NFP Shock: Oil Sinks Despite Dollar Weakness – Trading Implications

🔹 Macro Events
ECB meeting (Thu, Sept 11): focus on guidance after soft EU PMIs.
US CPI (Fri, Sept 12): key inflation test after weak August NFP; consensus +0.2% m/m.
China Trade Balance (Mon): early gauge of global demand.
UK GDP (Wed): expected flat, testing sterling resilience.
🔹 Markets to Watch
USD: sentiment fragile after NFP miss; CPI will steer Fed cut expectations.
Equities: Dow rejected 45,711 pivot, next week hinges on Fed path and CPI.
Commodities: Gold and silver holding highs; watch for follow-through post-NFP.
Bonds: yields biased lower into data, curve steepening in play.
🔹 Trading Themes
Dollar under pressure — weak jobs, dovish Fed tilt.
Risk assets supported, but growth fears may cap rallies.
Metals momentum — gold/silver as barometer of policy easing.


Markets closed the week digesting a major shock from the US labor market. August NFP came in at +22k vs 75k expected, with the jobless rate up to 4.3% and prior months revised down by –258k. This confirmed a clear loss of hiring momentum.
The report reshaped policy expectations: markets now fully price a September Fed rate cut, with debate over –25bp or –50bp. Treasury yields fell, the USD weakened, and equities found temporary relief as investors leaned on the “Fed put.”
Commodities extended gains, with gold hitting fresh record highs above $3,580/oz before consolidating. Silver followed with strong inflows, highlighting the renewed demand for hedges against policy easing.
In Europe, PMI softness and cautious ECB commentary kept EUR volatility elevated ahead of next week’s meeting. In Asia, weaker Chinese trade data continued to weigh on regional sentiment.
Overall, the week confirmed a decisive shift: growth signals are cooling, central banks are leaning dovish, and markets are trading the path of policy easing more aggressively.

In this post I share a real trading setup executed on BrentOil (XBRUSD) using a combination of Renko charts, MACD divergence, and price action confirmation.
Strategy Setup:
Chart type: Renko 15 Indicators used: MACD 7.10.5 Pattern: Double top with MACD bearish divergence
Entry price: 69.30
Stop Loss: 69.60 + spread
Manual exit: 68.81
Result: +49 pips
Risk/Reward: 1:1.6 approx.
Execution date: 24/07/2025
This is a clean example of how simple price structures combined with indicator divergence can lead to high-probability entries.I use this kind of setup regularly on Renko charts across XAUUSD, DAX, Oil and Dow Jones.
