NPBFX offers the latest release of analytics on EUR/USD for a better understanding of the current market situation and more efficient trading. Current trend Yesterday, EUR rose uncertainly against USD within the correction after last week’s fall. However, the pair failed to consolidate in the new positions and by the end of the session, lost its advantage. EUR growth is constrained by negative PRC data. Chinese Q4 2018 GDP declined. The indicator fell from 1.6% QoQ to 1.5% QoQ and from 6.5% YoY to 6.4% YoY (the worst figure since 1990). Also, European investors are monitoring the situation around Brexit. Yesterday, Prime Minister Theresa May announced a backup plan for an agreement with the EU. Today, January German and EU data on the index of business sentiment from ZEW will be published. According to the forecast, the number of pessimists in German business circles will increase: the figure will grow from –17.5 to –18.4. EU figure will decrease from –21.0 to –20.1 but pessimism will continue to prevail in European business circles, which may adversely affect EUR. Support and resistance On the daily chart, Bollinger bands move flat. The price range is virtually unchanged but remains wide enough for the current activity level. MACD falls, keeping a strong sell signal (the histogram is below the signal line). Stochastic reached its lows, reversed horizontally, indicating the growing risks of an upward correction in the super short term. It is better to wait until the situation is clear. Resistance levels: 1.1376, 1.1400, 1.1421, 1.1442. Support Levels: 1.1351, 1.1333, 1.1300, 1.1268.

Antony_NPBFX Posted January 25, 2019 Author Share Posted January 25, 2019 AUD/USD: Australian dollar is going down 25.01.2019 Good afternoon, dear forum visitors! NPBFX offers the latest release of analytics on AUD/USD for a better understanding of the current market situation and more efficient trading. Current trend AUD showed a noticeable decline against USD on Thursday, having updated local lows of January 4. At the same time, in the morning the instrument was trading higher, which was due to the publication of a strong report on the Australian labor market for December. The unemployment rate dropped to 5.0%, and the employment rate rose by 21.6K. However, general employment growth was achieved due to an increase in the number of part-time working citizens (24.6K). At the same time, the number of full-time workers fell for the second month in a row, this time by 3K. Thus, the state of the labor market in Australia can't be called stable. Today, the instrument is trading with a raise. Due to the half-empty macroeconomic calendar, investors can concentrate on fixing short profits on AUD. Support and resistance Bollinger Bands in D1 chart demonstrate flat dynamics. The price range is expanding, but it still fails to catch the development of the current “bearish” trend, which indicates the risks of corrective growth. MACD is going down keeping a fairly stable sell signal (located below the signal line). Stochastic, having reached its lows, is trying to reverse upwards, indicating an oversold instrument in the ultra-short term. It is necessary to wait until the upward correction signals are confirmed in the near future. Resistance levels: 0.7115, 0.7145, 0.7165, 0.7200. Support levels: 0.7075, 0.7053, 0.7027, 0.7000. Trading tips To open long positions, one can rely on the rebound from 0.7075 as from support with the subsequent breakout of 0.7115. Take profit — 0.7165 or 0.7200. Stop loss — 0.7080. A breakdown of 0.7075 may be a signal to further sales with target at 0.7000 or 0.6973. Stop loss — 0.7100 or 0.7115. Implementation period: 2-3 days.

