Technical analysis of USD for April 15, 2014 Trend News

USD


The US Dollar Index fell during the course of last week, but remained above the 79 level. The 79 level is of course is supportive, and we believe it is a major inflection point. We feel that this market will go to the 84 level, given enough time in order to see the bulls continuing to take control of a market that they’ve had a strong presence in. On top of that, you can also make an argument for consolidation between this area and the 81.25 level, as we have seen it in the last six months proved to be relatively tight. With that, we most certainly have an upward bias at this point, but recognize that a breakdown below the 79 level would in fact be very significant. On that move, we would expect this market to drop all the way down to the 77.83 and 75 levels, but it would take some time. The level of 78.60 would of course offer support as well, but it is much more of a minor area than the 79 is, as we continue to see the market bounce from its handle. If we break above the 81.25 level, we can see a new high this year.

Technical analysis of gold for April 15, 2014 Trend News

Today traders eye Yellen's speech. Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen may clarify the US central bank's view on starting interest rate hikes. On Tuesday, Fed Chair Janet Yellen is expected to hold a video conference in Atlanta. Dr. Yellen is scheduled to present her opening remarks by video conference to the Financial Markets Conference in Georgia tomorrow and deliver a speech on monetary policy and the economic recovery on Wednesday in New York.


Technical view-


In the Asia's trading session, the metal is trading at $1,323 levels. It breaks the 200EMA level and trading below that level, witnessing sort of selling pressure. Currently, the metal is trading in the range between $1,327-$1,316 levels on a positional basis. The weekly support exists at $1,310 and $1,300 levels. During this week, we expect the pair will trade between $1,315-$1,335. Once the metal breaks the $1,335 level, it will fly immediately towards $1,342. On the down side the metal breaks the $1,315 level, it will drop up to $1,315, $1,300, below this, $1,295, $1,291, $1,285, and $1,277 levels. If this week is closed above the $1,335 levels, the bulls can make more legs towards $1,342, $1,347, and $1,359 levels next week.


In the near term, the metal extends its leg almost to the overbought level. RSI is indicating the sell mode and it gave a early indication of support break down in the H4 chart. For intraday perspective, the metal is reaching its support level of $1,318 and $1,316 is the support level. Once the pair breaks this, we can see a free fall to $1,312 and $1,307 levels.


In yesterday's article we recommended a sell call below $1,324 for targets at $1,320 and $1,315 with intermediate support at $1,318. We are still recommending the same until the metal crosses the $1,327 levels. The level of $1,318 will act as the trend decider level for today's trading perspective. It is the key level to watch for both bulls and bears. Once the pair breaks this level of $1,318, immediately we will see $1,313-$1,312 and $1,307 on an intraday and STBT basis. If the level of $1,318 holds, we expect it will pull back to $1,325-$1,326 levels. Sellers can short there again with sl at $1,327. If any positive flow to this metal, don't hold shorts; above the level of $1,327, it will fly up to $1,334 and $1,342. For the rest of this week, selling on rally is the best strategy.


GOLDH4.png

Recommendations-


1. Sell below $1,317 for targets at $1,313-$1,312, $1,310, and $1,307.


2. Buy above $1,328 for targets at $1,334 and $1,342.


Adopt a strategy and trade safe.

Technical analysis of USD/JPY for April 15, 2014 Trend News

!UJ150414.jpg


In Asia, Japan will not release any economic reports and the US will release some economic data such as Core CPI m/m, CPI m/m, Empire State Manufacturing Index, TIC Long-Term Purchases, NAHB Housing Market Index, Fed Chair Yellen Speech. So there is a big probability the USD/JPY will move with low volatility during the Asian session, but with medium volatility during the US session.


TODAY's TECHNICAL LEVELS:


Resistance. 3: 102.43.


Resistance. 2: 102.23.


Resistance. 1: 102.03.


Support. 1: 101.78.


Support. 2: 101.58.


Support. 3: 101.38.


DESCRIPTION:


Please, pay attention to the levels of support 3 (101.38) and resistance 3 (102.43). 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.

