XAUUSD-GOLD

The instrument has broken above 1265 level 200 SMA and is going for the test of 1287 uptrend resistance. The daily close above this level is opening the upside continuation into 1330. The upside support is 1268-1285 zone. SL on long trade entries should be below 1260. No change in view.

 

goldXAGUSD-SILVER

Silver is testing the 17.40-17.80 the strong upside zone. The bounce from this zone is required for the upside continuation. Look only for long entries for now with SL below 17.40. 

OIL

The instrument is testing the 48-49 zone again. The bounce from this zone will lead to a 53.70 consolidation triangle upper line. Staying aside for now.

NATURAL GAS

Natural gas is again retesting falling trend line 3.100-3.200 selling zone and is getting rejected from it. Look now only for the short trade entries with SL above 3.4000. No change in view the daily close below 3.200 wedge support line is required for the retest of 3.000. We have a wedge break and the test of 3.000 is in play as long as the instrument is below 3.300.

 

WHEAT

We prefer short trades for now. Rejection from 450 level and a falling trend line are confirming near-term bearish view. We have a daily close below 442 level also a 100 SMA and we could see a retest of 409 level. SL on short entries above 430. No change in view.
