London 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 · LONDON

What to watch in the London session

The London session (Europe open · the liquidity hour) · updated 2026-10-14 08:02 UTC.

Good morning. The chip sell-off that dragged South Korea's Kospi down more than 7% is still the backdrop, with world stocks dipping and bonds bid as AI fatigue lingers over semiconductors.

London's calendar leans toward speakers rather than prints: ECB President Lagarde and FOMC Member Bowman both take the microphone, alongside a German 30-year bond auction and the EU Economic Summit. China's M2 and new loans round out the low-tier data.

The gauge itself is a mixed bag. EUR/USD is BEARISH LEANING with D1 and H4 both down, sitting closer to the level above; GBP/USD is BULLISH LEANING on an H1 up read, also nearer its upper level. USD/JPY reads NEUTRAL — D1 up, H4 down — while Gold is BEARISH LEANING, wedged between two close levels. Oil is BULLISH LEANING with structure intact, Bitcoin NEUTRAL and sitting right at the nearest level above, and Ethereum BEARISH CLEAR across D1 and H4. Watch whether those tight zones give way once the speakers start.
