Forex market

The euro was pinned near a 22-month low today as the war in Ukraine darkens Europe's economic outlook, while commodity currencies took a breather in their weeks-long rally. The euro attempted a bounce in Asia, after six straight sessions of selling, but at $1.0859, it was not carried terribly far from yesterday's trough of $1.0806. 

The common currency is down 4% on the dollar since Russia launched what it calls a "special military operation" in Ukraine where fighting is showing no signs of abating. It flirted with parity on the Swiss franc yesterday for the first time in seven years and traders are bracing for a bumpy ride ahead, with euro/dollar volatility gauges at their highest since the market chaos of March 2020. 

Economic Calendar

Russia-Ukraine Peace talks have made scant progress and though Germany's opposition to a ban on Russian energy imports knocked oil futures from Monday's 14-year peak, analysts expect the supply shock to persist and hurt growth. Barring a clear improvement in the geopolitical conflict, the playbook for the pair should be to sell on rallies. In this case, expect selling pressure to pick up above 1.0900. A further downside cannot be ruled out, with the European Central Bank (ECB) decision on Thursday unlikely to provide sustained relief.

The ECB meets on Thursday with the specter of stagflation prompting economists to figure that policymakers might delay rate hikes until late in the year. Sterling, which had been battered along with the euro was also parked near the 16-month low it struck yesterday, last buying $1.3121. The yen dipped slightly to 115.44 per dollar with surging oil import costs pushing Japan to its biggest current account deficit since 2014 January.

Besides commodities' parabolic rally, the conflict and subsequent Western sanctions have crushed Russian assets, with the ruble sliding to a record low of 160 to the dollar in erratic offshore trade yesterday. Commodities and exporters' currencies paused for breath today.

Yen

The Japanese Yen reversed almost all of its earlier gains. Japan recorded its largest current account deficit since the start of 2014 in January as a jump in oil import costs offset gains in investment income, with continuing uncertainty due to the Ukraine crisis and COVID-19 pandemic. Japan posted a current account deficit of 1.1887 trillion yen. Overall, the USD/JPY traded with a low of 114.63 and a high of 115.53 before closing the day around 114.83 in the U.S session.

Canadian Dollar

The Canadian Dollar drifted aimlessly despite soaring oil prices and renewed risk-aversion trading in other G-10 currencies.

The Australian Dollar edging higher again today as wild swings in oil prices made for erratic markets and analysts revised up expectations for rate hikes at home.

Gold prices today scaled the $2,000-level for the first time in a year-and-a-half

US stock markets: Geopolitical worries are clouding the outlook for U.S stocks, even as Russia’s invasion of Ukraine moderates expectations for how aggressively the Federal Reserve will tighten monetary policy in the coming months. 

Concerns over the conflict weighed on the S&P 500 on Friday, as the index pared a rally that has seen it rise 5.2% from its Feb 24 intraday low. The see-saw moves come as investor hopes that the Fed may raise rates less severely than anticipated vied with worries about inflation and higher commodity prices, stoked by sanctions against Russia, one of the world’s biggest commodity exporters. 

Investors have virtually priced out the chances of a hefty 50 basis point rate hike in March, giving a lift to the technology and growth stocks that had been pummeled in recent weeks by anticipation of harsh Fed tightening. 

Economic Calendar

The stock market has been buoyed by expectations for a less aggressive Fed and lower yields in aggregate. The threat of higher interest rates has receded somewhat.

Dow Jones Industrial Average

The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 0.53%. The best performers of the session on the Dow Jones Industrial Average were Walmart Inc., which rose 2.53% or 3.53 points to trade at 142.82 at the close. Meanwhile, UnitedHealth Group Incorporated added 2.48% or 12.06 points to end at 498.65 and Walgreens Boots Alliance Inc. was up 2.14% or 1.00 points to 47.72 in late trade. The worst performers of the session were Boeing Co, which fell 4.24% or 8.01 points to trade at 180.84 at the close. American Express Company declined 3.86% or 6.94 points to end at 172.95 and Visa Inc. Class A was down 3.35% or 6.94 points to 200.29.

