    EUR/USD: summer drop and volatility

    Current trend
    The rate of EUR/USD is in the side tendency and has been consolidating in the narrow channel for a month. The summer season is at its peak, and the leaders of Eurozone and the USA have postoponed their key decisions for autumn. The only movement catalyst was the decision of FOMC to increase the rates that has been in the making for a long time.
    Despite this, the rate of USD against EUR underwent almost no significant changes. The pair has been trading within the limit of 120 points since the middle of May. Last week it dropped due to the growth of demand for USD in view of FOMC decisions but by Friday the pair returned to starting points. Today the economic calendar containst no macroeconomic releases from Europe and the USA.

    Support and resistance
    No major fluctuations of the pair are expected in the medium term. Lateral channel is likely to narrow down. Even tomorrow's statements by ECB President Mario Draghi and FOMC chair Janet Yelln are not likely to provoke volatility.
    Despite this, the upward trend has been broken, and there is high possibility that the pair will drop in the long term. The downward tendency may continue to the lower border of the long-term upward range at 1.0820. The main supporting factors are weak demand for EUR in view of Brexit and growing investors' interest in weakened USD supported by the increase of the key interest rate. Technical indicators confirm the downward tendency. The volumes of long positions in MACD indicator dropped rapidly, and Bollinger Bands are rearranging horizontally.
    Support levels: 1.1155, 1.1125, 1.1100, 1.1020, 1.1000, 1.0950, 1.0820, 1.0710, 1.0570.
    Resistance levels: 1.1200, 1.1230, 1.1280, 1.1350, 1.1370, 1.1470.

    Trading tips
    Positions may be opened from the borders of the channel. Short positions may be opened after a sell signal following the breakout of the key support levels 1.1125, 1.1100 with targets at 1.0950, 1.0820.

    Brent Crude Oil: general review

    Current trend
    Oil quotes attempted to grow once again. Moving away from the support level of 45.17, they are trying to consolidate above the resistance level of 46.31. Technical indicators show the increasing influence of the buyers. Bollinger Bands are pointing upwards. The volumes of MACD histogram are actively reducing in the negative zone and have moved to the positive one. Breaking through the level of 46.31 will be a signal of growth continuation. In this case the nearest targets of the buyers will be 47.00, 48.00. If the level of 46.31 is not bronek through, and the sellers manage to take the initiative, the fall will continue to 45.58, 44.48.
    Today market players will pay attention to initial data from API on weekly changes of oil reserves in the USA (22:30, GMT+2). If the report points at considerable reduction of reserve, Brent will gain strong support in the short term. Otherwise the fall will continue. Generally the news in the oil market remain negative. The market still has not seen any effect from OPEC+ agreement extension. Due to the remaining oversupply of oil it is difficult for the prices to move to stable growth.

    Support and resistance
    Support levels: 45.58, 44.48, 43.52.
    Resistance levels: 46.31, 47.00, 48.01.

    USD/CHF: general analysis

    Current trend
    The US dollar has been weakening against the Swiss franc for the third day. At the moment the pair is trading at the level of 0.9577. The nearest key support level is 0.9521. The fall of the USD is caused mainly by the IMF commentary upon the decreasing of the expecting growth rate of the US economy. Analysts expect that the forecast is connected with the disagreement of the Republicans and Democrats in the White House, which can prevent all the President’s attempts to imply the tax reformation. Originally the plan was to decrease the federal budget income tax rate for corporations to 15%. According to Congressmen, the step can lead to 2 trillion USD shortage in the budget. On the other hand, this can lead to the increase of the economy growth rate and compensate the lowering of the tax base. In addition, the IMF experts noted that the USD is overpriced by 10-15% against main world currencies at the moment, which undermines the competitiveness of the US goods and negatively affects the economy growth.
    The Initial Jobless Claims data will we published today in the USA: the index is expected to stay at the same level of 240K. The Q1 Gross Domestic Product Annualized publication is also expected today.

    Support and resistance
    Support level: 0.9521.
    Resistance level: 0.9643.

    Trading scenario
    Long positions can be opened at the level of 0.9643 with the target at 0.9700 and stop loss around 0.9521.

    AUD/USD: general analysis

    Current trend
    The AUD/USD pair is strongly growing during the last week, and the main driver of the increase is the uncertainty in the further USA monetary policy.
    Yesterday the key issue was the President of the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis James Bullard’s speech, after which the pair managed to break the resistance level of 0.7780 and reached March maximum. According to Bullard, the main FRS problem is the inflation level in the country, which doesn’t meet the US regulator’s plans to increase the interest rate this year. The FRS official added that it’s difficult to reach the target of 2%, and the fall of the treasury bonds yields is connected with the inflation risks. However, Bullard highlighted the good employment YoY data and accented, that he expected the more positive statistics in the future.
    Today the traders should pay attention to the Personal Spending data publication in the USA. The index is the key inflation indicator, and the weak data can support the pair greatly.

    Support and resistance
    On the daily chart the pair consolidated above the level of 0.7680. Bollinger Bands are pointed upwards, as the price range stays the same, which reflects the development of the upward trend. MACD histogram is in the positive zone, keeping the buy signal. Stochastic entered the oversold area.
    Support levels: 0.7675, 0.7637, 0.7610, 0.7575.
    Resistance levels: 0.7712, 0.7740, 0.7765.

    Trading scenario
    Long positions can be opened at the current price with targets at 0.7715, 0.7755 and stop loss at 0.7655. Implementation period: 1-3 days.

    XAG/USD: general analysis

    Current trend
    Silver has been weakening during the last months, and last week has almost reached the 2-month minima at the area of 16.20-16.50. Other precious metals, gold and platinum, are trading with the same dynamics. This decrease is characterized by the simultaneous fall of the US dollar. Why the traders aren’t using the precious metals as a safe haven? Take a look at the main currency pairs’ dynamics, especially commodity ones. During the last 4-6 weeks all the commodity currencies have been growing. Canadian, European and the UK currency grew due to the tightening of its regulators’ rhetoric. The AUD was supported by the growth of the copper and iron ore prices. In the most of these countries the growth of the governments bonds’ yields can be seen, and it attracts the additional investors’ recourses and decreases the investors’ interest of the precious metals.
    Last week as a result silver fell to the strong support level, which consist of two daily channels borders: the lower border of the blue 18-month channel and the upper border of the 1-year black channel.
    Today the key data, which will be published, are: US Markit Manufacturing PMI at 16:00 (GMT+2), which is expected to be slightly positive, the Unemployment Rate at 11:00 (GMT+2) in the EU (slight decrease by 0.1% is expected).
    The growth of silver within the correction from the strong support level is expected in the next two days.

    Support and resistance
    Support levels: 16.45, 16.00, 15.60, 15.00.
    Resistance levels: 16.80, 17.10, 17.35.

    Trading tips
    Long positions can be opened at the current price with the targets at 16.80, 17.10 and stop loss at 16.25.
    Short positions can be opened at the level of 16.45 with the targets at 16.00, 15.60, stop loss is at 16.90.
    Implementation period: 2-3 days.
