Technical analysis of USD/JPY for May 29, 2015 Market Analysis Review

Fundamental overview: USD/JPY is expected to consolidate in a lower range after hitting the 12.5-year high of 124.46 on Thursday. USD/JPY is undermined by the softer USD sentiment (ICE spot dollar index last 96.87 versus 97.29 early Thursday) as more-than-expected 282,000 US jobless claims in the week ended May 23 (versus forecast 272,000) offset stronger-than-expected 3.4% increase in the US April pending home sales (versus forecast +1.0%). USD/JPY is also weighed by the lower shorter-dated US Treasury yields (2-year at 0.628% versus 0.652% late Wednesday), diminished investor risk appetite (VIX fear gauge rose 0.3% to 13.31, S&P 500 closed 0.13% lower at 2,120.79 overnight) following a steep drop in the Chinese stocks Thursday (Shanghai Composite Index plunged 6.5%), Japan's exports and profit-taking on long-USD positions ahead of the weekend. But USD sentiment is soothed by the comments from Fed's Williams that the US central bank is likely to raise interest rates this year and start the gradual process of the monetary policy normalization. USD/JPY losses are also tempered by the demand from the Japanese importers and the Bank of Japan's ultra-loose monetary policy.

Technical comment:

The daily chart is still 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 124.30 and the second target at 124.80. In the alternative scenario, short positions are recommended with the first target at 122.85 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 122.45. The pivot point is at 123.40.

Resistance levels: 124.30 124.80 125.50

Support levels: 122.85 122.45 121.70

Technical analysis of USD/CHF for May 29, 2015 Market Analysis Review

Fundamental overview:

USD/CHF is expected to trade in a lower range. It is undermined by the softer USD sentiment (ICE spot dollar index last 96.87 versus 97.29 early Thursday) as more-than-expected 282,000 US jobless claims in the week ended May 23 (versus forecast 272,000) offset stronger-than-expected 3.4% increase in the US April pending home sales (versus forecast +1.0%). The pair is also supported by the franc demand on cross trades versus major currencies. But USD/CHF losses are tempered by the negative Swiss interest rates, the threat of the Swiss National Bank to carry out CHF-selling intervention and positions adjustment ahead of the weekend.

Technical comment:

The daily chart is mixed as the MACD is bullish, but stochastics is bearish at overbought levels.

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 0.9335. A break of that target will move the pair further downwards to 0.9280. The pivot point stands at 0.9480. 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 0.9515 and the second target at 0.9550.

Resistance levels: 0.9515 0.9550 0.9610

Support levels: 0.9335 0.9280 0.9245

Technical analysis of NZD/USD for May 29, 2015 Market Analysis Review

Fundamental overview:

NZD/USD is expected to consolidate with bearish bias after hitting the four-year low of 0.7127 on Thursday. It is undermined by the contagion from the weak Aussie after disappointing Australian Q1 capital expenditure data, diminished investor risk appetite, and the 1.7% drop in the New Zealand April building consents. The pair is alsoo bosted by soft dairy prices, the kiwi sales on the buoyant EUR/NZD cross, and speculation that the RBNZ would cut interest rate in the coming months. But NZD/USD losses are tempered by the softer USD sentiment, NZD-USD interest differential, and positions adjustment ahead of the weekend.

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 0.7090. A break of that target will move the pair further downwards to 0.7030. The pivot point stands at 0.7210. 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 0.7270 and the second target at 0.730.

Resistance levels: 0.7270 0.73 0.7350

Support levels: 0.7090 0.7030 0.7

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

EUR/NZD : analysis for May 29, 2015 Market Analysis Review

Overview:

Recently, EUR/NZD has been trading upwards. As we expected, the price tested the level of 1.5411 in a high volume. The short-term trend is bullish. According to the daily time frame, we can observe demand in a high volume with a strong price action. According to the H1 time frame, the price had tested the level of 1.5400 and we saw a weak price action, which is a sign of potential bearish correction. Buying looks risky since we are in the bullish trend and we got strong bullish activity in the background. Anyway, watch for potential buying opportunities after the bearish correction (buy on dips). Major resistance is at 1.5400. So, watch for buying opportunities above the level of 1.5400. If the price breaks the level of 1.5400 in a high volume, the resistance levels will be set at 1.5460 and 1.5800.

Fibonacci Pivot Points:

Resistance levels:

R1: 1.5280

R2: 1.5350

R3: 1.5460

Support levels:

S1: 1.5060

S2: 1.4990

S3: 1.4880

Trading recommendations: Be careful when selling EUR/NZD at this stage since we can observe strong a bullish activity (volume) in the background and broken supply trendline.

