Daily analysis of major pairs for July 24, 2015 Market Analysis Review

EUR/USD: The EUR/USD pair has rallied by about 200 pips this week. As a result, there is a 'buy' signal in the market. The resistance lines at 1.1050 and 1.1100 are potential targets for bulls within the next several trading days. In addition, the support lines at 1.0950 and 1.0900 should challenge any efforts to drag the price southward.

USD/CHF: Surprisingly, the USD/CHF pair did not come down as seriously as the EUR/USD has gone upwards. Nevertheless, inability of USD/CHF to go above the resistance level of 0.9650 means that bulls should be cautious whe trading on this market. In case the price fails to rally, there might be a further bearish correction.

2.png

GBP/USD: The сable dropped seriously on Thursday generating a bearish signal on the market. Long trades are currently not recommended because bears might target the accumulation territories around 1.5450 and 1.5400 today or next week.

3.png

USD/JPY: What is happening on this currency trading instrument signifies a serious battle between buyers and sellers. Although the recent bullish bias in the market remains intact, it looks wise to stay away from this instrument until there is a clean directional bias in the market. This clean directional bias should be seen today or next week.

4.png

EUR/JPY: There is a direct bullish signal on the EUR/JPY cross: the EMA 11 is above the EMA 56 while the RSI period 14 is above the level of 50. This is the beginning of a vivid Bullish Confirmation Pattern in the chart. The price could go further northward by at least 200 pips within the next several trading days.

Technical analysis of USD/JPY for July 23, 2015 Market Analysis Review

USDJPYM30.png

USD/JPY is expected to consolidate with risks skewed higher after hitting a nine-day low 118.88 on Thursday. It is underpinned by the reduced safe-haven appeal of the yen amid positive risk sentiment (VIX fear gauge eased 7.41% to 12.74; S&P 500 finished up 1.08% at record closing high 2,121.10 overnight) on fewer-than-expected 264,000 US jobless claim in the week ended May 9 (versus forecast 273,000) and signs of stability in bond markets after the recent sell-off as European Central Bank President Draghi reaffirmed his commitment to the massive bond-buying program aimed to stimulate the eurozone's economy. USD/JPY is also supported by the demand from Japan's importers and the Bank of Japan's ultra-loose monetary policy.

Technical comment:

The daily chart is still negative-biased as the MACD and stochastics are in bearish mode, five-day moving average is falling below 15-day moving average.

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 124.35 and the second target at 124.60. In the alternative scenario, short positions are recommended with the first target at 123.35 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 123.10. The pivot point is at 123.60.

Resistance levels: 124.35 124.60 124.90

Support levels: 123.35 123.10 122.65

Technical analysis of USD/CHF for July 23, 2015 Market Analysis Review

USDCHFM30.png

USD/CHF is expected to consolidate in a higher range after hitting a three-week low of 0.9226 on Wednesday. It is underpinned by franc sales on the buoyant EUR/CHF cross and soft CHF/JPY cross amid bullish yen sentiment, the negative Swiss interest rates, and the threat of the Swiss National Bank to carry out CHF-selling intervention.

Technical comment:

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

Trading recommendations:

As long as the price holds above its pivot point, long positions are recommended with the first target at 0.9615 and the second target at 0.9655. In the alternative scenario, short positions are recommended with the first target at 0.9535 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 0.95. The pivot point is at 0.9555.

Resistance levels: 0.9615 0.9655 0.9690

Technical analysis of NZD/USD for July 23, 2015 Market Analysis Review

NZDUSDM30.png

NZD/USD is expected to trade in a higher range. It is underpinned by weaker dollar sentiment, improved investor risk appetite, kiwi demand on the soft AUD/NZD cross, and NZD-USD interest differential. But NZD/USD gains are tempered by soft dairy prices and the expectations that the RBNZ would cut its interest rates in coming months.

Technical comment:

The daily chart is mixed as the MACD is bearish, 5 and 15-day moving averages are falling but stochastics is turning bullish at oversold levels.

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 0.6570 and the second target at 0.6550. In the alternative scenario, short positions are recommended with the first target at 0.6670 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 0.67. The pivot point is at 0.66.

