London Session's Technical Barometer

What this reads: the bigger picture for this session — daily, 4-hour and 1-hour trends with 4-hour and 1-hour momentum, read when this briefing was written. It changes slowly and is not a forecast. Market Pulse reads only the last hour or so, so the two can disagree: a short bounce inside a downtrend can read bullish there and bearish here.

SESSION PREP · LONDON

What to watch in the London session

The London session (Europe open · the liquidity hour) · updated 2026-10-13 08:02 UTC.

Good morning, London. The backdrop is a familiar tangle — oil on the move after Trump's Russian diesel comments, Asian equities mixed, and a K-shaped global economy doing its best impression of a mood ring. Gold is slipping as attention turns to US data, while crypto regulation keeps making headlines on both sides of the Atlantic.

The calendar for this window is light: China's M2 money supply and new loans, plus the NFIB Small Business Index out of the US — all low-tier, none likely to be a sledgehammer.

On the gauge: EUR/USD reads bearish clear, with D1 and H4 down against an H1 up, and about the same room to the levels above and below. USD/JPY is bullish clear and sitting right at the nearest level above. Gold is neutral, wedged between two close levels — a move out of that zone could go either way. Oil is neutral and also right at the nearest level above. Sterling, Bitcoin and Ethereum round out the board, with Bitcoin bearish leaning and the other two neutral. Watch whether the thin calendar lets those nearby levels do the talking.
