GBPUSD remains sidelined since the last Wednesday and retreats from its intraday high so far on Monday. Even so, a 13-day-old ascending trend channel defends the pair buyers. More immediately, a convergence of the 50-EMA and an upward-sloping trend line from early October, around 1.1760, restricts the quote’s nearby downside. Following that, the aforementioned...
EURUSD refreshed a 4.5-month high by piercing the 200-DMA ahead of the US Retail Sales. Even so, a successful break of the stated key moving average level, around 1.0430 by the press time, appears necessary for the bulls to keep the reins, in addition to the downbeat US data. Following that, the 78.6% Fibonacci retracement level of May-September declines, near...
A clear downside break of the 100-DMA, as well as a daily closing below July’s peak, keeps USDJPY sellers hopeful. However, a convergence of the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level of the May-October upside and an upward-sloping support line from May 24, around 136.00, appears a tough nut to crack for the bears. Following that, a slump toward the 200-DMA support of...
USDCAD posted the biggest daily slump in six years on Friday and pushed back the bulls. The bears, however, have a long way to cover before taking control as a 15-month-old rising trend line, around 1.3330 by the press time, defends the upside expectations. Even if the quote breaks the said key support, the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement of August-October upside,...
Despite retreating from the 100-DMA during the last week, EURUSD defends the upside break of the 50-DMA and five-month-old descending trend line as traders await the Fed’s verdict on Wednesday. The major currency pair’s latest rebound also gains support from the firmer oscillators. As a result, bulls are hopeful of overcoming the 100-DMA hurdle surrounding 1.0070....
EURUSD jostles with a four-month-old resistance line, as well as the 50-DMA, respectively around 0.9870 and 0.9900, as it lures buyers near a fortnight top. Given the firmer RSI and bullish MACD signals, the major currency pair is likely to refresh the monthly top, currently around the parity level. In doing so, September’s peak surrounding 1.0200 will be crucial...
After staying off the bear’s radar during the first two days of the week, EURUSD returned to the red zone as it broke the weekly support line. The trend line breakdown joins downbeat oscillators to keep sellers hopeful of meeting an upward-sloping trend line support from September 28, around 0.9670. The quote’s further downside, however, will be challenged by the...
USDCAD retreats from the highest level in 29 months as bulls appear to run out of steam. That being said, the recent moves of oscillators and the rising wedge bearish formation on the top teases sellers at the multi-month top. However, a clear downside break of the stated pattern’s support line, around 1.3930 by the press time, as well as the smashing of the...
EURUSD bears take a rest around the two-week-old horizontal support area while waiting for this week’s key catalysts, namely FOMC Meeting Minutes and US CPI. That said, sluggish RSI and bearish MACD signals join the quote’s sustained trading below the 50-SMA to keep sellers hopeful. However, a clear downside break of the 0.9665-50 region appears necessary for the...
GBPUSD remains inside an eight-day-old bullish channel, as well as the 100-SMA, suggesting further upside. However, the 200-SMA and a downward sloping resistance line from August 26, respectively around 1.1430 and 1.1480, appear tough nuts to crack for the pair buyers. Also challenging the north-run is the RSI conditions which gradually approach the overbought...
Although the RBNZ didn’t disappoint, like the RBA, and announced a widely expected 0.50% rate hike, the NZDUSD pair remains mildly bid after refreshing the weekly top. In doing so, the Kiwi pair stays below a one-week-old horizontal hurdle surrounding 0.5750. With this, the odds of the quote’s pullback towards the latest swing low near 0.5680 can’t be ruled out....
AUDUSD reverses the previous weekly gains as the RBA disappoints bulls with 25 basis points (bps) of a rate hike, compared to a widely anticipated 50 bps move. With this, the Aussie pair reverses from a two-week-old resistance line, as well as a horizontal area comprising multiple tops marked since September 26. That said, the pair’s latest weakness aims for the...
EURUSD defends the first weekly gain in three around the 20-year low during early Monday. The recovery also gains support from the RSI and the MACD. However, an downward sloping resistance line from September 12, around 0.9830 by the press time, challenges the immediate upside moves. In a case where the quote rises past 0.9830, the 200-SMA and the 61.8% Fibonacci...
AUDUSD fails to extend the previous day’s corrective bounce off the two-year low as a 12-day-old resistance line joins the 61.8% Fibonacci Expansion (FE) of April-August moves, around 0.6530, to recall the bears. The nearly oversold RSI conditions, however, challenge the pullback moves, which in turn suggest limited downside and highlight the 78.6% FE level near...
USDJPY has been navigating inside the 300-pip trading range at a 24-year high in the last three weeks. Despite the yen pair’s latest inaction, the lower low on prices joins the lower bottom on the RSI (14), which in turn joins firmer MACD to keep the buyers hopeful. However, a clear upside break of 144.75, comprising the 78.6% Fibonacci Expansion (FE) of the...
EURUSD gyrates between the 50-DMA and a two-month-old support line surrounding the yearly bottom flashed last week. The steady RSI and bearish MACD signals, however, keep the sellers hopeful as markets await the Fed. That said, a downside break of the aforementioned support line, around 0.9850 by the press time may avail an intermediate halt near the 0.9800...
NZDUSD dropped to the lowest level since May 2020 before bouncing off 0.5940 on Friday. The recovery, however, remains unattractive as the Kiwi pair stays inside a six-week-old bearish channel. Even so, the oversold RSI conditions may allow short-term buyers to aim for 0.6100-10 resistance confluence, including the 21-DMA and the stated channel’s upper line. It’s...
Despite the latest pullback from a 24-year high, the USDJPY remains inside a five-month-old megaphone formation suggesting a further widening of the uptrend. Even so, the overbought RSI (14) suggests a pullback of the yen pair, which in turn highlights a two-month-old horizontal support area surrounding 134.00-134.40. Following that, the 50-DMA and 100-DMA could...
