Elliott wave analysis of EUR/JPY for May 28 - 2015 Market Analysis Review

2015-05-28-EURJPY-4H.png

Technical summary:

A break above the minor resistance line from the wave (i) high at 136.96 has been broken. The top of wave b at 135.35 has been broken too, indicating that the next impulsive rally higher in wave (iii) towards at least 144.03 is developing.

In the short-term, we will look for minor support at 134.72 to protect the downside for a break above 135.49 on the way higher to 136.96 and above towards 144.03. A break above the base channel resistance line near 139.00 will call for acceleration higher as wave (iii) is likely to extend beyond a target at 144.03.

Trading recommendation:

We are long EUR from 134.20 and will place our stop at 133.60. If you are not long EUR yet, buy near 135.00 or upon a break above 135.49 with the same stop at 133.60.

Technical analysis of Gold for May 28, 2015 Market Analysis Review

The yellow metal is extending losses for 2 consecutive weeks. After a big fall at Tuesday's session, it was mild gains at the end of yesterday's session. Stronger USD puts pressure on the metal. Today, data on US unemployment claims and pending home sales are due. We expect positive readings from the US. Greece is another major factor. In June, Greece must repay 1.6 billion euros to IMF. Greece is unlikely to be able to repay without a deal.

Yesterday, the metal held the support at $1,183.00 bounced a bit. At today's Asian session, the metal was trading at $1,187.00 compared to Wednesday's closing price of $1,187.50. The support is found at $1,183.50 100.00FE, low made $1,183.40. At our Tuesday's article, we advised selling below $1,198.00 with targets at $1,191.00, $1,185.00, $1,182.00,$1,178.00,$1,173.00, and $1,166.00. We recommend fresh selling below $1,182.00. Optically the metal has been making positive divergence in the hourly chart. Intraday resistance is seen at $1,191.00, $1,195.00, and $1,197.50. Risk buying trade is available above $1,192.00 aiming at $1,195.00 and $1,197.00.

Daily analysis of USDX for May 28, 2015 Market Analysis Review

The daily outlook is telling us about the possibility of a sideways consolidation in favor of a bullish bias. Currently, the USDX is doing a kind of pullback and is testing the support zone of 96.97. From that level, it could start another rally which could last until the resistance level of 98.08, where another strong resistance is located.

USDXDaily.png

In our short-term outlook, the Index is still doing some corrective moves in favor of a very strong bullish bias in the H1 chart. The current structure is still calling to the upside, as the USDX is trading above the 200 SMA. For now, we should expect a test of the resistance level of 97.60, but it won't be strange to see a pullback until the level of 96.90.

USDXH1.png

Daily chart's resistance levels: 98.08 / 98.64

Daily chart's support levels: 96.97 / 95.74

H1 chart's resistance levels: 97.16 / 97.97

H1 chart's support levels: 97.16 / 96.90

Trading recommendations for today: Based on the H1 chart, place buy (long) orders only if the US Dollar Index breaks with a bullish candlestick; the resistance level is at 97.60, take profit is at 97.97, and stop loss is at 97.25.

Daily analysis of GBP/USD for May 28, 2015 Market Analysis Review

At the daily chart, GBP/USD is still trading in favor of the bearish bias, testing the support zone of 1.5346. We're still expecting more lower continuation because the pair is about to consolidate in the downwards view, at least in the medium term. For now, there is still a high risk of a possible rebound at the current levels.

GBPUSDDaily.png

GBP/USD is trying to consolidate below the level of 1.5358 because it could fall until the support level of 1.5259. Also, the pair is about to form another lower low pattern again, because the bearish bias in an intraday outlook remains very strong. The 200 SMA at the H1 chart is pointing to the downwards and the MACD indicator is still in positive territory, but showing signs of weakness.

GBPUSDH1.png

Daily chart's resistance levels: 1.5543 / 1.5745

Daily chart's support levels: 1.5346 / 1.5199

H1 chart's resistance levels: 1.5443 / 1.5513

H1 chart's support levels: 1.5358 / 1.5259

Trading recommendations for today: Based on the H1 chart, place sell (short) orders only if the GBP/USD pair breaks a bearish candlestick; the support level is at 1.5358, take profit is at 1.5259, and stop loss is at 1.5459.

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

EUR/USD: This pair is in a downtrend and the present upwards bounce in the market would be seen as an opportunity to sell short when the price rallies and in the context of a downtrend. With the continuation of the current bias, the support line at 1.0800 may be attained this week or next week.

