This Time is Different (so far)An inversion between the 2yr UST yield and the Federal Funds effective rate normally does not exceed -1%. When that happens, it's an indication the bond market is not getting the reaction from the Fed that it "expects" (or maybe it is a "want"). Inversions of this degree have normally been unkind to the equity market, but that is clearly not the case here in late 2023. Something to keep an eye on as the calendar turns to 2024.by jay_S_113

US 2 and 10 Years Yield for evaluating the recession riskPlease note that these are my premature ideas. I don't claim any certain things.

US20Y Analysis. I am bearish...Hello Everyone i want share my idea about US economic indicator. US economic is very strong what we hear but when i am looking that that price action tell me they are falling. This picture is simple, if my technical analysis will work here we have some strong RSI divergence, if indicator will drop below 50 LVL we will see some little trend change at lower timeframe but, if it will continue fall then we will see dollar fall too. Price were 3 times in overbuy, first and second time it fall but not too much and third time we have more clear divergences. For my prediction i need close this month below of last month low and give me new low-high. then i will try short Dollar index. for that it need few weeks to see we are right or not but at the moment i think i am right. BE PATIENT!!!Shortby elmakachoUpdated 225

Requested Update: Bond Yields Complete a 5-wave pattern higherWe have our first indication of a top in bond yields with price overlapping and losing it's impulsivity to the upside. However, a top is not confirmed until yields breach 3.40% which is our wave 4 of one lesser degree. To do so should confirm the beginning of our wave 2 decline into the target box, and over time.by maikisch6615
Business Cycle Rotation Part 4In the first three installments we described an exercise utilizing the long term momentum in asset classes, the relationship between those classes and the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) Composite Leading Indicator (CLI) for the United States, in order to anticipate the business cycle and markets. Those posts are linked below. Since October when this series was mostly written, several markets have made promising changes in their momentum states and chart patterns. But, this is a teaching exercise so we will mostly work with the data available at the end of September 2023 and mostly (aside from rates) ignore the dramatic changes of last few weeks. We begin by assessing the change between November 2022 and October 2023. Ideally we should measure at the same point each year. When I was actively managing money this was an exercise I updated in early January so that I could include it in my yearend recap and provide forward guidance to my team. But, given the time perspective involved, slight differences built over a month or two typically make little difference. Interestingly this year may be the exception. I have included a chart of the two and ten year Treasury yields (inverted). Note the three drives to a low pattern in twos, (a sign of waning supply/growing demand), the break of the downtrend (yet to be confirmed by a monthly close above) and the tentative turn into the bullish quadrant. I think of rates as the first mover in the cycle. To believe that the business cycle has turned virtuous I would like to see ten year rates make a solid top and begin to reverse at least some of the technical damage created by the break above the multi decade downtrend and the 3.25% pivot that had defined the bull market structure. I would also like to see a more definitive turn higher in twos. In October rates were oversold in terms of momentum and the structure from the 2020 low was completely intact Until I see solid signs of a monthly perspective yield top in the two year and ten year, it will be difficult for me to label this as the kind of high that would lead a change in the economic cycle. Note that the trendline break in the month of December has turned the shorter term 10 year Treasury (inverted) trend from down to neutral. Commodiites: Commodities have moved from the bull waning to strong decline sector. The weakness in commodities remains consistent with a business cycle that continues to weaken. Dollar: The Dollar remains in bull waning. It has benefited from global flight to quality, carry and the aggresiveness of our central bank verses other central banks. But, of the asset classes, the Dollars relationship to the business cycle is the least consistent. Equities: Domestic equities have been mired in the strong decline sector (in part two we discussed at length why equities were still plotted in this sector). In October we were still categorizing equities as lower due to the lack of a rally in most of the equal weight and broader indexes. That remains the case, but barely, with the equal weight moving slightly above the top of its range. In part 5 we will draw final conclusions and attempt to extrapolate them to 2024.

