Bitcoin is forming a small bear flag (a pause before further downside), with an important low that needs to hold. Natural gas remains above its pivot line. Oil pulled back today, and a retest of that level carries added news driven risk. Both gold and silver look set for a technical bounce (a small reversal), with gold near its 50 percent retracement level (a point where reversals often occur). A few earnings moved stocks sharply, with one company falling on weak guidance while a hardware company rose on strong results. The dollar continues to grind higher, though the broader structure still leans lower. The S&P 500 remains above its key pivot level, keeping a neutral to bullish stance. The 10 year Treasury yield is near a resistance zone, and a break above could test the 5 percent level (Trading Economics). The biggest headline is the ADP jobs data, which came in below expectations, tempering hopes for Friday's official jobs number ahead of the Fed's rate decision (CNBC).
