EUR/USD: "V-Bottom" set up bullish correction
7/21/2016



The price faced a support at 1.0970, which led to form a reversal “V-Bottom”, so we’ve got the current upward movement. So, bulls are likely going to get a resistance between the 34 Moving Average and the level at 1.1083. If we see a pullback from this area, bears will probably try to catch a support at 1.1001 – 1.0970.



As we can see on the one-hour chart, there’s a “V-Bottom”, which led to the current bullish price movement. Also, the 55 Moving Average is acting as a resistance. Therefore, the market is likely going to move up towards the closest resistance area. However, if sellers form a pullback from the trend line, then another downward movement will be on the table.

GBP/USD: "Triple Bottom" stopped bearish rally
7/21/2016



We’ve got a “V-Bottom” pattern, which led to the current upward movement. Also, the price found a resistance at 1.3226, but bulls are likely going to reach the next resistance at 1.3336. At the same time, if a pullback from this level happens afterwards, bears will probably try to approach a support at 1.3116 – 1.3015.



There’s a “Triple Bottom”, which brought bulls into the market. The price faced a resistance at 1.3273, so the we’ve got a local consolidation. Therefore, the market is likely going to rise towards a resistance at 1.3273 – 1.3313 in the short term. If a pullback from here arrives, there’ll be an opportunity to see the price lower, so we should keep an eye on a support at 1.3015 – 1.2970 as a possible next bearish target.

EUR/USD: "Hammer" triggered upward correction
7/21/2016




We’ve got an “Inverted Hammer” at the local low, which has been confirmed enough. Also, there’s a “Harami” on the closest “Window”, so the pair is likely going to test the middle of the last huge black candle once again. As we can see on the Daily chart, here’s a “High Wave”, which points to a possible upward correction. However, bears will probably try to deliver a new low afterwards.



There’s a “Harami” on the 55 Moving Average, which has been confirmed. At the same time, bulls are likely going to test the next 89 Moving Average. If a pullback from this line happens later on, there’ll be an opportunity to have another bearish rally.

USD/JPY: "Window" acted as a resistance
7/21/2016



The nearest “Window” has acted as a resistance, which led to form a bearish “Harami” pattern. Therefore, we’ve got the current downward correction. If the price faces a support on the 34 & 89 Moving Averages, bulls are likely going to reach the upper “Window” in the short term. As we can see on the Daily chart, there’s a probable “Engulfing”, which makes possible an achievement of the closest support line.



There’s a “Harami”, which had been confirmed enough. So, the market is likely going to test the nearest support line. If a pullback from here happens soon, bulls will probably try to catch a resistance on the 13 & 34 Moving Averages.

Major banks: forecasts for EUR ahead of the ECB

Analysts of the major banks have different stake on what decision the European Central Bank will make at today’s meeting. The ECB minimum bid rate will be announced at 11:45 GMT. Mario Draghi’s press conference will start at 12:30 GMT.

Citi: Short on the euro. The currency will make an abrupt move and then calm down. The market doesn’t expect much from the ECB, so any move lower in EUR can be enough to break ranges.

IGN: The euro has potential to decline to 1.0850 versus the US dollar in the near term. Resistance is at 1.1050/80.

BNPP: The market doesn’t expect much from the ECB. The central bank’s comments will be dovish, so the euro is unlikely to strengthen even if the ECB’s policy remains unchanged.

Bank of America Merrill Lynch: There’s a slight downside risk for the euro, although a big move is not expected.

UBS: The market is expecting dovish comments from the ECB, so the risks are for the euro’s increase after the central bank’s decision.

Scotiabank: Although the ECB won’t change policy at this meeting, it could signal a policy easing in September and this should hurt the euro.

EUR/TRY approached strong resistance level 3.4000
7/21/2016

EUR/TRY approached strong resistance level 3.4000
Next buy target – 3.4700
EUR/TRY has been rising sharply in the last few trading days inside the minor impulse wave 3 – which started earlier – when the pair reversed up from the support zone lying between the pivotal support level 3.1880 (which reversed the price multiple times in March), lower daily Bollinger Band, 50% Fibonacci correction of the previous upward impulse form November and the support trendline of the daily up channel from May of 2015.

