Euro FX Futures Breach Support A rallying USD is putting ample pressure on Euro futures. Now that we’ve broken trendline support, it appears that we’re in the midst of a steeper correction. How low can the contract go? Technical Outlook : Euro futures trended higher for the duration of Q4 last year, with trendline support dating back to November first. Weakness in the USD, and favorable economic data through that period helped propel the contract higher. However, now that the USD has turned higher, we saw Euro futures breach that support line. Looking at RSI, we are still firmly entrenched in no-man's land, with RSI reading approximately 41. In other words, it would appear that we have ample selling pressure yet to materialize. If we see a continuation in strength in the USD, the concurrent weakness in the Euro could see the lows from early November tested over the course of the next 6-8 weeks.

6E 5 Minute Trade Review & Second Entry Opportunity Preview On the 15-minute, I identified a range and a HWB (Half Way Back) that had the potential to hit both the bottom of the range and the profit target. There is also a wedge that has formed. The daily is also at the bottom of a channel and triggered HWB 8 days ago. The only issue on the daily is that there is a lot of choppiness since reaching that HWB. Entered a H2 after profit takers and buyers came in strong on the 5 minute. Second entry will be at the HWB

EURO Futures (EURUSD) Weekly Outlook... BULLISH1. Daily Swing structure is bearish, after this clear break of market structure. 2. The internal structure is bullish, as price pulls back into premium. The reaction to supply is significant. It potentially indicates the end of the retracement, and price now seeking external LQ at the swing low. 3. I am monitoring the FVG above closely. Should price trade through it, it would indicate price has bearish momentum, and strengthening the idea that the pullback is over. Should this bullish PD Array hold, price could potentially make a HH, and head to the premium old high.

Will dollar strength affect market correction?If you would like to be notified whenever I post a new article, just click "FOLLOW" at the top. Also, if you would like to elaborate on a particular topic or need some advice, please comment below the article and I will be happy to help. Will dollar strength affect market correction? On Tuesday, the dollar index rose to 102 after a period of growth. Investors are in a wait-and-see mood in anticipation of the U.S. inflation data to be released this week, as it could influence Federal Reserve policy. According to the New York Fed's latest survey, consumer expectations for short-term inflation in the United States fell in December to the lowest level in three years. However, last week's economic data showed that the U.S. economy created an impressive 216,000 jobs in December, exceeding forecasts of 170,000. This shows the resilience of the labor market despite tighter financial conditions. In our analysis today we will examine the forecast for the dollar and how markets might react to its possible strength in the coming months. While many expect a weak dollar, I have a different view. The focus this week is on inflation data, which are closely monitored by the Fed. Based on the December employment and unemployment rate data, we saw an increase in jobs and wages. This makes the inflation data announced on Thursday even more relevant. I am confident that we will see a surprise in Thursday's data, and I think inflation will be down less than expected. Meanwhile, markets have lowered expectations for an interest rate cut by the Fed in March to 64 percent. Given that the probability was 90% just last week, we can conclude that the market has reduced its risk appetite. This trend has also led to an increase in demand for dollars. In the first quarter of this year, I expect the dollar to remain strong. Recent macroeconomic data are positive, and even in the event of a decline in inflation, this outcome has already been taken into account. With the dollar rising strongly, it would be unwise to invest in natural gas and opt instead for a medium-term trade in EUR/USD. Also, it is best to avoid investing in Bitcoin as the news of ETF approval has already been included in prices and seasonality during halving years is not favorable. As for the NASDAQ, which is greatly influenced by the dollar, I expect a healthy correction in the first quarter. To take full advantage of the dollar's strength, the best instrument is EUR/USD. Inflation in Europe is falling rapidly, and macroeconomic data are extremely negative. In December, inflation in the euro area reached 2.9 percent, slightly below expectations of 3 percent. The increase was mainly influenced by energy-related factors. At the same time, we saw an expected cooling of the core rate to 3.4 percent, the lowest since March last year. My bearish thesis goes against the thinking of other analysts. In my opinion, the ECB will be the first to cut interest rates rather than the Fed, which will lead to the EUR/USD exchange rate falling to 1.07 in the coming quarters. Although the technical analysis shows a positive trend, violation of the key level of 1.09 (corresponding to the EMA 100) could lead to a new bearish trend.