1432767428_1.png

USD/CHF: This currency trading instrument has maintained its upwards journey, and irrespective of any equilibrium phase and/or correction along the way, the price could continue going upwards as long as USD has stamina. In addition, some fundamental figures are expected today and they may have some impact on the market.

1432767465_2.png

GBP/USD: The cable is also weak with a clean Bearish Confirmation Pattern in the market. The EMA 11 is below the EMA 56 and the RSI period 14 is below the level of 50. The price is likely to continue its downward journey.

1432767547_3.png

USD/JPY: The USD/JPY pair has continued its significant journey to the upside, battering the supply level at 124.00. This supply level could even be breached to the upside as the price targets another supply level at 125.00. The expectation would be valid as long as USD has stamina.

1432767598_4.png

EUR/JPY: The price action has made the market situation dicey. There is a threat to the recent bearish bias and it would be worthwhile to wait and see what the price would do next. A break above the supply zone at 136.00 would invalidate the existing bearish outlook.

Intraday technical levels and trading recommendations for GBP/USD for May 27, 2015 Market Analysis Review

gbppweekly.png

Evident bullish recovery emerged from the area around 1.4550 where a significant bullish engulfing weekly candlestick was expressed.

As mentioned before, persistence above the levels of 1.5000-1.5080 exposed the weekly supply zone of 1.5500-1.5550 (roughly corresponding to weekly 50% Fibonacci level), where significant bearish pressure was previously applied on February 22.

Last week, the market has already pushed above the weekly supply at 1.5530 (50% Fibo level) and slightly above 1.5720 (FE 100%).

However, evident bearish pressure was applied around 1.5800, resulting in the depicted bearish engulfing weekly candlestick.

Note that persistence below the weekly supply at 1.5530 (corresponding to 50% Fibo level) hinders the ongoing bullish trend. It gives more time for sideway movement with bearish tendency. 1432738954_gbpdaily.png

Sideways movement with a slight bearish tendency had been expressed on the daily chart until the bullish breakout took place above 1.4970-1.5000 (via a long-term bullish reversal pattern).

The price zone between 1.5000 and 1.5050 failed to keep prices below. Moreover, it now constitutes a prominent demand zone for the GBP/USD pair.

It offered a valid buy entry for retesting that took place last week.

A daily closure above the weekly supply zone of 1.5500-1.5530 exposed the next supply level located at 1.5720 (100% Fibonacci Expansion of the recent bullish swing) where evident bearish pressure was applied. So, a bearish pullback took place towards 1.5500 on Tuesday.

Bearish breakout off the depicted bullish channel took place on Friday as a result of the evident bearish pressure that emerged at the level of 1.5660.

Persistence below 1.5470 is needed to maintain the current bearish momentum.

Initial bearish targets would be located at 1.5250 and probably 1.5100. On the other hand, consolidation above 1.5550 invalidates the current bearish scenario.

EUR/NZD analysis for May 27, 2015 Market Analysis Review

EURNZDDaily27.png

EURNZDH127.png

Overview:

Recently, EUR/NZD has been trading downwards. The price tested the level of 1.4991 in an ultra high volume (selling climax). The short-term trend is neutral. According to the daily time frame, we can observe weak supply and reversal up-thrust bar (bullish). According to the 30-minute time frame, the price again rejected from our Fibonacci expansion 100% (1.4950) in a high volume. Be careful when selling EUR/NZD since we may see bullish movements. The first strong resistance is around the level of 1.5040.

Fibonacci Pivot Points:

Resistance levels:

R1: 1.5075

R2: 1.5110

R3: 1.5164

Support levels:

S1: 1.4962

S2: 1.4927

S3: 1.4872

Trading recommendations: Be careful when selling EUR/NZD at this stage since we can observe strong bullish activity (volume) in the background and rejection from our support.

