Overbought, overextended – What's the buzz in S&P 500 now? [Video]

Watch the video extracted from the WLGC session before the market open on 13 Feb 2024 below to find out the following:

  • The key support level for the Nasdaq 100

  • The directional bias for the long-term, swing and immediate term.

  • The red flags you need to be aware of in this current market.

  • and a lot more...

Market update 14 Feb 2024

A sharp selloff happened after the live session as the market reacted to the CPI data.

S&P 500 distribution day

The magnitude and supply are slightly less than 31 Jan 2023. So far yesterday’s drop in S&P 500 (ES) did not pose a great concern yet. 4850 is a meaningful support that needs to hold.

Meanwhile, Russell 2000 (RTY) had a more severe drop, as shown below:

Russell 2000 key support level

RTY failed at the key level - 2000 twice.

If it breaks below the support at 1925, the major indices like S&P 500, Nasdaq 100, and Dow Jones are likely to join the sell-off as Russell 2000 leads the way down.

A commitment above 2000 is the key to broadening market breadth and the bullish momentum will return.

We will get more clues in the next few days.

The bearish analogue in S&P 500 discussed in the tweet below is still valid and could be unfolding accordingly.

GBP/USD remains offered near 1.3470

GBP/USD adds to the multi-day negative streak and retreats toward the 1.3470 zone on Wednesday, or four-week troughs. Cable’s deep correction comes on the back of the unabated recovery in the Greenback and the persistent geopolitical concerns.

EUR/USD bounces off lows; still below 1.1600 post-ADP

EUR/USD now manages to pick up some pace and revisits the 1.1580 region on Wednesday. That said, the pair rebounds from earlier two-week lows following some loss of momentum in the US Dollar soon after the ADP report came in short of expectations in August.

Gold treads water above $4,300

Following an earlier pullback to the $4,280 region per troy ounce, Gold prices now regain some composure and reclaim the $4,300 mark, advancing modestly for the day and setting aside three consecutive days of losses. The precious metal’s lacklustre rebound comes amid modest gains in the US Dollar, steady geopolitical uncertainty and mixed US Treasury yields.

WTI advances to mid-$90.00s, fresh high since July 24 amid escalating US-Iran tensions

West Texas Intermediate (WTI) – the benchmark US Crude Oil price – scales higher for the third straight day – also marking the fifth day of a positive move in the previous six – and climbs to a fresh high since July 24 during the Asian session on Wednesday.

Crypto Today: Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP edge lower as renewed US-Iran tensions weigh

Diesel’s record $100 warning: The oil shock hiding in plain sight

The Oil market may look calmer than it did a few months ago, but diesel is sending a very different message. The US diesel crack spread, the premium of ultra-low sulphur diesel futures over WTI, recently surged above $100 per barrel for the first time, reaching an intraday record of just over $102.00.