Resistance levels: 0.6670 0.67 0.6750

Support levels: 0.6570 0.6550 0.6505

Technical analysis of GBP/JPY for July 23, 2015 Market Analysis Review

GBPJPYM30.png

GBP/JPY is expected to trade in a lower range. It is supported by the buoyant EUR/USD undertone and demand from Japan's importers. The GBP/JPY gains are tempered by the decreased investor risk appetite and the Japanese exports. The sterling sentiment is dented by a worse-than-expected drop in the UK March CBI industrial order book balance to zero in June from +10 in May (versus forecast of +9). The GBP/USD gains are also tempered by the waning investor risk appetite and sterling sales on the buoyant EUR/GBP cross.

Technical comment:

The daily chart is positive-biased as the MACD and stochastics are bullish, 5-day moving average is rising above 15-day moving average.

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 192.25. A break of that target will move the pair further downwards to 191.80. The pivot point stands at 193.30. 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 194 and the second target at 194.35.

Resistance levels: 194 194.35 194.70

Support levels: 192.25 191.80 191

USD/CAD intraday technical levels and trading recommendations for July 23, 2015 Market Analysis Review

cadweekly.pngcaddailllyy.png

Overview:

When bulls pushed the price further above 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 a formation of successive lower highs (within the depicted consolidation zone) enhancing the bearish side of the market.

Daily fixation below 1.2300 opened a way towards the levels of 1.2000 and 1.1940 (the depicted weekly uptrend).

Bullish support was found around these levels. Successive higher lows were established. Bullish pressure was applied against the resistance levels of 1.2450 and 1.2500 (previous tops).

On the other hand, the previous weekly candlestick came FRANK bullish. That is why, an extensive bullish movement is being seen on the chart.

A bullish breakout above the price zone of 1.2770-1.2800 has been executed.

The long-term bullish projection target would be located at the level of 1.3080 if enough bullish support is maintained.

Conservative traders can wait for a bullish pullback towards 1.2800 for a valid BUY entry with a low risk/reward ratio (Breakout level = Recent Support).

Intraday technical levels and trading recommendations for GBP/USD for July 23, 2015 Market Analysis Review

gbpweekly.png

Evident bullish recovery emerged from the area around 1.4550 where significant bullish engulfing weekly candlesticks were expressed.

Shortly after, persistence above the levels of 1.5000-1.5080 exposed the weekly key zone of 1.5500-1.5550 where significant bearish pressure was previously applied on February 22.

Last month, the market was pushed above this weekly key zone around 1.5550 in an attempt to reach the area around 1.5900, which provided evident supply for the GBP/USD pair.

As anticipated, a bearish pullback was executed towards the level of 1.5550. A bearish breakout below 1.5500 took place two weeks ago.

However, previous week's candlestick indicates bullish rejection besides a lack of strong bearish momentum below 1.5500.

The previous weekly candlestick closure above 1.5500 hindered further bearish decline and enhanced the bullish side of the market temporarily.

As long as bulls keep defending their key level at 1.5550 (50% Fibonacci level), a quick bullish pullback towards 1.5750 (supply level) should be expected.

On the other hand, the nearest demand level around 1.5200 will become exposed if GBP/USD bears manage to close again below the level of 1.5500.

gbousdaily.png

After a bearish breakout of the lower limit of the depicted bullish channel (roughly around 1.5500-1.5550), the market failed to gather enough bearish momentum towards the intraday demand level of 1.5100.

Significant bullish pressure was observed around 1.5200. Hence, a bullish swing was established towards 1.5780 (61.8% Fibonacci level) and 1.5880.

Previously, the price zone of 1.5800-1.5880 acted as a significant supply zone. It offered a valid sell entry few weeks ago. All T/P levels were successfully reached.

On the other hand, the level at 1.5550 (corresponding to 50% Fibonacci level and a previous prominent top) was broken temporarily allowing further bearish decline towards 1.5350 where an ascending bottom had been recently established.

Last week, strong bullish price actions have been expressed. A bullish pullback towards 1.5600 has been taking place. The level of 1.5550 was breached during last week's consolidations.

The level of 1.5770 (61.8% Fibonacci level) is the nearest supply level. A counter-trend intraday sell entry can be offered when further retesting occurs.

On the other hand, intraday bullish demand was offered around the level of 1.5550 on Tuesday.

An intraday buy position remains valid as long as bulls keep on defending the level of 1.5550 on a daily basis that is being threatened today.

Please note that the current daily candlestick is a bearish engulfing one which enhances the bearish side of the market. That is why, the daily closure should be considered by the end of the day.

