After the soft data had hit the wires, the cable drifted to a 4-month low testing its fortune near the short-term strong supports. The pair is trading just 20 pips away from the crucial support zone. As of now, in early Asia's session, the pair made a low of 1.6670 and trading at 1.6683.

General overview for 13/08/2014 16:30 CET


The yestrady's green wave b target has been hit to the pip. The anticipated upside rebound might actually have been completed as the whole corrective structure looks finished. The market is still trading in the bearish zone and further down slide in this pair is expected. The first confirmation of this view comes with the weekly pivot breakout and then failure on the intraday support at the level of 136.35.


Support/Resistance:


135.71 - Swing Low


135.80 - WS1


136.21 - Target Level #2

136.85 - Weekly Pivot


137.10 - Intraday Resistance


137.55 - Technical Resistance


Trading recommendations:


Day traders should consider closing or using trail stops on the long positions opened yesterday at the level of 136.21. The target of 137.33 is still possible but breakout below 136.85 should be the trigger to close this long orders.

Technical analysis of USD/JPY for August 13, 2014 Trend News

USDJPYM30.png


Overview:


USD/JPY is expected to trade in a higher range after hitting a three-day high at 102.37 on Tuesday. USD/JPY is undermined by unwinding JPY-funded carry trades amid diminished investor risk appetite (S&P 500 fell 0.16% to close at 1,933.75 overnight) on the weak sentiment data from Germany and festering geopolitical concerns over Ukraine and the Middle East. USD/JPY is also weighed by Japanese export sales. But the USD sentiment is boosted by the rise in U.S. NFIB's small-business optimism index to 95.7 in July from 95.0 in June. Besides, USD/JPY downside move is limited by the demand from Japanese importers, higher long-term U.S. Treasury yields (10-year yield last 2.449% versus 2.42% late Monday) and the broadly firmer dollar undertone (ICE spot dollar index last 81.52 versus 81.47 early Tuesday). Annual 'Obon' summer holiday (Aug. 13-15) in Japan: financial markets will not be officially closed during this period, but many domestic investors are expected to be absent, resulting in subdued trading activity.


Technical comment:

The daily chart is mixed as stochastics is neutral, MACD is turning bearish.


Trading recommendations:
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 long as the price is keeping above its pivot point, a long position is recommended with the first target at 102.55 and the second target at 102.75. In an alternative scenario, if the price moves below its pivot points, short positions are recommended with the first target at 101.95. A break of this target would push the pair further downwards and one may expect the second target at 101.65. The pivot point is at 102.15.

Technical analysis of NZD/USD for August 13, 2014 Trend News

NZDUSDM30.png


Overview:


NZD/USD is expected to consolidate with a bullish bias after hitting a two-month low at 0.8406 on Tuesday. It is undermined by the Kiwi sales on buoyant AUD/NZD cross, the waning investor risk appetite, the broadly firmer dollar undertone, weak dairy prices, reduced expectations of further rate hikes from the Reserve Bank of New Zealand this year as well as the official stance against strong Kiwi exchange rate. But NZD/USD losses are tempered by the NZD-USD interest differential. The daily chart is negative-biased as MACD is bearish, stochastics stays suppressed in the oversold zone, five and 15-day moving averages are declining.


Trading recommendations:
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 long as the price is keeping above its pivot point, a long position is recommended with the first target at 0.8485 and the second target at 0.8505. In an alternative scenario, if the price moves below its pivot points, short positions are recommended with the first target at 0.8395. A break of this target would push the pair further downwards and one may expect the second target at 0.8375. The pivot point is at 0.8445.

Technical analysis of USD/CHF for August 13, 2014 Trend News

USDCHFM30.png


Overview:


USD/CHF is expected to trade in a lower range after hitting a three-day high at 0.9104 on Tuesday. It is supported by the broadly firmer dollar undertone, dovish Swiss National Bank's monetary policy, and franc sales on soft CHF/JPY cross. But USD/CHF gains are tempered by the franc demand on soft EUR/CHF cross.The daily chart is mixed as MACD and stochastics is in a bearish mode, but five-day moving average is fkluctuating sideways above advancing 15-day MA.


