EUR/USD Channel broken


  • Eur/usd pair has broken the upward moving channle it was trading in.
  • I was expecting resistance to come around 1.26 or near the ichimoku cloud. But the resistance has come even before that.

SP 500 facing resistance

  • SP 500 is not able to cross the 50% fib retracement level.
  • Any upside targets are possible only on a successful close above the 50% level.
  • SP 500 is not looking as strong as Dow which has managed to gap up above its 50% retracement level.   

Dow jones above fifty percent retracement

  • Dow jones had no problem in crossing the 50% fibs.
  • It made a gap up above the crucial level. 
  • Now this 50% retracement level should give it good support. 
  • If dow closes above this retracement number it will be very positive news for the bulls.
  • And under normal circumstance the 61.8% retracement should be the next target or the next resistance. I should say target because nothing seems to stop the market for the last two weeks. 

Dow jones trying to go above the ichimoku cloud


  • Dow jones is trying to go above the ichimoku cloude.
  • In daily chart if an index or stock trades above the cloud it is considered to be very bullish sign.
  • So if dow jones closes above the cloude today it may stretch this rally to new high's.

EUR/USD Hourly channel with ichimoku cloud

  • Eur/usd Hour chart is moving up in a channel.
  • The ichimoku cloud resistance is at 1.26.
  • But it seems to face resistance even before that. 
  • Right now trading near the bottom of the channel.

UPDATED CHART
DOW JONES BULL FLAG

  • Break out can give close to 90 points.

The Yuvan move may give a gap up for wall street


China is all set to be flexible on yuan's exchange rate. And this traders seems to be getting into risky assets because of this move. On monday the Yuvan rose to a 21 month high. The u.s treasuries fell on this news.

Asian currency's and stocks were trading higher on the news. Cude rose 2 percent mainly because this move may lead to china consuming more oil and more petroleum imports into china. And one main thing is this will ease some political tension with the west which will give traders some more confidence to invest in riskier assets.

Nifty's V shaped recovery


  • Nifty is trying for a V shaped recovery of its fall from 5399.
  • Currently we are at the 78.6% retracement level.
  • I feel if nifty  closes above 80% retracement level should take nifty above 5400.
  • But till then 78.6% may act as resistance level.

Gujarat nre coke ltd Death cross


  • The first chart shows that the 50 day moving average is waiting to cross below the 200 day moving average. The cross known as the death cross.
