Nonfarm Payrolls was published. What are the results?
We saw a very strong employment report from the United States, which naturally caused an increase in demand for the Dollar. Although this growth is still very modest (almost an hour USDX added just 0.2%), it is worth paying attention that the American economy retains the trend growth rate after the failure in September (fact - above average for half a year).
The unemployment rate remained at 3.7% (lows since 1969), although participation rate (the share of the economically active population) returned up to 62.9%.
There is one small point to stay a little bit caution. The average hourly earnings in the U.S. for October rose by 0.2% to 3.1% yoy, which is slightly worse than expected 3.2%.
Anyway, this is the highest growth rate since 2009 and a return to pre-crisis rates.
At the moment, the labour market retains its power and remains extremely "tight". This could be a strong signal for the Fed to continue tightening the policy.
Perhaps these fears were the reason for the return of tensions in the US stock markets, where key indices went down immediately after the publication of a strong employment report.

As the Bitcoin continues to trade sideways near $6,300, leading commentators declare they are “pleasantly surprised” with the market stability.
Stablecoins can be new crypto market triggers as recently they have been actively gaining capitalization and has grown numerically.
While Tether lost about $1 billion of capitalization only in October, Gemini Dollar (GUSD), Paxos Standart (PAX), TrueUSD (TUSD), USD Coin (USDC) all together attracted more than $400 million. Different large projects are standing behind these tokens, but overall they may have one goal: to have at their disposal the “manual analogue of digital liquidity” in order to be able to influence the market in future.

Important upcoming events and publications on November, 5:
🇬🇧 09:30 U.K. Services PMI is able to influence the British currency, as traders and investors will try to assess how much the uncertainty around Brexit has affected business sentiment. The Manufacturing index last week came out noticeably lower than expectations, while activity in the Construction was above forecast.
🇺🇸 14:45 US Services PMI by Markit is interesting because of its comparation with the European business activity indices. In fact, it is the more realistic indicator to track the difference in growth rates between Europe and USA.
🇺🇸 15:00 ISM Non-manufacturing PMI is a good indicator of US business activity, but is likely to have less impact on the markets this time, as it is published after the US employment statistics.

Strong employment data heightened the fears that the Fed will actively raise rates in the coming months to prevent overheating of the economy and not to push inflation out of control.
The trend of folding incentives was supported on Monday morning by the head of the Bank of Japan comments. In his speech, Kuroda noted that the strengthening of the economy allows to abandon excessively soft monetary policy.
A little over a week ago, the ECB head pointed to the continuation of plans to winding down the QE programme. Bank of England last week hints its intention to raise rates more decisively if Brexit will go smoothly.
Such a tone from large and influential central banks is developing fears in the markets about the lack of liquidity in the markets.

This helped markets to lift a bit at the end of last week after reports that Trump asked key cabinet secretaries to have their staff draw up a potential deal. Let's see what would become a driver this day!

Wave Analysis: #Palladium is expected to rise further and re-test the next resistance level 1130.00. Read more
Brent crude lost more than 16% from its peak value in early October. Essentially, a decrease of more than 20% from peak value is considered a sign of a bear market for the instrument and indicates a further decline.
During the October sale-off, the oil fell under the support line of the upward channel. However, such an exit from the channel still requires confirmation. Strictly speaking, price should fall below previous local lows.
It is interesting to see both lines dangerously passing close to the round level of $70. There is also an important prior support area, from which Brent Crude returned to growth in August.
Fundamentally, there are fears of a new episode of overproduction. However, the importance of technical analysis and psychological mark in this case are difficult to overestimate.
Alternative scenario: If Brent manages to stay above $70, this will imply a very strong signal for further growth.

🗓 Important upcoming events and publications for November 6 (GMT):
🇪🇺 09:00 Final euro area Composite PMI may slightly increase the #EUR volatility if the actual value is rather different from the expectations. The preliminary October estimate noted a business activity slowdown to the 2-years lows rate.
🇪🇺 10:00 EU Producer Price Index has strengthened its growth since May with the increased tension of US trade conflicts. Accelerating PPI spurs consumer inflation amid healthy growth and is able to support #EUR.
🇺🇸 15:00 JOLTs Job Openings in the U. S. has attracted attention in recent months as it several times in a row updates historical records reflecting a tight labor market. Another piece of strong data can support #USD.

October was a brutal month not only for the U.S. IT-Companies. Crude oil prices also had significant and important shifts.
After renewing the 4-year highs, Brent Crude Oil has lost more than 16% to date. By the beginning of October, its rally had been the strongest in more than 6 years, according to the RSI index. However, as in 2012, such a sharp growth was a harbinger of a serious twist of fate.

Three scenarios for market reaction to the upcoming U.S. midterm elections
The upcoming midterm elections have attracted the attention of the financial markets, as they can give an answer to the question of whether the American people will continue to support Trump. A potential victory of the Democratic Party could seriously undermine the president's initiatives. The President, who is severely restricted in his legislative initiatives, could be similar to the "lame duck" situation, the last time we saw it during final years of Obama's presidency.
