Deutsche Bank research analyst Michael Hsueh stated in a report that "the Fed's repricing, coupled with strong US macroeconomic data, is the main reason for the decline in gold prices."

Not every long wick is a valid kangaroo tail. A good setup needs more than a candle — it needs structure, space, and context. In this chart I highlight both valid and invalid kangaroo tails to show beginners exactly what to look for.
Valid setups share the same characteristics:
• Strong tail
• Body closes near the extreme
• Price reaches a clear zone
• Market hasn’t traded there for a while
• There is clean room to the left
These conditions show rejection with space for price to move.

USDJPY: Tight Range, Big Breakout Coming – Bulls Eye 150.80In recent weeks, USDJPY has been one of the most frustrating pairs to trade.
Since early August, the pair has fluctuated inside a very narrow range between 146.70 and 148.50 — less than 1.5% of movement.
However, such tight consolidations rarely last. They usually precede strong moves, and in my opinion, this breakout is more likely to come to the upside.
Looking at the broader picture:
