US30 (DJIA) DAILY (CFD): Outperforming

After outperforming yesterday with the best post-midterm day performance in 44 years, US30 is so far doing the same today. This has put it into a critical zone with 53820 and 54245 as obstacles to the record 54662 high. On this chart, needs to hold above 52949 to keep a bid pointed at key levels.

US30 (DJIA CFD) 4 HOUR

In a stronger technical position than other indices but uptrend dependent on 52415 and the 4 hour trendline holding to keep the downside in check.

US30 (DJIA) DAILY – Joining the record high party

Breakout above 53378 leaves little on top other than the round number 55K as a potential.

Expect a strong bid if trade is above 53378 with bids likely below it unless sub-52K trades.

[GVI Forex 2]

US30 (DJIA) DAILY: And the winner is?

Big winner today but still consolidating and would need to establish 52800-53000 as support to put the record 54371 high in play again.

On the downside, keeps a bid as long as support within 51-52K holds.

2026 Global Markets Scorecard

Consensus forecasts to start 2026 were calling for firmer US stocks, firmer Gold, a weaker dollar, most notably vs the JPY based on divergent monetary policies between the BoJ and the Fed, and a dollar and sharply higher Bitcoin,

Scorecard after the first full week of trading (focus in 2nd week will be on whether momentum builds further):

• US stocks (up): DJIA and US500 setting record highs while NAS100trying to play catch up.
• Gold: Closed the week at 4500, putting the record 4549 high on the radar.
• US dollar: Confounding the consensus by ending the week on a firm note.
• Bitcoin: Disappointing start after not able to sustain a breakout from its congestion range.

Test now comes in the second week where SCOTUS will issue its ruling on the legality of tariffs on Wednesday. In addition, Trump’s choice of a new Fed Chair can be announced at any time (perfect for a distraction).

USDX (US DOLLAR INDEX) DAILY CHART

[GVI Forex 2]

NAS100 (NASDAQ) UPDATE

• Still lagging behind US500 and DJIA setting new record highs and hoping to play catchup with the NAS100 record peak still intact at 26274,
• Blocking the way are 25714 and 25842.
• Keeps a bid focused on these levels as long as trade is above 25335.

NAS100 4 HOUR CHART

[GVI Forex 2]

US30 (DJIA) UPDATE

• Surge to record close, record high puts it in unchartered territory.
• Keeps a bid while above 48000 with 50000 an inviting target while above it

US30 4 HOUR CHART

[GVI Forex 2]

Trading tip: Testing strength of trend

• • The test of the strength of a trend is whether a retracement is followed by a new high (low) with the trend.
  • If not, then it gives a clue as well the other way (i.e. retracement or consolidation)
  • The same principle applies to intra-day trendS

Test of trend strength:

• • DJIA has passed with a new record high (ON CASH BUT NOT US30)
  • Jury is out on US500 and NAS100 as they rebound from the recent retracements

 

[GVI Forex 2]

NAS100 (NASDAQ) UPDATE

• Holding above 25358 to contain the downside but lagging others (SP500 back to ABOUT unchanged, DJIA up).
