Daily analysis of major pairs for March 5, 2014 Trend News

EUR/USD: Despite the gradual southward movement of the price, the bullish outlook on this pair is not yet over. For the bullish bias to continue to exist, the plunge in the price should be contained at the support line of 1.3700. Otherwise, the presence of the price below the support line would result in a new bearish signal.


1.png

USD/CHF: From the support level at 0.8800, this pair has moved upwards by over 80 pips, now trading above another support level at 0.8850. The resistance level at 0.8900 remains a simple target, although the price could even go beyond that. One thing to know is that this resistance level needs to be breached to the upside before there can be a confirmed bullish signal in the chart.


2.png

GBP/USD: The bears have been flexing their muscles on the Cable, whereas the bulls are trying to hold their ground. Albeit it is possible that this market would go upwards again, it is OK to stay away from it until a clear directional bias is determined.


3.png

USD/JPY: The USD/JPY has crossed the demand level at 102.00 to the upside, going towards the supply level at 102.50. The price has crossed the EMA 56 to the upside and the RSI period 14 has crossed the level 50 to the upside. The supply level at 103.00 is thus the main target for the bull in this week.


4.png

EUR/JPY: From the weekly low of 139.14, this cross has gone upwards for more than 120 pips. Actually, there is now a Bullish Confirmation Pattern in the chart, and the price is expected to continue going further upwards. The new target for the bull remains at the supply zone of 141.00. Actually that supply zone was tested several times last month.

Technical analysis of USD/JPY for March 05, 2014 Trend News

1393991261_!UJ05032014.jpgIn Asia, Japan will not release any news and the US will release some economic data such as US-ADP Non-Farm Employment Change, US-Final Services PMI, US-ISM Non-Manufacturing PMI,Crude Oil Inventories, US-Beige Book.

Support. 3: 101.63.


DESCRIPTION:


Please, pay attention to the levels of support 3 (101.63) and resistance 3 (102.68). Normally, when a level is touched, USD/JPY will rebound from the previous minimum by 10 to 20 pips, but if the levels are broken through by over 50 pips, then it will be a sign that these currencies have found trends today.

Daily analysis of USDX for March 05, 2014 Trend News

Daily chart: The USDX is consolidating above the support level of 80.11, so it is very likely that the USDX start making some corrective movements. If the USDX strongly manages to consolidate above this level, it's expected to rise to the resistance level of 80.62, which would be a definite trend change. The MACD indicator is in neutral territory, so we must be cautious.


1393973551_usdxdaily.png

H4 chart: The USDX has found resistance at the 80.15 level, which has become a fairly strong level. If the USDX does make a breakout at that level, it would be expected to rise to the resistance level of 80.44. On the other hand, if the USDX does make a breakout at the support level of 80.09, it's expected to fall to the level of 79.93. The MACD indicator is in positive territory.


1393973562_usdxh4.png

H1 chart: The USDX managed to rise to the resistance level of 80.15, where the 200-day moving average is located. It is very likely that the USDX will make a bearish rebound at this level, since the 200 SMA is shown as a strong resistance level, so it would be expected to fall to a support level of 79.88. On the other hand, if the USDX does make a breakout at the level of 80.15, it's expected to rise to the level of 80.35. The MACD indicator is in neutral territory.


1393973571_usdxh1.png


Trading recommendations for today: Based on the H1 chart, place sell (short) orders only if the USD Index breaks with a bearish candlestick; the support level is at 79.88, take profit is at 79.64, and stop loss is at 80.12.

Daily analysis of GBP/USD for March 05, 2014 Trend News

Daily chart: GBP/USD remains above the support level of 1.6663, so this pair remains steadfast in the bullish bias. However, if the pair manages to make a breakout at that level, it would be expected to fall to the level of 1.6540. On the other hand, if this pair makes a bullish rebound at this support level and forms a fractal, it's expected to rise to the resistance level of 1.6766 that would be a bullish consolidation. The MACD indicator is still in negative territory.


1393973509_gbpusddaily.png


H4 chart: This pair has formed a fractal below the support level of 1.6644, so it is very likely that the GBPUSD follow conducting bullish movements. If the pair manages to hold above the 1.6667 level, it's expected to rise to the level of 1.6765. On the other hand, if the pair manages to make a breakout at the support level of 1.6644, it's expected to fall to the level of 1.6592. The MACD indicator is in negative territory.


