CAD/JPY HAMMER AT TRENDLINE SUPPORT DISREGARDS GRAVESTONE DOJI, MAJOR TREND THROUGH TRENDLINE RESISTANCE

FXSHANIMEO: CAD/JPY HAMMER AT TRENDLINE SUPPORT DISREGARDS GRAVESTONE DOJI, MAJOR TREND THROUGH TRENDLINE RESISTANCE

14 January 2020, 13:20

CADJPY major trend has been sliding through downtrend line (weekly chart) and minor trend is spiking with uptrend line (refer daily chart). Bulls have tested uptrend line support with hammer and bullish engulfing patterns, consequently, bounced back above 7 & 21-DMAs with bullish crossovers in the minor trend of this pair.
Although bulls attempt to bounce back after testing trendline support, the minor trend still appears to be edgy on the overbought pressures and the failure swings were observed at the stiff channel resistance several times in the recent past. Consequently, bears bring swings back in channel.
While there is no change in our long-term outlook, the major downtrend remains intact. On a broader perspective, the major downtrend of this pair which has been in the consolidation phase since December 2015 has now been signalling weakness again upon the downtrend line formation and head & shoulder pattern (refer monthly plotting).
Head at 91.638, left shoulder at 88.922 and right shoulder at 87.851 levels. Shooting star pattern pops-up at that juncture hampers previous bullish momentum on this timeframe.
Ever since the formations of shooting star and bearish engulfing patterns at 84.120 and 82.819 levels respectively on monthly plotting, we witnessed steep slumps thereafter. Overall, the major trend seems to be weaker both momentum oscillators (RSI & Stochastic curves) and bearish EMA & MACD crossovers are in bears’ favor.
Trade tips: Well, upon above technical rationale we alter our trading perspective, at spot reference: 84.122 levels, contemplating above technical rationale, it is advisable shorting futures contracts of mid-month tenors on hedging grounds, as the underlying spot FX likely to target southwards 78 levels in the medium terms.
Writers in a futures contract are expected to maintain margins in order to open and maintain a short futures position.

CRUDE OIL’S DRIVING FORCES - WTI & BRENT TRADING AND HEDGING STRATEGIES

FXshanimeo: CRUDE OIL’S DRIVING FORCES - WTI & BRENT TRADING AND HEDGING STRATEGIES 14 January 2020, 13:39 Crude oil briefly jumped above $70/bbl (Brent) on two occasions this past week as concerns over a potential war in the Middle East, raised the spectre of widespread damage to oil supply and spare capacity. Tensions escalated following the assassination of the Iranian General Soleimani on Jan 3rd by the US, but have since then deescalated. However, the team thinks Iran will continue its affront through a low intensity strategy and expect this to involve indirect attacks in the region, although it is clear markets will need to see sizable sustained production disruptions in order to bake in longer- lasting geopolitical risk premiums. The oil price reaction will ultimately depend upon the nature of any supply disruption vs available spare capacity, global oil inventories and the sensitivity of US oil production to changes in oil prices. In the latest report on th...
