XAUUSD - Rallies Back to $1830 as OECD Lifts Global Economic Outlook

on December 3, 2020 | By Stuart McPhee | XAUUSD, Gold

In the last two days the XAUUSD has rallied well off four month lows below $1770 to return to near $1830. It has in the last few weeks eased away from the resistance at the key $1900 level moving to the lows after spending a considerable amount of time trading around $1900. If the XAUUSD is to continue to rally back to $1900, it is highly likely to experience further resistance at this level. In the last few weeks, the $1900 level has been providing more resistance, whereas previously it was trading comfortably back and forth around this level. It recently surged through to a six week high above $1960 before falling even more sharply returning all gains in falling to a five week low around $1850.

US30 - Remains Under Resistance at 30000 as Economic Outlook ‘extraordinarily uncertain’

on December 2, 2020 | By Stuart McPhee | US30

In the last few weeks the US30 index has applied lots of pressure on the key 30000 level which has stood up and resisted prices firmly keeping the index below this level for the most part. This has happened especially in the last week where every day the index has moved to 30000 attempting to push through, although it has been able to move through to a new all time high. During this time it has also been well supported by the 29000 level. In the last three weeks it has traded above this key level in a range up to 30000 and three weeks ago, the US30 index made its first run towards 30000 and in doing so, smashed through resistance at 29000, which has applied downward pressure on the index for some time. In that initial surge higher, it also pushed strongly through 27000 and 28000 which have play a significant role in the price action of the US30 in the last few months. Having supported prices for the last three weeks, the 29000 will be expected to continue to prop up the index.

AUDUSD - Eases from 0.74 as JobKeeper Labelled a 'country-saving moment'

on December 1, 2020 | By Stuart McPhee | AUDUSD

In the last few weeks the AUDUSD has steadily climbed higher to reach a three month high just above 0.74 before falling in the last 24 hours. For around two weeks, the AUDUSD rested on and enjoyed solid support from the key 0.7250 level having surged higher in the week prior through the key level. Prior to the surge it had fallen sharply back down through support at the key 0.7050 level down to a three month low below 0.70, before rallying strongly, and continuing higher in the last week. Having resisted prices so strongly, it was no surprise that the 0.7250 level stepped in and offered support once it was broken through so strongly. If it can remain well supported by the key 0.7250 level, it may very well threaten the two year high above 0.74 set in August.

Market Recap: 23 - 27 November

on November 30, 2020 | By Stuart McPhee | EURUSD, USDJPY, DJIA, UKOil, US30

On Tuesday last week we covered UK Oil which spent the remainder of the week continuing to push higher before easing a little. In the last week or so, UK Oil surged higher from support at the key $43 level moving to its highest level in nine months near $49. In the few days before the recent surge, it eased back to the $43 level and enjoyed some support. In the two weeks prior, UK Oil surged from its lowest level in five months below $36.50 back up to the key $43 level which has again provided stiff resistance before it was able to break through to above $45 before falling back sharply to $43.

USDJPY - Eases to Support at 104 as BOJ Balks from Negative Rates

on November 27, 2020 | By Stuart McPhee | USDJPY

In the last few days, the USDJPY has eased lower back towards the current key level at 104 where it has enjoyed some much needed support, having moved sharply in the two weeks prior. It had recently surged back above this level having fallen very sharply from a three week high above 105.50 which it reached after its largest single day move in more than six months moving it from an eight month low up to that high above 105.50. Prior to the surge, it was trading at the low down near 103 after having broken through the strong support at the key 104 level. Prior to the support at 104, the USDJPY had eased back over the previous few weeks from a three week high above 106. It will be interesting to see if it can now maintain the support at 104 and remain above this level, and if the volatility returns to normal.

EURUSD - Threatens Resistance at Key 1.19 Level as ECB Warns over Bank Profits

on November 26, 2020 | By Stuart McPhee | EURUSD

In the last week, the EURUSD has maintained pressure on resistance at the key 1.19 level, however in the last 24 hours, it has poked up above this level to reach a three month high. Any recent attempts to move through this level have been rejected swiftly so it will be interesting to see how well it can maintain the break or whether it is sold off again. A few weeks ago, the EURUSD surged higher from below the other current key level of 1.17, before running into the resistance at 1.19. Throughout October, the EURUSD rested on support at the 1.17 level as it reinforced itself as a key level, continuing to prop up the EURUSD and keep it within the range between it and the other key level at 1.19.

US30 - Surges to Above 30000 as Janet Yellen Chosen for U.S. Treasury

on November 25, 2020 | By Stuart McPhee | DJIA, US30

In the last two days the US30 index has surged higher off the key 29000 level pushing to all time highs. In the last two weeks it has traded above this key level in a range up to 30000, however in the last day it has pushed to new highs. Two weeks ago, the US30 index made its first run towards 30000 and in doing so, smashed through resistance at 29000, which has applied downward pressure on the index for some time. In that initial surge higher, it also pushed strongly through 27000 and 28000 which have play a significant role in the price action of the US30 in the last few months. Having supported prices for the last two weeks, the 29000 will be expected to continue to prop up the index.
