Antony_NPBFX Posted January 27, 2021 Author Share Posted January 27, 2021 USD/CHF: USD remains under pressure 27.01.2021 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 USD is showing flat trading dynamics against CHF during today's Asian session, consolidating near 0.8860. American investors are awaiting the publication of the final minutes of the two-day Fed meeting today, but for now they are taking a lead from the usual signals. After Joe Biden's statements about a possible adjustment of his stimulus plan for the American economy, markets fear that some of the measures will not be implemented in the near future. In addition to the Fed meeting, traders are focused on statistics from the United States on the dynamics of orders for durable goods in December. Analysts expect that the indicator will remain at about the same level as before, so it will not have a noticeable impact on the dynamics of USD. Switzerland will publish ZEW Survey Expectations for January today. The forecasts are rather disappointing: the indicator is expected to fall from 46.8 to 37.9 points. Support and resistance In the D1 chart, Bollinger Bands are reversing horizontally. The price range is narrowing, reflecting appearance of multi-directional dynamics in the short term. MACD histogram is slightly strengthening keeping a weak buy signal (located slightly above the signal line). Stochastic is showing slightly more confident dynamics, signaling "bullish" potential in the ultra-short term. One should wait for development of the situation at the market, as the current indicators remain uninformative. Resistance levels: 0.8880, 0.8900, 0.8924, 0.8960. Support levels: 0.8850, 0.8837, 0.8821, 0.8800. Trading tips To open new short positions, one can rely on the breakdown of 0.8850. Take-profit – 0.8821–0.8810. Stop-loss – 0.8870. Implementation time: 2-3 days. The return of the "bullish" trend to the market with the breakout of 0.8880 may become a signal for new purchases with the target of 0.8924. Stop-loss – 0.8860.

Thursday’s macroeconomic statistics from the US put pressure on the positions of the American currency. Q4 2020 GDP fell sharply from 33.4% to 4.0% YoY, which was the economy's response to the continued quarantine restrictions and the slowdown in global trade flows. However, the instrument remained positive. On Friday, traders are waiting for the publication of US data on the dynamics of personal income and expenses for December. Also, investors will pay attention to the consumer confidence index and the dynamics of pending home sales. Canada will release November GDP statistics and December data on commodity and industrial product price indices today. Support and resistance On the daily chart, Bollinger Bands are rising moderately. The price range is actively expanding but not as fast as the “bullish” dynamics develop. The MACD indicator is growing, maintaining a strong buy signal (the histogram is above the signal line), and is trying to consolidate above the zero level. Stochastic maintains a strong upward trend but is approaching its highs, signaling that the dollar is overbought in the ultra-short term. Resistance levels: 1.2900, 1.2950, 1.3000. Support levels: 1.2850, 1.2800, 1.2738, 1.2700. Trading tips Long positions may be opened after the breakout of 1.2900 with the target at 1.3000. Stop loss – 1.2850. Implementation period: 1–2 days.

Antony_NPBFX Posted February 1, 2021 Author Share Posted February 1, 2021 USD/JPY: correction from local highs 01.02.2021 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 USD is correcting against JPY during today's morning session, retreating from local highs since November 16, which the instrument managed to update at the end of the last trading week. The reason for the strengthening of "bullish" sentiment was technical factors, while the fundamental background in the market changed little. Moreover, JPY gained support on Friday after the publication of relatively confident macroeconomic statistics on the Japanese labor market, which showed greater resilience than experts expected. In turn, data from the US also turned out to be better than market forecasts. Personal Income in December 2020 increased by 0.6% MoM after declining by 1.7% MoM in the previous month. Experts expected an increase of 0.1% MoM. The rate of decline in Personal Spending in December slowed down from –0.7% MoM to –0.2% MoM, which turned out to be two times better than the forecasts. The Chicago PMI in January rose sharply from 58.7 to 63.8 points against the forecast of a decline to 58.5 points. Support and resistance Bollinger Bands in D1 chart show moderate growth. The price range is expanding but it fails to conform to the development of "bullish" sentiments at the moment. MACD indicator is growing preserving a stable buy signal (located above the signal line). Stochastic, having reached the level of 80, reversed into horizontal plane, indicating overbought USD in the ultra-short term. Resistance levels: 104.75, 105.00, 105.33, 105.60. Support levels: 104.50, 104.20, 103.90, 103.60. Trading tips To open new short positions, one can rely on the breakdown of 104.50. Take-profit – 103.90. Stop-loss – 104.75. Implementation time: 1-2 days. The return of the "bullish" trend with the breakout of 105.00 may become a signal for new purchases with the target of 105.60. Stop-loss – 104.75.

