MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis
EURUSD has reached a significant support level at 1.2973 (S2) it bounced from that level and rose subsequently to form a high at 1.3159 (R1). A break above that level would suggest a target of 1.3216 (R2) and a further rise will then focus on the next target at 1.3284 (R3). On the downside, if the price does manage to stay below current resistance level1.1.3159 (R1) we can expect retesting of 1.3080 (S1). A further decline will then bring focus to the next support level at 1.2973 (S2) a strong technical support level. We expect the price to retest first resistance level and then to move upwards targeting first and second resistance level. Look for long positions in today trading session with a stop los below 1.2973 (S2).

GBPUSD rose sharply yesterday from 1.5654 (S3) and made a top at 1.5815. If it breaks above that level we can expect the price to retest 1.5885 (R3), a significant strong support level. Be on the alert for a correction downwards towards 1.1.5735 (S2) and then a continuation to an upward move. Both of our Moving Averages are pointing to a bullish signal. We believe that the bullish pressure will continue. Look for long positions around 1.5735 (S2) with a stop loss below 1.5654 (S3).

USDJPY is forming higher bottoms and we are in a clear uptrend move, as it rises for 2 consecutive weeks penetrating successfully yesterday’s resistance level 78.63. Both of our moving averages are giving a strong support to the pair in its uptrend move and are both bullish. Look for long positions targeting 79.74 (R1) a significant technical and psychological level for the bears. A stop loss should be placed below 78.60.