EUR/AUD intraday technical levels and trading recommendations for May 29, 2015 Market Analysis Review

The weekly chart illustrates a 10-month bullish swing that extended between price levels of 1.2200 and 1.5800.

For several times, Fibo level 50% of the same bullish swing has provided significant support for the EUR/AUD pair.

Successive signs of a bearish pressure have been shown on the chart. However, the bullish breakout above the depicted downtrend was executed on April 30.

For a few weeks, the EUR/AUD pair has been trapped between the levels of 1.4000 and 1.4350 (Prominent daily resistance corresponding to previous daily tops).

If price zone of 1.4350-1.4400 remains defended by bears, a bearish pullback should be expected towards 1.4000 shortly after.

On the other hand, daily fixation above 1.4350 (range breakout) is likely to pause the long-term bearish tendency of the market.

It exposes higher price levels such as 1.4444 and 1.4550 for a quick visit.

Gold : analysis for May 29, 2015 Market Analysis Review

Overview:

Gold has been trading sideways around the level of $1,189.00. The short-term trend is neutral. I found strong trading range between the levels of $1,192.00 and $1,183.00. According to the daily time frame, we can observe a very high volume and weak price action. Also, the price is testing our demand trendline (support). Our Fibonacci retracement 50 % at the level of $1,187.00 was successfully held. If the price breaks the level of $1,183.00, the support levels will be at $1,178.00 and $1,167.00. Anyway, I found a strong shake-out in an ultra-high volume (false breakout) of our support at the level of $1,183.00, which is a sign that selling at this stage looks risky. I am still waiting for a clear breakout, but my selling looks more risky because of strong shake-out.

Daily Fibonacci pivot points:

Resistance levels:

R1: 1,192.00

R2: 1,195.00

R3: 1,200.00

Support levels:

S1: 1,182.45

S2: 1,180.00

S3: 1,174.50

Trading recommendations: The price is in a trading range (sideways). Wait for a clear breakout in a high volume to confirm further direction.

GBP/USD intraday technical levels and trading recommendations for May 29, 2015 Market Analysis Review

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, the broken support zone (price zone of 1.5500-1.5450) failed to hold the current bearish momentum.

It should now be acting as an Intraday resistance when further retesting takes place.

On the other hand, price levels of 1.5150 and 1.5100 are now exposed to be visited very 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. SL should be set as daily closure below 1.5080.

USD/CAD intraday technical levels and trading recommendations for May 29, 2015 Market Analysis Review

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. Early signs of bearish reversal are now manifested on the chart (inverted hammer daily candlestick).

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.

Intraday technical levels and trading recommendations for GBP/USD for May 29, 2015 Market Analysis Review

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 a significant bearish pressure was previously applied on February 22.

Two weeks ago, the market has already pushed above the weekly supply at 1.5530 (50% Fibo level) and slightly above 1.5720 (FE 100%) until the 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 swing. It gives more time for sideways movement with a bearish tendency.

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 1.5100 failed to keep prices below. Moreover, it constituted a prominent demand zone for the GBP/USD pair while trending within the depicted bullish channel.

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.

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 1.5450 (lower limit of the broken channel) is needed to maintain the current bearish momentum.

A bullish pullback towards 1.5450, will probably offer a valid sell entry for those who missed the initial breakout.

Initial bearish targets would be located at 1.5250 and probably at 1.5100 (Depicted Demand Level) where a short-term buy entry may be offered.

Intraday technical levels and trading recommendations for EUR/USD for May 29, 2015 Market Analysis Review

The market was pushed lower after breaking below the major demand levels around 1.2100 and 1.2000 where historical bottoms were previously hit 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 possible.

The obvious bearish breakout of the weekly demand level at 1.1100 allowed the price 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 took place towards 1.0800 -1.0830 where a valid buy entry was suggested. S/L should be advanced to 1.0800 to offside any associated risk.

Note that the zone of 1.1000-1.1100 is the nearest supply zone to meet the EUR/USD pair. The price action around this zone should be considered for long-term positions.

Technical analysis of GBP/USD for May 29, 2015 Market Analysis Review

The cable has been extending losses for 5 consecutive days. At yesterday's session, the cable drifted below 100Dema, but close above that at the end of the day. The pair has been hovering at 10Dema for 2 days.

The UK GDP was estimated to increase by 0.3% in the first quarter of 2015, unrevised from the previous estimate of GDP published on April 28, 2015. Besides, US unveiled strong data.

Today does understandably a quiet day on the markets owing to lack of macroeconomic data. We have a number of high-impact US data releases to look forward to, starting with the US prelim GDP q/q.

