► Yesterday's WTI position triggered our TP for a very nice profit and then fell even further, only to make a (temporary) V-shaped recovery. We are now SHORT again near the triggered TP (~67.65; spot price // ~67.95 Nov'24 contract).

► The return of oil production from Libya, which further increases supply, ahead of further planned production increases by OPEC+ in December (a total of ~180,000 barrels – not much, but given an oversupply, more headwind for oil), led to the sharp decline in European trading.

► Oil prices remain under pressure despite the recent significant escalations in the Middle East. In particular, slow economic growth in China and weak demand from the world's largest oil importer (also China) have weighed heavily on the price of oil.

► We also see a stronger USD - the further weakness of the Eurozone economy in particular makes the USD more attractive and raises expectations that the ECB will not be slower than the Fed in cutting interest rates (as I have been predicting over the last few weeks anyway).

4/6 - (3 open position)


We have set the perfect TPs for our two remaining open Friday positions and therefore also closed Friday with a 100% 🏆 success rate. This means that we closed Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday with a success rate of 🏆 100% each. The two negative index trades on Thursday - when the market was surprised by the further massive Chinese stimulus measures (+ the extreme gains of Micron after the earnings report) - caused our only losing trades.

We also had excellent timing today and also closed very well (ahead of Powell's speech, which didn't bring much news but brought swap markets back down to earth - it is very unlikely that the Fed will cut by 50bps again in just 5 weeks).

We will remain cautious. There is a risk of another wave of profit taking at the start of the new month/quarter.

Congratulations - today was another very difficult trading day. Nevertheless, we have “survived” today exceptionally well. Yours, Robert

► We see that the (VIP ONLY) is benefiting from a weaker (VIP ONLY), which has weakened further following Fed Chairman Powell's comments, which make it clear that the Fed is in no hurry to cut interest rates rapidly (why should it?).

⚡️ RAPID UPDATE 🕯
Gold (XAU/USD)🥇
SL 🔑 @: 2637.69
TP ✅ @: 2648.97

We see gold now receiving fundamental support as yields cool after an earlier rise. We also see the USD giving back some of its earlier gains.

We are now setting an in-profit SL here and tightening our TP slightly (but not too tight). Some of you have already closed well in the money before.

We see the gold price hovering around the $2,640 level. If our SL is triggered, we can find a better re-entry - we think gold is generally attractive here (incl. for medium-term investing).

🔰 VIP SIGNAL 🕯
SELL WHEN* NYSE OPENS 🔽 (VIP ONLY) 🇺🇸

We are not positioned on Wall Street as we also closed our Nasdaq 100 basically perfect at ✅ @: 20073.90 (respectively on Friday).

► We see Wall Street little changed but opening slightly lower after first starting positive in very early pre-market trading (during today's Asian trading/even in Asian pre-market trading), which also drove our Nasdaq 100 in our perfectly positioned TP. We see weakness in Europe and mixed markets in Asia (with only China showing strong outperformance

► We see geopolitical tensions, but these have not created a significant risk premium on (VIP ONLY). Further Chinese stimulus measures have also done little to support oil prices today, especially as concerns are high that Saudi Arabia is now changing its strategy and focusing more on not losing any more market share rather than focusing on pushing oil prices towards $100/barrel.

► The (VIP ONLY) sector performed very well on Friday. (VIP ONLY) on Friday and opens almost unchanged today. We are positioning us SHORT near (VIP ONLY)* (range (VIP ONLY)) and expect some profit taking. China's massive push towards electric vehicles is also impacting oil prices and is further increasing expectations that

►In light of the escalation in the Middle East and further stimulus measures by China, (VIP ONLY) disappointing. We are also seeing slightly lower expectations for a Fed rate cut of 50 basis points, which is putting additional pressure on (VIP ONLY) ...

