Happy Sunday traders! Enough of fooling around and let's get back to the markets this upcoming week. Winter is coming!

Lets see what has and will influence the market in the short-term.

  • NZ elections were on Saturday. The Financial Times states:
    "New Zealand’s next government will be negotiated behind closed doors after an election on Saturday failed to deliver a clear mandate to any party". Link here. Uncertainty should be bearish for the currency.
  • German parliamentary elections today. Will influence EUR and DAX
  • North Korea's foreign minister calls Trump "a mentally deranged person full of megalomania" Bloomberg
  • US bombers fly near North Korea, setting up for another stock market rally ;)

And now the tech picture

DXY, the US $ index has pressure building to the upside. Looking for the weakest currency against the dollar and then short it.

EURUSD daily. We're stalling in the channel and RSI is dropping like a rock but caution with EUR pairs - German elections will influence the markets in shortterm.
eurusd daily were stalling i nthe channel no new highs and rsi is pointing lower careful german elections.PNG

EURJPY weekly. Getting interesting in the shortterm, neverthelss, dont jump in without toppish confirmation, these wedges tend to run up to a point of crazyness.

STEEMBTC. I still like the Bittrex chart of STEEM the best, because of the cleanest lines and most pronounced peaks. Call it what you will, The Tightening, The Quickening :)

Is that a little head and shoulders pattern on the EURUSD daily? If the market isn't happy with the German elections any selling could get magnified with that topping pattern in play.

So yeh, if you want something to short against the Dollar, try the Euro IMHO.

yeah ,the dreaded H&S, the most unreliable pattern ever... but also eyeing this pair . cheers!

Nice charts. I think the dollar bashing has gone on for too long and am long dollar against Yen and SGD.

NZD is interesting, hoping it drops another 200 or so pips before it becomes attractive. Let's see if National gets in.

thanks for your views @numpypython
