Gold analysis for February 04 , 2016 Market Analysis Review

Overview:

Since our last analysis, gold has been trading upwards. As I expected, the price tested the level of $1,147.20 in a very high volume. An intraday short-term trend is upward. In the daily time frame, I found an upward bar in a very high volume. Demand still presents in the market. So, selling looks risky. The price broke the daily 200 SMA . Also, the pair is trading well above all key MA`s (SMA 50,100,150,200) in the H4 time frame. The first take-profit level is reached at $1,134.00 (Fibonacci retracement 61.8%, daily SMA 200). Second short-term takes profit is set at the level of $1,182.00. In the M30 time frame, I found a broken trading range (re-accumulation). Since gold is in the uptrend according to the lower frame, watch for the potential buying opportunities on dips.

Daily Fibonacci pivot points:

Resistance levels:

R1: 1,145.80

EUR/NZD analysis for February 04, 2016 Market Analysis Review

Overview:

Recently, EUR/NZD has been moving sideways around the price of 1.6660. In the daily time frame, I found a supply bar, but with a weak close price, which is a sign of indecision. In the 4-hour time frame, our strong support level at 1.6515 (swing low, Fibonacci expansion 61.8%) held successfully. If the price breaks the level of 1.6515, we may expect potential testing of 1.6260 (Fibonacci expansion 100%) and 1.5830 (Fibonacci expansion 161.8%). Intraday resistance level is at the price of 1.6740 (volume balance zone).

Fibonacci Pivot Points:

Resistance levels:

R1: 1.6750

R2: 1.6815

R3: 1.6915

Support levels:

S1: 1.6545

S2: 1.6485

S3: 1.6380

Technical analysis of USD/CHF for February 04, 2016 Market Analysis Review

Overview:

• The USD/CHF pair has faced strong resistances at the levels of 1.0075 because support had become resistance on February 4, 2016. So, the strong resistance has been already formed at the level of 1.0075 and the pair is likely to try to approach it in order to test it again. However, if the pair fails to pass through the level of 1.0075, the market will indicate a bearish opportunity below the new strong resistance level of 1.0075 (the level of 1.0075 coincides with a ratio of 61.8% Fibonacci). Moreover, the RSI starts signaling a downward trend, as the trend is still showing strength above the moving average (100) and (50). Thus, the market is indicating a bearish opportunity below 1.0075 so it will be good to sell at 1.0075 with the first target of 0.9965. It will also call for a downtrend in order to continue towards 0.9896. The daily strong support is seen at 0.9896. However, the stop loss should always be taken into account, for that it will be reasonable to set your stop loss at the level of 1.0125.

NZD/USD intraday technical levels and trading recommendations for February 4, 2016 Market Analysis Review

On December 30, a significant bearish rejection took place around the level of 0.6840 (daily resistance level) similar to what happened previously on October 23.

Moreover, a daily closure below 0.6750 allowed a quick bearish decline to occur initially towards the level of 0.6500, which was broken to the downside as well.

However, the price levels of 0.6400-0.6350 constituted a significant support zone. Hence, a strong bullish rejection was expressed on January 20 (inverted head and shoulders pattern).

Since January 26, bullish persistence above 0.6500 was mandatory to keep pushing the NZD/USD pair towards higher bullish targets. However, the temporary bearish rejection has been expressed around 0.6550 for almost two weeks, which resulted in the depicted consolidation range.

On January 28, the depicted support level of 0.6400 acted as a prominent key level offering a valid buy entry. A bullish breakout above 0.6550 has been executed earlier today.

Bullish persistence above 0.6550 (depicted recent support) was needed to keep the price moving towards higher bullish targets. The nearest target zone is currently located around 0.6700-0.6750.

Price zone of 0.6700-0.6750 remains a significant resistance zone to be watched for a valid sell entry. Signs of a bearish rejection should be assumed to be a sell signal. S/L should be located above 0.6775.

