Dollar gains as gold slumps

Posted: 10 Sep 2010 05:46 AM PDT

Dollar is gaining ground across the board, as gold slumps: in what was a quiet morning, greenback accelerated higher quite fast following gold, that lost almost 10 full bucks in the last hour; taking a look at the chart, the break of the ascendant trend line seems to signal further falls in the metal. Immediate support comes at $ 1237.80 zone, followed by $ 1.231.00. Resistances now are located at $ 1242 and $ 1246, pullback to mentioned trend line.


Best pair to trade now: AUD/USD

Canada employment data

Posted: 10 Sep 2010 04:05 AM PDT

Canada employment data come out mixed, with jobs increasing above expectations to 35.8K, yet unemployment rate also up to 8.1%. First reaction has favored CAD as USD/CAD spiked to a fresh weekly low around 1.0285; lose of 1.0260 should put the pair under renewed bearish pressure, heading towards 1.0200/10 zone. Strong resistance comes at 1.0340: above this last, a bullish movement should extend towards 1.0410 area. Charts however, are still bearish, with no signs of oversold, or reversal, so if current risk appetite mood continues, chances are to the downside in the cross. 


Starting the day

Posted: 10 Sep 2010 03:58 AM PDT

Hi everyone and welcome back! Friday is here, and market seems to be in a very good mood; stocks are quite positive, Euro and Pound holding gains and aiming higher, while USD/JPY continues attempting to regain the 84.00 level. USD/CHF broke above 1.0220, triggering stops are jumping higher, still day is too young to talk about a reversal in Swissy strong bullish trend. A daily close however, above that area, could signal further upside pressure for next week.

Aussie continues gaining ground approaching to weekly high around 0.9280, with immediate target above that level in the 0.9380 area, 100 pips above, and yearly high. Cad is waiting for its payrolls, to be release right now! Here is the link for today’s calendar, so you don’t miss it, I will update technical crosses tight after the report:
