Daily analysis of USDX for January 29, 2014 Market Analysis Review

Yesterday, the FOMC minutes were published and the USDX had a bullish momentum above the support level of 94.18. Besides, a fractal was formed next to that zone. Currently, the USDX is still following the bullish bias. So, the instrument could reach the resistance level of 95.45 in the nearest time. At the moment, the 200 SMA and MACD indicator are still bullish.


USDXDaily.png

On the H1 chart, the USDX made a successful breakout at the resistance level of 94.38, the USDX is on the way to reach the resistance level of 94.78 in the coming hours. If the USDX makes a breakout to that zone, it would be expected to rise until the resistance level of 95.05. Fron the intraday view, the USDX still has strength to continue building the bullish road.

Daily analysis of GBP/USD for January 29, 2015 Market Analysis Review

During yesterday's session, the GBP/USD pair had a bearish day, closing the price below the important resistance level of 1.5247. We're still aware of a possible breakout on that zone, but the pair is still being pushed to the downside, because of lack of the bullish momentum from the technical view. Besides, the GBP/USD pair could fall again to the support level of 1.5025.


GBPUSDDaily.png

The GBP/USD pair did a rebound at the 200 SMA on the H1 chart and is still respecting the bullish trend line, that is currently serving as support on the pair. Furthermore, the GBP/USD pair could rise again until the psycological level of 1.5200, where the pair has to make a breakout in order to reach the resistance level of 1.5264, with a 1:1 risk and reward trade.

Technical analysis of USD/CAD for January 29, 2015 Market Analysis Review

The pair moved to 6-year high and closed at the highest point of the day. Today in early Asia's session, the pair was unable to breach the previous day's high. We recommend fresh buying above 1.2540. After the FOMC meeting, the pair gained 130 pips at yesterday's session. The Federal Reserve was more hawkish than expected. Today, the focus has shifted to US unemployment claims. Tomorrow, it's a big day for this pair. The Canadian GDP and US flash GDP are due. This month the pair gained more than 900 pips. The pair has the nearest resistance at the 1.2714 levels. The pair has intraweek support at 1.2460 and 1.2385. The pair has an hourly support at the 1.2440 levels. We can expect selling pressure below 1.2440 with the target at 1.2380.

Technical analysis of GBP/JPY for January 29, 2015 Market Analysis Review

The yen rose against most major pairs. At yesterday's session, the pair rejected at 20Dsma. Today, at Asia's early session the pair managed to hold the previous day's low. The pair has been consolidating for 3 consecutive weeks between 180.55 and 175.83. The pair has strong support at 175.30 or 50Wsma. In case a weekly close is below this, the pair can attract more room in downside towards 173.50. This month, the pair breaks below the 200Msma, but it manages to trade above it. On the weekly chart, the pair closed below the 20Wsma and made a minor double top at 180.53. On the H4-chart, the prices are closed and trading below hourly moving averages. We can observe a descending triangle on the H4-chart. So, on this chart the prices are consolidating at the 177.65 levels. The intraday resistance exists between 178.50 and 178.80. We can see strong momentum towards 180.20, in case if the pair breaches above 179.40. Today, the focus has shifted to Japan's retail sales data. We recommend fresh selling only below 177.60 levels with the targets at 177.20, 177.00, and 176.50.

Daily analysis of major pairs for January 29, 2015 Market Analysis Review

EUR/USD: The situation on this pair is nearly similar to that of EUR/JPY. From the beginning of this week, the market moved upward by roughly 300 pips, reaching the resistance line at 1.1400. From that line, the market has begun another phase of bearish movement in conjunction with the overall bias – which is bearish.


1422486503_1.png

USD/CHF: As it is expected, this special pair has moved upwards this week – in a slow and gradual manner. The price has moved upwards by more than 400 pips, topping at 0.9161 before the current minor retracement. The top at 0.9161 is expected to be breached upwards this week or next week, allowing further bullish movement in the market.


1422486531_2.png

GBP/USD: It is getting clear that the price on this currency trading instrument may not be able to go above the distribution territory at 1.5200. The probability of this trading instrument becoming weaker this week or next week is very high; plus a movement below the accumulation territory at 1.5050 would confirm just that.