Antony_NPBFX Posted February 3, 2021 Author Share Posted February 3, 2021 XAU/USD: ambiguous dynamics 03.02.2021 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 are showing moderate gains during today's Asian session, correcting after a strong decline the day before, which was triggered by some progress in negotiations on a new stimulus package for the US economy. In addition, USD was supported by a decrease in demand for safe assets in response to an improvement in the dynamics of the incidence of coronavirus in the world. Today, investors will be focused on macroeconomic statistics from the US on the levels of business activity from Markit and ISM in January. In addition, much attention will be paid to the publication of the January ADP Employment Change report, which will precede Friday's data on the US labor market. Forecasts suggest that the ADP report will reflect an increase in private sector employment of 45K new jobs after a decline of 123K in the previous month. Support and resistance Bollinger Bands in D1 chart demonstrate flat dynamics. The price range is changing slightly, but remains rather spacious for the current level of activity in the market. MACD is declining keeping a weak sell signal (located below the signal line). Stochastic shows similar dynamics, resuming its decline after a brief period of growth. At the same time, the indicator is located near its lows, reflecting the risks of oversold instrument in the ultra-short term. To open new positions, it is necessary to wait for the trade signals to become clear. Resistance levels: 1850.00, 1863.34, 1875.09, 1900.00. Support levels: 1830.00, 1811.96, 1800.00. Trading tips To open long positions, one can rely on the breakout of 1850.00. Take profit — 1875.09–1880.00. Stop-loss – 1835.00. Implementation time: 1-2 days.

Antony_NPBFX Posted February 5, 2021 Author Share Posted February 5, 2021 EUR/USD: updating local lows 05.02.2021 Good afternoon, dear forum visitors! 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 EUR is showing ambiguous trend during today's Asian session, consolidating near 1.1950 and new local lows since December 1. EUR dropped significantly against USD at the end of trading on Thursday, responding to the strengthening of USD across almost the entire spectrum of the market. USD, in turn, was supported by strong macroeconomic statistics, as well as increased prospects for a faster recovery of the American economy from the crisis. Only the data on retail sales dynamics in the eurozone provided insignificant support to EUR yesterday. In December, sales volumes increased by 2% MoM after a sharp decline of 5.7% MoM in the previous month. Analysts had expected increase by 1.6% MoM only. On an annualized basis, sales rose by 0.6% YoY, accelerating after a 2.2% YoY decline in the previous month. The market forecasts expected the indicator to grow half as much. Support and resistance Bollinger Bands in D1 chart demonstrate a moderate decrease. The price range is expanding; however, it fails to catch the surge of the "bearish" sentiment at the moment. MACD is going down preserving a stable sell signal (located below the signal line). Stochastic keeps a confident downtrend but is located near its lows, which indicates the risks of oversold EUR in the ultra-short term. Existing short positions should be kept in the short and/or ultra-short term until the signals from technical indicators clear up. Resistance levels: 1.2000, 1.2052, 1.2087, 1.2120. Support levels: 1.1930, 1.1892, 1.1850, 1.1800. Trading tips To open new short positions, one can rely on the breakdown of 1.1930. Take-profit – 1.1850. Stop-loss – 1.1980. Implementation time: 1-2 days. A rebound from 1.1930 as from support followed by a breakout of 1.2000 may become a signal for new purchases with the targets at 1.2087–1.2120. Stop-loss – 1.1940.

Antony_NPBFX Posted February 8, 2021 Author Share Posted February 8, 2021 USD/JPY: USD returned to active growth 08.02.2021 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 USD is significantly strengthening against JPY during today's trading in Asia, recovering from an equally active decline at the end of last week, when USD retreated from its local highs since October 12, 2020. The instrument adds about 0.24% and is actively testing the level of 105.50 for a breakout. The strong report on the US labor market released last Friday did not help USD to end a confident eight-day rally against JPY with growth, but influenced the balance of power in the short term. Monday's statistics from Japan are poor. Eco Watchers Survey on Current Situation in January fell from 35.5 to 31.2 points, which, however, turned out to be better than the forecasts of a decrease to 25 points. Eco Watchers Survey Outlook for the same period increased from 37.1 to 39.9 points, but failed to reach the expected values of 44.2 points. Support and resistance Bollinger Bands in D1 chart show stable growth. The price range is actively expanding, while remaining too spacious for the current activity level in the market. MACD indicator is growing preserving a stable buy signal (located above the signal line). Stochastic, having reached its highs, showed a decline, responding to the correctional fall of USD at the end of the last trading week. Resistance levels: 105.60, 105.79, 106.00. Support levels: 105.33, 105.16, 105.00, 104.75. Trading tips To open new long positions, one can rely on the breakout of 105.60. Take-profit – 106.00–106.20. Stop-loss – 105.33. Implementation time: 1-2 days. The development of correctional trend with the breakdown of 105.16 may become a signal for new sales with target at 104.50. Stop-loss – 105.50.

