Week 38 has been very eventful to say the least. On Wednesday we had the Fed raise interest rates by an expected 75 basis points for a third consecutive time. This created uncertainty within the markets which provided us traders with volatile conditions.
SPX went down 6.2% after the meeting on the 21st however the dollar gained even more strength which is continuing its increasing strength compared to main currieries such as the EURO and the GBP.
EUR/USD is now at 2002 levels (20 year low) and the dollar gains more strength over the Euro due to the uncertainty which is happening in Europe with the Russia/Ukraine War tensions growing even thinner this week.
Oil has also continued its downturn in price with a further 8% drop this week in price which makes the current month down 12%.
The UK interest rates also rose 2.25% to battle with the inflation fears, currently inflation in the Uk has dropped slightly Month on Month to 9.9% (10.1% in August). There are growing concerns in the UK and the BOE this week has admitted that the UK is now in a Recession.
More doom and gloom the for High-risk equities are on the arisen.
On a positive note, here was some of the trades we were able to get in on, some trade's took longer to form than others, some trades were taken as a result of the news this week.
Natural Gas Trade - Head and Shoulder Pattern with break of neckline.
SPX Trade - Reaction of the Feds Meeting on the 21st + Continuation of a Downtrend
ETH/USDT Trade - started the end of week 37 and carried onto week 38, we exited the trade on the 19th
USD/JPY - This was a volatile 24 hours following on from the 21st, the yen gained back some power, but this could be short lived as predictions are looking towards the 1998 high
Brent Oil - We have Been bearish on Oil for the month of September, we have a symmetrical bearish pattern which is one of my favourite patterns to trade.
