly Fed Manufacturing Index numbers, but again, most market participants are keeping a close eye on newswires for more tariff and trade updates to move markets.<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> <div><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> </div>

The major U.S. stock indices all drifted lower — the Dow dropped 0.38%, the S&amp;P 0.17%, and the Nasdaq finished marginally off, losing just 0.05%. Treasury yields also experienced a relatively quiet day, the 2-year closing flat at 3.845%, while the 10-year lost 4.1 basis points to move down to 4.333%. The dollar edged higher against most of the majors, with the DXY up 0.36% to 100.17. Oil contracts also traded in their tightest ranges for a while, Brent gaining just 0.01% to $64.89 and WTI dropping 0.32% to $61.33 a barrel, whilst gold pushed back towards all-time highs again, gaining 0.6% on the day to close at $3,229.24.<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap; font-size: 18px;">Gold Pushing for More Records<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Gold prices moved back higher again overnight and look like they could challenge the $3,245.28 high that was set a few days ago in the coming sessions. Global uncertainty over the last few months has enabled the world’s favourite safe-haven product to climb over 24% this year, and that has increased since “Liberation Day.” However, some in the market are preparing for a sharp turnaround if conditions change. One question for gold traders is just how much downside has been priced into this gold move — and then they are looking at how far it can fall back if we see global growth concerns retract. Overnight, President Trump called on China to come to the negotiation table, and if that were to happen — and lower tariffs, or even the removal of tariffs, were to occur — then we could see gold prices drop, and drop hard. As always in these markets, traders will continue to monitor newswires for updates and will have to react quickly to fresh developments.<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap; font-size: 18px;">Busy Calendar Day Ahead for Traders<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Market volatility dropped considerably over the last few sessions, and investors will now get the chance to have a look at the underlying fundamentals with a full calendar day ahead. The Asian session will have a strong focus on Chinese markets, with the usual big monthly data drop due midway through the session: GDP (exp +5.2%), Industrial Production (exp +5.9%), and Retail Sales (exp +4.2%) will be the main focus, and anything significantly off expectations should see further moves in Chinese markets. The U.K. is again in focus at the European open, with the key CPI data (exp +2.7%) due out, and traders are expecting more moves for the pound on the release. However, the New York session looks set to be the busiest, with U.S. Retail Sales (exp +1.3%, Core +0.4%) due for release early in the day, followed by the key interest rate update from the Bank of Canada, where rates are expected to be held at 2.75%. To add more fuel to the fire, we are also set to hear from Fed Chair Jerome Powell later in the session when he speaks in Chicago.<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> <div><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> </div>

The Dow gained 0.78%, the S&amp;P 0.79%, and the Nasdaq pushed up 0.64%. Treasury yields remained volatile, pulling back from recent strong gains—the 2-year losing 11.5 basis points to move back to 3.845%, and the benchmark 10-year dropping 11.6 basis points to 4.374%. The dollar remained under pressure, the DXY losing another 0.3% to close the session at 99.72. Oil prices had a quieter day than they’ve experienced over the last week or so—Brent up 0.26% to $64.93 and WTI up 0.15% to $61.59—whilst gold pulled back from Friday’s all-time high, dropping 0.82% on the day to finish at $3,209.59 an ounce.<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap; font-size: 18px;">Uncertainty the Only Certainty<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The last couple of weeks have been some of the most volatile since the Covid pandemic hit markets five years ago, and investors and traders alike are now trying to piece the various (moving) parts of the puzzle together to make informed decisions. Correlations are breaking down across the board, with large percentage corrections still occurring on a daily basis, and some of the traditional haven trades have suffered—particularly US-focused (i.e., the dollar and treasuries)—whilst others, e.g., gold, JPY, and CHF, have flourished. Sadly, at the moment, uncertainty very much rules the roost, and until we get some sort of consistency on what will actually be implemented in terms of tariffs and any counter-tariffs, we will continue to see volatile markets. It appears that non-US havens will continue to appeal.<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap; font-size: 18px;">Event Calendar Kicks into Action Today<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The macroeconomic event calendar kicks into action today with some key data and central bank updates due out across the trading sessions, which will add some fundamentals to the geopolitical updates that have been rocking markets. The Asian session will see a focus on Australian markets, with the Reserve Bank of Australia’s Monetary Policy Meeting Minutes due out early in the session. We have some key data due out of the UK early in the European session today—employment data is due out, with the Claimant Count expected to show an increase of 30k fresh claims, with the unemployment rate remaining steady at 4.4%. We also have key data due out shortly after the New York open, with the focus on Canadian markets and the latest CPI print. The headline month-on-month number is expected to show a 0.7% increase, with the median year-on-year data coming in at +2.9%. We also have the Empire State Manufacturing Index due out in the US at the same time to kick off US data for the week.<div><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> </div><div><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> </div>

Market Analysis – 15/04/25

The Dow rose 1.50%, the S&amp;P gained 1.81%, and the Nasdaq pushed up 2.06% by the end of another choppy session. US Treasury yields climbed again, locking in their biggest weekly gains in nearly two decades. The 2-year closed up 9.8 basis points at 3.960%, and the 10-year finished up 6.5 basis points at 4.490%, having touched nearly 4.6% during the day. Despite rising yields, the dollar plummeted to fresh annual lows, with the DXY down another 0.65% to close at 100.10. Oil prices rebounded, with Brent up 2.26% to $64.76 and WTI up 2.38% to $61.50. Gold continued its rally, gaining nearly 2% on the day to close at a record $3,235.66 an ounce.<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Dollar and Treasuries Under Pressure from Trump<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Extreme volatility has rocked global markets in recent weeks as President Trump imposed sweeping tariffs on US trading partners, triggering widespread financial panic. Two of the world’s traditional safe-haven assets—the dollar and US Treasuries—have been under pressure, with yields experiencing their biggest weekly move in nearly 20 years. Normally, such conditions would push the dollar higher. However, the US 10-year yield has surged nearly 19% from a low of 3.86% on April 4th to a high of 4.592% on Friday, while the DXY has dropped 4%, falling from 103.18 to a low of 99.01 in the same period. Traders will continue to monitor the ongoing flight from US safe-haven assets, but for now, it’s shaping up to be a “sell dollars, wear diamonds” environment.<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap; font-size: 18px;">Quiet Calendar Day to Start a Busy Week<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The macroeconomic calendar is light today, so traders expect geopolitical developments to drive market flows. Despite the calm start, there’s plenty of information for investors to digest before the calendar picks up tomorrow in a holiday-shortened week. Already, China’s New Loans data (released Sunday) beat expectations (3,640 billion vs. expected 3,020 billion), which may bolster the positive sentiment from Wall Street in today’s Asian session. However, there’s little else in terms of Tier 1 data in the first two trading sessions of the week. The US session is also quiet on data releases, but we will hear from Fed members Barkin, Waller, and Harker later today, and investors will be looking for further reassurance amid current market conditions.<div><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> </div>

All three of the major US indices dropped hard, the Dow off 2.50%, the S&amp;P down 3.46% and the Nasdaq down 4.31%. The dollar crashed against all the major currencies as FX players priced in more pain for the US, the DXY down 1.95% on the day to 100.98. Treasury yields were mixed again after lower inflation data in the US, the 2-year down 4.6 basis points to 3.862%, while the 10-year gained 9.3 basis points to 4.425%. Oil prices dropped back again, Brent down 3.13% to $63.43, WTI down 3.66% to $60.07 a barrel. Gold flew higher again on haven flow, notching another all-time high, gaining 2.49% on the day to close at $3,176.64.<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Gold Shines Again in Uncertain Times – Up 2.5%<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Gold once again hit a fresh all-time high yesterday as the euphoria of President Trump’s tariff reprieve fell flat after just one day. Traders are now looking at more uncertainty in the market as the US President continues to change his mind on trade issues, and gold has been the recipient of large haven flows. As the dollar continues to drop in the wake of a pending US recession, gold becomes more attractive from a portfolio perspective and investors continue to look for levels to buy. The world’s favourite precious metal is now up nearly 23% since its 2025 low on the very first trading day of the year, and if the global trade war continues, it is set to move even higher. Investors now feel that only a complete turnaround from the US in terms of tariffs will enable a good correction for gold, and while the uncertainty and risks continue to pile up, they will continue to buy haven products, with gold at the top of their list.<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">More Data on the Calendar Today<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">There is more data due out today on the economic calendar, but traders are expecting geopolitical concerns to once again outweigh fundamental updates. There is nothing of note due out in the Asian session, but the focus will be firmly on the UK once Europe opens, with several data drops scheduled, the GDP data being the highlight. Expectation is for the data to show a meagre 0.1% month-on-month increase, and anything significantly off that will see more moves in the pound. Once again, we have big data coming out in the US shortly after the New York open, with PPI numbers set to be released. The core number is expected to show a 0.3% increase, while the headline figure is expected to be slightly lower at 0.2%. Later in the day, we also have University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment and Inflation Expectations data, and the week will be closed out with speeches from Fed members Musalem and Williams.<div><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> </div>

The major US indices all rallied strongly to notch up their best one-day gains in years, with the Dow closing up 7.87%, the S&amp;P up 9.52%, and the tech-heavy Nasdaq surging 12.16%. US Treasury yields jumped higher as traders dialled back Fed rate cut expectations, particularly on the short end, with the 2-year up 18.2 basis points to 3.908% and the 10-year up 3.9 basis points to 4.331%. Oil prices gained for the first time in five days, Brent up 4.58% to $65.70 and WTI up 4.65% to $62.35, whilst gold also jumped back into recent ranges, up 3.30% to $3,082.16 by the close.<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap; font-size: 18px;">Markets Rejoice at this Trump Backflip<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Traders had been waiting a long four trading days for it, but we at last got the backflip from Donald Trump that many of us had been waiting for last night. His about-turn on tariff implementation has led to a surge higher in risk products after a turbulent few days, but now adds more uncertainty to markets going forward. Trump’s decision was probably driven, at least partially, by the chaos that we have seen in markets over the last few days. White House officials are claiming that it is all part of the plan, as it forced other countries to the negotiating table, but not many in the market are buying that particular ‘asset’ at the moment, as Trump had continually advised that tariffs were here to stay. The issue moving forward is how much traders can rely on updates from the administration for long-term trading decisions, or whether they can afford to ignore them in the short term. It can only lead to more volatility as we move forward and more cross-jurisdiction trading opportunities as different deals are made.<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap; font-size: 18px;">Inflation Data in Focus on the Calendar Today<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Asian markets are set to open on a much more positive note today after President Trump’s tariff delay. The reaction to those updates from the US session is expected to dominate the coming trading day, although there are some key fundamental data releases that will also have an effect. The Asian session will have a heavy focus on Chinese markets, not only as they were left out of any tariff reprieve, but also as key inflation numbers are due out in the form of CPI (exp 0.0% y/y) and PPI (exp -2.3% y/y) midway through the session. Later in the day in the European session, we hear from RBA Governor Michele Bullock when she speaks in the Melbourne evening, before we then hit the US session and the main data event of the week, the US CPI update. Expectations are for the CPI to show a 0.1% m/m increase, the Core CPI a 0.3% m/m increase, and the year-on-year data to come in at +2.6%. The weekly unemployment claims are also out at the same time, but in the current environment, expect the impact to be relatively short-term as the market continues to react to tariff updates.<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> <div><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> </div>