Antony_NPBFX Posted February 10, 2021 Author Share Posted February 10, 2021 USD/JPY: dollar remains under pressure 10.02.2021 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, the USD/JPY pair is slightly strengthening, weakly compensating for the confident decline yesterday, caused by the negative sentiment of traders against the dollar. American macroeconomic statistics are increasingly worse than experts' expectations. It shows that the US economy will take more time to recover than it was estimated earlier. It's worth noting that the US presidential administration has yet implemented its new $1.9 trillion stimulus program. Despite criticism of the new measures and opposition from the Republican Party, the aid package could give the US economy a strong upward momentum. The data from Japan released on Wednesday did not have a noticeable impact on the instrument's dynamics. Thus, the producer price index of goods for January slowed down from +0.5% to +0.4% MoM, which coincided with market expectations. January index of domestic prices for corporate goods increased slightly from –2% to –1.6% YoY. Support and resistance Bollinger bands are actively growing on the daily chart. The price range is rapidly narrowing in response to a sharp change in trading direction in the short term. The MACD indicator reversed downwards and formed a new strong sell signal (the histogram is below the signal line). Stochastic shows a similar picture but is rapidly approaching its lows, indicating that USD may become oversold in the ultra-short term. Resistance levels: 104.75, 105.00, 105.16, 105.33. Support levels: 104.50, 104.20, 103.90, 103.60. Trading tips Long positions may be opened after the rebound from 104.50 and the breakout of 104.75 with the target at 105.16. Stop loss – 104.50. Implementation period: 2–3 days. Short positions may be opened after the breakdown of 104.50 with the target at 103.90. Stop loss – 104.85.

Antony_NPBFX Posted February 12, 2021 Author Share Posted February 12, 2021 GBP/USD: correction at the end of the week 12.02.2021 Good afternoon, dear forum visitors! NPBFX offers the latest release of analytics on GBP/USD for a better understanding of the current market situation and more efficient trading. Current trend GBP declines against USD during today's Asian session, retreating from record highs updated in the middle of this week. The decrease in the instrument is due to the restoration of the positions of USD, which previously reacted negatively to the speech of the Fed Chair, Jerome Powell, who spoke in favor of maintaining a flexible monetary policy, but pointed out the damage that the pandemic has brought to the American labor market. According to the chairman of the regulator, the restoration of the labor market may take years, while additional measures of support and stimulation may be required. Today, British investors are awaiting the publication of macroeconomic statistics from the UK. The focus will be on statistics on GDP dynamics for Q4 2020. The forecasts assume that the British economy will slow down from +16% QoQ to +0.5% QoQ. Support and resistance Bollinger Bands in D1 chart show moderate growth. The price range expands slightly from above, freeing a path to new local highs for the "bulls". MACD has reversed downwards preserving a buy signal (located above the signal line). Stochastic demonstrates similar dynamics, reversing downwards at its highs. The appearance of a full-fledged downtrend is possible in the short and/or ultra-short term. Resistance levels: 1.3864, 1.3900, 1.3963, 1.4000. Support levels: 1.3760, 1.3700, 1.3650, 1.3600. Trading tips To open new short positions, one can rely on the breakdown of 1.3760. Take-profit – 1.3650. Stop-loss – 1.3820. Implementation time: 2-3 days.

