EUR/USD -16/03/2023-• Technical picture in favor of the bears
• 2 bearish patterns on daily chart
• First pattern is the broadening pattern highlighted in yellow
• Second pattern is head and shoulders highlighted in green
• 1.0500 support is very critical at the moment ( neckline of head and shoulders and previous pivot low )
• Yesterday's drop penetrated the 20 MA which is now acting as resistance
• Bulls need to overcome 1.0730 resistance to turn the trend in their favors
Fed
How FED / ECB Interest rates set trendsWatch how interest rates decisions set trends in EURUSD and Dollar Index impacting the entire forex market.
I marked all the previous interest hike decisions by FED and ECB.
2023 EURUSD bullish reversal was triggerred by ECB starting to raise iterest rates (after EUR hit the alarming 1.00 level). EUR might continue bullish until next tow hikes. From what I read ECB does not plan to hike rates for the rest of the year after May meeting (rates will stay at 4), so it is likely to trigger bearish reversal from May.
Likelwise, 2020 EUR bullish ride (and dollar weakness) was triggerred by FED lowering interest rates (in March 2020) after COVID hit.

XAUEUR breaking the up trend channel for more upside push!At the beginning of the year OANDA:XAUEUR broke the down side channel. While banks are bankrupting, we see once again gold is the safe heaven for many people. Most importantly for the central banks which have been accumulating physical gold. FED and ECB will struggle to further increase the interest rates. We may see new ATH within a couple of months! Crazy times again.

British pound's rally fizzles as markets settle downThe British pound has reversed directions after an impressive rally that saw GBP/USD climb 370 points. In the European session, GBP/USD is trading at 1.2154, down 0.24%.
The collapse of the Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) on Friday sent the financial markets into turmoil on Monday. US bank stocks declined sharply, while safe-haven gold powered higher. The US dollar retreated against the major currencies and the 2-year Treasury yield fell almost a full point. Tuesday has brought better news, as the markets appear to have settled down. The US dollar has regrouped and is higher against the majors.
There is an uneasy calm in the air, but that doesn't necessarily mean that this latest crisis is behind us. Investors are on alert and will be very sensitive to new developments and any negative news could renew market volatility. The Fed and Treasury Department acted quickly to protect depositors and President Biden sent a reassuring message at an impromptu television address, but the collapse of the 16th largest lender in the US means it's unlikely to be "business as usual" for some time.
It was just a week ago that Fed Chair Powell's hawkish testimony on the Hill raised expectations of the Fed delivering a 50-bp increase at the March 22 meeting. Those expectations have vanished into smoke, with the markets now expecting a 25-bp hike, with an outside chance of a pause. We could see further market repricing after today's CPI report, with headline CPI expected to fall to 6.0%, down from 6.4%.
In the UK, the employment report was within expectations. The unemployment rate remained at 3.7%, shy of the estimate of 3.8%. Hourly earnings fell to 5.7%, as expected, down from an upwardly revised 6%. The pound hasn't reacted to the release and the data is unlikely to change minds at the Bank of England, which is expected to raise rates by 25 bp at the March 23 meeting.
GBP/USD tested resistance at 1.2113 earlier in the day. Above, there is resistance at 1.2294
There is support at 1.1984 and 1.1854
SVB: Understanding and Managing Interest Rate Risks CBOT: 10-Year Treasury Futures ( CBOT:ZN1! )
Last Wednesday, Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) NASDAQ:SIVB announced that it incurred $1.8 billion loss in the sales of its bond portfolio and sought to issue new shares. Within 48 hours, a bank-run induced by panic customers brought down the legendary bank.
On Friday, US banking regulators seized control of SVB. By Sunday, the Treasury Department, the Federal Reserve, and Federal Depository Insurance Corporation (FDIC) jointly announced a rescue plan that would make whole all depositors. However, SVB shareholders are not protected.
Why has happened to the well-respected and once well-capitalized bank?
Opportunity and Risk Go Side-by-Side
Traditional banks seldom extend credit to startups, which are mostly under-collateralized, with little or no profit and big uncertainties about their future survival.
SVB developed a niche competitive edge to provide banking services to companies funded by venture capitals. In the past 40 years, it nurtured many high-profiled tech startups through their entire life cycle, from early-stage to IPO and to Big-Tech giants.
