US500 (SP500) 4 HOUR

What caught my eye was the break of the record 7150 high yielded only 2 pips (new high 7152), indicating it ran into sellers rather than stops. So far, it has only caused a pause but bears watching given the importance of the “50” level.

To keep the focus on the high, 7089-7119 needs to hold.

Forex Market Snapshot

The dollar is trading firmer as global markets turn defensive awaiting clarity over whether/when Iran will be sending a delegation for peace talks. Given so many misleading and conflicting headlines,from various sources, traders have little choice but to turn cautious.

EURUSD, also hit by a weak ZEW. is so far holding above 1.,1750. USDJPY is back above 159 and GBPUSD has pivoted 1.35.

In Japan, consensus seems to be for the BoJ to have a hawkish hold on rates in April.

AUDUSD is underperforming while NZDUSD is overperforming (but off its high)  as a May rate hike has been put on the table following the CPI report (note weaker AUDNZD cross).