Trading recommendations:


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 0.9030. A break of this target will move the pair further downwards to 0.9. The pivot point stands at 0.9090. In case the price moves in the opposite direction and bounces back from the support level, then it will 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 0.9115 and the second target at 0.9135.

Overview:

GBP/USD intraday technical levels and trading recommendations for August 13, 2014 Trend News

gbpdaiilll.jpggbp44hhh.jpg


Intraday resistance was established around 1.7150-1.7190. A short-term SELL position was suggested in the previous articles.


The price levels of 1.7050 - 1.7000 failed to provide enough support for the pair. Hence, the bears had potential bearish target around 1.6970 and then 1.6920.


DAILY fixation below 1.6980-1.7000 applied intensive bearish pressure on the price zone of 1.6920-1.6900 leading to its breakdown as well.


Bullish recovery was evident around 1.6800 - 1.6820 manifested during the previous visit (Monday's daily candlestick)


However, this price zone failed to provide support during the 2nd visit that took place on Friday exposing price level of 1.6765 for retesting.


As expected, prices levels around 1.6760 provided a valid BUY entry towards 1.6820.


Price levels around 1.6800-1.6820 offered a valid SELL as expected yesterday. SL should be set at daily closure above 1.6860.

USD/CAD intraday technical levels and trading recommendations for August 13, 2014 Trend News

caddaily.jpgcad4h.jpg


Since the USD/CAD pair failed to show enough bullish momentum above 1.1200 during the last visit on March 20, the pair has been downtrending within the depicted bearish channel, which managed to push towards the price zone between 1.0910-1.0850 (50-61.8% Fibonacci levels on the daily chart) where a prominent congestion zone was established.


As depicted on the chart, bullish rejection was expressed at retesting the lower limit of the bearish channel around 1.0630 (It's the origin of the previous bullish impulse initiated in December 2013 as well).


The USD/CAD pair has a strong resistance zone located between 1.0950 and 1.1020 (Fibonacci Levels 50% and 61.8% of the most recent bearish swing).


As we mentioned before, bearish rejection should be anticipated this week especially after such a long bullish rally that originated off 1.0650 and 1.0710.


Bearish rejection was manifested around the price level of 1.0970 (Fibonacci 50% level) where a Shooting-Star daily candlestick was expressed on Wednesday. Moreover, another bearish engulfing daily candlestick was expressed on Monday off the same levels (around 50% Fibonacci). This enhances the short-term bearish direction.


On the other hand, Daily fixation above 1.0950 (50% Fibonacci level ) enables the bulls to shoot towards 1.1020 and 1.1050 initially.

Intraday technical levels and trading recommendations on GBP/USD for August 13, 2014 Trend News

gbpdaily.jpg


Breakdown of the DEMAND level around 1.6975 allowed a quick decline of the GBP/USD pair towards the price zone of 1.6800-1.6820.


When retesting the price zone of 1.6800-1.6820, considerable bullish recovery took place. This bullish movement was stopped below 1.6880 when the bears applied considerable bearish pressure.


On Wednesday, the GBP/USD pair declined again towards 1.6770. This came after the release of the British manufacturing data, which came below expectations.


In case the bears keep applying bearish pressure, we expect the pair to break down the price level of 1.6760 (the previously broken top established in February 2014 ).


On the other hand, failure of the bears to fixate below 1.6760 will probably allow the bulls to initiate a bullish corrective movement towards 1.6820 and 1.6900 as well.


gbp4hh.jpg


A pattern of multiple tops was confirmed after breakdown of the depicted bullish channel when the price zone between 1.7140 - 1.7170 provided evident bearish price action.


The price zone of 1.6830 - 1.6800 remains a significant zone as it corresponds to the previous consolidation zone established in June as well as the upper limit of the ongoing bearish channel.


However, 4H fixation below this zone exposes the price levels around 1.6760 and 1.6730 to be hit shortly after.


Note that the GBP/USD pair has been down-trending for almost 20 days without significant correction.


Thus, any bullish fixation above 1.6820 invalidates the current steep trend allowing a deeper bullish retracement to occur.