If Sequoia Capital invested in your firm and you apply for a loan from a commercial bank, you can expect the loan officer to ask: “Sequoia Who?” But if you go to SVB, they would say: “$10 million will be in your account tomorrow.”
VCs are exceptionally good at spotting future technological trends, and they follow a rigorous due diligence process to pick investing targets. By working with VCs and startups closely, SVB created an ecosystem that foster technological innovations, and grew to become the 16th largest US bank by deposit.
However, SVB’s concentration in the high-tech sector also make it vulnerable to a boom-and-bust cycle. Last year, bear market hit the industry hard. Publicly traded firms couldn’t raise money with falling share prices. Private companies found the path to IPO got blocked. As startup clients withdrew deposits to keep their companies afloat, SVB is short on capital. It was forced to sell most available-for-sale bonds at a huge loss.
Bad news travelled fast in close-knit tech investing community. VCs urged their portfolio companies to get the hack out of SVB. All told, customers withdrew a staggering $42 billion of deposits on Thursday. By the close of business day, SVB had a negative cash balance of $958 million, according to the filing, and this triggered the government takeover.
A Commercial Bank with a Failing Grade
In fiscal year 2022, SVB earned $4.5 billion in Net Interest Income (NII) and $1.7 billion in non-interest income. When you take away the bells and whistles, SVB is by large a commercial bank. About 73% of its revenue comes from taking in deposits at a low interest rate and making loans at a higher interest rate.
Based on its 2022 10K filing, SVB managed $209.2 billion in total interest-bearing asset and earned $5.7 billion. This represented an effective yield of 2.73%. During the same period, SVB paid out $1.2 billion in funding cost, which equated to 0.57%.
• Therefore, in 2022, its NII = 2.73% - 0.57% = 2.16%
• In comparison, its NII for year 2021 was 2.02% (=2.09% - 0.07%).
• On the surface, SVB was doing well, with NII spread increasing by 14 basis points year-over-year.
What has gone wrong then? Dive deeper into SVB’s balance sheet, we see the long-dated Treasury bonds and illiquid mortgage-backed securities it held got hammered by the rising interest rates. Simply put, SVB got its interest payment back, but the value of its investment principal eroded in a huge way in a rate-hiking environment. All in all, managing interest rate risk is at the core of banking business.
A Naked Bond Portfolio
In its 10K, SVB puts its investment portfolio in Available-For-Sales (AFS), Held-To-Maturity (HTM) and Non-marketable securities categories.
AFS balance was $26.1 billion as of December 31st, including:
• U.S. Treasury securities $ 16,135m (61.9%)
• Agency-issued MBS $6,603m (25.3%)
• Agency-issued CMBS $1,464m (5.6%)
• Foreign government debt securities $1,088m (4.2%)
• Agency-issued CMO—fixed rate $678m (2.6%)
• U.S. agency debentures $101m (0.4%)
• Total AFS securities $26,069m (100%)
Last week, SVB sold $21 billion in the AFS portfolio and incurred a loss of $1.8 billion, or -8.6%. AFS assets are marked to market every quarter. My understanding is that the loss figure was based on selling price vs. year-end fair market value.
Total loss calculated from purchasing price could be much bigger, as these bonds may have been marked down multiple times during previous quarters. Evidence: Since March 2022, CBOT 10-Year Treasury Futures (ZN) price went down from 124 to 109 (-12%) and 30-Year Treasury Bond (ZB) fell from 152 to 118 (-22%).
CBOT Treasury futures market, with its sheer size and liquidity, makes it the marketplace of choice to manage interest risk in times of uncertainties. Each ZN contract has a notional value of $100,000.
• On Monday March 13th, daily trading volume is 3,760,911 lots, which translates into total notional of $376 billion. Open interest (OI) stands at 4,311,338, or $431 billion in notional.
• Volume and OI for ZB are 719,518 and 1,209,881, respectively. Notional value for each is $72 billion and $121 billion, respectively.
What’s Next
On Friday, Signature Bank customers spooked by the SVB collapse withdrew $10 billion. That quickly led to the bank failure. Regulators announced Sunday that Signature was being taken over to protect its depositors and the stability of the U.S. financial system.
Despite government intervention over the weekend, fear ran contagious through the financial industry this Monday. San Francisco’s First Republic Bank, which had $212 billion in assets at the end of 2022, saw its stock price plunge as much as 70% when the market opened Monday morning.
