Weekly Market recap 6: volatility may take off very soonI believe the first breakout impulse of a new trend in the major assets can start during the next week.
DXY broke out the long-term trendline and held above, closing at the border of the current sideways channel at 94.00 (even a little above it). If on Monday DXY closes confidently above 94.00, I'll be surely bullish on USD and JPY as that may signal the beginning of the new wave of risk aversion sentiment. If instead DXY forms a rejection candle signal, the reversal back into the range is likely.
The major asset classes came to significant price levels
1)Brent broke the important support at 39.00, confirming the short-term uptrend (started at the end of April) reversal according to the trend structure.
2)Although S&P500 hasn't broken September low yet, it's consolidating under MA(100), that adds to my bearish bias on stocks.
3)Gold is also testing its major support level.
Possible scenarios
Whatever asset you look at, the full-body candle in either direction will tell us a lot at this point. We either enter into a volatile trending market (in case of DXY being above 94.00) or a possible short-term trend of medium volatility in the opposite direction.
The market may be pricing in the upcoming United States Presidential election on November 3. The election result can be a catalyst for a new trend across the board.
Outlook
AUDUSD Wick rejections could be a sign for a buy?Can price finally find support around 0.7160? Though this pair is in a global uptrend, it is important to note that its current behavior and direction has been to the downside since the start of this trading week as is evident in the making of lower highs and lower lows. Needless to say, traders with a bullish bias has been waiting for price to find support at various areas along this week's downtrend path to get in on a buy but clearly, sellers are not done flexing their muscles yet as they have managed to push price lower and lower. Multiple wick rejections around the 0.7160 area could signify that much needed support for buyers to take control of the direction of this pair and bring back a continuation to the up side. Considering that price has respected key area between 0.7207 and 0.7193 as resistance several times in recent history, a global trend reversal could be cooking but this is not an exact confirmation yet.

GBPJPY OUTLOOKGBPJPY OUTLOOK: Price has struggled in the past week to move much higher. Previous highs have been broken however consolidation has taken place after bad news for the GBP and JPY. The end of the week saw price fall back down to the strong uptrend line and we will soon see whether price breaks below the line and reverses or once again bounces and moves higher towards the long term downtrend price arond 142.00
EURUSD OUTLOOKEURUSD OUTLOOK: Price is in a longer term uptrend, a smaller flag pattern has formed which price has attempted and failed to break out of. A clear confirmation of a solid breakout will tell which way price will continue from here. USD has been very weak and if we see its strength return then we can see the EURUSD move much further to the downside.
Weekly Market recap 1Ok, boring first, as I suspected it would be quite a calm week for USD as it ought to digest its previous downtrend move. The USD has been staying in the range without any hints of what direction the breakout would occur in. So let's wait and see what happens the upcoming week. If there are some decisive moves towards the range boundaries, we can devise a plan accordingly. I would be more prone to consider shorting USD in general, towards the previous trend.
Gold has finally made a decent correction after the surge to the new all-time highs. Notice, that the level 1900, which is the high of September 2011, now became the mirror support. That's a good sign of the healthy bullish trend. This week it'd be nice to look for some bullish reversal setups based on the rebound from 1900 level and trend continuation setups afterwards. I'm not much into fundamentals, although I find a solid reason to stay long on Gold in the mid-long term as the interest rates will most likely remain very low for a while, and printing money continues in the US and Europe.
Now, let's look at something more dynamic. My main focus in the upcoming week would be on the strength of the European currencies (EUR, CHF and GBP). Their indexes are all in a strong uptrend with some minor divergencies. The kicker here is to timely decipher which currency of the three has the most obvious relative strength. First of all, I chose not to display GBPCHF, as to me that's a symmetrical triangle formed in a multi-year range, - fairly neutral condition to have a bias in any direction.
EURCHF has drawn my attention since the middle of May 2020, as it started to show aggressive signs of the long-term downtrend reversal. Although the pair seems to tighten to 1.0740, gradually, I see this pair going up in the mid-term . Therefore I'm long EUR here overall.
EURGBP is consolidating near the upper band of the local range around 0.9050. That recent price action tells me EUR might be stronger at least in the short-term .
And here is the highlight - AUDNZD . The pair has broken the long-term trendline started in October 2017, and confidently advances further. Australia, as the second Gold producing country in the world, should correlate with the price of Gold somehow. We can see a positive correlation of the AUDNZD with Gold since the middle of July. Last week Gold has corrected the strong upside move, but AUDNZD remained strong. That tells about the relative strength of AUD . I'll be looking for the trend continuations setups in AUDNZD in particular as NZD seems weak against European currencies too.
That's it for now. I'd be curious to know your opinions about other fundamentals that drive the discussed currencies:)
My Setups for Week of 7/26DXY is still falling like it can't get back up so I am still short on USDXXX pairs and long on XXXUSD. I would like to see pull backs on the 4H but it is looking like 1H pullbacks are all we are getting this week if the DXY continues it's momentum. First week of FTMO challenge. Wish me luck!
US500. Long-term outlook. Bullish.There is a strong level at 3200 which was a resistance level in the past, and now it's a support level. At this point, the economy of the US looks much better then any other coountry in a world. That's the reason that makes S&P index looking bullish in a longterm. Therefore, it's a good level to open long positions with take at around 3330. Of cource, the the ascent will not be easy, but we'll see it in anyway!)
Good Luck!
Do not forget about Stop Losses!!!
GBPUSD OutlookThe beginning of July hasn't been a good one for the dollar as Covid-19 cases spiked around the US causing the dollar to weaken. Approaching 1.26600 prices has met resistance and has been stuck in a range for about a week. We see price making lower highs and lower lows and as Covid-19 fears begin to wane and the DXY showing bullish potential, I am looking for this pair to breakout and drop to 1.22650 Support zone.

Investors are still in the "Buy the dip" mentality after the major recovery from the bottom mad in March this year, and confirmations made by the Fed announcing on Monday that it will start buying individual corporate bonds through its Secondary Market Corporate Credit Facility.
AlphOverBeta Next Week Forecast
We predict the market is going to continue to be high volatility range trading in the coming days and weeks, the economy is not going well enough to sustain a major rally, BUT the fed and government is going to continue to pump liquidity into the markets and that alone that should support the current price levels. The market traders are not clear on the next market move as they were in previous weeks and this creates elevated levels of volatility.
We see the next key level as 3000, and then 2800.

Trump said the U.S. will remove special treatment for Hong Kong, will review practices of companies from China on U.S. financial exchanges, and will terminate its relationship with the HWO (World Health Organization), as he is trying to maneuver domestic riots from home.
AlphOverBeta Next Week Forecast
We have chartered a number of bands for the S&P500, these bands are used for risk control and decision making.
295-310 - This is the best scenario we have for the rest of 2020. This bullish range holds as long as the price is above 295
280-295 - is the current locked trading range, when prices went above 295, it triggered a bullish signal in our systems.
265-280 is the bearish zone.
