⚡️ RAPID UPDATE 🔰
Nasdaq (NAS100 / US100) 🇺🇸
SL 🔑 @: 18033.70
TP ✅ @: 18119.70
Since we are very LONG positioned in the market. We now set a tight TP and an in-profit SL for our Nasdaq 100 position which is (anyways) very deep in profit.
PS/edit: When you are not very LONG positioned - you can also work with a wider SL & TP as we continue to expect dip purchases.
⚡️ RAPID UPDATE 🔰
WTI (USOIL) 🛢
SL 🔑 @: 85.147
TP ✅ @: 85.797
If you want you can set a tight in-profit SL for our WTI position. Hot PPI data would short-term weigh slightly on oil and allows us to potentially get in at 84.60 - 85.00.
📊 ROB’S DAILY UPDATE 📈
‼️ Reduced Fed rate cut hopes & higher yields weigh on stocks ahead of ECB rate decision
Wall Street remains under pressure to push yields higher as stubborn US inflation forces investors to lower their expectations for Federal Reserve rate cuts. We see the S&P 500 little changed after the leading US index fell 1% on Wednesday following a surprisingly hot US CPI report that beat analysts' expectations for the third consecutive month.
Equity prices are also slightly lower in Europe as investors are also scaling back expectations of a rate cut by the ECB ahead of today's ECB interest rate decision, where the ECB is likely to leave rates unchanged.
Analysts continue to believe that the ECB will not push ahead with easing monetary conditions as the Fed is likely to keep rates high for longer (as we have always predicted). I do not share this view and believe that the ECB is preparing the markets for a rate cut as early as June.
Yesterday's US CPI report was a real shock to investors who had expected the US CPI data to again show that disinflation was returning. We saw the strongest one-day rise in USD since January and the strongest one-day rise in yields since August 2022, which shows how big a surprise it was for analysts/market participants.
Once again, we congratulate our community on an outstanding trading performance yesterday - while traders, investors and analysts around the world were caught on the wrong foot and suffered big losses, our community made a gigantic profit 🎆
We continue to expect a recovery and a return of positive market sentiment, however the swap markets have also significantly reduced rate cut expectations for the ECB and the Bank of England. If the ECB sends a more dovish signal, this could be enough to reverse sentiment again. We also saw heavy losses in European equities and expect a recovery soon.
The main focus will be on the ECB and today's ECB press conference. Today's US PPI data and possibly further signs of a strong US labor market could continue to weigh on Wall Street, but we expect optimism for the upcoming earnings season and a solid start to earnings season tomorrow to help markets trim recent sharp losses. The energy sector will continue to outperform, but I also see the tech sector (and big tech companies) being able to rally, supported by dip buying.
Oil prices have risen again after moving sideways for three sessions. Markets are concerned about a possible attack on Israel by Iran or its proxies, which could trigger a significant escalation of hostilities in the Middle East. We are also seeing a further upward trend in commodity prices: copper, zinc and other industrial metals continue to rise. Gold continues to see profit-taking due to high yields, but remains bullish.
👁 ROB'S MARKET OVERVIEW:
⚠️ We expect the ECB to leave interest rates unchanged. We do not believe the ECB will position itself as cautiously as the Fed and instead see it saying that conditions for rate cuts are approaching.

📊 SmartTrader Insights: Thursday Markets Wrap 🗒
📆 Thursday, April 11
❗️ Markets stabilize after hot US CPI shock that increased inflation concerns; ECB rate decision looms
► European stock markets showed little movement as all eyes turned towards the European Central Bank, anticipated to hold rates steady while setting the stage for a potential rate cut in June. Energy stocks were among the few standouts, buoyed by sustained oil prices amid Middle Eastern tensions. The Stoxx 600 (- 0.2%) barely moved, reflecting a market bracing for the ECB's signals amidst varying inflation and economic conditions across the region.
► In the US, futures markets stabilized after a notable drop in the S&P 500 and Nasdaq, triggered by US inflation data that came in hotter than expected, dampening hopes for imminent Federal Reserve rate cuts. With the Treasury 10-year yield topping 4.5% for the first time since November, the focus has slightly shifted from the Fed to the ECB's upcoming decisions, although Fed Chair Jerome Powell's recent comments still echo in market sentiments.
► Asian markets ended mixed with Japan and Hong Kong seeing declines, while China posted modest gains. This was due to the fact that Japanese equities suffered from the weaker confidence of manufacturers and the uncertainty of the JPY (or Bank of Japan) with renewed rumors of intervention. Conversely, China's markets received a minor boost from the central bank's support measures for the CNY, aiming to counteract the USD’s strength. China's consumer inflation rose at a slower pace than expected in March, edging up only 0.1% YoY compared to forecasts of 0.4%, reflecting a notable slowdown as post-Lunar New Year effects waned and non-food inflation eased
► Oil prices continued their recent gains, driven by ongoing geopolitical tensions and supply concerns, trading at $86/barrel. The gold price also recorded an upswing and continued to trade close to $2,335/oz. It thus continued its rally as investors flock to the safe haven in the face of ongoing uncertainty. However, the sharp rise in yields is creating some fundamental headwinds on gold in the short term.

