December Begins San Francisco MONEDGE 19:03 GMT 12/02/2023 - My Profile November 2023 was fascinating in terms of global economic and market related activities. Trying to make a US Dollar or a Swedish Krone out of it was an environment for those who can remain reasonably calm during volatility. Markets remain subject to sudden change due to turbulent geopolitical, economic and conflict related conditions. One of the components of our system includes algorithmic cycle analysis. It is a projection based on existing market flows and the probabilities of them sustaining. The results for a few markets looking forward are : Gold Likely to pause its strong run from that ended the week and settle toward the 2070 region before seeing another wave of buying transpire, which may or may not challenge the highs of 12/1. The primary flow is the buy side. Euro Likely to pause its primary sell side cycle in the coming week at some point while the market approaches 1.0800. US Dollar Likely to pause into the 102.60 area before seeing buying interest develop. The primary flow is the sell side overall. Yen Likely to see further buy side interest develop. We commented the week prior that a buying would likely develop. The primary flow is the buy side remains the buy side overall to this point. British Sterling Likely to see limited sell side interest develop only to be followed by continued buy side interest. The primary cycle is the buy side to this point.

mkt Mtl JP 12:31 GMT 12/02/2023 - My Profile Gold and historians at The Wall Street Journal: • Gold Futures Settle at Record High to End the Week Gold finished Friday at a record high, boosted by sliding interest rates, central bank purchases and war. Front-month futures on the precious metal rose 1.6% Friday and settled at $2,071 a troy ounce, their highest settlement since August 6, 2020, when they closed at $2,051.

mkt dc CB 19:46 GMT 12/01/2023 ZH con't) That's just the start. As Bloomberg notes, gold calls were also in strong demand, both for futures and the biggest ETF tied to the metal, as bullion marched closer to a record high Friday. As shown in the chart below................ Then again, if the Fed is indeed set to cut rates as soon as March, and then proceed with more QE which will be inevitable to monetize the soaring US budget deficit and exploding interest payments, then we are set for new all time highs in everything - gold, bitcoin, stocks... oh and oil; because after the current bout of CTA selling is finally over, oil and commodities will be the next asset class to hit record highs at which point Powell's mutation into Arthur Burns will be complete, ___confidence in the Fed will be crushed.............
mkt dc CB 19:27 GMT 12/01/2023 Powell, You Have A Problem: Gold Hits All Time High As Markets Price In Rate Cuts As Soon As March ... the Fed chair appeared largely nonchallant, and in his fireside chat earlier today, what the market focused on was Powell's comment that rates are "well into restrictive territory" which not only assured there would be no more rate hikes, but steamrolled Powell's other, hawkish warning.... https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/powell-you-have-problem-gold-hits-all-time-high-markets-price-rate-cuts-soon-march ____________________________________________________________ Powell: 'they won't be tagging me 'Chairman *Co#k Block* in the Fin Press this time.

mkt San Francisco Monedge 17:13 GMT 12/01/2023 - My Profile JP - female dominated quantum physics as applied to global markets results in a confirmation of random walk theory only to be discounted by the law of averages and stochastic ebb and flow. So balance is the key. It always returns to the median. ;)
mkt San Francisco Monedge 17:04 GMT 12/01/2023 - My Profile Many markets such as oil and gold are dominated by CTA's which function primarily on algorithmic systems, with about 68% employing additional discretionary management. Highly momentum oriented. An old friend who was an old school CTA lamented how bare the floors were becoming of humans entering the early 2000's. The writing on the wall was visible. Our read for Usd/Jpy is at 10% now at 147. If buying takes hold those algorithms will amplify it.
mkt San Francisco Monedge 16:15 GMT 12/01/2023 - My Profile Our # did stabilize in the 30% read but it is hardly inconceivable that selling accelerates again. So for those late to the party in what has been rather volatile intra-day up/down spikes it looks like there could be another opportunity to short again around the 147.70 region a bit later. Purely considering the war effect perhaps logic dictates being short usd/chf into the weekend. That said, all it takes is for a female to disturb physics.

mkt San Francisco Monedge 15:28 GMT 12/01/2023 - My Profile Hi JP - Usd/Jpy is at 30%. Quite negative with room to continue. Entering 147.20 area it could stabilize however. It is only a coinidence the number and price are close this time.

Mkt Mtl JP 10:21 GMT 12/01/2023 - My Profile saving myself typing - Market pushback on central banks' rates view just got louder LONDON (Reuters) - A big disconnect between financial markets and central banks has just got deeper, with traders ramping up their bets on interest rate cuts in the United States and Europe as evidence grows that inflationary pressures are fast abating. Money markets are now pricing in over 100 basis points apiece of rate cuts from the U.S. Federal Reserve and European Central Bank next year, and have this week shifted the expected timing of their first moves firmly forward into the first half of 2024. Markets now fully price in a 25 basis point U.S. rate cut in May, having seen a 65% chance earlier this week. Just a few weeks ago, a first cut was seen in June. Bets for a March cut have also shot up, with traders pricing in nearly a 50% chance, versus 35% earlier this week.
Mkt Mtl JP 10:12 GMT 12/01/2023 - My Profile lets see .. - 1) increasing market conviction that the Fed is DONE raising interest rates. 2) increasing market expectation that FED will start cutting interest rates in 2024 The game will be about re-pricing the current when expectation of cuts i.e gaming the timing.

mkt San Francisco Monedge 17:47 GMT 11/30/2023 - My Profile Short Euro is a preference overall but with Eur/Jpy gaining momentum against the grain (our primarily momentum driven model is at 55% which is a sell from much earlier in a decline) patience may be a virtue for a little bit longer today if adding to the short side.

mkt San Francisco Monedge 17:24 GMT 11/30/2023 - My Profile In our experience while balancing options contracts for various markets in the past, S/P 500 being the most prevalent, was the good CTA's, brokers, and institutions you could see on your screen had already handled month end and expiry rollovers prior to the last day of the month or the expiry. They are simply running good positions and continuing or hedging for a variety of reasons, including client agendas. The rest are trying to figure out how to dress up rolling losses or keep unrealized losses off the books. Often they are forced to wait until the latter part of the day.
INFLATION PAR 15:12 GMT 11/30/2023 Opec+ to spoil the " inflation is coming down"party. Winter is coming and it's going to be cold, very cold.