Technical view: Ahead of today's major US data, the cable is trading at 1.5320 compared to Thursday's closing price of 1.5315. It lost 1.4% over this week. The weekly support is found at 1.5150 20Wsma. Monthly gains turn to losses. The cable lost more than 3%. On a monthly basis, resistance at 1.5555 looks strong. In the H1 and H4 charts, lower lows and lower highs formation is expanding. Today's close will provide clear picture for the near term.

Intraday support is found at 1.5300 and 1.5250. We recommend safe selling 1.5240 with targets at 1.5200/1.5190 and 1.5150.The selling pressure is expected below 1.5300, a stronger pressure is likely to take place below 1.5240. Risky traders can sell below 1.5300 with an immediate target at 1.5250. In case the US GDP misses the forecast, the pound bulls will aim at 1.5400 initially and at 1.5470/1.5500 later. In this case, buying is available above 1.5350 with targets at 1.5385 and 1.5400. In the extreme case, bulls are likely to aim at 1.5440 and 1.5470. There is a small probability of short covering ahead of the weekend.

At the Asian session, the pair was trading at 1.0958 compared to Thursday's closing price of 1.0948. For bears, selling opportunity will arise below 1.0860, at 1.0820 and 1.0800. The real selling will emerge only below 1.0785 towards 1.0730 and 1.0650. Weekly resistance is seen at 1.1075 20sma. Until bulls manage to hold 1.0800, they will aim at 1.1070 or even 1.1100.

#USDX technical analysis for May 29, 2015 Market Analysis Review

The US Dollar Index reversed lower as expected. There were signs of a pending reversal a couple of days ago as the extended rise in the US Dollar Index was reaching important resistance levels. The area around 93.10 is of great importance for the bullish scenario. I believe that the pullback will help the price reach 96 and the uptrend will resume. I remain neutral for the short term.

The US Dollar Index is above the Ichimoku cloud in the 4-hour chart. The trend is bearish in the medium term. In the short term, we expect some weakness that could bring the index towards the 38% retracement of a rise from 93.10 that coincides with the 61.8% retracement of a rise from 94.80. This level is at 96. The area between 96.60 and 96 is important short-term support.

In the daily chart, the US Dollar Index paused its rise right at the lower cloud boundary resistance. The index is expected to pullback towards the black area of support, which used to be a resistance level. So, this back test should bring the index towards the area of 96.50-96.

On a weekly basis, the metal lost 1.5% and managed to hold gains on a monthly basis. We expect big moves towards $1,230/$1,243 or $1,143.00 in June.

Mixed US data provided mild support to the gold bulls. In the week ended May 23, the figure for seasonally adjusted initial claims was 282,000, printing an increase of 7,000 from the previous week's revised level. Pending home sales rose in April for the fourth straight month and reached their highest level in nine years, according to the National Association of Realtors.

Today, traders eye the prelim GDP q/q. Ahead of the major event, the metal opened on a bullish note. The trading pattern at the level of $1,187 acts as the key level. The strong support is found between $1,180.00 and $1,178.00. Intraday resistance is seen at $1,190.00 and $1,192.00. The selling opportunity is seen below $1,183.00 at $1,180.00 and $1,177.00. The real selling ignites below $1,177.00 towards $1,172.00 and $1,170.00. The key support is found at $1,165.00. In case bears manage to break $1,165.00 in the next week or two, we expect $1,144.00. For bulls, buying opportunity is likely to arise above $1,192.00 with targets at $1,195.00, $1,197.50, and $1,200.00. Bulls are likely to regain strength above $1,204.50 towards $1,208.00,$1,211.00, and $1,214.00. We can observe positive divergence in the four-hour chart.

Gold technical analysis for May 29, 2015 Market Analysis Review

Gold price remains above the support area of $1,180-85, increasing chances to move towards $1,200. My longer-term view remains bearish. Critical long-term support is seen at $1,130.

Red line - support trend line

Gold price has held above the red upward sloping trendline from $1,140. Gold is showing signs of a possible bounce towards at least $1,200. Resistance by the Ichimoku cloud is at $1,200-$1,205. Support is at $1,185. The trend remains bearish as the price continues to make lower lows and lower highs.

The weekly chart remains bearish. The price remains below the cloud resistance and below both the kijun- and tenkan-sen indicators (yellow and red line). If this week closes below the red line, there will be increased chances of a push towards the bottom area of $1,130-$1,140. This is important support. If it gets broken, the way down towards $1,000 will be open.

Technical outlook and chart setups:

Gold triggered stops at $1,180.00 yesterday before pulling back sharply. The metal is trading at the leve; of $1,188.00 at the moment. It tested its trendline support and fibonacci 0.786 levels yesterday. Bulls should remain poised to push prices higher from here on until the metal stays above $1,168.00.