1393973521_gbpusdh4.png


H1 chart: The GBP/USD is finding support on the point of control near the level of 1.6660 and 200 SMA. If the pair manages to make a breakout at the resistance level of 1.6700, it's expected to rise to the level of 1.6750. On the other hand, keep in mind that the GBP/USD stays below the 200-day moving average, so we must be careful when placing buy orders below that level.


1393973529_gbpusdh1.png


Trading recommendations for today: Based on the H1 chart, place buy (long) orders only if the GBP/USD pair breaks a bullish candlestick; the resistance level is at 1.6700, take profit is at 1.6750, and stop loss is at 1.6650.

Technical analysis of USD/JPY for March 04, 2014 Trend News

USDJPYM30.png


Overview:


USD/JPY is expected to consolidate with bullish bias after hitting near-one-month low of 101.20 Monday. It is undermined by the flows to safe-haven JPY and selling of the yen crosses amid increased risk aversion (VIX fear gauge rose 14.29% to 16.00, S&P fell 0.74% overnight) on heightened concerns over political crisis in Ukraine. USD/JPY is also weighed by the lower U.S. Treasury yields and Japan's exports sales. But USD/JPY losses are tempered by the demand from the Japanese importers, loose BOJ monetary policy, and positive U.S. dollar sentiment (ICE spot dollar index last 80.06 versus 79.84 early Monday) after stronger-than-expected rise in ISM manufacturing PMI to 53.2 in February from 51.3 in January (versus 52.5 forecast), surprise 0.1% rise in U.S. January construction spending (versus forecast 0.5% fall), higher Markit final U.S. February manufacturing PMI of 57.1 (versus initial estimate of 56.7), higher-than-expected 0.4% increase in the U.S. January personal spending (versus +0.1% forecast).


Technical сomment:
Daily chart is negative-biased as MACD and stochastics are bearish, five day moving average is below the 15-day MA and is declining.


Trading recommendation:


The pair is trading above its pivot point. It is likely to trade in a higher range as far as it remains above its pivot point. As far as the price is above its pivot point, a long position is recommended with the first target at 102.20 and the second target at 102.45. In an alternative scenario, if the price moves below its pivot points, short positions are recommended with the first target at 101.30. A breach of this target will push the pair further downwards and one may expect the second target at 101.15. The pivot point is at 101.50.

Technical analysis of NZD/USD for March 04, 2014 Trend News

NZDUSDM30.png


Overview:


NZD/USD is expected to trade with risks skewed lower. It is undermined by the positive U.S. dollar sentiment, kiwi sales on soft NZD/JPY cross amid increased investor risk aversion and kiwi sales on rebounding AUD/NZD cross. But NZD/USD losses are tempered by the hawkish Reserve Bank of New Zealand's monetary policy stance. Daily chart is mixed as MACD is bullish, 5- and 15-day moving averages are advancing, but stochastics is turning bearish near overbought zone.


Trading recommendation:


The pair is trading above its pivot point. It is likely to trade in a higher range as far as it remains above its pivot point. As far as the price is above its pivot point, a long position is recommended with the first target at 0.8425 and the second target at 0.846. In an alternative scenario, if the price moves below its pivot points, short positions are recommended with the first target at 0.8310. A breach of this target will push the pair further downwards and one may expect the second target at 0.8285. The pivot point is at 0.8340.

Technical analysis of USD/CHF for March 04, 2014 Trend News

USDCHFM30.png


Overview:


USD/CHF is expected to trade in higher range. It is underpinned by the positive U.S. dollar sentiment and franc sales on soft CHF/JPY cross. But CHF sentiment is soothed by the surprise rise in Switzerland PMI to 57.6 in February from 56.1 in January (versus 55.8 forecast). USD/CHF gains are also tempered by the franc demand on soft EUR/CHF cross. Daily chart is still negative-biased as MACD is bearish, but stochastics stays suppressed at oversold zone; 5- and 15-day moving averages are declining.


Trading recommendation:


The pair is trading above its pivot point. It is likely to trade in a higher range as far as it remains above its pivot point. As far as the price is above its pivot point, a long position is recommended with the first target at 0.8875 and the second target at 0.8895. In an alternative scenario, if the price moves below its pivot points, short positions are recommended with the first target at 0.8795.

GBPJPYM30.png


Overview:


GBP/JPY is expected to trade in higher range. It is undermined by the increased investor risk aversion as Russia-Ukraine tensions persist and Japan exporter sales. But GBP/JPY losses are tempered by the diminished expectations for ECB rate cut on Thursday after higher-than-expected euro-zone February flash CPI, demand from Japan importers and loose BOJ's monetary policy. Daily chart is negative-biased as stochastics is falling from overbought zone and MACD is staging bearish crossover against its exponential moving average, five-day moving average is falling below 15-day MA.


