Market Update 4/5 – Commodity FX Due for a Pullback

ByJamie Saettele

AUDUSD DAILY

Today’s post is extremely short as I’ve been having tech issues throughout the day.

Tuesday’s Aussie spike on ‘news’ (RBA) has top written all over it.  Price spiked into and reversed from a well-defined level (61.8% retrace of the decline from the 2021 high and former support) following RBA.  Perhaps we’ll finally get the pullback into the top side of former trendline resistance (blue line), which is near .7375 now.

3/31 – AUDUSD has been churning sideways for the last week in what I still think is a short term top.   I remain of the view that the larger trend is higher and that a pullback, probably into .7375 or so (top side of the 2021 trendline), will offer a splendid opportunity to position on the long side.

USDCAD 4 HOUR

USDCAD nailed the median line (described last week) again today and price formed a daily doji.  The combination of the doji and level (median line) is perfect for at least an interim low.  I’m looking towards 1.2620s resistance.  The intraday chart below shows an impulsive advance so trading focus is on buying a pullback.

3/30 – I still favor selling USDCAD into the underside of the broken trendline (red line).  That line is about 1.2625 now.  Maybe we finally get a bounce to do just that since price tested the median line from a new structure today.

USDOLLAR traded 12383 today, not quite reaching the proposed resistance zone. However, that may be the end of the counter trend bounce. Price reversed right at the upper parallel from a Schiff fork, the 200 period average on the 4 hour chart, and at a level that has been support and resistance since May 2019 (red line). As long as today’s high is in place, risk is lower in my opinion.

Stephen Roach, former Morgan Stanley economist and currently employed by Yale, published A Crash in the Dollar Is Coming yesterday. He may be correct but these types of articles are usually published at near term price extremes (in this case a USD low). Technically, this is the perfect spot (December low) for a bounce. Also, DXY made a slight new low today but EURUSD did not make a new high. This non-confirmation is typical at turns. Back to 98.27 or so wouldn’t be a surprise. Finally, consider the extreme short term sentiment readings (DSI readings from Monday) in front of FOMC on Wednesday. The narrative heading into FOMC is that there is no limit to the Fed’s balance sheet. What else can they say that would ‘surprise’ markets in that direction? Risk for tomorrow seems like a classic ‘sell the news’ event.

Today’s USDOLLAR low…11635. Price reversed sharply higher after low print. UUP, the USD ETF, made a high volume reversal today. The only other volume reversal on the first day of the year was in 2017, which was a high. This is only the 4th bullish reversal since inception of the ETF. The previous 3 worked. Those charts are below.

Today’s Dow move is important because price plummeted from the center line of the Schiff fork that originates at the 2009 low. In simpler terms, this line has been key support and/or resistance for years (note the highlighted areas…zoomed in chart is below). Consider the market in dangerous territory while price is beneath this center line.