EUR/TRY is currently trading close to the strong resistance level 3.4000 (top of the previous impulse wave 1). If the pair breaks above 3.4000 - EUR/TRY can then rise to the next buy target at the major resistance level 3.4700.

AUD/NZD rising inside minor C-wave
Next buy target - 1.0800
AUD/NZD has been rising in the last few trading sessions inside the C-wave of the intermediate ABC correction (4) from the start of July. The active C-wave earlier broke the resistance level 1.0540 (which stopped the previous A-wave). The breakout of this resistance level accelerated the active minor C-wave – which then broke the next resistance level 1.0700 (intersecting with the 38.2% Fibonacci correction of the previous downward impulse from March).

AUD/NZD is likely to rise further in the active C-wave toward the next buy target at the resistance level 1.0800. Long entries can be protected with the stop-loss placed below the aforementioned price level 1.0700.

GOLD probably make a rebound to the area of 1343.75
7/21/2016

The rebound from the level of 4/8 (1312.50) can be completed back to the area of STD1, which still has the bullish color. Nevertheless, we should not exclude the scenario of falling to the level of 3/8 (1296.88), for which requires the break of 4/8 at least one third of the level widths. It should be noted that 4/8 was already support, so the probability of re-bounce is high. The first target can be the level of 6/8 (1343.75).

Trade recommendation:

Buy – 1318.00; sl – 1311.00; tp – 1341.00.

EUR/USD: two "V-Bottoms" in a row points to possible new high
7/22/2016



The price is consolidating under the previously broken “Triangle”. Also, we’ve got two local “V-Bottoms” in a row. So, the market is likely going to achieve the 34 Moving Average. If a pullback from this line happens, there’ll be an opportunity to see a decline towards a support at 1.1001 – 1.0970.



We’ve got a local flat between the 89 Moving Average and the nearest support at 1.0980. Therefore, the pair is likely going rise in the direction of a resistance at 1.1057 – 1.1074. However, if a pullback from this area arrives later on, bears will probably try to catch a support at 1.0970.

GBP/USD: flat in the "Triangle"

The price has been moving in a flat’s range along a resistance at 1.3226. Also, we’ve got a “Triangle”, so the pair is likely going to move up towards the 89 Moving Average. If bulls be stopped here, there’ll be a chance to have a downward movement, so we should keep an eye on the next support at 1.3116 – 1.3015.




As we can see on the one-hour chart, there’s a flat in progress. It’s likely that the market is going to reach the closest resistance at 1.3313 – 1.3336 in the short term. If we see a pullback from this area, bears will probably reach the next support at 1.3104 – 1.3063.

USD/JPY will test mark at 104.69

The pair failed to consolidate above the level of 4/8 (106.25). In addition, there was price fixing below STH4, that indicates a possible decline to the level of 3/8 (104.69). STD1 changed color, which also contributes to the bearish scenario. The fall can be held with the current position, so in the near future we should testing of mark at the level 3/8 (104.69). Slight breakdown upward STH4 is unlikely to change the plans of the bears.

Trade recommendation:

Sell – 106.30; sl – 107.20; tp 104.60.

EUR/USD: bears going to come back to the market
7/22/2016



There’s a resistance by the upper “Window”. Also, we’ve got an “Engulfing” pattern, but it hasn’t been confirmed yet. Therefore, the market is likely going to reach a resistance by the middle of the last huge black candle. If a pullback from this level happens, there’ll be an opportunity to have another downward movement. As we can see on the Daily chart, there’re a couple of “High Waves”, but their confirmation hasn’t arrived yet. So, a downward movement is going to move on until any reversal pattern forms.



We’ve got a local correction under the upper “Window”. At the same time, there’s a resistance by the 55 Moving Average, but we have a confirmed “Harami” at the local low. So, the market is likely going to test the 89 Moving Average during the day. If we see a pullback from this line, a downward movement becomes possible.

There’s a “Harami” at the last high, which has been confirmed enough, so the price reached the 144 Moving Average afterwards.

