The legend in the InstaSpot team!
Legend! You think that's bombastic rhetoric? But how should we call a man, who became the first Asian to win the junior world chess championship at 18 and who became the first Indian Grandmaster at 19? That was the start of a hard path to the World Champion title for Viswanathan Anand, the man who became a part of history of chess forever. Now one more legend in the InstaSpot team!
Borussia is one of the most titled football clubs in Germany, which has repeatedly proved to fans: the spirit of competition and leadership will certainly lead to success. Trade in the same way that sports professionals play the game: confidently and actively. Keep a "pass" from Borussia FC and be in the lead with InstaSpot!
The last completed downward wave broke the previous low, and the new upward wave broke the last peak. As I expected, the "bearish" trend never materialized. Market sentiment remains near panic levels, resulting in frequent movements that make it difficult to interpret the current technical picture clearly. However, Donald Trump and his policies continue to force the bears out of the market.
There was no notable news background on Monday, except for Trump's fresh tariff announcements. These sparked a new bullish wave and another drop in the U.S. dollar. This morning, the UK released reports on unemployment and wages, which traders essentially ignored. First, the market remains fully focused on the trade war. Second, the data was uneventful and uninspiring. The unemployment rate remained unchanged at 4.4%, as expected. Average earnings rose by 5.6%, slightly below forecasts. The number of unemployed increased by 18.7K, just below expectations. Therefore, the pound had room to continue its rise—and did so even without help from the statistics. Over the past five days, sterling has gained 500 pips. As of Tuesday morning, I see no signs of a trend reversal.
On the 4-hour chart, the pair maintains a bullish trend. A close above the 76.4% Fibonacci level at 1.3118 allows for continued growth toward the 100.0% Fibonacci level at 1.3431. There are no emerging divergences on any indicators. Much still depends on Donald Trump's trade policy. I do not expect a strong rebound in the U.S. dollar in the near term—there are not even any graphical signals suggesting this.
Commitments of Traders (COT) Report:
The sentiment among the "Non-commercial" category became less bullish during the last reporting week. The number of long positions held by speculators decreased by 13,253, while short positions increased by 4,067. Bears have lost their edge in the market. The gap between long and short positions now stands at 18,000 in favor of the bulls: 92,000 vs. 74,000.
In my view, the pound still has room for a decline, but recent developments could cause the market to reverse in the longer term. Over the past 3 months, long positions increased from 80,000 to 92,000, while short positions dropped from 80,000 to 74,000. More importantly, over the last 10 weeks, long positions rose from 59,000 to 92,000, and shorts fell from 81,000 to 74,000.
News Calendar for the U.S. and UK:
Tuesday's economic calendar includes three notable releases that have already been published and turned out to be entirely uninteresting. As a result, the impact of the news background on traders' sentiment will likely be absent for the remainder of the day. News related to the trade war will be influential—if any emerges during the day.
