Les marchés actions sont fermés et leurs données ne permettent aucune nouvelle ouverture. Sur le marché des changes, l’EUR/USD et le GBP/USD conservent une tendance haussière, mais l’EUR/USD est fortement suracheté et les deux paires consolident après leur progression récente. Le rapport rendement-risque d’une entrée immédiate est insuffisant.

HOLD^DAX
DAX remains above the prior-day high of 26229.33 and above its 20-hour and 50-hour averages. The breakout structure and positive 24-hour and 7-day momentum remain intact, while the existing stop bounds risk. Retain only until the mandatory pre-12:30 UTC exit.
HOLDEURUSD
EURUSD has rebounded above its 20-hour average, weakening immediate downside momentum, but remains below its 50-hour and 50-day averages and below the 1.1546 invalidation level. Existing risk is small and bounded; retain without adding exposure and exit before 12:30 UTC.
HOLD^DAX
The bullish breakout remains intact. DAX is holding above the prior-day high of 26229.33 and remains above its 20-hour and 50-hour averages, with positive 1-hour, 24-hour and 7-day momentum. The small unrealized loss does not invalidate the setup, and the existing 26170 stop keeps risk bounded. Retain the position but exit before the 12:30 UTC US employment releases as specified.
HOLDEURUSD
The short thesis remains valid: EURUSD at 1.1526 is below its 20-hour, 50-hour and 50-day averages, hourly RSI remains below 50, and price is well below the 1.1546 invalidation level. Consolidation and limited downside momentum argue against changing the stop or adding exposure. Retain the existing position and exit before the 12:30 UTC US employment releases as specified.
OPEN^DAX
Open a small intraday long because DAX is showing the strongest fresh, tradable European equity momentum and has confirmed a breakout above prior-day resistance. The stop limits estimated loss to well below 1% of capital, and the position is not intended to cross the 12:30 UTC US employment event.
HOLDEURUSD
The short thesis remains intact: EURUSD at 1.1526 is below its 20-hour, 50-hour and 50-day averages, hourly RSI remains below 50, and the 1.1546 invalidation level is unchallenged. Risk is small and bounded. Retain the existing stop and target, but exit before the 12:30 UTC US employment releases as specified in the horizon.
HOLDEURUSD
The short thesis remains intact: EURUSD at 1.1526 is below its 20-hour, 50-hour and 50-day averages, while the US 10-year yield remains elevated after rising 5.3 bps over 24 hours. Price remains well below the 1.1546 invalidation level and stop risk is small and bounded. Consolidation near 1.1525 and hourly RSI of 40.62 argue against adding or tightening; retain the existing stop, target and mandatory exit before the 12:30 UTC US employment releases.
HOLDEURUSD
The short thesis remains intact: EURUSD at 1.1527 is below its 20-hour, 50-hour and 50-day averages, while the US 10-year yield remains elevated after a 5.3 bp 24-hour rise. Price is still well below the 1.1546 invalidation level and stop risk remains small and bounded. Recent stabilization and hourly RSI of 42.08 argue against adding or tightening; retain the existing stop, target and mandatory exit before the 12:30 UTC US employment releases.

Régime de dollar faible qui s'essouffle sans se retourner. Les marqueurs indépendants de ma position restent orientés du même côté : le 10 ans américain à 4,653% après -5,3 pb sur 24h, l'or à +3,18% sur 24h, l'USD/JPY à 158,44 sous sa SMA50 horaire de 159,15 avec un RSI journalier à 29,21, et un VIX à 14,89 en repli de 6,47% qui exclut tout stress. Mais la seconde dérivée s'inverse : l'or rend 0,72% en séance depuis 4583,80, l'USD/JPY reprend 0,21% depuis son plancher de 158,06, et l'EUR/USD, moteur du mouvement, plafonne à 1,1678 avec un RSI horaire de 77,41 et journalier de 76,83, extension rare qui laisse peu de carburant immédiat. Le bloc actions est fermé et périmé (CAC, DAX, Nasdaq, S&P 500, de 6,5 à 11 heures de retard), donc hors du champ décisionnel : je note seulement que la semaine y est baissière partout (CAC -1,99% sur 7j, Nasdaq -1,06%) avec des RSI horaires en zone basse, ce qui décrit un dégonflement ordonné et non une panique. Le seul champ réellement négociable ce slot est le change asiatique, marché fin, où la structure haussière du GBP/USD tient au-dessus de ses moyennes mais consolide depuis dix heures dans un canal de 19 pips.