Euro to propel on relapsing EU inflation & US jobs dataFighting inflation is hard. Hence, central banks are data dependent while calibrating rates. Continuing geopolitical conflicts puts Europe at risk of inflation relapse. Headline numbers can be misleading. Central bankers will dig deep. Deeper analysis will compel investors and policy makers to rethink and recalibrate interest rate calculus. This paper unpacks US jobs & Euro area inflation report, and market expectations of rates ahead. UNPACKING US NON-FARM PAYROLL DATA The US labour market added 216k jobs in December 2023 surpassing expectations. It was up 25% month-on-month. Headline numbers look healthy. Details spell trouble. Payroll data was revised lower by 71k for October and November. Average work week contracted, and participation rate declined. Jobs growth is concentrated in three sectors, namely, Government, Education/healthcare, and Leisure/Hospitality. Eighty percent of the jobs added are from sectors that are not considered growth engines. Three key takeaways from jobs report: 1. Employment growth remains robust: Month-on-Month employment trends point to jobs growth in government, leisure and hospitality, health care, social assistance, and construction, while transportation and warehousing lost jobs. On a 12-month seasonally adjusted basis, apart from (a) Transportation & Warehousing and (b) Information, rest of the sectors added jobs. Source: BLS 2. Hourly Wage Earnings growth is strong: In December, average hourly earnings on private payrolls jumped by fifteen cents, or 0.4%, to USD 34.27/hour. Average hourly earnings have increased by 4.1% over the last year. Source: BLS 3. Unemployment Remains Unchanged: Unemployment rate was unchanged at 3.7% (3.5% last year this time) with number of unemployed persons unchanged at 6.3 million (5.7 million last year this time). COMPREHENDING EUROZONE INFLATION NUMBERS Euro area inflation rose 2.9% YoY in December 2023, reversing a two-year low (2.4%) observed in November. Eurostat inflation estimates was marginally below the market consensus of 3%. Inflation uptick since April 2023 was primarily due to energy-related base effects. Energy prices declined 6.7% while services inflation was flat. Core inflation, excluding food and energy prices, softened to 3.4%. Core inflation is at its lowest point since March 2022. MARKET EXPECTATIONS OF RATE CUTS Investors are betting that the US Fed and the ECB will cut rates six times this year. First rate cut is expected in March or April. Market expectations are in sharp contrast to policymakers. The US Fed expects to make three quarter-point cuts this year. The ECB has stood its ground arguing that the inflation fight is not over yet. Amid strong economic data, probability of Fed rate cuts in March has fallen from 100% to 70%. Source: CME Fedwatch Tool EUR-USD WITNESSED WILD MOVES ON INFLATION, JOBS, AND SERVICES DATA BUT SETTLED WHERE IT OPENED Last Friday news flow impacting FX rates were strong. Front month EUR-USD futures traded wildly opening at 1.0977 reaching a high of 1.1030 and then plunging to a low of 1.0908 before closing at 1.0977. December US ISM Services PMI unexpectedly fell to 50.6, the lowest reading in seven months, compared to 52.7 in November. Services industry is critical accounting for more than two-thirds of the US economy. Euro fell 0.5% last week, marking its largest weekly drop since early December breaking three consecutive weeks of strengthening. The EUR-USD is hovering at its support levels with the 50d DMA likely to print a golden cross with the 200d DMA. Near term technical signals point to strengthening of the Euro versus the US dollar. Momentum favours Euro while price reversion risk remains neutral. Diverging macroeconomic conditions leaves Eurozone exposed to higher risk of inflation relapse. The ECB is expected to be slower with rate cuts relative to the Fed. In anticipation, leveraged funds are starting to sharply reduce their net short positions in the CME EUR/USD futures. Source: CME QuikStrike HYPOTHETICAL TRADE SETUP Europe is at greater risk of inflation relapse on continuing geopolitical risks in Russia-Ukraine and the middle east. Energy and goods inflation relapse will force the ECB to defer its rate cuts. Size of the rate cuts, if any, is also likely to be smaller at the ECB relative to the Fed. This will strengthen the Euro against the USD in the near term. To harvest gains from a strengthening Euro, this paper posits a hypothetical long position in CME Micro EUR/USD Futures expiring in March 2024 (M6EH2024) with an entry at 1.0979 combined with a target at 1.1123 and hedged by a stop at 1.0871, delivering an expected reward-to-risk ratio of 1.33x. Each lot of CME Micro Euro Futures contract provides exposure to 12,500 Euros. It is quoted in USD per Euro increment. Each pip i.e., 0.0001 per Euro delivers a P&L of USD 1.25. • Entry: 1.0979 • Target: 1.1123 • Stop: 1.0871 • Profit at Target (hypothetical): USD 180 (= 0.0144; 144 pips; 144 x 1.25 = 180) • Loss at Stop (hypothetical): USD 135 (= -0.0108; -108 pips; -108 x 1.25 = -135) • Reward-to-Risk (hypothetical): 1.33x MARKET DATA CME Real-time Market Data helps identify trading set-ups and express market views better.

