Technical Outlook September 15, 2016

EURUSD

 

The currency pair held its positions even after a weak Eurozone manufacturing index. Investors pay attention to the US data. Yesterday’s import and export prices data was disappointing and USD was under the pressure. Today there is a large number of releases and we expect considerable volatility growth during the day. As for the technical analysis, the currency pair has still no trend as the situation is unclear.

The trend is neutral on the Weekly chart as the price is close to the MA55 balance line. There were some attempts to grow towards 1,15000. However, the price stopped at 1,13000 and reversed then. There is a probability of further decline in the next couple of days.

There is no trend on the Hourly chart as the MA-channel is horizontal and the price is above the MA55 balance line. It is better to avoid trading today as many important releases expected.

 

GBPUSD

 

The currency pair reached the balance line after US data that was weaker than expected. UK Labor Market statistics was mixed and had almost no influence on GBP. We recommend paying attention to the Bank of England Meetings event which it to take place today. The British central bank is expected to leave the current monetary policy unchanged. However, investors will likely pay attention to the MPC members comments on the future of rates and Bond buying programme. It is also important to wait until the US Retail Sales and Philly Fed Manufacturing index data.

There is the downtrend on the Weekly chart as the price is below the MA55. The currency pair has almost reached the target at 1,35000 and reversed on the top of the upside tendency. We expect GBP/USD to decline in the next couple of days according to technical analysis.

The downtrend is in progress on the Hourly chart as the MA-channel goes downwards and the price is above the MA55. You may try short trades from the trendline with stops above this line.

AUDUSD

 

The currency pair is trading within a range and had no sharp bounce off. There is a probability of further decline. Today’s Australian Labor Market data was mixed and had almost no influence on AUD/USD. There are no factors to support the currency pair. However, it is better to wait until the US data is to be released. 

The uptrend is still in progress on the Weekly chart as the price is above the MA55. The currency pair formed a Doji last week. This pattern may be a sign of future reverse in tendency. We advise to seek for short trades triggers this week. As for targets, the currency pair aims 0,71500 level which is still too far from the current one.

There is the downtrend on the Hourly chart as the MA-channel goes downwards and the price is below the MA55. You may try short trades from the balance line area.  

USDCHF

 

The situation with the currency pair is still unclear as there is still no trend. Today’s US data may change the situation and make it more clear for traders. However, it is difficult to say something about the future direction of fluctuations as we have no idea how positive or negative today’s data may be. 

There is no trend on the Weekly chart as the price is fluctuating around the MA55. WE have seen some decline last week and we expect the currency pair to grow in the nearest future. 

There is also no clear direction on the Hourly chart as the MA-channel is horizontal and the price is close to the MA55 balance line. It is better to avoid trading at least before results of the US data releases.

Gold/Silver Technical Outlook September 15, 2016

Technical Outlook September 19, 2016

EURUSD

 

Surprising Friday’s US CPI data had a considerable impact on EUR/USD and pushed it down. CPI growth was not significant as it changed to 0,1% only. However, it was enough to change market’s mood and lead to downside tendency. This data increased interest rates hike odds. It is to notice, that the results of 2 day’s FOMC Meetings are to be announced on Wednesday. The currency pair may be trading within a range before this event. In addition, there is no important data from Eurozone and US within those three days which may influence fluctuations.

There is no trend on the Weekly chart as the price is close to the MA55 balance line. The currency pair may continue its decline this week depending on the results of FOMC Meetings. If the Fed decides to hike rates, USD will gain strong momentum.

Technical Outlook September 20, 2016

EURUSD

 

The currency pair dynamics was according to our expectations. EUR/USD was trading in a tight range with low volatility waiting for the FOMC to take any decision. We can see the downtrend on the chart. However, the situation is still unclear and the currency pair is unlikely to develop its downside tendency before the FOMC Meetings. This dynamics may continue until Wednesday’s evening. If the currency pair leaves the range, there is a probability of further downside movement.

The currency pair had a sharp upside momentum and wasted a short trades from the MA55 balance line. Yesterday session resulted in an expected decline. However, we had no opportunity to open any position. Today is a “D-day” for the USD as the results of two days’ FED marathon will be released. There are several scenarios but we are going to describe only two of them. FOMC decides to leave the rates unchanged. If this scenario comes true, USD may be under pressure and decline. There is also another possible scenario – FOMC decides to leave rates unchanged but make some signals of readiness to hike rates during December Meetings. In this case USD may gain some support in advance.

