XAUUSD-GOLD
Look only for short trades for now as long the instrument is below 1270 level. No change in view SL on short trades above the 1260 level. There is a retest of the falling trend line. We need to see a daily close below 1220 level for downside continuation. No change in view.
XAGUSD-SILVER
Silver is testing the long-term falling trend line 18-18.20 zone. Rejection from here is important from a downtrend continuation. Invalidation of the long-term downtrend only in the case of the clear daily close above 18.20. Staying aside for now.
OIL
The instrument is reaching a strong downside resistance 47-48 zone. A clear daily close below 47 is required for a downside continuation into 41-42. The instrument is bouncing from the 47 level but is below the median line of the Pitchfork channel. Staying aside for now.
NATURAL GAS
Natural gas is again in the selling zone retesting falling trend line 3.100-3.200 selling zone. Look now only for the short trade entries with SL above 3.2000. No change in view the daily close below 2.950 is required for the downside continuation.
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 458. No change in view.
COTTON
The instrument is rejected from 79 level and only short entries level are recommended with SL above 79 on this pullback. The clear daily close below 77.50 level is required for the downside reversal near-term.
COPPER
The instrument has broken below the wedge and the downside continuation is in play. SL on short entries above 275 targeting 254 and 240. The instrument is pulling back into the downside support zone 265-270 after the 100 SMA 257 level test. We have a bearish reaction but a daily close below 259 level is required for downside continuation.
Commodities rising with stock indices and we are bullish on most of them except gold, silver, and energies for now.