Technical analysis of NZD/USD for February 04, 2016 Market Analysis Review

Overview:

• The NZD/USD pair broke resistance which turned to strong support at the level of 0.6615 yesterday. The level of 0.6615 coincides with 50% of Fibonacci, which is expected to act as major support today. Since the trend is above the 50% Fibonacci level, it means the market is still in an uptrend. From this point, the USD/CHF pair is continuing in a bullish trend from the new support of 0.6615. Currently, the price is in a bullish channel. According to the previous events, we expect the NZD/USD pair to move between 0.6615 and 0.6768. On the H4 chart, resistance is seen at the levels of 0.6768 and 0.6819. Also, it should be noticed that, the level of 0.6678 represents the daily pivot point. Therefore, strong support will be formed at the level of 0.6615 providing a clear signal for buy deals with the targets seen at 0.6768. If the trend breaks the support at 0.6768 (first resistance) the pair will move upwards continuing the development of the bullish trend to the level 0.6819 in order to test the daily resistance 2. However, stop loss is to be placed below the level of 0.6551.

USD/CAD intraday technical levels and trading recommendations for February 4, 2016 Market Analysis Review

A bullish breakout above the previous consolidation zone between 1.2400 and 1.2800 was performed on July 15 (shown on the weekly chart).

A significant bearish rejection was observed around 1.3450. Hence, another consolidation range was established from 1.3450 down to 1.2800.

On December 7, a bullish breakout above 1.3450 (the upper limit of the recent consolidation range) enhanced the bullish side of the market. Hence, a bullish visit towards the resistance level of 1.4120 (Fibonacci Expansion 100%) was executed.

Bullish persistence above 1.4150 enhanced the bullish side of the market towards 1.4650 (141.4% Fibonacci expansion) where evident bearish rejection was expected (a bearish engulfing weekly candlestick).

The level of 1.4120 (Fibonacci Expansion 100%) remains a significant key level to be watched for price reaction during the current week's consolidations. It offered a valid sell entry on a bullish pullback that took place yesterday.

On the other hand, the price zone of 1.3370-1.3400 remains a significant support zone to be watched for valid buy entries if enough bearish momentum is maintained below the mentioned key level (1.4100) and prominent weekly support (1.4000).

Trading recommendations:

As we expected, valid sell entries were suggested around 1.4650 (141.4% Fibonacci expansion) and around 1.4120 (Fibonacci Expansion 100%).

Both positions are running in profits. Now S/L should be lowered to 1.4050 to secure our profits, while the next T/P levels remain at 1.3650,1.3500, and 1.3420.

Conservative traders should wait for a bearish pullback towards the zone of 1.3370-1.3400 as a valid buy entry. S/L should be located below 1.3320.

Intraday technical levels and trading recommendations for GBP/USD for February 4, 2016 Market Analysis Review

Few months ago, the market was pushed above the depicted level of 1.5550 trying to reach the zone of 1.5900 where the depicted Head and Shoulders pattern was formed.

On November 2015, a bearish engulfing weekly candlestick closed below the level of 1.5200 (the neckline of the Head and Shoulders pattern). This supported the bearish side of the market in the long term.

Extensive bearish pressure has been applied to the demand levels of 1.4620 and 1.4360. Both of them were broken to the downside.

Shortly after the GBP/USD pair moved below 1.4220, evident signs of bullish recovery were expressed around 1.4075. Hence, the previous two weekly candlesticks closed above 1.4220 indicating strong bullish demand.

That is why the zone of 1.4360-1.4220 remains a significant demand zone for the GBP/USD pair. A bullish engulfing weekly candlestick is being expressed as depicted on the chart.

Bullish persistence above 1.4220 and 1.4360 was mandatory to maintain enough bullish strength in the market. The first bullish target is seen at 1.4615.

Any signs of a bearish rejection around 1.4615 should be taken into consideration as it corresponded to a broken weekly demand level, which now is acting as a supply level.

During 2015, a significant bearish rejection was expressed around 1.5770 and 1.5230 where a bearish Head and Shoulders reversal pattern was formed. Since then, the market has been trending downwards within the depicted bearish channel.