Antony_NPBFX Posted February 15, 2021 Author Share Posted February 15, 2021 USD/JPY: USD is strengthening 15.02.2021 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 USD has shown strong gains against JPY during today's Asian session, once again trying to consolidate above 105.00. The focus is on macroeconomic statistics from Japan, which was encouraging for Japanese investors, but still did not lead to a change in the trading direction in the short term. Annual data on Japan's GDP reflected the country's economic growth in Q4 2020 by 12.7% YoY after increasing by 22.7% YoY in the previous period. Experts expected a slowdown in GDP to +9.5% YoY. In quarterly terms, the economy slowed down from +5.3% QoQ to +3% QoQ, which was also better than market expectations at +2.3% QoQ. Industrial production dynamics slightly improved from –3.2% YoY to –2.6% YoY, with market neutral forecasts. Support and resistance Bollinger Bands in D1 chart show stable growth. The price range is narrowing, reflecting the ambiguous nature of trading in the short/middle term. MACD indicator reverses to growth while forming a new buy signal (the histogram is about to consolidate above the signal line). Stochastic is actively recovering from its lows, indicating the prospects for the development of corrective growth of the instrument in the ultra-short term. Current showings of the indicators do not contradict the development of the uptrend in the short term. Resistance levels: 105.17, 105.33, 105.60, 105.79.

Antony_NPBFX Posted February 17, 2021 Author Share Posted February 17, 2021 GBP/USD: GBP is consolidating 17.02.2021 Good afternoon, dear forum visitors! NPBFX offers the latest release of analytics on GBP/USD for a better understanding of the current market situation and more efficient trading. Current trend GBP declines slightly against USD this morning session, trading below the psychological level of 1.3900. The day before, the instrument failed to consolidate at new record highs, and by the end of the afternoon session, it retreated to the opening levels. The reason for the decline was the correctional sentiment in favor of USD, while the fundamental picture is changing slightly. GBP is feeling strong support from the conclusion of a trade agreement between the UK and the EU, and is also growing with an eye on the imminent lifting of quarantine restrictions by the British authorities in March. Today, British investors expect the publication of January statistics on consumer inflation and producer price index. It is projected that consumer inflation in the country will show further deceleration, which will put pressure on GBP. Support and resistance Bollinger Bands in D1 chart show active growth. The price range expands from above, freeing a path to new local highs for the "bulls". MACD indicator tries to reverse downwards and to form a new sell signal (the histogram has to consolidate below the signal line). Stochastic is showing similar dynamics, retreating from its highs, indicating strongly overbought GBP in the ultra-short term. The appearance of a full-fledged downtrend is possible in the short and/or ultra-short term. Resistance levels: 1.3900, 1.3950, 1.4000, 1.4068. Support levels: 1.3861, 1.3800, 1.3760, 1.3700.

Antony_NPBFX Posted February 19, 2021 Author Share Posted February 19, 2021 EUR/USD: ambiguous trading 19.02.2021 Good afternoon, dear forum visitors! 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 EUR is showing ambiguous trading during today's Asian session, consolidating near 1.2100 after the instrument retraced the day before. The reason for yesterday's resumption of "bullish" trend was the disappointing data from the US. Initial Jobless Claims for the week ending February 12 again showed an increase from 848K to 861K, while analysts expected their reduction to 765K. Continuing Jobless Claims for the week ending February 5 fell from 4.558M to 4.494M, which fell short of the most optimistic forecasts of 4.413M. Thus, investors are again convinced that it is still somewhat premature to talk about the beginning of a confident recovery of the American economy. As Jerome Powell said, it will take years for the labor market to return to its previous levels. The focus of European investors today is statistics on business activity in the manufacturing and services sectors in Germany and the eurozone for February. Support and resistance Bollinger Bands in D1 chart demonstrate flat dynamics. The price range is changing slightly, but remains rather spacious for the current level of activity in the market. MACD has reversed towards growth without forming a buy signal (located below the signal line). Stochastic shows similar dynamics, reversing upwards near the level of "20". Current readings of the indicator signal in favor of a corrective growth in the ultra-short term. Resistance levels: 1.2100, 1.2150, 1.2200. Support levels: 1.2052, 1.2022, 1.2000, 1.1951. Trading tips To open long positions, one can rely on a confident breakout of 1.2100. Take-profit – 1.2150. Stop-loss – 1.2070. Implementation time: 1-2 days.

