Today's Outlook

On the previous day, while buyers returned to the market in Tokyo, dollar selling prevailed in New York against the backdrop of lower U.S. interest rates and the market closed at a lower level.

Hints for Tomorrow Seen in Retrospect

During the Tokyo session, dollar selling prevailed against the backdrop of lower U.S. interest rates, temporarily softening to the mid-149-yen level. The dollar continued to soften in the early European session, but in the latter half of the session, the dollar was back on a buying trend as U.S. stock futures stopped falling, and in the New York session, positive comments from President Trump regarding relations with China were reported, and the dollar turned higher. As a result, the pair closed the day having almost made up for the decline until European hours, and overall, the day was marked by an awareness of the firmness of the market after the adjustment.

In Tokyo hours, euro buying was dominated by the softening of the U.S. dollar, but in European hours, selling became more prevalent and the upward movement was restrained. As a result, the pair closed the day losing all of its intraday gains, making the day a day of heavy upside.

In Tokyo, the pound was bought on the back of a softening U.S. dollar, but in European hours, the pound turned to decline as sellers gained the upper hand.

During Tokyo hours, the dollar was predominantly bought against the backdrop of lower U.S. interest rates, and the Australian dollar fell to around 0.6450. In European hours, the dollar was bought back on the back of lower Australian bond yields and a pickup in stock prices, while in New York, the dollar was bought again in response to President Trump's positive comments on relations with China, but the buyers took over in the latter half of the session. As a result, the market regained all of the downside it had lost up to the early European session and closed higher.

AI's Afterword: Today's Market

looking back

The dollar sold off from Tokyo to early Europe, but in the New York time, dollar buying prevailed in response to comments made against China, and the market almost regained its downward momentum to close lower.

summary

After briefly softening in the mid-149-yen range, the dollar was bought back in New York and recovered to the 150-yen level.

Overall, the day was marked by a reconfirmation of the firmness of lower prices after an adjustment, and a search for a turning point in the trend was evident.

Although directional movements were limited, the amplitude of price movements widened slightly throughout the day.

Today's Price Movement

In Tokyo hours, the dollar was sold against the backdrop of lower U.S. interest rates, falling to around 149.50.

The softness continued in the early European session, but a rebound in U.S. stock futures in the second half of the day led to stronger buying.

In New York, President Trump's comments on China spurred dollar buying, which moved back to around 150.20.

Background & Materials

A temporary drop in U.S. interest rates and a softening of the U.S. dollar index were early downside factors.

The cautious stance of U.S. officials and risk aversion temporarily prompted yen buying.

Market sentiment was lifted by President Trump's positive attitude toward improving relations with China.

Technical Memo (Short-term)

The 149.50 area acted as short-term support and rebounded toward the end of the day.

The 150.20 area will be considered as a return guideline for the time being.

In the short term, the moving averages are converging and the shape of the range is still firmer.

Technical Memo (mid-term)

The uptrend that has been in place since the end of September has paused, suggesting that the market is entering an adjustment phase.

The resistance zone overlaps from the mid-150 yen to the 153 yen level, and upside pressure is conscious.

On the other hand, a break below 149 yen would easily allow for some push-buying, suggesting a continuation of the range tone.

impression

The market reacted quickly to policy statements, interest rate movements, and other materials, giving the impression that short-term position adjustments were the main focus.

The development of buying back into the market while testing lower prices reflects investors' cautious risk management stance.

The key to a clearer sense of direction will likely be U.S. economic indicators and statements from the beginning of the week.

trade observations

Short-term buybacks at the pushpoint were more prevalent than moves to break support.

During the rebound phase in New York, short-term longs worked after confirming a recovery to the 150-yen level.

The price range narrowed at the end of the day, giving the impression that trading settled down due to position adjustments.

checklist

See if 149.50 support can hold

Watch for a break through the resistance zone of 150.20-150.50

Confirmation of U.S. interest rate trends and change in risk appetite at the end of the week

looking back

In Tokyo, the softening of the U.S. dollar led to buying of the euro, while in Europe, selling turned to the upside, and in New York, buying of the dollar in response to comments made against China caused the euro to give up its gains.

summary

Risk appetite returned to the upside in the early going, but from Europe onward, there was a sense of weakness on the upside.

In New York, the euro was sluggish as dollar buying strengthened, offsetting intraday gains.

In the closing stages, it was difficult to determine the direction of the market, and there was a strong short-term traffic color.

Today's Price Movement

Tokyo time was dominated by buyers, with a test around 1.17

European hours saw a return sell-off and upside was restrained at the 1.17 level.

In New York, the dollar was bought in response to comments made against China and pushed back to the latter half of 1.16.

Background & Materials

Euro supported by slightly lower U.S. interest rates and early risk appetite

In Europe, profit-taking and position liquidation ahead of the indexes led to a return to the market.

In New York, positive comments on relations with China were conveyed and dollar buying strengthened.

Technical Memo (Short-term)

The 1.1700 area is the key to a return, and the market is likely to be pushed back if it fails to break above the 1.1700 area.

Focus is on whether the lower price can be maintained between 1.1670 and 1.1680 area.

Short-term moving averages are flat, suggesting range formation

Technical Memo (mid-term)

Continued to hover within a wide range in the upper 1.16s to just before 1.18

On the upside, we are aware of the heaviness around 1.18, and on the downside, we would like to observe a reaction in the mid-1.16s.

Momentum is likely to be neutral and direction will depend on materials

impression

It was a day of quick reactions to materials, with leadership switching from hour to hour.

Returns and pushes were intermingled, and the inclination of positions did not seem large.

Interest rates and indexes continue to line up for the next business day

trade observations

Tokyo's upswing was more likely to function as a short-term pushover.

In Europe, it was safe to follow lightly in line with the return-dominant trend.

New York's fast price movement and profit-dominant rotation were effective.

checklist

Confirmation that the lower band of 1.1670-1.1680 can be maintained

Confirmation of change in return pressure from 1.1700 to 1.1730

Today's Price Movement

The Tokyo session saw the pair rise to around 1.3450 on lower U.S. interest rates.

In European hours, risk aversion pushed the pair back to just below 1.34.

Background & Materials

Selling and buying were mixed throughout the day, with limited directional movement in the pound.

Short-term material from U.S. political-related statements also affected the liquidity situation.

The market is likely to be in the process of determining the consistency between interest rates and economic indicators.

trade observations

In European hours, Australian bond yields ceased to fall and stock prices rebounded, leading to a buyback and a recovery to the 0.6480 level

In New York, President Trump's comments on China strengthened dollar buying, but the Australian dollar was also bought and eventually held its highs.

Background & Materials

Temporary decline in U.S. interest rates triggered dollar buying back, contributing to early downward pressure

Market sentiment improved after President Trump's comments, buying both the dollar and the Australian dollar.

Technical Memo (Short-term)

0.6500 was considered as an upside guideline, and a test of an upside breakout was seen.

In the short term, moving averages converge and the shape of the firmer trend continues

Technical Memo (mid-term)

The downward trend since mid-September has slowed down and formed a holding pattern at the bottom of the market

While there is room for a test of the 0.66 level if the 0.6500+ level is established, the structure is likely to be pushed in the low 0.64s.

Medium-term direction is difficult to determine, and the trend will continue to move within the main range.

Markets were sensitive to news on U.S. interest rate trends and U.S.-China relations for the day.