Market Analysis – 10/04/25

US Stocks Smashed Again as Trade War Escalates – Nasdaq Down 2% US stock markets took another beating yesterday as the global trade war continued to escalate in light of recent tariff moves. The three major indices had initially rallied in early trading, but a threat to increase Chinese tariffs to 104% by President Trump, starting shortly after midnight, put an end to that. The Dow closed down 0.84%, the S&amp;P down 1.57%, with the Nasdaq again taking the brunt of the move, closing 2.15% in the red. US Treasury yields had a mixed day, the 2-year down 3.8 basis points at 3.725%, while the longer dates rallied, the benchmark 10-year up 10.9 basis points at 4.293% at the close. FX remained volatile, the DXY down 0.44% on the day but was mixed against the majors. Oil prices were hit again, Brent down 2.66% at $61.55 a barrel and WTI down 4.12% to $58.20 a barrel. Gold closed close to flat, down just 0.02% on the day at $2,981.49, but had seen a $60 range over the course of the day. Oil Prices Continue to Decline Oil prices have been absolutely smashed over the last week’s trading, as a global trade war has led to huge demand concerns for ‘black gold’ at the same time as OPEC+ announced production increases four times larger than expected. The combination of the two has created the perfect storm for oil bears and, if you add into the mix the potential for changes to Russian and Iranian sanctions, this could be just the start of the move. Both Brent and WTI are now sitting at levels not seen since 2021, and further moves lower open the way for a move to much lower levels. There is no doubt that we will see further volatility in the coming days and weeks from geopolitical updates, but unless we see a huge change in direction with regards to both the supply and demand side, then expect oil to move further south. Event Calendar Picks Up Today The macroeconomic calendar kicks into action for the first time this week today with a strong focus on central banks, and traders are expecting even more volatility as they cannot fail to mention recent developments with regard to global trade. The initial focus in the Asian session will be on New Zealand today, with the Reserve Bank of New Zealand expected to cut rates by 25 basis points. The focus will then move north to Japan, with Bank of Japan Governor Kazuo Ueda scheduled to speak in the afternoon session. Once again, there is nothing of note on the cards in the European session, and the focus is expected to be on trade updates again, which should continue into the New York open. However, later in the US day, trader attention will move back to central banks when the Fed’s recent meeting minutes are released.

Market Analysis – 09/04/25

Volatility Remains High on Tariff Updates – Dow Drops 0.9%Global markets experienced another volatile trading day yesterday as investors continued to react to tariff updates, with President Trump notably threatening to put another 50% on Chinese imports. US stocks remain under pressure but did not suffer as much as in the previous day’s trading. The Dow dropped 0.91%, the S&amp;P 0.23%, while the Nasdaq eked out a 0.10% gain. Treasury yields pulled back from recent losses as traders factored in a resilient Fed, the 2-year up 11.1 basis points to 3.763% and the 10-year up 18.9 basis points to 4.183%. The dollar climbed again, with the DXY closing up 0.42%, while oil prices continued their decline—Brent off 1.66% to $64.49 and WTI down 1.53% to $61.04. Gold saw some sharp moves across the day but ultimately finished down 1.81% at $2,982.09 an ounce.Gold Loses Some of Its Lustre in Tough MarketsGold bulls may be forgiven for being upset with current market moves, as recent updates on trade have added more uncertainty to a market that was already under pressure—conditions that would normally lead to the world’s favourite precious metal climbing higher. However, gold has been on a spectacular run in 2025, gaining 21.8% from low to high, and some traders were calling for a retracement. The last couple of days’ trading has seen the dollar jump off a six-month low, and traders feel that this has added to the decline for gold alongside some portfolios taking profit to cover margin issues in other markets. Traders will continue to monitor updates across the board over the next few sessions, but more uncertainty should lead to gold finding a base at some point in the near future. However, as with all markets, volatility remains high and it’s a brave trader who picks highs and lows in these conditions.Another Quiet Calendar Day AheadThe macroeconomic calendar again has little to offer traders in the way of fundamental updates, and so they are expecting the focus to remain on global trade concerns and any tariff updates. The Asian session does see some Australian and Japanese sentiment data due out, but these are expected to be largely outweighed by trade issues, while there is very little on the cards once Europe opens. We do have some significant data due shortly after the New York open, with the focus slipping north of the border for the Canadian Ivey PMI data, which is expected to print at 53.2—lower than last month’s 55.3 result. However, once again, investors are expecting updates from the newswires and overall tariff evaluation to dominate market moves.

Risk appetite was not helped by a stronger Non-Farms print and less dovish comments from Jerome Powell on Friday. All three of the major indices closed well over 5% down by the close – the Dow off 5.50%, the S&amp;P down 5.97%, and the Nasdaq 5.82% lower. The dollar jumped higher against most of the majors, with the exception of haven currencies Yen and Swiss; the DXY was up 1.01% at 103.02. US Treasury yields finished lower on the day, although the impact was reduced after the stronger jobs number – the 2-year down 3 basis points to 3.652% and the 10-year off 3.4 basis points to 3.994%. Oil prices also crashed further as global growth concerns increased – Brent down 6.50% to $65.58 and WTI down 7.41% to $61.99 a barrel. Gold also fell off its recent highs in line with the stronger dollar, down 2.47% on the day to $3,036.34 an ounce.<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Aussie Dollar in Trouble in Risk-Averse Markets<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Aussie Dollar traders are preparing for another tough week ahead as markets continue to react to global trade concerns. The Aussie has long been associated as a risk proxy for overall markets, and in recent days its status has come back with a vengeance, as it has collapsed against the dollar and, more significantly, on the crosses. It has dropped over 7% against the greenback from its post-tariff announcement high just under 64 cents to its low this morning just above 59 cents. It has seen similar percentage losses against the Euro (7.45%), Sterling (6.50%), and the Yen (8.19%), and moves this morning on the Asian open do not bode well for any bulls that may remain in the market. Traders will continue to look for levels to sell the Aussie in this environment, however experienced campaigners will also be keeping close eyes on the newswires for any change in tariffs from the US, which could see some sharp relief rallies.<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Macroeconomic Calendar Offers No Respite to Market Volatility<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Global financial markets have opened the week under intense pressure after another ‘sea of red’ on Wall Street on Friday, and the macroeconomic calendar is offering nothing in the way of respite for a couple of days at least. There are no major economic data or central bank updates due for the first couple of trading days this week, and therefore geopolitical updates and reactions are set to dominate market sentiment. The Asian session today sees the return of Chinese markets after a bank holiday on Friday, and given the moves that we have seen in global markets, as well as the increase in tariff measures, traders are expecting to see a messy start to the day’s trading. The European and US sessions are also set to have a focus on newswires and any tariff updates; however, at the moment, respite for already shocked markets seems a long way off.<div><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> </div>

Market Wrap: Trade Tensions Escalate, Stocks Tumble as Investors Flee to Safe Havens

Markets Await Tariff Update – Nasdaq Jumps 0.9% Yesterday&#39;s trading session in the US was marked by a cautious atmosphere, with investors adjusting their positions ahead of a crucial tariff update from President Trump later today. The Dow ended nearly flat, down by just 0.03%, while technology stocks helped propel both the S&amp;P 500 and Nasdaq to finish the day in the green, up 0.38% and 0.87%, respectively. Treasury yields fell again, with the 2-year bond down by 0.2 basis points to 3.881%, and the 10-year bond dropping 3.6 basis points to 4.169%. Major currencies experienced a quiet day, trading within established ranges, with the DXY adding a slight 0.05% to close at 104.23. Oil prices retreated from five-week highs, with Brent down 0.48% at $74.41 and WTI slipping 0.39% to $71.20. Gold, which had surged to a new all-time high, pulled back slightly to end the day down 0.4%, closing at $3,110.55. Investors Await Tariff Update with Caution The market is closely watching President Trump’s tariff announcement scheduled for later today, as any new tariffs introduced will take immediate effect. Speculation surrounding the scale and scope of the tariffs remains high, with discussions focused on whether the President will implement broad, universal tariffs—possibly around 20%—or pursue more targeted reciprocal tariffs. Regardless of the specifics, traders are bracing for volatility, as the announcement is expected to shake up market dynamics and create significant price movements across asset classes. Quiet Economic Calendar Ahead of Tariff Update The economic calendar for today is largely devoid of major events, which sets the stage for the President’s tariff update to take center stage later in the day. Early in the session, markets will hear from RBA Assistant Governor Christopher Kent, and moves in the Australian Dollar are expected as a result. However, there are few notable releases in the Asian session. In Europe, third-tier data will be released, with a focus on the ADP Non-Farm Employment Report in the New York session. Expectations are for the creation of 118,000 new jobs last month. However, most market participants are anticipating that the tariff update will dominate the day’s trading, with the potential for substantial volatility following President Trump&#39;s 4 PM New York Time announcement.

<h4 data-start="1243" data-end="1300">Mixed Markets Ahead of Tariff Update – Dow up 1%</h4> US stocks saw a mixed day ahead of key tariff updates and economic data due later this week. The Dow added 1%, the S&amp;P rose 0.55%, while the Nasdaq dropped 0.14%. Treasury yields fell again after Friday&#39;s sharp drop, with the 2-year down 2.9 basis points to 3.883% and the 10-year down 4.4 basis points to 4.205%. The dollar crept higher against major currencies, with the DXY up 0.16% to 104.17.Oil prices surged higher amid increasing supply concerns, with President Trump considering further tariffs on Russia and possibly military action against Iran. Brent crude rose 2.71% to $74.73 a barrel, and WTI gained 3.06% to $71.48 a barrel. Gold continued to climb as haven flows pushed it to new record highs, gaining 1.23% on the day to close at $3,123.33 an ounce. <hr data-start="2076" data-end="2079"/><h4 data-start="2081" data-end="2138">Tariff “Liberation Day” – How Hard Will They Go?</h4>Investors and traders are closely watching developments in Washington, especially regarding President Trump&#39;s latest tariff announcements and whether the new administration will take a more aggressive stance to &quot;level the playing field.&quot; Some market estimates suggest that a harder tariff policy could raise the average tariff rate by up to 28%, potentially causing a 4% reduction in US GDP and pushing prices up by 2.5%, resulting in a $1 trillion decrease in output. These numbers, though estimates, could have substantial economic impact.Many investors are hoping for a softer tariff update on Wednesday, with announcements likely to come after the Asian market opens when liquidity is low and most products could experience volatility. Overall, most traders expect the tariff updates to create more volatility, and even once markets stabilize, the future direction remains unclear. <hr data-start="3033" data-end="3036"/><h4 data-start="3038" data-end="3101">Rate Decisions and Data Ahead, But Tariffs to Dominate</h4>Today’s macroeconomic calendar is busy, with many data points to keep traders focused on the fundamentals. However, all market participants are aware of the tariff updates due on Wednesday from President Trump, and most expect their impact to dominate.The Australian market will be in focus to kick off the day, with Retail Sales data (expected +0.3% m/m) due in the morning session and the Reserve Bank of Australia’s rate decision in the afternoon. The RBA is widely expected to keep rates unchanged after January&#39;s &quot;hawkish cut,&quot; with traders focusing on the statement and subsequent press conference for any policy hints. As the London market opens, focus will shift to Europe, with CPI data and a scheduled speech by ECB President Christine Lagarde. In the New York session, key US data will be released, including ISM Manufacturing PMI (expected 49.5) and JOLTs Job Openings (expected 7.9 million). However, once again, most traders expect the impact of tariff discussions to outweigh the data’s short-term effects.