🔰 FREE VIP SIGNAL 🕯
BUY NOW 🔼 Gold (XAU/USD)🥇
SL 🔑 @: (VIP ONLY)
TP ✅ @: (VIP ONLY)

► Our gold LONG positions closed virtually perfect today at $2,665 after gold opened higher for the first time this week - also due to the clear further escalation in the Middle East after Israel widened its confrontation with Iran's allies, Hezbollah in Lebanon, but also with the Houthis in Yemen and launched aggressive airstrikes on Sunday, fueling fears of an all-out war in the Middle East. Israeli airstrikes in Lebanon on Sunday killed more key figures in the militant group Hezbollah, including Nabil Kaouk, making him the seventh senior figure to be killed in Israeli strikes in just over a week.

► I think a limited offensive by Israel into Lebanon is very likely. Geopolitical tension supports gold.

► Gold saw some profit-taking after gains in early Asian trading (and Asian pre-market) as Chinese investors pushed heavily into Chinese equities, selling mostly gold, which had performed very well in recent weeks, in order to have more liquidity and benefit from gains in Chinese equities. It was the strongest rise in the Chinese stock market in a single day since 2008.

► We can now re-enter gold near $2,635 or ~$30 (!) below our TP.

► We saw yields rise a bit in early US premarket trading but we see them cooling off again, with the USD also unable to strengthen again for now.

► Rate cut expectations have fallen from overly optimistic levels - but markets still expect a 40% chance of a 50 basis point Fed rate cut in early November. Inflation data from the Eurozone (Italy/Germany) will further support the case for ECB rate cuts as inflation is already below the ECB's 2% target.

► Gold remains very attractive in the medium term, which also means that the downside potential is limited.

🗣️ Tip: Multiply your usual trade size by ~ 0.4 - 0.6 (30% - 30%) when trading gold (XAU/USD)

Nasdaq (NAS100 / US100) 🇺🇸
TP trigger ✅ @: 20073.90

Gold (XAU/USD)🥇
TP trigger ✅ @: 2664.97

We are starting the new week with a double TP trigger because there has indeed been a significant escalation in the Middle East, as we predicted: The assassination of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah by Israel is a clear further escalation that further fuels tensions in the Middle East and intensifies the war on the Lebanese border. What this death ultimately means and how Hezbollah will now develop or reposition itself remains to be seen. The Iran-backed militant group only announced that it would continue the fight, although a growing number of high-ranking Hezbollah members have been killed and Hezbollah is now very weakened. The next escalation could be a limited Israeli ground incursion into Lebanon or a response from Iran, which has lost further power in the region, while Israel clearly has the upper hand.

In particular, our Gold Re-Entry now closed very deep in the money.

Congratulations on another perfect prediction and very strong positioning // Nevertheless, we must not forget the suffering in the Middle East and also be aware that our big profits can go hand in hand with greater responsibility, should. We remain aware of our "privileged" situation and help (when possible) ❤️‍🩹

Our Nasdaq 100 and WTI positions are break-even / or in profit (WTI well in profit).

I see the Nasdaq 100 with more upside in the following week and also see oil benefiting from strong US economic data, China's massive stimulus measures and ongoing expectations for monetary easing from the Fed, ECB etc.

We can work here with tight TPs or close soon / slightly in profit (break-even at worst). I prefer to NOT take these positions into next week.

STAY LONG* 🔼 Gold (XAU/USD)🥇
SL 🔑 @: 2638.79

► Weak performance of chip stocks, in particular Nasdaq heavyweights Nvidia (-3.1%) and Broadcom (-3.2%), pushed the (VIP ONLY) into negative territory today, despite today's US PCE data (the Fed's preferred measure of inflation) being very Fed-friendly. Today's PCE data suggests that inflation remains under control, and if this trend continues in October, the Fed can focus almost exclusively on the labor market, which means more rate cuts.

► Swap markets have slightly raised expectations for a 50 basis point rate cut (by about 3-5 percentage points), but we also see that some investors are skeptical that the Fed sees the need for another large rate cut, as US economic data (including labor market data) and also (VIP ONLY) show no signs of (critical) deterioration.

