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 2026-10-15 12:02 UTC.

Good morning. The wires are split between record-chasing equity nerves and a central-bank gold bid running at a two-year high, while France's 31.4% stablecoin tax proposal keeps making the rounds and chipmakers take another round of punishment.

Today's US calendar is anything but quiet: Core PPI, PPI, Core Retail Sales, and Retail Sales all land in this window — four high-tier prints on the same afternoon — alongside Philly Fed, Unemployment Claims, the Empire State and Business Inventories reads, plus Crude Oil and Natural Gas Storage. FOMC's Hammack speaks, and the IMF meetings roll on. Canada chips in with Manufacturing and Wholesale Sales.

On the gauge, EUR/USD is BEARISH LEANING — D1 down, H4 and H1 mixed — and sits closer to the level above, with a 30-minute move already active. GBP/USD is NEUTRAL, also nearer the level above. USD/JPY leans BULLISH, closer to the level below, structure intact. Gold is BEARISH LEANING and sitting right at the level beneath. Oil leans BULLISH, nearer the level above. Bitcoin is BEARISH LEANING, wedged between two close levels, while Ethereum is BEARISH CLEAR and stretched, with its nearest level below far away. Watch how the inflation and retail prints land.
