The Asian session (Sydney · Australia · Tokyo · China · Singapore) · updated 2026-09-07 21:00 UTC.
Backdrop. The US session closed with oil climbing on reports of a Saudi refinery hit and US strikes on Iranian crude carriers, while bitcoin softened toward the 79,000 area — the risk-off tone from Asia and London still lingering, though the tape had found footing. Gold continues to nurse losses near 4,404, squeezed between flipped support at 4,400.21 and resistance at 4,416.17.
On the calendar. A light, low-tier data slate across the region — Japanese GDP and cash earnings, Chinese trade figures, Australian business confidence, plus an RBA assist governor speech. Nothing here moves the needle on its own, so expect technicals and headline flow to lead. Note the continuity thread: the ECB rate-hike story and CLARITY Act September 15 test keep political risk simmering in the background.
What to watch. Oil is the cleanest signal — bullish structure intact, though it's squeezed between 90.47 support and 91.02 resistance, with a divergence warning flashing. Bitcoin sits at a tight range between 78,633.6 and 79,244.7; a break either way sets the crypto tone. USD/JPY is stretched bearish with H4 RSI at 18.5 and a divergence caution — the yen's had its run, so watch for a snap-back. Ether holds its H4 uptrend above 2,486 support. Let price decide the squeezes; keep one eye on the headlines.