A daily closure below the price zone of 1.5550-1.5500 invalidates the previously mentioned bullish scenario allowing a quick bearish decline towards 1.5470 and 1.5370.

Intraday technical levels and trading recommendations for EUR/USD for July 23, 2015 Market Analysis Review

eurmonth.png

The market was pushed lower after breaking below major demand levels around 1.2100 and 1.2000 where historical bottoms were previously hit back in July 2012 and June 2010.

EUR/USD bears have already pushed the price slightly below the monthly demand level at 1.0550 (established on January 1997). Bullish recovery was expressed shortly after.

April's monthly candlestick came as a bullish engulfing one. However, the next monthly candlesticks (May and June) reflected recent bearish rejection being expressed around 1.1450.

In the long term, a projection target is still located at 0.9450 provided that a bearish breakdown of the monthly demand level at 1.0550 occurs soon.

A bullish corrective movement towards 1.1500 could have been possible only if May's monthly high at 1.1465 gets breached (considered a very low probability currently).

eurusdaily.png

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

Multiple ascending bottoms were established around the levels of 1.0470, 1.0550, and 1.0850. These levels corresponded to the daily uptrend depicted on the chart.

Further bullish pressure was observed until bearish rejection was applied around 1.1400 (long-term double-top reversal pattern).

A daily closure below the level of 1.1150 brought the EUR/USD pair to 1.1000 again where the uptrend came to meet the EUR/USD pair.

As anticipated, a bearish daily closure below 1.0950 enabled a quick bearish decline towards 1.0850 (was already reached) and 1.0700 yet to come (projection target for the reversal pattern).

Initial bullish recovery was manifested yesterday after hitting the level of 1.0810. Bulls have been trying to bring a bullish corrective movement towards 1.1000.

The current bullish pullback towards the recently-established supply zone (price zone of 1.0950-1.0990) can offer a valid sell entry. S/L should be located above 1.1050. T/P levels should remain at 1.0850 and 1.0700.

Gold : analysis for July 23, 2015 Market Analysis Review

GOLDDaily23.png

GOLDM3023.png

Overview:

Since our last analysis, gold has been trading sideways around the level of $1,095.00. According to the daily time frame, we can observe a weak downward bar in a high volume, so selling at this stage looks risky. According to the H1 time frame, we can observe low volatility and weak price actions. Since the price has broken support at $1,132.00, we may expect potential testing of the level of $1,035.00 (monthly support). Watch for potential selling opportunities after retracement. Selling climax is active so selling at this stage looks risky because of a possible bullish correction.The resistance level is around $1,118.00.

Daily Fibonacci pivot points:

Resistance levels

R1: 1,094.85

R2: 1,096.00

R3: 1,100.00

Support levels:

S1: 1,087.00

S2: 1,085.70

S3: 1,082.00

Trading recommendations: Supply in an ultra high volume (selling climax) is in the background. Selling gold at this stage looks risky, so watch for potential retracement. Moreover, every selling climax is potential hidden buying by professionals, so trade carefuly.

Technical outlook and chart setups:

Gold is seen trading around the $1,100.00/01.00 levels at the moment after having tested recent lows at the $1,085.00/87.00 levels again yesterday. The metal might consolidate in this range for a while before breaking lower towards the $1.050.00/30.00 levels. It is hence recommended to remain flat for now and look to sell rallies through the $1,130.00/40.00 levels. Immediate support is seen at the $1,085.00 levels followed by $1,050.00, $1,030.00 (past resistance turned support) and lower, while resistance is seen at $1,130.00/40.00 (interim) followed by $1,175.00 and higher respectively.

Technical analysis of AUD/USD for July 23, 2015 Market Analysis Review

1437651119_AUDUSDH4.png

Overview :

  • The AUD/USD pair has still moved between 0.7327 and 0.7490 since last week (trading in sideways). Equally important, the resistance set at the level of 0.7524 and support is at 0.7324. But today, the minor support is found at 0.7345. Accordingly, if the trend fails to close below the level of minor support (0.7345), it will be a good opportunity to buy above 0.7340 with the first target at 0.7455. It is expected to continue straight towards 0.7524 in order to test the weekly resistance. Notwithstanding, the stop loss should always be taken in account because it should never exceed your maximum exposure amounts. Consequently, the best location to set your stop loss should be placed below the double bottom at the level of 0.7327.