Technical analysis of USD/JPY for May 27, 2015 Market Analysis Review

USDJPYM30.png

Fundamental Overview: USD/JPY is expected to consolidate with bullish bias after hitting almost an eight-year high of 123.33 on Tuesday. USD/JPY is underpinned by the positive dollar sentiment (ICE spot dollar index last 97.24 versus 96.45 early Tuesday) on stronger-than-expected US May CB consumer confidence of 95.4 (versus forecast 95.0), larger-than-expected increase of 6.7% in the US April new home sales to 517,000 (forecast +6.0% to 510,000), and upward revision of the US March durable goods orders from +4.4% to +5.1%. The pair is also boosted by continued impact from Fed Chair Yellen's comments that the central bank was on track to raise interest rates this year. USD/JPY is also supported by the demand from Japan's importers and the ultra-loose monetary policy of the Bank of Japan's. But USD/JPY gains are tempered by the Japanese exports and lower US Treasury yields (10-year fell to 2.142% from 2.229%), flows to the safe-haven yen amid increased risk aversion (VIX fear gauge rose 15.91% to 14.06; S&P 500 closed 1.03% lower at 2,104.2 overnight) as worries mount that Greece will be unable to pay back loans to the International Monetary Fund due next month.

Technical comment: The daily chart is positive-biased as the MACD is bullish, stochastics stays elevated at overbought levels, 5 and 15-day moving averages are advancing.

Trading recommendations:

The pair is trading above its pivot point. It is likely to trade in a wider range as long as it remains above its pivot point. As long as the price holds above its pivot point, long positions are recommended with the first target at 124.15 and the second target at 124.40. In the alternative scenario, short positions are recommended with the first target at 122.45 if the price moves below its pivot points. A break of this target is likely to push the pair further downwards, and one may expect the second target at 121.70. The pivot point is at 122.85.

Resistance levels: 124.15 124.40 124.75

Support levels: 122.45 121.70 121.35

Technical analysis of USD/CHF for May 27, 2015 Market Analysis Review

USDCHFM30.png

Fundamental overview: USD/CHF is expected to consolidate with bullish bias after hitting almost a monthly high of 0.9540 this morning. It is underpinned by positive dollar sentiment, the negative Swiss interest rates, and the threat of the Swiss National Bank to carry out CHF-selling intervention. But USD/CHF gains are tempered by the franc demand on the soft EUR/CHF cross.

Technical comment: The daily chart is positive-biased as the MACD and stochastics are bullish, although the latter is at overbought levels. Ffive-day moving average is above 15-day moving average and is advancing.

Trading recommendations:

The pair is trading above its pivot point. It is likely to trade in a wider range as long as it remains above its pivot point. As long as the price holds above its pivot point, long positions are recommended with the first target at 0.96 and the second target at 0.9650. In the alternative scenario, short positions are recommended with the first target at 0.9335 if the price moves below its pivot points. A break of this target is likely to push the pair further downwards, and one may expect the second target at 0.9280. The pivot point is at 0.940 .

Resistance levels: 0.96 0.9650 0.97

Support levels: 0.94 0.9335 0.93

Intraday technical levels and trading recommendations for EUR/USD for May 27, 2015 Market Analysis Review

eurmonth.png

The market was pushed lower 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.

The EUR/USD pair lost almost 1,500 pips since the beginning of 2015. Moreover, the EUR/USD bears have already pushed the market slightly below the monthly demand level of 1.0550 (established on January 1997).

The previous monthly closure had a negative impact on the EUR/USD pair. However, April's monthly candlestick came as a bullish engulfing candle as depicted on the chart.

In the long term, bearish breakdown of the monthly demand level at 1.0550 should not be excluded as the long-term breakout target is roughly projected towards the level of 0.9450.

On the other hand, a bullish corrective movement towards 1.1500 and 1.1600 is still probable especially if intraday demand zone (1.1150-1.1100) remains defended by bulls.

1432736886_eurdaily.png

The obvious bearish breakout of the weekly demand level at 1.1100 allowed the market to fall dramatically shortly afterwards.

After such a long bearish rally (which started around the levels of 1.1300), bullish rejection was expressed at 1.0570 (monthly demand level).

A bullish continuation pattern with an ascending bottom was established around the level of 1.0650.

That is why, bears failed to hinder the ongoing bullish momentum around the key zone of 1.1150-1.1050 on April 29. Temporal bullish fixation above 1.1100 took place shortly after.

Further bullish advancement was enhanced until bearish pressure was applied around 1.1450 (just below the depicted supply level of 1.1500).

This week, a bearish pullback is taking place towards 1.0800 -1.0830 where a valid buy entry can be offered. S/L should be set as daily closure below 1.0770.

Note that the price zone of 1.1000-1.1100 is now the nearest SUPPLY zone to meet the EUR/USD pair if enough bullish momentum is developed.

