Sell Gold following the deesclation in USA v Iran geopolitical tensions (for now) and for the fact that "ww3" has stopped trending. There are also technical factors to help with the confluence of signals: Gold has been sold into the 61% fib of the 2011-2016 move lower and big figure of 1600.

The uptrend neckline of this head and shoulders is now toast and the bias is obviously negative. Net USD positioning has moved into negativity territory for the first time since May 2014, which was roughly when EURUSD topped. pbs.twimg.com USD looks set to surge.
This 4h candle hasn't closed yet so we can see if the MACD will actually negatively cross, but there is a high probability that this will happen. Get short on a break of the uptrend line, to the next level which is 1.1233 where you should reassess the risk/reward.
A number of fundamental factors also feeding into the negative picture for US stocks: - QE3 ends - $BABA IPO - USD surge - China housing bubble popping - EZ deflation quagmire - Numerous wars - Ebola Disclaimer: Wait for the daily close if your not already short.
- It's deffo on the buy list but I get the feeling we can get it for cheap. - Maybe accumulate around 400
INVESTMENT GRADE VS. HIGH YIELD (JUNK) CREDIT SPREAD Bottom was around start of taper
but struggling to pop this resistance around 97.70 after a nice bounce from 92.80

- RSI oversold, but as we all know oversold can get more oversold. - Trend going back to 11/12 (Long term uptrend continues until it doesn't!). - Confluence of 50% fib and 1900. - A perfect BTFD scenario is a retest of 1900 between the 11th-14th (next week).
- The 50 DMA crossed the 200DMA. - Canadian inflation data Friday. - Could see a couple of figures on a break of any of these trends.
- Finally approaching that uptrend line from 07/12, any break and close below could lead bulls to question their positions. - There is potential for a range here from 1.3480/1.3500 - 1.3700. - RSI oversold, MACD Histogram on its way back to 0? - EZ CPI data tomorrow with any surprise being decisive for the pair.
- Resistance Into 1.85%. - A break either side of the triangle is tradeable. - The big 2.00% figure which is also the June 03 low lies ahead. - These treasury charts look awful on the monthly.
- Resistance between the 100 and 200DMA
- After failing to break above the cloud has moved lower. - Confluence of support between 09/13 high (100.60), 200DMA currently @ 100.24) and uptrend line from 06/13 (Currently rising from 100.20). - If all this is passed then I would be looking for support @ the 100.00 handle which is psychologically key for Japan. - Any convergence of the 200DMA and the 100.00...
- Since becoming support in May 2012 the 78.70 level has been solid. - You now have a H&S set up on the weekly with the 50% retrace as the neckline. - If this confluence of support is broken on the weekly chart it would be very bearish for USD. - Very possible we could bounce from this level as it will be well defended.
- If it closes above the downtrend line from June 08 you could see 1.41 quickly. - Bullish cross on the MACD would also print.
- Commodity currencies on fire....