Few weeks ago, the level of 1.4950 was broken to the downside, constituting a significant supply level.

Daily persistence below 1.4800 (the lower limit of the depicted bearish channel) favored a bearish decline towards 1.4680 and 1.4610 where previous prominent bottoms are located on the GBP/USD daily chart.

Recently, the GBP/USD pair looked oversold as it moved further below the prominent demand levels of 1.4620 and 1.4360.

That is why, the depicted signs of a bullish rejection around the demand level of 1.4220 were considered to be a valid buy signal.

Bullish persistence above 1.4360 was mandatory to maintain enough bullish strength in the market. The first bullish target at 1.4615 has been already reached.

A daily closure above 1.4620 allows the pair to make a quick bullish movement towards the next resistance level around 1.4800. However, traders should watch for any signs of bearish rejection that occur around 1.4620.

Trading Recommendation:

In our previous articles, traders were advised to take a valid buy entry when GBP/USD bulls managed to achieve a daily closure above the level of 1.4220 and then above 1.4360. S/L should be advanced to 1.4550 to secure our profits.

Conservative traders should wait for clear signs of a bearish rejection around 1.4620 to sell the GBP/USD pair. S/L would be set as a daily candlestick closure above 1.4620.

Technical analysis of EUR/JPY for Febuary 4, 2016 Market Analysis Review

General overview for 04/02/2016:

As anticipated yesterday, the corrective cycle looks completed and an impulsive wave progression to the upside might have started now. There is one more resistance for bulls to overcome, the golden trend-line dynamic resistance around the level of 131.63. If this line is clearly violated, then the next target for bulls will be the recent swing height at the level of 132.32. Please notice that this scenario will be invalidated if the price reverses below the wave 2 lows at the level of 130.00.

Support/Resistance:

133.69 - WR1

132.27 - Local High|Technical Resistance|

131.29 - Intraday Resistance

130.76 - Weekly Pivot

130.22 - Intraday Support

129.18 - WS1

Trading recommendations:

So far, the market confirms our bullish bias and buy orders from yesterday should be kept open. SL should be moved just below the level of 130.00 and TP is still open now. The bullish trend might have just started, so it will be more profitable to keep buy orders open for some longer time.

Technical analysis of USD/CAD for Febuary 4, 2016 Market Analysis Review

General overview for 04/02/2016:

An expected wave c to the upside failed to hit the projected target level, and the market is in a retreat now. Currently, the pair is trading below the important resistance at the level of 1.4000 and further downside wave development is expected. Please notice that according to Elliott wave count the market is still in a big corrective cycle of wave 4, which now looks like a zig-zag pattern. When the correction i completed, one more high is expected above the level of 1.4687.

Support/Resistance:

1.4690 - Swing High

1.4553 - WR3

1.4436 - WR2

1.4324 - Technical Resistance

1.3682 - WS2

Trading recommendations:

Buy orders from yesterday should now be closed at the BE level, because the trend has reversed sooner than expected. Currently, the intraday trend is still bearish and only sell orders should be placed. The SL should be placed above the level of 1.3800 and TP should be placed at the level of 1.3682.

Daily analysis of major pairs for February 4, 2016 Market Analysis Review

EUR/USD: This pair started moving upwards gradually on Monday, but the upwards movement became really significant on Wednesday leading to a strong Bullish Confirmation Pattern in the chart. The price has now moved upwards by over 300 pips and there is more room for additional bullish journey, which is likely to take place irrespective of the pullbacks along the way.

USD/CHF: The USD/CHF pair plunged massively on Wednesday (February 3, 2016), as a result of a perceived weakness in USD. The price dropped by 230 pips this week, ending the recent bullish bias in the market. After the plunge, there is an upward bounce in the context of a downtrend. Further downward movement is thus expected, which might take the price towards the support level of 0.9950.

GBP/USD: The bullish effort on the cable has really paid off. The price is above the EMA 11, which is, in its turn, above the EMA 56. The RSI period 14 is above the level of 50 meaning that the price is expected to go further northwards. The price has already moved upwards by 500 pips (since the low of Friday, January 29, 2016). There could be some pullbacks along the way, but the bullish journey is expected to continue.