Trading recommendation:


The pair is trading above its pivot point. It is likely to trade in a higher range as far as it remains above its pivot point. As far as the price is above its pivot point, a long position is recommended with the first target at 170.6 and the second target at 171.2. In an alternative scenario, if the price moves below its pivot points, short positions are recommended with the first target at 168.75.

1393937079_golddaily04.png

Overview:


Since our last analysis, gold has been trading downwards, the price tested the level of 1,331.58 on high volume. Our previous analysis is still active and buying at this stage looks risky. The Gold is around our critical resistance area, the price of 1,338.00. We got FR 61.8% at the price of 1,338.00 and if that level can hold, we may see potential bearish movements. According to daily chart, we can observe buying climax, which is a sign that buying at this stage looks risky. According to H4 chart, we can observe that strong supply entered the market. My advice is to watch for potential bearish movements after retracement. I've placed Fibonacci levels to find potential down stations and I got submajor Fibonacci retracement 38.2% at the price of1,309.00 and Fibonacci retracement 61.8% at the price of 1,282.00.


Daily pivot Fibonacci points:


Resistance levels:


R1: 1,354.54


R2: 1,358.92


R3: 1,366.03


Support levels:


S1: 1,340.32


S2: 1,335.94


S3: 1,328.83


Trading recommendation: Trading the metal, be careful with buying since Gold is around critical area and we are also near the high new ground.

Overview:


Since our previous analysis, the EUR/NZD pair has been trading downwards, the price tested the level of 1.6376 on volume above the average. We can observe that the price rejected from our Fibonacci Retracement 61.8% (1.6515). We are now in progress of bearish correction and I plcaed Fibonacci retracement to find a potential end of the bearish corrective phase. I got Fibonacci Retracement 61.8% at the price of 16365. Be careful with selling since we may see the end of bearish corrective phase (abcd). EUR/NZD is in short- and mid-term bullish trend, so watch for buying opportunities on the dips and try to catch the bullish continuation phase. The first upper station is the area around the price of 1.6515 (FR 61.8%).

EUR/AUD intraday technical levels and trading recommendations for March 4, 2014 Trend News

euraud4h.jpg


On January 24, the EUR/AUD pair initiated a downside movement. This movement was maintained within the depicted bearish channel.


On February 13, the bulls expressed a bullish breakout above the upper limit when the bearish momentum expressed considerable weakness.


Simultaneously, the bulls established a bullish Head and Shoulders pattern off 1.5000. The neckline is roughly located at 1.5265.


Confirmation of bullish reversal is evident with Four-Hour fixation above the price level of 1.5265. However, the pair showed indecision around 1.5265 for few hours before the bulls managed to establish an ascending bottom around 1.5185.


Projection target of this confirmed reversal pattern is located at 1.5525 as long as neckline 1.5265-1.5200 remains defended by the bulls (our stop loss levels).


Bullish fixation above 1.5330 is essential to pursue further bullish targets of the Head and shoulders pattern.


On the other hand, consolidation below 1.5250 threatens our bullish view hindering further bullish progression.

USD/CAD intraday technical levels and trading recommendations for March 4, 2014 Trend News

cadweekly.jpgusdcad.jpg


The pair established a prominent top around 1.1220 that pushed the USD/CAD pair back to the previous congestion zone between 1.0850 and 1.0960.


This congestion zone provided a considerable support at retesting on February 19. This led again towards 1.1190 where the USD/CAD pair topped on February 21 expressing an Inverted Hammer daily candlestick as depicted on the chart.


In the long-term, the bullish demand expressed at 1.0960 is probably pushing towards 1.1235 corresponding to 50% Fibonacci.


Bearish rejection of the current levels will push the pair again towards 1.0950 then 1.0850 as initial targets. These levels also correspond to the depicted uptrend line that was initiated in September 2013, thus the market may offer a good BUY opportunity around 1.0900 with stop loss as daily closure below 1.0850.


On the other hand, daily fixation above 1.1235 will probably open the way towards the next resistance level around 1.1650 which corresponds to 61.8% Fibonacci which is prominent on the weekly chart.

Intraday technical levels and trading recommendations for GBP/USD for March 4, 2014 Trend News

gbpdailymic.jpg


The pair remains in the bearish impulse initiated off its peak price around 1.6820 as long as this highest price doesn't get broken through.