By market close, US stock market stabilized. Investors wonder if a banking crisis could be the final punch to end the year-long Fed rate hikes.
Lessons Learnt
As investors, we usually allocate our financial assets across various instruments, such as stocks, bonds, and derivatives. The 60 (stock) / 40 (bond) portfolio is the most popular advice from Wall Street.
People generally pay more attention to what stocks to buy and hold, but we may not think twice about managing interest risk in a rising rate environment. The SVB fallout shows that even the safest, risk-free Treasury bonds, if not actively managed, could fall prey to interest rate changes and liquidity risk, resulting in loss of market value.
For me, this is a wake-up call and a good time to review my bond holdings. Some may be hidden in a 401K retirement plan. Hedging interest rate risk with CBOT Treasury futures and Micro Yield futures could go a long way to stay solvent.
A View on Interest Rate Trajectory
Today, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reports that the consumer price index rose 0.4% in February and 6% from a year ago, in line with market expectations. This is the most recent data the Fed will consider before it makes interest decision on March 22nd.
Inflation is cooling, but still too high. A bank run shows how damaging rising interest rate is to the economy. Whether the Fed will continue its rate hikes, pause them, or end them altogether, I think all options are open.
In my view, interest rate is in an uncharted territory once again. With investors in panic mode, they will likely overreact to the Fed decision. This may be a good time to place an order of out-of-the-money options on CBOT 10-Year Treasury Futures (ZN).
On March 14th, the June ZN contract is quoted at 113’220. Quoting convention in Treasury market is 100 and 1/64th. The quote reads as (113 + 22.0/64), or $113.34375 on $100 par value.
If the Fed slows or pause the hike, Treasury price will likely go up. Call options would be appropriate in this case.
• The 115-strike call is quoted 0’20 (=20/64). This is converted into $312.5 premium on the $100,000 contract notional for each contract.
If the Fed stays its course on fighting inflation, Treasury price could fall. And put options would be a way to express your view.
• The 112-strike put is quoted 0’14, or $218.75 premium per contract.
Happy Trading.

EUR/USD Rises Past 1.07, Investors Bet On A Less Aggressive FedThe EUR/USD pair advanced beyond the 1.0700 level on Monday despite the risk-off environment prompted by the Silicon Valley Bank shutdown. The greenback suffered the pressure of lower U.S. yields amid expectations the Federal Reserve will have to hold the trigger on rates amid the banking sector turmoil and somewhat disappointing jobs data.
At the time of writing, the EUR/USD pair is trading at 1.0730, up 0.85% on the day, after hitting a one-month high of 1.0738. Meanwhile, the DXY Index has fallen below the 104.00 level to trade at its lowest level since February 16, around 103.65, recording a 0.95% daily loss.
Investors' focus now shifts to U.S. consumer inflation data on Tuesday as President Joe Biden attempts to calm down banking system fears. Still, the banking crisis could offset macroeconomic data ahead of the Fed's meeting.
Investors are cutting down expectations of a 50 bps rate hike at the March 21-22 meeting. Against this backdrop, the U.S. bond yield plummeted across the curve on Monday, as the 10-year yield is trading at 3.47%, down by nearly 6%. The 2- and 5-year bond rates stand at 4.17% (-9%) and 3.69% (-6.8%), respectively.
The market's pace will likely continue to be driven by risk flows and investors' expectations on how the Fed will respond. FOMC officials must now weigh the trade-off between controlling inflation and lending some air to the financial system.
From a technical perspective, according to indicators on the daily chart, the EUR/USD pair holds a slightly bullish short-term outlook. The RSI and MACD jumped to positive territory, and the pair now trades above its main moving averages.
On the upside, the following resistance levels line up around 1.0740 and at the 1.0800 level ahead of the more relevant 1.0900 zone, which is the 50% retracement of the 1.2266-0.9535 decline. On the downside, supports are seen at the 20-day SMA at 1.0630, followed by the 1.0600 psychological mark and the 1.0540 zone (100-day SMA).
Euro hits 1-month high as Silicon Valley Bank collapse weighs onThe euro has posted sharp gains at the start of the week, extending its rally against a retreating US dollar. In the North American session, EUR/USD is trading at 1.0740, up 0.95% and its highest level since February 15.