This statement helped reassure market confidence, leading to a rebound in the US Dollar Index. Additionally, the Fed may need more time to assess the impact of Trump&#39;s tariff policies on the economy. During this period, the central bank is likely to maintain its current high interest rates, which could continue to pressure non-USD currencies.<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: 700; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: 700; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Technical Analysis:<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: 700; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">On the 1-hour chart, lower highs and lower lows indicate a bearish trend. The 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level of the most recent downtrend is expected to act as resistance, making it a good point to enter short positions. If the price breaks above the previous high, the trend may shift, and short positions should be stopped out.

[AUD/USD Strategy] Powell downplays recession risks, weighing on non-USD Currencies

Additionally, with tariff policies set to take effect in April, the market continues to face uncertainties, driving funds into gold. Under these circumstances, gold is expected to have further upside potential. The bullish trend remains strong, and investors can consider positioning accordingly.<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: 700; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: 700; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Technical Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: 700; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">On the 1-hour chart, the latest upward wave has broken above the previous descending wave&#39;s high, indicating a potential shift to a bullish trend. The 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level of the current upward wave acts as support. It is ideal to go long here, but if the price breaks below the previous low, the trend may change, and a stop loss should be set.

【Gold Strategy】As Safe-Haven Demand Increases, Gold Reaches Record Highs

The Federal Reserve is set to announce its latest interest rate decision, an event closely watched by global markets. As a crucial factor influencing monetary policy, financial markets, and economic outlooks, this decision could trigger significant volatility across forex, stocks, and commodities.<h3 data-start="373" data-end="417">Market Expectations &amp; Key Insights</h3>🔹 Inflation Trends: The market expects U.S. annual inflation for February to slightly decline to 2.9%, but it remains above the Fed’s long-term target. Last month, inflation aligned with forecasts at 3%. If this trend persists without a substantial decline, the Fed’s policy stance may be affected. 🔹 Rate Cut Projections: Around 75% of market participants anticipate at least one rate cut by June, but this outlook depends on inflation, economic growth, and labor market data. If inflation stays elevated, the Fed may maintain higher interest rates for longer, impacting the U.S. dollar and liquidity conditions. 🔹 Market Volatility: In the previous Fed decision, gold’s 15-minute price movement peaked at $7.65. Similar or greater volatility may occur this time, especially given ongoing uncertainty over the Fed’s policy path.<h3 data-start="1290" data-end="1328">Why the Fed Decision Matters</h3>The Fed adjusts the federal funds rate to influence economic growth, inflation, and financial stability. Rate hikes are used to curb inflation, while rate cuts aim to stimulate economic activity. As one of the world’s most influential central banks, the Fed’s decisions have far-reaching implications beyond the U.S. markets.<h3 data-start="1658" data-end="1691">How Traders Can Prepare</h3>✅ Monitor Policy Signals: Pay close attention to Fed Chair Jerome Powell’s statements, particularly any guidance on future rate adjustments. ✅ Adjust Risk Management: Volatility is expected before and after key economic events. Traders should set appropriate stop-loss levels and closely track market movements. ✅ Stay Alert to Broader Market Factors: Beyond the Fed decision, other global events—such as geopolitical tensions in the Middle East and U.S. trade policies—may further amplify market fluctuations.This Fed decision is not just a catalyst for short-term volatility but a potential driver of investment strategies in the coming months. Amid rising economic uncertainties, understanding policy signals and adjusting trading strategies accordingly will be essential for market participants.

Federal Reserve Interest Rate Decision: A Key Market Moment

<h3 data-start="82" data-end="113">Fundamental Analysis:</h3>Last week, U.S. President Donald Trump downplayed the stock market volatility caused by his additional tariffs during a Fox News interview, calling it a &quot;transition period&quot; and claiming that wealth is being brought back to the U.S. This reinforced market concerns that Trump will persist with the tariff war, posing a significant risk to global economic growth and severely impacting risk assets such as U.S. stocks and cryptocurrencies.Additionally, Trump has signed an executive order to establish a Bitcoin reserve, but White House cryptocurrency chief David clarified that the government’s current Bitcoin holdings come from asset seizures through criminal or civil forfeiture proceedings. As a result, the government has no plans to purchase additional Bitcoin, disappointing bullish investors and making it difficult for Bitcoin to reclaim the $90,000 level in the near term.<h3 data-start="1003" data-end="1032"> </h3><h3 data-start="1003" data-end="1032">Technical Analysis:</h3>On the 1-hour chart, BTC attempted to break above the previous high but failed, reversing below the moving averages, which have returned to a bearish crossover. This suggests strong selling pressure above. Given this setup, traders without positions may consider short opportunities during the day.<h3 data-start="1335" data-end="1366"><img src="https://804483479.gieqd.com/cms/490d66e3cdb1443e8e1657439ec2af5a_1742228230319.png" title="" alt=""/></h3> <h3 data-start="1335" data-end="1366">Trade Recommendation:</h3>🔹 Sell BTC at 83,580 (light position) 🔹 Target: 79,923 🔹 Stop Loss: 85,320 🔹 Support: 79,923 🔹 Resistance: 85,312 ⚠ (The above content is for reference only and does not represent the platform’s stance.

Tariff War Pressures Markets, Bitcoin Faces Resistance

Fundamental Analysis:Last Friday, the University of Michigan&#39;s Consumer Confidence Index plummeted from 64.7 to 57.9, while one-year inflation expectations surged from 4.3% to 4.9%. This reflects market concerns about the severity of Trump&#39;s tariff war. The uncertainty surrounding the economic outlook has forced the Federal Reserve to maintain a cautious, dovish stance, weakening the dollar and benefiting non-US currencies. However, UK manufacturing data continued to decline, January&#39;s three-month GDP growth rate fell below market expectations, and the UK has yet to experience the actual impact of the US tariff war. These factors have caused GBPUSD to gradually weaken in the short term. Technical Analysis:On the 30-minute chart, GBPUSD continues to form lower highs and lower lows, while the bearish cross of the moving averages remains intact. The overall structure is bearish. Therefore, for those without positions, consider entering short on a rally during the day. However, be aware that the market may encounter bullish resistance at lower levels, and it&#39;s not advisable to hold short positions for too long. Trading Recommendation: Short GBPUSD on a bounce to 1.2944, targeting 1.2910, with a stop loss at 1.2966. Support: 1.2910 &nbsp; Resistance: 1.2965 <img src="https://804483479.gieqd.com/cms/bb497467942c44caabfcf84b0a82d10a_1742216153492.png" title="" alt=""/> (The above content is for reference only and does not represent the platform’s stance.

【GBPUSD Strategy】Economic Data Shows Recession, GBPUSD Weakens in the Short Term

<h4 data-start="76" data-end="108">Fundamental Analysis:</h4>The U.S.-EU trade conflict has intensified recently, with Trump stating that if the EU does not remove tariffs on American whiskey, he will impose a 200% tariff on European alcoholic products. This statement has further dampened market sentiment, raising concerns that global trade tensions may escalate further. As a result, risk assets remain under pressure, and funds are shifting towards bonds for safety. In this environment, cryptocurrencies may continue their weak trend. <h4 data-start="591" data-end="621">Technical Analysis:</h4>On the 4-hour chart, lower highs and lower lows indicate a bearish trend. The latest downward wave’s 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level is expected to act as resistance. If the price breaks above the previous high, the trend may shift, and short positions should be stopped out. Take profit should be set at the previous low, as the downtrend previously halted there. <h4 data-start="992" data-end="1020">Trading Strategy:</h4> 🔹 Entry: Short SOL above 129.2105 🔹 Stop Loss: 139.8260 🔹 Take Profit: 112.0368 (Adjust for spread accordingly)📉 Support Level: 112.0368 📈 Resistance Level: 139.8260 <img src="https://804483479.gieqd.com/cms/18b1253514b64be58684e89befdb2e9b_1741971200430.png" title="" alt=""/> 🔺 Disclaimer: The above content is for reference only and does not represent the platform’s stance.

Selling pressure emerged following Trump&#39;s repeated tariff hike announcements and the impact of DeepSeek, causing short-term bearish momentum to deplete. Investors turned cautious, and the market had largely priced in expectations that the Fed would slow down its rate cuts. As a result, inflation data had a limited impact on market volatility. However, this period of compressed price fluctuations is unlikely to last long, and once the consolidation phase ends, new catalysts will drive crypto prices out of the current range.<h3 dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:12pt;margin-bottom:12pt;"><span style="font-size: 15pt; font-family: &quot;Trebuchet MS&quot;, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">[This Week &amp; Future Outlook]</h3><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: &quot;Trebuchet MS&quot;, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">This week&#39;s economic data may have a limited impact on the market. Investors should continue focusing on Trump&#39;s tariff policies. Earlier reports suggested that the implementation of reciprocal tariffs in the U.S. could be delayed until early April. The market interprets this as Trump using tariffs as a negotiation tactic. If upcoming negotiations between the U.S. and other countries show goodwill, concerns over the impact of tariffs may ease.<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: &quot;Trebuchet MS&quot;, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Looking ahead, the U.S. 10-year Treasury yield has retreated from its recent rebound high, reducing pressure on risk assets, which is favorable for crypto to regain upward momentum.

The 61.8% Fibonacci retracement of the latest upward wave (0.26186) theoretically provides support, making it a potential entry point for a long position. A break below the previous low (0.24656) would suggest a trend reversal, and the long position should be stopped out.

Market Focus: Key U.S. Employment Data & Gold Price Outlook

Fundamental Analysis: On Wednesday, EIA data showed a decline in commercial crude oil inventories, but rising gasoline and distillate stocks weakened the bullish impact. The cooling U.S. employment data and lack of improvement in China&#39;s economy further dimmed demand outlook, limiting oil price momentum. Additionally, potential trade competition under Trump&#39;s administration could negatively affect global economies, creating further downside risks for demand. With the recent oil rally losing steam and no new bullish catalysts, there is room for a short-term correction. Technical Analysis: In the one-hour chart, WTI crude oil prices retreated after a rally, breaking recent lows and indicating stronger selling pressure. If the subsequent rebound fails to breach resistance levels, the trend may see further downward corrections. Aggressive traders are advised to consider short-selling opportunities. Trading Recommendation:<ul class=" list-paddingleft-2"><li>Entry: Short at 72.68</li><li>Stop Loss: Above 73.38</li><li>Targets: 71.50–72.00</li></ul> <img src="https://804483479.gieqd.com/cms/5942edda519e487bbd1e758571657f82_1736422251182.png" title="" alt=""/> Support Level: 71.50 Resistance Level: 72.68[Trading carries risks.

