What Affects The USD/ ZAR This Week?Since we last checked in on the South African Rand (ZAR) in June 2021, the currency was appreciating toward multi-year highs of 13.37 ZAR per US dollar, previously not seen since January 2019. In the proceeding five months, leading up to the present, the USD has staged a comeback against the South African currency and is now level with the average exchange value for the first two months of 2021. Some wild swings occurred during the revival in the USD / ZAR, with many value-overshoots forcing quick corrections. That is to say, bullish sentiment didn’t last long without a bearish retracement with this pair. For the most part, retracements have been hugging close to the Fib levels. What are the factors affecting the USD / ZAR this week? Risk sentiment will play a large part in the USD / ZAR. Last week saw traders pull away from safer currencies such as the USD, indicating a risk-on sentiment was prevalent in the market. Over last week, coinciding with the start of November, the USD depreciated by 1.427% against the ZAR, squeaking below the 15.000 precipice. There are no hugely critical economic reports due from South Africa this week. However, next week the ZAR may be under pressure after announcing the Inflation rate YoY (October). Inflation is expected to increase by .2 percentage points to 5.2%, further pulling away from the South African Reserve Bank’s midpoint inflation target of 4.5%. Next week, US economic data might be worth watching, including Inflation Rate YoY (October) on Wednesday and JOLTS Job Openings (September) on Friday. Inflation in the US is predicted to get as high as 5.8% in the October reading, up from 5.4% in September. The JOLTS Job Openings should hopefully show some sign that the tight labour market in the US is beginning to loosen.

Room for a retracement on Clicks?JSE:CLS has been on a good run lately and has continued to form new all-time highs up until the previous high on the 22nd of September. At the same time, it has been consolidating sideways mostly since mid August. With today's downwards price action, we have broken out of the bottom of the consolidation area. If this downward momentum continues, I think we could see a retracement down towards the .5 or .618 Fibonacci levels before turning again upwards to potentially form new highs. Let's see what happens.

Potential Fib Retracement on AMSJSE:AMS has been trading in a downward trend since March this year. For basically the whole month of July, it made a retracement all the way up to the 61.8 Fib level. It then went down again to form lower lows. It is currently bouncing off a very strong support level and is looking like it will make a retracement again before continuing downwards. My prediction is that it might go up to the resistance level which coincides with the 50/61.8 Fib level. Let's see what happens.

Double Bottom forming on NaspersJSE:NPN has formed what could turn into a double bottom pattern. It formed a bottom on the 23rd of August and then again on the 15th of September. If it breaks through the high formed on the 7th of September, the pattern will be confirmed and then I think we could see a move up towards the resistance level at around 300000. A long with the current move, it is also showing signs of upward momentum based on the position of the stochastic and the MACD. I will wait for confirmation before entering, though.

Double Top forming on NedbankAlthough not confirmed yet, JSE:NED seems to be forming a double top pattern. Here is the definition of a double top from investopedia: A double top is an extremely bearish technical reversal pattern that forms after an asset reaches a high price two consecutive times with a moderate decline between the two highs. It is confirmed once the asset's price falls below a support level equal to the low between the two prior highs. Although it still has quite a distance to go, if it continues down and breaks through the "neckline" I think we could see a nice downward move all the way to the support level at around 15250. I will be waiting for confirmation before entering.

BIDVEST - Upward Channel with Upward MomentumJSE:BVT has been trading in a nice upward channel since November last year. It is currently trading just below the middle of the channel and seems to be on its way up. It is also showing some good signs of upward momentum based on the stochastic, MACD and the two EMAs that are crossing based on today's price action so far. If the momentum continues, I think we could see a move up to the top of the channel which also coincides with the strong resistance level at around the 22000 level.
