Click here to join free --- The AUD/USD is correcting towards a daily swing buy The daily AUD/USD has continues to correct lower, creating intraday downtrends on the 15, 30, and 60-minute time frames fueled by the weakness in commodities, namely the two-day sell off in crude oil. The pullback in crude oil begun with the exhaustion at 114.83 which reflects the selling pressure in front of the 115.00 major psychological level. The subsequent trading sessions have seen a sell-off to below 109/bbl and has been a drag on the AUD/USD (and USD/CAD as well). The uptrend on the daily AUD\/USD confirms the bullish Directional Bias which increases the likelihood that support levels will be bought and also means short entries are COUNTER TREND. Not that I am against a short on the five, 15, or 30-minute time frame if it's valid but I'd rather position my entries with the trend and the dominant market psychology. That being said, the downtrend on the 15-minute chart is correcting into the resistance of the 34EMA Wave while the 30 and 60-minute charts both still have a "four to six o'clock" mark down trend. This means that the intraday time frames are not (yet) confirming that the bears are done. There's still more room to the downside before the daily reaches the "swing short zone" between the 20 period SMA and 34 period EMA high. Look for support to also be waiting at the 1.0680 level if 1.0700 is broken. This level is only 40 pips away so it is certainly not out of the question. With the U.S. Dollar Index continuing to dance around the 73.00 level, the AUD/USD uptrend will likely be more dependent upon crude oil stabilizing between 108.50 and 108/bbl. --- Forex Trading analysis written by Raghee Horner for Forexpros. --- New on Forexpros, the Fibonacci Calculator ! --- Disclaimer: Trading Futures and Options on Futures and Cash Forex transactions involves substantial risk of loss and may not be suitable for all investors.

It was a welcomed move for Canadian exporters, and is likely to be met with equally exuberant selling. While the week took us from nearly 0.9450 to above 0.9700 (closing at 0.9664), no technical damage has been done to the downtrend, and at the moment it remains firmly entrenched. Thursday and Friday put the market in an improbable position for continued strength. This is not to say further strength cannot occur, but it is unlikely without first a pullback into the 0.96 - 0.9550 region. With the trend down, the pair has not lasted long above the Bollinger Bands to the upside prior. The pair has moved aggresively away from its mean price is likely due for a pullback towards 0.9600-0.9550 (the mean price projected forward). USD/CAD Daily Chart,On a positive note for USD, the volatility has increased. Trends are complacent, and countertrend moves and a potential reversal will require volatility to increase and stay up. It is highly unlikely that after the sedate trickle this market has had lower it will just reverse course casually and drift higher. Positions will be shaken out, and the pot will need to be stirred for this trend to reverse. The longer-term or daily downtrend remains in place until the rate climbs above 0.9800. A rally above 0.9740 would indicate USD bullishness and a likely test of the trendline at 0.9800. 0.9800 is a probable high for the week based on average weekly movement, but volatility did increase last week, therefore watch for extensions into 0.9850. The recent lows at 0.9450 are to be well supported this week with support likely at 0.9550, followed by 0.9500 and 0.9450. Support above 0.9450 is a bullish sign and with an upward push after would create a short-term uptrend. --- Forex Trading analysis written by Cory Mitchell for Forexpros. --- New on Forexpros, the Fibonacci Calculator ! --- Disclaimer: Trading Futures and Options on Futures and Cash Forex transactions involves substantial risk of loss and may not be suitable for all investors.