Technical Outlook September 22, 2016

EURUSD

 

The currency pair was in uptrend after the release of the results of two days’ FOMC Meeting. Interest Rates remained unchanged and Fed has made a signal that rates hike is possible in the next few months. However, market participants decided to sell USD as FOMC members said that the economy growth is still unstable and there may be no rates hike in the nearest future. It is also to mention that there was nothing new in FOMC members speeches. Finally, there was no clear hint on the probability of interest rates hike in December.

There is still no trend on the Weekly chart as the price is close to the MA55 balance line. USD is under pressure at the moment and the probability of further moderate growth of EUR/USD is high. 

There is no clear tendency on the Hourly chart as the MA-channel is horizontal and the price is above the MA55. You may try long trades from the MA55 balance line area with stops below this curve.

 

GBPUSD

 

The currency pair may grow in the nearest future because of the results of FOMC Meeting. Today we recommend paying attention to the UK manufacturing orders data. It is also important to take into consideration MPC members Cunliffe and Carney comments. They may give some support to the currency pair. 

There is the downtrend on the Weekly chart as the price is below the MA55. The currency pair failed to reach 1,28500 and we expect GBP/USD to grow.

There is no trend on the Hourly chart as the MA-channel is horizontal and the price is above the MA55. You may try long trades from theMA55 balance line area with stops below the curve.

AUDUSD

 

AUD/USD is still looking upwards after FOMC and Bank of Japan decisions. The price is close to a strong resistance level (weekly chart trend line). The chances to break it through are very high as FOMC decision to leave rates unchanged give additional support to the currency pair. We advise to avoid trading, but as soon as AUD/USD breaks this resistance you may try long trades from it. 

There is still the uptrend on the Weekly chart as the price is above the MA55. We expected the currency pair to go towards 0,71500. However, those expectations are lower at the moment and if the price is able to break through the resistance line, the scenario will change completely.

Gold/Silver Technical Outlook September 22, 2016

GOLD (XAUUSD)

XAU/USD started to grow even before the release of FOMC decision. It is possible, that market participants were inspired by the fact that the Bank of Japan left rates unchanged and has made no crucial decisions. Investors though that FOMC was going to do the same thing and started to buy Gold and Silver. Market participants decided to sell USD as the situation with US growth is still unclear. In addition, there was nothing new or interesting in FOMC members’ speeches. We think that the main reason to sell USD was the fact that there was no clear hint on interest rates hike in December. 

There is the uptrend on the Weekly chart as the price is above the MA55. We have seen some decline according to the technical analysis last week. We expect XAU/USD to bounce off the red trendline this week.

EURUSD

 

The currency pair is in the uptrend presently as the price did not decline towards the MA55 balance line. This tendency established after the FOMC Meeting as Fed had decided to leave rates unchanged. Another Interest rates hike is possible in December. The probability of this event is about 50-60%. This fact gives the opportunity for the Bulls to run the market upside. There was some sharp decline during the American session yesterday which is rather strange. If the currency pair crosses 1,12000 level, there is a possibility of further decline and even a change in the current trend. We still expect that the uptrend is to continue. There are no important events today.

Technical Outlook September 26, 2016

EURUSD

 

The currency pair continued its upside tendency according to our expectations. EUR/USD held at the key 1,12000area with a small fake breakout. There was an opportunity to open a long trade and the price was in a profit area for about 400 pips. You had a chance to close you positions with profit. We expect the currency pair to go upwards this week. However, there is a large number of FOMC member’s speeches. Those event may break technical image. A trend line at 1,1250 is important for further grow. If the price breaks it through, the uptrend may continue.

There is no trend on the Weekly chart as the price is close to the MA55 balance line. USD is under some pressure after the FOMC Meeting. We expect the currency pair to grow moderately. 

There is the uptrend on the Hourly chart as the MA-channel goes upwards and the price is above the MA55. You may try long trades from the MA55 balance line placing stops below the curve.

