Clearly very early (pre-stock market open) currencies and other markets were inconsistent, as was the case yesterday. At the moment 10yr yield and Eur are both negative, which is not consistent. The activity across markets this week has been as if to shake off the prior week’s intensity. Quarter end results and other issues as well.
NAS100 4 HOUR CHART – Consolidating for now
As I have said, if using CFDs, pricing can vary between brokers, even for the same symbols so look at the chart pattern as it should be similar to what you are showing on your chart.’
Looking at this chart, 18,000 seems to be the level that will keep a bid under this market as long as it holds.
This is one of my trading tips posted in our blog. It is a timely one for today.
Complacency Can Be a Traders Worst Enemy
…I am not saying to stay glued to your screen but just be aware that it pays to stay on alert. Markets have a tendency to move when traders give up on the day and get lulled into complacency….

EURGBP 4 HOUR CHART – Bid but consolidating
I am posting a 4-hour chart to show the key level at.8602
Offset GBP selling out of this cross is one reason why GBPUSD failed to test 1.2674 (cited earlier) – contact me if you want a further explanation of how this works. It also gave a bid to EURUSD, which has so far been unable to test 1.0868 (cited earlier) despite demand from this cross.
See chart for support levels.

GBPUSD 4 HOUR CHART – Pre-Easter trading continues
GBPUSD remains in a retracement mode and as this chart shows key levels are not until the trendline and 1.2803
Immediate resistance is at 1.2675, an inviting but so far elusive target..
Support at 1.2632 needs to hold to keep thoughts away from 1.26.
EURUSD 1 HOUR CHART – BID IN AN OFFERED MARKET OR WHAT?
Having held a test of 1.08 EURUSD gas tested the pivotal 1.0850 level in a pre-Easter week, the bounce has tested the pivotal (more psychological than technical) level at 1.0850, also the midpoint of 1.08-1.09.
There seems little incentive to push too hard unless a solid 1.0850+ trades, which would put the key 1.0868 level in play.
Otherwise, range is to 1.0831, which was also a resistance from Friday with support seen as long as it holds..
USDJPY Update: Trend Line Break and Support Levels
The recent price action in USDJPY has seen a break below the ascending trend line on the 4-hour chart, indicating that a prolonged consolidation phase for the uptrend starting from 146.47 is currently in progress.
As long as the critical support level at 150.26 remains intact, there is potential for the upward momentum to resume, with the possibility of further advancement towards the 170.00 region following the consolidation period.
The initial support level to monitor is at 150.95. If this level is breached, it could lead to a test of the key support at 150.26. Only a decisive breakdown below this pivotal level would suggest the potential completion of the uptrend that originated from 146.47.
AUDUSD 4-HOUR CHART – Consolidation or Correction?
The market has started out in typical pre-Easter week fashion with some position adjustments dominating.
AUDUSD failure to test .6500 has seen a modest retracement that would need to take out .6577 to give it some legs.
Otherwise, expect some choppy consolidation trading while within .6599094 and .6577.