There's a stall in the U.S. Dollar that indicates that the bears are feeling brave. If this keeps up, the 75.36 high that surrounded by two lower highs on the daily chart could signal an aggressive three-candle reversal pattern. Along with the 50 period SMA and lack of buying support above the major psychological level at 75.00, this could usher in near-term weakness. The Swiss Franc looks reading to move lower as the 20 period SMA sits overhead pressuring buyers and weighting down the bounce within the (very) established downtrend. The swing short zone remains between the 20 period SMA and 34 period EMA low but prices have not been able to travel much past the resistance of the 20 period and support above 0.8800 remains elusive. If however the bulls can establish support above the “00”, the tone could chance for the short-term, very quickly and move the pair towards 0.8900. The near-term bullishness that has created the correction on the daily chart still has the 30 and 60-minute charts in mark up trends which does validate swing buys on the 30-minute (only). This is a counter-trend entry and should be taken on a time frame no larger than the 30. --- Forex Trading analysis written by Raghee Horner for Forexpros. --- New on Forexpros, the Fibonacci Calculator ! --- Disclaimer: Trading Futures and Options on Futures and Cash Forex transactions involves substantial risk of loss and may not be suitable for all investors.

Click here to join free --- Intraday congestion shows the indecision in the EUR/USD The dollar’s buying momentum continues to struggle at 75.70. Recent highs at 75.73 and 75.70 have proved to be where the bulls are stepping off the train. With that in mind let’s consider what that means for the EUR/USD as prices tackle the resistance between 1.4276 and 1.4288. This 12 pip area in front of the 1.4300 major psychological level is proving to be a formidable ceiling. The daily chart of the EUR/USD while not quire confirming a downtrend, is trading below the 34EMA Wave with red GRaB candles.* *GRaB candles are a way that I have changed traditional candlesticks to show sentiment and momentum as it relates back to price action and my 34EMA Wave. When prices are trading above the 34 period EMA high the candles plot green (light green for an up close and dark green for a down close), when prices trade within the 34 period EMA high and 34 period EMA low the candles plot light/dark blue, and for price action below the 34 period EMA low, prices plot light/dark red. The MT4 version for indicator is free for download at RagheeHorner.com. Search for "GRaB 2.0". The rollover through the 34EMA Wave is - for now - more indicative of distribution than a downtrend although with consistent resistance at the 34 period EMA low and a push for lower lows and lower highs, the trend could shift to a mark down as the 34EMA Wave takes on a “four to six o’clock” angle. There is a certain “wait and see” attitude that the EUR/USD is reflecting and I think much of it has to do with whether the 76.00 level on the U.S. Dollar Index will prove to be resistance or whether buyers can carry the index above the major psychological level. Much of this will have to do with the Fed’s stance on a future interest rate hike (slim to none especially with growing whispers of QE3) and whether the concern for inflation in Europe can overcome the concern for higher borrowing rates as the ECB tries to dig out of it sovereign debt mess (think Greece, Portugal, and Spain). --- Forex Trading analysis written by Raghee Horner for Forexpros. --- New on Forexpros, the Currency Correlation Calculator ! --- Disclaimer: Trading Futures and Options on Futures and Cash Forex transactions involves substantial risk of loss and may not be suitable for all investors.

In fact, the Yellow Metal held out to the downward pressure and rebounded above the psychological threshold of 1,500 $/oz. The Market Driver of the week was undoubtedly the strengthening of the U.S. Dollar, which has come back under 1.40 on the Cross Eur/Usd. The great weakness of the Euro currency is probably due to the strong pressure on some countries of the Old Continent; in fact, two important macroeconomic news strongly weakened the Euro last week: the downgrade of debt ratings of Greece from B+ to BB+ by Fitch and the unexpected change of outlook for Italy from stable to negative by Standard & Poor's. Accordingly, the Euro weakened, losing ground against the Greenback. The result has been the reaching of the all-time high of Gold against Euro, 1080.23 €/oz. Unfortunately, the forecast for the Cross seems to be negative, as Greece's concerns appear larger and more complicated to solve than expected and rumors about a possible exclusion of the Hellenic country from Eurozone begins to rumble on the market. The risk involved in that case is the "domino effect" that may lead to a real structural crisis of the European Union. Macroeconomic news are expected for the week: U.S. Jobless Claims (05/26), U.S. Core PCE (05/27) and Michigan Confidence (05/27). From the financial point of view, after some days of sales, Gold ETFs have strongly increased the amount of physical Gold held, reaching 2,062 Tons. With regard to the financial positions at COTR, at the contrary, we can appreciate a further decrease in Net Long Positions, fell to 23.9 Mln, the - 7.8%. From a technical point of view, Gold is fluctuating around the psychological threshold of 1,500 $/oz, without showing trend signals. The 1,487 $/oz level has provided a firm support to the bullish trend, which in the long run remains intact. In the short term, however, it is possible that the Metal can fluctuate into the side channel between 1,518 $/oz and 1,487 $/oz. It will be important to see the breaking of one of these two levels to understand the new direction of the market. First support at 1,500 $/oz and first resistance at 1,506 $/oz. We recommend extreme caution in taking positions because of the volatility and uncertainty. --- Forex Trading analysis written by Filippo Finocchi for Forexpros. --- New on Forexpros, the Currency Correlation Calculator ! --- Disclaimer: Trading Futures and Options on Futures and Cash Forex transactions involves substantial risk of loss and may not be suitable for all investors.

