    S&P 500 Weekly Price Forecast – S&P 500 finds support underneath

    The S&P 500 fell during most of the week but turned around the show signs of life again towards the end of the week. The hammer being formed of course is a bullish sign and it shows just how much pressure is building up underneath, perhaps in a sign that we are going to explode to the upside.

    Gold Weekly Price Forecast – Gold markets continue of negativity during the week

    Gold markets fell during the week, breaking down towards the $1260 level before bouncing. However, we still have a significant amount of negativity ahead of us from what we can see, as the uptrend line being broken was a big deal. If we do get a rally from here, it could be a selling opportunity.

    S&P 500 Price Forecast – S&P 500 rallies on Friday

    The S&P 500 rallied a bit during the Friday session, gaining over 0.5% during the day. The market has found support at 2750, which of course is a large, round, psychologically significant figure.

    Crude Oil Price Forecast – crude oil markets turn bullish on Friday

    Crude oil markets rallied significantly during the trading session on Friday, accelerated by the fact that the OPEC meeting only produced a production increase of 700,000 barrels, as opposed to what people had anticipated being an increase of 1 million barrels.

    FX Empireyesterday

    GBP/USD Price Forecast – British pound rallies against US dollar

    The British pound rallied quite nicely against the US dollar during the day on Friday, breaking above the 1.3250 level. By making a fresh, new high, it is a good sign, but at this point there is a significant amount of resistance above as well. Ultimately, we have a lot of work to do if we are going to turn things around.

  • AUD/USD Price Forecast – Australian dollar rallies significantly on Friday
    FX Empireyesterday

    AUD/USD Price Forecast – Australian dollar rallies significantly on Friday

    The Australian dollar has rallied rather significantly against the US dollar during trading on Friday, slicing above the 0.74 level. Because of this, I think that we are going to continue to see some upward pressure in this market, as we have formed a “W pattern” on the hourly chart, which of course is very bullish. However, the market seems to have a bit of a ceiling above, so although I see a buying opportunity, it is probably short term.

    Natural Gas Price Prediction – Prices Slip Following Inventory Build

    Natural gas prices edged lower on Friday, following Thursday’s larger than expected build in natural gas inventories.  The EIA reported at 91 Bcf build compared to expectations that inventories would rise 85 Bcf. Warmer than normal weather is forecast to cover most of the United States for the next 8-14 days. This should buoy cooling demand. Support is seen near the upward sloping trend line near 2.90. Short term resistance is seen near the 10-day moving average at 2.95. Additional resistance is seen near the June highs at 3.05. ...

    Gold Price Prediction – Gold Consolidates After Dropping to New Range

    Gold prices consolidated after rebounded late on Thursday, as the dollar gave up some of its gains at the tail end of the week.  Stronger than expected Eurozone PMI data helped the euro gain ground paving the way for higher gold prices. Canadian CPI grew in line with expectations, notching up a robust 2.2% year over year figure. Gold prices broke down at the tail end of the second week of June, and resistance is seen near the 10-day moving average at 1,282.

    Which Analysts See Gold Prices Approaching $1,400 per Ounce?

    ABN Amro believes that there is more downside to gold prices (IAU) from the current levels, although it would be temporary. The firm sees gold prices falling to $1,250 per ounce by the end of 2018 before rallying in 2019. It believes the US dollar’s (UUP) strength could the major driver of gold’s weakness in 2018.

    Crude Oil Price Forecast – choppiness continues on Thursday as we await OPEC

    Crude oil markets continue to be very choppy during the trading session on Thursday, although a bit softer in general. The market looks likely to continue to go back and forth as we wait to see what OPEC will do about its production cuts, which obviously has a major influence on oil markets overall.

    Gold Price Forecast – Gold markets continue to show weakness on Thursday

    Gold markets continue to drift lower, as Thursday saw more selling. The market breaking below the $1275 level is of course a negative turn of events, and it means that we will probably go looking towards the $1250 level next. As I record this video, we are starting to get a bit of a bounce, but that’s probably short-term at best.

    USD/JPY Price Forecast – US dollar pulls back on Thursday

    The US dollar fell during the Thursday trading session against the Japanese yen, slicing down towards the ¥110 level again. As I record this, it looks like the market is trying to form a bit of a bounce, and the support certainly seems to be there. The ¥110 level continues to be an area of importance.

    GBP/JPY Price Forecast – British pound rallies against Japanese yen after hawkish tone

    After the Bank of England statement during the day on Thursday, the British pound rallied rather significantly against the Japanese yen, reaching towards the ¥146 level. As the market has reacted so strongly, it does suggest that perhaps we are starting to firm up again, as the statement was a bit more hawkish than previously released statements.

    EUR/USD Price Forecast – Euro rallies on Thursday after touching major support

    The Euro rallied significantly during the trading session on Thursday after initially dipping towards the 1.15 handle. That’s an area that has been important more than once, and it is a major level on the longer-term charts. Because of this, a bit of a relief rally is not much of a surprise.

    AUD/USD Price Forecast – Aussie continues to find support just below

    The Australian dollar has bounced from the vital 0.7350 level again, forming a bit of a “double bottom” on the hourly chart. The 0.7350 level is an area that is important on the longer-term charts, and at this point I think that if the market can break above the recent high at the 0.7415 level, the market could turn things around for the short term.

    Why I'm buying gold for the first time since the election

    But the setup has strengthened, and I'm buying what I like to call "the most expensive doorstop" in the world for the first time since the 2016 U.S. presidential election. The catalyst for the break in gold prices was this strength in the greenback, highlighted by the dollar's bullish "golden cross" when its 50-day moving average crossed over its 200-day moving average earlier this month.