Antony_NPBFX Posted January 30, 2019 Author Share Posted January 30, 2019 XAU/USD: gold prices are rising 30.01.2019 Good afternoon, dear forum visitors! NPBFX offers the latest release of analytics on XAU/USD for a better understanding of the current market situation and more efficient trading. Current trend Gold prices continue to rise steadily, renewing highs since May 2018. The instrument is supported by weak USD and soft Fed’s position, which implies a pause in the monetary tightening. Investors are focused on new the complication of US-China relations before the trade negotiations on January 30-31. On Monday, the US Department of Justice officially accused the Chinese company Huawei of two dozen crimes; including violating the sanctions regime against Iran and stealing technology from the American company T-Mobile. Acting US Attorney General Matthew Whitaker said that the US would seek extradition of Huawei Finance Director Meng Wanzhou from Canada. Investors fear that the situation could undermine the prospects for a trade deal. China is unlikely to forgive it and may respond by tightening negotiating positions or creating problems for American companies operating in the PRC, for example, Apple. Support and resistance On the daily chart, Bollinger bands grow moderately. The price range actively expands but not as fast as the "bullish" develops. MACD grows, keeping a strong buy signal (the histogram is above the signal line). Stochastic reached its highs and reversed horizontally, reflecting that the instrument is strongly overbought the super short term. The current indicators’ readings do not contradict the further development of the “bullish” trend in the short term. Nevertheless, the correctional dynamics can develop at the end of the week. Resistance levels: 1314.41, 1317.17, 1320.87. Support levels: 1308.93, 1304.21, 1298.32, 1292.69. Trading tips Long positions can be opened after the breakout of 1314.41 or 1317.17 with the target at 1320.87 or 1324.00. Stop loss is 1310.00 or 1308.93.

Antony_NPBFX Posted February 1, 2019 Author Share Posted February 1, 2019 USD/CHF: instrument trades ambiguously 01.02.2019 Good afternoon, dear forum visitors! NPBFX offers the latest release of analytics on USD/CHF for a better understanding of the current market situation and more efficient trading. Current trend Yesterday, USD was actively declining against CHF but almost completely recovered at the end of the daily session. The market remains focused on the outcome of the Fed meeting. Investors were reassured by the intentions of the FOMC to keep patience before the next rate increase and carefully assess the situation. Jerome Powell noted that there were fewer arguments in favor of the rate hike, and the American economy suffered from the Shutdown, but suggested that all losses would be regained in Q2. Also, investors follow the US-Chinese negotiations that opened yesterday and are awaiting the publication of the December data from the US labor market. The details of the negotiations were not disclosed, but it is known that President Donald Trump can join it. On Friday, Nonfarm Payrolls will be published. The index may fall from 312K to 165K, but the data may be better than predicted, as evidenced by the positive ADP employment release published previously. Support and resistance On the daily chart, Bollinger bands are growing moderately. The price range narrows, reflecting the ambiguous trade nature in the short term. MACD fluctuates but still keeps a weak sell signal (the histogram is below the signal line). Stochastic is reversing into a horizontal plane after a short increase, indicating a decrease in upward corrective risks. The current readings of technical indicators remain uninformative. Resistance levels: 0.9962, 0.9980, 1.0000. Support levels: 0.9933, 0.9904, 0.9871, 0.9847. Trading tips Long positions can be opened after the breakout of 0.9962 with the target at 1.0000. Stop loss is 0.9945–0.9940. Implementation period: 1–2 days. Short positions can be opened after the breakdown of 0.9933–0.9915 with the targets at 0.9871–0.9847. Stop loss is 0.9950–0.9962.

Antony_NPBFX Posted February 4, 2019 Author Share Posted February 4, 2019 NZD/USD: the pair is showing ambiguous dynamics 04.02.2019 Good afternoon, dear forum visitors! NPBFX offers the latest release of analytics on NZD/USD for a better understanding of the current market situation and more efficient trading. Current trend NZD showed a decline on Friday, departing from the updated local high of December 4. The reason for the emergence of "bearish" trend was the publication of positive macroeconomic statistics from the US. The pressure on USD continues to be exerted by the tense situation around the relations between China and the US, although there are positive moments here. Last week, another round of US-China trade negotiations in Washington ended. Both sides rated them as successful and constructive. The Xinhua Agency mentions that China has agreed to increase imports of agricultural, energy and industrial products from the US, as well as cooperate in the field of intellectual property protection. On Thursday, President Donald Trump announced that Finance Secretary, Steven Mnuchin, and Trade Representative, Robert Lighthizer, would go to China for a new round of talks in mid-February, and Trump could meet with Xi Jinping at the end of February. The market assesses the chances of concluding a deal as good. Support and resistance Bollinger Bands in D1 chart show stable growth. The price range expands from above, freeing a path to new local highs for the "bulls". MACD is gradually reversing downwards keeping a previous buy signal (located above the signal line). Stochastic demonstrates similar dynamics, reversing downwards at its maximum levels. It is worth looking into the possibility of corrective decline in the short and/or ultra-short term. Resistance levels: 0.6923, 0.6940, 0.6968, 0.7000. Trading tips To open long positions, one can rely on the breakout of 0.6923 or 0.6940. Take profit — 0.7000. Stop loss — 0.6900 or 0.6890. A breakdown of 0.6871 may be a signal to new sales with target at 0.6814 or 0.6789. Stop loss — 0.6900. Implementation time: 2-3 days.