Gold analysis for May 27, 2015 Market Analysis Review

GOLDDaily27.png

GOLDH127.png

Overview:

Gold has been trading downwards. As we had expected, the price tested the level of $1,183.51 in a high volume. The short-term trend is beairsh. The price broke the strong support cluster at $1,201.00 and we may expect further bearish direction. We can observe a sign of weakness (SOW) after a breakout of trading range, which signals that buying looks risky. Our Fibonacci retracement 61.8% at the level of $1,192.00 got broken. Support levels are at the price of $1,178.00 and $1,167.00.

Daily Fibonacci pivot points:

Resistance levels:

R1: 1,203.00

R2: 1,208.50

R3: 1,217.40

Support levels:

S1: 1,185.20

S2: 1,179.70

S3: 1,170.80

Technical analysis of NZD/USD for May 27, 2015 Market Analysis Review

NZDUSDM30.png

Fundamental overview: NZD/USD is expected to trade with bearish bias. It is undermined by the positive dollar sentiment, soft dairy prices, and speculation that the RBNZ would cut interest rate in the coming months. But the kiwi sentiment is soothed by the larger-than-expected New Zealand April trade surplus of NZ$123 million (versus forecast NZ$98 million). NZD/USD losses are also tempered by the kiwi demand on the soft AUD/NZD cross and NZD-USD interest differential.

Technical comment: The daily chart is negative-biased as the MACD is bearish, stochastics stays suppressed at oversold levels, 5 and 15-day moving averages are falling.

Trading recommendations: The pair is trading below its pivot point. It is likely to trade in a lower range as long as it remains below the pivot point. Short positions are recommended with the first target at 0.7185. A break of that target will move the pair further downwards to 0.7150. The pivot point stands at 0.7270. 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, long positions are recommended with the first target at 0.730 and the second target at 0.7325.

Resistance levels: 0.73 0.7325 0.7355

Support levels: 0.7185 0.7150 0.71

GBP/USD intraday technical levels and trading recommendations for May 27, 2015 Market Analysis Review

gbppdaily.png

Overview:

On March 2, a bearish breakdown of the lower limit of the previous daily channel occurred enhancing the bearish side of the market.

Persistence below the zone of 1.4950-1.5000 indicated a further bearish decline towards 1.4700.

Shortly after, the bearish trend was resumed towards the level of 1.4550 where a lower daily bottom was established.

Evident bullish recovery emerged at 1.4560 pushing the GBP/USD pair above the level of 1.4700, then successive higher highs were established.

As anticipated, the daily closure above 1.5060 exposed the next resistance levels at 1.5400 and 1.5450 where extensive bearish pressure was previously applied.

This enhanced the bearish side of the market towards the levels of 1.5300, 1.5250, and 1.5100 where the most recent bullish swing was initiated on May 5.

On the other hand, the price zone of 1.5750-1.5800 (critical resistance zone) offered a valid sell entry almost two weeks ago. Final bearish target at 1.5450 was already reached.

Moreover, a lower high was recently established at 1.5660 on Friday. That is why, intraday support-1 (price zone of 1.5500-1.5450) failed to hold the current bearish momentum.

It should be acting as intraday resistance when further retesting takes place.

On the other hand, the price levels around 1.5300 and 1.5150 are now expected to be visited soon.

The nearest support zone to meet the pair is located around 1.5080-1.5100. It should be watched for low risk BUY entries.

Technical analysis of GBP/JPY for May 27, 2015 Market Analysis Review

GBPJPYM30.png

Fundamental outlook: GBP/JPY is expected to consolidate with bullish bias. It is undermined by the weak GBP sentiment, increased investor risk aversion, and Japan's exports. But GBP/JPY downside is limited by buoyant USD/JPY undertone and demand from the Japanese importers.

Technical comment: The daily chart is mixed as the MACD and stochastics are bearish, five-day moving average is below 15-day moving average and is declining. Bullish outside-day-range pattern was completed on Tuesday.

Trading recommendations: The pair is trading above its pivot point. It is likely to trade in a wider range as long as it remains above its pivot point. As long as the price holds above its pivot point, long positions are recommended with the first target at 190 and the second target at 190.60. In the alternative scenario, short positions are recommended with the first target at 188.60 if the price moves below its pivot points. A break of this target is likely to push the pair further downwards, and one may expect the second target at 187.80. The pivot point is at 189.20.

