Chart of the Day - USDCAD​

USDCAD has been trading in a descending triangle pattern since October 2022. The pair failed to break above the resistance zone ranging below the 1.3500 area yesterday and can be seen pulling back today. USDCAD is expected to get more volatile later today as traders will be offered comments from both - Fed Chair Powell (5:40 pm GMT) and BoC Governor Macklem (5:45pm GMT).

Solid jobs data led some to believe that the Fed may switch back to a 50 bp rate hike at its next meeting and Powell's comments will be key in shaping expectations further. Macklem will deliver a speech titled "How monetary policy works" at CFA Society Quebec. Speech will surely touch on the topic of monetary policy as the title implies. More importantly, Macklem will answer reporters' questions afterwards at 7:00 pm GMT and it could be a chance for more details on the current policy outlook.

USDCAD is trading around 1% below upper limit of the triangle pattern and around 1.2% above the lower limit. While today's speeches from BoC and Fed heads may not lead to an immediate breakout, they could set the tone for the coming days, which may lead to a breakout. A textbook range of the breakout from the pattern in either direction is 720 pips.​

Chart of the Day - USDDIX​

The dollar index fell below 103 on Wednesday, extending yesterday's losses sparked by Powell’s latest comments. Head of the Fed said that more rate hikes will likely be needed and that the terminal rate could peak higher if the jobs market remains strong, however underlined that disinflation has begun. Traders now look ahead to more Fed commentary on Wednesday for further guidance.

From a technical point of view, USDIDX bounced off key resistance at 103.40, which is marked with upper limit of the local 1:1 structure, previous price reactions,50 SMA (green line) and upper limit of the descending channel. As long as price sits below the aforementioned level, the main sentiment remains bearish. Nearest major support to watch is located around recent lows at 100.60. On the other hand, if buyers manage to regain control, upward correction may be launched towards resistance at 105.30, which coincides with 38.2% Fibonacci retracement of the upward move launched in January 2021.​

Bitcoin is Trying to Maintain Momentum Above $23,000​

Bitcoin is trading near $23,000 today. After Powell's speech yesterday, cryptocurrencies were unable to continue their rally despite the initial euphoria. The mood among cryptocurrencies is mixed, with the biggest loser being Graph which gained nearly 50% yesterday on the AI trend. Let's take a look at some key 'on-chain' indicators like NUPL and SOPR, and see how the balance of short (STH) and long-term (LTH) BTC addresses:

NUPL (Net Unrealized Profit/ Loss Ratio) indicator tracks the ratio of unrealized profit/loss and shows that the rally has lifted Bitcoin above the average purchase price of the broad market, making the 'average' BTC holder back in profit. Compiling the duration of the negative NUPL in all the bull markets, we observe a historical similarity between the current cycle (166 days) and the bear markets of 2011-12 (157 days) and 2018-19 (134 days). However, the 2015-2016 bear market stood out under this, experiencing a dominance of unrealized losses twice as long as the current one. This could serve as a potential warning signal should BTC return below $20,000.

The ratio between the total unrealized gain held by the market and its annual average could be another indicator of momentum. The momentum metric is currently approaching the equilibrium point and shows similarities to the recent phases of the 2015 and 2018 bull markets. Confirmed breakouts above the equilibrium point (1 - the horizontal red line) coincided with a change in the market's profit structure in the past foreshadowed a longer recovery in sentiment. The length of time elapsed below the equilibrium point was similar in all major bear markets, but reaching a key on-chain level may foreshadow supply resistance - the index is struggling to climb above resistance on a sustained basis, which underscores how important it is to overcome $24,000 on a sustained basis.

The SOPR (Spent Output Profit Ratio) indicator can be used to check the profit aggregated by different groups of BTC holders. For short-term traders (STH, in red), we see that the STH-SOPR is currently trading above the 1.0 value, showing the first sharp increase in profitability since March 2022. This reflects the large amount of BTC purchased at lower prices in recent months, which can be sold at a profit if sentiment weakens further.

It is positive that not only short-term investors but the broader market also gained after a very deep and prolonged period of losses. However, assessing the LTH (Long Term Holder) group of long-term investors, we can see that the stressful situation has continued nd since the LUNY implosion. Although the group is still, on average, in a loss, there are the first signs of recovery, including the potential formation of an upward LTH-SOPR trend. During the 2018 bull market, long-term investors averaged 291 days in losses; today it's about 265 days.