EUR/NZD analysis for August 13, 2014 Trend News

EURNZDDaily13.png


EURNZDH413.png


Overview:


Since our last analysis, EUR/NZD has been trading sideways. The price was tested and rejected from the level of 1.5893 (Fibonacci retracement 61.8%). I have placed Fibonacci expansion to find potential end of a bullish corrective phase (abcd) and I got Fibonacci expansion 161.8% at the price of 1.5815. We can observe weak demand in a volume below the average according to the daily time frame, which is a sign that buying at this stage looks risky. Watch for potential selling opportunities. According to the previous price action, we got support at the price of 1.5625 (swing high like resistance). I have placed Fibonacci retracement from the most recent upward leg and I got Fibonacci retracement 38.2 % at the price of 1.5710. We are still waiting for larger movement and larger activity on this pair. Be careful when buying this pair and watch for potential selling opportunities.


Daily pivot Fibonacci points:


Resistance levels:


R1: 1.5886


R2: 1.5906


R3: 1.5938


Support levels:


S1: 1.5821


S2: 1.5801


S3: 1.5768


Trading recommendations: Be careful when buying the EUR/NZD pair and watch for selling opportunities after retracement.

GOLDDaily13.png


GOLDH413.png


Overview:


Since our last analysis, gold has been trading sideways, around the price of 1,310.00. We are still waiting for larger movement and larger volume (activity). According to the Daily time frame, we can observe shooting star candle and successful rejection from Fibonacci retracement 61.8%, which is a sign that buying looks risky. Anyway, if the price breaks the level of 1,321.00 in a higher volume, we may see the level of 1,343.00 is being tested. My advice is to watch for selling opportunities after retracement. According to the 4H time frame, we can observe that strong supply in a high volume has entered on the the maket.


Daily pivot Fibonacci points:


Resistance levels:


R1: 1,317.01


R2: 1,319.95


R3: 1,324.73


Support levels:


S1: 1,307.45


S2: 1,304.51


S3: 1,299.73


Trading recommendations: Buying Gold looks risky since we got successful rejection from our Fibonacci retracement 61.8%.

Technical analysis of NZD/USD for August 13, 2014 Trend News

nzdusdh4.png

Notes :



  • The double top of the NZD/USD pair will set at the level of 0.8506.

  • The support is going to set at 0.8404. And this level is going to represent the double bottom in the H4 chart.

  • The major support has already represented the weekly support one. Moreover, the double bottom also coincides with the major support and the strong support.

  • The price hit the weekly pivot point and support 1 last week, because of the series of relatively equal highs and equal lows.

  • We expect a range of 50 pips today.


Trading recommendations :



  • According to the previous events, the NZD/USD pair has still been moving between 0.8503 and 0.8420.

  • Sell at 0.8506 (the weekly resistance 1) with the first target at the 0.8440 price, then it will call for a downtrend in order to continue its bearish movement towards 0.8404 in order to test this strong support (it should be noted that the price of 0.8404 had already formed the double bottom).

  • At the same time, the stop loss should be placed at the level of 0.8543.

  • Buy above the price of 0.8400 in the short term (if the trend fails to close below it) with a target at 0.8455. We shouthe price of 0.8455.

Technical analysis of GBP/USD for August 13, 2014 Trend News

gbpusdh1.png

Overview :



  • The price of the GBP/USD pair has opened below the weekly pivot point (1.6809). Additionally, it should be noted that the double top is going to set at 1.6813 in H1 chart; the market was in a downtrend two weeks ago. Also, we should be aware that the resistance has set at the price of 1.6813 today. Therefore, the market will probably indicate a bearish opportunity at the level of 1.6809 in the long term. Also, the weekly pivot point will act as strong resistance on August 13, 2014 because support becomes resistance after breaking it yesterday. So, according to the previous events, the price is still moving between the levels of 1.6810 and 1.6725. Thus, the area below 1.6809 (below the weekly pivot point) looks for further downside with the first target at the 1.6730 level in order to form a new double top and continue towards 1.6691 to test support in H1 chart. The level of 1.6691 coincides with the ratio of 161.8% Fibonacci retracement levels. Notwithstanding, the stop loss should be placed at the price of 1.6833.