► We (VIP ONLY) in profit (VIP ONLY) and find an entry (VIP ONLY) (range (VIP ONLY)*). Overall, we see Wall Street mostly in the green. The rather defensive Dow Jones has even reached a new ATH. We set our TP (VIP ONLY) ...

► We also remain LONG in gold, which saw some profit-taking despite gold- and Fed-friendly data. The markets aggressively priced in faster rate cuts at the beginning of the week - we now see this somewhat reduced (but still over 50%). We do not see more fundamental headwinds for gold and are therefore entering near ~$2,646* (optional) with a smaller re-entry or improving our average entry price. We set a tight SL.

🔰 NYSE OPENING UPDATE 🕯

🔰 VIP SIGNAL 🕯
BUY NOW 🔼 (VIP ONLY)

🔰 FREE VIP SIGNAL 🕯
BUY AFTER* NYSE OPENS 🔼 Walmart (WMT) 🇺🇸

We saw the US PCE data in the Goldilocks area – it's not falling too fast, which would indicate a collapse in consumer demand, but rather that disinflation is continuing – even a bit faster than expected and in combination with the very robust US economic data of late. Furthermore, the PCE data keeps hopes alive for further (rapid) Fed rate cuts. There were also strong gains in Asia and solid gains in Europe. We expect further price gains.


🔹 The Nasdaq 100 (+0.3 %) has more room to the upside and could try to move back towards yesterday's highs ~20300+. We remain LONG, but may extend our TP slightly ✅ @: 20263.30. Our tight SL could be triggered during early NYSE opening trading, allowing us to re-enter the 20100 - 20150 range.


► (VIP ONLY) after a brief dip. I see fundamental and sentiment support for (VIP ONLY), especially after the Fed-friendly PCE data, which shows that the Fed is likely to continue to focus on preventing a slowdown in the US economy (especially the labor market) rather than fighting inflation. Yields are still lower but have recovered slightly. We want (VIP ONLY) LONG in (VIP ONLY) and find an entry point at $(VIP ONLY).

► Walmart disappointed yesterday because, despite its recent strong growth, the retail giant is still seen as a rather defensive stock, even with impressive e-commerce growth and hopes that Walmart can be a leader in AI adoption. I still see Walmart as a very good play on all time frames and believe that Walmart can recover some of yesterday's sharp losses (almost 2%). Walmart is underappreciated and has clearly returned to very impressive growth, even though it is already the largest retailer in the world by revenue. Walmart is very well managed. Walmart is trading at a premium after its strong performance this year, but it still has room to run - and investment banks remain very optimistic. We find an entry point in the 79.50 - 79.80* range and expect Walmart to rise above $80.00 initially and then record further recovery gains towards 80.50 - 81.00.


🗣️ Tip: (VIP ONLY)

🗣️ Tip: Multiply your usual trade size by ~ 620 - 660 (62,000% - 66,000%) trading with Walmart (WMT).

Gold (XAU/USD)🥇
SL 🔑 @: 2666.89

We are tightening our SL for our Nasdaq 100 position slightly - the reaction is relatively mild given that most data was in-line with expectations. However, the important core inflation m/m which excludes volatile food and energy prices, was up only 0.1% from July vs. 0.2% expected. It rose 2.7% from a year ago, in-line with estimates - explaining the rather mild reaction. Inflation-adjusted consumer spending climbed 0.1% - also in-line with expectations.

We also secure bigger profits with our gold position.

The situation is similar (as with gold) with our Nasdaq 100 position - which is also in profit pre PCE data (~30 points in profit). Depending on your entry price - you may set an in-profit / break-even SL here.

Ideal would be data that is not pointing to very sticky or worse accelerating inflation data.

I set an in-profit SL here (my initial entry is 20123.10). We work with a wide TP.

