🐶📊 Midday Market Update — 26 October 2026

Options Puppy’s Market Takeaway

🥇 1. Gold rebounds

Gold rebounded after falling below US$3,980. Buyers may be stepping in at lower levels, but I want to see whether the recovery can continue.

My view: Watch whether gold holds its rebound instead of chasing the price.

🛢️ 2. Oil retreats

Oil prices retreated today. Lower oil prices may ease inflationary pressures, but the impact depends on supply, demand and the wider economic outlook.

My view: Monitor oil prices, inflation expectations and interest-rate developments before making a trading decision.

🏦 3. Singapore banks: DBS and OCBC

DBS and OCBC experienced intraday declines before rebounding.

* DBS: Fell towards S$73.80 before recovering.

* OCBC: Dropped towards S$28.80 before rebounding.

* OCBC potential support: S$28.50, based on the recent low I am watching.

My view: I prefer keeping suitable bank holdings for dividends if the long-term investment thesis remains intact. If I have additional capital, I may consider trading within a range, buying near potential support and taking profits near resistance.

However, support levels are not guaranteed to hold. If prices break down, I will reassess rather than keep buying blindly.

💻 4. NVIDIA: US$210–US$214 range

NVIDIA is consolidating between approximately US$210 and US$214.

* US$210: Potential support.

* US$214: Potential resistance.

* Above US$214: Watch for a sustained breakout.

* Below US$210: Reassess the short-term outlook.

My view: I would rather wait for confirmation than chase the price. If I trade options, I will consider the premium, expiration, implied volatility and potential losses.

🐶 5. My trading plan

My approach is simple:

* 🥇 Gold: Watch whether the rebound continues.

* 🛢️ Oil: Monitor whether the retreat persists.

* 🏦 DBS and OCBC: Keep suitable long-term positions for dividends and consider range trading with spare capital.

* 💻 NVIDIA: Watch the US$210–US$214 range.

* 💰 Cash: Keep enough available for unexpected opportunities.

* 🛡️ Risk management: Never assume that a support level will hold.

Different markets, different opportunities. I do not need to trade every movement. I want to wait for setups that offer a reasonable balance between potential returns and risk.
