While a subconscious market reaction to risk aversion is understandable, geopolitical developments rarely have a lasting impact on the market unless they result in significant economic consequences. A key factor is the speed of conflict resolution; the Trump administration has an incentive to end the conflict as quickly as possible before the upcoming midterm elections. Given OPEC+s decision to increase production, oil prices may also be suppressed.Iranian Foreign Minister Araqchi called on the United Nations to take "immediate, concrete and effective measures".March 2nd - According to the Economic Times of India, India faces a potential shortage of gold and rough diamonds as regional tensions escalate following the US and Israels strikes against Iran, and the closure of UAE airspace has disrupted supplies transported via Dubai.

Market Internals (FTSE)


Our research did not fare well in yesterday's price movement. All of Tuesday's gains were reversed as prices pulled back to (and fell under) the 7575 support level. Nonetheless, it maintained above Tuesday's low and recouped around two-thirds of the day's losses, forming a hammer candle at the closing. A break of the low confirms the formation as a 1-bar bearish reversal (hanging man), whilst a break of the high confirms the formation as a bullish hammer.

The Fed's weight continues to bear down on commodity currencies.


At the moment, we appear to be witnessing a lot of countertrend movements in the currency markets. Commodity FX has continued to retreat from highs as it becomes clear that the RBA and RBNZ are following the Fed's hawkish path, with the AUD and NZD among the weakest majors today.


AUD/USD has reversed all of this week's gains and is on the verge of forming a bearish pinbar at present levels. The week's high failed to break through the upper Keltner channel, and a quick look at lower timeframe momentum implies the week might be closed at present levels. But it doesn't rule out the possibility of a rally ahead of a lower-level breach.