1422486550_3.png

USD/JPY: This pair continues to be characterized by short-term upswings and downswings. Right now, the price is below the EMA 11 and the RSI period 14 is below the level of 50, leading to a weak Bearish Confirmation Pattern on the chart. The next short-term downswing could take the price towards the demand level at 117.00.


1422486571_4.png

EUR/JPY: The EUR/JPY pair has become weak in the near-term. From the beginning of this week, the market moved upward by roughly 400 pips, reaching the supply zone at 134.00. From that zone, the market has begun another phase of bearish movement in conjunction with the overall bias which is bearish.

EUR/AUD intraday technical levels and trading recommendations for January 28, 2015 Market Analysis Review

euraudweek.png1422457753_eurauddaily.png

The depicted DAILY chart of the EUR/AUD pair reflects a steep medium-term downtrend initiated on December 17.


The WEEKLY chart shows a long-term Head and Shoulders reversal pattern with neckline roughly located around 1.4050. Approximate long-term projection target would be located around 1.2850.


Note the broken SUPPORT level at 1.4250 where the previous multiple prominent bottoms were established back in November 2014. It is now acting as ab Intraday resistance. It applied multiple bearish rejections during the last weeks.


On the other hand, a bearish FLAG pattern is being established above 1.4050 (Head &Shoulders pattern's neckline). Early confirmation requires DAILY closure below 1.4200-1.4220. Estimated projection target would be located around 1.4090 and 1.4000.


On the other hand, the daily persistence above 1.4250 pauses the current bearish momentum giving more time for a corrective movement towards 1.4400 to take place.

GBP/USD intraday technical levels and trading recommendations for January 28, 2015 Market Analysis Review

gbpusddailly.pnggbpusdmic.png

Overview:


On December 17, the market failed to express a bullish breakout above the upper limit of the daily bearish channel. Shortly after, an extensive bearish pressure was applied against the price levels of 1.5540-1.5560 on December 23.


The daily closure below the recent bottoms established around 1.5540-1.5560 rendered the previous consolidation range as a bearish flag pattern with projection target at 1.5300.


The market has already pushed further below this level reaching down to 1.5030-1.4980 where the lower limit of the channel has been providing support for the pair over the past few weeks.


Bullish recovery is manifested on the H4 chart. A bullish breakout above the upper limit of the short-term flag pattern took place earlier yesterday.


The key-support level for today is the price level of 1.5120 (backside of the upper limit of the recently broken H4 channel).


Trading outside the H4 flag pattern (above 1.5120) enhances bullish side of the market at least towards 1.5260.


Trading recommendations:


The price zone of 1.5280-1.5350 (50% - 61.8% Fibonacci Levels and the upper limit of the daily channel) should be watched for new SELL entries with SL located slightly above 1.5400.

1422456268_GOLDDaily28.png

GOLDH128.png


Overview :


Since our last analysis gold has been trading downwards. The price has tested the level of 1,283.03 in an ultra high volume. According to the daily time frame, we got weak demand in a volume below the average, what caused price to start with bearish corrective phase.

USD/CAD intraday technical levels and trading recommendations for January 28, 2015 Market Analysis Review

cadweekly.png1422455574_caddaily.png

Overview:


The USD/CAD pair established a temporary consolidation zone between the price levels of 1.1560 and 1.1670. This price zone roughly corresponds to 61.8% prominent WEEKLY Fibonacci level. Bullish breakout above it allowed bulls to reach new highs around 1.2490.


The market looks quite overbought since bulls have pushed further above the upper limit of the depicted bullish channels. Hence, high probability of bearish reversal exists.


The daily chart indicates a high probability of bearish reversal especially after a hanging man daily candlestick followed by the yesterday's bearish engulfing daily candlestick.


The nearest SUPPORT zone to meet the USD/CAD pair is located around 1.2015 - 1.1950 where a recent consolidation zone was established as well as the broken upper limit of the depicted channel that waits for retesting.