As we can see on the Daily chart, we’ve got an “Engulfing”, but its confirmation is still on the way. Therefore, bears are going to achieve the 21 Moving Average soon.



We’ve got an “Engulfing” and a “Hammer” at the nearest strong support level. So, it’s likely to see a local correction during the day, but the next stage on the current bearish correction is still on the table.

US dollar: outlook for July 25-31
7/22/2016

Data released in the United States during the past week were mostly positive: building permits, housing starts and existing home sales exceeded expectations, while unemployment claims were at their lowest since April. The biggest disappointment was the slide in Philadelphia Fed manufacturing index.

Next week the focus will be on the meeting of the US Federal Reserve since the Brexit vote. The central bank is not expected to raise interest rate, but traders, as usual, will be watching the changes in its statement. It’s interesting how the Fed evaluates the impact of Britain’s decision to leave the euro area on the US economy. According to the Federal funds rate futures, the possibility of a rate hike in the US by December increased since the beginning of the month from 12% to 45%. If American data keep coming positive, traders will start pricing in higher US rates. Monetary policy divergence between the Fed and other central banks, which are expected to ease policy this summer – the Bank of Japan, the Bank of England, Reserve Banks of Australia and New Zealand, – will once again become the main driver of the market supporting demand for the US dollar.

US dollar index, which tracks the dynamics of the greenback versus a basket of currencies, breached resistance at 96.80. This level limited dollar’s advance since the end of June. Above 97.00 next targets lie and 97.50 and 98.00.

Other important events in the US economic calendar next week include CB consumer confidence and new home sales on Tuesday, core durable goods orders on Wednesday, unemployment claims on Thursday and advance GDP for Q2 and Chicago PMI on Friday.

EUR/USD: outlook for July 25-31
7/22/2016

During the past week EUR/USD moved lower, but remained in range, within which it’s staying since the end of June. The euro was affected by extremely weak economic sentiment indicators from Germany and the euro area. In addition, despite the fact that traders didn’t expect the European Central Bank to ease policy on Thursday, they were looking forward to dovish comments by the regulator’s president Mario Draghi.

However, Draghi gave very little insight on future policy of the ECB. He noted that growth and inflation were moving along the path projected in June and that the regulator will monitor the economic situation. Draghi also said that if needed the ECB will act using all available tools. However, the regulator’s head gave no hints that monetary stimulus may be extended in September. That’s why there was no big euro selloff after the meeting. In addition, the euro area’s July manufacturing and services PMIs released on Friday turned out better than expected showing that these sectors aren’t much concerned about Brexit.

The economic calendar for the next week is also rather interesting. On Monday Germany will release retails sales and Ifo business climate. On Wednesday German consumer climate will be published and on Friday we’ll learn euro area’s flash inflation and preliminary GDP for Q2. Statistics from the US may be even more important for EUR/USD, so check American calendar as well. We think that there will be opportunities to sell the pair on its attempts to get a bit higher, but with the lack of action from the ECB we expect no strong decline in the euro. Support is at 1.0970 and 1.0920. Resistance is at 1.1080 and 1.1130.

GBP/USD: outlook for July 25-31
7/22/2016

GBP/USD spent most of the week between 1.3330 and 1.3070. On the one hand, the pound was supported by higher UK labor market data. However, British retail sales contracted and services PMI fell by almost 5 points.

All in all, the picture for sterling looks more negative than positive. The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has slashed its forecasts for the UK, while G20 draft communiqué stated that the recent ‘Brexit’ vote could collaborate with the global uncertainty. The Bank of England is expected to ease monetary policy in about 2 weeks. As the expectations of the US Federal Reserve’s rate hike start to revive, this won’t allow GBP/USD to achieve any sizeable growth. We expect the pound to stay under pressure.

Next week pay attention to the UK preliminary GDP on Wednesday, Gfk consumer confidence on Thursday and net lending to individuals on Friday. Support is at 1.3050 ahead of 1.2860 and 1.2500. Resistance lies at 1.3300 and 1.3500.