The Directional Bias in crude oil has continued to pressure the market lower as the 100.00 figure looms overheads as resistance. This psychological level is the key for the bears - keeping the sentiment negative - but getting above this level is key for the bulls in order to attract buying momentum. Never underestimated the power of a whole round number… The 34EMA Wave is moving lower at between “four and six o’clock” on the daily chart. With the fears of a slowdown in China, with fears of a more pronounces correction in U.S. equities, and with the U.S. Dollar continuing to find support above 76.00 there is potentially more downside to come in commodities. Therefore as I set up swing shorts on the bounces between 99.50 and 101.00 in crude oil, I am also looking for exhaustion and breakdowns in the AUD/USD and will buy pullbacks in the USD\/CAD. The USD/CAD daily has a bullish Directional Bias so I will look for pullbacks on not only the daily but also the 240-minute time frame. The AUD/USD is still consolidating although has pushed past recent lows. The 240-minute offers a swing off the 34EMA Wave while the daily is setting up a momentum breakdown if prices trade through 1.0480. --- Forex Trading analysis written by Raghee Horner for Forexpros. --- New on Forexpros, the Currency Correlation Calculator ! --- Disclaimer: Trading Futures and Options on Futures and Cash Forex transactions involves substantial risk of loss and may not be suitable for all investors.

Click here to join free --- EUR-USD As I mentioned here yesterday, a correction in the US stock markets can weaken the US dollar, and so it happened. The reversal pattern in the daily is getting support at 1.40, and though a bear-flag occurred, it seems that the Euro is more likely to correct from this point, than to break down. Stochastic levels indicating oversold, and a break-up of 1.4140 can cause the short-positions holders to close their position in market orders, and lift the Euro up. Keep watching the movement of the 20 & 50 EMAs on the daily. A cross of the 20 EMA will signal for a bearish trend. USD-CHF I have been following this pair for several weeks, looking for potential reversal trades. A possible enter was at the break down of 87.50, and it is not necessary too late to join in. The daily charts shows an obvious bearish trend which is followed by an accurate trading line and "lower high & lows" pattern. The next support is at the round number- 87.0. If this support is broken, then this symbol might slide about 200 pips to 0.85. Stochastic levels show that this is an excellent level for the sellers to go in, after shaking out the amateurs in the false break at 0.88. --- Forex Trading analysis written by Bastian Rubben for Forexpros. --- New on Forexpros, the Currency Correlation Calculator ! --- Disclaimer: Trading Futures and Options on Futures and Cash Forex transactions involves substantial risk of loss and may not be suitable for all investors.

Yen at Resistance Euro: On the daily, the euro is in consistent measured moves long and decisively broke the short setups its been in the past months. The next point of resistance may be the traditional half way back short at 1.44547, but best to see the reaction given the euro's strength. On the 15 minute chart, the euro's measured moves longs are clear. The next extension long is at 1.43632 (line in sand 1.43534) and full traditional long is at 1.43298 (line in sand at 1.43122).

