Market Overview

The Federal Reserve cut interest rates by 25 basis points as expected. Because the market had already fully priced in this move, the announcement itself was largely uneventful, leading to some counter-intuitive "sell the fact" price action across various assets.

Market Analysis

GOLD

Gold prices retreated from their all-time high after the rate cut was announced. This was an underwhelming result for Gold, as the rate cut had already been priced in by the market over the past week. While the overall price structure remains bullish, the technical picture is mixed, with the MACD showing bullish volume but the RSI indicating a bearish sentiment after coming off overbought levels. We expect to see more buying emerge but will wait for a clear continuation signal.

SILVER

Silver is showing increased selling momentum, with both the MACD and the RSI reflecting this growth in bearish movement. We anticipate increased selling in the coming days.

DXY

The Dollar is still bearish overall but found some recovery from its recent nosedive after the rate cut came in as expected. This "buy the fact" reaction was anticipated as the bearish move had already happened in the preceding weeks. We expect the current retracement to be temporary and will look for a continuation of the sell-off. For the time being, we are targeting the EMA200 as a key resistance level for this recovery.

GBPUSD

The Pound pulled back from its high and failed to sustain its bullish rise following the news. This price action has shifted the short-term bias to neutral. We will now wait for a clearer signal before making a directional call.

AUDUSD

The Aussie is experiencing a bearish pullback, but the overall price structure remains bullish. We will view this as a potential "buy the dip" opportunity as the price tests the EMA200 for support. For the time being, we will hold off on a specific directional call.

NZDUSD

The Kiwi is showing increased bearish movement and a potential full switch to an overall selling structure. The MACD and RSI both indicate strong bearish momentum. With this, we will expect to see more selling, especially if the price remains at its current levels.

EURUSD

The Euro is still consolidated but is showing signs of a potential bearish continuation. The MACD and the RSI are both indicating increased selling volume and momentum. We anticipate further selling in the coming days.

USDJPY

A bearish continuation for the pair failed to materialize, and the price action has reverted to a consolidation phase. We will continue to wait for a definitive market move before taking a position.

USDCHF

The pair is finding increased bearish momentum and volume, a view supported by both the MACD and the RSI. The overall price structure is very bearish, and we will continue to expect more selling in the coming days.

USDCAD

The USD/CAD pair is currently finding some buying strength in a corrective rally. The MACD reflects this buying volume, while the RSI is becoming overbought. However, the overall price action remains bearish. We will look for selling opportunities, viewing this rally as a chance to enter short positions as the price tests the EMA200 as resistance.