Anlysis of the 30Y treasury BondHere is my analysis of the 30Y treasury Bond. In fact , for the past weeks , this market has been trading lower. And my point is that it will continue trading lower until we reach the sellside liqudity level. That means that we could continue to witness bullish prices on indices due the invese correlation between the Bond market and the indices marketby yvanolinga220
US 10Y TREASURY: pricing rate cutsIt was final time for the Fed to align with the market. At the latest FOMC meeting, this was the case, considering that rhetoric about potential rate increases was not at all in the spotlight of Powell's speech, but clearly slowdown of inflation and that FOMC members are perceiving Fed`s rates at 4.6% as of the end of 2024. This was a clear signal for markets that rate cuts are coming during the course of the next year, with current anticipation that it could be already in March next year. Although 10Y US Treasury yields started the week around 4.28%, they swiftly reverted toward the downside and lowest weekly level at 3.9%. The market is currently testing the $4.0% level, which might impose some volatility in the week ahead around this level. Still, looking at the larger picture, the yields would certainly further test lower levels, currently eyeing 3.8%. by XBTFX14

US Dollar Index vs 10Y-03M Yield curve (LEADING Indicator)The real U.S yield curve (Blue) suggests that the U.S. Dollar (Yellow) may weaken over the next 12 months. The main beneficially will be Japanese YEN who haven't moved monetary policy for over 42 years. Currency pairs are relative to move so I see the Yen appreciating, followed by the EUR.by Macro-Traders-Strategies1118
Most important chart to check BEFORE any other market!After 4 years of upward movement and reaching the ceiling of 5% yeilds. Considering the momentum of the current downward trend from the 5% resistance, as long as the wave counting is considered correct and not violated, all financial markets, especially bitcoin, gold, and the US stock market for about the next year (2024) may be ascending IF the bonds break the 5% resistance, the whole scenario is cancelled Keep in mind that the amount of money printed and available to large investors to enter the financial markets is much more, and this can have much more extreme movements with it. But beyond these cases, finding suitable entry points for each market is a completely separate and important issue that must be examined separately. Neither gold nor Bitcoin are good places to buy now. Shortby NoaTraderUpdated 7
US10Y Bond SHORTBased on my analysis the US10Y Bonds has been in a bearish direction. Price broke the bullish uptrend towards this last quarter of 2023. I predict that it can go lower than 4%. I don't see it going back up close to 5% anytime soon. The Feds meeting this week will most likely have it go higher just to finish out the retrace between 4.2% and 4.3%. We are also in the biggest bear market for bonds in history. Shortby Smartwomanyaz_Updated 7
Dovish Fed sends rates lowerThe Federal Reserve on Wednesday indicated that its interest-rate hiking cycle has ended and that lower borrowing costs are coming in 2024. This was more dovish than the market anticipated and the US 10Y yield has sold off further. The short-term downtrend lies at 4.22% and while below here we will assume that the US 10Y yield remains under pressure. We would also highlight the erosion of the 200-day ma, which leaves the market on the defensive. The market has sold off towards 3.93%, the current location of the 55-week ma and the 23.6% retracement of the entire move up from March 2020. This may provoke some near-term consolidation. However, the market has also eroded its 2022-2023 uptrend, and this does leave it under pressure. Below 3.90% our attention reverts to the 20-month ma at 3.74%.

Jay just turned off the musicSo I think we all understand that the ship has changed course. Fed comments yesterday caused some real margin calls. Lots of folks on the wrong side of that one.

US10Y vs. SPX ~ Inverse Correlation/Ratio Indicator (Dec 2023)TVC:US10Y versus SP:SPX inverse correlation analysis. Work in progress indicator for anticipating market trend switches. Notes: Emerging correlation identified within US10Y/SPX ratio. Spikes in ratio (orange vertical line, dotted) aka bond yield ROC/volatility = higher probability of risk-off sentiment (ie big tech & growth stock rotation). Correlation only valid when market is "hyper-sensitive" to bond market fluctuations, especially during recent US Fed undertaking rate hike cycle. Should be used in conjunction with other confluence factors to provide conviction in swing/position trades. by BlueHatInvestorUpdated 0
Bund StepsA simple representation of potential support and resistance zones (larger rectangles) projected in time, meaning once the price is past their time zone, the price levels might not hold the same amount of relevance. Looking for price action with potential candlestick patterns for reversals (pivot points), also looking for candlestick shadows at the shapes. Small rectangles pose just as milestones or guiding elements for potential price tendencies. Icons are usually potential price predictions/projections in time but a hit is not required. Considering the overall picture the main scenario might suggest resistance zone at the red rectangle, and support level at the blue, with overall tendency pointing upwards through the orange rectangles toward the Target Icon. A short at the red might be too bold for the swing trader even though the recent general move was downwards, from 133 to 127. The blue rectangle is also quite low, and there is the possibility of having a pivot point above it, without it ever being touched. This is a continuation of the previous Matrix project on this market. (Linked Idea)by nenUpdated 4