On the other hand, if bulls keep defending the recent INTRADAY SUPPORT around 1.2300, a new bullish swing may be established without further retesting of 1.1950.


Trading recommendations:


LONG positions are suggested at retesting of the new SUPPORT zone around 1.2015-1.1950. SL should be located below 1.1900. TP to be placed at 1.2100 and 1.2220.

Intraday technical levels and trading recommendations for EUR/USD for January 28, 2015 Market Analysis Review

1422453840_eurusdmon.png

The market has been pushing lower aggressively after breaking below the major DEMAND LEVELS around 1.2100 and 1.2000 where historical bottoms were previously established back in July 2012 and June 2010.


This month, EUR/USD bears have been challenging historical lows that were established back in 2005 and 2003. Some bullish recovery is finally being witnessed this week.


The pair has lost almost 800 pips since the beginning of 2015. Moreover, theoretical long-term bearish targets would be located near 0.9450, especially after the monthly breakout below 1.2000 was confirmed.


eurusddaily.png


On the daily chart, the market looks oversold below the price level of 1.2000 and 1.1900 (prominent psychological SUPPORT and the lower limit of the movement channel on the daily chart).


As it was suggested in previous articles, conservative traders should be waiting for a bullish pullback looking for better prices to SELL the pair off.


Fundamentally, the pair is showing little movement ahead of the FOMC statement which will be released later.


The federal reserve will be spotted today with the release of policy statement by the end of a two-day meeting.


The price zone of 1.1540-1.1600 is a recently established SUPPLY zone. Short-term SELL positions can be taken there. Stop loss should be placed slightly above the price level of 1.1680.


BUYING the pair is considered a low-risk opportunity following such a steep decline, especially after the yesterday's candlestick (bullish engulfing). Bulls should be conservative with their targets as the pair is in a frank long-term downtrend.

EUR/NZD analysis for January 28, 2014 Market Analysis Review

EURNZDDaily28.png1422454161_EURNZDH428.png

Overview:


In our last analysis EUR/NZD was trading downwards. As we expected, the price tested the level of 1.5134 in a volume below the average. I have placed Fibonacci retracement to find potential resistance levels and got Fibonacci retracement 61.8% at the price of 1.5225 that was held successfully. According to the 4H time frame, we got lack of demand in the backround around the price of 1.5225, which caused price to start with bearish movement. Be careful when buying EUR/NZD and watch for potential selling opportunities after retracement. Any larger supply in a high volume may confirm further bearish phase. Anyway, if we see larger demand on the market, we may expect testing of the level of 1.5430.


Daily Fibonacci pivot levels:


Resistance levels:


R1: 1.5286


R2: 1.5329


R3: 1.5399


Support levels:


S1: 1.5146


S2: 1.5103


S3: 1.5033


Trading recommendations: Be careful when buying the EUR/NZD pair since our Fibonacci retracement 61.8% is held successfully

Intraday technical levels and trading recommendations for GBP/USD for January 28, 2015 Market Analysis Review

gbpusddaily.png


The previous consolidation movement extended between the price levels of 1.5550 and 1.5770, it represented a period of indecision of the market after such a long bearish rally that started off 1.7100 and 1.6500.


Bearish breakout below 1.5550 directly exposed lower targets. Bears have already reached the price levels of 1.5050 and 1.4960 which have not been visited since July 2013.


As it was suggested in the previous articles, conservative traders should wait for a bullish pullback towards the recent SUPPLY zone around 1.5370-1.5450 for a low-risk SELL entry. The stop loss should be located above 1.5500 (upper limit of the channel).


gbpusdh4.png


A bearish breakout scenario, similar to what happened back in October, was successfully executed by the end of December 2014.


The market has already pushed further below the price level of 1.5140 (projection target of the bearish breakout) reaching the lower limit of the depicted bearish channel around 1.5000.


On January 8, the GBP/USD pair has shown initial bullish recovery off the price level of 1.5050. However, this was followed by a bearish spike reaching the price level of 1.4950 (slightly above the upper limit of the depicted channel).


