Asia Session Prep — 21:00–08:00 UTC
The US closed with the same split tape it opened with: oil pushing higher (last read $98.58, +2.20% over eight hours) while equities wobbled, Treasury yields stayed jumpy, and crypto kept its own counsel — the CLARITY Act heads for a Senate vote with Coinbase–Moov and 1,000+ banks busy building stablecoin plumbing. Gold slipped (-0.68%) and Bitcoin drifted (-0.58%), so the risk complex didn't exactly throw a party.
Asia's calendar is deliberately low-key: New Zealand's BusinessNZ Services Index and Visitor Arrivals, RBA Assist Gov Hunter speaking, Japan's Revised Industrial Production, and Swiss PPI — all Low-tier. No CPI-style landmine; the session inherits the US mood rather than authoring a new one.
On the barometer, oil's higher-timeframe tilt is bullish (D1 and H4 up, H1 down), H4 RSI 63.9, price 98.58, but the card flags it extended and sitting just 0.1 ATR below the 98.63 ceiling — high in the range, so mind the air up there. Gold is bearish-clear on D1 and H4 with H1 up, squeezed between 4327.48 and 4345.41 — breakout on the table, direction unknown. EUR/USD leans bearish (RSI 39, EMA20 below EMA50) with a divergence warning against the trend; GBP/USD is boxed between 1.35214 and 1.35360. USD/JPY is bearish-clear on D1 and H4 with H1 mixed and RSI 39.2/42.7 — the one to mind. Keep sizes modest while the tape digests the US close.