The pair is expected to inch higher towards 139.00 and 140.00 respectively. It is hence recommended to hold long positions taken earlier, and also look for an opportunity to add further during intraday dips. Immediate support is seen at 135.00 (interim), followed by 134.00, 133.00, and lower while resistance is seen at 137.00 (interim) followed by 139.00, 140.00, and higher respectively.

EUR/NZD : analysis for July 23, 2015 Market Analysis Review

EURNZDDaily23.png

EURNZDH423.png

Overview:

Recently, EUR/NZD is moving upwards. The price tested the level of 1.6386 in a volume above the average. In the daily time frame, we can observe a demand bar in a volume below the average. There is also an inside-bar formation at the level of 16677 (held successful) and a low (support) at 1.6340. Watch for a potential breakout of inside-bar support or resistance. Besides, the price has broken our upward trendline. The short-term trend is neutral, but the mid-term trend is still bullish. I am still waiting for larger liquidity and stronger price actions to confirm the further direction.

Fibonacci Pivot Points :

Resistance levels:

R1: 1.6625

R2: 1.6660

R3: 1.6715

Support levels:

S1: 1.6513

S2: 1.6480

S3: 1.6425

Trading recommendations: Buying EUR/NZD at this stage looks risky since we have the fake breakout in the background.

Technical analysis of GBP/CHF for July 23, 2015 Market Analysis Review

Technical outlook and chart setups:

The GBP/CHF pair is seen to be trading lower around 1.4900 at the moment after hitting a fresh high at 1.5050. Support was found at 1.4875 today. The pair should be looking for an opportunity to continue drifting lower in a corrective manner towards 1.4690/1.4700 levels (which is the fibonacci 0.618 support level) as depicted here. Please also note that the support trendline is also passing through the same region. It is hence recommended to initiate fresh short positions around 1.5000 with risk at 1.5100. Immediate support is seen at 1.4850 levels, followed by 1.4550, 1.4450, and lower while resistance is seen at 1.5050 and higher respectively.

Trading recommendations:

Technical analysis of EUR/USD for July 23, 2015 Market Analysis Review

1437648613_EURUSDH1.png

Overview:

  • The EUR/USD pair has broken a major resistance at the level of 1.0950 (pivot point). But in case the daily resistance becoms support at 1.0950, the market will indicate a bullish opportunity from the area of1.0950/1.0940. Additionally, it is approaching this spot in order to test it; therefore, it will probably start moving upside in this area and recover again. So, the market will indicate the bullish opportunity at the level of 1.0950/1.0940 (above these levels look for further upside) and it will be a good sign to buy at this spot with the first target at 1.1020. It is likely to continue towards 1.1073 (the double bottom will set at the point of 1.1073). However, if a break of 1.0918 takes place, it will be a good area to plac the stop loss.

Notes:

  • It should be noted that the market will turn bullish from the level of 1.0950.
  • Volatility: 241.27; therefore, the market indicates the higher volatility.
  • Stop loss should never exceed your maximum exposure amounts. Moreover, risks to reward ratios are important and should be calculated.

Global macro overview for July 23, 2015 Market Analysis Review

Global macro overview for 23/07/2015:

The Reserve Bank of New Zealand reduced the Official Cash Rate (OCR) by 25 basis points to 3.0 percent today. This is the third rate cut since 2014, and the RBNZ continues reversing the period of rate hikes. The RBNZ has justified this cut by softening economic outlook (annual rate of 2.5%) and low inflation (below the central banks 1% to 3% target).

Nevertheless, despite the rate cut, the New Zealand dollar climbed by 1.5% against the US dollar. The market reaction is unlikely to be explained with the fact that the RBNZ statement was dovish (the further rate cuts are likely), but lack of aggressive tone and commitment for further easing that had been anticipated by market participants resulted in temporary NZD rally to the edge of the channel at the level of 0.6694.

Forecast of EUR/CAD for July 23, 2015 Market Analysis Review

The Greek government is likely to get enough votes in Parliament. As of now, the Greek Parliament voted with final result: 230 in favor, 63 against, and 5 abstentions.

Traders eye today US unemployment claims and Canada core retail sales. In May and June, core retail sales data was weak.

