Emini S&P futures

Emini S&P SEPTEMBER futures tested strong support at 7490/7485 but unfortunately longs stopped below 7475 before a bounce from just below here at 7469.

The bounce has reached 7554 as I write, with minor short term trend line resistance at 7580/7590.

A break above 7600 is a buy signal targeting 7612/14 & 7636/43.

First support again at 7490/7480 but a break below 7470 risks a slide to 7425/15 for profit taking on shorts.

Emini Nasdaq futures

Emini Nasdaq SEPTEMBER break below 29130 was a short term sell signal targeting 28900/800 for some profit taking....we made a low for the day at 28910.

I hope the trade worked for you.

We have seen a good recovery & are currently trading above yesterday's high of 29558.

The level of 29575/29535 should be key to direction.

Holding above here can target 29620/650 then 29720/770.

A break above 29810 should be a buy signal targeting 29860/890 then resistance at 29900/30000 - a good chance of a high for the day if tested but shorts need stops above 30100.

Failure to hold above 29575/29535 risks a slide to minor support at 29350/270.

A break below 29210 can retest 28900/28800.

If we continue lower this time look for a retest of June lows at 28550/510.

Emini Dow Jones futures

Emini Dow Jones SEPTEMBER collapsed breaking first support at 53100/52900 to target strong support at 52550/450.

Sorry for the typo yesterday - longs needed stops below 52300....so the trade worked perfectly with a low for the day at 52343 & a recovery to 52760 as I write.

We could push higher to minor resistance at 52830/880. A high for the morning is certainly possible - maybe we will range sideways for a while.

However a break above 52950 targets 53130/170.

A move back below 52600 suggests weakness and a retest of strong support at 52550/450.

Again, longs needed stops below 52300.

A break lower targets 52100/52000.

AUD/USD edges higher as hot CPI inflation and hawkish RBA lift rate hike bets

The AUD/USD pair gathers strength to near 0.7035 during the Asian trading hours on Friday. The Australian Dollar edges higher against the US Dollar as hotter Australian CPI inflation data has bolstered expectations of Reserve Bank of Australia rate hikes.

USD/JPY meets support near 157.00

USD/JPY retreats for the third consecutive day on Friday, revisiting the 157.00 region before attempting some recovery as investors continue to assess the latest BoJ meeting, where the central bank left rates unchanged, as widely anticipated.

Gold sinks to fresh yearly lows despite risk-off mood as Fed rate hike bets weigh

Gold slips to fresh year-to-date lows on Friday. The metal struggles despite a risk-off mood across markets, as expectations of further Federal Reserve (Fed) interest rate hikes continue to dominate price action, leaving Gold on track to end the month in negative territory.

Ripple Price Forecast: XRP bulls defend $1.20 as sell-side pressure triggers liquidations

Ripple (XRP) trades around $1.25 on Friday, rising from a short-term support level established at $1.20. This minor upward correction follows a sharp sell-off, triggered amid reports of a hack attack on the Binance exchange that impacted approximately $6.3 billion. The attack drove the broader crypto market on edge, as Binance suspended both deposits and withdrawals to contain the situation.

BoJ recap: A pause for now... but Japan has entered a new inflation phase

The Bank of Japan left its short-term policy rate unchanged at 1.25% but delivered a distinctly hawkish message on the risk of an inflation overshoot. The decision passed by 8-1, with board member Takata dissenting in favour of an increase to 1.5%, while Governor Kazuo Ueda stressed that the Bank would continue adjusting policy as needed.

The 2% inflation target came from a throwaway remark. It now moves trillions

The Federal Reserve's 2% inflation goal grew out of an off-the-cuff remark by a New Zealand politician in 1988. Bond investors still price long-term US debt as if 2% holds, so a change in how the Fed measures inflation would move markets.
