    Nasdaq's plunge may not just be caused by interest rate hike expectations

    The author believes that yesterday's sharp decline in Nasdaq may not only be driven by expectations of interest rate hikes, but also an early signal that the market is beginning to be more worried about future economic prospects. After the U.S. core CPI exceeded expectations, far-end interest rate expectations turned dovish, U.S. bond yields fell, copper prices also fell sharply, and credit spreads have issued warnings for several weeks. Technically, the Nasdaq fell below the main upward trend line, and we will focus on key levels such as 28,742 and 26,971 as well as catalysts such as Flash PMI, FOMC meeting and US-Iran negotiations.

    Editorial Comment

    This news suggests that the market pricing logic may shift from simply responding to inflation to accounting for slowing growth in advance. The simultaneous decline in yields and weakening copper prices is worthy of attention. For gold, if far-end interest rates fall and risk aversion resonates, it will amplify the game between its interest rate and risk aversion properties; for the foreign exchange market, it is necessary to observe the relative changes in the US dollar between growth concerns and interest rate spread expectations. The subsequent Flash PMI, FOMC meeting and US-Iran negotiations are key windows to verify this logic.

    Gold fluctuated widely after U.S. CPI, and bets on interest rate hikes in October did not heat up significantly.

    Gold once approached a new monthly low after the release of the US CPI data, and then recovered all losses; as of the data, the market's pricing for an October interest rate hike has stabilized at around 30%, which is only 9 percentage points higher than the 21% before the data. The author believes that the initial decline was an overreaction. If today's PPI and other data are less than expected, it may lead to a rebound; on the daily chart, sellers are focusing on 3,885, and buyers need to break through the trend line to look at 4,700. The 4-hour resistance is 4,228.

    Editorial Comment

    Gold first declined and then rose after the announcement of CPI, indicating that the market's expectations for an interest rate hike in October were limited, and the price's rapid recovery of losses indicated that data shocks were more digested into short-term fluctuations. If subsequent PPI data deviates from the inflation path, it may amplify gold's sensitive response to interest rate expectations; traders need to pay attention to the gains and losses of key technical levels to judge the sustainability of the market repair.

    Elev8 interprets momentum, overextension and position signals in foreign exchange and commodity markets

    Elev8 conducts momentum and position analysis on foreign exchange and commodities, judging that the US dollar index is close to an 18-month high, while the EURUSD has fallen for five consecutive weeks and hit an 18-month low. Its 14-week RSI readings are highest for USDMXN, Sugar, European Coal, TTF and NBP and lowest for EURUSD and Iron Ore. The French government's borrowing costs have risen to their highest level since the European debt crisis in 2011, coupled with uncertainty about the leadership of the European Central Bank, which are the main factors putting pressure on the euro.

    Editorial Comment

    The U.S. dollar index is close to an 18-month high while the euro hits an 18-month low against the U.S. dollar. French borrowing costs have risen to highs since the European debt crisis, coupled with uncertainty about the leadership of the European Central Bank, indicating that the euro zone risk premium is the core source of pressure in the current foreign exchange market. The RSI of energy and sugar commodities is relatively high, in contrast to low RSI products such as the euro. Traders can use RSI, three-year range deviation and CFTC position framework to observe momentum differentiation and potential reversal signals.

    Rising oil prices weigh on gold again, with market focus on U.S. CPI

    Gold is under pressure again amid rising oil prices, with the market awaiting today's U.S. CPI data. The author judges that the core month-on-month data is the key. If it rises to 0.4%, it may cause gold prices to fall due to hawkish re-pricing. If it is in line with expectations or is lower, it may lead to a short-term rebound. Technically, sellers are focusing on 3,885 and buyers are focusing on 4,228.

    Editorial Comment

    Rising oil prices have put gold under short-term pressure, and the market's focus has turned to U.S. CPI data. If the core month-on-month data deviates from expectations, it may trigger a repricing of the Federal Reserve's policy path, thereby amplifying fluctuations in gold prices and the U.S. dollar. Traders need to pay attention to the marginal changes in interest rate expectations after the data is released, as well as gold's reaction near key technical areas.

    WTI crude oil price analysis shows bullish momentum waning

    ForexLive analyst Itai Levitan pointed out in an analysis on October 14 that WTI November crude oil futures rebounded slightly after falling from about $95.41 to $94.10. The classification of buying and selling volume showed that buyers failed to promote continued price increases, and sellers dominated in the short term.

    Editorial Comment

    The long momentum of WTI crude oil has begun to weaken, and the classification of buying and selling volume shows that sellers have a short-term dominance. This may have a spillover effect on commodity currencies and overall risk sentiment related to oil prices through commodity price channels. Traders can pay attention to the long-short competition in oil prices near key support. If buyers fail to regain the initiative, the volatility of related currency pairs may increase; for gold, the potential impact of weakening oil prices on inflation expectations is also worth paying attention to.

    Gold rebounds after finding bids at 100 hourly and 200 hourly moving averages

    Gold rebounded after finding bids near the 100 hourly moving average of $4,157.82 and the 200 hourly moving average of $4,157.78, and is currently trading around $4,184. The key resistance above is the $4,223.51–$4,237.55 swing zone, and the 100-day moving average above $4,252.80; after breaking through and holding firm, the target is the 50% retracement level of $4,318.18. If it is blocked and falls back in this range, the current rebound will still be a restoration of a larger downward trend since the high point in late August.

    Editorial Comment

    Gold received buying orders near the hourly moving average, and the short-term long-short tug-of-war intensified. The upper swing zone and the 100-day moving average constitute a key observation window. If it cannot be broken through, the rebound may only be a repair in the downward trend, rather than a trend reversal. Traders can look to price action near these technical levels to gauge the pace of long-short transitions.

    Oil price fluctuations drive gold trends, focus on U.S. CPI

    Gold is under pressure due to rising oil prices, and the market is paying attention to the impact of the U.S. CPI report on the probability of the Federal Reserve raising interest rates. On the daily chart, sellers will be positioned near the downward trend line, with a target of 3,885; buyers need to break through 4,228 to open up room for a rebound to 4,400. The US CPI will be released tomorrow, and there will be data on PPI, retail sales and initial jobless claims on Thursday.

    Editorial Comment

    Rising oil prices have put gold under short-term pressure, and the upcoming U.S. CPI may change the market's pricing of the probability of the Federal Reserve raising interest rates, becoming a key variable affecting the trends of gold and the U.S. dollar. On the technical front, the battle between bulls and bears near key support and resistance, as well as changes in volatility before and after the data are released, deserve traders' close attention.

    Today's chart: EUR/CHF rebounded this week, but French and German bond spreads warned that euro risks have not disappeared

    EUR/CHF has rebounded this week around 0.9300, but euro risks have not yet lifted. The French-German bond yield spread remains around 141 bps, close to the recent high of 150 bps, as French fiscal concerns persist. Follow-up attention will be paid to U.S. CPI tomorrow, as warm readings may push U.S. bond yields higher and once again be positive for the Swiss franc.

    Editorial Comment

    The rebound of EUR/CHF coexists with the high interest rate spread between France and Germany, indicating that the short-term repair of the euro against the Swiss franc has not eliminated the structural pressure of French fiscal risks. Traders should pay attention to whether interest rate spreads are moving closer to 150bps again, and the potential transmission of U.S. CPI data to U.S. bond yields and Swiss franc safe-haven demand.
