EUR/GBP: BULLS RETREAT, BUT DONโ€™T GIVE UP
07:42 02.02.2018

Recommendation:

SELL 0.8875

SL 0.893

TP1 0.8775 TP2 0.8715 TP3 0.869

On the daily chart of EUR/GBP, bears failed with their attack on the support of the lower border of the medium-term consolidation range of 0.8690-0.9015. Sellers retain hopes for a break and formation of the AB=CD pattern.

On H1, a break above resistance levels at 0.8780 and 0.8810 will increase the risks of triggering Gartley pattern with a target at 78.6% of the wave XA. From this area (0.8870-0.8880), there is a high possibility of aggressive selling by large players.

The main trend is still bullish. It's likely that the market is going to reach the next resistance at 1.2537 - 1.2569 in the short term. If a pullback from this area happens little later on, there'll be a moment to have a decline towards the nearest support at 1.2456 - 1.2384.

1517567469-efde1e25089051387039844a6bf0d

The pair is consolidating between the levels 1.2537 - 1.2493. The main intraday target is the 34 Moving Average, which could be a departure point for another upward price movement in the direction of the next resistance at 1.2537 - 1.2569.

1517567469-b1c84980e59c11d301e9df88d8b7b

The price is still rising above the Moving Averages. The main intraday target is the next resistance at 1.4344. If a pullback from this level happens afterwards, bears will probably try to test the closest support at 1.4206 - 1.4129.

1517567469-74fbd5500f91482d5c038a23d6d5e

Bulls faced with resistance at 1.4284, so the market is going to test the 89 Moving Average. This line could be a departure point for an upward price movement towards the next resistance at 1.4327 - 1.4344.

ANY CHANCES TO FORECAST NFP?
11:15 02.02.2018

Today the US Bureau of Labor Statistics will release the Nonfarm Payrolls at 15:30 MT time. Nonfarm Payrolls count the change in the number of employed during the previous month. The data is important because it displays consumer spending and economic health. The advantage of the indicator is that it is delivered shortly after the month ends. It is announced together with two other indicators such as Average hourly earnings and Unemployment rate.

Nowadays, we can notice that the indicator is not as important as it was before. During the financial crisis, numbers of it were highly taken into consideration because of its main function as a measure of the economic health. However, now the economy is quite firm, it does not require additional supportive indicators. But still, the data support interest rates hikes. This year the Fed is expected to increase interest rates three times. So a market follows changes in the labor market. A tighter market causes wages rise. Wages increase will boost the interest rates.

Although it is almost impossible to forecast Nonfarm Payrolls data, analysts do not give up.

This time, analysts are divided into two camps.

For example, analysts of Nomura and Goldman Sachs predict 205K rise.

On the other hand, Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation makes its prediction based on the temperature. It claimed that the drop in average temperatures across the country may cause the fall of job creation for the month. So its expectations are at the level of 170K. The Australian Bank Westpac agrees with HSBC, maybe the reason for the number is different, but the number is the same. Toronto-Dominion Securities is not far from them, it is looking for 175K.

Making a conclusion, we can say that despite the fact that the Nonfarm Payrolls data is not used as much as it was during the financial crisis, it is still a crucial indicator, for the Fed policy especially. Its volatility is still incredible, that creates difficulties for forecasts. October data of -33K was followed by 261K in November, the data delivered in December was quite similar to previous one, but the next one was in 80K less. However, the data is still taken into consideration and always supported by two other indicators that smooth its volatility.

1517576777-49aba98b37cca53a58a9cffbb5a0c

The market has been rising since a "Tweezers" model formed on the 34 Moving Average. There's no any reversal pattern so far, which means the market is likely going to test the nearest resistance area in the short term.

1517576777-1d3e3793f84aa65d90c0cf4f12074

There's a bullish "Hammer", which has been formed at the last local low. So, the price is likely going to continue moving up in the coming hours.

1517576777-c036a9fbc33bfa9178ec953f5edd6

The price has reached the upper "Window", but there's still no any reversal pattern. So, the pair is likely going to test the 55 Moving Average, which could be a departure point for a downward correction.

1517576777-e1196b6c376a37b6e137c556748bb

We've got a bullish "Three Methods" pattern, which has been confirmed. In this case, the pair is likely going to achieve the upper "Window" in the coming hours.

NZD/USD Daily Analytics
07:45 05.02.2018
Recommendations:

SELL 0.7280 SL 0.7335 TP1 0.717 TP2 0.708

SELL 0.7330 SL 0.7385 TP1 0.723 TP2 0.717 TP3 0.708

On the daily chart NZD/USD, bullsโ€™ inability to storm 88.6% resistance from a 4-5 wave meant their weakness. An exit of quotations out of an upward trading channel will strengthen risks of development of correction in the direction of 0.7170 and 0.7080.

1517816626-fb9be1d9d65d6402746f6573306cf

On the hour chart NZD/USD, pattern โ€œBroadening wedgeโ€ is actual. A successful storm of support at 0.7280 or pullbacks with subsequent rebounds from resistances at 0.7310, 0.7330 and 0.7350 will create opportunities to form shorts.

Recommendations:

BUY 0.7975

SL 0.7920

TP1 0.8075 TP2 0.8125 TP3 0.8215

On the daily chart AUD/USD, an exit of the pair out of an upward trading channel and a break of support at 88.6% and 78.6% from the last wave showed a return of initiative to bears. They met an important area of 0.7885-0.7895 convergence, a continuation of a southern campaign is impossible without breaking below it. ย 

1517817030-1db64c049cc9775b27418fd0e6b08

On the hour chart, as the pair reached an intermediate target at 127.2% of the pattern โ€œCrabโ€, the odds of a pullback increased. An update of the February low will allow counting on a realization of 161.8% target.

