EURUSD Probabilities Of RetracementIt can be a retracement finally after a long swing upward couple of days past due to the US under pressure from Covid-19. This might be changing positively slowly as the representative of the state is focusing on the comeback against the pandemic and they have already run much stimulus program for their economy prevention. Can't say it may be fully reversal but there could be some side effect on the currency after they have taken some control over the outbreak which may temporarily change the market sentiment.
Unitedstates
USD vs. CAD (NEW PATTERN)The USD price appreciation building up in the USDCAD pair has not yet unfolded, but when it does it will be a nice long USD trade (or short the CAD trade). Previously we identified a bullish flag on the weekly and monthly chart, but it looks like the flag is shaped a bit differently now that 2019 is behind us. Here are the new technical levels to watch. At the moment price seems to be transitioning from one trap zone to the next trap zone, but the battle lines are now clearly drawn. There will likely be some nice bullish action in this pair by the end of 2020, so don't forget to bookmark it!
GOLD Forecast Making Bullish FlagAfter a long rally and reject our Weekly SBR Zone at 1554, gold making correction and as i can see maybe formation of bullish flag on H4 timeframe. Long projection still buy but my target buy at support 1400.8 area. As for now i focus on sell first unless they break my resistance trendline then i will focus on buy.
Pricing in Aussi/Greenback retracement!! Small swing setup.Expectations are for the RBA to hold on to any further rate cuts, for now, so the big action is likely to come only if there is a surprise rate cut from the current overnight interest rate of 0.75 percent. After the RBA event, AUD / USD may fall into a "buy-the-rumor, sell-the-news" situation as an interest-rate holding might have been pre-priced. Negative geopolitical headlines (e.g. negativity of trade between the United States and China) may help this retracement to form which should be taken care throughout the weak. TP: 38.20% Fibo Retracement.

In Soviet Russia, Money Buys YOU! - (USDRUB)Hello Traders!
The Ruble has been in a steady uptrend for a while now.
It's no secret that Russian debt, lowest of developed nations (Roughly $200B) is so low now that Russia claims to have enough cash on hand to cover their debts completely. After the last Russian economic crisis, policies under Putin have sought to eliminate debt and generate faith in the economy.
I believe strong fundamentals combined with positive technicals create here a wonderful long opportunity! We can start layering in immediately. Even TD9 shows an imminent buy opportunity.
Be careful of manipulation!
Stay safe and good luck traders.

FX News: Dollar Steady as Jackson Hole LoomsFX News – After some cautious trading on Wednesday, the dollar is now hovering near three-week highs. Focus still remains on the Jackson Hole meeting this coming weekend.
The Federal Reserve slashed rates last month, the first time since 2008. According to Fed Chairman Jerome Powell, the move was a “mid-cycle adjustment.”
Forex markets are betting on further rate cuts before the year ends. The expectations lie on heightened trade tensions and sluggish global economic growth.
The US dollar index is near 98.17 as it gained 0.12% in the previous session. Last Tuesday, the greenback reached 98.33, which was its highest since August 1.
According to market analysts, US President Donald Trump has a “strong desire” for deep cuts. This could raise traders’ hopes for strong easing signals at Jackson Hole.
Deep Cuts in Jackson Hole?
Over the weekend, major central bankers are going to meet in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, including Powell.
FX news and market participants will focus on the information they can glean from the Fed commentary in Wyoming. The meeting comes after weeks of limited public appearances.
The speech that Powell will make would be the first public comments since slashing interest rates last month.
This year, the theme is “challenges for monetary policy.”
Forex markets would wait for the Fed Chairman to address short-term challenge of whether or not the Fed needs deep rate cuts.
Such rate cuts could serve to counter the unpleasant effects of the trade war and global risks.
Meanwhile, G7 leaders will also hold their own meeting over the weekend and on Monday. This includes President Donald Trump, and it will happen in French resort Biarritz.
Both Jackson Hole and Biarritz meetings will focus on global outlook that suffers from the aggressive trade war.
Argentina Financial Crisis Fears ArisesFears once again loomed all over Argentina in a financial crisis rushing to the fore. And over the weekend, President Mauricio Macri had a stunning rout in the primary elections. At the same time, investors dropped its bonds, stocks, and currency en masse in a selloff. And it left Wall Street thinking that the crisis-prone country will have another default.
In addition to that, the upset is widely seen as a preview of the presidential vote in October. And it suddenly opens the doors to the possibility of a more protectionist government will take power come December. Also, it might untangle the hard-won gains that Macri build-up to retrieve international markets’ trust.
Then, it intensified worries Alberto Fernandez, his populist rival, and Cristina Fernandez, his running mate, will attempt to renegotiate its debts and agreements with the International Monetary Fund. In the coming year, the foreign-currency billion debt is due.
Edwin Gutierrez is the head of emerging-market sovereign debt at Aberdeen Asset Management. And he stated, “The market is starting to price in default” and it “is unwilling to give Fernandez the benefit of the doubt.”
Debt Payments of Argentina
Meanwhile, looking at the credit-default swaps, it suggests that traders are expecting a 75% likelihood that Argentina will suspend its debt payments for about five years. Last Friday, this chance was only about 49%.
Then, its dollar-denominated government bonds wiped out about 25% on average. As a result, it dragged down prices to as low as 55 cents on the dollar. Yields, on the other hand, on shorter-maturity notes surged above 35%.
Moreover, in Argentina, the peso tumbled as high as 25%, hitting a new record-low 60 per dollar on Monday. Also, the Merval stock index had the most lost in the intraday trading.
On Sunday, Macri expected to trail his rival by just a few points and pummeled the polls, with Fernandez in a 15-point lead.
DXY looking to continue south to 94??To whoever sees this..
Always watching the dollar. IMO it is in charge! Up or down I don't place a trade on a correlated pair without having an idea of where the dollar is and could be potentially heading. A few scenarios i see playing out all to the short side. Going into Monday I think we will see is slowly trickle upwards Not sure when or even if we will see a half decent retracement from last weeks slight melt but the two zones marked are where I will be watching closely for a continuation to the downside. 97.75 may be to aggressive but depsnds on where we open at. If not 98-98.50ish is the area im watching. Break of that and you can scratch all of this. You already see the targets. Not crazy. 95 is my more conservative target but 94 is ultimately where i see this heading. Thoughts? Think were going long still? Please share your thoughts!