Oil price - Crude Oil market, Brent Oil market

Oil prices soared to their highest since 2008 due to delays in the potential return of Iranian crude to global markets and as the United States and European allies consider banning imports of Russian oil. 

Talks to revive Iran's 2015 nuclear deal with world powers were mired in uncertainty on Sunday following Russia's demands for a U.S. guarantee that the sanctions it faces over the Ukraine conflict will not hurt its trade with Tehran. China has also raised new demands, according to sources. In response to Russia's demands, U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken said on Sunday that the sanctions imposed on Russia over its Ukraine invasion have nothing to do with a potential nuclear deal with Iran. 

Types of Forex Services

The United States and European allies, meanwhile, are exploring banning imports of Russian oil, Blinken said on Sunday, and the White House coordinated with key Congressional committees moving forward with their own ban. U.S West Texas Intermediate crude rose $10.83, or 9.4%, to $126.51.

Precious and Base Metals - Gold price, Silver price, Palladium price

Gold prices today scaled the $2,000-level for the first time in a year-and-a-half, as investors rushed to the safety of the metal in the wake of an escalating Russia-Ukraine crisis, while supply disruption fears sent palladium to an all-time high. Spot gold was up 0.9% at $1,986.83 per ounce, after scaling to its highest since Aug. 19, 2020, at $2,000.69 earlier in the day. U.S. gold futures rose 1.3% to $1,992.00.

If this was risk aversion driven by the U.S. Federal Reserve as seen ahead of this war, that wasn't something that lifted gold as that risk aversion was about rising rates, which is not an environment in which gold does well. This risk aversion, however, is geopolitical, and so there seems to be a reflective demand for non-paper assets.

Fighting stopped about 200,000 people from evacuating the besieged Ukrainian city of Mariupol for the second day in a row on Sunday, as Russian President Vladimir Putin vowed to press ahead with his invasion unless Kyiv surrendered. Holdings of the world's largest gold-backed exchange-traded fund, SPDR Gold Trust, rose 0.4% to 1,054.3 tonnes on Friday - their highest since mid-March 2021. 

Palladium was up 4.3% at $3,130.16 per ounce, after hitting an all-time high of $3,172.22 earlier in the session. Russia accounts for 40% of global production of the auto-catalyst metal, used by automakers in catalytic converters to curb emissions. We're looking at a very significant pick-up in concerns around the disruptions with Ukraine seemingly because the conflict is showing signs of broadening. Spot silver was up 0.4% at $25.76 per ounce, while platinum jumped 2% to $1,143.47.

Traditional Agricultures - Corn futures, Wheat futures

Wheat futures galloped to another 14-year high as Russia’s invasion of Ukraine increasingly fanned fears of massive disruptions to grain exports from the Black Sea region. Wheat and corn futures advanced by their daily trading limits during a volatile session, though the corn market later trimmed its gains. The week-old war has closed Ukrainian ports and prompted unprecedented Western financial sanctions against Russia, leaving crop buyers rushing to seek alternative supply sources. Russia and Ukraine account for about 29 percent of global wheat exports and 19 percent of corn exports.

Commodity currencies were swept to multi-month peaks as the war in Ukraine sent oil prices spiking

*The dollar was up on Monday morning in Asia, with the euro falling to a fresh 22-month low

*The Australian and New Zealand dollars each rose 0.9% to four-month peaks

*Sterling has also been weighted by gloom over Europe's outlook and fell to a two-month low

The euro tumbled to a fresh 22-month low on the dollar while commodity currencies were swept to multi-month peaks as the war in Ukraine sent oil prices spiking and stoked fears of a stagflationary shock that could hammer Europe.

