DXY, VIX and Agriculture are down while Cryptos, Equity Futures, US Treasuries, CNYUSD, JPYUSD, GBPUSD, EURUSD, Metals, Oil and Energy are up. White House Economic Advisor Bernstein said today that "President Biden has endorsed the Fed's policy pivot", which many readers interpreted as a sign of 75bps and a Fed pivot tomorrow; turns out he was referring to the hawkish pivot already being made this year. Interesting word choice with the FOMC rate hike announcement tomorrow and US Midterms on 11/08/22. The US Pentagon has confirmed that there are US military personnel currently in Ukraine conducting security detail at the embassy and providing logistical support for Ukrainian soldiers , but that none are on the frontlines. However, it's rumored that there's a large presence of clandestine CIA and US special forces that have been operating in Ukraine since the Russian invasion in February .

DXY Daily TA Cautiously BearishDXYUSD daily guidance is cautiously bearish. Recommended ratio: 30% DXY, 70% Cash. * China delayed publishing key economic data including retail sales, industrial production, home prices and Q3 GDP amidst Incumbent President Xi Jin Ping's expected reelection for a third term . Chinese officials say it's because of the ongoing National Congress of the Chinese Communist Party, but at the last Congress in 2017 the data was released promptly. This begs the question of how much of the delays are due to hopes of a swift economic recovery from their prolonged Covid lockdowns (and heat waves) being halted by sanctions and supply chain disruptions. Mastercard announced a partnership with Paxos today and together they will offer a program to financial institutions that will allow them to provide crypto trading to clients as well as guidance on regulatory compliance .

ADX is currently trending down at 22 as Price is beginning to fall, this is neutral at the moment. If Price is able to bounce here then it will likely aim to retest the upper trendline of the ascending channel from October 2008 at ~$114.50 as resistance which would coincide with $114.63 resistance . However, if Price continues to breakdown here, it will likely retest the 50 MA at $110 minor support . Mental Stop Loss: (one close above) $113.32.

SPX Daily TA Neutral BearishSPXUSD daily guidance is neutral with a bearish bias. Recommended ratio: 45% SPX, 55% Cash. * On Saturday, the Chinese Foreign Ministry urged Chinese citizens still living and working in Ukraine to evacuate as soon as possible . In what Russia claims to a be a response to "acts of terrorism" on Russian people after the Crimean bridge bombing, Russia has now switched to include civilian buildings as attack targets after previously only targeting military property. Russia continues to position itself in ways that it can respond to "acts of terrorism", whether they use nuclear/chemical weapons to do so is now the question. Equity Futures are currently up while DXY and US Treasuries are down which means the week could potentially start with a bounce. Key Upcoming Dates: US September Building Permits and Housing Starts at 830am EST 10/19; 19th GDPNow US Q3 GDP estimate 10/19; S&P US October Manufacturing PMI at 945am EST 10/24; US October Consumer Confidence Index at 10am EST 10/25; US September New Home Sales at 10am EST 10/26; US Q3 GDP First Estimate at 830am EST 10/27; US September PCE Price Index at 8am 10/28; FOMC Statement at 2pm EST 11/02.* Price is currently trending down at $3583 as it technically tests the weak descending trendline from July 2021 at ~$3623 as support after breaking back below $3658 minor resistance. Volume remains Moderate (high) and has favored sellers in six of the past seven sessions. Parabolic SAR flips bullish at $3766, this margin is mildly bullish at the moment. RSI is currently testing 38 support after forming a peak at the uptrend line from 01/27/22 at ~41 as resistance. Stochastic remains bullish for a second consecutive session and is currently trending up slightly at 60 after bouncing off of 48 support.

ADX continues to trend up slightly and is now beginning to form a soft peak at 32 as Price is trending back down after the rejection at $3658 minor resistance, this is neutral at the moment. If Price is able to bounce here and get back above the weak descending trendline from July 2021 at ~$3620 (as resistance) then it will have to close above $3658 minor resistance a couple of times before retesting the lower trendline of the descending channel from August 2021 at ~$3780 as resistance . However, if Price continues to trend down here, it will likely retest $3517 minor support and potentially lower to $3383 support . Mental Stop Loss: (two consecutive closes above) $3658.

