Stock markets remain volatile

Emini S&P June futures

  • Emini S&P held support at 5380/60 for a few hours but longs were only offered around 50 points profit (which normally would be huge) before we broke below 5345.

  • If you managed to sell the break we hit targets of 5280/75 & 5220/00.

  • We made a low for the day exactly at strong support at 5155/35 & longs need stops below 5120 on any retest today.

  • Longs worked perfectly on bounce back towards 5360/80.

  • Obviously this is resistance  for today.

  • Shorts need stops above 5410.

  • Further gains target 5425 & a break above 5430 can target 5440 then 5475/80.

  • Resistance at 5500/10 & shorts need stops above 5530.

Chart

Nasdaq June futures

  • Emini Nasdaq broke the 1st support to sink as far as 18,000 - 17,900 but made a low for the day exactly at this support.

  • A break below 17750 however risks a slide to 17400/350, perhaps as far as 17300/250.

  • Minor resistance at 18675/18775

  • A break above 18900 however opens the door 19100/200 before a retest of 19330/380.

  • A break above 19,500 can target trend line resistance at 19700/750 so a break above 19800 should be a buy signal targeting 20,000 to 20,100.

  • A high for the day is possible here.

Chart

Emini Dow Jones June futures

  • Emini Dow Jones broke support at 39,900/ 39,600 to trigger a move to 39,000 & strong support at 38800/38700.

  • Longs here worked perfectly with a low for the day at 38631 & a 1400 point bounce.

  • Minor resistance at 40000/40200 is key to direction this morning.

  • Shorts need stops above 40400.

  • A break higher targets 40550/650 before a retest of 41000/41140.

  • A break above 41,400 should be a buy signal for today Targeting 41,750 / 41,850 With resistance at 41,900 /42,100 And shorts need stops above 42,400.

  • Failure to beat minor resistance at 40000/40200 targets 39500/400 before a retest of  strong support at 38800/38700.

  • Longs need stops below 38550.

  • A break lower can target 38200/100.

GBP/USD advances to daily tops around 1.3650

GBP/USD now manages to pick up extra pace, clinching daily highs around 1.3650 and leaving behind three consecutive daily pullbacks on Friday.

Gold surpasses $5,000/oz, daily highs

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 yellow metal’s upside is also propped up by the lack of clear direction around the US Dollar post-US CPI release.

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

Bitcoin's upside remains largely constrained amid weak technicals and declining institutional interest. Ethereum trades sideways above $1,900 support with the upside capped below $2,000 amid ETF outflows.

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

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.