Perhaps it is fitting that today's economic calendar has no US or European releases, allowing investors to focus their full attention on the fallout from the collapse of the Silicon Valley Bank (SVB). This is the largest US bank to fail since 2008 and understandably, investors are alarmed that the contagion could spread and the US banking system could be at risk. Over the weekend, New York officials closed Signature Bank, one of the main banks in the cryptocurrency sector.
The US government acted decisively and said SVB depositors (but not investors) would be protected and President Biden made a television appearance to reassure a nervous public that the banking sector is safe and those responsible for the SVB collapse would be held accountable. The fact that Biden had to address the nation reflects fears that the SVB failure could trigger a full-blown banking crisis.
The SVB collapse has sent the US dollar in retreat against the majors, as the market expectations of a 50-bp hike from the Fed next week have evaporated. Just last week, the markets had priced a 50-bp hike at 70% and a 25-bp increase at 30%. That has shifted to a 70% likelihood of a 25-bp increase and a 30% chance of the Fed taking a pause, with a zero chance of a 50-bp hike. Goldman Sachs had projected a 25-bp last week but now expects the Fed to pause.
The US releases CPI on Tuesday and the release was expected to play a key role in the Fed rate decision, but that was before the SVB collapse triggered a massive repricing in the markets. Still, the inflation report will be widely watched by investors and by the Fed. Headline inflation is expected to fall to 6.0% in February, after a 6.4% gain in January.
EUR/USD is testing resistance at 1.0718. The next resistance level is 1.0798
There is support at 1.0622 and 1.0542
The current context is serious | Forex-Indices-Stocks-Crypto |It seems that inflation is considered the devil for the markets, so the focus will be on the next Fed meeting scheduled for March 22nd. Last week we saw a strong increase in NFP and this could be the first sign of a hawkish FED, but this week we will see the second and final sign for the markets: CPI release. These two drivers will complete the big economic figure ahead of the interest rate announcement.
In recent weeks Governor J.P has been under a lot of pressure from the financial community (including Janet Yellen, Treasury Secretary and former Fed Governor) due to the large risk of contraction and the impact of such aggressive monetary policy. But perhaps the news about failure of some banks could prove to be a strong ally of Powell. Why am I saying that? If the Fed's target is to drag the US economy into a mild recession to try and get inflation back to around 2 percent, concern that these two failures could be contagious within the banking sector could help Powell achieve the first target: "bring down inflation...".
Even the geopolitical context should not be underestimated: The war in Ukraine and China-United States tensions over Taiwan.
We will see the impact on the main markets (dollar, SP500, gold...) in the second part of this analysis.

You Got To Be Aware!
Good Luck Out There!
A traders' week ahead playbook - the Fed bring out the big gunsWe start the week on a positive note but with such event risk in front of us volatility remains something that traders need to adjust too and respect.
After spending most of the weekend debating who was to blame for SVB Financials demise and who was next in the firing line, we’ve seen the Fed uniting with the US Treasury and the FDIC to bring out the big guns - all strategically timed for the futures open – we’ve seen that Signature Bank has also failed, but in both cases depositors are fully covered and will have access to all deposited capital – this removes a major source of contagion risk and depositors across regional and smaller banks know categorically that the Fed won’t make you wear a haircut and have your back.
We’ve seen a suite of other facilities announced aimed at addressing liquidity and funding concerns – notably, banks can access term funding using collateral valued at par – this is a big deal for banks and a clear positive given collateral used for funding was valued at a discount in the current rate cycle – so funding assets, especially for the more destressed financial institutions is now cheaper.
The Fed are not only addressing concerns over the bank’s asset side of the balance sheet but on the liability side, where they are essentially stepping in front of a larger bank run, which as we’ve seen once again can be devastatingly swift to bring down any institution. The Treasury has been keen to highlight that SVB Financial, which primarily failed to hedge its interest rate exposure, is not being bailed out and it’s the depositors that are their sole focus - the Fed are essentially the lender of last resort.
Still, there's likely going to be further migrations to the stronger banks and those with a large asset base and low equity will continue to see depositors divest capital.
The reaction in markets has so far been positive with the USD following a further rally in the US 2yr Treasury, with yields -11bp on the day. The market now prices ‘just’ 27bp at the 22 March FOMC meeting – we see 61bp of hikes now priced through mid-2023, down from over 100bp last week.
