Benchmarks : Weekly Update

  • Solid end to the week in terms of P&L but truly rough ride only made bearable by discipline in keeping position sizes under strict control.
  • USDX : Past week's price action was a test of the UpTL. Tested and held ie uptrend intact. If anything, this successful test has made the uptrend even convincing.
  • US10YY : Firmly sideways, narrowing into a triangle now (daily is clearer = triangle centred around 3.70%).
  • S&P500 : Uptrend continuation after break and close above 1151.
  • Gold : Looks like going sideways as well now. But useful inclusion in core book against all the other long USD positions to dampen overall P&L volatility. (Plus XAU/GBP and XAU/EUR looks like in a ST consolidation of strong LT uptrend).