Intel actually opened slightly above our tight SL - but still hit our SL and then fell significantly further. We are currently seeing very negative momentum in Intel - many investors are waiting for further clear signs that Intel can improve cash flow / revenue after the recent much larger than expected loss ($7bn operating loss) from Intel's Foundry business. April 5 is thus our first negative day (by success rate) in almost two months.
Tesla hit our TP after almost reaching our SL the day before. We saw even more significant losses for Tesla today, significantly underperforming the already negative Wall Street / Nasdaq 100.
⚡️ RAPID UPDATE 🔰
Gold (XAU/USD)🥇
TP ✅ @: 2343.29
We see high volatility - in bonds, yields, stocks and now with a nervous markets also in oil and gold.
We are tightening our TP for our gold position. We can find a better re-entry when closing in our TP in the next spike.
Yields pushed first significantly further up - putting pressure on growth stocks but also non-yielding gold. However, gold will also benefit from the increasingly nervous market.

► We see gold higher again - now even back above $2,350+ (currently at near $2,352) or at the level before the CPI data - even where yields have risen even further. Gold (of course) has recovery potential - especially if the USD gives back some of today's very strong gains. However, we see the recovery coming a little too early.
► As yields on US government bonds are still (still) 13 to 15 basis points higher, we are SHORT here again.

► We buy the dips in Alphabet (not very strong dip - but Alphabet remains bullish and in outperformance / at ~$155.50) and the stronger dip in Meta - which is currently trading 2% lower - and thus also underperforming Wall Street / the Nasdaq 100. Meta is more sensitive to yields.
► We can enter Meta well below yesterday's closing price (range $508.00 - $509.50) and expect positive momentum to return for Meta.
► Tesla opens close to our TP and will probably trigger it. Intel unfortunately will end up in the SL.

► We could have also traded gold SHORT in the short term (ahead of CPI data), but I expected exactly what we see now - first sharp losses and then a strong short-term rebound on concerns about headwinds in global equities.
► However, we see yields significantly higher - at the highest level since November or 11 - 13 basis points higher for now (US 10-Y).
► We are therefore selling the current rebound above $2,345, even though we remain bullish on gold. Yields are exerting too much fundamental pressure on gold.

❗️ PPI surprisingly cold at +0.2% MoM vs. +0.3% expected
PPI (Producer Price Inflation) figures are surprisingly cooler than expected = +0.2% MoM vs. +0.3% expected and well below the +0.6% in February. Core PPI in line with expectations. This is good for our positioning as it takes some of the headwind out of the sails after yesterday's hot CPI numbers. We expect a rebound and are very strongly positioned for a rebound of risk assets.
We see equities benefiting for now.
If our SL (WTI) triggers - we will re-enter at close to 🔼 85.00. Alternatively, give your position more room again (widening our SL - but keep it in-profit).
❗️ ECB announced on Thursday its decision to keep the key interest rate the same for the fifth consecutive time
We see very little reaction on the markets as this was widely expected. We see a slightly further weakening in the EUR which may intensify if ECB gives outlook for rate cuts as early as in June.
We see stocks also with minimal reaction. We continue to expect stocks benefiting from dip purchases later today. Hot US PPI could weigh a bit (in 10 minutes) on risk sentiment.
As we predicted, the ECB remains optimistic and says that data points to a decline in inflation, particularly relating to food and goods, weakened underlying risks to the figure, and only a moderating rise in wages. Additionally, the ECB predicted consumer prices will go down to their target of 2% "in a timely manner." This seems like another step to prepare markets for rate cuts.

BUY NOW 🔼 WTI (USOIL) 🛢
► We are buying the current dip in WTI to $85.00/barrel, down almost $1 in the last 60 minutes, on hopes that the US presence in Israel will reduce the possibility of further expansion of the conflict in the Middle East. Gen. Michael Kurilla, the commander of the United States Central Command (CENTCOM), arrived in Israel today for key talks amid escalating tensions with Iran.
►The US and its allies believe that major missile or drone attacks by Iran or its proxies (such as Hezbollah in Lebanon) on military and government targets in Israel are imminent.
► Oil prices are also being pressured by a much stronger USD after the US CPI report once again came in unexpectedly strong (we had expected this, but the market had expected disinflation to return). The USD rose more yesterday (in one day) than at any time since January.
► Higher yields / lower interest rate cut expectations are also weighing on the oil price. We expect yields to stabilize today. I also expect risk sentiment to improve again, which will support oil/commodity prices. OPEC will publish its monthly oil market report later today and the IEA oil market report will follow on Friday. I expect both reports to point to rising oil demand in the coming months.
🗣️ Tip: Multiply your usual lot size by ~ 0.6 - 0.8 (60% - 80%)* trading WTI (USOIL) / CRUDOIL - [VT Markets / PU Prime / Markets / Libertex] *multiply by 10 when trading at Admiral Market / Markets WebTrader / *multiply by 1000 when trading at Tickmill.