The breakdown of 1.6600 is essential to confirm reversal and trigger a stronger pullback, which will pause the short-term bullish momentum and open the way towards 1.6536 (50% Fibonacci Level of the swing between 1.6250/1.6821) and psychological Demand of 1.6500 as well.


The price level of 1.6600 seems to be a considerable support for the pair so far.


The bears failed to fixate below it on the last bearish attempt that took place two weeks ago. Instead, bullish pressure was applied to push again towards 1.6750 and 1.6800.


A double-top is probably being established around 1.6770 which needs breakdown of the neck-line around 1.6575. Projection target is located roughly at 1.6400.


gbp4h.jpg


The bulls were concentrated around 1.6600 considering it as an ideal reversal point.


Stabilization of 1.6600 protected the pair from further decline. This led to a sideway consolidative phase before the ongoing bullish breakout took place last week.


As expected, breakthrough above 1.6666 opened the way towards 1.6740 corresponding to 61.8% Fibonacci of the recent bearish swing depicted on the 4H chart.


Breakthrough above 1.6740 (61.8% Fibonacci) is a must to bring bulls back to push towards 1.6820 again.


On the other hand, stabilization below which traps the pair between it and the backside of the broken channel around 1.6650 (Recent Demand Level) which may lead to a sideway consolidative phase until new fundamental data gets into the market.

Intraday technical levels and trading recommendations for EUR/USD for March 4, 2014 Trend News

eurdaily.jpg


Successive ascending bottoms are being established on the daily chart. This means the uptrend line established on September 2013 is still intact.


The ongoing bullish impulse is probably targeting at 1.3900 corresponding to 100% Fibonacci Expansion as long as the depicted uptrend line remains defended by the bulls.

The pair failed to reach this price level on the previous attempt that took place on December 2013.


eur4hh.jpg


As long as the bulls are defending the established bottom at 1.3630 and the recent one at 1.3720, the EUR/USD pair remains bullish on the intermediate prospective.


The price zone of 1.3630-1.3720 which is trapped between 50% and 61.8% Fibonacci levels, is considered an important Demand zone to be provide a valid BUY entry.


On the other hand, breakdown of 1.3600-1.3630 invalidates the bullish scenario which is least likely to occur based on the fundamental statement given by Mario Draghi which is quite optimistic about the European situation and its limited relation to the crisis of the Ukrainian economy.


Stop Loss for the bullish scenario is located below 1.3680 which invalidates the bullish scenario on the short-term prospective.

Technical analysis of NZD/USD for March 4, 2014 Trend News

Weekly technical levels:


kiwi_pp.png

Pivot point formula:



  • Pivot point = (high (previous) + low (previous) + close (previous)) / 3


General idea about the pivot point.



  • Resistance 3 and support 3 are considered to be clear indicators of the maximum range of extreme volatility, though it is possible to pass them through. Pivot lines work well in the sideways markets, as the prices are most likely to be located between the resistance 1 and support 1 lines. Within a strong trend, the price is expected to be lower than the pivot point line and continue moving. If the breaking news released may affect the market, the price is likely to go straight through resistance 1 or support 1 and even reach resistance 2 and resistance 3 or support 2 and support 3. If trend breaks resistance or support through is likely to result in a significant price movement, it is also referred to as breakout.

Trading recommendations :



  • The NZD/USD pair on March 4, 2014. The resistance is going to set at the level of 0.8450. Consequently, the descending movement will probably be lower than the 0.8453 level with the targets at 0.8370 and 0.8323. On the contrary, the support has already set at 0.8290. Furthermore, it should note that it will very profitable to buy above this level for retesting this level for a short period. Therefore, buy deals are recommended above the 0.8300 level with targets at 0.8375 and 0.8424 to reach the double top.

#USDX technical analysis for March 4, 2014 Trend News

The Dollar index has broken downwards the bearish flag pattern and targets 79 for the short-term. Short-term resistance is found at 80.20 and at 80.40. These two levels are shown in the chart below by the two downward sloping trend lines.


usdx.jpg

The Dollar index continues to make lower lows and lower highs. Breaking below 79.70 will strengthen our bearish view and as this low is short-term support.


usdxd.jpg

The weekly chart shows how the index is below the Ichimoku cloud and is breaking the long-term upward sloping trend line that comes from 2011 April. The current trading area around the 80 level is very important for the longer-term trend. Soon we will find out if a tradeable bounce will come or support fails and we should expect prices to fall towards 73-74. 80.60 is important resistance that should be broken by bulls and support at 79.70 should hold. We are neutral as the index is near very important long-term support. Short-term view is bearish as long as the index trades below 80.50.