Resistance levels: 190.60 191.20 191.75

USD/CAD intraday technical levels and trading recommendations for May 27, 2015 Market Analysis Review

cadweekly.pngcaddaily.png

Overview:

Since bulls pushed the price further above the upper limit of both depicted bullish channels and the 79.6% Fibonacci level, the market looked quite overbought. That is why the price failed to hold above 1.2650 - 1.2680 (previous highs) resulting in the formation of a Triple-top pattern.

Successive lower highs were established within the depicted consolidation zone enhancing the bearish side of the market.

Support levels around 1.2350 and 1.2300 (79.6% Fibonacci level) were broken after providing significant support for several weeks on the daily and weekly charts.

A daily fixation below 1.2300 cleared the way for the USD/CAD pair towards the levels of 1.2000 and 1.1940 (projection target of the recent range breakout and the depicted weekly uptrend).

That is why, significant bullish support was offered around these price levels. Since then, a bullish pullback has been taking place.

The price zone of 1.2350-1.2400 remains significant intraday resistance to be watched.

This price zone will probably offer a low-risk sell entry provided that the weekly candlestick closure comes below the price level of 1.2430.

Trading recommendations:

Risky traders have taken a suggested BUY entry near the level of 1.1950. All T/P levels have already been reached. S/L should be advanced to 1.2240 to offset any associated risk.

Conservative traders can take a valid SELL entry anywhere around 1.2400 (the current price levels are less risky). S/L should be set as WEEKLY candlestick closure above 1.2450.

T/P levels should be placed at 1.2220, 1.2100 and 1.1950.

Technical analysis of NZD/USD for May 27, 2015 Market Analysis Review

NZDUSDDaily.png

Trading recommendation:

  • According to the previous events, the NZD/USD pair has still trapped between the level of 0.7176 and 0.7372 in the daily chart.
  • Strong resistance will be formed at the level of 0.7372, providing a clear signal for sell deals with a target seen at 0.7176 in order to test the double bottom. Stop loss is to be placed above 0.7401.
  • Strong support will be formed at the level of 0.7180 providing a clear signal for buy deals with a target at 0.7280.

Observations:

  • The weekly resistance will be set at the level of 0.7280. Also, it should be noted that the double top is expected at 0.7372.
  • The weekly support is seen at 0.7180. Also, the double bottom is expected at 0.7176.
  • If the trend is upward, the strength of the currency pair will be defined as following: NZD is in uptrend and USD is in 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 trapping and going up or down. If you sell or buy for a long term in this period, you will surely lose your profit.

Technical analysis of AUD/USD for May 27, 2015 Market Analysis Review

AUDUSDH4.png

Overview:

  • The resistance of the AUD/USD pair was set at the level of 0.7773 and the support is found at 0.7682. So, according to the previous events, the AUD/USD pair will be traded between the resistance and the support. As a rule, history will probably repeat itself at this level again. Therefore, we expect a range about 91 pips on May 27, 2015. Accordingly, if the trend fails to close below the level of 0.7773, then it will be a good opportunity to sell below the level of 0.7773 with the first target at 0.77700, then it will be continued straight towards 0.7682 in coming minutes.The stop loss should always be taken in account because it should never exceed your maximum exposure amounts. Hence, the best location to set your stop loss should be placed above the resistance of 0.7780.

Observations:

  • The Risk of 60 pips must make a profit of 91 pips.
  • The value of 38.2% Fibonacci retracement levels is: 0.7773.
  • Volatility: 172.84. As a rule, the market is highly volatile if the previous day had a huge volatility.
  • In the short term, the support is likely to be found at the level of 0.7682 and the resistance is seen at 0.7773.
  • 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.

EUR/CAD rejected support on daily char Market Analysis Review

While EUR/CAD tested a low of 1.3025 on April 17 following a sharp upward correction, it formed a bullish divergence on the RSI oscillator. This could be an indication that the correction is not over yet and pair could be reaching new highs. But, it has to break above already formed resistance near 1.3750.

After the first corrective wave up, the pair retraced back to the 38.2% Fibonacci that is applied to a low of 1.3025 (back on April 17) and a high of 1.3807 (back on April 17). On the daily chart, EUR/CAD rejected S1 (closed above). At the same time, it has nearly tested 50% retracement level marked S2. Finally, the pair formed a doji candle and just broke above its high suggesting the price is ready to rise.