 

GBPUSD

 

The currency pair had a considerable decline after the UK Minister’s of Foreign Affairs Boris Johnson comments on the initiation of Brexit in the beginning of 2017. Long trades failed to profit because of the decline as the currency pairs are to sensible to such statements. We expect USD to have significant fluctuations this week as some FOMC members are going to give their comments and probably some of them will be on the possibility interest rates hike in December.

There is the downtrend on the Weekly chart as the price is below the MA55 balance line. The currency pair has an opportunity to grow this week according to technical analysis. However, Johnson’s comments still exert pressure on GBP.

There is the downtrend on the Hourly chart as the MA-channel goes downwards and the price is below the MA55 balance line. We advise to avoid trading GBP/USD at the moment.

AUDUSD

 

The currency pair retreated from the trendline on the Weekly chart. AS we have previously noticed, Friday is not a good day to make any crucial decision. In additions, the volatility was weak and the price had no opportunity to go above the trendline. The currency pair may break through the trendline this week if there are no further obstacles. We advise to monitor the readiness of AUD/USD to go further upside today.

There is still the uptrend on the Weekly chart as the price is above the MA55. We expected the price to go down to 0,71500. However, this scenario is hard to be realized as the tendency still looks upwards. If the currency pair breaks through 0,76500, the price may go further upside. 

There is no trend on the Hourly chart as the MA-channel is horizontal and the price is below the MA55 balance line. We advise to avoid trading today and wait for clearer signals.

USDCHF

 

The currency pair made an expected correction towards the broken through trendline. This correction was even deeper than we thought previously. If you had short trades, they should be closed by stop loss. However, we still believe that the downtrend is in progress and recommend opening short trades only.

There is no trend on the Weekly chart as the price is fluctuating around the MA55. The currency pair may continue its downside tendency after the FOMC Meeting.

Technical Outlook September 27, 2016

EURUSD

 

The currency pair crossed the trendline on the Hourly chart and showed its upside moods in the beginning of the current week. Yesterday’s German Ifo Business Climate data was better than expected as it reached 109,5 points against previous 106,3. This data had an impact on EUR/USD. There was an opportunity to buy from the MA55 balance line. You could take about 500 pips as profit in this case. We expect the currency pair to grow moderately today. However, you have to pay attention to ECB and FOMC members comments as they may change the situation.

There is no trend on the Weekly chart as the price is close to the MA55 balance line. FOMC Meeting last week resulted in no decision on interest rates hike and we expect the currency pair to grow moderately as USD is under pressure at the moment.

GBPUSD

 

The currency pair is trying to slow down its decline and the pattern that we have seen yesterday, proves this fact. However, it is still too early to buy as the trend is still looking downwards and the situation may change at any moment. Today there is no important data from UK neither from the USA. If the currency pair breaks through 1,29900, the current trend will change.

AUDUSD

 

The currency pair breaks through the trendline on the Weekly chart and opens a new page in its history. Everything is clear at the moment and this breakthrough looks to be true. You may try to open long trades from 0,76500. However, we are not sure that the trend is already established and this trade will be too risky. 

There is still the uptrend on the Weekly chart as the price is above the MA55 balance line. The chances to decline towards 0,71500 are already very weak and if we have a true breakthrough of the trendline at 0,76500, the downside scenario will be changed.

There is no trend on the Hourly chart as the MA-channel is horizontal and the price is below the MA55 balance line. We advise to try long trades. However, you are to remember that long positions are too risky at the moment as there is no clear confirmation of the breakthrough.

USDCHF

 

The currency pair approached the MA55 balance line yesterday in the morning allowing to open short trades. Then USD/CHF moved down for about 400 pips offering an opportunity to take profit. This week seems to be nervous due to the enormous number of FOMC representatives speeches and debates between Clinton and Trump. The currency pair breaks through the trendline on the Hourly chart and we advise to avoid trading at the moment.

EURUSD

 

The currency pair declined yesterday because of the better than expected US data, debates between Clinton and Trump, OPEC meeting and FOMC members’ comments. It is to mention that the main OPEC meeting is to take place today. Long trades failed to bring profit. The trend is going to change as we may see the breakthrough of the upside trendline. We advise to try short trades. Pay special attention to 1,11900-1,11920 area. In addition, there are many events to follow today. US durable Goods Orders, Crude Oil Inventories, Janet Yellen and Mario Draghi speeches and so on.

