Since its slow:
Just a note – The 6month yield is essentially flat at 5.06% and the 10yr is essentially flat at 3.51 on the yield curves. The only ones with a positive curve are the 15yr, the 20 yr, and the 30yr if I am reading the numbers correctly. I would love to hear from some of the viewers out there who never comment about what they think of that.
USDCHF 5-MINUTE CHART – CHOICE OF TIME FRAMES

I like to look at whatever time frame chart is tracking a market the best, especially when there is a trend.
Today I have found using 5-minute AT charts to identify changes in direction in what has been a range day since I came in
So here is one for you JP, which indicates a potential directional shift with the target at ..9088.
Reminder this is a 5 minute chart and directional shift patterns are better seen on 15 and 30-minute charts. but 5 minute has been working today.

XAUUSD 5 MINUTE CHART – MID RANGE?

I was just asked if XAUUSD was a sell. First, I do not trade it so I can only speak from what I see on charts.
‘
If you scroLL down to my post on XAUUSD, I cited the range at 2300-2332. ‘
So ask yourself whether you want to sell mid-range with the low likely in for the day unless it is just a scalp short against the blue AT lines. ..
AUDUSD 5 MINUTE CHART – AT LADDER PATTERN

AUDUSD bouncing off its low as commodity currencies get a lift.
I am using this 5-minute chart to show how The Amazing Trader works with all instruments in all time frames.
We prefer using 15 or 30-minute charts for directional indicator patterns but in a quiet day like today, the 5-minute gave an early sign of a potential change in direction (as long as the low stayed intact).
Note the rising red lines are called an AT Ladder pattern.
DLRx 105.40
right on Resistance
puppy seems to be trading selectively amongst its components but as a whole instrument currently has little steam in the vatt to push it higher.
altho the grander scheme of things it is the euro that will – when it happens – see a cut first . In the meantime it ll probably need see a move up in yields to get some live.

XAUUSD 1 HOUR CHART – OFFERED OR OFFERED IN A BID MARKET]

One hour chart showing a downside risk but failure to test 2300, which guards key levels at 2291 and 2277, raises the question of whether XAUUSD is offered or just a case of trading offered in a bid market.
The jury is out on this while it trades between 2300-32.
THIS IS A GOOD TEST FOR ANY DAY TRADER.
LOOK AT THEÂ EURUSD AND SEE HOW YOUR EMOTIONAL BIAS CHANGES WHEN IT IS TRADING ABOVE AND BELOW THE 50 LEVEL (1.0750).

MY FAVORITE TRADING SECRET: THE POWER OF THE “50” LEVEL

In the bigger picture AudUsd has just begun a sell side bias and is nowhere close to my parameters for finishing. That does not mean a bounce around current levels. I’m on the sell side until 6600 is firmly compromised including on an intra-day basis, were patience simply applies during any bid bias occurring. I don’t like calling tops and bottoms. I’ve seen it empty the accounts of many, many would be and professional traders alike.
What matters is that you don’t miss.
EURUSD 4H
Yesterday , as expected support at 1.07500 held it’s grounds and we hit 1.07900 (almost –yeah well , can’t predict it in a pip J .
Overnight the support at 1.07500 was penetrated and now the pressure is on the downside .
Resistance at 1.07550, and Support at 1.07350 .
Next Support comes at 1.07150 – break of would open a space for a larger down wave to 1.06750 at least.

USDX 4 HOUR CHART – RETRACING BUT BELOW RESISTANCE

USDX has retraced from its post-jobs report low set last Friday as the USD recovers. However, if EURUSD were leading rather than lagging the USDX would be higher (EURUSD IS 57.6% OF THE INDEX).
The key level is 106.00, with support at 105.09, suggesting the current range is 105-106 for now but only a break of 106.00 would negate the technical risk on the downside.
AUDUSD 4 HOUR CHART – Make or break level

AUDUSD performing technically, with the 2 blue AT LINES POINTING TO A CHANGE IN DIRECTIONAL RISK THAT HAS SEEN A TEST OF THE KEY .6565 LEVEL (CITED HERE YESTERDAY).
This puts AUDUSD at a crossroads as .6565 is a make or break level. If it holds, then expect a bounce. If it is broken, then look for a test of the trendline or lower.
So far, it has held the first test of this level.
