Grain market:

The cereal market went up a week after the publication of the USDA report. The growth does not look strong yet, but we can already state that the bearish reaction to the information about the volumes of the new harvest has passed. Further, market participants will assess whether consumption will grow or not in the fall and winter. Most likely, states will increase their own stocks amid uncertainty with COVID-19, which will support prices. More globally, we note: if we take into account that the population on Earth is growing at a rate of almost 3 children per second, then an increase in food consumption is inevitable.

On September 22, on Wednesday, a regular meeting of the Fed will take place. The slowdown in US inflation and the sharp decline in the number of new jobs created in August tell us that there will be no reason for Mr. Powell to raise the rate and roll back the quantitative easing program.

In the current environment, the dollar may strengthen against other currencies. At the same time, we note that currency pairs on FOREX can measure against each other by the degree of their own emptiness, but this tug-of-war should not lead to a decrease in the cost of minerals and agricultural goods. In the current situation, even in the event of an increase in the rate in America, which is not even discussed at the moment, the fall in prices for a commodity group will be regarded as the last provocation of the current elites against the background of flooding old problems with new money.

By reading our projections, you could have made money in the natural gas market by going up from 3.650 to 5.400 per 1 million British thermal units. Also, you could make money on the RTS Index futures by taking a move up from 165,000 to 175,000.

Energy market:

The oil market is stable. It is possible that in winter Europe and the United States will have an increased demand for any type of fuel. Fear of cold weather will support oil prices in the medium term. At the moment there is a chance to reach the level of $ 80.00 per barrel of Brent oil. Climbing higher will be extremely difficult.

USD/RUB:

Elections in Russia. In the event of a significant redistribution of seats between parties in the State Duma, the ruble may react with a fall. If there are no significant changes, the situation on the foreign exchange market will remain stable.

Strengthening the dollar against other currencies will be difficult if we do not hear from the Fed on Wednesday hints to curtail the program to buy back assets of $ 120 billion per month.

On the other hand, what is 120 billion, when the Biden administration wants to scrape together 3.5 trillion on bridges, roads, child benefits and villas in California, no, villas not for children, villas for themselves.

In 100 dollar bills, 3.5 trillion is 35 thousand tons of colored paper, taking into account that 1 million dollars is 10 kilograms. The advantage of electronic money is that at least there is no need to cut down trees.

Gas-Oil. ICE

Sale: no.

Support — 4.226. Resistance — 5.650.

Gold. CME Group

Growth scenario: good shopping area. With Elliott Wave, the market is charged to move higher with the first target at 1920.

Falling scenario: the US Federal Reserve is unlikely to surprise the market with strong rhetoric on Wednesday. The bet on falling gold is extremely risky. We don’t open the new shorts, but keep the old ones.

Recommendations:

Purchase: now. Stop: 1740. Target: 2060. Whoever is in the position from 1760, keep the stop at 1740. Target: 2060.

Support — 1744. Resistance — 1781.

EUR/USD

Growth scenario: the week ended at attractive buying levels. Let’s go to the long.

Recommendations:

Purchase: now. Stop: 1.1712. Target: 1.2100.

Sale: no. Those who are in the position from 1.1900, move the stop to 1.1890. Target: 1.1060. Support — 1.1717. Resistance — 1.1908.

USD/RUB

Growth scenario: the dollar strengthened slightly at the end of the week, but it is too early to talk about a change in sentiment. Nevertheless, those who wish can buy if the pair rises above 73.00.

Falling scenario: we will continue to hold the short opened a month ago from 73.90. Strengthening the Fed’s policy in the near future is questionable.

Recommendations:

Purchase: in case of growth above 73.00. Stop: 72.40. Target: 80.00.

Sale: no. Anyone in the position from 73.90, move the stop to 73.67. Target: 67.60.

Support — 72.23. Resistance — 73.53.

RTSI

Growth scenario: the US stock market fell on Friday. Negative sentiment will most likely spread to other sites as early as Monday. Most likely we will face a decline. We do not buy.

Recommendations:

Purchase: no.

Sale: now and when climbing to 175000. Stop: 178000. Target: 151000. Consider the risks!

Support — 167610. Resistance — 176050.
