Emini S&P December futures

Emini S&P support at 6050/45 is obviously key to direction again this week.
Longs here can target 6057, 6066, 6070, perhaps as far as 6081/83. (all targets were hit yesterday)
Just be aware that a break below 6040 can target a buying opportunity at 6020/10 & longs need stops below 6000.
On a break above 6112 we can target 6126/31 & eventually 6170/75 is possible.

Nasdaq December futures

The break above 21840 targets 21920 (hit), perhaps as far as 22200/250 this week.
On further gains look for 22290/299.
First support at 21920/820 & longs need stops below 21750.

Emini Dow Jones December futures

We broke support at 44580/520 to target support at 43930/850 as predicted & longs here were stopped below 43750.
A break lower tests the 50 day moving average at 43590/550.
If we continue lower we meet the 4 month ascending trend line at 43300/250.
Resistance at 44000/100 could see a high for the day but shorts need stops above 44200.

GBP/USD extends the drop to 1.3360

GBP/USD builds on Monday’s decline and briefly clinches five-day lows near 1.3360 on Tuesday. Cable’s extra pullback follows the better tone in the Greenback as uncertainty in the Middle East prompts investors to adopt a cautious stance. Meanwhile, an apathetic UK labour market report also collaborates with the selling pressure on the British Pound.

EUR/USD stays offered just above 1.1400

EUR/USD keeps the downtrend well in place for yet another day, challenging the 1.1400 contention zone on Tuesday. The continuation of the selling impulse in spot comes amid decent gains in the US Dollar, which continues to find support in the persistent effervescence surrounding the US-Iran crisis.

Middle East crisis intensifies, Gold up

Gold now seems to have embarked on a consolidative phase below the key $4,100 mark per troy ounce in the latter part of Tuesday’s session. Meanwhile, uncertainty surrounding the Middle East conflict and rising expectations for a hawkish Fed policy outlook are expected to limit the precious metal’s bullish momentum in the near term.

XRP extends recovery as on-chain activity grows

Ripple (XRP) ticks up and trades around $1.13 at the time of writing on Tuesday. This rebound aligns with a broader recovery in the cryptocurrency market, attributed to reports that mediators between the United States (US) and Iran are seeking a 10-day cessation of strikes to find a way back to the signed Memorandum of Understanding (MoU).

The Iranian war has again risen

The Iranian war has again risen to the top of the economics factor list. There is no end in sight. Intelligence experts say the current level of offense/retaliation will not change minds in Tehran, while in Washington, Trump fears all-out war, which would mean boots on the ground.

US Dollar mid-year outlook: Exceptional currency, exceptional risks?

The US Dollar enters the second half of 2026 in a markedly different position from a year ago. The King currency has recovered, reflecting persistent US inflation, changing expectations for Fed policy, geopolitical tensions and renewed demand for defensive assets.
