Technical Analysis for Major Currencies

EURO

The Euro versus Dollar pair was able to form a bearish technical pattern, seen in the image above, with a neckline at 1.4615. We expect the pair to decline on the intraday and short term basis, targeting 1.4360 before extending declines towards 1.4275. The stochastic indicator is showing oversold signs, which may result in a slight upside correction to retest the above mentioned neckline before continuing the expected decline, which will remain as far as 1.4765 is intact.

The trading range for today is among the key support at 1.4275 and the key resistance at 1.4845

The general trend is to the upside as far as 1.4135 remains intact with targets at 1.6000

Recommendation: Based on the charts and explanations above, our opinion is selling the pair from 1.4615 to 1.4500 and stop loss above 1.4705 might be appropriate.

GBP

The 23.6% correction limited further inclines for the pair, where it reversed to the downside to near the 38.2% correction for the bullish wave, seen in the image above. The short and medium term declines may face volatility near the current support at 1.5745, as momentum indicators show the possibility for a slight upside correction towards 1.5870 before reversing back to the downside towards 1.5555, as far as 1.6150 remains intact.

JPY

The USD/JPY pair reached the expected downside target to hit the key support for the downside channel at 88.55, seen in the image above, where we expect the pair to incline on the short term basis towards 94.00; supported by positive signs on momentum indicators. The first resistance, which may be an obstacle for the pair is at 90.30, where a breakout of this level will open the way for today's target at 91.60. This incline remains as far as 88.50 is intact.

The trading range for today is among the key support at 88.00 and the key resistance at 94.70

Recommendation: Based on the charts and explanations above, our opinion is buying the pair with the breach of 90.30 to 91.60 and stop loss below 89.55 might be appropriate.

CHF

The Dollar versus Swissy pair continued to surge to the upside to touch the key resistance of the minor bullish channel that is taking the pair to the upside on the short term. From the image above, we see a minor resistance level is currently the neckline for a possible bullish technical pattern, which may reverse the pair to the downside in correctional movements to reach 1.0300, before rebounding to the upside and completing the pattern by breaching the 1.0365 level and open the way towards 1.0550. This incline is valid as far as 1.0365 is intact on the four hour charts.

CAD

After retesting the previously breached neckline for the bullish pattern last Friday, the pair was able to rebound from 1.0850 nearing 1.1000, as expected. Momentum indicators are showing the pair within an overbought area, which may result in a slight downside correction towards 1.0920 before rebounding back to the upside on the intraday basis targeting the 161.8% and 176.4% extensions at 1.1080 and 1.1120 respectively, which will then complete a bearish harmonic pattern with a PRZ at the above mentioned levels. This incline is valid as far as 1.0830 is intact.
