AUDCAD

The AUDCAD pair ended the correctional bearish rebound by testing the key support 0.9105, to form solid obstacle against the negative trades, noticing the activation of the bullish track by reaching 0.9200.
Note that the frequent consolidation above the EMA50 and stochastic attempt to provide the positive momentum allow us to keep the bullish overview, to expect targeting 0.9240 followed by attempting to press on the initial barrier at 0.9310 in order to find a way to resume the bullish trades.

AUDJPY

AUDJPY has been trading sideways in recent days but the pair may be heading for a breakout from this short-term lull today. Release of much better than expected official PMIs from China supported market sentiment during the Asian trading session and is also providing support for indices from the Old Continent at the beginning of the European cash session today. However, AUDJPY has already given back some gains following the initial rally as investors are having second thoughts.

There are 2 factors at play for AUDJPY today. The first one is the aforementioned release of official Chinese PMIs. The second one, is a release of not so encouraging data from the Australian economy. The Australian GDP report for Q4 2022 showed growth of 0.5% QoQ, which was weaker than the 0.7% QoQ median estimate from economists. Moreover, Australian CPI data for January showed a quite significant slowdown from 8.4 to 7.4% YoY while markets expected a deceleration to 8.1% YoY. Weaker than expected GDP growth and bigger than expected slowdown in CPI inflation gives Reserve Bank of Australia some room to justify slowing or pausing the rate hike cycle. Taking a look at AUDJPY chart at D1 interval, we can see that the pair has been trading in a short-term upward channel since mid-December 2022. The pair made two attempts at breaking above the 93.00 resistance zone recently but have later pulled back following a failure. After around a week of trading sideways in the 91.70 area, we are seeing some action from AUDJPY bulls today. However, it should be noted that both - upper and lower - wicks of recent daily candlesticks have been quite large. This means that it cannot be ruled out that we will see reversal of today's gains later into the day and painting of another doji-like candlestick, signaling persisting indecisiveness.

XRPUSD - Pending decision on SEC lawsuit

This week, the XRPUSD pair resumed growth after the negative dynamics last Friday, which developed against the backdrop of the release of January data on the price index of personal consumption expenditures in the United States: the figure rose from 5.3% to 5.4% YoY. The increase in value reinforced the fears of experts in the continuation of the tightening cycle of the regulator's monetary policy, which supported the dollar and put pressure on alternative assets. On the background of these data, the price dropped to the area of 0.3655 but now it has returned to the middle line of Bollinger bands around 0.3800.

The situation on the market remains uncertain as investors await the final decision on the suit of the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) against Ripple, which should follow soon. The agency insists that the XRP coin, like other cryptocurrencies, except for BTC, is an unregistered security. Corporation lawyers reject the accusations, stating the imperfection of the current definition of the concept of "security" and referring to the statements of the former head of the SEC, William Hinman, who claimed that the ETH token, similar to XRP, is not one. Experts believe that Ripple has a high chance of winning the process. They note that the SEC had previously initiated a similar lawsuit against blockchain platform LBRY, accusing it offering its own LBC tokens but the court ruled that LBC could only be considered a security if there was an initial coin offering (ICO). If Ripple convinces the court that there was no official initial offering, the decision could be favorable for the company, and then leading exchanges such as Coinbase and Binance will re-list XRP, and its price will rise, leveling the negative effect of American monetary policy. Now, the trading instrument is close to the middle line of Bollinger bands 0.3800, consolidation above which will give the prospect of resuming growth to 0.4150 (Murrey level [+1/8]) and 0.4330 (Fibonacci correction 23.6%). The key “bearish” level is 0.3662 (Murrey level [7/8]), a breakdown of which will provide a decline to 0.3418, 0.3662 (Murrey level [6/8]).

