Technical outlook and chart setups:

As discussed yesterday, there was no significant changes in the price action up to now and the GBP/CHF pair is preparing for a retracement before resuming its rally. The pair is trading around the level of 1.4650 at the moment and might want to test 1.4700/10 before reversing lower towards 1.4150. It is recommended to remain short and look to add further around the levevl of 1.4700 with risk around 1.4760. Immediate support is seen at 1.4530 levels followed by 1.4400, 1.4300/50, and lower.

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

2015-05-27-EURNZD-4H.png

Technical summary:

We are still looking for one final decline closer to the ideal target at 1.4725. That said yesterday's rally to 1.5079 wasn't a part of our roadmap and it does cause concern. The only pattern that allows the overlap we saw yesterday is an ending diagonal. So, this is what we will be looking for as long as resistance at 1.5079 protects the upside.

That said, a break above resistance at 1.5079 will invalidate the bearish count and indicate that a bottom already is in place at 1.4926 and a new impulsive rally in wave (iii) should be expected.

Trading recommendation:

We are short EUR from 1.4995 and will move our stop+reverse lower to 1.5080 and we will place take profit+reverse at 1.4950.

Elliott wave analysis of EUR/JPY for May 27, 2015 Market Analysis Review

2015-05-27-EURJPY-4H.png

Technical summary:

We saw a minor wavefive rally from a low of 133.07, which tells us that the correction in wave (ii) is over and wave (iii) higher towards at least 144.03 and more likely to 150.77 is developing. In the short term, we will ideally see the 61.8% corrective target of blue wave i at 133.62 protecting the downside for a break above minor resistance at 134.11 and more importantly a break above 134.52 confirming wave (iii) higher is developing.

As long as minor resistance at 134.18 is able to protect the upside, we must allow more deeper correction in blue wave ii, but at no point a break below 133.07 can be allowed or this count will be invalidated.

Trading recommendation:

We will buy EUR at 133.50 or upon a break above 134.18 (one order done cancels the other) stop will be placed at 133.00

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

USD/CAD

Ahead of the BOC rate statement, CAD is trading higher against USD early at the Asian session. The monthly monetary policy statement is due for 10.00am ET. Canada's economy remains in optimistic mood. The weak loonie helps the export-led economy to expand exports. Falling oil prices are influencing the economy of Canada. We expect Poloz to mantain rates unchanged at 0.75%. The pair gave another stellar move yesterday. The pair has been gaining for 3 days. The pair managed to close above 100Dsma and 20Wsma at yesterday's session. Another great work of bulls. We have been repeatedly advising buying from 1.2000 (May 15th). Buy on dips continues. We recommend intraday fresh buying above 1.2450 with targets at 1.2480 and 1.2520. In case of a daily close above 1.2365, bulls will aim at 1.2650. In case of a weekly close above 1.2400, bulls will aim at 1.2800.

Daily analysis of USDX for May 27, 2015 Market Analysis Review

The USDX managed to break the resistance zone of 96.97 and now it's focusing to test the next upside target at 98.08. We're at important levels and we should be cautious when trading owing to bullish momentum on the Index. As the current price action is showing that bulls are in control, we should follow this bias.

USDXDaily.png

In the H1 chart, the USDX continues to trade in favor of the upward trend. Also, it's moving sideways, that could mean it could be forming a bullish pattern. In case of success, it has to break the resistance level of 97.60 in order to rally towards the level of 97.97. 200 SMA is still bullish, but the MACD indicator is in the negative territory.

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.