Technical view: The cross made a double bottom at 1.4065, moving higher for 4 consecutive days. We can observe higher lows and higher highs in the daily and four-hour charts/

In case of disappointing Canadian retails sales, the cross is likely to head towards 1.4400 during a day or two. The resistance is seen at 1.4375 and weekly resistance is seen at 1.4320. The cross managed to breach and close above the falling wedge.

At today's session, the cross must close above 1.4260. Otherwise, we will expect a price correction in a day or two.

Technical analysis of USD/CAD for July 23, 2015 Market Analysis Review

The USD/CAD pair is trading near the monthly resistance at 1.3063. It reached a high of 1.3053.

The US existing-home sales increased in June at the highest pace in eight years. All major regions experienced sales gains in June and have now risen above year-over-year levels for six consecutive months.

Traders eye today US unemployment claims and Canada core retail sales. In May and June, core retail sales data was weak.

Technical view: the pair failed to breach the previous high of 1.3053, immediate resistance is seen at 1.3063.

All time intervals generate signals of overbought . In the four-hour chart, negative divergence is indicated. In case the pair manages to breach above 1.3065, bulls will try to reach 1.3100 and 1.3140 during the day. Due to the negative divergences, the pair is unable to sustain at the higher levels, we guess.

Intraday support is found at 1.3010, 1.2980, and 1.2950. Support base is seen around 1.2900. The selling pressure accelerates below 1.2900. Risky traders can open selling positions below 1.3010, safe traders - below 1.2980.

Global macro overview for 23/07/2015:

Yesterday, the Greece government approved the EU demand by passing the second bundle of policy measures. This move was absolutely necessary to keep Greece in the eurozone. The 300 seat parliament approved the deal persuaded by Tsipras argumentation and 151 lawmakers finally agreed. The details of the deal revealed new banking rules protecting the taxpayers from the costs of bank failures. This law will come into force at the beginning of 2016.

The market reaction was largely positive. EUR/USD bounced from the key support at the level of 1.0815. Currently, the market is trading at the level of 1.0987 trying to test the golden trendline. Any breakout higher will lead to immediate test of the next resistance at the level of 1.1200.

USDX technical analysis for July 23, 2015 Market Analysis Review

The US Dollar index is pulling back in a corrective pattern as we expected two days ago. Despite yesterday's bounce towards 97,80, we saw a rejection at the 61.8% retracement of the latest decline. Now, we see new lows below 97.10 towards cloud support.

usdx.jpg

Black lines - bullish channel

The US Dollar Index remains inside the medium-term bullish channel and is now testing Ichimoku cloud support as shown in my 4-hour chart. Support is found at 96.80 while resistance is at 97.60 by the kijun-sen (yellow indicator) and at 97.80 the recent high.

usdxd.jpg

In overall, the US Dollar Index is back testing the kijun-sen (yellow indicator) in the weekly chart. If the bullish scenario comes true, we should see a strong bounce from this support area. If the weekly chart closes below 95.80, the bullish scenario will be in danger. The rise so far from 93.10 is in 3 waves and this implies a correction. Therefore we will need some upside resumption in order to enable bulls to remain in control. Otherwise, the bearish scenario of a deeper correction towards 90 restarts will take place.The material has been provided by InstaForex Company - www.instaforex.com

Gold technical analysis for July 23, 2015 Market Analysis Review

Gold price has managed to reach early Monday's lows and is bouncing towards $1,100 now. The fact that the early Monday low is held increases the chances of a bigger bounce towards $1,130. However, a longer-term trend remains bearish.

goldh4.jpg

Red line - short-term trend line resistance

In the 15-minute chart shown above, gold price is hitting lower lows and lower highs. The price is testing the short-term trend-line resistance. A move above $1,100 could bring some more buyers and push the price back towards the 1st resistance at $1,117 at the 38% retracement.

goldh1.jpg

Red line - trend line resistance

Blue line- longer-term trend line resistance

Gold price remains below the Ichimoku cloud and the blue trend line in the 4-hour chart. However, the recent price action has brought price above the tenkan-sen (red line) indicator and this could imply a push higher towards $1,120 where the kijun-sen (yellow line) indicator is found. Bears should be very cautious now as we could see a bigger bounce if we break above $1,100.