Antony_NPBFX Posted February 22, 2021 Author Share Posted February 22, 2021 XAU/USD: gold retreats from record lows 22.02.2021 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 are showing a slight increase during today's trading, developing a corrective impetus that formed at the end of last week. Last Friday, the instrument renewed record lows since early July 2020, but was able to recover due to corrective sentiment in the market and weak positions in USD, which remained under pressure from weak data on the US labor market. In turn, the general excitement in the market is putting strong pressure on the position of "safe" gold. High yield on US Treasury bonds provokes further growth in demand for risky assets. The improvement of the epidemiological situation in the USA and in the world also helps. Countries are gradually lifting the quarantine restrictions as vaccination campaigns spread and accelerate. Support and resistance Bollinger Bands in D1 chart demonstrate a weak downtrend. The price range is changing slightly, but remains rather spacious for the current level of activity in the market. MACD has reversed upwards preserving a sell signal (located below the signal line). Stochastic is acting more aggressively and, having demonstrated a rebound from the lows, is currently signaling in favor of the development of uptrend in the nearest future. A full-fledged correctional growth is possible in the short and/or ultra-short term. Resistance levels: 1800.00, 1810.29, 1830.00, 1850.00. Support levels: 1769.59, 1753.57, 1735.13, 1720.00. Trading tips To open long positions, one can rely on the breakout of 1800.00. Take-profit – 1830.00. Stop-loss – 1785.00. Implementation time: 1-2 days. The return of "bearish" trend with the breakdown of 1769.59 may become a signal for new sales with the target at 1735.13. Stop-loss – 1785.00.

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 EUR is trading in both directions against USD during today's Asian session. At the opening of trading, the pair was steadily declining; however, EUR managed to win back half of its losses, receiving support from vulnerable positions in USD. The pressure on USD intensified yesterday after the US Fed Chair Jerome Powell reiterated the regulator's adherence to a soft monetary policy, noting that there are no talks about its correction towards tightening in the near future at all. In turn, USD was supported on Thursday by strong data from the US on the dynamics of jobless claims, which turned out to be much better than projected. Today, investors are focused on statistics from the USA on the dynamics of personal income and spending in January. In addition, after the opening of the American session, the market will receive data on the PMI in Chicago and the level of consumer sentiment from the University of Michigan for February. Support and resistance In the D1 chart, Bollinger Bands are reversing horizontally. The price range is slightly expanding from above, remaining spacious enough for the current activity level in the market.

The instrument was additionally supported by good macroeconomic statistics from the USA, which was quite close to its forecasts. Today, JPY is in demand after the publication of data from Japan. Jibun Bank Manufacturing PMI in February rose from 50.6 to 51.4 points, which turned out to be better than market forecasts.

Antony_NPBFX Posted March 3, 2021 Author Share Posted March 3, 2021 NZD/USD: ambiguous trading dynamics 3.03.2021 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 is showing ambiguous trading dynamics against USD, hovering around 0.7300. The market is again seeing a rise in demand for safe assets as bond market yields rise, which have been the subject of the fiercest discussions recently. In particular, the ECB noted yesterday that the recent surge in securities yields was largely unfounded, and the regulator will try to adjust its quantitative easing program. Earlier, the RBA announced similar plans. In turn, the published macroeconomic statistics are increasingly ambiguous. Building Permits in New Zealand in January slowed down from +5.1% MoM to +2.1% MoM, which turned out to be worse than average expectations. ANZ Commodity Price in February corrected from +3.6% MoM to +3.3% MoM. Statistics from China were also disappointing. In February, the Caixin Services PMI slowed from 52 to 51.5 points. Support and resistance Bollinger Bands in D1 chart show unsteady growth. The price range is narrowing from below, reflecting the emergence of ambiguous dynamics of trading in the short term. MACD is declining keeping a weak sell signal (located below the signal line). Stochastic, having reached the level of "20", reversed into an upward plane, indicating the prospects for the development of corrective growth in the nearest future. Resistance levels: 0.7305, 0.7350, 0.7393, 0.7435. Support levels: 0.7250, 0.7222, 0.7200, 0.7150. Trading tips To open long positions, one can rely on the breakout of 0.7305. Take-profit – 0.7393. Stop-loss – 0.7250. Implementation time: 2-3 days. A rebound from 0.7305 as from resistance, followed by a breakdown of 0.7250 may become a signal for new sales with the target at 0.7150.

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 USD is marginally higher against CHF during today's Asian session, consolidating near record highs since July 2020, updated the day before. Investors continue to show high interest in "safe" assets, responding to the controversial situation in the bond market and fearing the introduction of new measures from leading financial regulators. In particular, the attention of market participants on Thursday was focused on the speech of the US Fed Chair, Jerome Powell. The Chairman of the American regulator made a very optimistic speech, practically without touching upon the urgent topic of growth in the yield of US Treasury bonds. The official noted that the early opening of the economies will lead to a noticeable increase in inflation, which serves as one of the main guidelines for maintaining minimum interest rates. Immediately after Powell's speech, bond yields rallied again, pushing the major Wall Street indices down. Support and resistance Bollinger Bands in D1 chart show stable growth. The price range is expanding but it fails to catch the development of "bullish" trend at the moment. MACD indicator is growing preserving a stable buy signal (located above the signal line).