We anticipated the CPI report brilliantly and traded it even better. The CPI report was actually an extreme shock for the markets - mainly because analysts were expecting a return of disinflation. As a result, probably more than 90% of traders/investors made (substantial) losses today, also due to the high volatility.
Our profits with gold were once again outstanding - our gold trade from the previous day also closed deep in profit - especially when triggered with our TP2 and a wider SL. We also saw the strong profit taking in risk assets and the rebound (attempt) - just as we had predicted BEFORE the CPI data was released. We made excellent dip buys and acted with courage when the market acted fear-driven.
We can set optional TPs on our Nasdaq & DAX positions. We can also slightly tighten the TP for our open gold position.
Congratulations!

BUY NOW 🔼 Chevron (CVX) 🇺🇸
► We are already deeply positioned for a rebound - we still expect it. Considering how much bonds have fallen today (meaning yields have spiked massively), we see equities being very resilient here. We also see a much stronger USD - as investors/analysts have completely mis-forecast the rate cut outlook and CPI data over the past few weeks, or misjudged the situation. We see yields sharply higher - e.g. the US 2-Y e.g. by more than 20 (!) basis points. The USD records the strongest one-day gain since January.
► We are now seeing a little more profit-taking - especially in yield-sensitive / investment-intensive or international companies - we are seeing quite broad losses overall in New York. But given the massive rise in yields - again - stocks show resilience. And much of the hot CPI data comes from a strong US economy / high demand. We made a mega Meta trade today and are now re-entering the Meta close to $517.00, well below our triggered TP (519.4).
► We are also buying the slight headwind in Chevron. The stock is trading almost unchanged for today (~$162.00). I see more upside potential in oil prices - which gained today - despite the significantly stronger USD / expectations that interest rates will remain high for longer.
► Fears of further attacks on Israel by Iran (or its proxy powers) are also growing. This seems likely after Iran promised to retaliate against Israel and warnings from the US. Increased concern about Iran could also lead to pre-emptive attacks by Israel - for example, on Iranian infrastructure. Concerns about a further deterioration of the situation will continue to support energy prices as well as the gold price.

► The DAX hit indeed (temporary) resistance at 18200 - where we ideally would have closed for the perfect short-term rebound trade. However, we are now getting back into the DAX at near 18130 and continue to see the DAX in rebound mode.
► We see bonds still under pressure in the US - with yields now edging back to 14 - 15 bps higher for today (for the US 10-Y).
► However, the main driver for the hot US CPI report is generally a strong economy / higher oil and shelter prices. While Fed rate cut expectations should be further dialed back now - the US economy doesn't need rate cuts. I still see the ECB on path to cut rates in June (not later than July).

Congratulations. Also if you closed earlier.
We observe what gold does here at 2330.00 for a bit. Yields show signs of sliding now - which should result in gold pushing higher again (soon).

We secure our next mega, mega profits. We traded against the market which heavily sold stocks - also in Europe following the hotter-than-expected US CPI data - which made fundamentally no sense. We see the DAX now back at 18200 - where we may see a bit of resistance.
Also our Nasdaq 100 LONG is well in profit - we stay LONG.
Congratulations - we traded today's CPI data (so far) perfectly, very likely better than anyone else. I am happy all of you are part of this. Please share some of your profits with people in need ❤️

► We see everything as we expected. Not only the immediate reaction, but now the rebound as the bull market remains intact. The higher than expected CPI numbers are also a product of a strong / US economy in rapid expansion.
► We expect Wall Street to cut its heavy losses - with the Nasdaq possibly trying to climb back to 18150 - 18250 - so back to flat territory.
► Our DAX LONG is already very deep in profit - we remain LONG.
🗣️ Tip: Multiply your usual trade size by ~ 6 - 8 (600% - 800%) when trading the Nasdaq (NAS100).

Meta Platforms (META) 🇺🇸
SL 🔑 @: 512.67
TP ✅ @: 518.43
Alphabet is still bobbing around slightly - but that's a good sign.
We took the cake again with Meta. The social media giant even traded slightly positive in the meantime - almost 2% above the opening. We are already pulling the SL in-profit. We can re-enter at a better price if our SL is triggered.
Insane trades - we can assume that we traded the CPI figures and market reactions overall - especially with the mix of asset classes - better than anyone else - congratulations!

BUY NOW 🔼 DAX (GER_40) 🇩🇪
⚠️⚠️⚠️ LIVE TRADING ONLY IN VIP ⚠️⚠️⚠️
► European equities also fell sharply after the hot US CPI report.
► We continue to see the bull market as intact (also in the US). In a strongly growing economy (such as the US economy), we cannot expect accelerated disinflation. We have also recently seen higher commodity prices, including energy and food.
► European equities remain relatively undervalued compared to Wall Street. A correction in the DAX was overdue - it has now come and we are buying the dip.
► I also continue to see interest rate cuts - in July at the latest, more likely in June for the ECB.

TP triggered ✅ @: 2332.56
Congratulations. We traded these CPI data short-term perfectly. Another dream-come-true gold trade.
⚡️ RAPID UPDATE 🔰
TP ✅ @: 2333.67
We give gold a bit more room to fall. Much higher yields put pressure on non-yielding precious metals.