Elliott wave analysis of EUR/NZD for July 23, 2015 Market Analysis Review

2015-07-23-EURNZD-4H.png

Technical summary:

A back-test of the broken support-line has been seen and we are looking for a decline to the bottom of wave (iv) at 1.6035, which also marks the 23.6% corrective target of a rally in wave 1. This correction is wave 2 could be deep, but we have seen the cross producing only very small corrections in the second wave and therefore do not want to overstate the downside potential.

Trading recommendation:

We sold EUR at 1.6565 with stop placed at 1.6640 and take profit placed at 1.6125. Do not be too aggressive towards the downside thus.

Elliott wave analysis of EUR/JPY for July 23, 2015 Market Analysis Review

2015-07-23-EURJPY-4H.png

Technical summary:

As long as minor support at 134.83 protects the downside, we will stay cautiously bullish for a break above resistance at 136.38 and more important a break above resistance at 137.80 confirming a continuation higher to 141.06 and 144.03.

To alter the bullish count a break below important support at 133.27 will be needed, but a break below here will leave us with a three wave rally from 126.05 and call for a new decline to this low.

Trading recommendation:

We are long EUR from 134.07 and will move our stop here to 134.75. If you are not long EUR yet, then buy EUR upon a break above 136.38 and use the same stop at 134.75.

Daily analysis of USDX for July 23, 2015 Market Analysis Review

At daily chart, the USDX is currently inside a corrective range, where we are currently watching downside moves in favor of the overall bullish bias. There is also a higher high pattern formation in this time frame and bear in mind that a breakout around the level of 97.57 will open doors to the resistance zone of 98.29.

USDXDaily.png

The short-term picture is giving us a possible buy trade idea, because the Index is finding dynamic support at the 200 SMA on the H1 chart. However, the USDX is dealing with the resistance level of 97.53. If the Index achieves a break in that zone, it would be expected to test the zonr around 97.77 in coming days. The MACD indicator is entering the negative territory.

USDXH1.png

Daily chart's resistance levels: 97.57 / 98.29

Daily chart's support levels: 96.57 / 95.63

H1 chart's resistance levels: 97.53 / 97.77

H1 chart's support levels: 97.12 / 96.73

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 97.53, take profit is at 97.72, and stop loss is at 97.31.

Daily analysis of GBP/USD for July 23, 2015 Market Analysis Review

GBP/USD performed a rebound above the 200 SMA on the daily chart, where dynamic support was found. Because of it, we want to see a test of the area around the resistance level of 1.5640. We could take the current pattern as a bullish one and that is why we could expect a rise above that resistance mentioned above.

GBPUSDDaily.png

The H1 chart is already showing a bullish consolidation above the 200 SMA and now the nearest target is located at the resistance level of 1.5639. A breakout over there will lead to this pair to test the resistance zone of 1.5672. However, this outlook will get invalidated when GBP/USD does a breakout of the support level of 1.5524 during this week.

Daily chart's resistance levels: 1.5640 / 1.5755

H1 chart's support levels: 1.5596 / 1.5524

Trading recommendations for today: Based on the H1 chart, place buy (long) orders only if the GBP/USD pair breaks a bullish candlestick; the resistance level is at 1.5639, take profit is at 1.5672, and stop loss is at 1.5554.

Daily analysis of major pairs for July 23, 2015 Market Analysis Review

EUR/USD: The currency pair faced resistance at the level of 1.0950. There is a stromg possibility that the price could fall lower reaching the support line at 1.0850. An ultimate target is seen at the support line of 1.0800, and unless USD loses its strength in, it would be attained. Moreover, fundamental data is due today and it can have a significant impact on the market.

1.png

USD/CHF: As we had expected, the USD/CHF failed to resume its northward journey. The price is above the support level at 0.9600 now, and it could continue going further north, reaching the resistance level at 0.9650.

2.png

GBP/USD: the cable is moving in a clean bullish bias despite the current market consolidation. Bulls are still making attempts to drive the price further upwards. A break above the distribution territory at 1.5650 would result in a stronger Bullish Confirmation Pattern in the chart; since the distribution territory has been a major impediment to bulls' interests (the price was unable to break it upwards last week).

3.png

USD/JPY: yesterday's drop in the price proved to be temporary. It was a wonderful opportunity to buy long in this market. The supply level at 124.50 might thus be reached in no time.

4.png

EUR/JPY: On the 4-hour chart, the EMA 11 is below the EMA 56, but the RSI period 14 is above the level of 50. It is therefore better to stay away from this market until there is a clear signal.