Elliott wave analysis of EUR/NZD for August 13, 2014 Trend News

2014-08-13-EURNZD-8H.png


Today's support and resistance levels:


R3: 1.5898


R2: 1.5866


R1: 1.5854


Current spot: 1.5835


S1: 1.5827


S2: 1.5814


S3: 1.5806


Technical summary:


Wave 1 ended early at 1.5898, just below our expected target of 1.5920. Wave 2 is now unfolding for a correction towards at least 1.5707 and possibly even lower towards the 1.5648 support. Once this wave 2 correction is over, we should be looking for a new powerful rally above the 1.5898 top for a rally towards at least 1.6203 and above here that will open up the upside for a much stronger rally in the longer term.


Trading recommendation:


Our stop at 1.5830 was hit for another nice profit. We will look for buying opportunties as wave 2 closes in on the 1.5648 - 1.5707 support area.

Elliott wave analysis of EUR/JPY for August 13, 2014 Trend News

2014-08-13-EURJPY-8H.png


Today's support and resistance levels:


R3: 137.06


R2: 136.88


R1: 136.79


Current spot: 136.72


S1: 136.61


S2: 136.55


S3: 136.36


Technical summary:


The b wave reaction is the level where we see deviation from its ideal target near 136.24 and ending at 136.36 (just six small pips from our buy target). However, as long as minor resistance at 136.88 protects the upside, there is still a small chance of yet another decline into our ideal target at 136.24 before the c-wave moves higher to 137.14. However, a direct break above 136.88 will call for a direct rally to 137.14 where we expect to find the top for the final decline to the ideal target at 134.34.


Trading recommendation:


We missed our buying opportunity. Instead, we will focus on selling EUR at 137.10 with a stop at 137.80.

#USDX Technical analysis for August 13, 2014 Trend News

The rise in the Dollar index is very fragile. A double top and a rejection at the previous highs is not a good sign for bulls. The upward sloping channel is being put to the test. The Dollar index is now testing important support levels.


usdx.jpg

In the short-term, the Dollar index is testing the top end of the Ichimoku cloud and the lower boundaries of the upward sloping channel. The double top is not a good sign for bulls. Support is found at 81.45 and at 81.35. Breaking below these levels will certainly push the index towards 81.20 and maybe 81. Resistance is found at 81.75. If broken, we will push towards 82.


usdxd.jpg

This is my wave count for the daily chart in the Dollar index. Is the upward impulsive move over? As long as price is inside the upward sloping channel, we assume wave 5 is not complete yet. If price breaks below 81.35 and closes for a day below that level, we assume that a correction will start that could push the index as low as 80.50. The trend remains up but it is fragile. The Dollar index is testing the support of the channel and bulls should be very cautious.

Gold Wave analysis for August 13, 2014 Trend News

Gold price is still inside a corrective wave pattern. We saw a rejection yesterday as we expected it below $1,320. Now, I expect the downward move to push for a final short-term low near $1,300. Currently, we are in wave C. I do not believe the correction is over because the rise from $1,305 to yesterday's highs is a corrective move as it consists of 3 waves. 3 waves show correction and not impulse.


goldh4.jpg

Price is above the Ichimoku cloud. As I mentioned in my previous analysis, after the 5 waves up from $1,280 to $1,322 I expect a three wave correction that will test the Ichimoku cloud support and possibly reach the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement.


goldd.jpg

In the daily chart as shown above, everything remains bullish as price is above the Ichimoku cloud and our expected target of $1,350 is still quite possible as the rise from $1,240 and the rise from $1,280 are impulsive waves. For now, bulls have the upper hand and I expect Gold price to rise at least in the near future. The long-term trend will be tested at $1,350 and $1,391.

The pair is trading at a 3-day high. The pair has a resistance at 1.6923 above this 1.6935 above these, it can spike up to 1.68825 (100DSma).

As of now, the pair made a double top at 171.99, currently it is trading at 171.85. The pair is trading at a 3-day high. We recommend to buy above 172 with the target of 172.30 and 172.70.

Support 171.40 171.20 170.70


Resistance 172 172.20 172.35


A day closure above 172.35 means that a strong momentum in the pair will be back.


Intraday 171.90


The pair is facing strong resistance at 172 (20hr high). On the down side, it has support at the 171.84 and 171.50 levels. We strongly recommend to buy above 172 only.
