US DOLLAR TECHNICAL ANALYSIS – Prices stalled to consolidate gains after establishing yet another five-year high ahead of the much-anticipated US Employment report. A daily close above the 38.2% Fibonacci expansionat 11457 exposes the 50% level at 11511. Alternatively, a reversal below the 23.6% Fib at 11391 clears the way for a test of the 14.6% expansion at 11350.



S&P 500 TECHNICAL ANALYSIS – Prices paused to consolidate, with negative RSI divergence warning of ebbing upside momentum and hinting a turn lower may be ahead. A drop below the 2040.10-49.10 area marked by the 14.6% Fibonacci retracement and the December 1 low exposes the 2016.80-22.10 zone (23.6% level, September 19 high). Alternatively, a move above the 2075.90-86.60 region (November 26 high, 14.6% Fib expansion) targets the 23.6% expansion at 2109.80.



GOLD TECHNICAL ANALYSIS – Prices are in digestion mode below key trend line resistance guiding the down trend since early July. A break above this barrier (now at 1216.16) exposes the 50% Fibonacci retracement at 1237.59. Alternatively, a reversal below the 23.6% level at 1180.84 targets the 14.6% Fib at 1161.49.



CRUDE OIL TECHNICAL ANALYSIS – Prices look poised to continue lower after breaching support below the 70.00 figure. A daily close below the 38.2% Fibonacci expansion at 67.63 exposes the 50% level at 65.96. Alternatively, a move above the 23.6% Fib at 69.68 targets the 14.6% expansion at 70.95.
