US market outlook
Emini S&P December futures breaks important support at 4220/4200 tumbling to my target of 4130/20 with a low for the day exactly here. A break below 4110 is the next sell signal for 4070/65, probably as far as 4020/10.
Minor resistance at 4170/80 with strong resistance at 4205/15. Shorts need stops above 4225.
Nasdaq December futures crashed below support at 14590/530 for an important sell signal targeting 14430 & 14280/250 before a low for the day only 40 ticks from the next target of 14100/14000. This is also a strong support level so if tested today, (after Friday's inside day) there is a good chance of a low but longs need stops below 13950.
First resistance at 14450/550. Shorts need stops above 14600.
Emini Dow Jones December broke the October low at 33070/020 for a sell signal & we then hit my targets of 32750/700 & 32450/400 with a low for the week exactly here. Nice quick profits if you managed to short.
A bounce from 32450/400 is not out of the question but longs look too risky to me. If we do recover look for resistance at 32800/830 then a sell opportunity 33000/33100. Shorts need stops above 33200.
However if we break below 32380 (as I think is likely) look for 32150/100 & even 31830/800.

EUR/USD extends recovery beyond 1.0400 amid Wall Street's turnaround
EUR/USD extends its recovery beyond 1.0400, helped by the better performance of Wall Street and softer-than-anticipated United States PCE inflation. Profit-taking ahead of the winter holidays also takes its toll.
GBP/USD nears 1.2600 on renewed USD weakness
GBP/USD extends its rebound from multi-month lows and approaches 1.2600. The US Dollar stays on the back foot after softer-than-expected PCE inflation data, helping the pair edge higher. Nevertheless, GBP/USD remains on track to end the week in negative territory.
Gold rises above $2,620 as US yields edge lower
Gold extends its daily rebound and trades above $2,620 on Friday. The benchmark 10-year US Treasury bond yield declines toward 4.5% following the PCE inflation data for November, helping XAU/USD stretch higher in the American session.
Bitcoin crashes to $96,000, altcoins bleed: Top trades for sidelined buyers
Bitcoin (BTC) slipped under the $100,000 milestone and touched the $96,000 level briefly on Friday, a sharp decline that has also hit hard prices of other altcoins and particularly meme coins.
Bank of England stays on hold, but a dovish front is building
Bank of England rates were maintained at 4.75% today, in line with expectations. However, the 6-3 vote split sent a moderately dovish signal to markets, prompting some dovish repricing and a weaker pound. We remain more dovish than market pricing for 2025.