Gold Trading Strategy

Fundamental Analysis: U.S. API crude oil inventories recorded a third consecutive weekly decline as of early yesterday, while official EIA crude oil inventories have now fallen for five weeks in a row. This reflects strong short-term demand for U.S. crude, driven by an unusually cold winter that has pushed natural gas prices to a two-year high and supported rising oil prices. Additionally, Bloomberg reported that Europe’s energy costs have surged, with electricity prices exceeding €1,000 due to insufficient wind power and high natural gas generation costs. As a result, markets are leaning towards fuel oil for heating. Adding to the energy strain, Russia&#39;s natural gas supply to Europe via Ukraine is set to cease by 2025, exacerbating Europe&#39;s energy demand and further boosting short-term oil price expectations. Technical Analysis: On the hourly Bollinger Bands chart, WTI crude rebounded sharply from the lower band, hitting new intraday highs and maintaining an upward channel. This indicates that the bullish trend remains intact, suggesting an opportunity for those without positions to consider entering long positions at short-term support levels. <img src="https://804483479.gieqd.com/cms/ad13d1c64ba44ee6a39479bb0e7aa2f8_1735818231835.png" title="" alt=""/> Trading Recommendation: Enter a long position on WTI crude at 71.53 on a pullback, with a target of 72.80 and a stop-loss at 70.70. Support Level: 70.72 Resistance Level: 72.80Disclaimer: The above content is for reference only and does not represent the platform’s position.

However, the Pending Home Sales Index for November rose by 2.2%, significantly higher than the forecast of 0.7%, suggesting a potential rebound in the housing market. According to FED WATCH, markets expect the Federal Reserve to maintain rates in January 2025, with uncertainty around a potential rate cut in March.

This development may hinder the European Central Bank’s (ECB) rate-cutting trajectory. ECB Governing Council member Holzmann suggested that the pace of rate cuts might slow, temporarily boosting EUR/USD. <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">However, markets remain pessimistic about the Fed&#39;s rate-cut outlook for next year, with some predicting no cuts at all. Coupled with the U.S. economic growth prospects being significantly better than those of the Eurozone, EUR/USD faced sharp declines during the U.S. trading session. Thus, the recent EUR/USD trend remains bearish, favoring sell positions on rebounds. <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Technical Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">On the hourly chart, EUR/USD has dropped rapidly from the upper Bollinger Band to the lower band, finding temporary support.

In the absence of significant changes in fundamentals, traders are navigating year-end sentiment-driven trades. The dollar&#39;s strength is attributed to expectations of fewer Federal Reserve rate cuts next year and the likelihood that President-elect Trump&#39;s policies will continue to promote economic growth and increase price pressures. <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Additionally, the Bank of Japan&#39;s meeting minutes released last Friday revealed that one policymaker suggested a rate hike &quot;in the near future.&quot; Coupled with repeated hints from Japanese officials about potential intervention measures to address excessive yen fluctuations, short positions on the yen are seeing a phase of unwinding. <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Technical Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The 15-minute chart of USD/JPY indicates that the price is within a descending range. There is a possibility of price retracement to the supply and demand zone to accumulate momentum. Therefore, short positions can be considered at the supply zone, with stop-loss placed above the range top, and targets set at the range bottom or the current low of the trend.<img src="https://804483479.gieqd.com/cms/c49c489a0d1b496597c377d84565152d_1735636938026.png" title="" alt=""/><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Sell Recommendation: Enter a short position at 157.864 or a better price. <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Stop-Loss: Above 158.068.

This could lead to the Federal Reserve slowing down its pace of rate cuts, further supporting the USD&#39;s strength. Meanwhile, other currencies face headwinds: the European Central Bank may continue cutting rates due to a sluggish economy, and the Bank of Japan may halt its rate hikes due to uncertainties stemming from domestic and international politics. These factors suggest that non-USD currencies may have room to decline.<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: 700; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Technical Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: 700; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">On the EUR/USD 1-hour chart, the price has broken below its previous consolidation range and formed new short-term lows, indicating increasing selling pressure.

USD/CHF Strategy - Rising U.S. Treasury Yields Support the Dollar, USD/CHF Continues to Climb

Additionally, the BOJ has reduced the scale of U.S. bond purchases. However, the yen remains influenced by the current policy environment. BOJ Governor Kazuo Ueda stated that the central bank is examining more data regarding wage growth and other trends, indicating that the January rate hike expectation remains uncertain. This makes it difficult for yen bulls to gain strong support, potentially relying on official interventions against yen depreciation to stabilize the exchange rate. <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Technical Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The 15-minute chart for USD/JPY shows the price in an upward channel, with potential corrections to demand zones where momentum could rebuild.

Therefore, they consider it appropriate to begin easing the degree of monetary policy tightening. Although Australia&#39;s inflation growth rate remains above the 2% target, this does not necessarily mean the RBA will start cutting rates immediately. However, with the Federal Reserve also lowering its interest rate cut expectations for next year, the USD is likely to maintain its leading position, putting further pressure on non-USD currencies. <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Technical Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The 15-minute chart for AUD/USD shows that the price is within a descending range.

However, strong demand in the U.S. Treasury Department&#39;s 7-year bond auction, particularly from foreign buyers, caused Treasury yields to pull back from their highs, limiting the dollar&#39;s gains. Nonetheless, the optimistic outlook for the U.S. economy is likely to continue attracting capital inflows into the dollar, suggesting that USD/JPY may continue to rise. <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Technical Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The 30-minute chart shows higher highs and higher lows, indicating a bullish trend.

In the precious metals market, mixed fundamentals and significant uncertainty in the outlook, along with the time required for Washington&#39;s new policies to take effect, have kept recent price movements within a consolidation range. Looking ahead, although Trump&#39;s tariff policies are likely to hinder price declines, their impact on the overall economy and employment remains uncertain. In the short term, precious metals are expected to exhibit repeated fluctuations. <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Technical Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">On the 1-hour chart, silver&#39;s price rise failed to make a new high, and its retracement did not break the previous low.

At the same time, the Fed released its latest economic projections, raising the 2024 GDP forecast from 2.0% to 2.5% and the 2024 core PCE forecast from 2.6% to 2.8%. Additionally, the dot plot revised the 2025 rate cut expectation down to two cuts (previously four). Chairman Powell stated during a press conference that officials must see more progress on inflation before further rate cuts. This sparked pessimism among crypto bulls, who fear significantly reduced liquidity next year, negatively impacting risk assets (US stocks, cryptocurrencies), leading to sharp short-term declines. Bitcoin plunged over $6,000 at one point. <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">However, Trump’s nomination of crypto-friendly Paul Atkins as the SEC chair and stablecoin supporter Lutenick as Commerce Secretary, as well as appointing Hines—backed by a pro-crypto political action committee—as the Executive Director of the Presidential Digital Asset Advisory Council, has been interpreted as a move to strongly support cryptocurrency economic innovation in the future. This helped stabilize sentiment among crypto bulls over the weekend, narrowing Bitcoin&#39;s decline into a high-level consolidation rather than a reversal. <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Additionally, the National Center for Public Policy Research (NCPPR), a U.S. think tank, submitted shareholder proposals urging Microsoft and Amazon to consider investing in Bitcoin. Reports also indicated that El Salvador&#39;s president has ramped up daily Bitcoin purchases, with a mid-term target of adding 20,000 BTC. These factors contributed to Bitcoin&#39;s temporary stabilization. <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">[This Week and Future Outlook]<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">This week marks the Christmas holiday in Western countries, which will lead to early closures in U.S. financial markets, reducing volatility across financial products. Cryptocurrencies may also experience narrow-range trading as a result. However, attention should be paid to whether Trump uses the holiday period to nominate more crypto-friendly personnel to his cabinet, which could lead to surprising moves in the crypto market.

Meanwhile, the US Dollar Index experienced a slight decline after Christmas but remained in a bullish pattern, largely supported by the Fed&#39;s recent revision of next year&#39;s rate cut path. Under the assumption that the Fed will reduce rate cuts to two next year, if other major central banks maintain or turn toward more aggressive rate-cutting policies, the US Dollar is expected to remain strong.<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: 700; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Technical Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: 700; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The AUD/USD 5-minute chart shows the price is in a downward range and may correct toward a supply-demand zone to regain momentum.

AUD/USD Strategy - RBA Hints at Rate Cuts, USD Remains Strong

Fundamental Analysis: 
The Federal Reserve is likely to maintain restrictive interest rates for a longer period, which has recently supported the strength of the US Dollar. Meanwhile, the Swiss National Bank (SNB) exceeded market expectations by cutting rates by 50 basis points to address weak inflation and the strong Swiss Franc. The SNB even stated it does not rule out the possibility of reintroducing negative interest rates.

USD/CHF Strategy - Divergence in US and Swiss Central Bank Policies Fuels USD/CHF Rally

Fundamental Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">During the Christmas holiday when major exchanges are closed, investors are preparing for potential changes in the coming year. These changes may include, but are not limited to, U.S. tariff policies, tax reforms, and cryptocurrency regulations under the new government. These factors will likely drive sentiment-based trading in addition to being key triggers for market movements. Historically, new government policies often prompt investors to adjust their asset portfolios. If stocks, bonds, and currencies experience fundamental shifts due to these policies, cryptocurrencies may emerge as a new target for funds. This could encourage investors to buy into cryptocurrencies after the holiday period. <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Technical Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">On the 5-minute chart, SANDUSDT shows a downward trend and a potential correction to a supply-demand zone for momentum accumulation. A short position can be entered at the supply zone, with a stop-loss above the top of the range and a target set at the bottom of the range or the recent low.<img src="https://804483479.gieqd.com/cms/b8b64914a76d49459d61ed2e09282372_1735140361485.png" title="" alt=""/><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Trade Recommendations:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Short SANDUSDT at 0.63935 or higher, with a stop-loss above 0.65240 and a target of 0.62630.<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Support Level: 0.61660 Resistance Level: 0.65240 <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Note: The above content is for reference only and does not represent the platform&#39;s stance.

SANDUSDT Strategy - Investors Prepare for New Year Market Trends, Driven by Short-Term Sentiment Trading

Fundamental Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Previously, Bitcoin surged past $100,000, pushing market sentiment to its peak. However, profit-taking pressures emerged, causing Bitcoin to fall below $100,000. Other cryptocurrencies were also dragged lower. Recently, cryptocurrencies have rebounded in line with the U.S. stock market, driven by a Christmas rally. Investors can consider short-term long positions in cryptocurrencies. Going forward, it is essential to observe whether Bitcoin can stabilize above the $100,000 threshold to boost overall confidence in cryptocurrencies.<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: 700; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Technical Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: 700; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">On the 30-minute chart, higher highs and higher lows indicate a bullish trend. Therefore, funds can be allocated in two phases for low-buying positions. If the price breaks below the previous low, stop-loss orders should be placed. The take-profit target is set at the extension of the price increase.<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><img src="https://804483479.gieqd.com/cms/daa5b62051604726a1ce643abb5d3195_1735125201078.png" title="" alt=""/><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: 700; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Trade Recommendations:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: 700; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Buy ETH at 3480.33 and 3443.91, stop-loss at 3384.96, and target price at 3575.69.<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Support level: 3384.96 Resistance level: 3575.69<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-style: italic; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Note: The above content is for reference only and does not represent the platform&#39;s position.