As anticipated, bullish rejection was expressed around the price level of 1.4950. This enhances the bullish side of the market at least towards 1.5250-1.5300 where we can take low risk SELL entries as mentioned above.

Technical analysis of USD/CAD for January 28, 2015 Market Analysis Review

General overview for 28/01/2015 14:35 CET


The impulsive wave progression might have been finished with an ending diagonal structure in the last wave v black, and now the market might continue to go lower. Nevertheless, any golden trend line breakout and a new high above the level of 1.2498 invalidate this point of view and make the next weekly resistance at the level of 1.2698 in view.


Support/Resistance:


1.2698 - WR1


1.2498 - Swing High|Intraday Resistance|


1.2375 - Intraday Support


1.2320 - Weekly Pivot


1.2309 - Intraday Support


1.2181 - WS1


Trading recommendations:


After the golden trend line breakout daytraders might consider opening sell orders with SL above the level of 1.2501 and TP at the level of 1.2310.

Technical analysis of EUR/JPY for January 28, 2015 Market Analysis Review

General overview for 28/01/2015 14:15 CET


The very well defined intraday resistance at the level of 134.21 still keeps a lid on any market rallys. This is why any breakout higher above this level will be crucial for market to define the low for the wave 3 black. Current wave progression looks like a beginning of a zig-zag shaped corrective cycle due to its impulsive development. To continue higher with this kind of progression, the market must bounce from the intraday support at the level of 132.46 or 131.83 and make a new local high above the level of 134.21.


Support/Resistance:


130.14 - Swing Low


131.83 - Intraday Support


132.46 - Intraday Support


132.95 - Intraday Support


134.21 - Intraday Resistance


134.99 - WR1


Trading recommendations:


As long as the market trades below the level of 134.21, choppy trading conditions are expected, as the market might be making wave 4 black in shape of a triangle or any other corrective shape. Any breakout higher above the level of 134.21 is bullish; buy orders should be opened with SL below one of the intraday support levels.

Technical analysis of AUD/USD for January 28, 2015 Market Analysis Review

1422439695_audusdh1.png

Overview :



  • The price of AUD/USD pair has been set below the double top (0.8127) since January 22, 2015. Also, it should be noted that the price has formed a strong resistance level of 0.8127 thata represents the golden ratio of Fibonacci retracement levels on the H1 chart. Furthermore, this strong level has still been moving between 23.6% of Fibonacci retracement levels and 61.8% at the same time frame. Additionally, the AUD/USD pair will be trapped between the prices of 0.8127 and 0.7960. Therefore, the trend will probably be fallen from the level of 0.8130 extended further to as low as 0.8020 today. Hence, the market will probably start showing signs of bearish market again in order to indicate the bearish opportunity from the level of 0.8130 to 0.8020 with targets towards the strong support around 0.7960. Meanwhile, the bears were forced to pull back at the level of this area; therefore, this level will form a strong support at 0.7910 in order to indicate a bullish opportunity above the support, However, the stop loss should always be taken into account for that it is very safe to set the stop loss at the level of 0.8168.

Technical analysis of EUR/USD for January 28, 2015 Market Analysis Review

1422438841_eurusdh1.png

Overview :



  • The double top of the EUR/USD pair will be set at the level of 1.1576 and the double bottom is going to be set at 1.1114 level.

  • The strong resistance has been already placed at the same price of the double top around the area of 1.1576 which represents the 61.8% of Fibonacci retracement levels in H1 chart.

  • The major support is going to be set at 1.1202 on January 28, 2015.

  • So, according to the previous events, the price of the EUR/USD pair is going to move between 1.1202 and 1.1576.

  • We expect a range of 274 pips this week.

  • The level of 1.3332 is representing the weekly pivot point.

  • Therefore, it will be very useful to sell below the prices of 1.1576/1.3332 in the short-term with the first target at 1.1200; but if the trend is able to break the major support at 1.1200, it might resume to 1.1114 in order to test the double bottom again.