SPX Daily TA Cautiously BearishSPXUSD Daily guidance is cautiously bearish. Recommended ratio: 30% SPX, 70% Cash. *Equities, Futures, Cryptos, Metals, Energy, GBPUSD, and EURUSD are all down while DXY, US Treasuries and VIX are up once again. Fears of nuclear war being exacerbated by resolute threats from Putin and desperate social media pleas by people like Elon Musk are pushing investors toward DXY and US Treasury notes and bonds and away from Risk-On assets. The US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) ordered $300m worth of Nplate (a radiation sickness drug) as part of an ongoing long term defense plan against the threat of nuclear warfare . It's hard not to think that the timing of acquiring this medication vs chemical, biological or infectious disease medication isn't coincidental; but the HHS said it was just a routine purchase as part of a longer term plan. In the short to medium term it's reasonable to expect more supply chain disruptions as a result of Russia's war with Ukraine worsening rather than improving. OPEC+ cutting oil production heading into the European winter is another factor that contributes to the seemingly inevitable decline into a global recession. Key Upcoming Dates: FOMC Minutes at 2pm EST 10/12; September US CPI at 830am EST 10/13; September US Retails Sales at 830am EST 10/14; 18th GDPNow US Q3 GDP Estimate 10/14; UofM October Consumer Sentiment Index at 10am EST 10/15.* Price is currently trending down at ~$3615 and is still technically testing both $3658 minor support + the minor descending trendline from July 2021 at ~$3635 as support, if it breaks below then the next support (minor) is at $3617. Volume is currently Moderate (high) and on track to favor sellers for a third consecutive session if it can close today's session in the red. Parabolic SAR flips bullish at $3805, this margin is mildly bullish at the moment. RSI is currently trending down slightly at 36 and is still technically testing 38 support, if it loses this level then the next support is at the uptrend line from August 2015 at ~32. Stochastic is currently bearish for the second consecutive session and is trending down at 63 as it approaches 48 support. MACD remains bullish and is currently trending down at -85 after being rejected at the uptrend line from March 2020 as resistance at ~-83; if it breaks below -87 it would be a bearish crossover. ADX is currently trending up slightly at 28 as Price is falling, this is bearish at the moment. If Price is able to bounce here at the minor descending trendline from July 2021 (~$3635) then it will have to close above $3658 minor support if it's going to retest the lower trendline of the descending channel from August 2021 at ~$3800 as resistance . However, if Price continues to breakdown here, it will likely test $3517 minor support for the first time since November 2020. Mental Stop Loss: (two consecutive closes above) $3658.

The 17th GDPNow US Q3 GDP estimate came in at 2.9% today compared to 2.7% on 10/05 . Cleveland Fed President Mester tried to warn us of rising Unemployment yesterday and it came down today instead, maybe the Federal Reserve is hiring thousands of nonfarm workers to get together and figure out how to bring down inflation. NY Fed President Williams said today that he envisions another aggressive rate hike in November (likely 75bps) and that he too sees a slowdown in job markets in 2023 accompanied by higher interest rates and lower inflation . In response to the oil production cut by OPEC+, The White House Admin tapped into the SPR yet again, bringing its total emergency oil reserves down to the lowest they've been in forty years . With midterm elections coming up in the USA, it's hard not to see this move by the White House as politically motivated. Key Upcoming Dates: FOMC Minutes at 2pm EST 10/12; September US CPI at 830am EST 10/13; September US Retails Sales at 830am EST 10/14; 18th GDPNow US Q3 GDP Estimate 10/14; UofM October Consumer Sentiment Index at 10am EST 10/15.* Price is currently testing $3658 minor support + the weak descending trendline from July 2021 at ~$3633 as support after being rejected by the lower trendline of the descending channel from August 2021 at ~$3800.