ETH Strategy - Cryptocurrency Christmas Rally and ETH Rebound

Fundamental Analysis:<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Yesterday&#39;s U.S. December Conference Board Consumer Confidence Index fell to 104.7, but this did not provide sufficient support for silver prices. The survey revealed that an increasing proportion of consumers are concerned about politics and tariffs, with nearly 46% expecting tariffs to raise living costs. This inflation-driven price increase could slow the Federal Reserve&#39;s rate-cutting pace, thereby weighing on precious metals. The long-term economic impact of tariffs remains uncertain, requiring further observation. In the short to medium term, silver is likely to experience volatile movements. <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Technical Analysis:<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">On the 1-hour chart, silver prices show upward movements without reaching new highs, and pullbacks have not broken previous lows. The fragmented candlestick patterns suggest an unclear trend. Therefore, during periods of ambiguous trends, cautious investors are advised to stay on the sidelines, while aggressive traders may consider short-term long positions based on lower support levels.<img src="https://804483479.gieqd.com/cms/67324d77acbb43189f719b24d021c02f_1735063005008.png" title="" alt=""/><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Trading Recommendations: <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Consider going long at 29.39.<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Stop-loss: Below 28.78.

Silver Strategy - Awaiting Policy Impact, Mixed Silver Movements

Fundamental Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Recent economic data from the Eurozone has been disappointing. ECB President Lagarde stated yesterday that further rate cuts would be considered if supported by data, and she highlighted the potential negative impact of new U.S. protectionist policies on economic growth. This has made it difficult for EUR bulls to gain fundamental support in the short term. However, the U.S. durable goods orders fell by 1.1%, and the consumer confidence index also underperformed expectations, preventing the USD from staging a strong rebound before Christmas. As a result, the EUR may hold on to last Friday&#39;s gains. <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Technical Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The 15-minute chart for EUR/GBP indicates that prices are within an ascending range. There is potential for a correction into a demand zone to accumulate fresh momentum. Long positions can be entered in the demand zone, with stop-loss set below the bottom of the range and take-profit targeting the range top or the current high.<img src="https://804483479.gieqd.com/cms/264cfc55313b48aeb29f1d3811f15a8c_1735046930460.png" title="" alt=""/><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Trading Recommendations: <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Go long on EUR/GBP at 0.82910 or better.<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Stop-loss: Below 0.82771.

This simultaneously strengthened the U.S. dollar, limiting the rebound potential of non-U.S. currencies. Looking ahead, given that current economic data does not support a loosening of monetary policy by the Fed, non-U.S. currencies are likely to remain in a weak trend. <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Technical Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The one-hour chart shows lower highs and lower lows, indicating a bearish trend.

Following the release, the previously rising 10-year U.S. Treasury yield dropped, boosting precious metals&#39; performance. Additionally, on the Federal Reserve side, voting member Williams emphasized that both inflation and future policy remain highly uncertain, stating that future policy paths will depend on economic developments. If U.S. economic data weakens in the future, it will further support the rise of precious metals.<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: 700; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Technical Analysis<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">On the hourly chart for silver, the price shows a rebound after consolidation, breaking previous resistance levels and setting new recent highs.

Silver Strategy - Emphasizing Uncertainty: Silver Gradually Recovers

Fundamental Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Due to weaker-than-expected U.S. PCE inflation data and Federal Reserve officials&#39; statements supporting further rate cuts, the dollar&#39;s rally reversed sharply. Non-U.S. currencies, led by the euro, performed relatively strongly. However, investors remain skeptical about whether the Bank of Japan will proceed with further rate hikes. Additionally, the rebound in U.S. stocks partially reflects an improvement in risk sentiment, reducing demand for the yen as a safe haven. This creates dual pressures on the yen. <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Technical Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The 15-minute chart for EUR/JPY shows the price within an upward range, with the potential for price corrections toward a demand zone to accumulate momentum.

EUR/JPY Strategy - Non-U.S. Currencies Extend Rebound, Uncertain Outlook for JPY Bulls

<h3 dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:14pt;margin-bottom:4pt;">Fundamental Analysis:</h3><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Last Friday&#39;s U.S. November PCE data came in lower than expected, easing market concerns about the Fed&#39;s rate policy outlook. This paused the rise in U.S. Treasury yields and the dollar, providing room for a rebound in non-U.S. currencies. As a result, short-term long positions in non-U.S. currencies may be considered. However, several Federal Reserve officials delivered hawkish remarks, indicating that the outlook for rate cuts next year remains bleak. Thus, the rebound of non-U.S. currencies may be limited.<h4 dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:12pt;margin-bottom:2pt;"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Technical Analysis:</h4><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The 15-minute chart shows higher highs and lows, indicating a bullish trend. Two batches of funds can be used for a low-entry long strategy. If the price breaks below the previous low, stop-loss measures should be applied. Take-profit targets can be set at extended levels of the price increase.<img src="https://804483479.gieqd.com/cms/65535078ae7141f69af928566b595683_1734952693059.png" title="" alt=""/><h4 dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:12pt;margin-bottom:2pt;"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Trading Recommendation:</h4><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Enter GBP/USD long positions at <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: 700; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">1.25844<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> and <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: 700; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">1.25664<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">.

GBP/USD Strategy - U.S. PCE Below Expectations, Non-U.S. Currencies Short-Term Appreciation

Fundamental Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Yesterday, both the Federal Reserve (Fed) and the Bank of England (BoE) announced their interest rate decisions. While the Fed cut rates, the BoE maintained its rates. Logically, this should have been bullish for GBP/USD. However, GBP/USD dropped significantly following these announcements.<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The main reason lies in the differing policy outlooks between the two central banks. For the Fed, the projected rate cuts for next year were reduced by 50 basis points compared to the previous outlook, with hints at a potential pause in rate cuts, causing the USD to rally. Meanwhile, the BoE faced internal dissent, with some officials opposing holding rates steady, and the policy statement shifted toward a gradual easing path, signaling the possibility of accelerated rate cuts in the future.<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">This divergence in policy outlooks and the potential widening of interest rate differentials have led to a significant drop in GBP/USD. <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Technical Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">On the GBP/USD 1-hour chart, after rebounding from the initial range lows, the pair resumed its downtrend, breaking recent lows. The moving averages are aligned in a bearish pattern, indicating a bearish structure. However, the KD indicator remains in a golden cross, suggesting a potential short-term rebound.<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Avoid entering long positions on rebounds in a bearish market.

GBP/USD Strategy - Diverging Policies Lead to Significant Drop in GBP/USD

Fundamental Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Yesterday, the Bank of Japan (BoJ) maintained its interest rates, with Governor Kazuo Ueda stating that more time is needed to evaluate domestic wage growth and the impact of new U.S. policies. These effects are expected to become clearer by March to April next year. Additionally, Ueda downplayed the impact of yen depreciation on import inflation and did not emphasize the urgency of raising rates, leading to the yen&#39;s continued weakness. However, looking ahead, the yen&#39;s rapid short-term depreciation could attract government attention, raising the possibility of intervention. It is also worth noting whether the trend might reverse due to overextension. <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Technical Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">On the one-hour chart, USD/JPY surged to a new high before pulling back, forming a recent low. This indicates increased selling pressure above. If subsequent rebounds fail to break resistance, the trend may undergo further downward correction.

Looking ahead, although current inflation data suggests only a slight increase in U.S. inflation, the risk of a significant resurgence in inflation is low. However, strong economic performance may still lead to the risk of interest rate hikes. Some investors have already started pricing in the possibility of rate hikes. Against this backdrop, the U.S. dollar may continue to rise, putting pressure on precious metals.<h4 dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:12pt;margin-bottom:2pt;"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Technical Analysis:</h4><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The one-hour chart shows lower highs and lower lows, indicating the current trend is bearish.

However, the market had already fully priced in the cut, so the U.S. dollar did not weaken as a result. Instead, the subsequent dot plot revealed that rate cut expectations for next year have been reduced to 50 basis points, down by 50 basis points compared to the previous meeting. Furthermore, Fed Chair Jerome Powell&#39;s remarks hinted at a pause in rate cuts, which delivered a more hawkish tone. Consequently, the U.S. dollar strengthened significantly. <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">In contrast, comparing this to last week&#39;s statement from the Bank of Canada, the interest rate differential between the two central banks is likely to widen, which has led to USD/CAD repeatedly reaching new highs recently. <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Technical Analysis<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">On the USD/CAD hourly chart, the pair is trending upwards along the moving averages and consistently reaching new highs. The moving averages remain in a bullish arrangement, suggesting a strong upward bias. However, the KD indicator remains in a bearish crossover, indicating a potential short-term pullback after the recent rally. Avoid shorting during pullbacks, and instead wait for support near 1.4340 to enter long positions with light volume. <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Target: 1.4460 Stop Loss: 1.4260<img src="https://804483479.gieqd.com/cms/bab15d65aee74577a6fb10b23a7f4f70_1734632564050.png" title="" alt=""/><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Trading Recommendations<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Wait for a pullback to support at 1.4340, then enter a long position with a target of 1.4460 and a stop loss at 1.4260. <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Support Level: 1.4340 Resistance Level: 1.4460 <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Disclaimer: This analysis is for informational purposes only and does not represent the platform&#39;s stance.

Strategy for USD/CAD: Fed Reduces Rate Cut Expectation, USD/CAD Continues to Climb

<h4 dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:12pt;margin-bottom:2pt;"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Fundamental Analysis:</h4><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The Federal Reserve&#39;s rate decision concluded yesterday. With robust US economic and employment data, the pace of inflation decline may slow. Additionally, Fed Chair Jerome Powell mentioned that future rate cuts will proceed cautiously, creating a hawkish outlook that pressured non-USD currencies. Earlier, the Bank of Japan kept its monetary policy unchanged, citing significant uncertainties domestically and internationally, disappointing yen bulls who had expected a rate hike. This further exacerbated the yen&#39;s depreciation. If Governor Kazuo Ueda’s upcoming remarks remain dovish, the yen may continue to weaken.<h4 dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:12pt;margin-bottom:2pt;"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Technical Analysis:</h4><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">On the 1-hour USD/JPY chart, relative highs and lows continue to rise, with new short-term highs indicating stronger buying momentum. If subsequent pullbacks do not break previous support levels, the upward trend may persist.

USD/JPY Strategy - Awaiting the BOJ Governor's Speech, Will the Yen Continue to Depreciate?

Fundamental Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The Federal Reserve&#39;s rate decision signals a hawkish stance, with the dot plot suggesting a halving of next year&#39;s rate cuts, indicating a possible reduction of only 50 basis points in 2024. Additionally, Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell’s hawkish remarks emphasized a more cautious approach to future rate adjustments. This hawkish tone has raised concerns among some investors about potential rate hikes next year, leading to a sharp decline in precious metals. Looking ahead, if US Treasury yields continue to approach the 5% threshold, gold and silver may face further downside pressure. <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Technical Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">A 30-minute chart shows lower highs and lower lows, indicating a bearish trend.