USD/JPY: This currency trading instrument has plunged by 420 pips this week ending the bullish signal we witnessed last Friday. In fact, the price is now below the EMA 56, as the RSI period 14 is below the level of 50. Since the price has gone below the supply levels of 119.50, 119.00, and 118.50, it is rational to assume that the demand levels of 117.00 and 116.50 would be tested soon.

EUR/JPY: In spite of the fact that JPY is currently flexing some muscles, this cross has not fallen sharply. One reason behind this is the strength in the euro itself, which might force the cross to go up in case the bullishness holds out. That is one thing that could act as a catalyst for this cross to become bullish, for the uptrend is not completely over in spite of the ongoing threat against it.

USDX technical analysis for February 4, 2016 Market Analysis Review

The US dollar index collapsed yesterday as it broke below and out of the upward sloping channel. The price was signalling that a bearish reversal was coming as we pointed out the bearish divergence in the stochastic and the RSI a couple days back.

Red lines - bearish wedge

The US dollar index has broken below the cloud support and the upward sloping wedge. The critical support of 98.40-98.50 was broken and the price fell 1 point down. Today, we see the price bouncing, but I believe the downside move is not over yet.

In the weekly chart above, we see how the price has broken below the tenkan-sen support (red line indicator) and is now heading towards the kijun-sen (yellow line indicator) and the Ichimoku cloud near 96.50. The trend is bearish.The material has been provided by InstaForex Company - www.instaforex.com

Gold technical analysis for February 4, 2016 Market Analysis Review

Gold price continued moving towards new highs yesterday remaining inside the bullish channels and without any reversal signal shown yet. However, the price is now testing channel boundaries that are important resistance levels and now we are going to find out if this entire rally from $1,050 is a correction or a new uptrend beginning.

Blue lines - medium-term bullish channel

Gold price reached the upper channel boundary resistance and broke out above the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement. A trend remains bullish but bulls need to be cautious now and raise their stops because this can be the end of the entire rise from $1,050.

Gold price is approaching weekly resistance of $1,150 and this can signal the end of a bounce and the downtrend resumption. We must not forget that we are still inside the downward sloping wedge and below the Ichimoku cloud. So, only in case of a break above these two resistance barriers, we can have confirmation of the reversal in the long-term trend. The short-term trend remains bullish with important support at $1,125.The material has been provided by InstaForex Company - www.instaforex.com

Elliott wave analysis of EUR/NZD for February, 2016 Market Analysis Review

Wave summary:

A corrective decline from 1.7271 continues to grind slowly lower and a breakout below support at 1.6564 calls for a corrective move closer to 1.6370 and possibly even slightly lower to 1.6300 before this correction is over and the next impulsive rally takes place.

Only a direct breakout above resistance at 1.6681 will indicate that the correction has already completed and the next impulsive rally higher is developing towards 1.7271 and higher.

Trading recommendation:

Our stop was hit for a loss. We will be looking for a EUR-buying opportunity near 1.6370.

Elliott wave analysis of EUR/JPY for February 4, 2016 Market Analysis Review

Wave summary:

We have evaluated our two possible counts and have decided that this count is the most favorable one. This count shows that wave [C] or [iii] is already developing for a long-term rally above 149.55 closer to 170.00.

However, in the the short term, we are likely to see a correction slightly below the area of 128.60 - 129.30 before the next rally higher. We expect the resistance line from 141.04 to be broken. This will also trigger an inverse S/H/S bottom for an anticipated rally to 138.31.

As this corrective decline is minor wave two, it could be deeper than 128.60.

Trading recommendation:

We will look for a EUR-buying opportunity near 128.60.

NZD/USD intraday technical levels and trading recommendations for February 3, 2016 Market Analysis Review

On December 30, a significant bearish rejection took place around the level of 0.6840 (daily resistance level) similar to what happened previously on October 23.