COMMODITY MARKET: TWO DIFFERENT VIEWS
12:26 05.02.2018
Nowadays, commodities market is a highly discussed issue. The US dollar and prices of commodities are highly correlated. The weakening dollar always supports the rise of the commodity market and emerging market assets. That is why the significant fall of the dollar caused disputes between experts about the future of commodities.

The first group โ€œguidedโ€ by DoubleLine CEO Jeffrey Gundlach is looking for the rise of the commodity market, expecting a weaker dollar at the same time

J. Gundlach based his opinion on a comparison of total returns of the S&P Goldman Sachs Commodity Index with the S&P 500 over the last several decades. So he concluded that there are points where commodities outperformed stocks, it led to a sharp increase in stocks, and vice versa. Now the S&P GSCI Total Return Index-to-S&P 500 Index ratio is at its lowest point, so it means that we will see a super rise of commodities this year.

1517833335-a3483ce09df559bc80d13a824c6a6

Together with Jeffrey Gundlach, analysts at Goldman Sachs are calling for rising position for the next 12 months. Bank of America Merrill Lynch has raised the a-tonne copper price forecast from $7.140 to $7.700. Bloomberg Intelligence commodity strategists compare prospects of commodity market to the bull market of 2002-08. Hedge fund managers believe in strong oil and are building long positions.

These experts saw support of their decisions in rising prices of different commodities. For example, copper, palladium, platinum, and gold have grown in the last three months. The investment of assets reached the highest level in four years. Rising prices of crude oil helped analysts to form positive forecasts as well.

However, not all of the analysts are so positive about the perspectives of the commodity market.

Wells Fargo does not expect the continuation of the dollar fall, it considers the position of the dollar as neutral. The company denies the rise of the commodities prices, anticipating over-supply and range-bound prices at the commodity market for the next 10 years.

To sum up, we can say that it is quite difficult to forecast the future of the commodities prices because none of the experts could give enough number of supportive arguments for their positions. The price of the US dollar is volatile now, so we cannot be absolutely sure how it will affect the commodity market.

IMPORTANT WEEK FOR GBP, AUD AND NZD // FOREX OUTLOOK FOR FEB. 5-9
11:03 05.02.2018

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dL-FAvrFBZw

Last week the US dollar index managed to close at the positive territory for the first time since the start of December. USD rallied on Friday on upbeat US jobs data. American wages rose at the fastest pace since 2009. This fueled inflation expectations and made the market price in more rate hikes. As a result, this week the American currency has a chance to get a bit higher or at least to remain supported.

USD/JPY returned from 108.30 up to 110.00. If it manages to overcome resistance at 110.45, it may recover to 200-day MA at 111.70.

The advance of EUR/USD once again stopped at 1.2500. Support lies at 1.2350 and 1.2250. ย German political parties still didnโ€™t manage to form a coalition. Yet, the regionโ€™s economy is strong and there will be few events to disturb the euro. It might be a good idea to buy the euro in crosses like EUR/JPY, EUR/AUD, EUR/NZD and EUR/CAD.

GBP/USD was rejected down from 1.4280. Apart from the strong US figures, the pair was hurt by weak data from Britainโ€™s construction sector. At the same time, traders are afraid to act ahead of the Bank of Englandโ€™s meeting. Thereโ€™s a spinning top candle on the weekly chart โ€“ a sign of the marketโ€™s uncertainty. Governor Mark Carney sounded upbeat recently, and some analysts think that the BoE will raise interest rates in May. If the central bank confirms such expectations, GBP.USD will get to 1.4370/1.44. A disappointment will lead the pair down to 1.3975 and 1.3830.

Apart from the BoE meeting on Thursday, the economic calendar for this week contains the meeting of the Reserve Bank of Australian on Tuesday and the New Zealandโ€™s central bank on Wednesday.

As for NZD/USD, it strengthened since the last RBNZ meeting, although the economic data became worse. The pair looks vulnerable for a decline to 0.7240 and 0.7190.

WHAT IS THE CHANCE THAT THE RBA WILL CHANGE INTEREST RATES?
14:57 05.02.2018
On Tuesday, February 6 at 5:30 MT time, the Reserve Bank of Australia will announce interest rates for the first time this year after the break in January. Experts do not expect any changes this time. If we look at statistics, the RBA had not changed interest rates since September 2016.

Despite the fact that the economic growth of Australia is firm and the labor market has improved, inflation data does not give reasons to the RBA to change the interest rates. In the fourth quarter CPI rose less than anticipated by 0.1 percentage points and still it is lower than RBAโ€™s 2-3% target.

The Australian dollar is quite volatile now. On the daily chart AUD/USD, we can see that moving inside the upward trend, Aussie achieved its highest point at 0.8135 since May 2015. After that, it started falling, when received the support at 38.2 Fibonacci retracements and changed its direction again. Although the RBA is not going to raise the interest rates this time, experts expect upbeat comments. It supports the Aussie.

1517842484-875612112b44805221d72d28a5294

Traders should take into account that Aussie will be volatile on Tuesday because several important figures will be announced. ย Retail sales and trade balance will be published before interest rates at 2:30 MT time.

Also, on Friday, February 9 at 2:30 MT time, the RBA will give a more detailed economic outlook, delivering Monetary Policy Statement.

Making a conclusion, we can say that although the RBA had not been changing interest rates for a long time, and is not anticipated to do it tomorrow, analysts expect it this year for sure. The growth of the economy and inflation that is supported by the labor market and rising demand for commodities can lead to the increase of interest rates.