SPX Daily TA Cautiously BullishSPXUSD daily guidance is cautiously bullish. Recommended ratio: 65% SPX, 35% Cash. * S&P September US PMI came in at 52 compared to 51.5 and beating the consensus estimate of 51.8. Though marginal, September PMI increasing as DXY continues to go up and inflation remains high implies that the demand outlook improved slightly since August, which is odd considering that many central banks continue to raise key interest rates around the world. The best explanation thus far is that reopening effects are still at play. Rumors of a Russian nuclear weapons convoy and the world's largest submarine with nuclear weapon capabilities being on the move broke earlier today . Key Upcoming Dates: FOMC Member Loretta Mester speaks twice on 10/06; September US Employment Situation at 830am EST 10/07; FOMC Members Kashkari, Waller and Williams speak on 10/07; FOMC Minutes at 2pm EST 10/12; September US CPI at 830am EST 10/13; September US Retails Sales at 830am EST 10/14; UofM October Consumer Sentiment Index at 10am EST 10/15.* Price is currently continuing to test $3658 minor support for what is now the seventh consecutive session and managed to close back above it in today's session. Volume is High (low) and broke a two day streak of seller dominance by favoring buyers in today's session; Price is currently trading in the fourth largest supply/demand zone. Parabolic SAR flips bullish at $3728, this is bullish at the moment. RSI is currently testing 38.06 resistance after bouncing off the uptrend line from August 2015 at ~33 (this is bullish), if it breaks above it will likely test the uptrend line from January 2022 at ~41 as resistance. Stochastic remains bullish and is currently trending up at 32 but is still technically testing 18.22 resistance; the next resistance is at 48. MACD remains bearish and is currently trending up at -108 after forming a trough at -110, although it's still technically testing the uptrend line from March 2020 at ~-83 it would have to break above ~-91 to crossover bullish. ADX is currently beginning to form a soft peak at 31 as Price is seeing buying pressure, this is mildly bullish at the moment as it signifies a potential trend change. If Price is able to close above $3658 minor support for a second consecutive session then it will likely test the lower trendline of the descending channel from August 2021 at ~$3800 as resistance . However, if Price breaks back down below $3658 minor support , it will likely retest $3517 minor support for the first time since November 2020.

DXY Daily TA Neutral BullishDXYUSD daily guidance is neutral with a bullish bias. Recommended ratio: 60% DXY, 40% Cash. * US September PCE price index increased 0.3% from August, and Core PCE increased by 0.6% . DXY, US Treasuries, Gold, Agriculture, GBPUSD and Cryptos are up while VIX, Equities, Equity Futures, EURUSD and Energy are down. In Vladimir Putin's speech today he announced the 'formal' annexation of four regions in Ukraine , many believe this is to allow Russia to use chemical or nuclear weapons as part of Putin's promise to "... defend our land with all the powers and means at our disposal”. Putin also continued painting the narrative of the West as Satanic dictators in hopes of bolstering that perspective amongst Russia's people and allies; he also placed direct blame on the West for sabotaging the Nordstream Pipeline earlier this week. In Putin's words about the liberties and freedoms people have in the West, one can hear the Russian Orthodox directorship of Moscow's Patriarch Kirill who recently claimed that the Russian war dead have had their sins forgiven. One thing that Putin mentioned that is agreeable is that the USA is the only country to have used nuclear weapons on another country, whether Putin's Russia is the second, only time will tell. Short story long, Putin appears to be building up the necessary ingredients to officially start World War 3. Key Upcoming Dates: S&P US September Manufacturing PMI at 945am EST 10/03; September Employment Situation at 830am EST 10/07.* Price is currently trending down at ~$112 after being rejected by $114.63 resistance, the next support (minor) is at $110.02.

Stochastic remains bearish and is currently trending down at 29 as it approaches a test of 24.14 support with no signs of trough formation. MACD remains bullish and is currently trending down at 1.19 as it's still technically testing 1.24 resistance, the next support is at 0.64. ADX is currently trending down slightly at 36 as Price is seeing a downward correction, this is neutral at the moment. If Price is able to bounce here then it will likely retest the upper trendline of the channel from October 2008 at ~$114 as resistance which will likely coincide with a retest of $114.63 resistance as well. However, if Price continues to break down here, it will likely test $110 minor support . Mental Stop Loss: (one close below) $111.50.