Moreover, a daily closure below 0.6750 allowed a quick bearish decline to occur initially towards the level of 0.6500, which was broken to the downside as well.

However, the price levels of 0.6400-0.6350 constituted a significant support zone. Hence, a strong bullish rejection was expressed on January 20 (inverted head and shoulders pattern).

Since January 26, bullish persistence above 0.6500 was mandatory to keep pushing the NZD/USD pair towards higher bullish targets. However, temporary bearish rejection has been expressed around 0.6550 for almost two weeks which led to the depicted consolidation range.

On January 28, the depicted support level of 0.6400 acted as a prominent key level offering a valid buy entry. A bullish breakout above 0.6550 has been executed earlier today.

Bullish persistence above 0.6550 (depicted recent support) is needed to keep the price moving towards higher bullish targets. The nearest bullish target is currently located around 0.6700.

On the other hand, another bearish closure below 0.6550 brings the NZD/USD pair inside the depicted consolidation range again (between 0.6400 and 0.6550).

USD/CAD intraday technical levels and trading recommendations for February 3, 2016 Market Analysis Review

A bullish breakout above the previous consolidation zone between 1.2400 and 1.2800 was performed on July 15 (shown on the weekly chart).

A significant bearish rejection was observed around 1.3450. Hence, another consolidation range was established from 1.3450 down to 1.2800.

On December 7, a bullish breakout above 1.3450 (the upper limit of the recent consolidation range) enhanced the bullish side of the market. Hence, a bullish visit towards the resistance level of 1.4120 (Fibonacci Expansion 100%) was executed.

Bullish persistence above 1.4150 enhanced the bullish side of the market towards 1.4650 (141.4% Fibonacci expansion) where evident bearish rejection was expected (a bearish engulfing weekly candlestick).

The level of 1.4120 (Fibonacci Expansion 100%) remains a significant key level to be watched for price reaction during the current week's consolidations. It offered a valid sell entry on a bullish pullback that took place yesterday.

On the other hand, the price zone of 1.3370-1.3400 remains a significant support zone to be watched for valid buy entries if enough bearish momentum is maintained below the mentioned key level (1.4100) and prominent weekly support (1.4000).

Trading recommendations:

As we expected, two valid sell entries were suggested around 1.4650 (141.4% Fibonacci expansion) and around 1.4120 (Fibonacci Expansion 100%). Both positions are running in profits. S/L should now be lowered to 1.4120 to secure our profits, while the next T/P levels remain projected at 1.3800 and 1.3650.

Conservative traders should wait for a bearish pullback towards the zone of 1.3370-1.3400 for a valid buy entry. S/L should be located below 1.3320.

Global macro overview for 03/02/2016 Market Analysis Review

Global macro overview for 03/02/2016:

The New Zealand employment data were released overnight and the most important aspects of the data were better than analysts had expected. The unemployment rate has sharply decreased to 5.3% whereas the market expectations were way worse: an increase to 6.1% from 6,0% a month before. This was the lowest jobless rate since March 2009. Moreover, the employment change posted a gain of 0.9%, edging above the estimate of 0.8%. It is worth noting that the New Zealand economy had been badly hurt by the slowdown in China's economy (the New Zealand biggest trading partner), when GDP, PMI, and other important figures from China painted a rather grim picture of future of the world's second biggest economy. In conclusion, we can remind the RBNZ Governor Graeme Wheeler's remarks from his yesterday's speech regarding an outlook for the New Zealand further economic developement: "if the concerns deepen around the global economy growth prospects and its effect on New Zealand, further policy easing may be needed over the coming year".

Let's now take a look at the daily technical chart of the NZD/USD pair. We can clearly see the strong recovery in this market as ts had broken above 50% Fibo level and now it is approaching the 61%Fibo level at 0.6678. In that case, the level of 0.6579 will be an important technical support and traders should keep thier eye on the next technical resistance just above the 61%Fibo mark at the level of 0.6681. If there is no signs of a reversal from this level, then bulls might try to test the local swing high at the level of 0.6896.