Yen: On the daily, the yen has come into resistance at its half way back long within the range at 80.88, with a target at 82.871. The yen is still closer to the bottom of its range.

Euro: The euro is still in measured moves long and the setups are yet to be broken. The next setup's target is at 1.44548. This corresponds with the full half way back short at 1.44547, with the line in the sand at 1.4569. This is a tricky area. The euro is in strong unbroken setups but is coming up against strong resistance so best to watch this area. Pound: On the daily, the pound broke its daily long setups and has reacted off its next 50% short at 1.6484, with a target at 1.63477. This could signal a reversal in trend into the next long setup. This is best seen in the 15 min chart. Yen: On the daily, the yen has reacted off a 50% long at the bottom of the range, with a target at 82.551 which is just above the larger short setup at 82.551, which the yen is currently in. --- Forex Trading analysis written by Diana Rochford for Forexpros. --- New on Forexpros, the Currency Correlation Calculator ! --- Disclaimer: Trading Futures and Options on Futures and Cash Forex transactions involves substantial risk of loss and may not be suitable for all investors.

Click here to join free --- Outlook for the EUR/USD & GBP/USD for today Wall Street finished lower on the background of Bernanke' speech. He suggested that economy's slowdown is impact by factors that might continue to 2012. However, the plunging was expected after Wednesday's risings in the US markets. The level of 1280 at the S&P 500, which was a resistance level until two days ago, is now a supporting area. Many traders who missed the initial break-up will try to join in now, so the bulls might show up around this level. A sharp break-down of 1280 will signal that Wall Street's increasing on the beginning of the week was just a correction. The unemployment claims and existing home sales data are today's main events. EUR-USD The Euro reached the target I had set at 1.44, but the volatility in Wall Street makes it hard to determine a clear direction. The triangle in the daily emphasizes this situation as we can see that highs are getting lowers, whereas lows are getting higher. This indicates that the buyers and sellers are about to meet around 1.43. Things look positive for the Euro, but it depends on the US stock markets. GBP-USD The pound is finally facing the support of the 200 SMA at 1.605, which I have been following for several weeks. An "Inverted Cup with Handle" pattern appears in the daily chart, and a successful break-down might cause a deep diving to 1.57. However, when a chart looks so accurate, you must take precautions against a false break. If the buyers show their strength and the pound crosses above yesterday's high at 1.6270, it will be a bullish signal. --- Forex Trading analysis written by Bastian Rubben for Forexpros. --- Visit Forexpros new Forex Brokers Directory ! --- Disclaimer: Trading Futures and Options on Futures and Cash Forex transactions involves substantial risk of loss and may not be suitable for all investors.

Following the G7 intervention to weaken the Yen, this pair rallied to 123.31, a large appreciation, considering that the preceding low had been at 107.65. Since then, however, things have changed dramatically. The price pulled back to 113.40, corresponding with a minor low from late March. This established an important support. After that, the EUR/JPY failed to resume its bullish direction, testing the new support instead. It dropped to that level again just recently and even closed last week very close to it. It is clear that the EUR/PY is under pressure. The price keeps gravitating lower and some of technical indicators have turned decisively bearish as well. For example, the Ichimoku cloud (Kumo) no longer offers a support for this pair, but became a resistance. The MACD turned under the zero line, which is negative. What is needed in order to complete the bearish picture, is for the price to close under 113.40 on this daily chart. With the Greek crisis still driving all the Euro pairs, this could easily take place during next few days. If this indeed happens, the EUR/JPY might move much lower – after all the next support is all the way down at 107.65. --- Forex Trading analysis written by Mike Kulej for Forexpros. --- Visit Forexpros new Forex Brokers Directory ! --- Disclaimer: Trading Futures and Options on Futures and Cash Forex transactions involves substantial risk of loss and may not be suitable for all investors.