Antony_NPBFX Posted February 6, 2019 Author Share Posted February 6, 2019 Brent Crude Oil: oil prices are consolidating 06.02.2019 Good afternoon, dear forum visitors! NPBFX offers the latest release of analytics on Brent Crude Oil for a better understanding of the current market situation and more efficient trading. Current trend Prices for Brent crude oil showed a decline on Tuesday, remaining close to the local highs of 2019, updated the day before. Poor data on Factory Orders published on Monday in the United States was the reason for the emergence of negative dynamics. In turn, the instrument is supported by the tense situation around Venezuela, against which the US may impose sanctions. Additional support comes from OPEC, as the cartel intends to continue to cut oil production in order to stabilize supply and demand in the market. The report of the American Petroleum Institute reflected a moderate increase in oil reserves, which did not contribute to the development of "bullish" trend of the instrument. Over the week up to February 1, US Crude Oil Stock grew by 2.514M barrels after an increase of 2.098M barrels in the previous period. Support and resistance Bollinger Bands in D1 chart show unsteady growth. The price range is almost unchanged, significantly limiting the prospects for further growth of the instrument. MACD reversed downwards having formed a weak sell signal (located below the signal line). Stochastic demonstrates a similar trend, reflecting the weakening risks of an overbought instrument in the ultra-short term. The development of a full-fledged downtrend is possible in the short and/or ultra-short term. Resistance levels: 62.30, 63.08, 63.69, 64.42. Support levels: 61.50, 61.00, 60.50, 59.44. Trading tips To open long positions, one can rely on the rebound from the support level of 61.50 with the subsequent breakout of 62.30. Take profit — 63.69 or 64.42. Stop loss — 61.50. A breakdown of 61.50 or 61.00 may be a signal to further sales with target at 59.44 or 58.75. Stop loss — 62.00 or 62.30. Implementation time: 2-3 days.

Antony_NPBFX Posted February 8, 2019 Author Share Posted February 8, 2019 USD/CAD: dollar strengthened 08.02.2019 Good afternoon, dear forum visitors! NPBFX offers the latest release of analytics on USD/CAD for a better understanding of the current market situation and more efficient trading. Current trend Yesterday, USD grew steadily against CAD, renewing its highs since January 25. USD demand is high despite the poor macroeconomic data publication. In addition, traders actively discuss the possible postponing of the planned meeting between US President Donald Trump and Chinese Chairman Xi Jinping. Analysts say the meeting is unlikely before the March deadline, which was set by both countries to conclude a final trade transaction. In general, optimism around the possible completion of the US-Chinese trade conflict has been declining lately, and the White House economic adviser Larry Kudlow said that the countries are still far from the deal. Today, investors wait for January labor market data in Canada. Analysts' forecasts are quite pessimistic. In particular, the January Unemployment Rate is expected to increase from 5.6% to 5.7%, and the Employment Number will increase by only 8K after rising by 9.3K in December. Support and resistance On the daily chart, Bollinger bands move flat. The price range is virtually unchanged but remains quite wide for the current activity level. MACD grows, keeping a strong buy signal (the histogram is above the signal line). Stochastic rises almost vertically but is in near the level of 100, which signals that USD can become overbought in the super-short and short term. The current readings do not contradict the development of the “bullish” trend in the short term. Resistance levels: 1.3327, 1.3374, 1.3443. Support levels: 1.3284, 1.3247, 1.3200, 1.3164. Trading tips Long positions can be opened after the breakout of 1.3327 with the target at 1.3443. Stop loss is 1.3284. Short positions can be opened after the rebound from 1.3327 and the breakdown of 1.3284 with the target at 1.3200 or 1.3164. Stop loss is 1.3327. Implementation period: 2–3 days.