📊 SmartTrader Insights: Tuesday Markets Wrap 🗒

📆 Tuesday, October 1

❗️ Global stocks little changed after mixed European data & Powell signaling slower pace in lowering rates

► European stocks are little changed on Tuesday following a negative session. Spain's Manufacturing PMI rose to 53 in September, reflecting solid gains in output and new orders. However, Germany's Manufacturing PMI dropped to 40.6, marking a 12-month low, and the broader Eurozone saw a decline to 45, the lowest level this year showing that economic weakness persists. While Spain shows resilience, continued industrial slumps in Germany and France weigh heavily on the Eurozone's overall performance.

► U.S. markets are showing mixed signals as futures indicated a muted open following Monday’s gains. The S&P 500 secured its fourth consecutive quarter of advances, while the tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 followed suit. Investors are digesting Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell’s remarks on potential rate cuts, while keeping a close watch on upcoming data like the JOLTS report and ISM PMIs. Powell said the US central bank will lower interest rates "over time," while re-emphasizing that the overall economy remains on solid footing. The International Longshoremen’s Association strike, affecting ports from Maine to Texas, may disrupt significant trade volumes, impacting up to 50% of U.S. trade volumes.

► Asian markets closed mixed, with Japan’s Nikkei 225 jumping 1.99%, driven by a weaker JPY benefiting export-reliant industries. Japan’s unemployment rate fell to 2.5%, better than expected, while manufacturing PMI saw slight improvement, revised to 49.7. China and Hong Kong markets were closed for holidays, but China’s recent stimulus-fueled surge continues to drive investor sentiment in the region. China’s markets are on a week-long holiday after the biggest single day surge in 16 years on Monday and last week's strong performance which was the best weekly performance since 1998. Australia’s retail sales rose by 0.7% in August, although the ASX 200 fell by 0.9% amid declines in commodity-linked stocks.

► Oil prices declined to $66.5/barrel, due to the possibility of the return of Libyan supply resulting in an even bigger supply glut. Meanwhile, gold rose back to $2,645 after recent slight profit taking that in particular were triggered by falling expectations for a 50-bps rate cut. Israel's targeted strikes on Lebanon (now with ground troops) are increasing demand for gold as a safe haven, but it was the next logical step, which our chief analyst Robert Lindner also predicted yesterday, and overall it was not very surprising.

7/7 = 100% 🏆 Success Rate

My expectations were that it would simply not be possible (especially not in chaotic September) to stay close to the 86-88% success rate - but not only were we able to stay in this incredible range, we are even moving back towards the 89% ‼️ ... It is difficult to put our trading performance into words, or even to comprehend it... 👏

It is certainly second to none especially given the large number of trades over so many days, the fact that we are not closing micro profits, that we are trading all asset classes and trading almost 50/50 LONG vs SHORT. Congratulations - we are achieving this together 🤝

⚡️ FREE RAPID SIGNAL 🕯
SELL NOW 🔽 WTI (USOIL) 🛢 (spot)

⏱ Signal DELAYED by: 60+ (!) minutes! ⚠️⚠️⚠️

► We see WTI back to session highs near $69.00 (spot price). Given the significant escalation in the Middle East and China's ongoing stimulus measures, we see disappointing oil prices - a sign that oil prices remain under pressure despite tailwinds from fundamentals and sentiment, with expectations rising that Saudi Arabia and thus OPEC will change their strategy and focus more on maintaining/increasing their market share in the global oil market rather than trying to boost oil prices (with diminishing success recently; also due to record production by non-OPEC countries led by the US).

► OPEC+ currently only produces around 48% of global oil demand. Saudi Arabia's crude oil production accounts for less than 10% (!) of the global market, while US oil production has risen to 20% (!) of global supply.

► The market appears to be oversupplied and the outlook points to increased supply as OPEC+ plans to start increasing production in December.

► At the same time, oil demand in China remains weak (and it remains to be seen to what extent the current stimulus measures will boost oil demand). China's massive push into the electric vehicle industry, which has led to an impressive shift from internal combustion engine cars to electric vehicles, also raises fears that Chinese oil demand has already reached record highs or will only rise very slowly from now on before peaking and then falling significantly after 2030 and beyond.

🗣️ 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⚠️ The November-Futures Contract is currently $0.25 above spot price

🔰 FREE VIP SIGNAL 🕯
SELL NOW 🔽 Nasdaq (NAS100 / US100) 🇺🇸

► We are now selling the spike in the Nasdaq (range 20060 - 20095) and expect a difficult last September (or last quarter) session today and before October, as some investors are again concerned about a wave of profit-taking at the beginning of the month. October is also generally a difficult month for equities with high volatility - especially in election years.

► We still see Wall Street close to the ATH. China posted one of the best one-day performances in the history of the Chinese stock market today - but we have not seen this tailwind carry over to Europe.

► We are now seeing lower expectations of a Fed rate cut. Apple (up almost 2%) is now a strong positive driver for the Nasdaq 100, but also shows that investors are positioning themselves a bit more defensively (which is headwinds for the Nasdaq), especially in small-cap stocks (also in the lower half of the Nasdaq 100), which are mostly down.

🗣️ Tip: Multiply your usual trade size by ~ 4.5- 6.5 (450% - 650%) when trading the Nasdaq (NAS100)

🔰 FREE VIP SIGNAL 🕯
SELL NOW 🔽 EUR/USD

► We see the EUR/USD (again) in the 1.11900 - 1.12000 range, with the EUR remaining robust despite recent poor economic data from the Eurozone (such as PMIs) and sentiment data showing that consumer/business sentiment has not improved. In addition, we see the automotive industry facing its biggest problems in decades as the sales outlook for European/German car manufacturers deteriorates massively and they lose market share in the world's most important car market (China).

► Inflation in the Eurozone (Italy/Germany) was below expectations today and inflation is also already below the ECB's 2% target, putting pressure on the ECB to avoid prices falling too quickly (possibly even deflation damaging to the economy as we are already seeing with producer prices).

► In the swap markets, expectations for an ECB rate cut are rising, while expectations for a large Fed rate cut have fallen slightly in recent sessions. I think the most likely scenario is that both the ECB and the Fed will cut rates by 25 basis points in the upcoming rate decision, which means that the ECB remains well ahead in terms of monetary easing. There may be more in this direction today, with statements from ECB President Christina Lagarde and Fed Chair Jerome Powell.

► We sell the pair again in the 1.11900 - 1.12000 range and expect the EUR to lose some of its resilience.

► We also see the overall risk sentiment in Europe deteriorating as the US economy is growing strongly above average and China's economy has received mega-stimulus measures from Beijing and the PBOC.

📊 SmartTrader Insights: Monday Markets Wrap 🗒

📆 Monday, September 30

❗️ Auto sector drag heavily on European stocks; Chinese/HK stocks continue to soar

► European stocks started the week on a negative note, with the Stoxx 600 down about 0.7%. The auto sector weighed heavily on the index as Stellantis dropped nearly 14% (!) after revising down its profit margin forecast. Aston Martin plunged 20% (!), while Volkswagen issued its second profit warning in three months, adding to the sector's woes. Volkswagen trades nearly 5% lower in Frankfurt. In contrast, mining stocks benefited from China’s economic stimulus, with Rio Tinto Group leading gains. Later in the week, investors will watch Eurozone inflation and manufacturing data closely for further market direction.

► US equity futures remained stable with narrow moves across the board, as investors brace for economic data such as the NFP report, due later this week, which will further shape expectations for future interest-rate cuts by the Federal Reserve. Corporate earnings in the US have provided a positive backdrop for markets, with solid results lifting sentiment. In addition, data on the US economy, including labor market data and inflation data in the previous week, were overall almost ideal for the markets and sentiment and did not diminish the (overly) optimistic expectations of rapid interest rate cuts.

► Asia-Pacific stocks saw mixed performance, with Japan’s MSCI gauge dragged lower following a slump in Japanese stocks. Shigeru Ishiba's victory in Japan’s ruling party leadership race unsettled investors, pushing the Nikkei down. On the other hand, stock prices in China and Hong Kong rose, led by an 8.5% (!) rise in the CSI 300 Index - the biggest since 2008 - driven by further stimulus measures including relaxed home buying rules and lower mortgage rates. The Hang Seng Index in Hong Kong rose 3.52%, its highest level in 19 months. Our chief analyst Robert Lindner had predicted that the Chinese markets would start the new week well - but after the strongest one-week performance since 1998, it was actually even a historically strong start to the week. The Chinese economic data (PMIs) were mixed.

► Oil prices are little changed at near $68/barrel (spot price). However, geopolitical tensions in the Middle East escalated following the assassination of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah in Beirut. Investors are watching for Iran's response. Meanwhile, China's economic stimulus also supported oil demand expectations. Gold retreated slightly while hovering around all-time highs. We see gold prices trading at around $2,650/oz. After a positive start into the week during Asian trading, with gold rising back (above) $2,665, we now saw some profit taking during early European trading.

We ended yesterday with a 100% success rate (7 out of 7) – and that on a day when it was very difficult to trade, especially the mixed reaction to yesterday's US economic data. What a performance by guys - good job 👏 I'm meeting some friends/former colleagues tonight and hope you have a pleasant weekend.

Congratulations on another very strong week, especially as it was not easy to trade the sideways markets Monday - Wednesday (+ boost from China/Asia) and then two days with very important data that the market was waiting for all week, where it was especially difficult to assess what the market had already priced in.

⚡️ LIGHTNING-RAPID UPDATE 🕯
Nasdaq (NAS100 / US100) 🇺🇸

TP ✅ @: 20073.90
SL 🔑 @: 19928.90

Gold (XAU/USD)🥇
TP ✅ @: 2664.97
SL 🔑 @: 2639.37

Asian markets performed extremely well this week - with the Chinese markets rising the most in a single week since 2008 (!).

If you are still LONG in he Nasdaq 100 - you can widen your TP slightly and close likely in early Asian trading on Monday.

We can also update our gold position. Gold saw some profit taking - despite falling yields and rising rate cut expectations. It's also likely that we will see further escalation in the Middle East over the weekend. We can expect a solid start for gold in the upcoming week.

Our WTI position closed well in profit (TP ✅ @: 68.339 / or higher) // *Nov'24 price - 20 cents above spot price

We are now securing a mega profit.

What a trade! Congratulations! 💯

⚡️ FREE RAPID SIGNAL 🕯
SELL NOW 🔽 EUR/USD

► We are going SHORT again on EUR/USD, which retraced to 1.12000 despite the PCE data being a bit cooler than expected. We also see yields coming down (-3 bps for the 10-year US yields). The gains make little sense – especially considering that disinflation is happening faster in the Eurozone than in the US. French inflation data fell sharply to 1.2% year-on-year from 1.8% the previous month.

► Expectations for a 50 basis point interest rate cut rose to almost 55% (from around 50%), which also weighs on the USD. We sell the pair in the range 1.11985 - 1.12040.

⚠️ PCE data cooler than expectations - we are thus ideally positioned.

Congratulations!

⚡️ LIGHTNING-RAPID UPDATE 🕯
Gold (XAU/USD)🥇
CLOSE NOW / SOON ✅ @: 2665 - 2667
OR
SL 🔑 @: 2653.24* (OR WIDER!)
TP ✅ @: 2678.47

We have options with our gold position, but a tight in-profit SL wouldn't make much sense here, given that our gold position is only slightly in profit.

You could close now ahead of the US PCE data (near 2665) in profit or we work with a wider TP. Even when PCE data comes in a bit hotter-than-expected (or sticky) we can expect that investors are not scared enough to reduce expectations for a 50-bp rate cut very significantly. Gold will thus be able to recover from initial losses.

I don't expect inflation to have accelerated significantly - especially not with the recent decline in energy prices.

A third option is to set a SL tight (but off-profit*).
