by on Jun 10, 2015 •The bond markets are continuing to drive this weakness in risk asset markets here.

Weekly Technical Analysis – “SP500 2065 & 2125 Key Levels, $ Top Still Ahead” 12th May15 – V2
by on May 12, 2015 •Volatility across asset markets continues to be the theme.

Weekly Technical Analysis – “SP500 +2077 Bullish, Europe, Buy the Dip” 05th May15

by on Apr 15, 2015 •We have seen some “choppy” price action in both equities and FX in the last week or so but the larger trend directions are the prevailing themes for price.