Consider buying EUR/CAD near a high of the doji candle that is 1.3567. The pair is expected to form a triple top near the level of 1.3750 where strong resistance can be observed. Only a break below S2 (1.3416) would be able to push the price lower to S3 (1.3323).

Support: 1.3567, 1.3507, 1.3416, 1.3323

Resistance: 1.3623, 1.3751, 1.3807

Technical analysis of EUR/JPY for April 27, 2015 Market Analysis Review

General overview for 27/05/2015 09:55 CET

There are two possible scenarios on the intraday chart. Both scenarios depend on the key level violation. The first main count scenario indicates that wave (ii) green is completed and wave i blue is in place. So, the current upside rally is only a minor, internal corrective cycle that should terminate below the intraday resistance at the level of 134.50 and continue lower. On the other hand, alternative count indicates a more complex corrective structure in wave (ii) green and a breakout which is likely to take place above the intraday resistance in order to complete wave c green is of the overall structure. In both scenarios the key level is intraday support at the level of 133.65 because any breakout lower will be considered bearish.

Support/Resistance:

133.08 - Technical Support

133.65 - Intraday Support|Key Level|

134.29 - Weekly Pivot

134.50 - Intraday Resistance

135.23 - WR1

135.31 - Technical Resistance

Trading recommendations:

Daytraders should consider opening sell orders from the current levels with SL just above the level of 134.51 ant TP at the level of 133.65. Please notice that even greater sell-off in this market can happen if the lower technical support at the level of 133.08 is violated.

#USDX technical analysis for May 27, 2015 Market Analysis Review

The US Dollar Index has made a short-term reversal and is showing signs of an imminent pullback. Bulls managed to reach the 61.8% retracement of the decline from 100 to 93.10 and a small pullback is justified here. The upward move from 93.10 is impulsive and this implies that it is more probable that a new upward move has started.

Green line= trend line support

The US Dollar Index has short-term support at 96.85 and more importantly at 96.40. Trendline support is at 96-95.80. I believe this is just another corrective pullback before the resumption of the uptrend. I remain longer-term bullish as long as we trade above 94.80.

Black area = support

The US Dollar Index has managed to break above the black resistance area that is now support. Bulls have also managed to break inside the Ichimoku cloud and are fighting to stay inside. This is a bullish signal. Daily support is found at 96 and at 95. I believe the correction ended at 93.10 and a new upward move has started. I remain bullish.

Gold technical analysis for May 27, 2015 Market Analysis Review

Gold price was pushed lower yesterday after the Leading Indicators numbers release and reached the support level of $1,185 by the upward sloping trendline. My longer-term view remains bearish as I believe that the area of $1,130-40 will be tested again once we break out of the trading range of $1,220-$1,175.

Red line = trend line support

As can be seen in the 4-hour chart above, the trendline that connects important lows was reached yesterday and support was held. However, the price is below the Ichimoku cloud, which means that the short-term trend remains bearish. Today, we could see a bounce towards $1,200, which is the 1st short-term resistance level. A breakout below $1,180 will not be a good sign.

The weekly chart remains bearish as the price was rejected once again at the kijun-sen and the price is trading below the tenkan-sen. The price also was rejected at the cloud resistance and this is another bearish sign. The weekly chart remains below the cloud and I believe in the longer-term we will see Gold price below $1,150-$1,130. This is critical support that if broken it can push price towards $1,000.The material has been provided by InstaForex Company - www.instaforex.com

Technical analysis of USD/CAD for May 27, 2015 Market Analysis Review

General overview for 27/05/2015 09:15 CET

The count has been slightly adjusted to incorporate an extended wave 5 blue to the upside that contributes to the overall impulsive wave progression and might end at the level of 1.2447. Currently, the market is likely to be ready to make some minor internal corrective cycle labeled on the chart as wave 2 blue. But this cycle might get complex. Grey area is the possible reversal zone for the wave a purple as a part of the corrective cycle. The projected target for the whole corrective structure is at the level of 1.2321.

Support/Resistance:

1.2458 - WR1

1.2447 - Swing High

1.2375 - Intraday Support

1.2356 - Intraday Support

1.2321 - Intraday Support

Trading recommendations:

Daytraders should consider opening buy orders if the price gets to the grey rectangle zone with SL just below the grey rectangle. Please notice that trading inside of a corrective cycle might get choppy and full of fake breakouts. So, we advise to wait for the corrective cycle to complete and then open buy orders.
