SGDHKD Chart Analysis Part 2

It is known that Hong Kong Dollar is pegged to US dollar.

I am dedicating this analysis to my fellow Singaporeans and my friends from Hong Kong.

I have updated the chart of SGDHKD chart for your reference whether you are a traveller or having a business in hong kong or a fellow trader and investor trading in Hang Seng Indices, stocks and currencies.

In the chart, a fan is observed with an array of chart formations, ranging from falling wedge to symmetric triangle to ascending triangle and a potential rounding bottom chart formation, further weakness is seen in the Hong Kong Dollar having the pegged relationship with US dollar.

Tourism Industry in Hong Kong is set to boost in the year 2019 having a weaker Hong Kong Dollar and residents of Hong Kong are going to feel inflationary pressure due to a weaker Hong Kong dollar importing and Consumer Price Index (CPI) is forecast to increase dramatically.

With reference to the chart attached for SGDHKD currency pair, 6.25 is a resistance which is hard to break easily. There is an opportunity for swing trade setup to 6.25 target.

India Sensex Index Analysis

I have not cover Indian Stock Index and now I dedicate an outlook into Sensex to my Indian readers, a look into one of the emerging market BRICs - India Sensex Market.

One of the Technical Analysis experts Mr. Donovan Ang suggest that we are in the expansionary phase of the bull run currently in the 50 percentile of the bull market which will see the bull market ends sometime plus minus 2028, a whopping of 10 years.

A key takeaway of recent US Mid Term Elections where the republicans lose house of representatives to the democrats which we as the traders and investors may see a repeat of the fiscal cliff happened in the ex President Obama's Administration where parliamentary gridlocks of opposing bills result in government shutdowns. Will these events unfold into year 2019 & beyond derailed the bull market or it will be a slow bull which is going to last into year 2028 where there are many walls of worry along the way.

Maecro Economic Environment Outlook

A look into Baltic Dry Index (BDI), Dr. Copper and Crude Oil (WTI) charts suggest global economy is on the expansionary phase where there commodities seen rising prices due to high demand. An economy which is e-revolution, triple Es - Electronics, Electrical and Engineering that drives the new modern economy, see an influx of new E-products from bitcoin mining rigs use to mine bitcoins, Electric vehicle reduce the consumption of crude oil (fossil fuel), Electric Scooters and Bikes, use of robotics to enhance productivity in the service industries. All these consume high amount of electricity.

How does the utilities provider able to provide seamless delivery of electricity to the end consumers by not experiencing disruptions using only source of energy or is going to employ an array of hybrid source of energy ranging from Crude Oil (fossil fuel), renewable energy like wind mills, solar and turbine.

US Mid Term Election - 6 Nov 2018

It is observed that the US Mid Term Election would bring lots of volatility to the financial markets.
Generally, I would not see a massive correction taking place after US mid term elections for we are in a Capricorn effect leading into year end where history suggest between months of October to January is positive for equities and financial markets.

Currently it is observed that the financial markets has priced in a democrats win on the house of representative with USD strengthening, and the eve of US mid term election where global financial markets see a mixture of geographic location stock exchanges register positive and negative performance.

BBC polls on US mid term elections suggest that democrats are poised to win on the house of representative. Coincidentally that performance of USD is strengthening as a result and is pegged to a democrats win and vice versa of USD performance is pegged to a Republican win.

Gold would see a repeat of US presidential election in Nov 2016, a big move should USD is weakening with a Republican win.