FX Price Action Ahead on Growing Rate DivergenceLast week was busy for major central banks. During a 60-hour window, rates were set for 60% of the global economy, from the US Fed, the ECB, to the BoE. Central banks’ announcements caused a frenzy in markets. The pivot to a dovish stance by the US Fed contrasted sharply with hawkishness from the ECB. This paper summarizes rate announcements and their market impact. It also dives into Yen dynamics as the Bank of Japan (BoJ) meets tomorrow. CAUTION FX TRADERS: GROWING RATE DIVERGENCE AHEAD Renewed divergence in monetary policies was evident from rate announcements by the major central banks. After more than a year of moving in tandem, central banks’ stances are shifting. The Fed is signaling rate cuts sooner. Meanwhile, ECB and BoE insist that rates need to stay higher for longer to fight sticky inflation. As interest rates in the US remain elevated relative to other major economies, the Fed has ample room to slash sooner. Inflation in the EU has contracted at a rapid clip relative to the US. However, economists expect EU inflation to rebound in the near term with fading base-level effects. Inflation in the US is expected to average 2.4% in 2024 compared to 2.7% in the EU and 3.75% in the UK, as per respective central banks. The US economy is strong with robust economic growth, resilient consumer spending, and solid PMI numbers. FED HAS PIVOTED TO DOVISHNESS The FOMC opted to keep rates steady with their statement pointing to the end of the rate hiking cycle. Most notable was the Fed’s updated economic projections & dot plot. It showed faster-declining inflation, slower GDP growth, and faster rate cuts. The Fed’s dot plot of rate expectations guided towards three 25 basis point (bps) cuts next year. Markets were expecting five rate cuts before the Fed announcement. Following the Fed meeting, markets now anticipate six rate cuts. BOE REMAINS HAWKISH The Bank of England opted to keep rates steady with a hawkish pause. The BoE statement indicates further rate hikes if inflationary pressures remain persistent. “The full effect of higher interest rates has yet to come through, posing ongoing challenges to households, businesses and governments," ~ BoE Market Policy Committee ECB JOINED THE BOE WITH A HAWKISH PAUSE ECB decided to keep rates steady with a hawkish pause. ECB President Christine Lagarde asserted that rate cuts were not being discussed yet and rates may even need to go higher to bring inflation under control. ECB noted that tighter financing conditions were leading to demand contraction, which weighed on pushing down inflation. Economic growth is expected to remain subdued. ECB estimates gradual ramp up in growth from 0.6% for 2023 to 0.8% for 2024, and to 1.5% for both 2025 and 2026. BOJ DECISION IS MOST UNCERTAIN WITH A THORNY JOB ON HAND The Bank of Japan (BoJ) is set to announce their rate decision on December 19th. It has maintained ultra-low interest rates all year while others hiked aggressively. Recent statements by BoJ Governor Ueda signal a pivot away from the ultra-low policy. "Managing monetary policy will become even more challenging from the end of the year and heading into next year." ~ Kazuo Ueda, Governor, Bank of Japan on 6/Dec Governor Ueda’s statements have led to market expectation of upcoming monetary tightening in Japan. JPY has strengthened 6% relative to the USD over the last month. Despite Ueda’s statements, BoJ pivot remains uncertain. Inflation in Japan is running hot and above US inflation. Moreover, wage growth and economic growth in Japan have been moderate despite high inflation creating stagflation risks. Consumer spending and wage growth remain muted despite record profits. Feeble Yen is boosting Japanese exporter profits. Nevertheless, the BoJ has been setting up a change in monetary policy. Earlier this year, it raised the cap on JGB yields and eventually changed the cap from a rigid limit to a loose reference. Some economists consider this a prelude to eventual scrapping of the YCC altogether. CENTRAL BANK DECISIONS HAVE CREATED DEEP RIPPLES ACROSS MARKETS Commodity markets reacted positively to the rate announcements. The Fed’s signal of upcoming easing opened the door for commodity demand to rise. Precious metals are likely to benefit from asset rotation out of US treasuries while Crude will benefit from higher economic activity from lower interest rates. Equities surged on Fed pivot. Small-caps and Mid-caps outperformed the Nasdaq-100 and S&P 500. Both SPX and NDX also extended gains. Bond yields fell sharply following the FOMC decision. Yields fell to their lowest level in four months. One-year bond yields performed the best while thirty-year performed the worst. LEVERAGED FUNDS ARE BULLISH EURO, STERLING, AND BEARISH YEN Asset managers and leveraged funds are net long on Euro FX futures. Asset managers and leveraged funds are net short on Yen and Pound futures but have reduced net short positioning over the past few weeks. HYPOTHETICAL TRADE SETUP The Fed’s dovish stance plus the hawkishness of European central banks will result in dollar weakness relative to Euro and Sterling. Upside risks to the dollar persist with stronger economic data and inflation resurgence forcing the Fed to reassess its stance. To gain from the weakening of the dollar against the euro and sterling, investors can buy into CME Micro FX Euro and GBP futures. A long sterling provides higher upside than long euro given higher inflation in the UK. Policy uncertainty in Japan is unlikely to usher in a pivot in the short-term. The JPY is likely to weaken against the dollar despite DXY weakness. To harness gains from weakening Yen, investors can establish a long position in CME Micro JPY Futures.