Technical analysis of USD/CAD for March 4, 2014 Trend News

General overview for 04/03/2013 10:00 CET


The five wave decline might have ended sooner than expected and the price has bounced up from the level of 50% Fibo at 1.1049. Nevertheless, the golden descending trend line still provides the dynamic resistance, and I expect that wave a green will finish somewhere around this level, ideally at the level of 1.1135 and intraday downtrend will resume. Only a sustained break out above the technical resistance at the level of 1.1156 would put this count into question and might even invalidate it.


Support/Resistance:


1.0895 - WS3


1.0967 - WS2


1.0969 - 78%Fibo


1.1016 - 1.1027 Supply breakthrough zone


1.1016 - WS1


1.1038 - Intraday support


1.1081 - Intraday resistance


1.1087 - Weekly pivot


1.1135 - WR1 | Key Level |


1.1156 - Technical resistance


Trading recommendations:


Sell limit orders should be opened at the level of 1.1134 with SL above the level of 1.1161 and TP at the level of 1.0914.

Gold technical analysis for March 4, 2014 Trend News

With tensions in Ukraine providing increased volatility in the markets, Gold price pulls back towards the $1,330-20 support zone. In our last analysis, we mentioned that a pullback towards $1,335 was very possible and that would be a buying opportunity as stop level for bulls was close by. We are buying Gold below $1,340 with $1,320 stop. The trend remains upward despite the sharp decline from recent highs at $1,355.


goldh4.jpg

The current trend supports our view that we are moving higher towards $1,360-70. Gold price is supported by the blue upward sloping trend line and the Ichimoku cloud. We have put our stop below these two support levels. Breaking below this support will push Gold price towards $1,305-10.


goldd.jpg

The daily chart shows how Gold price has moved above the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement and our next target is now the 76.4% retracement which is the next resistance level. The trend on a daily basis remains upward. Support at $1,320 if broken will push prices towards $1,290 as this is the next important daily support.

Elliott Wave Analysis of USD/CAD for March 04, 2014 Trend News

1393920021_CAD-ifx.png


USD/CAD Elliott Wave
For the last few weeks, the USD/CAD pair was trading downwards, corrective wave [b] (coloured black) of the bigger wave A (coloured blue) was developing. In the 1-hour chart of the USD/CAD pair, we can see that the price broke to the new lows in the early Friday's session, this move makes us look at the [b] wave as the Zig-Zag pattern. The final (c) wave of the bigger wave [b] wave tested the 100% extension of the wave (a), so techincily speaking wave [b] should be over with a test of the 1.1008 level. All the way the price remains above the 1.09300 level (short-term invalidation), we are going to look only for a buying opportunity in the [c] of A wave. In accordance with our wave rules and taking into account that wave [c] should extend 100% of wave [a], we can define the potential targets with measuring wave [a] with take profit at 1.1288 (100% of wave [a]).



Support and Resistance


(S3) 1.1066, (S2) 1.1091, (S1) 1.1108, (PP) 1.1133, (R1) 1.1150, (R2) 1.1175, (R3) 1.1192.



Trading forecast
Proceeding from Elliott Wave rules today, the trend is expected to begin upward movements. That is why long positions at the level of 1.1090 with stop loss at 1.0930 and take profit at 1.1288 are recommended.

AUD-ifx.png

AUD/USD Elliott Wave
Last week, the AUD/USD pair traded downwards, corrective wave [y] (coloured black) of the bigger wave B (coloured blue) was developing. In the 1-hour chart of the pair above, we can see that we have completed 7 swings move from the 0.9081 level, this is telling us that there is a good chance that wave B has completed the double three pattern with a test of the 0.8887 low. For the next few days, we should only look for a buying opportunity against the 0.8887 level. In accordance with our wave rules and taking into account that wave C should extend 100% of wave A, we can define the potential targets with measuring wave A with take profit at 0.9310 (100% of wave A). If the price make a new low below the 0.8903 level, we must go with idea that wave B is still incomplete cycle and we should wait for the next support level at 0.8866 to come before we try another setup.

Support and Resistance

(S3) 0.8854, (S2) 0.8879, (S1) 0.8921, (PP) 0.8946, (R1) 0.8988, (R2) 0.9013, (R3) 0.9055. Trading forecast
Proceeding from Elliot Wave rules today, the trend is expected to begin the upwards movements. That is why long positions at the level of 0.8950 with stop loss at 0.8887 and take profit at 0.9310 are recommended.