Technical analysis of USD/JPY for April 15, 2014 Trend News

The pair has been in a downtrend from 104.11 levels. In yesterday's article I gave a buy call. The pair gave a breakout from the symmetric triangle aiming at the upside targets of 102.15 and 102.5. The pair is facing resistance at 102 levels. Once it crosses this level, it will shoot to the next targets. On the downside, 101.66, 101.42, and 101.33 are the support levels and 101.33 is the sl for my buying recommendation. The RSI is favoring my view.


For positional traders, the February 03 low of 100.78 is the strong support, breaking below it will pospone the uptrend for a couple of days. The pair falls all the way to 100-99 levels. After a day close above the 102.35 levels, the bulls will take the pair towards 103 and 104.11 levels. During the week, if the pair trades below 102.03 levels, the pair will correct a bit again. Bulls will get more strength only above 102.03 levels or in a dip if it comes at 100.5-100 levels.

Daily analysis of USDX for April 15, 2014 Trend News

Daily chart: The USDX has had a bullish momentum above the support level of 79.19, but this is part of the corrective moves being made by the USDX after the fall that has occurred in recent days from the 200 SMA. USDX does make a breakout at the level of 79.85, it's expected to rise to the level of 80.11. The MACD indicator is in negative territory.


usdxdaily.png

H4 chart: The USDX is consolidating above the support level of 79.69 and now the USDX is forming a lower high pattern above that level. If the USDX does make a breakout on the resistance level of 79.93, it's expected to rise to the level of 80.09. For now, the USDX remains a poorly defined trend. The MACD indicator is in positive territory.


usdxh4.png

H1 chart: The USDX is finding resistance at the 200-day moving average, so we must be vigilant against a bearish rebound at that level. However, if the USDX does make a breakout at the support level of 79.64, it's expected to fall to the level of 79.39. On the other hand, if the USDX manages to consolidate above the 200-day moving average, it's expected to rise to the level of 80.15. The MACD indicator is in negative territory.


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 79.64, take profit is at 79.39, and stop loss is at 79.90.

Daily analysis of GBP/USD for April 15, 2014 Trend News

Daily chart: This pair remains below the resistance level of 1.6766, but remember that the GBP/USD is making corrective movements, so that the decline could extend to the support level of 1.6663 for the week. If this pair makes a breakout at that level, it would be expected to fall to the level of 1.6585. The MACD indicator is in positive territory.


gbpusddaily.png


H4 chart: The GBP/USD continues to fall below the 1.6785 level and there is support at the bearish trend line. If the pair manages to make a breakout at that level, it would be expected to fall to the level of 1.6683. On the other hand, it is very likely that this pair will make a bullish rebound at current levels, so we must be cautious. The MACD indicator is in negative territory.


gbpusdh4.png


H1 chart: The GBP/USD has made a bullish rebound above the 200-day moving average, which is close to the support level of 1.6700. It is likely that the corrective phase intraday has finished in this pair at this level, so that the GBP/USD could continue to rise in the coming days. We must be aware of a breakout in the resistance level of 1.6750. The MACD indicator is in neutral territory.


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 1.6750, take profit is at 1.6800, and stop loss is at 1.6700.

Technical analysis of USD/SGD for April 15, 2014 Trend News

The pair has been in a downtrend from 1.2769 levels. It is trading below the short- and medium-term moving averages on a bearish note. The pair made a double bottom at 1.2426 levels. In the daily charts RSI is favoring bulls. The pair is facing strong resistance at the 23.6 fib level (1.2806-1.2426). Once the pair crosses the 1.2515 (923.6 fib) levels, it will shoot up to 1.2569 (200EMA & 38.6 fib level) and 1.2616 (50SMA & 50.0fib level). For positional traders, we recommend, one can enter longs above the 23.6 fib level or in a dip. The up move has just started. At least, in the case of fall, we can expect 1.24-1.23 levels in the coming trading days.


USDSGDDaily.png

Weekly basis


The pair is facing strong resistance at 1.2525 (50SMA) in the H4 chart. Once it crosses above the 1.2525 levels, the pair will move to 1.2562, 1.2591 (200EMA), and 1.2626 (April 04 high) levels. On the down side, 1.2481, 1.2441, and 1.2426 are the support levels. The bulls are back on track completely only above 1.2626 for new high's.

gbpjpy_14-4.png


Overview


From the shown 4H chart, the pair failed to break the Support level of 169.75 more than once and is still trading above it since yesterday. From the today's 4H chart the pair bounced from the Support area again and took a slightly upward move approaching the Resistance level of 170.50. Currently, it is prefered to wait till closing above this Resistance level before making the decision and in this case we will get more bullish signals with the first target few pips below the next Resistance level 171.50 then 172.00 as the second target. But closing below the Resistance level of 170.50 cancels the bullish move scenario.