USD/JPY: outlook for July 25-31
7/22/2016

USD/JPY made an attempt to take out 107.50, but failed to break higher and returned to the 106.00 area. The advance of the pair since the beginning of July was caused by speculation the Bank of Japan would directly finance Japanese government debt – a policy known as “helicopter money”. This week selloff was triggered by the release of the interview given by the Bank of Japan’s Governor Kuroda to BBC Radio, in which he said that Japan doesn’t need to and won’t do such thing.

Yet, note that after the retracement to the downside the pair stayed above the key support levels at 105.00 and 103.50. The reason of such resilience is that traders think that even if the BOJ doesn’t use such unconventional tool as “helicopter money”, it will expand its current monetary stimulus measures at its meeting on Friday, July 29. As Kuroda said, “there are no significant limitations to further monetary easing”.

The Bank of Japan has reasons to act, because Japanese economic statistics remains week and consumer prices keep contracting. Fresh inflation figures from Japan will be also released on Friday. Yet, with USD/JPY far above 100.00, the Bank of Japan can allow itself not to be very aggressive. For now, the general downtrend is still in place – see the declining daily MAs. A fix above 200-week MA at 106.70 is needed to give the bulls more power. Fundamentally the figures out of the United States will also have an impact on USD/JPY next week as they may change the expectations for the US Federal Reserve’s rates. If the pair manages to overcome resistance at 107.50, next stops will be at 108.25 and 109.60.

AUD/USD: outlook for July 25-31
7/22/2016

Australian dollar declined on the expectations that the Reserve bank of Australia will cut interest rate at the next meeting in August. The minutes of the RBA’s July meeting showed that the central bank thinks that the nation’s economic growth may have declined in Q2, while inflation remains weak.

The most important piece of information ahead of the RBA meeting will be the release of Australian Q2 inflation figures on Wednesday: the data will either strengthen the case for lower rates or make the market reprice the odds of a rate cut.

AUD/USD is trading just above 0.7450 – this is a support line connecting May and June lows. Below this point support is at 0.7400 and 0.7350. Resistance is at 0.7500 and 0.7550.

EUR/USD & German Ifo Business Climate: En route to 1.0900?
7/24/2016

Today at 08:00 GMT will be released a key data for Germany, as we'll know the Ifo Business Climate for July and this would be an interesting event to pay attention following Brexit's outcome, as the last ZEW sentiment report gave hints that Brexit's referendum will play a role into the german economy's development for coming months. Numbers in recent months have been positive for Ifo, but a slight decline from 108.7 to 107.7 is expected by analysts.

The technical overview for EUR/USD at H1 chart is still calling for more downside after recent positive US data published. Also, the uncertainty around Eurozone's economy following “Brexit” is still alive. There is one bearish trend line projected from July 14th highs and the pair is consolidating below the 200 SMA. A breakout below the 1.0958 level (if Germany's data is dovish) will open the doors to reach the 1.0909 zone.

EUR/USD: will the bears manage to hold positions?
7/25/2016

On the daily EUR/USD chart the bears made another attempt to seize 1.1-1.1175 and suceeded. The level of 1.1 is currently acting as resistance. Downward target is at 1.089 (161.8% according to AB=CD).



On H1 resistance levels lie at 1.0987, 1.1036 and 1.1053. If the first of them is breached, the pair could test the upper border of the bearish trend and then move to 88.6% target of a "Bat" pattern. If the bears manage to protect their gains, decline towards 1.0890 will continue.

[B]EUR/USD: "Double Bottom" blocked bearish rally[B]
7/25/2016



The price has been consolidating under the previously broken “Triangle” pattern. Also, bears faced a support at 1.0970, which led to form a “Double Bottom”, so the market is likely going to reach a resistance at 1.1001 – 1.1015 in the short term. However, if a pullback from this area happens, there’ll be a chance to see a decline towards a support at 1.0911.



There was a flat between the 89 Moving Average and the nearest support at 1.0980. Finally, sellers tried to break the flat’s lower side, but a bearish rally didn’t happen, so we’ve got a “Double Bottom” pattern. Therefore, the pair is likely going to get a resistance at 1.1001 – 1.1015 during the day. Considering a possible pullback from this area, a following downward movement becomes possible.