Antony_NPBFX Posted February 11, 2019 Author Share Posted February 11, 2019 USD/JPY: the pair moves flat 11.02.2019 Good afternoon, dear forum visitors! NPBFX offers the latest release of analytics on USD/JPY for a better understanding of the current market situation and more efficient trading. Current trend Today during the Asian session, USD is growing within the correction after the “bearish” end of the last week. The instrument is supported by positive news around the US-PRC trade conflict. As it became known, the final meeting of the heads of the countries will be held in Beijing on February 14–15. Investors continue to respond to the negative macroeconomic statistics, published in Japan last Friday. In particular, in December the Household Spending indicator increased by only 0.1% YoY against the forecast of +0.8% YoY after falling by 0.6% YoY in November, while wages rose moderately from +1.7% YoY to +1.8% YoY, as experts expected. The January Economy Watchers Current Index was revised downwards from 46.8 to 45.6 points, despite the expected increase to 48.6 points. Support and resistance On the daily chart, Bollinger bands grow moderately. The price range is virtually unchanged but remains quite wide for the current level of the market activity. MACD rises, keeping a poor buy signal (the histogram is above the signal line), and is preparing to test the zero line for a breakout. However, Stochastic is directed downwards and is still not responding to the appearance of today's “bullish” dynamics. It is better to wait until the trading signals are clear before opening new positions. Resistance levels: 110.00, 110.45, 111.00. Support levels: 109.54, 109.07, 108.48, 108.00.

Antony_NPBFX Posted February 18, 2019 Author Share Posted February 18, 2019 Brent Crude Oil: oil prices are growing 18.02.2019 Good afternoon, dear forum visitors! NPBFX offers the latest release of analytics on Brent Crude Oil for a better understanding of the current market situation and more efficient trading. Current trend Oil prices continue to grow moderately, updating local highs since the end of November. Quotes are supported by decisive actions of OPEC countries aimed at further reducing production. Last week, Saudi Arabia announced a reduction in March by 0.5 million barrels per day, in addition to what the agreement originally required. The instrument is supported by new US sanctions against Venezuela, as well as increased tensions in the Libyan fields. In turn, the Baker Hughes report on active drilling rigs in the United States published on February 15 put some pressure on prices. Over the past week, the number of drilling rigs in the country increased from 854 to 857 units. Support and resistance The Bollinger Bands in D1 chart show moderate growth. The price range is expanding, however, failing to follow the “bullish” trend, which indicates risks of the overbought instrument in the short term. MACD indicator is growing preserving a stable buy signal (the histogram is above the signal line). Stochastic, having reached its maxima, reversed horizontally, indicating a strong overbought instrument in the ultra-short term. One should keep long positions in the short and/or ultra-short term until the signals for a downward correction appear. Currently, one should not open the new "bullish" positions. Resistance levels: 67.00, 67.47, 67.85, 68.20. Support levels: 66.06, 65.50, 65.00, 64.42. Trading tips To open long positions, one can rely on the breakout of 67.00. Take profit — 67.85 or 68.20. Stop loss – 66.20. Implementation period: 1-2 days. The return of "bearish" dynamics with the breakdown of 66.06 or 65.80 may become a signal for correctional sales with the target at 64.42 or 64.00.

