US Session's Technical Barometer

What this reads: the bigger picture for this session — daily, 4-hour and 1-hour trends with 4-hour and 1-hour momentum, read when this briefing was written. It changes slowly and is not a forecast. Market Pulse reads only the last hour or so, so the two can disagree: a short bounce inside a downtrend can read bullish there and bearish here.

What to watch in the US session

The US session (New York open · the afternoon drive) · updated 2026-10-09 12:02 UTC.

Good afternoon. The overnight mood was mixed — crude slipping back, the stablecoin news cycle still rolling with Samsung's wallet rollout, France's tax push and ESMA's non-MiCA deadline — and the bull market's four-year birthday is getting its share of column inches.

This session brings the data. Canadian Employment Change and Unemployment Rate land as high-tier releases, the US gets Prelim UoM Consumer Sentiment and Inflation Expectations, and FOMC Member Collins speaks on the low-tier side. Plenty of scheduled texture for a Friday.

On the gauge, the dollar pairs are pulling in different directions. EUR/USD reads NEUTRAL — D1 down, H4 and H1 up — with price closer to the level below (0.5 ATR) than the one above (1.0 ATR). GBP/USD has turned BEARISH LEANING, D1 down with H4 and H1 mixed, sitting just 0.2 ATR above support. USD/JPY is BULLISH LEANING, D1 up against H4 down and H1 up, wedged between two close levels. Gold is NEUTRAL, right at the level above with 1.2 ATR to the one below. Oil stays BULLISH LEANING on D1 and H4 with H1 down. Bitcoin is BEARISH CLEAR across D1 and H4 with H1 mixed, sitting right at support. Watch how those nearby levels hold as the US takes over.