 Gold Strategy - US Treasury Yields Above 4.5%, Precious Metals Plunge

<h4 dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:12pt;margin-bottom:2pt;">Fundamental Analysis:</h4><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Yesterday, the UK’s three-month average earnings including bonuses rose from 4.4% to 5.2%, hindering the inflation reduction process and causing traders to reduce bets on Bank of England rate cuts next year. The Bank of England is now expected to cut rates by about 55 basis points by the end of 2025, compared to the previous forecast of 72 basis points. This provided temporary strength to the British pound.<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">However, with the UK unemployment rate at 4.63%, the Bank of England still faces pressure to cut rates. Additionally, the U.S. November retail sales data showed strong performance, recording a 0.7% increase, beating the previous figure of 0.5%. This suggests that the Federal Reserve may slow down the pace of rate cuts next year. The difference in monetary policy flexibility between the two central banks is weakening GBP/USD&#39;s rebound momentum.<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: 700; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Technical Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: 700; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">On the 1-hour chart, GBP/USD has been fluctuating and rising from its low, temporarily forming a bullish pattern with dual moving averages. However, the overall downward structure has not completely changed. Additionally, the candlesticks have twice tested and been rejected at the lower edge of the previous fluctuation range. Therefore, traders without positions can still consider entering short positions at the current resistance level.<img src="https://804483479.gieqd.com/cms/d267a9bef7bf41cb94416b478454b730_1734544873910.png" title="" alt=""/><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: 700; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Trading Recommendations:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: 700; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Short GBP/USD at 1.2683.<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Target: 1.2613.

GBP/USD Strategy – Strong U.S. Retail Data, GBP/USD Shows Weakness

Additionally, the November unemployment rate fell from 4.7% to 4.63%, and average wages increased, reflecting an improvement in employment conditions. After the data release, the market quickly reduced its expectations for a Bank of England rate cut, providing some support to GBP/USD performance.<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">On the other hand, with the U.S., Japan, and UK central banks all holding rate decisions tomorrow, the U.S.&#39;s ability to withstand risks remains stronger than other countries. Furthermore, policies under Trump could further bolster the dollar. As a result, non-USD currencies are anticipated to face short-term correction risks.<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: 700; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Technical Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: 700; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">On the GBP/USD 1-hour chart, the pair climbed higher but then retreated and hit new recent lows, indicating increased selling pressure.

This has caused the USD rally to pause, giving room for non-USD currencies to breathe. Looking ahead, considering the typical Christmas rally in U.S. equities at the end of the year, it is expected that Fed Chair Powell may avoid overly hawkish remarks that could dampen market sentiment. This will likely support a continued short-term rebound for non-USD currencies. <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Technical Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The 30-minute chart shows lower highs and lower lows, indicating a bearish trend.

Fundamental Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Yesterday&#39;s data showed a decline in US manufacturing, but the service sector saw significant growth, continuing previous industry trends and highlighting that the service sector remains a key support for the US economy. The composite PMI also moved upward, keeping the market optimistic about the US economy and strengthening the dollar, which adds upward momentum to USDCAD. Additionally, last week&#39;s data showed inflation heating up, coupled with stable economic and employment data. While this won&#39;t affect the Fed&#39;s rate cuts this week, it changes market expectations regarding future monetary policy easing, leading to continued dollar strength, potentially impacting non-US currencies. <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Technical Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">On the 1-hour chart, USDCAD is moving upward along the moving average line and has consistently reached new highs, with the moving averages in a bullish alignment, indicating a positive outlook. However, the KD indicator has formed a death cross in the overbought zone, suggesting a potential short-term pullback. It is advised not to short against the trend during pullbacks. Instead, wait for a retracement to the 1.4240 support level to enter light long positions, with a target of 1.4350 and a stop loss at 1.4190.<img src="https://804483479.gieqd.com/cms/ba22e085ee1c430593110c58108fc493_1734459860942.png" title="" alt=""/><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Trading Recommendation:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Wait for a retracement to the 1.4240 support level to enter light long positions. <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Target: 1.4350 Stop Loss: 1.4190<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Support: 1.4240 Resistance: 1.4350 <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The above content is for reference only and does not represent the platform&#39;s stance.

USDCAD Strategy - US Economy Stabilizes Further, USDCAD Continues to Rise

Fundamental Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Recently, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz lost the parliamentary vote of confidence, paving the way for early elections in Germany in February. However, the euro was not significantly affected by this negative development, mainly because the fragmented coalition government is expected to end. Additionally, high market expectations for a December rate cut by the Federal Reserve have supported the euro&#39;s performance.<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Looking ahead, no single party in Germany is likely to win an absolute majority, meaning coalition negotiations will likely persist. Moreover, the Eurozone faces political and trade risks in the future. As such, the euro&#39;s short-term rebound should be approached cautiously.<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: 700; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Technical Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: 700; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">On the EUR/USD 1-hour chart, the price is moving higher with relatively higher highs and lows, indicating increasing buying strength. If the price pulls back and holds above previous support levels, it will help maintain the recovery trend.

The market had already anticipated the data rebound. Meanwhile, the U.S. unemployment rate climbed from 4.1% to 4.2%, leading markets to expect the Fed to maintain its dovish policy tone, supporting risk assets (U.S. stocks and cryptocurrencies). However, U.S. core CPI annual rate for November remained at 3.3%, and the November PPI annual rate surged from 2.6% to 3%, prompting profit-taking among some bullish crypto traders, causing Bitcoin and Ethereum to briefly experience corrective price moves.<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Nevertheless, Ray Dalio, founder of Bridgewater Associates, warned that the U.S. is burdened with $35 trillion in debt, raising depreciation risks for the dollar and other currencies. Dalio advised investors to hold &quot;hard assets&quot; like gold and Bitcoin. Against this backdrop, Canada’s central bank cut rates by 50 basis points again, and the European Central Bank (ECB) delivered a 25-basis-point cut as expected, reinforcing Dalio’s warning and keeping buy-side interest in the crypto market strong.<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">In addition, Gary Gensler, the SEC Chair known for his tough stance on crypto regulation, is set to leave office. Trump has nominated crypto-friendly Paul Atkins to succeed him as SEC Chair. Trump’s nominee for Commerce Secretary, Lutnick, is also a strong supporter of stablecoin Tether. Trump’s consideration to eliminate some regulatory bodies, such as the FDIC, OCC, and the Federal Reserve, is viewed positively by the crypto market. These developments are expected to increase U.S. tolerance towards digital assets, helping Bitcoin gradually hold firm at the $100,000 mark. <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Outlook for This Week and Beyond<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The most important event this week will be the Federal Reserve’s interest rate decision early Thursday. The Fed will release its updated economic forecasts and dot plot, which will guide market expectations for the number and magnitude of rate cuts next year. Economists currently anticipate only three rate cuts next year. If the Fed maintains its outlook for four rate cuts, it will boost risk appetite and support the crypto market&#39;s bullish momentum. Additionally, keep an eye on whether Trump or Elon Musk propose more crypto-friendly policies or statements. 2025 could potentially be the strongest year for cryptocurrencies in recent times. <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Technical Analysis<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">On the BTC 4-hour chart, the price has pushed to a new historical high, keeping the dual moving averages aligned bullishly.

Crypto Weekly Report

Fundamental Analysis:Recently, U.S. economic data has heightened market expectations that the Federal Reserve may slow its pace of rate cuts next year. As a result, U.S. Treasury yields have risen, widening the 10-year government bond yield spread between the U.S. and Japan. A wider yield spread makes the U.S. dollar more attractive relative to the yen, increasing depreciation pressure on the yen. If this week&#39;s dot plot suggests a reduced scale of rate cuts and Fed Chair Powell takes a hawkish stance, the U.S.-Japan yield spread may further widen, adding more pressure on the yen.<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: 700; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Technical Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: 700; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The 30-minute chart shows higher highs and lows, indicating a bullish trend.

USD/JPY Strategy - U.S.-Japan Yield Spread Widens, Yen Under Depreciation Pressure

Fundamental Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Recently, the preliminary December Manufacturing PMI figures for Germany, France, and the Eurozone were released. While the Eurozone PMI remained unchanged at 45.2, the Manufacturing PMIs for France and Germany declined compared to previous values. This has strengthened the market&#39;s belief that last week&#39;s European Central Bank (ECB) rate cut was necessary, which is unfavorable for the euro. Additionally, the ECB&#39;s decision to lower next year&#39;s Eurozone GDP growth forecast by 0.2% reflects its pessimistic outlook on the economy. Coupled with the French government budget impasse and Germany&#39;s decision to hold early elections in February next year, the already weak economic environment is further plagued by political uncertainty, pushing EUR/USD into a bearish trend. <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Technical Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">On the 1-hour chart, EUR/USD has rebounded from its lows, forming a temporary golden cross on the moving averages.

EUR/USD Strategy - Eurozone Political and Economic Uncertainty Weighs, EUR/USD Shows a Bearish Bias

This adds potential geopolitical conflict risks. However, gold has not responded with a rebound, suggesting that the event’s safe-haven appeal is insufficient. On the other hand, investors currently believe that Trump’s new policies will increase inflation risks and delay future Federal Reserve rate cuts. Combined with the strong U.S. data released last week, the dollar is expected to gain short-term support, further limiting the rebound momentum of precious metals. <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Technical Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The 15-minute gold chart shows prices moving within a descending range, with potential for corrections to the supply and demand zone to accumulate momentum again.

Gold Strategy - Bulls Limited by Strong Dollar, Rebound Lacks Strong Support

Fundamental Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Last week, the U.S. November PPI and CPI reports indicated signs of inflation rebounding. Additionally, U.S. employment data showed no urgency for the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates. As a result, the market is betting that the Fed may slow its pace of rate cuts, pushing the yield on the 10-year U.S. Treasury bond stronger, even approaching the 4.5% mark. This has placed pressure on precious metals. If this week’s interest rate decision and dot plot suggest a slowdown in rate cuts, it could further weaken precious metals. <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Technical Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The hourly chart shows lower highs and lows, indicating the current trend is bearish. Therefore, it is recommended to plan a short-selling strategy in two batches of funds.

The probability of a Fed rate cut next week is now close to 90%, and regardless of the data, this expectation is unlikely to change. However, investors will use the data to assess policy directions for the next year. Most institutions currently predict that the Fed will pause rate cuts at its January meeting and adopt a cautious approach toward easing policies, as policies under U.S. President-elect Trump are likely to reignite inflationary pressures. <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">For short-term trading, it&#39;s important to note that commodities, forex, and stock indices have all exhibited volatile upward and downward swings today, suggesting that traders are adjusting their positions ahead of the data release. This could indicate an increased risk of volatility this evening. <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Technical Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">On the 15-minute GBP/USD chart, prices are within an upward channel. If prices correct to the supply and demand zone, long positions can be entered in this zone before the correction is complete. Stop-loss should be placed below the bottom of the range, and targets can be set at a 1:1 risk-reward ratio or extended to the current high as a flexible goal.<img src="https://804483479.gieqd.com/cms/1a3667182451429a86de3359ef36987f_1733942286077.png" title="" alt=""/><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Recommendation: Enter long at 1.27443 or better, with a stop loss below 1.27234 and a target at 1.27653.<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Support Level: 1.27234; Resistance Level: 1.27794 <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">[The above content is for reference only and does not represent the platform&#39;s position.