#USDX technical analysis for January 28, 2015 Market Analysis Review

The Dollar index continued to lower yesterday, as expected, towards 94 and towards my important daily support at 93.75. Longer-term trend remains bullish, but the short-term top at 95.50 is now an important resistance.


usdx.jpg

On the 4-hour chart shown above the Dollar index remains above the Ichimoku cloud support and is testing the kijun-sen support (yellow line). Resistance is found at 95. If it is broken, we will have increased chances of a new brea out to new highs. The support at 94-93.75 could provide an upward reversal.


usdxd.jpg

The daily chart remains bullish as the price is testing the daily ichimoku tenkan-sen indicator at 93.50-93.75. If this support is broken on a daily basis we should expect a move towards 92.50. The longer-term trend remains bullish. However, bulls should be very cautious if the level of 92.50 is broken.

Gold technical analysis for January 28, 2015 Market Analysis Review

Gold price is holding above support at $1,275-80. If we look at the medium-term chart, we observe that we are at important support. There are increased chances of rising to $1,330 if we hold above yesterday's lows. Otherwise we will test $1,220.


goldh4.jpg

Red line = support


The 4-hour chart above shows Gold price above the red upward sloping trend line support and above the Ichimoku cloud support. However, Gold price is below the tenkan-sen and the kijun-sen. Short-term resistance is found at $1,298. Breaking above it will increase the chances of rising to $1,330. Breaking below $1,272 will increase the chances for a move towards $1,220.


goldd.jpg

On the daily chart, Gold price remains above the tenkan-sen indicator (purple line) and looks like it was making a shallow pullback before the resumption of the uptrend towards $1,330. I remain bullish as long as this trading instrument is holding above yesterday's lows. The target is at $1,330. If we break support, I expect the kijun-sen (yellow line) to be tested.

Technical analysis of USD/JPY for January 28, 2015 Market Analysis Review

USDJPYM30.png

Fundamental overview:

USD/JPY is expected to consolidate with risks skewed lower as markets await 1900 GMT Federal Reserve monetary policy decision, the Fed isn't expected to make any change in monetary policy but market participants will be interested in any change in wording, especially to the phrases "considerable time" and the Fed "can be patient." USD/JPY is undermined by the weaker dollar sentiment (ICE spot dollar index last 93.96 versus 94.97 early Tuesday) on selloff in U.S. stocks (S&P 500 closed down 1.34% at 2,029.55 overnight), positions adjustment before the FOMC statement. Surprise 3.4% on-month drop in U.S. December durable goods orders (versus forecast +0.3%) and weaker-than-expected 4.3% on-year rise in U.S. November S&P/Case-Shiller 20-city home price index (versus forecast +4.6%) outweighed stronger-than-expected rise in U.S. Conference Board consumer confidence index to 102.9 in January from December's 92.6 (versus forecast 95.1), larger-than-expected 11.6% increase in U.S. new home sales to 481,000 in December (forecast +3.0%) and stronger-than-expected U.S. January flash services PMI of 54.0 (versus forecast 53.8 and December's 53.3). USD/JPY is also weighed by Japan's export sales and reduced hopes for extra monetary easing steps by the Bank of Japan after Economy minister Akira Amari said the BOJ wasn't constrained by a two-year schedule for achieving its 2% inflation target; flows to haven yen amid increased risk aversion (VIX fear gauge rose 10.95% to 17.22) on disappointing U.S. corporate earnings, caution before FOMC decision, and lingering concerns about a potential showdown between Greece's new government and its international creditors. But USD/JPY losses are tempered by the demand from Japan's importers and ultra-loose Bank of Japan's monetary policy.


Technical comment:
Daily chart is mixed as MACD is bearish but stochastics is neutral. T


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 118.50 and the second target at 118.85. In an alternative scenario, if the price moves below its pivot points, short position is recommended with the first target at 117.20. A break of this target would push the pair further downwards and one may expect the second target at 116.80. The pivot point is at 117.55.

