Week Ahead 27
Equities
Trade war worries put some pressure on equities especially in Europe. SP500 could make a higher high but still well off from its highest level. Now it is facing with various resistances such as MAs and levels.
NQ week before last could set a record level but now retreated bellow the resistance it had broken. The 50DMA did't seem to be a strong support in the past so buying the dip looks better at around 6600 DMA value.
DAX formed a double top and broke the support at 12550 and it is again bellow now the 200 DMA. The strong support is the 11735 April low.
Bonds
The US 2Y yield is forming a double top whereas the 10Y reversed way bellow the 3.13% high resulting in the further flattening the curve that is not a good sign for equities.
Copper is at at critical level. Should that break we might see the 2017 levels again that would be a bad sign for equities.
Oil is still in a strong uptrend making new high.
Gold
Gold is in a strong downtrend nearing the December low strong resistance.