Certainly, the data over the past five days is a tailwind to lower interest rate expectations. Clearly, the deterioration in the asset quality held on bank’s balance sheet - much of which is not marked-to-market to show the impact of unrealised losses - is a major consideration.
The USD is lower vs all major currencies, notably vs the MXN and AUD, where the additional headwind of US equity futures gaining 1.3% is weighing as relief comes into the market. We should see low volatility priced in the VIX index.
One questions how long this goodwill lasts and while the troika of US institutions provides a backstop, it's still concerning that we’re in this position - what other black swans could come as a result of the rapid shift in interest rates?
The price action in the KRE ETF (S&P Regional Bank ETF) could offer broader market direction, while we watch the extent of relief seen in single stock names such as First Republic and Charles Schwab (Pepperstone clients can trade these on MT5) – but also in USD funding and other risk metrics, such as the difference between secured and non-secured funding.
Looking ahead and sentiment in markets and the subsequent price action will most likely be affected by the US CPI print. This is key now and the marquee known event risk that could really move markets around. Naturally given the recent repricing lower in rates expectations it suggests a core CPI print below 0.3% MoM could get the risk party really started.
Conversely, above 0.5% MoM could see the market really open the door to a 50bp hike again – the higher the outcome obviously the bigger the rally in the USD and drawdown in equity markets. The market is seeing a higher probability of an above consensus CPI print, but I think we get a more pronounced move in markets on a lower print than the move we could see on a higher outcome – especially if core services ex-housing was to come in weaker. I guess we’ll never know though.
We will also see US retail sales and PPI, and both could impact given the hotter prints we saw last month. Aussie and UK jobs and the ECB meeting will also get close attention from traders.
It's another huge week in the markets – we could be staring at a big rally in risky assets if inflation comes in soft and we see a sustained rally in financials – where the markets increase conviction that the Fed are close to a pause. Conversely, one can make a compelling counterargument to that, based on an alternate set of outcomes.
The fact remains traders need to consider their leverage, and position size and be agile to change – we react, we cut losers without emotion and move on, and we respect but harness the volatility.
Is the DXY in trouble!?? Before we start all views are my own and are based from my overall personal research.
As we have covered in previous markups and breakdowns we are taking our major lows on the larger timeframes on the DXY.
Here we have a pretty simply markup here for DXY iam only looking at this for a short term idea overall i strongly believe we are set for some serious downside on the USD and with this iam waiting for a true shift to show itself...
As many countries begin to decouple from the USD and the fed continues pushing the price to unsustainable levels with consistent printing of new currency we are watching history unfold in front of our eyes...
Taking a deeper look into the history & future of the USD.
The control and power that the US has had in the past is drastically dwindling... if you follow the power trial to its source it will and always has lead us back to the federal reserve.
Now the above is an issue for many different reasons... the main reason being no country or persons should be governed or controlled by a bank or reserve, which for a long time has been the case... this leading to countries having economic collapses along with huge depts placed on them in times of crisis, when this happens to a country it 90% of the time means one side is gaining while the other is losing. due to this we are and will continue to see more countries disconnect and distance themselves from the USD.
Once we get to our tipping point where the USD has truly lost its grip on the global economy it will be to late to revert from its course, which i believe will take us to lows we've not seen in decades, ultimately leading to the collapse of the USD...
Now iam no economist nor a financial expert, but I urge everyone that reads this to do your own research to the state of the USD and how the fed is "dealing" with the matter.
To sum up, iam looking for prices to drop below 100 on the DXY in the coming months and possibly even weeks...
Whatever the outcome trader stay safe and stick to your plan!

EURUSD Struggling 1.05860. Previous Key level. We can observe that price is pulling back after fed speech caused us to fall off a cliff. This was expected. A Bullish Argument would be buy Daily Support as we reject 1.05428 and NFP data tomorrow will catapult us back up to 1.0646. My bias remains bearish because of the weekly timeframe. Price has corrected 40% of the move on Tuesday. If that is a deep enough retracement or not idk. What matters for me as a trader is good RR Ideas and operating off key levels.
DOLLAR dxyLETS start to buy dollar by today.
reasons:
1.Fed testifies that unemployment rate gonna increase.
2.Fed is gonna continuing increase the interest rate.
3.Inflation still high and way far from Fed's target 2.
4.NFT came last month high rate 517K and its highest data until last year June.
5.Today we have NFP data and might be bullish dollar again and even if not I am still bullish pn dollar and