The big volatility and volume surge today was largely due to a whopping $3.2t OpEx (options expiration) . The UofM Consumer Sentiment Index for September came in at 59.5 compared to 58.2 in August, reflecting a slightly more optimistic consumer heading into Q4. Equities, Cryptos, Futures, US 10Y Treasury, DXY and Agriculture Commodities are all down or flat while VIX, 30Y Treasury, EURUSD, Precious Metals and Oil are up.

Today's winners are once again a combination of DXY, US Treasuries and VIX. Although it was minor, CPI going up rather than down is still a blow to the "inflation has peaked" crowd and is likely to inspire the Fed to go with a 75bps (or potentially higher) FFR hike on 09/21. Key Upcoming Dates: The Merge (Ethereum) at ~11pm EST 09/14 ; US August Retail Sales at 830am EST 09/15; 12th GDPNow US Q3 US GDP estimate 09/15; UofM Consumer Sentiment Index at 10am EST 09/16; FOMC meeting 09/20-09/21 (Statement Released at 2pm EST on 09/21).* Price is currently trending down at ~$3960 as it breaks below the 50 MA at ~4k support and is on the verge of testing $3938 minor support.

DXY Daily TA Neutral BullishDXY Daily neutral with a bullish bias. Recommended ratio: 60% DXY, 40% Cash. *After briefly touching $110 minor resistance in Friday's session, the DXY will attempt to retest the next resistance between $112 (Weekly resistance) and $114 (Daily resistance). The last time the DXY tested $112 Weekly resistance was in 2000. If the Fed raises FFR by 75bps on 09/21 this will push it to 3% and may serve as a catalyst for DXY to keep surging higher. A few Fed members have openly suggested taking FFR to 4% or above by early 2023, should this happen the stage is all but set for DXY to keep going higher. Key Upcoming Dates: 10th GDPNow US Q3 GDP Estimate at 830am EST 09/07 ; 6th Beige Book at 2pm EST 09/07; August CPI at 830am EST 09/13; FOMC meeting 09/20-09/21 (Statement Released at 2pm EST on 09/21).* Price is currently retesting $110 minor resistance for the first time in 20 years. Parabolic SAR flips bearish at $108, this margin is mildly bearish. RSI is currently trending down slightly at 68 after peaking at 69, the next resistance is at 82 and the next support is at 59. Stochastic remains bullish for a second consecutive session and is currently trending up at 91, it's still technically testing 88 support. MACD remains bullish and is currently trending up at .82 but is still technically testing .65 resistance, if it can break above .65 the next resistance is at 1.24. ADX is trending up slightly at 28 as Price continue to push higher, this is bullish. If Price is able to break above $110 minor resistance then it will likely retest between $112 Weekly resistance and $114 Daily resistance for the first time since 2000. However, if Price breaks down here, it will likely retest $108 support before potentially retesting the 50 MA at ~$107 as support . Mental Stop Loss: (one close below) $108.81.

SPX Daily TA Cautiously BearishSPXUSD Daily cautiously bearish. Recommended ratio: 25% SPX, 75% Cash. *Equities, Equity Futures and Gold are all slightly down to start the week while Cryptos, VIX, Energy and US Treasuries are up and DXY has stayed relatively flat. The Risk-Off reaction to Jerome Powell's hawkish comments in Jackson Hole last Friday is continuing into the start of this week. Financial markets will likely stay choppy leading up to the Jobs Report on on September 2nd and CPI on September 13th; both of these data points will provide guidance regarding whether the Fed will increase FFR by 50bps or 75bps on September 21st. Meanwhile Europe is facing what is likely to be a cold winter marked by energy rations and high prices, this is something to keep an eye on as it has the potential to exacerbate global recession fears. Key Upcoming Dates: August Consumer Confidence Index at 10am EST 08/30 ; 9th GDPNow US Q3 GDP estimate at 10am EST 09/01; August Employment Situation 830am EST 09/02.* Price is currently trending down at ~$4050 after breaking below the uptrend line from 06/16/22 at ~$4145, it's fast approaching a retest of the 50 MA at ~$4k as support. Volume remains Moderate (high) and is on track to favor buyers in today's session, after favoring sellers in last Friday's, if it can close today's session in the green. Parabolic SAR flips bullish at $4254 minor resistance, this margin is neutral at the moment. RSI continues to trend down at 43 as it approaches a retest of the uptrend line from 01/27/22 at 38 support. Stochastic is currently neutral and trending sideways at 10, the next resistance is at 18 and the next support at max bottom. MACD remains bearish and is currently trending down at 23 with no signs of trough formation as it still technically is testing 33 support. ADX is currently beginning to form a trough at 23 as Price continues to fall, this is neutral at the moment. If Price is able to bounce here then it will likely see a bit of resistance at $4100 before it aims to retest $4175 resistance . However, if Price continues to fall here, it will likely retest the 50 MA at ~$4k psychological support and potentially lower to retest $3938 minor support . Mental Stop Loss: (two consecutive closes above) $4100.