The currency pair 1,29900. This was the key area to observe as the uptrend starts above it. We expect GBP/USD to go upwards to 1,30600. Here lies the trendline.

In addition, it is important to pay attention to MPC member’s Shafik comments today.

EURUSD

 

The currency pair continued to be trading in both directions despite the better than expected US GDP q/q data. After this statistics, market participants expectations on the probability of interest rates hike grew above 60%. However, there was no significant decline of EUR/USD.  Stock market was in a downtrend yesterday and this may be the reason why USD failed to go upwards. There is a large number of Eurozone and US data today. We expect the US data to influence further EUR/USD dynamics.

There is no trend on the Weekly chart as the price is close to the MA55. FOMC members decided to leave interest rates unchanged. We expect the currency pair to grow moderately.

AUDUSD

 

The currency pair confirmed that the breakthrough of the trendline on the Weekly chart was fake. In addition, we have seen AUD/USD to change its tendency to downside on the Hourly chart. This fact says to us that the upside momentum was too weak for the price to continue hold its positions at the same area. We expect US data to have considerable impact on AUD/USD today. 

There is still the uptrend on the Weekly chart as the price is above the MA55 balance line. The scenario for the currency pair to go towards 0,71500 was cancelled as the trendline on the Weekly chart was crossed. However, if this breakthrough was really fake, AUD/USD may reverse towards 0,71500.

Gold/Silver Technical Outlook September 30, 2016

GOLD (XAUUSD)

XAU/USD established new weekly lows. However, better than expected US data took the wind out of Bears’ sails. Technical image on the Weekly chart prevent Gold from going further downside. New important events are needed to allow gold to decline significantly. Good US GDP 3rd quarter statistics may offer such an opportunity. However, it is to be released in the end of the year. We expect XAU/USD to establish new lows on today’s US data, although those new lows are supposed to be close to the previous ones.

It is still important to wait until the release of Friday’s US Labor market data as it is expected to play the key role in fluctuations.

There is no trend on the Weekly chart as the price is close to the MA55. The currency pair was trading in a tight range last week. We expect EUR/USD to trading within the same range this week.

There is no trend on the Hourly chart as the MA-channel is horizontal and the price is close to the MA55. We advise to avoid trading as there is no clear trend.    

 

GBPUSD

 

The currency pair did a correction before further downside move. GBP/USD went towards the MA55 balance line to open trades. However, it did it at night. You may try to open short trades closer to the MA55 and place stops above the curve. Yesterday’s UK Services PMI was better than expected. However, latest talks on Brexit give support to USD in this currency pair. 

There is the downtrend on the Weekly chart as the price is below the MA55 balance line. The currency pair was in the uptrend in the beginning of the last week and it declined in the end. We expect GBP/USD to decline moderately this week.

There is the downtrend on the Hourly chart as the MA-channel goes downwards and the price is below the MA55 balance line. We advise to open short trades closer to the MA55 and place stops above this curve.

AUDUSD

 

The currency pair slides down to the support line which is expected to be broken through today. It is possible to make a daily strategy according to those expectations. We think that you may try to open short trades from the fast MA13 before the trendline on the Hourly chart is to be broken through. If something goes wrong, you will have some space to close positions. Stop losses should be places at 200 pips from the order.

There is still the uptrend on the Weekly chart as the price is above the MA55 balance line. The breakthrough of the trend line at 0,76500 was fake. The downside scenario for AUD/USD is still actual.

There is a weak downtrend on the Hourly chart as the MA-channel goes downwards and the price is below the MA55. We advise to open short trades from the MA13 and place stops above the MA55 balance line.

USDCHF

 

The long trades from the MA55 balance line were successful. You could take about 300 pips as profit. It was enough to fix a part of positions and to protect the others. USD/CHF still looks strange as it dynamics not alike to this of “allied” currency pair. However, even in this situation it was possible to quit without losses. Today we advise to pay attention to US Unemployment Claims data.

There is no trend on the Weekly chart as the price is fluctuating around the MA55 balance line. The trend is still unclear but we expect the currency pair to grow moderately.

There is the uptrend on the Hourly chart as the MA-channel goes upwards and the price is below the MA55. We advise to take no decision today and to wait until clearer signals.
