Forex Analysis & Reviews: Trading Signal for GOLD (XAU/USD) for December 21 - 22, 2022: sell below $1,821 and $1,809 (21 SMA - 6/8 Murray)



Early in the European session, Gold (XAUUSD) is trading around 1,816.14 above the 6/8 Murray and within the downtrend channel formed on December 12.

Yesterday, during the European session and the American session, gold started a strong bullish movement after it had broken the pennant pattern. In view of the fact that this pattern has completed its goal, it is probable that there will be a technical correction in the next few hours and the metal could reach the support of 1,810.

In case the uptrend continues and the price breaks above 1,821, it could accelerate the bullish move towards daily R_1 around 1,830.

Conversely, in case XAU/USD continues trading below 1,821, we could expect a decline and the price may reach the 1,810 zone. A sharp break below this level could trigger a bearish signal and we could expect a fall towards the 200 EMA located at 1,792.

Our trading plan for the next few hours is to sell below 1,821 with targets at 1,810. If gold consolidates above the 21 SMA, we can expect a technical bounce to resume buying with targets at 1,821 and 1,830.

In case gold consolidates below 1,809, it will be a clear signal to sell with targets at 1,800 and 1,793 (200 EMA). The eagle indicator on the 1-hour chart is showing overbought levels, hence, an imminent correction could occur in the next few hours.

Forex Analysis & Reviews: Technical Analysis of Intraday Price Movement of Dow Jones Industrial Average Index, Thursday December 22 , 2022.



If we look at the 4-hour chart, the Dow Jones Industrial Average index seems to be corrected upwards to test the SBR (Support Become Resistance) level which also happens to be the Daily Breaker Block from #INDU, namely level 33415.9 where this level also happens to be in the Bearish Fair Value Gap area. even though the upward correction of the rally has been confirmed by the appearance of deviations between the #INDU price movement and the Stochastic Oscillator indicator, if the Resistance levels previously described are strong enough to withstand the upward correction rally and/or as long as it does not break above the 33756.6 level, then #INDU has the opportunity to fall back down to the level area 32612.4-32241.9 as the first target and the area level 31761.6-31240.1 as the second target.

Forex Analysis & Reviews: GBP/USD. Overview for December 26, 2022



In contrast to the EUR/USD pair, the GBP/USD currency pair is still in motion. Now that the pound is at least moving and not just standing still, we aren't talking about a volatile movement anymore. Although, based on Friday, there were no noteworthy movements, the pound/dollar pair may also experience a flat in the upcoming months. In essence, there were the same reports from the United States on Friday regarding the pound and the euro. And as we can see, they had no impact on the pair's movement. Given that the reports were so brief, this does not surprise us. The month's major events are all over, and now that the holidays have started, there is no doubt that traders are less motivated to engage in active trading.

Technically speaking, the price is still below the moving average, and the downward movement is still present. Thus, everything in this situation makes sense. For the past three weeks, we have been anticipating a significant downward correction. It is not yet "strong," but at least it has something. Since the British economy may experience a severe recession and the Bank of England rate will not continue to rise at its current rate indefinitely, we think the pound should continue to decline against the US dollar. However, inflation is still out of control, and we have serious doubts that it will start to slow down soon at a rate comparable to that in the United States. This compels the Bank of England to keep tightening monetary policy, on the one hand. On the other hand, the third quarter saw a decline in the economy, and officials have predicted a two-year recession. Tightening monetary policy inevitably means making the recession worse. As a result, we don't think the British regulator will keep raising the rate by 0.50% every time they meet.

The period of consolidation might start soon.

The absence of trend movement in the overall plan is what we refer to as the consolidation period. Recall that the pair's growth over the past few months, which is a correction in and of itself, followed an approximately two-year downward trend. As a result, the correction against the correction has already started. After that, the pair may enter a long-term "swing" on the senior TF, which would indicate the absence of any new significant factors like a global tightening or loosening of monetary policy or changes in geopolitics. We won't be surprised if 2023 also has surprises because of the trend of recent years (the situation is getting worse and worse every year). The "coronavirus" is raging in China, and it is dispersing at a completely abnormal rate, according to the most recent information. One of the messages mentioned a day-long infection of 37 million people. As a result, COVID still terrorizes humanity and has not disappeared. The world will once more experience economic issues if it spills out of the Celestial Empire. Lockdowns, quarantines, and widespread infections can all begin anew. Then there are the central bank incentive plans and a new rise in inflation. Overall, it is still very early to resolve this problem.

We are also certain that there will be geopolitical news. Many military experts believe that the coming year will be crucial in the military conflict in Ukraine. We cannot define what "decisive" means, but we can only state that neither side in this conflict intends to engage in peace talks. Therefore, in our opinion, it will only get worse and continue. Additionally, the euro and the pound are risky currencies that will happily decline if the global situation deteriorates. It still hasn't even calmed down.



Over the previous five trading days, the GBP/USD pair has averaged 131 points of volatility. This value is "high" for the dollar/pound exchange rate. As a result, on Friday, December 23, we anticipate channel movement that is constrained by levels of 1.1899 and 1.2161. A round of upward correction will begin if the Heiken Ashi indicator reverses direction upward.

Nearest levels of support
S1 – 1.2024
S2 – 1.1963
S3 – 1.1902
Nearest levels of resistance
R1 – 1.2085
R2 – 1.2146
R3 – 1.2207

Trading Suggestions:
On the 4-hour timeframe, the GBP/USD pair is still trending downward. Therefore, until the Heiken Ashi indicator appears, you should maintain sell orders with targets of 1.1963 and 1.1899. When the moving average is fixed above, buy orders should be placed with targets of 1.2207 and 1.2268.

The United States Dollar Index on the 4-hour chart seems to be moving in ranging conditions in the range of 103.42-104.90 which has also been confirmed by the movement of the Moving Average which is moving in the range of the body of the Candlestick, this is understandable given that there are not many market participants. which is still in the Christmas and New Year holiday season but based on the CCI indicator which managed to break above the -100 level and above level 0 which indicates that the condition of Buyers is still more dominant than Sellers plus there is a deviation between price movements and the CCI indicator, it seems that in In the near future, USDX will try to test a level above its current price, namely 104.75 as its first target and 104.90 as its second target, but given the low volatility if USDX falls below the 103.72 level, it is very likely that the scenario described earlier will become invalid and cancel itself.

Forex Analysis & Reviews: Elliott wave analysis of EUR/USD on December 30, 2022




EUR/USD has been locked in a sideways consolidation, but we continue to look for a slightly deeper correction towards 1.0470 to complete wave 4/ and set the stage for wave 5/ higher to 1.0927 as this will complete wave 3.

In the longer term, we are looking for much higher levels for EUR/USD, but we will have to take the ride higher in baby steps as always as most of the time, the pair hovers within sideways consolidations and corrective counter-trends and only 1/3 of the time, it actually moves higher.