Resistance and support levels: R3 (173.00) R2 (172.00) R1 (171.50), S1 (169.75), S2 (169.20), S3 (168.50).

Daily analysis of Silver for April 14, 2014 Trend News

silver_14-4.png


Overview


As shown in the today's 4H chart, the metal is stabilizing above the Support level of 19.75 after its failure to break the Support level last week. Currently, we must wait for re-testing of the Support level again and closing below to get the bearish move opportunity. In that case we will get a good opportunity to sell below the Support level till testing the next Support level of 19.50. Therefore, we can consider our first target few pips above this Support level, but as long as the price is still above the Support level of 19.75 this cancels the bearish move scenario.


Resistance and support levels: R3 (20.75), R2 (20.50), R1 (20.20), S1 (19.75), S2 (19.50), S3 (19.20).

Technical analysis of USD/JPY for April 14, 2014 Trend News

USDJPYM30.png


Overview:


USD/JPY is expected to consolidate after hitting a 3-week low at 101.32 on Friday. It is underpinned by the improved dollar sentiment (ICE spot dollar index last 79.60 versus 79.40 early Friday) on better-than-expected U.S. April preliminary University of Michigan consumer sentiment index of 82.06 (versus 81.0 forecast) and higher-than-expected 0.5% rise in U.S. March PPI (versus +0.1% forecast). USD/JPY is also supported by the demand from Japan importers. But USD/JPY gains are tempered by the Japan exporter sales, lower U.S. Treasury yields, dovish Federal Reserve policy stance, flows to haven JPY and unwinding of JPY-funded carry trades amid weaker risk appetite (VIX fear gauge rose 7.17% to 17.03) as U.S. stocks fell Friday (S&P dropped 0.95) and worries fester over the situation in Ukraine and diminished expectations of further easing from the Bank of Japan.


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


Trading recommendation:
The pair is trading below its pivot point. It is likely to trade in a lower range as far as it remains below its pivot point. Short position is recommended with the first target at 101.45. A breach of this target will move the pair further downwards to 10120. The pivot point stands at 102.30. In case the price moves in the opposite direction and bounces back from support level, and then it moves above its pivot point, it is likely to move further to the upside. In that scenario, a long position is recommended with the first target at 102.65 and the second target at 103.

Technical analysis of USD/CHF for April 14, 2014 Trend News

USDCHFM30.png


Overview:


USD/CHF is expected to trade in a higher range after hitting a three-week low at 0.8739 on Friday. It is supported by the improved dollar sentiment, dovish Swiss National Bank's monetary policy stance and franc sales on weak CHF/JPY cross. But USD/CHF gains are tempered by the franc demand on soft EUR/CHF cross. Daily chart is still negative-biased as MACD and stochastics are bearish, although the latter is at oversold zone, five-day moving average is below 15-day MA and still 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 0.8825 and the second target at 0.8845. In an alternative scenario, if the price moves below its pivot points, short positions are recommended with the first target at 0.8735. A breach of this target will push the pair further downwards and one may expect the second target at 0.8695. The pivot point is at 0.8755.

NZDUSDM30.png


Overview:


NZD/USD is expected to trade with risks skewed lower. It is undermined by the improved dollar sentiment, Kiwi sales on NZD/JPY cross amid increased investor risk aversion and concerns about the growth outlook in China. But NZD/USD losses are tempered by the hawkish Reserve Bank of New Zealand's monetary policy stance and Kiwi demand sales on soft AUD/NZD cross. Daily chart is mixed as five and 15-day moving averages are advancing, but stochastics turned bearish at overbought zone.


Trading recommendation:
The pair is trading below its pivot point. It is likely to trade in a lower range as far as it remains below its pivot point. Short position is recommended with the first target at 0.8625. A breach of this target will move the pair further downwards to 0.8610. The pivot point stands at 0.8690. In case the price moves in the opposite direction and bounces back from support level, and then it moves above its pivot point, it is likely to move further to the upside.

