Nasdaq, S&P 500 and Dow Jones reach record highs [Video]

Last week we spotted this Falling Wedge on Silver (XAGUSD) and price action is getting tighter.

If you are not familiar with chart patterns, the Falling Wedge is a bullish pattern so, at some point, we may see a breakout to the upside.

Meanwhile, we are in a downtrend and we may have a short opportunity if price action bounces off this upper trend line.

If so, make sure you confirm on lower time frames and avoid going short if you see a situation like this.

Speaking of precious metals, the Symmetrical Pennant on Gold is getting tighter as well but be aware of this key level of support in the $2020 area.

If price action breaks below we could easily fall to $2000.

Since October the US equities have been a one-way market with every one hitting record levels based on good economic data and the possibility of lower interest rates this year.

We will be looking for dips in price action so stay alert to our videos.

An immediate opportunity exists with EURAUD as price action has just bounced off this lower trend line and the stochastic oscillator is turning up from oversold.

Just be aware of resistance at $1.66.

EUR/USD regains upside traction, returning to the 1.1880 zone and refocusing its attention to the key 1.1900 barrier.

GBP/USD remains well bid around 1.3650

GBP/USD maintains its upside momentum in place, hovering around daily highs near 1.3650 and setting aside part of the recent three-day drop.

Gold clings to gains just above $5,000/oz

Gold is reclaiming part of the ground lost on Wednesday’s marked decline, as bargain-hunters keep piling up and lifting prices past the key $5,000 per troy ounce. The precious metal’s move higher is also underpinned by the slight pullback in the US Dollar and declining US Treasury yields across the curve.

Crypto Today: Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP in choppy price action, weighed down by falling institutional interest

Week ahead – Data blitz, Fed Minutes and RBNZ decision in the spotlight

US GDP and PCE inflation are main highlights, plus the Fed minutes. UK and Japan have busy calendars too with focus on CPI. Flash PMIs for February will also be doing the rounds. RBNZ meets, is unlikely to follow RBA’s hawkish path.

Ripple Price Forecast: XRP potential bottom could be in sight

Ripple edges up above the intraday low of $1.35 at the time of writing on Friday amid mixed price actions across the crypto market. The remittance token failed to hold support at $1.40 the previous day, reflecting risk-off sentiment amid a decline in retail and institutional sentiment.
