Asia 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.

SESSION PREP · ASIA

What to watch in the Asia session

The Asian session (Sydney · Australia · Tokyo · China · Singapore) · updated 2026-10-13 21:02 UTC.

Good evening. The day that just ended was a chip-led one: South Korea's Kospi sank more than 7% on semiconductor selling, world stocks dipped, bonds were bid, and oil rose as Trump's comments stirred energy markets.

Asia's calendar is all low-tier prints — New Zealand visitor arrivals, Australia's MI Leading Index, Japan's M2, and China's CPI, PPI and trade balance — but the wires may not stay quiet: Lagarde, Bailey, Pill, Breeden and Macklem all speak during this window.

The gauge is mixed. EUR/USD is BEARISH LEANING, closer to the level above; GBP/USD is NEUTRAL, wedged between two close levels; USD/JPY is BULLISH LEANING, also boxed in. Gold reads BEARISH CLEAR across D1, H4 and H1, tucked between two close levels, while oil is BULLISH LEANING with about the same room above and below. Bitcoin is BEARISH LEANING with an active 30-minute move, Ethereum BEARISH LEANING and closer to the level above. Watch whether those tight zones give way.