Global macro overview for 03/02/2016 Market Analysis Review

Global macro overview for 03/02/2016:

The ADP Employment report was released today and it was better than analysts had expected. A change in the number of newly employed people in the US was at 205K vs. the forecast of 195K, which seems to be a good result, but is still lower than the previous month reading of 267K. The ADP report is a good predictor of the NFP report that will be released on Friday: expectations for the NFP number are lower than last month, so an upside surprise is still possible. Please notice that strong numbers from the US labor market helped convince the Federal Reserve to raise interest rates in December, but employment numbers have been lukewarm in early 2016. In conclusion, investors might expect the employment numbers to be closely monitored by the Fed, which will have to decide if the economy is ready for another rate hike in March.

Let's take a look at the technical chart of the EUR/USD pair after the ADP data release. A clear breakout above the dashed trend line in the H4 time frame might indicate that bulls are currently in control of the market. Nevertheless, there is one more important technical resistance to be violated: the area between the levels of 1.0992 and 1.1059. If the daily candlestick closes above the top of this zone, bullish trend will resume at least in the some short time.

Intraday technical levels and trading recommendations for GBP/USD for February 3, 2016 Market Analysis Review

Few months ago, the market was pushed above the depicted level at 1.5550 trying to reach the zone of 1.5900 where the depicted Head and Shoulders pattern was formed.

On November 2015, a bearish engulfing weekly candlestick closed below the level of 1.5200 (the neckline of the Head and Shoulders pattern). This supported the bearish side of the market in the long term.

Extensive bearish pressure has been applied to the demand levels of 1.4620 and 1.4360. Both of them were broken to the downside.

Shortly after the GBP/USD pair moved below 1.4220, evident signs of bullish recovery were expressed around 1.4075. Hence, the previous two weekly candlesticks closed above 1.4220 indicating strong bullish demand.

That is why the zone of 1.4360-1.4220 remains a significant demand zone for the GBP/USD pair. A bullish engulfing weekly candlestick is being expressed as depicted on the chart.

Bullish persistence above 1.4220 and 1.4360 is mandatory to maintain enough bullish strength in the market. The first bullish target is seen at 1.4615.

During 2015, significant bearish rejection was expressed around 1.5770 and 1.5230 where a bearish Head and Shoulders reversal pattern was formed. Since then, the market has been trending downwards within the depicted bearish channel.

Few weeks ago, the level of 1.4950 was broken to the downside, constituting a significant supply level.

Daily persistence below 1.4800 (the lower limit of the depicted bearish channel) favored a bearish decline towards 1.4680 and 1.4610 where previous prominent bottoms are located on the GBP/USD daily chart.

Currently, the GBP/USD pair looks oversold as it moved further below the prominent demand levels of 1.4620 and 1.4360.

That is why any sign of a bullish rejection around the demand level of 1.4220 was considered as a valid buy signal.

Bullish persistence above 1.4360 is mandatory to maintain enough bullish strength in the market. The first bullish target is projected towards 1.4615.

Trading Recommendation:

In our previous articles, traders were advised to take a valid buy entry when GBP/USD bulls managed to achieve a daily closure above the level of 1.4220. It is already running in profits now.

Initial T/P levels should be located at 1.4440, 1.4500, and 1.4615 while S/L should be advanced to 1.4270.

Those traders who missed out on the initial trade can have another buy entry near the level of 1.4360 when retesting occurs.

T/P levels would be located at 1.4470, 1.4550, and 1.4610.

Intraday technical levels and trading recommendations for EUR/USD for February 3, 2016 Market Analysis Review

On January 2015, the EUR/USD pair moved below the major demand levels around 1.2100 and 1.2000 where historical bottoms were previously established back in July 2012 and June 2010. Hence, a long-term bearish target is projected towards 0.9450.

On March 2015, EUR/USD bears challenged the monthly demand level of 1.0570 (reached in January 1997). A month later, strong bullish recovery was observed around the mentioned demand level.