Additionally, with prices continuously climbing, many retail traders, driven by FOMO, began chasing higher prices. This rally was largely driven by leverage trading platforms, and under the backdrop of extreme greed in market sentiment, the natural pullback has likely triggered liquidations among traders chasing the highs, creating selling pressure. This, in turn, has attracted buyers at lower levels, amplifying short-term market volatility.<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">This Week and Future Outlook:With the Federal Reserve&#39;s final rate decision of the year approaching next week, investors are expected to shift their focus back to policy stances and economic performance. This week, the U.S. CPI and PPI data will be released. Following last week&#39;s lukewarm employment figures, the market will pay close attention to price data. Although next week&#39;s rate cut by the Fed is almost certain, the various uncertainties expected after Trump&#39;s inauguration in January will prompt the market to assess next year&#39;s policy steps in advance based on data, which will affect the short-term performance of various assets. <img src="https://804483479.gieqd.com/cms/ddd20e68ec64499bb8d6a4c403c48fb9_1733937445905.png" title="" alt=""/><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Technical Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">ETH/USDT shows a bullish trend on the 4-hour chart.

Additionally, the November NFIB Small Business Optimism Index showed a notable increase, aligning with previous surveys released by the New York Fed, continuing to support the U.S. dollar. On the euro side, France&#39;s political situation has turned unstable, and the eurozone&#39;s economy shows no signs of improvement. Furthermore, under Trump&#39;s administration, the eurozone might face tariff threats. Compared to the strong U.S. economic outlook, the euro appears weaker in the short term. <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Technical Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">On the EUR/USD hourly chart, the price broke through previous support levels, hitting new recent lows, with downward-sloping moving averages indicating strong selling pressure.

EUR/USD Strategy - Strong U.S. Economy Puts Selling Pressure on the Euro

Fundamental Analysis:Tonight, the Bank of Canada is set to announce its rate decision. Considering recent developments in oil prices, economic performance, and inflation trends, the likelihood of the Bank of Canada maintaining a loose monetary policy stance is high. The market anticipates a further 50-basis-point rate cut in this meeting. Additionally, these factors may prompt the Bank of Canada Governor&#39;s subsequent statements to lean dovish, making the Canadian dollar relatively weak. This contrasts with the US Federal Reserve&#39;s recent cautious stance on rate cuts, suggesting a potential widening of the interest rate differential between the two central banks. This divergence could further highlight the strength of the US dollar over the Canadian dollar, paving the way for USD/CAD to rise again.Technical Analysis: On the USD/CAD hourly chart, the pair has rebounded from support levels and resumed its upward trend, setting new recent highs. This indicates a bullish pattern. If the subsequent pullback to the support level holds without breaking below, the upward trend is expected to continue. Therefore, it is recommended to take a light long position at the 1.4155 support level, with a target of 1.4260 and a stop loss at 1.4090. <img src="https://804483479.gieqd.com/cms/c71d1dbd81af44c6b3125bae96c90077_1733922472966.png" title="" alt=""/>Trading Suggestion: Enter a light long position at the 1.4155 support level, with a target of 1.4260 and a stop loss at 1.4090.

Canada-US Strategy: Awaiting Central Bank Rate Decision – Significant Rate Cuts May Weaken the Canadian Dollar

Fundamental Analysis:Yesterday&#39;s crude oil movement was mixed, primarily reflecting uncertainty from fundamental factors. Geopolitically, the potential collapse of the Assad regime in Syria might bring changes to Middle Eastern stability. Although Syria is not a major oil producer, the power vacuum could indirectly affect Russia and Iran. Additionally, investors remain cautious about the effectiveness of China&#39;s fiscal and monetary policies.

Given the potential slowdown in the Fed&#39;s rate-cutting pace, the upside for precious metals may be limited. <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Technical Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The one-hour chart shows higher highs and higher lows, indicating a bullish trend.

Additionally, OPEC&#39;s decision to delay its production increase plan until the end of the first quarter supported early trading oil price recovery. However, later in the day, Saudi oil giant Saudi Aramco announced a reduction in oil prices for January shipments to Asia, as well as price cuts for Western Europe, Northern Europe, and the Mediterranean regions, while keeping U.S. prices unchanged. This indirectly confirms that crude oil demand has not yet entered a recovery phase, limiting the rebound in oil prices. <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Technical Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">On the one-hour chart, U.S. oil prices surged before pulling back and breaking below the previous upward trend&#39;s high point.

 USOIL Strategy - Saudi Arabia Lowers Oil Prices, Limiting Oil Price Increases

Fundamental Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Although OPEC+ has extended its production cut measures until the end of the first quarter next year, the market has already priced in this expectation. The oversupply situation remains unchanged, keeping oil prices weak. Fitch Ratings recently downgraded China’s GDP growth forecast for the next two years. As a major oil consumer, China&#39;s pessimistic economic outlook is likely to keep oil prices under pressure. Therefore, crude oil is suitable for short-selling strategies at higher prices. <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Technical Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">On the 1-hour chart, highs and lows are trending downward, indicating a bearish trend. The latest 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level of the current downtrend theoretically provides resistance, making it a suitable point to open short positions. If the price breaks above the previous high, it may signal a trend reversal, requiring stop-loss activation for short positions. Profit-taking should be considered near the previous low, as previous declines were halted at that level.<img src="https://804483479.gieqd.com/cms/a82cef83f6c444eb91a9c0882eacb09b_1733767112958.png" title="" alt=""/><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Trading Recommendation:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Short USOIL above $68.089, with a stop-loss at $68.888 and a target price of $66.797.

USOIL Strategy - China's GDP Growth Forecast Downgraded, Bearish Outlook for Oil Demand

<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Fundamental Analysis: 
Last Friday, the U.S. November Non-Farm Payroll report showed a gradual cooling trend, but it did not significantly boost the NZD&#39;s performance. The primary reason for the NZD&#39;s weakness lies in the Reserve Bank of New Zealand&#39;s pessimistic outlook on the economy. In its last rate decision, the RBNZ cut interest rates by 50 basis points, marking the third rate cut this year, and projected that economic growth would only recover next year. This starkly contrasts with the relatively strong U.S. economy, leading to continued weakness in the NZD. <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Technical Analysis: 
On the 1-hour chart for NZD/USD, the trend shows lower highs and lows, with recent lows being broken. The moving averages are sloping downward, indicating strong selling pressure. If subsequent rebounds fail to break through previous resistance levels, the trend may remain weak. Thus, short-selling is recommended.<img src="https://804483479.gieqd.com/cms/1fc0d4cc24a7461785a4bcc083482cd0_1733762807062.png" title="" alt=""/><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Trading Suggestion: <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Sell at 0.5831<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Stop Loss above 0.5858 Target: 0.5790–0.5802<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Support Level: 0.5790 Resistance Level: 0.5831<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Note: Trading involves risk, and the suggestions provided do not guarantee profits.

However, after the news broke, oil prices only saw a brief rebound. The primary reason lies in the anticipation of Trump’s upcoming presidency. Concerns include whether the trade conflicts might impact economic growth, his efforts to use low oil prices to curb inflation threats, and incentives to release oil to facilitate a Middle East ceasefire. These factors have led the market to expect that, even with the production cut agreement, the oil market will remain oversupplied in 2025, causing oil prices to continue their downward trend.<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: &quot;Microsoft JhengHei&quot;; font-weight: 700; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Technical Analysis:<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: &quot;Microsoft JhengHei&quot;; font-weight: 700; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: &quot;Microsoft JhengHei&quot;; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">On the US oil hourly chart, the rebound lows are getting lower, and recent lows have been broken, indicating a bearish trend.

 USD/JPY Strategy - GDP Exceeds Expectations, BOJ Tightening Momentum Strengthens

Fundamental Analysis: <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">After the market digested the political risks in France, the euro rebounded. Additionally, the rise in US initial jobless claims led to a continued pullback in the dollar, supporting non-US currencies. Investors can consider short-term long positions on EUR/USD. However, in the long run, the favorable outlook for the US economy compared to other countries may enhance the dollar&#39;s long-term appeal. Investors looking to go long on non-US currencies should cautiously set their target prices. <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Technical Analysis: <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">On the 30-minute chart, higher highs and higher lows indicate an uptrend. The 61.8% Fibonacci retracement of the latest upward wave theoretically provides support. A long position can be initiated here. If the price breaks below the previous low, the trend may reverse, and long positions should stop out. Consider taking profit near the previous high, as the upward movement previously halted at this level.<img src="https://804483479.gieqd.com/cms/a2d4661898b143afbefc7a7abea1bbd1_1733507647509.png" title="" alt=""/><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Trading Recommendation: <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Go long on EUR/USD below 1.05764, with a stop loss at 1.05657 and a target at 1.05938.

EUR/USD Strategy - US Initial Jobless Claims Rise, Non-US Currencies Rebound

Fundamental Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Yesterday, U.S. initial jobless claims exceeded expectations, but continuing claims decreased again, indicating mixed employment data. This keeps the market optimistic about a potential rate cut in December, slowing the USD&#39;s rally and giving non-USD currencies some breathing room. However, tonight&#39;s release of more critical employment data, including non-farm payrolls and unemployment rates, could shift the outlook. Last month, job numbers were negatively affected by hurricanes and strikes, but with these risks subsiding, employment figures are expected to return to normal levels, likely exceeding expectations. While this may not directly influence a December rate cut, it could slow the pace of Fed rate cuts, strengthening the USD and increasing the likelihood of a decline in non-USD currencies. <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Technical Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">On the 1-hour chart, AUD/USD briefly broke resistance but quickly fell back below the previous resistance level after consecutive bearish candles. This suggests a false breakout, with moving averages aligning in a bearish formation due to the weakening trend. This indicates a strong bearish bias. It is recommended to adopt a bearish view and consider short positions around the short-term resistance of 0.6445, targeting 0.6395, with a stop loss at 0.6480.<img src="https://804483479.gieqd.com/cms/04cc5017ff7848d1b1cb5e030d1ffab6_1733499327032.png" title="" alt=""/><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Trading Recommendations:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Sell Entry: Around 0.6445 with light positions.<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Target Price: 0.6395 Stop Loss: 0.6480<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Support Level: 0.6395 Resistance Level: 0.6445 <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Disclaimer: The above content is for reference only and does not represent the platform&#39;s stance.

AUD/USD Strategy - Non-Farm Payroll and Employment Data in Focus, AUD/USD Declines Again

Analysts predict this political deadlock could last until at least July next year. While President Emmanuel Macron introduced a new budget proposal this morning, which led far-right leader Marine Le Pen to indicate potential support if deficit reduction is slowed, France’s political instability remains deeply rooted. As a result, European funds continue to favor Germany’s stock market over France’s, propelling the GER30 to achieve consecutive highs. Investors may take a bullish stance in the short term. <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Technical Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">On the 1-hour Bollinger Bands chart, the GER30 has been consistently setting new highs, pushing the channel upward with a solid bullish structure. Currently, the channel is narrowing slightly, suggesting a potential short-term pullback.

GER30 Strategy - France's Uncertain Future Benefits GER30

Fundamental Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">During yesterday&#39;s OPEC+ meeting, it was indicated that there is a need to delay the production cut agreement. However, countries that voluntarily cut production have shown no change in their stance. This has caused a reduction in the effectiveness of production cuts, failing to provide a rebound opportunity for oil prices. The primary reason lies in reports highlighting weak crude oil demand in Asia, potentially influenced by a sluggish Chinese economy, leading to continued bearish demand outlooks. Additionally, the International Energy Agency (IEA) stated that even with production cut agreements, the oil market will likely face oversupply challenges by 2025. This weak demand continues to weigh on oil price performance. Furthermore, with Trump expected to take office next year, the potential expansion of US crude oil production could further increase supply, potentially putting additional pressure on oil prices. <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Technical Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">On the 1-hour chart for US oil, prices faced resistance during a rebound and continued to decline, with new lows repeatedly breaking previous ones. This indicates a bearish pattern. If the resistance at 68.25 holds and fails to lead to a breakout, the trend is expected to continue downward. Therefore, a light short position is recommended around the resistance level of 68.25, with a target of 66.70 and a stop loss at 68.90.<img src="https://804483479.gieqd.com/cms/8ae972e188c840ef9dd0fcca1232e766_1733484282464.png" title="" alt=""/><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Trading Recommendations:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Open a light short position at 68.25 resistance.<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Target: 66.70.

