Weekly Market Review — Targets Reached, New Decision PhaseU.S. Dollar Currency IndexTVC:DXYImeda_Market_AnalysisMulti-Asset Weekly Market Review | September 21–25, 2026 This weekly review summarizes the final technical and fundamental assessment across my core monitored markets: DXY, EUR/USD, GBP/USD, AUD/USD, NZD/USD, USD/CAD, USD/JPY, Brent Crude Oil, Nasdaq 100, S&P 500 and Dow Jones. DXY — Bullish Breakout Completed, Correction Begins The bullish sequence was successfully confirmed: 100.331 → 100.496 → 100.573 → 100.697 → 100.866 → 100.988 → 101.179–101.277. The original bullish scenario was substantially completed after DXY reached the major 101.179–101.277 resistance zone. Rejection from this area initiated a corrective phase. The immediate decision zone is now 100.988–100.890. Fresh confirmation is required before assuming another directional expansion. EUR/USD — Bearish Scenario Completed The bearish structure developed through 1.14817 → 1.14678 → 1.14518 and ultimately reached the major 1.13638–1.13692 support area. A corrective recovery followed, but the higher-timeframe structure remains bearish until important resistance is reclaimed. GBP/USD — Bearish Extension Reached Major Support The bearish sequence progressed through 1.33397 → 1.33225 → 1.32866 → 1.32505 → 1.32109. The original bearish scenario was therefore completed and extended. The late-week rebound currently represents a corrective recovery rather than a confirmed higher-timeframe reversal. AUD/USD — Bullish Attempt Failed, Bearish Breakdown Developed The conditional bullish recovery failed and the subsequent loss of key confirmation levels shifted the structure bearish. Price extended through 0.71083 → 0.70856 → 0.70731 toward the 0.7000 region. Momentum is now stretched, making fresh confirmation increasingly important. NZD/USD — Bullish Recovery Invalidated The recovery attempt above 0.57245 failed. Price subsequently broke 0.57187, followed by the critical 0.57074 invalidation level, and extended toward 0.56747. The broader structure remains bearish, but deeply stretched momentum makes the current support region an important decision point. USD/CAD — Bullish Breakout Confirmed The breakout above 1.40103 was confirmed and price advanced through 1.40716 toward the major 1.41067–1.41254 resistance area. The original bullish scenario developed successfully, although overbought higher-timeframe momentum means continuation now requires fresh confirmation. USD/JPY — Original Bearish Scenario Invalidated The anticipated bearish confirmation below 156.049 never developed. Instead, price broke the 157.947 invalidation level and advanced toward approximately 158.920 before entering a sharp correction. The 157.142–156.890 region now represents an important support and decision area. Brent Crude Oil — Correction, Recovery and Rejection Brent's bearish correction reached the predefined 95.24–96.13 support region. A subsequent recovery reclaimed 98.31–99.12 and temporarily moved above 101.09, before being rejected around the 102.34–103.50 resistance structure. Fresh confirmation is now required around the current support structure. Nasdaq 100 — Bullish Scenario Completed The bullish sequence reached the major 30,694.68–30,726.91 target region. The subsequent correction tested approximately 30,200, where support held and buyers returned. The broader structure remains constructive, but another bullish expansion requires a fresh breakout above major resistance. S&P 500 — Bullish Target Reached, Support Held The breakout above 7,684.47 was confirmed and the 7,750.63 target was reached, followed by an extension toward approximately 7,788.85. The subsequent correction returned to the 7,684.47–7,673.01 decision region. Support held and a bullish recovery developed into the end of the week. Dow Jones — Bearish Breakdown Followed by Strong Recovery The breakdown below 51,556.80 was confirmed and price moved toward the vicinity of the 51,077.90 first downside objective. A strong recovery subsequently reclaimed 51,556.80 and 51,767.60, materially changing the short-term structure. Fresh confirmation is therefore required before extending either scenario. Fundamental Context U.S. macroeconomic data were an important driver this week. Preliminary U.S. PMIs were strong, with Composite PMI at 58.4, Manufacturing PMI at 57.0 and Services PMI at 58.7. Initial Jobless Claims came in at 197K, while New Home Sales reached 684K. Friday's picture was more mixed. Headline Durable Goods Orders were 0.0%, ex-transport orders increased 0.3%, and final Michigan Consumer Sentiment came in at 48.1, above consensus but below the previous reading. Overall, the macro backdrop supported U.S. dollar strength during much of the week, while several markets simultaneously reached important technical support/resistance areas and increasingly stretched momentum conditions. Weekly Conclusion The central result of this week's analysis is not simply the direction of individual markets, but the performance of the conditional framework: Scenario → Confirmation → Target Progression → Invalidation when required → Reassessment. Several scenarios reached their principal objectives. Others failed their confirmation conditions and were invalidated before a different market structure developed. A conditional scenario should not be interpreted as an unconditional BUY or SELL forecast. With several markets now positioned near major support/resistance areas or showing stretched momentum, the completed weekly moves should not automatically be extrapolated into the next week. The next phase will be evaluated from fresh D1 → H4 → H1 confirmation, using the final support, resistance and decision zones established this week.