Antony_NPBFX Posted February 22, 2019 Author Share Posted February 22, 2019 USD/CHF: dollar strengthens 22.02.2019 Good afternoon, dear forum visitors! NPBFX offers the latest release of analytics on USD/CHF for a better understanding of the current market situation and more efficient trading. Current trend Yesterday, USD rose slightly against CHF. In the morning, the position of the instrument was supported by poor macroeconomic statistics from Europe. With the opening of the American session and the publication of ambiguous statistics from the US, “bullish” activity has noticeably decreased, and investors have increasingly begun to close the profitable positions. In February, EU Markit composite index of business activity in the manufacturing sector rose from 51.0 to 51.4 points, which turned out to be better than analysts' expectations of 51.1 points. At the same time, the usual index for the same period decreased from 50.5 to 49.2 points while the forecast was 50.3 points. Germany made a significant contribution to the weakening of the activity index in the manufacturing sector. February German index fell from 49.7 to 47.6 points, recalling the problems in the country's economy. Support and resistance On the daily chart, Bollinger bands are reversing horizontally. The price range tries to consolidate within fairly spacious (given the low activity on the instrument) boundaries. The MACD indicator is falling, keeping a poor sell signal (the histogram is below the signal line). Stochastic, reaching 20, is trying to reverse into the ascending plane. The current indicator readings reflect the risks of oversold US currency in the short and/or ultra-short term. The development of correctional growth is possible. Resistance levels: 1.0022, 1.0050, 1.0073, 1.0097. Support levels: 1.0000, 0.9980, 0.9962, 0.9933. Trading tips Long positions can be opened after the breakout of the levels of 1.0022–1.0030 with the target at 1.0073. Stop loss is 1.0010–1.0000. Short positions can be opened after the breakdown of the level of 1.0000 with the target at 0.9962. Stop loss is 1.0015. Implementation period: 2–3 days.

Antony_NPBFX Posted February 25, 2019 Author Share Posted February 25, 2019 XAG/USD: silver prices are rising 25.02.2019 Good afternoon, dear forum visitors! NPBFX offers the latest release of analytics on XAG/USD for a better understanding of the current market situation and more efficient trading. Current trend On Friday, silver prices rose markedly, balancing a sharp Thursday’s decline partially. During the Asian session on February 25, the instrument grows, moderately supported by low investors’ interest in risk. Traders wait for the resolution of the US-China trade conflict in order to concentrate on other market drivers. Additional support for the course provides uncertainty in Europe. In addition to the process of Brexit, investors are concerned about another round of political crisis in Italy and a significant slowdown in the German economy. On the other hand, the instrument is under pressure from recent Fed’s comments, which has slightly changed its position on further interest rate growth. The regulator still refers to an unstable external economic background but at the same time, some board members are in favor of tightening policies in the second half of 2019. Support and resistance On the daily chart, Bollinger bands moderately grow. The price range expands from above, letting the “bulls” renew local highs. MACD increases, keeping a poor buy signal (the histogram is above the signal line). Stochastic falls and does not react to growth. It is better to wait until the situation is clear and to keep part of current long positions in the short and/or super short term for some time. Resistance levels: 15.96, 16.05, 16.18, 16.28. Support levels: 15.84, 15.74, 15.66, 15.58, 15.46, 15.40, 15.21, 15.09, 15.00. Trading tips Long positions can be opened after the breakout of 15.96 with the target at 16.18 or 16.28. Stop loss – 15.84. Implementation period: 1–2 days. Short positions can be opened after the rebound from 15.96 and the breakdown of 15.84 with the targets at 15.58 or 15.50–15.46. Stop loss – 15.96.