GBP/USD: bears trying to escape from the "Triangle"

The pair has been moving in a range of the current “Triangle” pattern. If the price gets a support at 1.3116, bulls will likely try to reach a resistance at 1.3289 shortly. However, bears are still in the game, so we should keep an eye on the next support at 1.2849 – 1.2795.



As we can see on the one-hour chart, the price try to find a lodgement under the broken “Triangle”. At the same time, there’s a “Double Bottom” right after a support at 1.3063. So, the market is likely going to get a resistance at 1.3238 – 1.3273. If we see a pullback from this area, another bearish movement will be on the table.

If USD/JPY manages to rise above the high, set during the Asian trading session on July 25 (106.75), it will activate the "Bat" pattern target at 88.6%). The move below support at 105.6 with the following recoil will create room for the formation of the widening wedge.

EUR/USD: "Hammer" calling an upward correction
7/25/2016



There’re an “Engulfing” and a “Hammer” at the last low, but both patterns have a quite weak confirmation. So, the market is likely going to get a resistance at the middle of the last huge black candle. If a pullback from this level happens, there’ll be an opportunity to have another downward price movement. As we can see on the Daily chart, the two last “High Waves” haven’t been confirmed, so bears will probably move on until any reversal pattern arrives.



The price has been declining, but we’ve got a “Hammer” at the last low. Therefore, the pair is likely going to reach the 34 Moving Average during the day. However, if buyers be stopped by this line, bears will probably deliver a new low shortly.

USD/JPY: "Shooting Star" points to a possible new local low
7/25/2016



We’ve got a “Harami” at the local high, but its confirmation is still developing. So, the price is likely going to reach 55 Moving Average, which could act as a support. As we can see on the Daily chart, there’s an “Engulfing” at the last high, but it hasn’t been confirmed yet. If the price gets a resistance on the 34 Moving Average, then a decline toward the 21 Moving Average becomes possible.



There’s a consolidation in progress. Also, we’ve got a bearish “Shooting Star” at the local high. Therefore, the market is likely going to continue the current downward movement.

NZD/CAD reversed from support zone
Next buy target – 0.9300
NZD/CAD recently reversed up from the support zone lying between the strong support level 0.9080 (former powerful resistance level from June – which also recently reversed the price with the strong daily Japanese candlesticks reversal pattern Hammer, as can be seen below) and the 50% Fibonacci retracement of the previous sharp upward price impulse from the end of April.

Next buy target - 1.3300
USD/CAD continues to rise after the earlier breakout of the pivotal resistance level 1.3120 (which has been steadily reversing the price from the end of May, as can be seen from the daily USD/CAD chart below). The breakout of the resistance level 1.3120 is likely to accelerate the active (c)-wave of the minor ABC correction 2 from the start of June.

USD/JPY ahead CB Consumer Confidence: Risk to the downside prevails
7/26/2016

Today at 14:00 GMT we'll know the U.S CB Consumer Confidence for July, where analysts are expecting a decline from 98.0 to 95.6 on this release. That should put an interesting short-term scenario on the US Dollar, as it has been rallying since last weeks. However, in the USD/JPY pair case, we have been seeing during Monday a Yen's strengthening against other currencies, such as the greenback, amid reports of further stimulus from Bank Of Japan.

Current technical picture for USD/JPY at H1 chart is showing a possible triangle pattern formation, as the current structure has been setting up as contractive. If CB's reading is weaker than expected, then we can see further declines toward the 104.80 price zone, while a positive data can push the pair higher towards the 106.66 level, where it could also attempt to break the triangle and the bullish bias can strengthen on a short-term basis.

EUR/USD: new local high coming soon because of the "Flag"
7/26/2016



The price faced a support at 1.0970, which led to form a “Double Bottom”, so we’ve got an upward correction in progress. Therefore, the market is likely going to achieve an area between the 34 Moving Average and the nearest resistance at 1.1057. If a pullback from here happens, there’ll be an opportunity to have a decline in the direction of a support at 1.0911.



As we can see on the one-hour chart, there’s a “Double Bottom” pattern, which brought bulls into the market. Also, we’ve got a “Flag”, so the pair is likely going to rise towards the 89 Moving Average.
