Dow Jones to retest the sellers [Video]

The US30 is trading in the green at 37,570 at the time of writing and it seems determined to reach and retest the immediate upside obstacles before going down again. After the last sell-off, a rebound was somehow expected. The index turned to the downside as the Dollar Index looks overbought after the US JOLTS Job Openings and ISM Manufacturing Prices came in worse than expected. Later, the FOMC Meeting Minutes should bring sharp movements.

From the technical point of view, the US30 escaped from a Rising Wedge pattern signaling a sell-off. Now, it’s trapped between the upper median line (uml) and the sliding line (sl). As long as it stays within the pitchfork’s body, the rate could extend its correction. Testing and retesting the upper median line (uml) and making only false breakouts should bring a new leg down.

EUR/USD faces next resistance near 1.1930

EUR/USD continues to build on its recovery in the latter part of Wednesday’s session, with upside momentum accelerating as the pair retargets the key 1.1900 barrier amid a further loss of traction in the US Dollar. Attention now shifts squarely to the US data docket, with labour market figures and the always influential CPI releases due on Thursday and Friday, respectively.

GBP/USD sticks to the bullish tone near 1.3660

GBP/USD maintains its solid performance on Wednesday, hovering around the 1.3660 zone as the Greenback surrenders its post-NFP bounce. Cable, in the meantime, should now shift its attention to key UK data due on Thursday, including preliminary GDP gauges.

Gold holds on to higher ground ahead of the next catalyst

Gold keeps the bid tone well in place on Wednesday, retargeting the $5,100 zone per troy ounce on the back of modest losses in the US Dollar and despite firm US Treasury yields across the curve. Moving forward, the yellow metal’s next test will come from the release of US CPI figures on Friday.