Technical analysis of USD/CHF for January 28, 2015 Market Analysis Review

USDCHFM30.png

Fundamental overview:
USD/CHF is expected to consolidate with bullish bias after hitting eight-day high 0.9166 on Tuesday as markets await the U.S. FOMC interest rate decision. USD/CHF is underpinned by the franc sales on cross trades versus major currencies, the negative Swiss interest rates and the threat of the SNB CHF-selling intervention. But USD/CHF gains are tempered by the weaker dollar sentiment (ICE spot dollar index last 93.96 versus 94.97 early Tuesday) on selloff in the U.S. stocks (S&P 500 closed down 1.34% at 2,029.55 overnight), positions adjustment before the FOMC statement. At the same time surprise 3.4% MoM drop in the U.S. December durable goods orders (versus forecast +0.3%) and 4.3% YoY rise in the U.S. November S&P/Case-Shiller 20-city home price index (versus forecast +4.6%) outweighed rise in the U.S. Conference Board consumer confidence index to 102.9 in January from December's 92.6 (versus forecast 95.1), 11.6% increase in the U.S. new home sales to 481,000 in December (forecast +3.0%) and the U.S. January flash services PMI of 54.0 (versus forecast 53.8 and December's 53.3).


Technical comment:
The daily chart is mixed as the MACD is in bearish mode, but stochastics are turning bullish.


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 0.9125 and the second target at 0.92. In an alternative scenario, if the price moves below its pivot points, short positions are recommended with the first target at 0.8840. A break of this target would push the pair further downwards, and one may expect the second target at 0.8750. The pivot point is at 0.8905.

Daily analysis of major pairs for January 28, 2015 Market Analysis Review

EUR/USD: This pair has already moved upwards by over 250 pips this week, starting from the support line at 1.1100. A movement above the resistance line at 1.1500 would render the existing dominant bias (bearish) useless, as another long-term bullish journey may begin.


1.png

USD/CHF: As it is expected, this special pair has moved upwards this week – in a slow and gradual manner. The price has moved upwards by more than 400 pips, topping at 0.9161 before the current minor retracement. The top at 0.9161 is expected to be breached upwards this week or next week, allowing further bullish movement in the market.


2.png

GBP/USD: The Cable has moved upwards so far this week, putting the recent bearish outlook in jeopardy. From the accumulation territory at 1.5000, the price has moved upwards by more than 200 pips, pushing against the distribution territory at 1.5200. A movement above the distribution territory at 1.5300 would mean the end of the recent bearish outlook.


3.png

USD/JPY: It is better to assume a short-term trading approach in this market, because the price is now swinging up and down on short-term basis. There is a supply level at 119.00 and a demand level at 117.00.


4.png

EUR/JPY: Despite the fact that this market has moved upwards by more than 400 pips this week, it remains a bear market. The EMA 56 is above the EMA 11 and the RSI period 14 is still below the level 50. Unless the price goes above the supply zone at 136.00, the signal is “sell.”

GBPJPYM30.png

Fundamental overview:
GBP/JPY is expected to consolidate in a higher range as markets await the U.S. FOMC interest rate decision. GBP/JPY is supported by the improved euro sentiment and demand from Japan's importers. But GBP/JPY gains are tempered by the flows to haven yen amid increased risk aversion and the Japanese exporters.

Technical analysis of NZD/USD for January 28, 2015 Market Analysis Review

NZDUSDM30.png

Fundamental overview:
NZD/USD is expected to consolidate with bearish bias as markets await the U.S. FOMC interest rate decision and the Reserve Bank of New Zealand interest rate decision at 20:00 GMT. The currency pair is supported by the weaker dollar sentiment. But NZD/USD upside is limited by the increased risk aversion and expectations that the RBNZ will keep its rates for longer.


Technical comment:

The daily chart is mixed as the MACD is bearish, five-day moving average is below 15-day moving average and is declining, but stochastics is turned bullish at oversold levels.


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 the pivot point. Short positions are recommended with the first target at 0.74. A break of this target will move the pair further downward to 0.7325. The pivot point stands at 0.75. In case the price moves in the opposite direction and bounces back from the support level, it will move above its pivot point. It is likely to move further to the upside. According to that scenario, a long position is recommended with the first target at 0.7580 and the second target at 0.7625.
