and since I dont have a bead into those market subleties just go by price action and risk control

Option Profile now BEARISH Euro futures – any rallies should be sold

[SF Monedge]

All stock market internals closed under moderate pressure.  Being long Euro holds limited potential if trading very short term.

XAUUSD 4 HOUR CHART – 2400-2450 BUT FOR HOW LONG?

tHIS CHART IS VERY CLEAR —

2450 IS THE NEW RECORD HIGH (pOWER OF 50)

2407 IS KEY SUPPORT, IF BROKEN THE 2 BLUE AT LINES WOULD INDICATE A CHANGE IN DIRECTIONAL RISK ALTHOUGH i WOULD LOOK FOR CONFIRMATION FROM A 2400 BREAK.

OTHERWISE, XAUUSD IS JUST TAKING A BREATHER AS LONG AS IT TRADES IN 2400-2450

BTC WEEKLY CHART – 11 Weeks and counting

BTC made a run at its 73839 record high but stalled around 72000 and has so far been unable to sustain a move above 70000.

As I have been noting, besides the record high I prefer to look at pivotal levels like 60K, 65K, 70K/

To make a serious run at the record high 70k+ would need to become support.

Otherwise, as the chart shows, it is 11 weeks since the high was set.

How bad is your analyst?  The S/P 500 is 90% above what the average of analysts predicted.

[SF Monedge]

Monedge views a lot of “internals” including those pertaining to stocks, not only in the US, to find a consensus of market flows.  This morning one thing catching our attention is the Nasdaq 50 index rejecting 3 months highs.  It would arguably require something strong to move Nasdaq up further this week and stick.  This translates to currencies like Euro which are quite largely risk on/off motivated.

[SF Monedge]

Bank stocks are steadily declining following the initial grandma style climb up from the open.  Not favorable to Euro if it sticks.

Canada’s consumer price index
–
* cooled to 2.7 per cent in April, down from 2.9 per cent in March, led by the slower growth of food prices, Statistics Canada said Tuesday.

CBC – basically a gov’t mouthpiece – says abaout the CPI:
– “The Bank of Canada’s preferred measures of core inflation also eased — a happy sign for the central bank, which will make its next interest rate decision on June 5.

Many economists expect that the bank will start cutting rates at that meeting.”
