Eurodollar Dec Contract (EC, ETF: (FXE, UUP))
Firming Sunday night held up through Monday morning to avoid resuming the decline, and the anticipated break back under 1.1760, which remains likely so long as bounces hold 1.810
Gold Dec Contract (GC, ETF: (GLD))
Although Friday’s brief probe of fresh lows had been retraced while failing to gain traction, Sunday night’s bounce to 1288.00 resistance was premature for already launching a recovery. Monday’s gap up wasn’t any likelier to extend, still likely at least to fill the gap back down to Friday’s close, potentially down to 1269.50.
Silver Dec Contract (SI, ETF: (SLV))
Sunday night’s test of 16.90 was exceeded Monday morning to probe above 17.00. Holding a test of the decline’s 16.50 target on Friday does allow a bottom to form, although a test of 16.60 as support would help to make a recovery more credible.
30-year Treasury Dec Contract (US, ETF: (TLT))
Monday’s shallow range hovered just above the 151-18 pullback objective that would help to fully form a bottom. Its test remains likely, although not already resuming Friday’s dip does make a rally effort likely within the next two sessions. Closing above 152-20 would be credible for extending higher.
Crude Oil Nov Contract (CL, ETF: (USO, USL) (UWTI-long, DWTI-short))
Friday’s break wasn’t from a multi-session range, so Monday wasn’t capable of confirming it. So, ranging narrowly intraday — instead of extending down — doesn’t reject the downside momentum. A recovery should be obvious Tuesday to avoid lower lows.
Natural Gas Nov Contract (NG, ETF: (UNG, UNL))
Extending down Friday under the 2.89 target already had prevented Monday from recovering. Fresh lows were likely, but closing positive could have then suggested a bottom was forming. The morning’s fresh lows down to 2.83 consolidated through the afternoon but did not recover.
