More vessels will be deployed in the coming months. According to EBR, the patrol vessel, from the Spanish Civil Guard, began operations off the French coast this week, working in conjunction with reconnaissance aircraft deployed over the English Channel since 2021. The agency emphasized that its mission is limited to supporting French search and rescue operations and does not include intercepting migrants at sea. The patrol vessel will help France gain a more comprehensive understanding of maritime dynamics, detecting, identifying, and tracking small vessels, and transmitting precise information to French authorities in real time. EBR stated that more vessels from other EU member states will join the operation in the coming months.On September 5, U.S. Central Command issued a statement saying that on September 5, after the Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) launched ballistic missiles at two U.S. Navy warships patrolling in regional waters, U.S. Central Command forces attacked three Iranian oil tankers. A U.S. aircraft carrier and a guided-missile destroyer successfully evaded multiple unprovoked attacks by Iran. There were no U.S. casualties. Following the failed Iranian attacks, U.S. Central Command permanently sank the IRGC oil tanker "Downy" near Harqa Island and the oil tanker "Stark 1" near Jask. The U.S. military also completely destroyed the unloaded oil tanker "Kailo" (also known as "Noxson") in the Gulf of Oman. After the crew was ordered to abandon ship, the U.S. military struck several key parts of the ship, rendering it unable to continue sailing. These three Iranian oil tankers belonged to a secret network worth billions of dollars that financed the IRGC and its regional proxies. Iran was unable to protect these tankers.

The weakest major currencies overnight were the JPY and CHF, while the US dollar continued to gain ground overnight, albeit more slowly than during the US session. The BOJ is unlikely to take action considering that the inflation rate in Japan reached its highest point in 7.5% of the year and is predicted to peak in Q4. This served as the perfect impetus for additional USD/JPY support overnight.

 

DAX 4-hour chart: As we approach the final trading day of the week, the DAX is on track to form a 2-bar bearish reversal pattern on the weekly chart at present levels. As it would be forming close below trend resistance, projected from its record high, the pattern could possibly have some significance. It remains to be seen if it represents a meaningful swing high, but at the very least, we favor a deeper pullback from current levels.

 

Although prices are stabilizing in the bottom part of this week's range following a sharp decline from the highs, the 4-hour chart is still above trend support, and the bias is for a negative break. When the 13,605 support is broken, it is assumed that the bearish trend will continue and the 14,440 - 13,500 support zone comes into focus. If that zone is also broken, a run for the 13,330 support zone is then made possible.
