Repli du dollar marqué sur 24 heures, avec EUR/USD et GBP/USD au-dessus de leurs principales moyennes horaires et journalières. L’élan haussier est toutefois déjà très étiré sur EUR/USD, tandis que GBP/USD consolide après une forte impulsion. Aucun point d’entrée ne présente actuellement un rapport rendement-risque suffisamment défendable.

Maintien sans modification. Le cours reste au-dessus des moyennes mobiles à 20 et 50 heures et du seuil d’invalidation à 29670, tandis que la hausse sur 24 heures et le VIX faible préservent le scénario haussier. Le retour sous le prix d’entrée et l’échec à franchir la résistance de la semaine précédente réduisent toutefois la conviction. Le risque reste strictement borné, et la séance américaine fermée avec une qualité stale_market_closed ne permet pas de justifier une clôture exécutable sur des données fraîches.

Maintien sans modification. Le Nasdaq 100 reste au-dessus de ses moyennes mobiles à 20 et 50 heures ainsi que du seuil d’invalidation à 29670, tandis que la progression sur 24 heures et le faible niveau du VIX préservent le scénario de continuation. Le reflux sous le prix d’entrée et la résistance de la semaine précédente affaiblit toutefois l’élan. Le risque demeure étroitement borné et, avec une séance américaine fermée et des données stale_market_closed, aucune clôture ou mise à jour exécutable n’est justifiée.
HOLD^NDQ
Hold unchanged. Price remains above the 20-hour and 50-hour averages and above the 29670 invalidation level, while positive 24-hour momentum and low VIX preserve the continuation thesis. The pullback from prior-week resistance reduces conviction, but defined risk remains small. The US session is closed and market quality is stale_market_closed, so no executable close or fresh update is warranted.
HOLD^NDQ
Hold unchanged. Price has retreated below entry and prior-week resistance, but remains above the 20-hour and 50-hour averages and above the 29670 invalidation level. Positive 24-hour momentum and subdued VIX preserve the continuation thesis, while stop risk remains tightly bounded. The closed US session and stale_market_closed status preclude an actionable exit now.
HOLD^NDQ
Hold unchanged. The late-session pullback weakened momentum, but price remains above the 20-hour and 50-hour averages, above the prior-day high, and above the 29670 invalidation level. Sharply lower VIX and positive 24-hour momentum preserve the continuation thesis, while stop risk remains tightly bounded. The closed US session and stale_market_closed status preclude an actionable exit now.
HOLD^NDQ
Hold unchanged. The late-session retreat weakened momentum, but price remains above the 20-hour and 50-hour averages, above the prior-day high, and above the 29670 invalidation level. Falling VIX and positive 24-hour momentum still support the continuation thesis, while risk remains tightly bounded. The closed US session and stale_market_closed status also preclude an actionable exit now.
HOLD^NDQ
Hold unchanged. Nasdaq remains above its 20-hour and 50-hour averages and above the prior session's high, while positive 24-hour momentum and sharply lower VIX preserve the continuation thesis. The late-session retreat weakens conviction but has not breached the 29670 invalidation level; defined risk remains tightly bounded.
HOLD^NDQ
Hold unchanged. Despite the late-session retreat, Nasdaq 100 remains above its 20-hour and 50-hour averages and above the prior session's breakout area, while positive 24-hour momentum and sharply lower VIX preserve the continuation thesis. The 29670 stop remains appropriate and risk is tightly bounded; the closed session also prevents an actionable exit now.
HOLD^NDQ
Hold unchanged. Price remains above the prior-day high and the 20-hour and 50-hour averages, while positive 24-hour momentum and the sharp VIX decline preserve the continuation thesis. Consolidation below prior-week resistance has not invalidated the setup, and the existing 29670 stop keeps risk tightly bounded.
HOLD^NDQ
Hold unchanged. Price remains above the 20-hour and 50-hour averages and above the prior-day high, while positive 24-hour momentum and falling VIX preserve the continuation thesis. The 29670 stop remains appropriate below the breakout area, and the 30080 target still offers favorable defined reward relative to risk.

Choc dollar généralisé sur la séance américaine, et il est lisible sans ambiguïté : or à 4580,70 (+4,36% sur 24h, RSI 1h à 82,75, plus haut de la série horaire en clôture), 10 ans US à 4,653 (-5,3 bps), EUR/USD +0,86%, GBP/USD +0,53%, USD/JPY -0,93%. Trois paires et un métal qui pointent dans la même direction, c'est un mouvement de devise, pas du bruit d'instrument. Mais le contexte actions dément le réflexe risk-off : VIX à 14,89 (-6,47%, plus bas depuis une semaine), S&P 500 à 7707,98 (-0,11%) au-dessus de sa SMA50 journalière de 7531, Nasdaq 100 -0,52%, CAC -0,25%, DAX -0,21%. La volatilité actions baisse pendant que l'or explose et que le dollar cède : repricing dovish / défiance sur le billet vert, pas panique. Côté éligibilité, le champ est étroit. Les quatre indices sont tradables mais session fermée et données en statut stale_market_closed (staleness 5 535 s sur les US, 21 733 s sur les européens) : OPEN interdit. VIX, 10 ans, WTI et or non négociables en simulation, donc le seul instrument qui porte vraiment l'information du jour est hors de portée. Restent EUR/USD et GBP/USD, tous deux frais et en session asiatique ouverte. Deux données US moyennes demain à 12:30Z (Philly Fed, prévision 24,1 contre 41,4 précédent ; inscriptions chômage 210K), pas de blackout actif.