The euro fell as much as 1% to $1.0822 in Asia trade, its lowest since May 2020. It is down more than 4% since Russia began what it calls a special military operation in Ukraine and is not far from testing its 2020 trough of $1.0636. It also fell below one Swiss franc for the first time since the Swiss quit their euro peg in 2015, hitting 0.9970.

The crisscross of pipelines from Russia through Ukraine is just indicative of how enmeshed and dependent much of Europe has become on Russian energy and that's not something you can turn around quickly. A much gloomier European growth outlook is being priced in. The euro fell on Monday to a 15-month low of 124.39 yen and touched its lowest since mid-2016 on the pound at 82.01 pence. 

Against the Aussie, the euro has lost more than 10% over about a month. Euro/dollar volatility gauges are at their highest since March 2020. Fighting in Ukraine intensified over the weekend and attempts at a ceasefire to allow civilians to evacuate from the besieged city of Mariupol seem to have so far failed.

The conflict and harsh western sanctions on Russia have sent Russian assets tumbling and prices of Russian exports such as precious metals, oil, and gas soaring at a time when the global economy was already grappling with inflationary pressures. 

All up, it's another big, ugly supply shock on top of lingering COVID impacts, with serious inflationary consequences that give central banks absolutely no room to give growth a chance. Sterling has also been weighted by gloom over Europe's outlook and fell to a two-month low of $1.3187. The South Korean won was pummeled to a 21-month trough and traders said South Korea's foreign exchange authority was buying to try and limit the decline.

Elliott waves forex trading idea for AUD/USD

Hello traders and investors. I am Radi Valov, a professional trader and today  I will present you my forex analysis for AUD /USD. In general, in recent weeks the forex market has had more volatility too. Today I want to pay special attention to this currency pair, as according to my forex analysis we are in the initial stage of a new upward cycle.

AUD/USD-Weekly Chart

The Australian and New Zealand dollars are generally perceived as risky assets and have traditionally risen during the rising phases of the stock market. However, in recent weeks the correlation between these two currency pairs and the stock markets has been much weaker and we are likely to see a new trend. 

Since my previous analysis of this forex pair, my expectations are that the correction for wave (B) or (X) has ended as a double zigzag and a new upturn phase is beginning, which in the long run will take AUD / USD to around 0.90.

AUD/USD-Daily Chart

A confirmation that we have started a new upward cycle we will have at a break of 0.7560. (peak of wave X)

After the bottom in the area of 0.6960 on a two-day chart, a triple has developed upwards, which I have designated as (a) - (c) - (c). At this stage, wave (c) may not be over yet, but my expectations here are for a slight correction to find support in the area around 0.7280-7330, after which the upward movement to continue with potential targets first 0.7560 and 0.7760.

Elliott waves forex trading idea for EUR/USD GBP/USD and AUD/USD

Until we see a breakthrough in the 0.7560 alternate scenarios with blue on the graph is still possible. In this scenario, the last Z wave should start from a current level to make a new bottom, but for now, the preferential scenario is red on the chart and we stick to it. If there is a potential development to confirm the bearish option, I will release a quick update.

Elliott waves trading idea for Copper update

Hello traders and investors. I am Radi Valov, a professional trader and today  I would like to make a quick update to my analysis for copper. The moment for this commodity is especially interesting because according to my analysis, the movement here is just beginning. (see my previous analysis for copper)

Copper-Daily Chart

After today's closing, it can be safely assumed that the symmetrical triangle I am considering for wave (4) is complete. This means that we are starting a new ascending phase for wave (5). A potential conservative target for this wave is around 550-580, but it should be borne in mind that very often the last fifth wave in commodities becomes the longest in impulse movement and ends with parabolic acceleration, which means a much larger target. A critical point for the bullish scenario at the moment is the bottom of wave E - 444. A break at this level would mean that the alternative scenario with blue on the graph is valid.

