WTI Crude (CL) edged lower Friday with a daily Gravestone, completing a weekly Gravestone that was rejected at a fresh 2024 high. Odds appear fairly elevated for a deeper consolidation by mid week to below the psychologically key 80 whole figure level…
USDCAD edged higher Friday, continuing a month plus consolidation around the psychologically key 1.35 whole figure level. The big picture is of the USDCAD near the midpoint of the range it has traded within since late 2022 (as can be seen easier on a monthly chart on tradingview.com), coinciding roughly with the 61.8% Fib retrace of the slide from the 2002 peak to 2007’s low…
Wheat (ZW) formed a daily Gravestone Friday, with last week’s weekly Doji closing just above the psychologically key 600 whole figure level. With the higher January low versus the November low, ZW continues to make progress in its efforts to form a major bottom (as can be seen on a monthly chart on tradingview.com)…
The EURUSD edged higher Friday, trying to halt the consolidation from the November high. Odds are moderate and rising for EURUSD to resume this week its bounce off the 2023 low…
Natural Gas (NG) surged more than 5% Friday, adding to the strong gains Thursday off just above the 2023 low. NG has now completed a major bottoming effort since May (as can be seen easier on a monthly chart on tradingview.com), but likely has a bit more upside this week before it bumps against the psychologically key 3.5 whole figure level and the August high…
The USDCAD surged more than 150 pips Friday from the day’s low (just above the September low) to the intraday high and close. The USDCAD has bounced off an uptrend support that began in July (as seen on the weekly chart), closing last week above the psychologically key 1.35 whole figure level…
The USDCHF is consolidating just below the April high after last week’s decisive breakout above descending wedge resistance (on the weekly chart). Nevertheless, the bounce off the 2023 low and the weekly chart descending wedge support to well above the psychologically key 0.90 whole figure level appears to have formed a major bottom (as can be seen easier on a monthly chart on tradingview.com)…
The VIX (VX) is consolidating for a second straight day Wednesday’s surge, appearing poised to continue next week efforts at a major bottom with the green weekly Tombstone trying to bounce off the 2023 low. Any break today above downchannel resistance (on the 4hr chart) and descending wedge resistance (on the daily chart) will dramatically increase odds next week of a break of the weekly chart descending wedge resistance….
The USDCHF is consolidating after surging from Monday’s low, hesitating at triangle resistance (on the daily chart) and digesting this week’s break above descending wedge resistance (on the weekly chart). With the USDCHF comfortably above the psychologically key 0.90 whole figure level, odds are decent for renewed momentum next week in the bounce off the 2023 low and the weekly chart descending wedge support…
Wheat (ZW) has just made a fresh 2023 low Friday, but could be about to see some short covering as it tries to bounce off the weekly chart descending wedge support. With ZW near complete on the weekly chart descending wedge, odds are higher for a test of wedge resistance this week than it is for a test of the psychologically key 600 whole figure level…