Antony_NPBFX Posted February 27, 2019 Author Share Posted February 27, 2019 AUD/USD: Australian Dollar strengthens 27.02.2019 Good afternoon, dear forum visitors! NPBFX offers the latest release of analytics on AUD/USD for a better understanding of the current market situation and more efficient trading. Current trend Today, during the Asian session, AUD is slightly rising, trading around weekly highs with moderate support from poor US dollar positions. In addition, investors expect a positive resolution of the trade conflict between the United States and China. Meanwhile, the macroeconomic background of Australia remains ambiguous. Wednesday’s 2018 Q4 Construction Work Done release declined by 3.1% QoQ after a decline by 2.8% QoQ in the previous period. Investors were counting on a positive trend of +0.4% QoQ. Support and resistance On the daily chart, Bollinger bands are slightly increasing. The price range widens from above but not as fast as the “bullish” dynamics is developing. MACD indicator rises, keeping a relatively strong buy signal (the histogram is above the signal line), and is trying to consolidate above the zero line. Stochastic is growing steadily since the end of the last trading week and is approaching its highs again, which indicates that AUD can become overbought in the super-short term. The current readings of technical indicators do not contradict the further development of the “bullish” trend in the short and/or ultra-short term. Resistance levels: 0.7200, 0.7234, 0.7263, 0.7300. Support levels: 0.7173, 0.7159, 0.7142, 0.7116. Trading tips Long positions can be opened after the breakout of the level of 0.7200 with the target at 0.7263. Stop loss is 0.7173.

Antony_NPBFX Posted March 1, 2019 Author Share Posted March 1, 2019 USD/CAD: the pair is trading ambiguously 01.03.2019 Good afternoon, dear forum visitors! NPBFX offers the latest release of analytics on USD/CAD for a better understanding of the current market situation and more efficient trading. Current trend Yesterday, USD rose against CAD but failed to consolidate at the occupied positions and lost almost all the advantage by the time of the closing of the daily session. American macroeconomic statistics, published on Thursday, did not significantly support USD. According to preliminary estimates, the 2018 Q4 GDP rose by 2.6% YoY after rising by 3.4% YoY in the third quarter. Despite a significant slowdown in economic growth, the published figure was still much better than the forecasts, suggested a rise of +2.3% YoY. However, Canadian data was not better, reflecting the growth of the 2018 Q4 payments deficit balance from 10.11 billion to 15.4 billion CAD. Today, investors are focused on US statistics on personal incomes and expenditures in December, as well as the February data block on business activity. In Canada, the 2018 Q4 annual GDP data and Manufacturing PMI will be released. Support and resistance On the daily chart, Bollinger bands moderately reduced. The price range narrows, reflecting the ambiguous trading nature in the short term. MACD grows, keeping a poor buy signal (the histogram is above the signal line). Stochastic reversed horizontally after a short growth at the beginning of the week. The current indicators’ readings remain controversial. It is better to wait until the situation is clear. Resistance levels: 1.3200, 1.3241, 1.3284, 1.3327. Support levels: 1.3149, 1.3100, 1.3067, 1.3000. Trading tips Long positions can be opened after the breakout of 1.3200 with the target at 1.3284.

Antony_NPBFX Posted March 4, 2019 Author Share Posted March 4, 2019 Brent Crude Oil: oil prices are dropping 04.03.2019 Good afternoon, dear forum visitors! NPBFX offers the latest release of analytics on Brent Crude Oil for a better understanding of the current market situation and more efficient trading. Current trend Oil prices dropped markedly on March 1, retreating to local minima of February 26. The decline was due to continued growth in US production, as well as increased risks of global economic growth, which directly affects demand. OPEC’s efforts to reduce production, and new US sanctions against Venezuela, which is also a member of OPEC, are hindering a more confident decline in prices. Additional support on Friday was provided by the Baker Hughes report, which again indicated a reduction in active drilling rigs from 853 to 843 units per week. Support and resistance Bollinger Bands in D1 chart demonstrate flat dynamics. The price range is narrowing, reflecting the ambiguous dynamics of trading in the short term. MACD is going down preserving a stable sell signal (being located under the signal line). Stochastic resumed its decline after a short-term growth in the middle of last week. The showings of the indicators do not contradict the further development of correctional decline in the short and/or ultra-short term. Resistance levels: 65.50, 66.06, 67.00, 67.70. Support levels: 65.00, 64.28, 63.69, 63.08. Trading tips To open long positions, one can rely on the breakout of 65.50. Take profit — 67.00 or 67.70. Stop loss – 64.90-64.80. The return of "bearish" dynamics with the breakdown of 64.28 may become a signal to start sales with the target at 63.08 or 62.40. Stop loss – 65.00. Implementation period: 2-3 days.