A rebound from 0.9300 as from resistance followed by a breakdown of 0.9250 may become a signal for new sales with the targets at 0.9126–0.9100. Stop-loss – 0.9320.

Antony_NPBFX Posted March 8, 2021 Author Share Posted March 8, 2021 AUD/USD: consolidation at 0.7700 08.03.2021 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 shows ambiguous dynamics of trading against USD during today's Asian session, consolidating at 0.7700. The instrument is again under pressure after last Friday's publication of strong data on US employment, which turned out to be significantly better than expectations. In addition, investors were enthusiastic about the success of the US Senate vote on new measures to support the US economy. President Joe Biden's bill was approved in the Senate by a margin of only one vote, but before that senators had made many amendments to the law. Now the American Rescue Plan has to return to the House of Representatives of the US Congress, after which it will be able to get signed by Joe Biden. Some support for AUD at the beginning of the new week is provided by good macroeconomic indicators from China. In particular, exports from China in February grew by a record 60.6% YoY, which was more than 1.5 times better than expectations. Support and resistance Bollinger Bands in D1 chart demonstrate flat dynamics. The price range is slightly expanding, remaining spacious enough for the current activity level in the market. MACD is going down preserving a stable sell signal (located below the signal line). The indicator is trying to consolidate below the zero level. Stochastic, having approached the level of "20", reversed into a horizontal plane, indicating that the instrument is oversold in the nearest future. Resistance levels: 0.7721, 0.7750, 0.7780, 0.7804.

Antony_NPBFX Posted March 10, 2021 Author Share Posted March 10, 2021 USD/CHF: USD wins back its losses 10.03.2021 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 USD is recovering against CHF during today's Asian session, recouping losses on Tuesday, when USD showed a decline across almost the entire spectrum of the market, responding to the correction in US bond yields. Macroeconomic statistics from Europe published yesterday did not have a noticeable impact on the instrument's dynamics. Eurozone GDP in Q4 2020 decreased by 0.7% QoQ after declining by 0.6% QoQ according to previous results. In annual terms, the rate of decline in the region's economy was revised from –5% YoY to –4.9% YoY. Today, investors are focused on statistics from the US on the dynamics of consumer prices in February. Analysts do not expect a significant increase in inflation, but the indicators are extremely important, since they are used by the US Fed to determine the vector of monetary policy. Support and resistance Bollinger Bands in D1 chart show stable growth. The price range is slightly narrowed from below, being spacious enough for the current activity level in the market. MACD is reversing downwards forming a new sell signal (trying to consolidate below the signal line). Stochastic is showing similar dynamics, retreating from its highs, indicating the overbought USD in the ultra-short term. Current showings of the indicators do not contradict the further development of the correctional decline in the short term. Resistance levels: 0.9300, 0.9350, 0.9400, 0.9450. Support levels: 0.9250, 0.9200, 0.9163, 0.9126. Trading tips To open new short positions, one can rely on the breakdown of 0.9250. Take-profit – 0.9163. Stop-loss – 0.9300. Implementation time: 1-2 days. The return of the "bullish" trend to the market with the breakout of 0.9350 may become a signal for new purchases with the target of 0.9450. Stop-loss – 0.9300.

NPBFX offers the latest release of analytics on GBP/USD for a better understanding of the current market situation and more efficient trading. Current trend GBP is slightly declining against USD during today's morning session, having managed to update local highs since March 4 and touch the level of 1.4000. The pair is under pressure from strong statistics on the dynamics of jobless claims, published in the US the day before.

The number of continuing jobless claims fell from 4.337M to 4.144M, also beating forecasts of 4.22M. Investors are reluctant to open new positions on the instrument, preferring to wait for the release of macroeconomic data from the UK on industrial production and GDP dynamics for January. Support and resistance In the D1 chart, Bollinger Bands are reversing horizontally. The price range is gradually narrowing from above, reflecting the emergence of ambiguous dynamics in the short/ultra-short term. MACD has reversed to growth having formed quite a strong buy signal (located above the signal line).