Peak Resorts soars up 112.75% !!Peak Resorts, a company responsible for operating ski resorts in the Midwest, Mid-Atlantic, Northeast, United States soars up by 112.75%. This sudden rise has been caused from a company called Vali Resorts NYSE:MTN , in which will acquire Peak Resorts for $11.00 a share.
Peak Resorts is currently trading at 10.85 from the time this has published and is speculated to reach up to 11.00. Therefore this is a perfect opportunity to buy long.
It is assumed that all shareholders are happy with the decision. Peak Resorts in comparison to Vali Resorts is far larger and has gained larger revenue within the same similar time period that both companies began, in 1997.
USDUAH | Still on WatchlistThe hryvnia (UAH) continues to trade sideways while in consolidation in the "no trade zone." Recently, the currency strengthened against the dollar (USD) and initially it looked like an opportunity to go long on the USD. However, the weekly EMA50 (which historically has provided support for the USD) turned into resistance, broke the 3 year trendline, and now we are heading toward the 61.8 Fibo. Above the 61.8 Fibo the USD is still bullish. Below the 61.8 Fibo we have a bit more neutrality with support close at the weekly EMA200 (good place to hedge UAH and/or go long USD).
USD at strong support level against the CADThe USD is currently sitting at a very strong support level against the CAD. EMA50 is also above EMA200 on the daily and weekly. Keep in mind that, technically, the pair is in a "no trade zone."
The Canadian economy is also experiencing a number of acute deteriorations vs. the US economy that could put pressure on bank balance sheets in Canada. Increasing non-performing loans in Canada could lead to currency devaluation. The Bank of Canada's inflation targeting also revolves, at least partially, around currency devaluation (a kind of "beggar thy neighbour").
Panic if SPX500 Does not Bust Through Record HighsNot a perfect pattern, but few are. If the SPX500 does not reach record highs and does not go beyond those record highs with strong conviction, then it will suffer from the exact same chart pattern DJI did right before the 2008 Financial Crisis. If price action starts to move down then we would be witnessing a large head and shoulders pattern right into a financial crash or at the very least a large correction. We already know a recession is coming sometime in the upcoming year, but the question is when. However, that does not mean I am saying this pattern will form. I'm just saying its possible. And if it starts to form, be very very careful.
Also by the way, volume is super f word low right now probably indicating most traders are skeptical as to why they should buy at such high levels. It is the second lowest level of volume since 2006 with the lowest level of volume since 2006 only occurring last year. Big red flag guys and gals. Too expensive for many. Expect institutional traders to attempt to unload their positions that they too believe are probably too expensive.