Overview:


GBP/JPY is expected to trade with bearish bias. It is undermined by the increased investor risk aversion, Japan exporter sales, reduced expectations of further easing from the Bank of Japan and jawboning from ECB President Draghi against euro strength.

Trading recommendation:
The pair is trading below its pivot point. It is likely to trade in a lower range as far as it remains below its pivot point. Short position is recommended with the first target at 170. A breach of this target will move the pair further downwards to 169.50. The pivot point stands at 171.05.

USD/CAD intraday technical levels and trading recommendations for April 14, 2014 Trend News

caddaily.jpg


Last week, the USD/CAD pair returned to test the previous support zone around 1.0900 (50% Fibonacci level) which previously provided a considerable support at retesting on February 19.


The depicted chart shows that the USD/CAD bulls failed to show enough bullish momentum above 1.1200. This exposed price zone of 1.0910-1.0850 (50-61.8% Fibonacci levels).


Daily closure below 1.0920 took place on Wednesday. However, it didn't take long time to have a bullish engulfing daily candlestick as a bullish reaction on the next day.


On the other hand, the price zone of 1.0970-1.0990 is expected to provide a considerable resistance as well. This price zone corresponds to the recently established resistance zone. It corresponds to previous multiple daily lows.


Any further visiting will probably offer a valid sell entry with stop loss located just above 1.1035.

EUR/AUD intraday technical levels and trading recommendations for April 14, 2014 Trend News

1397474591_euraud.jpg


On March 12, the bulls failed to establish an ascending top. Instead, a Double Top reversal pattern was established at 1.5500. The neckline was located at 1.5170-1.5200 also corresponding to the lower limit of the depicted channel.


By breakdown of 1.51750, the Double Top pattern could not only achieve its projection target at 1.4820-1.4800, but also confirmed a bigger Head and Shoulders pattern as well.


The bears managed to break down 1.4950 corresponding to 50% Fibonacci level last week (the nearest Support level). This exposed the price level of 1.4750 ( 61.8% Fibonacci ).


Trading above 1.4740 on a daily basis will probably hinder further bearish progression giving some time for sideway consolidation at least for retesting of 1.4945 (50% Fibonacci) which is a prominent resistance now.


On the other hand, daily closure below 1.4740 and a slide below 1.4675 will open the way towards 1.4350 as a projection target for the long-term bearish pattern.


Until now, the bulls are offering support around 1.4700-1.4725 where two successive bullish daily candlestick were expressed last week.


This may enhance the bullish pull-back towards 1.4945 as an initial target.


On the long-term prospective, projection targets of the H&S reversal pattern are projected towards 1.4350 roughly.

1397469034_gbpdaily.jpg


Around the price zone of 1.6780-1.6800, a Double Top pattern scenario was previously established during February and March.


Daily fixation below 1.6600 (reversal pattern neckline) exposed price level 1.6530 (50% Fibonacci) then enabled the pair to hit the full projection target at 1.6464 (61.8% Fibonacci).


The recent lows at 1.6465 as well as 1.6555 (corresponding to the depicted uptrend line) prevented further bearish decline and provided enough buying pressure to keep fixing above 1.6630-1.6666 (corresponding to a prominent top established on January 24).


As long as the ascending bottom established at the uptrend around 1.6555 remains intact, the bulls will be consolidating around 1.6780-1.6800.


The nearest demand zone to meet the pair is located at 1.6660-1.6675. It's the most recent established top on the current bullish swing.


Any bearish pull-back towards 1.6660 -1.6675 should be considered for buying as long as 1.6555 (most recent bottom) remains defended by the bulls.

The 4H chart reveals more significance of the demand zone around the recently broken top mentioned above in the daily chart.


It also corresponds to 50% and 61.8% Fibonacci levels which is a critical demand zone for the ongoing bullish swing.


The price zone of 1.6645 - 1.6680 may offer a valid BUY entry on the next bearish pull-back.


Stop loss should be located below 1.6560.