Elliott wave analysis of EUR/NZD for May 29 - 2015 Market Analysis Review

Technical summary:

A break above minor resistance at 1.5109 warned us that the correction in wave (ii) has already terminated at 1.4927 and a new impulsive rally in wave (iii) is developing. The first target for wave (iii) is seen at 1.6310 where the wave (iii) will be equal in length to the wave (i). This means that as an expanded flat wave (ii) is seen, we should look for an extension in wave (iii) with the first target at 1.7154. So, that will be the first target to look for.

Short-term minor support at 1.5277 will ideally protect the downside for a break above 1.5405.

Wave (i) was a textbook five wave rally. But it's wave three where the real money is made, as this wave is normally very powerful and corrections tend to be small. Wave three is the wonder to behold!

Trading recommendation:

We are long EUR from 1.5080 and will move our stop higher to 1.5180. If you are not long EUR yet, then buy EUR near 1.5277 with the same stop at 1.5180.

Elliott wave analysis of EUR/JPY for May 29 - 2015 Market Analysis Review

Technical summary:

The rally of a low of 133.07 continues to unfold impulsively. In the short term, we will ideally see minor support at 135.43 protecting the downside for a continuation higher to 136.50 and even 137.17 before a correction of the first impulsive cycle, which is expected.

Even if the minor support at 135.43 gets broken, back-up support is found just below at 135.11, which should be able to protect the downside for the next move higher.

Trading recommendation:

We are long EUR from 134.20. Will move our stop higher to 134.65. If you are not long EUR yet, then buy near 135.43 with the same stop at 134.65. Take profit should be placed at 137.00 in both cases.

Technical analysis of EUR/JPY for May 29, 2015 Market Analysis Review

Technical outlook and chart setups:

The EUR/JPY pair pulled back marginally from 136.00 levels and is trading around 135.60/70 levels for now. The pair is expected to resume its down swing extension up to at least 130.00 or lower. A break below 135.00 could accelerate downside momentum. It is hence recommended to remain short from yesterday and also look to move further to the area around 136.00 again, with risk at 137.00. Immediate support is seen at 135.00 (interim) followed by 134.00, 133.00, 131.50, and lower. Resistance is seen at the level of 136.50 (interim) followed by 137.00 and higher respectively.

Trading recommendations:

Remain short for now, stop is at 137.00, a target is open.

Good luck!

Technical analysis of EUR/JPY for May 29, 2015 Market Analysis Review

General overview for 29/05/2015 08:00 CET

Apart from the Elliott wave count there is another important pattern emerging in the H4 time frame: head and shoulders reversal pattern with clearly defined levels. Currently, the price is consolidating around the left shoulder and 61%Fibo zone. So, the possibility of a downside move from the current level is quite high. Only a clear breakout above the recent high at the level of 136.94 invalidates both the count and technical pattern.

Support/Resistance:

136.12 - 78%Fibo

135.66 - 135.47 - Key Zone

135.34 - Intraday Support

135.23 - WR1

Trading recommendations:

Daytraders should consider opening sell orders from the current market levels with SL orders should be placed very tight above the level of 135.97 and TP orders should be placed at the level of 135.08 with a possible downside extension.

General overview for 29/05/2015 07:45 CET

A corrective cycle has been extended to the upside a little bit, but overall wave progression is still indicating an uncompleted downward cycle labeled as wave c purple on the chart. Two first target levels are already projected: the first one is the intraday support at the level of 1.2395 and the second one is grey rectangle area between the levels of 1.2356 - 1.2376. Any breakout lower would mean that the technical support at the level of 1.2312 will be tested.

1.2546 - WR2

1.2458 - WR1

1.2395 - Intraday Support

1.2356 - 1.2376 - Support Zone

Daytraders should consider opening sell orders only is the intraday support at the level of 1.2359 is violated. The SL orders should be placed very tight (20-30 pips) and TP orders should be placed at the level of 1.2321.

Daily analysis of USDX for May 29, 2015 Market Analysis Review

As we have been expecting, USDX is currently doing a corrective move in favor of the bullish trend at the daily chart. it also formed a fractal around the resistance level at 98.08, which could be advising us about a possible sideways consolidation for a few days. Now, 200 SMA is still bullish and the MACD indicator is in positive territory.

The USDX still has support at the level of 96.90 where it could perform an intraday rebound until the resistance level at 97.60. The resistance is located around a weekly high. For now, we should expect more corrective movments, but the bullish trend is still alive and we should find some bullish patterns in a coming week to trade.

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 / 97.60

H1 chart's support levels: 96.90 / 96.53

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 97.16, take profit is at 97.60, and stop loss is at 96.70.