The April candlestick came as a bullish engulfing one. However, next monthly candlesticks (September, October, and November) reflected strong bearish rejection around the level of 1.1450.

As mentioned above, the long-term projected target will still be seen at 0.9450 if the current monthly candlestick closes below the depicted demand level of 1.0570.

On August 2015, the EUR/USD pair looked overbought as the market spiked above the level of 1.1500 (daily supply level).

Shortly after, the intraday supply zone of 1.1360-1.1400 produced significant bearish pressure.

A bearish breakout of the depicted uptrend was performed on October 23. This enhanced a long-term bearish scenario with targets at 1.0800 and 1.0600.

On November 2015, daily persistence below the level of 1.0800 (prominent key level) ensured enough bearish momentum towards 1.0550 (monthly demand level) where the recent bullish pullback was initiated towards 1.0800 and 1.1000.

During the last few weeks, the level of 1.1000 was considered the significant supply level to offer valid sell entries. Moreover, a Head and Shoulders reversal pattern was formed as depicted on the chart. That is why, the current bullish pullback towards 1.1000 should be considered for selling the EUR/USD pair.

The previous bearish closure below 1.0800 (the reversal pattern neckline) confirmed the depicted reversal pattern. An estimated bearish target is located at 1.0620.

Today, a bearish closure below 1.0800 (neckline of the depicted reversal pattern) is needed to allow a further bearish decline to occur towards 1.0730, 1.0620, and 1.0570.

On the other hand, bullish persistence above 1.0830 hinders the further bearish decline. Hence, another bullish pullback towards 1.1000 would be expected.

Daily analysis of gold for February 03, 2016 Market Analysis Review

Overview

Gold price fluctuates near the key resistance of 1130.60, which represents 61.8% Fibonacci level of the last bearish wave. As we mentioned yesterday, we are waiting for bearish rebound to resume an overall bearish trend after approaching the main bearish channel's resistance that appears on chart. The price needs to break 1114.50 followed by 1098.40 to reinforce the expectations of continuing bearish bias with the next target extended to a recent low of 1046.20. Taking into consideration that a breakout at the level of 1140.50 will stop the negative overview and stimulate recovery in the short-term basis to target 1182.80 followed by 1200.00.

We expect a trading range between the support level of 1100.00 and the resistance level of 1140.50.

Gold analysis for February 03, 2016 Market Analysis Review

Overview:

Since our last analysis, gold has been trading sideways at the level of $1,127.00. An intraday short-term trend is upward. In the daily time frame, I found a neutral bar but the volume is still above the average. The demand still presents in the market. So, selling looks risky. We can see a test at the 200 SMA. Also, the pair is trading well above all key MA`s (SMA 50,100,150,200) in the H4 time frame. The first take-profit level is reached at $1,134.00 (Fibonacci retracement 61.8%, daily SMA 200). If the price breaks the level of $1,134.00, we may expect potential testing of $1,182.00). In the M30, I found a trading range between the support level of $1,120.00 and the resistance of $1,130.60. Since Gold is in the uptrend according to the lower frame, watch for the potential upward breakout to confirm the further upward continuation.

Daily Fibonacci pivot points:

Resistance levels:

R1: 1,130.60

R2: 1,132.60

R3: 1,135.80

Support levels:

S1: 1,124.00

S2: 1,122.20

S3: 1,119.00

Trading recommendations:Trading recommendations: watch for potential breakout of the trading range to confirm further direction.

Daily analysis of Silver for February 03, 2016 Market Analysis Review

Overview

Silver price keeps moving within tight track. As long as the price is between 13.65 support and 14.40 resistance around Fibonacci 23.6%, the sideways range will remain dominant in the intraday trading. The price needs to breach one of these levels to detect its next targets clearly on the short-term basis. Importantly, breaking 14.40 resistance will lead to further bullish correction that targets 14.67 followed by 15.30 levels mainly, while breaking 13.65 level will put the price under the main negative pressure again with the first the target at 13.00 and the next one at 12.00.

Expected trading range for today is between 13.80 support and 14.67 resistance.