Intraday technical levels and trading recommendations for EUR/USD for April 14, 2014 Trend News

1397469030_eurdaily.jpg


In March, failure of the bulls to fixate above 1.3870 allowed enough bearish pressure to be applied on the pair towards the recent demand zone around 1.3700.


The supply zone at 1.3850-1.3880 rejected the bulls on December 27 and once more on March 19. This indicated its significance as a supply zone as well as a valid sell entry level as was suggested last week.


Two weeks ago, significant bullish pressure was applied at 1.3700 which paused the recent slide off 1.3965. The bulls managed to push above 1.3800-1.3820 (broken previous top).


Friday's daily candlestick came as a bearish "Doji". Today it's followed by the current bearish momentum probably aiming to retest 1.3800.


eur4h.jpg


Since the EUR/USD pair broke below 1.3855, the pair has roughly been moving sideways with slight bearish tendency until the depicted uptrend line came to meet the pair roughly at 1.3700-1.3680 enhancing this price zone as a significant intraday demand. This led to the recent bullish impulse above 1.3810 and 1.3855.


As suggested on Friday, price levels around 1.3880 provided a valid SELL entry. Profits should be taken near 1.3820-1.3800 ( the current prices ).


For the bulls, price zone 1.3810-1.3785 remains the nearest DEMAND zone to be watched for a valid BUY position. Stop Loss should be located below 1.3740.

EUR/NZD analysis for April 14, 2014 Trend News

eurnzddaily14.png


Overview:


Since our previous analysis, the EUR/NZD pair has been trading downwards, the price tested and rejected from the the level of 1.6101 (Fibonacci retracement 61.8%) and tested the level of 1.5922 on the volume below the average. According to the daily chart, we can observe rejection from our Fibonacci retracement 61.8% and that supply is overcoming demand on average volume, which is a sign that buying at this stage looks risky. As we already wrote in the previous analysis, EUR/NZD is in short- and mid-term bearish trend so watch for selling opportunities after retracement. Major down station may be the price of 1.5765. Buying looks risky, so watch for selling opportunities after retracement. Any larger supply on higher volume may confirm further bearish movement.


Daily pivot Fibonacci points:


Resistance levels:


R1: 1.6069


R2: 1.6105


R3: 1.6162


Support levels:


S1: 1.5954


S2 : 1.5918


S3: 1.5860


Trading recommendation: Be careful with buying the EUR/NZD and watch for selling opportunities after retracement.

Weekly technical levels of GBP/USD for April 14-18, 2014 Trend News

Weekly technical levels of the GBP/USD pair.


gbpusd_pp.png

Observations :



  • If the trend is upward, then the strength of the currency will be defined as follows: GBP is in an uptrend and USD is in a downtrend.

  • Fibonacci retracement is used to determine accurate psychological levels of support and resistance. The period of time should be taken into account. Fibonacci is in a range trade; it looks like the trend is trapped and going up or down. If you sell or buy in the long term, you will surely lose your profit.

  • It should be noted that if there is no significant news to influence, the market price will be moving from pivot point to resistance 1 or support 1. But if there is significant news to influence, the market price may go straight through resistance 1 or support 1 and reach resistance 2 or support 2 and even resistance 3 or support 3.



1397462745_gbpusdh1.png


Notes :



  • We expect a new range about 180 pips this week.

  • The key level will set at the level of 1.6600.

  • The support of the GBP/USD pair has already set at 1.6590. Moreover, the weekly support 1 will set at the same level.

  • If the trend fails to close below the level of 1.6590, it will be a good opportunity to buy above 1.6600 with the first target at 1.6704, then it will be continued straight towards 1.6819.

  • The price of 1.6704 is representing the weekly pivot point and 1.6819 is going to form a double top.

Pivot point among resistances and supports for April 14-18, 2014.



  • If the price is at pivot point (1.3828), watch for a move back to resistance 1 (1,3961) or support 1 (1.3751).

  • If the price is at resistance 1 (1.3961), expect a move to resistance 2 (1.4038) or back towards the pivot point (1.3828).

  • If the price is at support 1 (1.3751), expect a move to support 2 (1.3618) or back towards resistance 1 (1.3961).

  • If the price is at support 2 (1.3618), expect a move to support 3 (1.3541) or back towards support 1 (1.3751).