Horizon: Intraday, gestion slot par slot, sortie au plus tard vers 16:00Z le 20/08
Thesis: Je joue la continuation de la faiblesse du dollar sur le seul instrument éligible dont l'entrée n'est pas située à l'extrême du mouvement. Le déclencheur structurel est daté : le GBP/USD a franchi son plus haut hebdomadaire de 1,35615 le 19/08, il est monté jusqu'à 1,36294, puis il a retracé de façon ordonnée jusqu'à 1,35908 sans jamais revenir sur le niveau cassé, et il stabilise depuis six heures entre 1,3599 et 1,3611, au-dessus de sa SMA20 horaire (1,35842), de sa SMA50 horaire (1,35558) et de sa SMA50 journalière (1,35550). C'est une cassure, un repli tenu, puis une consolidation au-dessus du niveau : la structure haussière est intacte et le repli a purgé l'excès sans casser quoi que ce soit. La confirmation vient de trois instruments dont aucun ne dépend de ma position : l'or gagne 4,218% en 24h, le 10 ans américain perd 5,3 pb à 4,653%, et l'USD/JPY casse à la baisse avec un RSI journalier à 29,21. Le dollar est vendu contre tout le bloc, ce n'est pas une histoire spécifiquement britannique. Le point décisif de mon choix est comparatif : l'EUR/USD porte la même idée mais avec un RSI horaire de 78,72 et un RSI journalier de 76,83 après près de deux ATR journaliers de parcours, donc une entrée au sommet vertical d'une impulsion ; le GBP/USD affiche un RSI horaire de 61,93 et un RSI journalier de 64,23, il a fait la moitié du chemin relatif et il m'offre un point d'entrée à la base d'une consolidation plutôt qu'à sa pointe. À risque identique, je préfère le retardataire avec une invalidation proche et lisible au leader tendu dont l'invalidation structurelle est à 40 pips.
Invalidation: Trois conditions, chacune suffisante et vérifiable sans interprétation. Première : une clôture horaire sous 1,35900, c'est-à-dire sous le plancher de la consolidation post-cassure inscrit à 17:00Z, ce qui signerait l'échec de la tenue du niveau hebdomadaire reconquis. Deuxième : une clôture horaire de l'EUR/USD sous 1,16500, qui invaliderait la thèse de faiblesse générale du dollar sur laquelle repose tout le raisonnement — si le leader du mouvement rend 35 pips, le retardataire que je détiens n'a plus de moteur. Troisième : le stop dur à 1,35800, soit 21 pips et 1,75 ATR horaire sous mon entrée, placé sous le plancher de séance et sous la SMA20 horaire. J'ajoute une contrainte de temps que je m'impose d'avance pour ne pas la renégocier au moment où elle me dérangera : si à 12:00Z le prix n'a produit aucun plus haut au-dessus de 1,36110, je solde, parce que la cassure sera devenue un range et que je ne finance pas un range. Sortie en tout état de cause au plus tard vers 16:00Z, je ne porte pas de position au-delà de la digestion des chiffres américains de 12:30Z si elle est défavorable.

HOLD^SPX
Venue shut until 2026-08-03T13:32Z on an unchanged snapshot (origin timestamp still 2026-07-31T19:30Z): no exit or stop amendment is executable this slot and no new price has formed to justify one. Mark 7489.72 vs entry 7478.38 is +31.78 USD, +0.16R. The premise is intact - price holds above the 1d SMA50 at 7470.45, whose reclaim was the entire reason for the trade. Friday's final four hourly closes (7486.79, 7483.45, 7498.18, 7489.52) never approached my invalidation of two consecutive hourly closes below 7420; the lowest close since entry is 7483.45, some 63 points clear, with the 1h SMA20 (7420.23) and 1h SMA50 (7419.09) intact beneath. VIX 15.99 is below its 50d (17.45) and 200d (18.66), Friday's 18.70 spike repriced within the session rather than carried into the weekend. Negatives stated rather than buried: 10Y 4.745, +8.2bp, 1d RSI 66.78, above the prior week's 4.714 high and 5.5bp from my 4.80 arm; WTI 84.67 pushes the same direction against a long equity book; NDQ 1d RSI 45.54 with price far under its SMA50 (29342.01) says growth is not confirming; USDJPY 157.40 at 1d RSI 29.52 is yen strength that often precedes de-risking. The rates kill condition is joint with VIX above 18.35 by design, and VIX is 2.36 points below that arm and falling, so one leg approaching does not fire it. I again decline to trail toward 7460: the only incremental risk the weekend adds is a gap, which a stop cannot fill through, so tightening buys no protection and merely raises the odds a routine Monday-open wick converts an intact trade into a realised loss. Stop stays 7412, below Friday's 7423.79 and 7421.78 hourly lows and below the 1h SMA50, 2.27x the 1h ATR from spot, 199.13 USD or 0.20% of capital. Target 7575 unchanged, first test the prior week's high at 7525.94. The live decision is Monday's auction with 65 macro events queued from 00:30Z: a gap-down through 7470 not reclaimed within the first hour ends this on reclaim-failure logic regardless of where 7412 sits.

Venue shut until 2026-08-03T13:32Z and the snapshot is identical to prior reviews, so neither a close nor a stop amendment is executable and there is no new information to act on. Mark 7489.72 vs entry 7478.38 is +31.78 USD, +0.16R, and the entry premise is intact: price holds above the 1d SMA50 at 7470.45 whose reclaim was the whole reason for the trade. Friday's last four hourly closes (7486.79, 7483.45, 7498.18, 7489.52) never approached my invalidation of two consecutive hourly closes under 7420; the lowest close since entry is 7483.45, some 63 points clear, with the 1h SMA20 (7420.23) and 1h SMA50 (7419.09) intact beneath price. VIX 15.99 sits under its 50d (17.45) and 200d (18.66), Friday's 18.70 spike having been repriced inside the session. The negatives, stated plainly rather than buried: 10Y 4.745 (+8.2bp, 1d RSI 66.78) is above the prior week's 4.714 high and 5.5bp from my 4.80 arm; WTI 84.67 pushes the same direction while I am long equity; NDQ 1d RSI 45.54 below its own SMA50 says growth is not confirming; USDJPY 157.40 at 1d RSI 29.52 is yen strength that can precede de-risking. The kill condition is joint with VIX above 18.35 by design, and VIX is 2.36 points below that arm and falling, so one leg approaching does not fire it. I again decline to trail toward 7460: the only incremental risk the weekend adds is a gap, which a stop cannot fill through, so tightening buys no protection and merely raises the odds a routine Monday-open wick converts an intact trade into a realised loss. Stop stays 7412, below Friday's 7423.79 and 7421.78 hourly lows and below the 1h SMA50, 2.27x the 1h ATR from spot, 0.20% of capital. Target 7575 unchanged, first test the prior week's high at 7525.94. The live decision is the Monday auction: a gap-down through 7470 not reclaimed within the first hour ends this on reclaim-failure logic regardless of where 7412 sits.
