MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis
After the pair formed a bottom at 1.2973 (S4) – Fibonacci 50% (daily chart), the EURUSD was able to break above yesterday’s resistance at 1.3139 (S1) and we now expect the price to find a strong resistance around 1.3300 – February high. A break above the first resistance level of 1.3237 (R1) would suggest a target of 1.3284 (R2). On the other hand if the price fails to break above 1.3237 (R1), we can expect the pair to retest 1.3139 (S1). We should expect a correction downwards towards 1.3139 (S1) and then a continuation of the uptrend.
SUMMARY : Up
TREND : Up trend
MA10 : Bullish
MA20 : Bullish
STOCHASTIC : Neutral
MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis
The GBPUSD continued to rise from 1.5654 (S4) and reached a high yesterday at 1.5885 (R1). It seems the pair is heading for a correction and it will retest the first support level of 1.5815 (S1). A break below that level would suggest a target of 1.5786 (S2) and a further decline will then focus on the next target at 1.5735 (S3). On the upside, if the price rebounds from the first support level 1.5815 (S1) we can expect retesting of 1.5885 (R1). A further rise will then bring focus to the next resistance level at 1.5928 (R2) a strong technical resistance level – year high.
SUMMARY : Up
TREND : Up trend
MA10 : Bullish
MA20 : Bullish
STOCHASTIC : Neutral
MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis
The USDJPY continued to rise from 76.02 (S4) and reached a high on Friday at 79.87 (R1) a strong resistance level as it has been retested 3 times in the past (March, April, June 2011). If the bulls do not overcome that level then we expect the price to move downwards for a correction and then to continue its upwards move. A break below first support level would suggest a target of 78.19 (S2) and a further decline will then focus on the next target at 76.53 (S3). On the upside, if the price rebounds from the second support level 78.19 (S2) we can expect retesting of 79.87 (R1).Sustained rise will be then indicating second objective at 80.23 (R2) resistance level.
