On April 26, according to the Wall Street Journal, in order to simplify the negotiations on reciprocal tariffs, US negotiating officials plan to use a new framework developed by the Office of the United States Trade Representative (USTR), which lists major categories of negotiations, such as tariffs and quotas, non-tariff trade barriers, digital trade, product origin principles, economic security and other commercial issues. In these categories, US officials will put forward specific requirements for individual countries, but people familiar with the matter emphasized that this document may also be adjusted at any time. People familiar with the matter said that the United States initial plan is to negotiate with 18 major trading partners in turn over the next two months. The initial plan is to alternately participate in the talks with six countries per week for three weeks (six countries in the first week, another six countries in the second week, and another six countries in the third week) until the deadline of July 8. If US President Trump does not extend the 90-day suspension period he set by then, those countries that cannot reach an agreement will begin to face reciprocal tariffs.On April 26, after the United States announced additional tariffs on goods from many countries, Peruvian business people expressed concerns that the US governments extreme measures would disrupt the global trade order and may even trigger a global economic recession.

This is the first time the Fed has conducted a semi-annual survey on financial risks since Trump returned to the White House. 73% of respondents said that global trade risks are their biggest concern, more than double the proportion reported in November. Half of the respondents believe that overall policy uncertainty is the most worrying issue, an increase from the same period last year. The survey also found that issues related to recent market turmoil have received more attention, with 27% of respondents worried about the functioning of the U.S. Treasury market, up from 17% last fall.

We track the number of markets, asset classes, and global money movements at Technical Traders in search of insights that can aid us in our hunt for ETF gains. When we compare foreign exchange to the SPY (S&P; P 500), we can see that FX has likewise been in a risk-on environment for the previous two years.


We recently examined volatility using the CBOE Volatility Index, or VIX. However, some other methods or instruments can be used to examine asset prices.


The Flow of Money Around the World Has Been High-Risk.


The current spike in inflation in foreign exchange has paralleled that seen in energy, metals, food commodities, and real estate. The Australian, New Zealand, and Canadian dollars are commonly referred to as commodity currencies. Due to its global status as one of the significant oil and gas producers, the US dollar has benefited to some extent.


A currency like the Australian dollar will often see worldwide money inflows in a risk-on environment. On the other hand, in a risk-off climate, money flows out of risky currencies like the Australian dollar and into safe-haven currencies like the Swiss franc, Japanese yen, and the US dollar.


As global investors seek returns, money has recently been re-allocated to other assets. Capital inflows have also boosted the forex markets. Over the last two years, beginning with the Covid lows in March 2020, the SPY has gone from a -30 percent loss to a +50 percent gain in early January.

Interestingly, the AUDJPY (Australian dollar vs. Japanese yen) rose from -15 percent to more than +20 percent within the same timeframe, a total swing of 35 percent. However, how do we use this data to determine where we are in the market cycle right now? Let us go over this procedure together to discover what signs the FX market might offer to help us choose and trade ETFs.


Daily Chart of AUD/JPY vs. SPY


GBP/JPY Reacts to Upper Channel Resistance of 6 Years The GBPJPY (British pound vs. Japanese yen) tends to mimic the SPY. Therefore, we will conduct a quick breakdown of the GBPJPY.


The monthly chart below shows that the GBPJPY reacts well to its 72-month or 6-year upper and lower channels. The GBPJPY hit bottom in 2011 and has since risen to its 6-year lower channel.


The GBPJPY then formed a head and shoulders top formation over 12 months at the 6-year upper channel between 2015 and 2016. It is worth noting that the top's head was produced at the Fibonacci 161.8 percent of the GBPJPY all-time low, and the shoulders were made at the 166.6 percent of the GBPJPY all-time low.


The 2016 decrease lasted 17 months, and the 2017 rebound lasted 17 months. The 2019-20 dip lasted 26 months, and the 2020-21 rise has only taken 26 months to complete. Note that the indicator counts both the low and high months in its counts. The essential thing here is that the GBPJPY has been replicating its initial price wave recently.


The 2016 and 2017 lows were half of the GBPJPY's all-time high. However, the 2020 low was also in the 6-year lower channel.


After a 26-bar (month) surge, the GBPJPY is currently reacting to its 6-year upper channel.


It is vital to understand that the purpose of this post is to provide us with insights into some alternative research to challenge us to look for pricing indications. Time will tell whether this research is correct, but if the price continues to react at these levels, we should conclude that market psychology or trend is shifting.
