Dax is trading in fifth wave, Elliott Wave analysis

Gregor Horvat Wavetraders

We talked about DAX already back in August, when we spotted a perfect textbook pattern and support for wave (IV), from where we can now see DAX already back to highs for wave (V) with space up to 19500 - 20000 area. CLICK HERE

Looking at the 4-hour chart, we can see a strong rebound that looks like an impulse but there can be more gains coming after the current reversal which should then be wave four, now at 18300-18200 support we talked about it last week. So, still watch out on a bullish resumption within 5th wave towards 19500 - 20000 area, especially if breaks back above 19k area. Just in case if DAX faces more weakness decisively below 18k area, then wave 5 can be alternatively in place.

AUD/USD hits nine-week lows below 0.7000 on RBA Bullock's remarks

AUD/USD reverses a brief uptick and turns lower to hit nine-week lows below 0.7000 in the European morning on Tuesday, as traders digest cautious remarks from Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) Governor Michele Bullock during the press conference. Earlier on, the RBA raised the cash rate to 4.60%, as widely expected, leaving the door open to further rate hikes if needed.

USD/JPY consolidates near 157.50 as a bullish USD counters intervention risks

USD/JPY struggles to capitalize on the overnight bounce from a one-week low, consolidating around 157.50 in the Asian session on Tuesday. Trump's concerns about the Japanese Yen's weakness fueled speculation about another US-Japan joint intervention. This, along with the hawkish BoJ, underpins the JPY and caps the currency pair. Meanwhile, rising Fed rate-hike bets and oil-driven inflation fears continue to push US bond yields to multi-year highs, keeping the US Dollar pinned near a two-month high and supporting the pair.

Gold: Bulls seem hesitant as Fed hike bets, higher bond yields, and bullish USD cap upside

Gold clings to modest recovery gains through the first half of the European session, albeit it lacks follow-through and remains below $4,150. Moreover, the bearish fundamental backdrop keeps the precious metal within striking distance of the lowest level since August 4, around the $4,100 neighborhood touched on Monday, and warrants caution before positioning for any meaningful appreciation.

Chainlink trims gains after CCIP 2.0 launch, Swift ledger integration

Chainlink (LINK) edges below $15.00 on Tuesday, trimming its 10% gains from the previous day, driven by the launch of its new Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol 2.0 and Swift ledger integration for tokenized deposits and 24/7 cross-border payments.

Focus turns to US job openings

In the euro area, focus turns to the September flash inflation print for Spain which will give the first indication of where the euro area data on Friday lands. We expect a modest rise in headline due to higher energy costs and a small increase in core inflation. We also receive the European Commission's business survey for September.

Fed vs BoJ: Both hiked. The market only believes one of them – and the chart shows which

The Fed and the BoJ have just done something remarkably similar. Both central banks raised interest rates by 25 bps last week, both are confronting inflation risks, and both signal that future decisions will depend on incoming economic data.
