Asian equities advanced on Monday after U.S. stocks reached fresh records on Monday. Global stocks were boosted by rising oil and metal prices. All three U.S. stock benchmarks closed at all-time record highs at the same time, reminiscing about the strong rally in mid-August. The S&P 500 index SPX surged 0.8%, to close at a record 2,198.18. The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA added 0.5% to close at a record 18,956.69 and the Nasdaq Composite Index soared 0.9% to finish at 5,368.86.
Led by energy and material shares, the MSCI Asia Pacific Index of equities jumped nearly 1.0 percent. While copper headed for its highest close since July 2015, crude oil extended gains amid expectation over a production cut at next week’s meeting of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries. Over the weekend, Iran signaled optimism that OPEC will agree to a supply-cut deal and Iraq said it will offer new proposals to help bolster unity before next week’s meeting in Vienna.
On the New York Mercantile Exchange, light, sweet crude for January delivery rose 1.3%, to $48.88 a barrel while Brent crude edged 1.3% higher, to $49.54 a barrel.
In a brief clip posted to YouTube on Monday, the U.S. president-elect Donald Trump outlined his policy plans for his first 100 days in office, including withdrawing from the Trans-Pacific Partnership trade deal “from day one”. Trump called the TPP trade deal “a potential disaster for our country” and stated that he would “negotiate fair bilateral trade deals that bring jobs and industry back”.
Japan’s Prime Minister, Shinzo Abe, on Saturday warned that the TPP would be “meaningless” without US participation.
Technicals
USDCHF
Fig: USDCHF H4 Technical Chart
USDCHF has been trading in a thin range since last Thursday after the pair breached above the resistance at 1.00600. The short-term MA20 has played an important role in supporting the price. As can be seen from the ADX chart, there is a wide range between the +DI and –DI, which suggests a strengthening uptrend.
Trade suggestion
Buy Stop at 1.01200, Take profit at 1.02000, Stop loss at 1.00800
USDMXN
Fig: USDMXN H4 Technical Chart
USDMXN has been trapped between the two Fibonacci levels. After pulling back from the 23.6% retracement, the pair is heading downwards to the 38.2% handle. While the price action has crossed over two MAs from above, the RSI index is sliding, confirming the downtrend.
Trade suggestion
Sell Stop at 20.34500, Take profit at 20.14700, Stop loss at 20.40000
Natural Gas

Natural gas futures retreated from three-week highs at around 3.000 after a strong rally that sent the market into the oversold zone. As can be observed from the Stochastic chart, %K line has crossed over the %D line from above and has just escaped from the oversold area, which indicates a correction. The commodity has still been supported by two MAs. Therefore, a reversal is expected.
Trade suggestion
Buy Limit at 2.900, Take profit at 3.000, Stop loss at 2.850
NASDAQ
Fig: NASDAQ 100 index H4 Technical Chart
Nasdaq 100 index broke above the downward slopping resistance that connects lower highs since late-October. However, the benchmark is struggling at the resistance at 4880.00 as the market has reached the overbought zone, as indicated by the RSI chart. The price may fall deeper but the support at 4835.00 is within the sight.
Trade suggestion
Sell Stop at 4870.00, Take profit at 4835.00, Stop loss at 4890.00