Bitcoin, W1 interval. The major cryptocurrency is still struggling to climb above the 200-week average, which has turned into resistance from its historic, very strong support in 2022.​

​

Chart of the Day - USDCHF​

Swiss franc strengthened on Monday after the annual inflation rate in Switzerland jumped to 3.3% YoY in January, the highest reading since September 2022, from 2.8% in the prior month and above analysts' estimates of 2.9%, which should support the case for further SNB policy tightening. Pair may experience increased volatility ahead of tomorrow’s US inflation data that could reinforce the case for more Federal Reserve interest rate hikes.

From technical point of view, the pair broke below the local support at 0.9235, which is marked with previous price reactions, 23.6% Fibonacci retracement of the latest upward wave and 200 SMA (red line). As long as price sits below, downward move may deepen towards next major support at 0.9200, which coincides with the lower limit of the triangle formation, 50 SMA (green line) and 38.2% retracement.​

​

Chart of the Day - GBPUSD​

The GBPUSD pair erased most of the early gains as investors digested latest figures from the UK labour market. The UK Office for National Statistics Office for National Statistics reported that the unemployment rate remained unchanged at 3.7% in December as widely expected, while the number of people claiming unemployment-related benefits fell by 12.9K in January. Moreover, December reading was also revised down sharply to -3.2K as compared to the 19.7k rise estimated originally. The number of people in work grew by 74k in Q4 of 2022, easily topping analysts’ projections of a 40k increase. The number of part-time employees jumped to the highest level since the September-November period of 2021, however the number of full-time employees decreased but still above pre-pandemic levels. On self-employment, part-time self-employed increased, while full-time self-employed remained low.

On the other hand, in November 2022 to January 2023, job vacancies fell by 76K to 1,134K, the seventh consecutive quarterly fall, reflecting uncertainty across industries, as survey respondents continue to cite economic pressures as a factor in holding back on recruitment.

Meanwhile US dollar trades slightly lower, extending yesterday's decline, however further downside move may be capped as traders might refrain from placing aggressive bets ahead of the crucial US consumer inflation figures, which will be released at 1:30 pm BST.

From a technical point of view, GBPUSD rose sharply in the morning after the release of UK data, however the pair pulled back after buyers failed to break above the 100 EMA (purple line). If sellers manage to regain full control, then declines may deepen towards local support at 1.2075. On the other hand, if bulls manage to regain control, next key resistance to watch can be found around 1.2215.​

• European indices set for flat opening of the cash session​
• FOMC minutes due at 7:00 pm GMT​

European stock market indices are set to open little change compared to yesterday's cash session closing levels. This comes after a downbeat US session yesterday and in Asia today.

NZD is G10 top performer following RBNZ rate hike while AUD lags the most after disappointing Q4 data.

Economic calendar for the day ahead is light but includes some interesting releases. FOMC minutes release is a key macro event of the day. Powell has been rather hawkish at its latest meeting and investors are eager to see details of discussion.

• Revisions of European CPI data and US GDP data​
• CBRT expected to cut rates by 50 bp​

Futures markets point to a slightly higher opening of the European cash session today. This comes after a mixed trading in Asia earlier today and a mixed Wall Street trading yesterday.

The Central Bank of the Republic of Turkey is set to announce its next rate decision at 11:00 am GMT today and expectations are for 50 basis point rate cut. European CPI data and US Q4 GDP report will be revisions but may still trigger some moves on EURUSD should they show significant deviations from preliminary values. EURUSD may also see some moves on speeches from ECB and Fed members today. Energy traders will tune in for data on US oil and natural gas inventories.

US500 - Trade of the day

Facts:​

• US500 has broken out of the downward trend channel​
• Currently, there is consolidation around the resistance zone​
• The end of the hike cycle is near​

Recommendation:​

• Position: long on US500​
• Target Price: 4384, 4437​
• Stop Loss: 4230​

Justification:

The US500 index has broken out of the downward trend that has been ongoing since the end of 2021. The index's breakout occurred at a price of 4200 points. After overcoming resistance, the index price gained up to the level of 4250 points, after which it retested support at the level of 4200 points. The following days brought a decisive rebound, and the previous week the US500 index ended on a solid plus. The price clearly broke above the support line, indicating a strong move. It is currently in consolidation around 4300 points, increasing the chances of a possible further breakout.

Next week, investors are awaiting key inflation data and the FED's decision on interest rates. Currently, the market estimates no hikes and hopes for a signal of the end of the cycle. The lack of a hike at this meeting may lead to euphoria on the indices in the hope of ending the cycle and a "soft landing". Although such a scenario is rather unlikely, it may lead to increases in the valuations of risky assets in the short term. This may be a sufficient reason for the US500 to continue the strong upward trend and break above 4300 points in the short term. However, if the price does not break above 4300 points, we recommend setting a stop loss close enough to minimize losses.​