Although PMI growth slowed, it remained in expansion territory. Later, Fed Chair Powell&#39;s remarks confirmed that the current economic environment is stronger compared to September. The Fed&#39;s Beige Book also showed increased economic activity and greater business optimism about demand prospects, providing reasons for slowing the pace of rate cuts in the future. <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Meanwhile, this morning, a Bank of Japan (BOJ) official made dovish comments, expressing doubts about the sustainability of wage growth and predicting that inflation would remain below 2% next year. This contradicts the BOJ&#39;s earlier rate hike expectations driven by data, limiting the yen&#39;s upward momentum. <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Technical Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The 30-minute chart for USD/JPY shows the price is within an upward range.

USD/JPY Strategy - Fed Confirms Economic Strength, BOJ Stance Uncertain

This caused the dollar to weaken temporarily, providing an opportunity for non-U.S. currencies to rebound. However, this morning, the Fed&#39;s Beige Book indicated growth in multiple economic activities, with businesses more optimistic about the future. Coupled with Fed Chair Powell&#39;s statement that the current economy is performing better than previously expected, this may lead to a reduced rate cut pace next year, favoring the dollar&#39;s outlook and potentially driving non-U.S. currencies lower. Additionally, another employment data report will be released tonight. If the data remains strong, it will stabilize market views on the labor market and could further weaken non-U.S. currencies. <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Technical Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">On the hourly chart, AUD/USD resumed its downward movement after testing resistance and hit a new recent low. Additionally, moving averages are aligned in a bearish pattern, indicating continued weakness. However, the KD indicator shows a golden cross signal, suggesting that the pair might see a short-term rebound. Traders should avoid chasing the rebound and wait for the resistance at 0.6445 to open a light short position, targeting 0.6395 with a stop loss at 0.6480.<img src="https://804483479.gieqd.com/cms/51cd3f3efa2046a588404d8fff5ca178_1733410181506.png" title="" alt=""/><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Trade Recommendation: <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Wait for a rebound to the resistance level of 0.6445 to open a light short position.<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Target: 0.6395.

However, yesterday&#39;s Australian Q3 GDP annual growth rate was weaker than market expectations, dampening market confidence. Meanwhile, Fed Chair Powell stated this morning that the U.S. economy is stronger than expected, allowing for cautious rate cuts. Coupled with the Beige Book revealing stable recent economic conditions and optimism across most industries regarding future growth, the dollar&#39;s strength has widened its gap with the Australian dollar. Thus, AUD/USD is expected to remain bearish today. <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Technical Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">On the hourly Bollinger Bands chart, AUD/USD broke new lows again, continuing its downward channel development and maintaining a complete downtrend structure. As a result, any short-term rebound indicated by the MACD turning green should be considered a temporary pullback. Traders without positions should focus on shorting at intraday resistance levels and avoid attempting to catch the bottom with long positions.<img src="https://804483479.gieqd.com/cms/2258554b3e5e4649af8d760902ababeb_1733403997248.png" title="" alt=""/><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Trade Recommendation: <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Short AUD/USD at 0.6441 on a rebound.<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Target: 0.6398.

AUD/USD Strategy - Dollar Maintains Strength, AUD/USD Breaks New Low Again

Fundamental Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">This morning, Australia&#39;s Q3 GDP was reported at 0.8%, which is below market expectations and the previous reading. This suggests a potential slowdown in the Australian economy. Additionally, the recently released Chinese Services PMI showed a decline. Given China&#39;s significant impact on Australia&#39;s economy, the series of weak data has led to a pessimistic outlook for Australia&#39;s economic future. This resulted in a sharp drop in the Australian Dollar (AUD) this morning, pushing the AUD/USD pair to a new recent low. Furthermore, stable U.S. employment data released yesterday and the fading impact of last month&#39;s labor market disruptions suggest that this week&#39;s employment data may be strong. This could bolster the U.S. Dollar (USD) and further pressure AUD/USD downward. <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Technical Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">On the hourly chart, AUD/USD resumed its decline after a bounce to the moving average, with the downward trend intensifying and setting new recent lows. The moving averages show a bearish alignment, indicating a bearish outlook. However, the KD indicator shows a golden cross at low levels, suggesting a potential oversold rebound. It is advised not to attempt short-term long positions during bearish trends. Instead, wait for a rebound to the resistance level of 0.6445 to enter a light short position. Target is set at 0.6395, with a stop loss at 0.6480.<img src="https://804483479.gieqd.com/cms/f5cea34006d6404c8cb968b3a120700d_1733327524223.png" title="" alt=""/><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Trading Recommendations:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Action: Wait for a rebound to 0.6445 and enter a light short position.<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Target: 0.6395 Stop Loss: 0.6480<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Support: 0.6395 Resistance: 0.6445<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Disclaimer: The above information is for reference only and does not represent the platform&#39;s position.

AUD/USD Strategy - Australian Economy Under Pressure, AUD/USD Weakens in the Short Term

Fundamental Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Yesterday, U.S. economic and employment data showed a slight decline, raising market expectations for a potential rate cut in December, which slowed the dollar&#39;s upward momentum and provided an opportunity for non-U.S. currencies to rebound. However, the Fed&#39;s Beige Book and remarks by Fed Chair Powell suggest that the economy is growing more than previously expected. This could reduce the scope for future rate cuts, thereby strengthening the dollar&#39;s outlook.<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Additionally, the Reserve Bank of New Zealand (RBNZ) has cut rates by 50 basis points for two consecutive meetings, and recent inflation and economic data indicate a high probability of further rate cuts in the next meeting. With the interest rate differential between the two countries expected to widen, NZD/USD is likely to remain weak. <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Technical Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">On the hourly chart, NZD/USD has shown consecutive bearish candles, breaking the previous consolidation range. Subsequent rebounds testing the previous consolidation lows have failed to break through, indicating significant resistance above. If future rebounds continue to fail at the consolidation lows, the trend may resume its downward movement. Therefore, it is recommended to open a light short position at the resistance level of 0.5868, targeting 0.5815 with a stop loss at 0.5890.<img src="https://804483479.gieqd.com/cms/707e2256faf44c7f8ecadd520bc302fa_1733399046998.png" title="" alt=""/><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Trade Recommendation: <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Open a light short position at the resistance level of 0.5868.<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Target: 0.5815.

NZD/USD Strategy - Pay Attention to This Week's Employment Data, NZD/USD Showing Weakness

Coupled with yesterday&#39;s announcement of a widening Q3 current account deficit from AUD 10.7 billion to AUD 14.1 billion, the statistics office attributes the deficit increase to weaker resource prices, shrinking the trade surplus to its smallest since mid-2018. These developments cast further shadows over Australia&#39;s weak economy, heightening pressure on the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) to cut rates, thereby weakening the Australian dollar. In contrast, the current resilience of the U.S. economy has led to a sharp short-term decline in AUD/USD. <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Technical Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">On the 1-hour chart, Bollinger Bands indicate AUD/USD has broken to the downside, with channel widening and the midline bending downward, signaling a significant increase in bearish momentum. Traders should consider short positions on intraday rebounds to resistance levels and avoid prematurely bottom-fishing.<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><img src="https://804483479.gieqd.com/cms/34c09d4eee6e421fbbdec4b069cbf264_1733320621970.png" title="" alt=""/>Trade Recommendations:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Sell at: 0.6446<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Target: 0.6407 Stop loss: 0.6471<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Support: 0.6407 Resistance: 0.6470<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Note: This content is for reference only and does not represent the platform&#39;s stance.

AUD/USD Strategy - Quarterly GDP Below Expectations, AUD/USD Bulls Retreat

Fundamental Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">This week’s economic data from Japan indicates that the economy is stabilizing. Combined with previous statements from officials and rising inflation, market expectations for another rate hike by the Bank of Japan have increased, causing the yen to show short-term strength and leading to a decline in USD/JPY. Additionally, yesterday’s U.S. employment data showed signs of improvement, alleviating the panic caused by previous weak employment reports. This temporarily strengthened the dollar, leading to a rebound in USD/JPY. However, based on economic data, inflation, and statements from officials, the probability of a rate cut in the upcoming policy meeting remains high. As the interest rate differential between the two central banks narrows, USD/JPY is expected to remain weak. <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Technical Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">On the USD/JPY one-hour chart, the rebound highs are gradually declining, and subsequent lows are also being breached, showing a downtrend in both highs and lows. This indicates an overall weak trend. If the rebound fails to overcome resistance, the downward trend is likely to continue. Therefore, it is recommended to take a light short position at the resistance level of 149.95, targeting 148.10, with a stop loss at 150.85.<img src="https://804483479.gieqd.com/cms/f0fd3b5c54904ad39ba06ad98719cbdc_1733310167022.png" title="" alt=""/><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Trading Recommendation: <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Open a light short position at resistance 149.95.<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Target: 148.10.

USD/JPY Strategy - Pay Attention to This Week's Employment Data, USD/JPY Remains Weak

Fundamental Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Investor expectations for another rate hike by the Bank of Japan (BOJ) have risen recently, driving the yen&#39;s strength. While geopolitical risks and Trump’s tariff threats have contributed to safe-haven demand, the main driver of the yen&#39;s rally is the stronger-than-expected data. Last week, Tokyo&#39;s November CPI data showed accelerating inflation, and BOJ Governor Kazuo Ueda stated over the weekend that if inflation is confirmed to rise to 2%, the central bank will adjust its monetary easing policy at the appropriate time. With the Federal Reserve still showing more than a 50% probability of a rate cut in December, the increased likelihood of a BOJ rate hike is undoubtedly bolstering yen bulls. <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Technical Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">On the 15-minute USD/JPY chart, the price is in a descending range. If the price retraces to a supply and demand zone, a short position can be initiated from the uncompleted supply zone.

This has caused US oil prices to weaken temporarily as tensions ease. However, past experiences suggest that post-negotiation skirmishes may still occur. It’s too early to be overly optimistic about a definitive end to the wars, so continued monitoring of these conflicts is necessary. <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Additionally, last week’s OPEC+ meeting was postponed to this Thursday, mainly due to disagreements over extending the production cut agreement and how to allocate the cut quotas. There have also been reports of plans to gradually cancel the production cuts, which has led the market to anticipate that the meeting&#39;s delay is aimed at achieving this cancellation. If true, the restoration of oil supply would maintain the downward pressure on oil prices. <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Technical Analysis:<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">On the US oil hourly chart, after facing resistance, prices have resumed their downward trend, breaking below the previous low. The moving averages have shifted into a bearish alignment, indicating a bearish trend. However, the KD indicator shows a golden cross signal, suggesting a potential short-term rebound. Despite this, it&#39;s advised not to enter short-term long positions during bearish conditions.