  • If the price is at resistance 2 (1.4038), expect a move to resistance 3 (1.4171) or back towards resistance 1 (1.3961).



1397461232_eurusdh1.png


Trading recommendations :



  • The support of the EUR/USD pair has already set at 1.3750 on April 14, 2014. Furthermore, it will be very profitable to buy above this level for retesting this level in the long term. Therefore, buy deals are recommended above the weekly support 1 with targets at 1.3830 (the level of 1.3838 is representing the weekly pivot point) and 1.3905 to reach the double top. On the contrary, the resistance is going to set at the level of 1.3960 this week. Consequently, the descending movement will probably be lower than the 1.3960 level with the targets at the weekly pivot point (1.3828) and 1.3750.

#USDX technical analysis for April 14, 2014 Trend News

The Dollar index has held above important support at 79.30 and has made a short-term upward break on Friday that could bring the index towards 79.80. Short-term trend is up as long as price remains above 79.30. Important resistance is found at 79.80-80.


usdx.jpg

Intermediate-term trend remains down. The Ichimoku cloud is above current price and places a lot of pressure to bulls. Bears have the upper hand but important previous low at 79.20 is still not broken. As long as this low is not broken, bulls still hope for another reversal. Strong resistance is found at 80 and at 80.60. Bulls need to break above these two levels in order to have hopes of a larger trend reversal.


usdxd.jpg

The daily chart confirms that bulls are in pressure and that the index remains in a downtrend as the high at 80.60 is substantially lower than the previous important high at 81.30. If the index manages to break the important low at 79.20 this will be a big sell sign as the longer-term trend will have another confirmation with a new lower low. Short-term traders can take a long position with 79.20 stop and 79.80 or 80 as target. A break above 80 will push the index towards the previous high and resistance at 80.60. Bears, on the other hand, can try to sell short the index near 79.80 with 80.25 stop.

Gold technical analysis for April 14, 2014 Trend News

Gold price has held on Friday its support at $1,315 and continued to rise inside the upward sloping channel towards our short-term target of $1,327. Gold price has broken above the important 38% Fibonacci retracement resistance level and if it holds above $1,315, then we should expect to see an upward move towards $1,340-50 this week.


goldh4.jpg

Gold price continues to make higher highs and higher lows. The Ichimoku cloud remains below the price, and the trend remains up. Short-term support is $1,315-20. Short-term resistane is found at $1,330-32. The upward move from $1,275 consists of 9 waves up to now. This number of waves is impulsive. Now we should expect a downward reversal if we assume that the first upward move is complete. The first bearish sell sign will come when the channel is broken. We expect the pullback to reach the Ichimoku cloud near $1,300.


goldd.jpg

Gold price has moved above the Daily Ichimoku cloud, but it is still too early for conclusions. The 38% Fibonacci retracement is important resistance and we have to wait for a confirmation that this level is broken. Next resistance is the 50% retracement. I expect Gold price to make a pull back and then continue higher towards the 61.8% retracement.

Elliott wave analysis of EUR/NZD for April 14, 2014 Trend News

EUR-NZD.png


Today's Support and Resistance levels:


R3: 1.6064


R2: 1.6032


R1: 1.6010


Current spot: 1.5980


S1: 1.5971


S2: 1.5945


S3: 1.5914


Technical summary:


The triangle consolidation is still unfolding. At this point, it is a bit unclear whether red wave c already has ended or more upside towards 1.6140 is needed. No matter which count proves correct, more sideways consolidation inside the triangle will be seen, before the final decline should be expected. This correction since September 2013 has been a nightmare and we are just looking forward to it being over soon.


Trading recommendation:


Stay neutral for now. Sell EUR at 1.6130 with a stop and reverse at 1.6185.

Technical analysis of GBP/CHF for April 14, 2014 Trend News


Technical outlook and chart setups:


1. The GBP/CHF pair is bouncing off from the back side of the resistance line, which is support now, around the 1.4620/30 levels. Please also note that 1.4600 is fibonacci 50% retracement of rally from 1.4450 to 1.4820/30 levels recently. Keeping the above into consideration, it is recommended to cover short positions. Aggressive trade setup is to go long (1.4680), risk remains at 1.4500.