SPX Daily TA Neutral BullishSPXUSD Daily neutral with a bullish bias. Recommended ratio: 55% SPX, 45% Cash. * The Fed Minutes confirmed preexisting knowledge that inflation is still the primary concern for the economy (making this release a low impact event) and that more downsizing of the Fed balance sheet + another 50bps is the baseline scenario for the next FOMC meeting on 09/21. Fed Staff (FOMC) agreed that 3.4% is the current peak target rate for FFR, the current range is 2.25%-2.5% implying that perhaps two 25bp rate hikes will follow September's anticipated 50bps hike to end the year. Some participants (Fed members) commented on how commodities (primarily energy and food) are likely to keep inflation up in the near term, some Participants mentioned that the policy adjustments are already seeing a substantial effect but almost all agreed that most of the effects haven't been felt yet, and most participants agreed that they support rate hikes until PCE is closer to the 2% long-run target. July US Retail Sales stayed roughly the same as in June and posted ~0% change compared to estimates of 0.1% (sales are still up 9.2% from July 2021), this surprised many analysts who expected more spending with the recent significant reduction in gas prices. Key Upcoming Dates: S&P US August PMI at 945am EST on 08/23; US Q2 Final GDP Estimate at 830am EST 08/25; US July PCE at 830am EST 08/26; UofM Final August Sentiment Survey Index at 10am EST 08/26; Jackson Hole Economic Symposium on 08/25-08/27.* Price is currently testing $4254 minor support after being rejected by the upper trendline of the descending channel from November 2021 + the 50 MA at ~$4325. Volume remains consistently Moderate and broke a three day streak of buyer dominance with a seller dominated close in today's session; this was a capitulation type of initial reaction which is indicative of a critical resistance. Parabolic SAR flips bearish at $4220, this margin is bearish. RSI is currently testing 68.42 support after forming a soft peak at 73. Stochastic is bearish and currently trending down at 87; it remains in the 'bullish autobahn zone' which is mildly bullish at the moment. MACD remains bullish but is beginning to trend sideways as it forms a soft peak just above the ATH (91.78) at 93.54; it has been bullish for 54 days now, implying that perhaps this is more than just a bear market rally. ADX is currently trending up at 31 as Price continues to push higher, this is bullish at the moment. If Price is able to bounce here at $4254 minor support then it will likely retest the upper trendline of the descending channel from November 2021 + the 50 MA at ~$4300 as resistance . However, if Price loses $4254 minor support , it will likely retest $4175 support before potentially retesting the uptrend line from 06/16 at ~$4k psychological support. Mental Stop Loss: (one close below) $4226.

