Investors pending on geopolitical tensions and turbulence in oil markets

by

The weekly opening is being conditioned by this weekend’s attacks with drones against oil production facilities in Saudi Arabia and the disappointing economic data from China, two factors that triggered risk aversion.

Texas WTI oil prices rose 16% at the weekly opening, after it was known that attacks on Saudi facilities will reduce production by 50%, which is 5% of world production. It is the biggest interruption in the supply of crude oil in history, which also caused a historic rise in oil prices.

The president of the United States, Donald Trump, authorized the use of the country’s emergency reserves to guarantee the oil supply and also he said the country will respond to the attacks he attributes to Iran. For its part, Saudi Arabia has said that it is prepared to restore half of the production this Monday.

Keltner channels – How can we use them?

by

Keltner channels are a technical indicator consisting of three lines: a central line that corresponds to an exponential moving average, and two lines, upper and lower, calculated as a deviation from the central line based on the ATR (Average True Range). If you know the Bollinger Bands you will see that both are similar indicators, with the difference that the bollinger bands use a simple moving average (SMA) as the center line and the bands are calculated as standard deviation of this SMA. In addition, the introduction of the ATR for the bands calculation in Keltner channels gives it the feature of being an indicator based on volatility, as well as being a softer indicator than Bollinger Bands.

Keltner channels, based on an exponential moving average, are a trend indicator, a trend dictated by the inclination of the channel. The most prominent use of Keltner channels as a trend indicator is the identification of trend changes when channel breakouts occur as well as the identification of range phases in the market (flat trend). The areas determined by the upper and lower lines can be used to identify overbought and oversold areas.

The development of Keltner channels is attributed to Chester Keltner who introduced in his book How to Make Money in Commodities (1960) the “Ten-Day Moving Average” rule, considered as the original version of Keltner channels. This original version used SMA instead of EMA. The current version of this indicator is attributed to Linda Bradford back in the 80s of the 20th century who introduced the ATR in the calculation of the channel bands.

The US imposed tariffs of 15% as of Sunday on a series of Chinese products that include footwear and some appliances such as smart watches and televisions, while Beijing imposed new tariffs on soybeans and US crude.

China reacted to the entry into force of US tariffs on Chinese exports with new tariffs on US products between 5% and 10%. However, the Asian giant has responded cautiously to Washington’s taxes, taxing only one third of the 5,000 expected products.

Bearish opening of the week after the resurgence of the commercial war

by

Asian stock markets began the last week of August with sharp declines due to escalating trade tensions between the United States and China, which weighed on confidence in the global economy, caused a stampede of stock market investors, and an increase in the demand for safe assets such as government bonds and gold.

The yields of the 10-year US Treasury debt fell to their lowest level since mid-2016, while gold reached its highest level since April 2013, after China announced the imposition of new tariffs on American products worth $75 billion.

The president of the United States, Donald Trump, responded immediately by announcing additional tariffs of 550 billion dollars on Chinese products. In addition, Trump said on Twitter that he had ordered the large companies in his country to seek alternatives to China immediately and to re-manufacture their products at home.