HOLD^SPX
US cash is shut until 2026-08-03T13:32Z and the SPX feed is unchanged from Friday's close (origin 2026-07-31T19:30Z, stale_market_closed), so neither an exit nor a data-informed stop amendment is executable or justified this slot. Mark 7489.72 vs entry 7478.38 = +31.78 USD, +0.16R, 0.20% of capital at risk. Premise intact: the entry was a reclaim of the 1d SMA50 (7470.45) and price still holds above it. Invalidation is two consecutive hourly closes below 7420; the lowest close since entry is 7483.45, ~63 points clear, with 1h SMA20 7420.23 and 1h SMA50 7419.09 beneath, and Friday's sequence 7486.79 / 7483.45 / 7498.18 / 7489.52 never approached it. The only genuinely new information is crude, and it extended further in my favour: WTI 79.79 is -5.76% on 24h, 1h RSI 30.8, back at its 1d SMA50 (79.62) after trading 84.67 Friday — a disinflationary impulse ~8h ahead of ISM Prices at 14:00Z (forecast 70.0 vs 73.0 prior), the specific catalyst this long's second leg needs with the 10Y at 4.745 and 1d RSI 66.8. Against it, USDJPY 156.39 at 1d RSI 30.5 is an ongoing carry unwind that often precedes equity de-risking, and gold holding 4115 leans the same way. But EUR (+0.07%) and GBP (-0.05%) are flat on 24h, so the dollar is not broadly weak — JPY-specific positioning, a caution flag rather than a standalone exit trigger. Stale VIX (15.99, below its 50d 17.45) and 10Y cannot arbitrate. Net offsetting, and I could not re-enter before the same reopen. I again decline to trail toward 7460: the sole incremental risk before 13:32Z is a gap, which a stop cannot fill through, so tightening buys no protection and merely raises the odds a routine open-auction wick converts an intact, profitable trade into a realised loss. Stop stays 7412 (below Friday's 7423.79 and 7421.78 lows and the 1h SMA50), 2.27x 1h ATR from spot; target 7575, first test 7525.94. A gap-down through 7470 not reclaimed within the first hour ends this regardless of where 7412 sits.

WTI has extended to 79.95, -5.61% on 24h with 1h RSI 29.1 and ~4% under its 1h SMA20 — a real disinflationary impulse into ISM Prices at 14:00Z (forecast 70.0 vs 73.0 previous), and the best news for a long that depends on rates relief. Against it, USDJPY 156.51 at 1d RSI 30.51 is a carry unwind that often front-runs equity de-risking, and firm gold at 4117 leans the same way. Stale VIX (15.99, below its 50d 17.45 and 200d 18.66) and 10Y (4.745) cannot arbitrate. Net offsetting, not decisive, and I could not re-enter before the same reopen.

Friday's closes 7486.79 / 7483.45 / 7498.18 / 7489.52 never tested it. New since my last review is overnight commodity and FX, not equity: WTI has extended its slide to 80.20 (-5.4% on 24h, 1h RSI 29.58, far under its 1h SMA20 of 83.44) and USDJPY has pushed to 156.36 (1h RSI 27.08, 1d RSI 30.51). These offset rather than jointly confirm. Crude down ~5% into an ISM Prices print forecast at 70.0 vs 73.0 previous is disinflationary and supports the rates-relief leg this long depends on — the best news for the position since entry. Against it, a yen bid this persistent is a carry unwind that often precedes equity de-risking, and I have no fresh VIX or 10Y to arbitrate between them. Neither is decisive enough to abandon a position I could not re-enter before the same reopen.

Mark 7489.72 vs entry 7478.38 = +31.78 USD, +0.16R. The premise is intact on the last available prints: the entry was a reclaim of the 1d SMA50 and price still holds above it at 7470.45.

Friday's closing sequence 7486.79 / 7483.45 / 7498.18 / 7489.52 never tested it. What is genuinely new since my last review is overnight, not in the equity feed: WTI has dropped from 84.67 to 80.57 (-4.7%) and USDJPY has broken to 156.11 (-0.90% on 24h, 1h RSI 24.51). I read those as offsetting rather than confirming. Cheaper crude into an ISM Prices print forecast at 70.0 vs 73.0 previous helps the rates-relief leg this long depends on; a sharp yen bid is a carry unwind that historically front-runs equity de-risking. Neither is strong enough alone to justify abandoning a position I could not re-enter until the same reopen, and I have no fresh VIX or 10Y print to arbitrate between them. I again decline to trail toward 7460: the only incremental risk before the open is a gap, which a stop cannot fill through, so tightening buys no protection and merely raises the odds a routine open-auction wick converts an intact trade into a realised loss.

Negatives stated 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 way against a long equity book; NDQ 1d RSI 45.54 with price ~3.6% under its SMA50 (29342) means growth is not confirming; USDJPY 157.16 at 1d RSI 28.23 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.

Friday's closing sequence 7486.79 / 7483.45 / 7498.18 / 7489.52 never tested it. VIX 15.99 is below its 50d (17.45) and 200d (18.66), and the 18.70 spike was repriced inside Friday's session rather than carried over the weekend. Negatives stated 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 way against long equity; NDQ 1d RSI 45.54 with price ~3.6% under its SMA50 (29342) means 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 before the open 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 the 1h SMA50), 2.27x 1h ATR from spot, 0.20% of capital. Target 7575; the prior week's high 7525.94 is the first real test. The live decision is Monday's auction with ISM at 14:00Z: a gap-down through 7470 not reclaimed within the first hour ends this on reclaim-failure logic regardless of where 7412 sits.