2. Support is at 1.4450 (intermediary), followed by 1.4350, 1.4200 and lower, while resistance is at 1.4850, followed by 1.4950/60, and 1.5120/30 respectively.


3. The structure indicated that GBP/CHF pair could resume rally towards 1.4950/60 and higher from current price. Since the bounce is seen at support confluences of trend line and fibonacci, bulls might regain control.


Trading recommendations:


1. Exit short positions. Aggressive trade setup is to go long, stop at 1.4500, target is open.


2. Conservative approach is to remain flat for now and wait for further evidence.


Good luck!

Elliott wave analysis of EUR/JPY for April 14, 2014 Trend News

EUR-JPY.png


Today's Support and Resistance levels:


R3: 141.29


R2: 140.98


R1: 140.87


Current spot: 140.55


S1: 140.42


S2: 140.08


S3: 139.43


Technical summary:


Important resistance at 141.55 protected the upside to perfection, and we are now looking for the final decline in blue wave v towards 139.43 before the next meaningful correction should be expected. Once blue wave v is over, it will only mark wave one of the larger degree and following the correction from 139.43 towards 141.55 and maybe slightly higher, a new powerful decline in wave three should be expected.


Trading recommendation:


Stay short from 141.20 and move your stop lower to 141.35 and place stop profit at 139.55.

Technical analysis of USD/CAD for April 14, 2014 Trend News

General overview for 14/04/2014 08:30 CET


The corrective cycle is still in progress and it is developing in a shape of a triple ZigZag pattern. The market has hit the 61%Fibo at the level of 1.0988 and now it is in the critical level for impulsive wave labeling invalidation. Any breakout higher above the level of 1.1000 - 1.1010 will invalidate the impulsive green count and the area of supply at the level of 1.1066 - 1.1078 will be in view. On the other hand, any failure at the current level would result in a downtrend resumption and the first clue would be golden channel breakout to the downside.


Support/Resistance:


1.1066 - 1.106 - Supply Zone


1.1023 - 78%Fibo


1.1010 - 1.1000 - Invalidation Level


1.0991 - Intraday Resistance


1.0955 - Weekly Pivot


1.0952 - Intraday Support


1.0902 - WS1


Trading recommendations:


Sell limit orders should be opened from the level of 1.0988 with SL above the level of 1.1011 and TP at the level of 1.0857. Additional sell stop orders should be opened from the level of 1.0949 with SL above the level of 1.1011 and TP at the level of 1.0857.

Technical analysis of EUR/JPY for April 14, 2014 Trend News


Technical outlook and charts setups:


1. The EUR/JPY is just seen to be breaking out of consolidation support line around the 140.50/60 levels as seen here. A push below 140.00 levels would accelerate downside further. Any intraday/interday rally should be well capped below 143.00 levels (consolidation resistance). It is recommended to remain short, risk remains 144.00.


2. Support is at 140.00, followed by 138.50, 136.00 (all intermediary), 134.00 and lower, while resistance is at 143.00, followed by 143.50/70, and 145.50 respectively.


3. The structure indicates that the EUR/JPY remain under pressure for now and a subsequent break below the 140.00 levels, should be further bearish. A larger 3 wave correction is possible towards 130.00 levels.


Trading recommendations:


Remain short, set stop at 144.00, target is open.


Good luck!

Technical analysis of EUR/JPY for April 14, 2014 Trend News

General overview for 14/04/2014 08:15 CET


The corrective cycle is still in progress and anticipated wave (c) blue to the downside has been fully developed. The weekend retail gap will provide the intraday resistance and as long as it holds, there is a very little chance for any upside developments. Because the current labeling might indicate a possible wave B green, one other shape might be in progress currently as well - the triangle pattern. This would mean more complex and time consuming wave development both to the upside and to the downside without any particular direction for some time.


Support/Resistance:


140.00 - WS1


140.40 - Intraday Support


140.91 - Weekly Pivot


140.83 - 141.05 - Retail Weekend Gap


141.45 - 141.54 - Supply Zone


141.82 - WR1


Trading recommendations:


The key level for intraday traders is the level of 140.40 as any breakout to the downside will put the recent swing low to the test. In that case sell stop orders should be opened from the level of 140.39 with SL above the level of 140.84 and TP at the level of 140.00.