Resistance levels: 0.38, 0.415, 0.433 | Support levels: 0.3662, 0.3418

Nasdaq 100 - the bond market puts pressure on the asset

Against the background of growth in the bond market, one of the leading US indices Nasdaq 100 is correcting at 12053.0, and even financial reports are not able to significantly affect its dynamics.

The popular conferencing platform Zoom Video Communications Inc. released data yesterday, and although the peak periods for the company are behind, it shows stable growth: revenue was $1.12B dollars, up from $1.1B dollars a quarter earlier, and profit per share reached $1.22 dollars, up from $1.07 dollars previously.
The stock market is under pressure from the bond market, with popular 10-year yields hitting 3.9340% and up 0.55% today, conservative 20-year yields well above the 4.0% threshold, up 0.30% to 4.123%, and global 30-year bonds are at 3.928%, which covers the cost of 30-year mortgage loans by more than 60.0%, which is an undeniable advantage compared to risky investment assets. On the daily chart, the trading instrument is correcting within the global Expanding formation pattern, declining towards the support line, and technical indicators gave a sell signal.

Resistance levels: 12300, 12900 | Support levels: 11900, 11200

NZDUSD

The NZDUSD pair rallied upwards to breach the bearish channel’s resistance and head towards testing the most important resistance at 0.6290, and we prefer to stay aside until the price confirms its situation according to this level, as continuing the rise and breaching it will push the price to achieve additional gains that start by visiting 0.6385 areas, while consolidating below it will press on the price to resume the correctional bearish wave that its targets begin by testing 0.6140. The expected trading range for today is between 0.6180 support and 0.6280 resistance.

EURGBP

EUR could be on the move later today when the CPI report for February from the euro area and ECB minutes are released at 10:00 am GMT and 12:30 pm GMT, respectively. CPI reading may draw more attention as it will be more timely - keep in mind that ECB minutes will be a recap of discussions from around 3 weeks ago and therefore views included may be outdated. In fact, many ECB members have struck a hawkish tone since the latest meeting with ECB President Lagarde saying this morning that a 50 bp rate hike at the March meeting is still on the table. This has provided some support for EUR this morning and put some pressure on European equities. Lagarde also said that she does not expect recession in the euro area and that inflation should start to slow from march due to base effects. Taking a look at EURGBP chart at D1 interval, we can see that the pair has climbed to the 0.8900 resistance zone yesterday. An attempt to break above was made today on the back of Lagarde's comments but those gains were already erased. Nevertheless, another attempt cannot be ruled out given two potential EUR-volatility events later in the day (CPI and ECB minutes). Also the pair may see some action during speeches from ECB Schnabel (12:30 pm GMT), BoE Tenreyro (1:00 pm GMT) and BoE Pill (3:00 pm GMT).

Bitcoin

Cryptocurrencies are on watch as potentially another collapse is brewing on the markets. Concerns are mounting over the financial condition of Silvergate Bank, a bank that specializes in cryptocurrency transactions. Silvergate warned in a filing on Wednesday that recent losses that the bank has experienced may leave it with less capital than it needs. Company also said that it failed to meet the deadline to submit its annual report to the US Securities and Exchange Commission.

Reaction was quick with hedge funds, partners and investors pulling out from the Bank, leading to a collapse in its share price. Cryptocurrency companies, like for example Coinbase, stop accepting and initiating payments to or from Silvergate. However, some companies, like for example BitStamp, warned that they cannot be held responsible for any funds deposited at Silvergate accounts, signaling to clients that they decide to use Silvergate accounts at their own risk. Whole situation is putting pressure on cryptocurrencies with major coins dropping 3-7% today. Taking a look at the BITCOIN chart at the D1 interval, we can see that the coin is testing a major support zone today. The $22,450 area is marked with previous price reactions as well as the lower limit of a local market geometry. A break below would, at least in theory, hint at a short-term trend reversal. In such a scenario, declines could deepen with sellers targeting the next support zone in-line - $21,200 area marked with previous price reactions and 100-period Exponential Moving Average (green line).