SPX Daily TA Cautiously BullishSPXUSD Daily cautiously bullish. Recommended ratio: 75% SPX, 25% Cash . *The BLS reported PPI numbers this morning and they followed in the footsteps of CPI by coming in lower than the month prior, from a 1% rise in June to a -0.5% drop in July. This was a surprise because consensus estimates had PPI rising by 0.2%, such a dramatic fall can largely be attributed to the 19% decline in national average retail gas prices since last month. Year over year, PPI registered its lowest rise from the 12 months prior at 7.6% (this is the lowest it's been since October 2021). This inflation data has markets believing that inflation has peaked and July's PCE numbers due on 08/26/22 will help to clarify whether the drawdown in inflation was largely due to a big pullback in gas prices. June's PCE numbers came in higher than estimates and, all things considered, the supply chain situation has only improved nominally which brings a bit of uncertainty regarding whether or not PCE will follow in the footsteps of CPI and PPI. Key dates next week: US Housing Starts and Building Permits at 830am EST 08/16; 5th GDPNow US Q3 GDP estimate at 915am EST 08/16 ; US Retail Sales at 830am EST 08/17.* Price is currently testing $4254 minor resistance (new resistance) after breaking out above $4175 resistance and flipping it to support (two consecutive closes above $4175). Volume remains Moderate and has favored sellers in three of the past four sessions even as Price is going higher, this is mildly bearish at the moment. Parabolic SAR flips bearish at $4109, this margin is mildly bearish. RSI is currently trending down at 67 after being rejected at 68.42 resistance, the next support is at 53. Stochastic is currently crossing over bullish at 91, the next resistance is max top while the next support is at 76. MACD remains bullish for a 48th consecutive session and is currently beginning to form a soft peak at 74, the next support (minor) is at 55 and the next resistance is the ATH at 91.78. ADX is currently trending up at 25 as Price is pushing higher, this is bullish. If Price is able to break out above $4254 minor resistance then the next likely target is a retest of the upper trendline of the descending channel from November 2021 at ~$4300 as resistance (which would probably coincide with the 200 MA). However, if Price is rejected here, it will likely formally retest $4175 support . Mental Stop Loss: (two consecutive closes) below $4175.

DXY Daily TA BearishDXY Daily bearish. Recommended ratio: 5% DXY, 95% Cash . *Treasuries (excluding the 30 yr Bond) and the Dollar are correcting after a bullish summer fueled by supply chain woes and recession fears. Supply chain woes have not been remediated but there is an element of the Bullwhip Effect that should be considered and that is the excess supply that can come shortly after an abrupt slow down in demand, this could lead to deflation which would naturally (yet artificially) reduce inflation. The recessionary fears on the other hand are starting to wane with every remotely bullish economic data point that is reported, speculators are even already betting on a 50bps rate hike in September. Just today Minneapolis Fed President Neel Kashkari stated that he would like to see EOY FFR at 3.9% and 4.4% by the end of 2023, he doesn't actually have a final vote on this but it's worthy of mention considering he has been rather dovish in recent years. Both money markets and Fed members have acknowledged that the EOY target for FFR in 2022 is 3.25%-3.75% (technically 3.15%-4%), so if the current range is 2.25%-2.5% (current effective rate is 2.3%) it would require 100bps or more over the next three Fed meetings in September, November and December to get to 3.25%-3.75% EOY FFR. As of now the most likely scenarios are: September 50-75bps, November 50-75bps and December 25-50bps. More clarity will arrive at the end of this month with PCE numbers due on 08/26 and the Jackson Hole Economic Symposium on 08/25-08/27. In other news, Disney reported beats on Q3 earnings and revenue but forecasted slower subscriber growth in 2024. Key dates remaining this week: PPI report at 830am EST 08/11 .* Price was rejected by the descending trendline from 07/14/22 and is currently trending down at ~$105.20; it is still technically testing the 50 MA as support at ~$105.58. Parabolic SAR flips bullish at $106.87, this margin is mildly bullish at the moment. RSI is currently trending up slightly at 43 after bouncing at 39 and is still technically testing the uptrend line from July 2020 as support at ~45. Stochastic remains bearish for a third session and is currently testing 24 support with no signs of trough formation. MACD remains bearish and is currently testing 0 support with no signs of trough formation, if it breaks through this support then the next support is at -0.38. ADX is currently beginning to form a trough at 21 as Price continues, this is mildly bearish; if ADX can start trending up as Price continues to fall this would be bullish. If Price is able to defend support at the 50 MA (~$105.58) then it will have to break above the descending trendline from 07/14/22 at ~$105.75 in order to retest $108 resistance . However, if Price continues to break down here, it will likely retest $103 support . Mental Stop Loss: (two consecutive closes above) $105.70.