Copper-1 Hour Chart

After the bottom, which I consider for the end of wave E, a very clear impulse movement develops and I allowed myself to go down to a one-hour trading chart for all who are looking for a precise input with a very high risk/return ratio.

I expect in the coming days to see a correction of this rise marked as wave 1 on the chart. It is possible that the price will return to the area around 460-466, which would be an ideal level of support for the development of upward acceleration for wave 3.

Developments around the war in Ukraine will remain the main driver of euro price action

• Investors worried about the impact of conflict in Ukraine on the euro zone's economic prospects
• Data yesterday showed U.S. private employers hired more workers than expected in February
• The Canadian currency extended gains after the Bank of Canada on Wednesday raised interest rates

The dollar edged higher against the euro on Wednesday, as investors worried about the impact of an escalating conflict in Ukraine on the euro zone's economic prospects, while commodity-linked currencies strengthened. 

The Russian rouble extended its recent slide to hit record lows in Moscow trade as stinging Western sanctions over Moscow's invasion of Ukraine pummeled Russia's financial system. Developments around the war in Ukraine will remain the main driver of euro price action for the session.

 A continued escalation of conflict with no clear off-ramps for Russia is pulling the euro toward a test of 1.10 in the coming days. The euro was 0.3% lower against the dollar, after slipping to a fresh 21-month low of 1.1059, earlier in the session. 

Economic Calendar

We believe investors should underweight the euro area in both the currency and the equity space given its vulnerability to any further escalation. Meanwhile, the U.S. Federal Reserve will move forward with plans to raise interest rates this month to try to tame inflation, even as the outbreak of war in Ukraine has made the outlook "highly uncertain", Fed Chair Jerome Powell said on Wednesday. Judging from just his testimony... it's pretty much in line with our view that the Federal Reserve is going to hike rates at the next meeting. 

Data on Wednesday showed U.S. private employers hired more workers than expected in February and data for the prior month was revised sharply higher as the labor market recovery gathers steam. Commodity-linked currencies, including the Canadian, Australian, and New Zealand currencies were firmer as investors expect to benefit from higher commodity prices.

Overall, the EUR/USD traded with a low of 1.1140 and a high of 1.1245 before closing the day around 1.1216 in the New York session.

Yen

The Japanese Yen gained as investors worried about the impact of an escalating conflict in Ukraine, while commodity-linked currencies strengthened. Meanwhile, the U.S Federal Reserve will move forward with plans to raise interest rates this month to try to tame inflation, even as the outbreak of war in Ukraine has made the outlook highly uncertain Overall, the USD/JPY traded with a low of 114.84 and a high of 115.72 before closing the day around 114.98 in the U.S session.

British Pound

The British Pound rose against a weakening euro yesterday, with investors focusing on market bets on UK and eurozone rate hikes amid concerns about the economic impact of the war in Ukraine. The pound edged higher also versus a rising dollar while investors continued to rush into safe-haven assets. Overall, the GBP/USD traded with a low of 1.3326 and a high of 1.3430 before closing the day at 1.3416 in the New York session.

What is a Progressive Trailing Stop?

Canadian Dollar

The Canadian Dollar rose yesterday against the greenback and all the other G10 currencies, as the Bank of Canada hiked interest rates for the first time since October 2018 despite recent financial market volatility due to the crisis in Ukraine. Canada's central bank hiked its key interest rate by 25 basis points to 0.50% as expected to help fight inflation. Overall, USD/CAD traded with a low of 1.2657 and a high of 1.2807 before closing the day at 1.2672 in the New York session.

Australian Dollar

The Australian Dollar sped to a four-year high on the euro yesterday as monster gains in commodity prices looked set to shower exporters in cash, and Europe desperately sought replacements for Russian supplies. Commodities are on a tear as ever-tightening sanctions on Russia have markets fearing major shortages of everything from oil to aluminum to wheat. Overall, AUD/USD traded with a low of 0.7138 and a high of 0.7235 before closing the day at 0.7231 in the New York session.
