ORBEX: Risk Sentiment Up On Trade Negotiations Impasse In today’s #marketinsights video recording, I talk about #crude #oil and #gold.
WTI moved higher yesterday on a surprise #API draw, whereas gold, although would be expected to move down against oil, also moved up on the back of the latest trade negotiations impasse.
With the market's appetite shifting to rollbacks but not getting the response they want from the US, gold could move a tad higher. But technicals see the upside limited to a correction.

ORBEX: NZDUSD, USDJPY: Traders Taken By Surprise #RBNZ #TrumpIn today’s #marketinsights video recording, I talk about NZDUSD and USDJPY FX Majors
Not only markets expected with 80% chance that RBNZ will cut rates which they never got, but the central bank also said that kiwi is expected to be supported in the medium term by the low exchange and interest rates.
USDJPY on the other hand, remained somewhat muted as Trump didn't provide any insights on the trade war situation. Despite the dollar's early gains, yen managed to win back some strength following a report that the US is considering imposing tariffs on EU automakers!

ORBEX: GBPUSD,EURUSD: Brexit Party Won't Contest Conservatives!In today’s #marketinsights video recording, I talk about #GBPUSD and #EURUSD #FXMajors
#Pound surged higher yesterday following headlines that Nigel Farage, Brexit Party's leader, will not contest Conservative seats ahead of the Dec 12 elections! On the economic front, the UK was marginally away from a recession, the latest GDP figures showed. With #employment data on the spotlight, #cable is the intraday pair that traders could find opportunities on.
#EURUSD was somewhat supported by a weaker #dollar. The #greenback was seen falling on #Trump's rollback comments, as he denied having agreed on a tariff rollback with China. German #ZEW data will provide clues on #euro's direction.

ORBEX: SPX, DXY: What's Next For Indices?In today’s #marketinsights video recording, I talk about #SPX and #DXY.
SPX keeps going up, and with structural variances playing in we could see fresh highs reached in no time. Will the US-China situation and a dovish #Fed boost appetite for equities more?
The US Index, on the other hand, should be watched cautiously. Will this upside impulsive move turn out to be another correction or the real bullish deal?
