🇺🇸 Pre-market trading trends on the US stock market

📈 The US stock market is showing a moderately positive trend in pre-market trading: major technology companies are posting significant gains, while the picture is mixed across other sectors.

In the Information Technology sector, NVIDIA (NVDA) is up 1.70%, while Micron Technology (MU) is up 2.89%.

In the Financials sector, JPMorgan Chase (JPM) is up 0.46%, while Bank of America (BAC) is up 0.71%.

In the Consumer Discretionary sector, Tesla (TSLA) is up 1.25%, while Amazon (AMZN) is up 0.15%.

The prevailing rise in the shares of the largest companies by market capitalisation points to a risk-on sentiment within the US market: interest in shares is high, and some capital is shifting toward riskier assets. For the dollar, this creates a largely neutral, and at times mildly negative, backdrop: demand for safe-haven dollar instruments is limited, but there is no significant pressure on the currency.

Gold: up or down?

Gold is under pressure due to high oil prices and expectations of a Fed rate rise.

The slowdown in the global economy may provide support in the long term.

▶️ Crude Oil. Triangle?

Today is Thursday, October 22, and let’s talk about the oil market and what’s happening there.

I think you can see that the most interesting thing here is a probable triangle forming within wave X. The exact wave labeling isn’t especially important here; what matters is the triangle itself. This is a continuation pattern, which means that after the triangle...

🇺🇸 Pre-market trading trends on the US stock market

📉 The US stock market is showing a predominantly negative trend in pre-market trading: most of the largest issuers by market capitalisation are trading lower, indicating prevailing risk aversion.

In the Information Technology sector, NVIDIA (NVDA) is down 2.25%, while Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) is down 4.41%.

In the Financials sector, Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.B) is up 0.61%, while JPMorgan Chase (JPM) is down 0.58%.

In the Energy sector, Exxon Mobil (XOM) is up 0.96%, while Chevron (CVX) is up 0.89%.

The overall picture points to selling pressure dominating the tech giants segment, with localised support in the energy and parts of the financial sectors, reflecting a risk-off sentiment within the US market.

In the foreign exchange market, this shift toward safe-haven assets is driving demand for the dollar and US Treasuries, contributing to a short-term strengthening of the US currency.

The crypto market has quickly wiped out its gains

The crypto market capitalisation has fallen by 2% over the past 24 hours to $2.74T. Selling pressure intensified after the market reached a 10-day high, pushing it back into its previous trading range. The pressure from sellers is raising questions about the nearest support levels. A fall below $2.7T would signal a breakout from the consolidation phase and could trigger an avalanche of stop-loss orders, exacerbating the decline. This would be an unexpected turn of events, given the positive seasonal trends and the market optimism that has built up over recent months.

On Wednesday, Bitcoin soared above $84.5K to a two-week high on the back of positive stock market momentum, but failed to sustain the rally and, by midday on Thursday, had erased Tuesday and Wednesday’s gains, retreating to $81.7K. This return to the 50-day moving average means the bulls cannot celebrate a quick victory. The price was unable to break away from this curve mid-year, spending about 40 days in a narrow range. The sell-off has been triggered by external factors, so the situation's further development may also be dictated by external events. It is interesting to note how synchronised the decline in gold and Bitcoin was on Thursday.
