    YM: general review

    Current trend

    Dow Jones continues to trade near historical maximums: 21223.2 or 8/8 Murrey. Breaking through and consolidation above this level will open it the way to 21250.4. In the near future a vote on the Financial Choice Act project may take place. The purpose of the project is to reduce the level of regulation of the US baning system and reserve requirements for commercial banks. If the project is passed, the market may experience excessive liquidity which in the end may positively influence the stock market.

    The second event that may impact stock markets all over the world is the UK parliamentary election. According to the initial data, the majority of places in the Parliament is to be taken by the Conservative Party under the leadership of Theresa May. However due to terrorist attacks the gap between them and other parties (namely the Labor Party) is narrowing.
    Initial and secondary jobless claims are also to be publised in the USA. A slight drop by approximately 8 thousand is expected.

    Support and resistance

    Stochastic is reaching the level of 80 points or the overbought zone and signals about possible correction. Short positions may be opened only in case the lower support level of 7/8 Murrey or 21094.1 is broken through.
    Support levels: 21094.1.
    Resistance levels: 21223.2.

    Trading tips

    Short positions may be opened from the level of 21094.1 with targets at 20937.8 and stop-loss at 21223.2.

    GBP/USD: general review

    Current trend

    The pound fell by over 200 points against US dollar in view of release of exit polls data. According to them, the possibility that the Concervative Party may lose its absolute majority in the Parliament remained. Prime Minister Theresa May called for an early election hoping to get far bigger advantage, and the results of the election were truly shocking. Thus, according to recent BBC data, the conservatives are expected to get 318 places out of 650, and the Labor Party is to receive 267 places. The Brexit process becomes even more uncertain now which will add risks for the pound in the short and medium term.

    The main item of the agenda today is the results of the UK election. After the release of the official data the market is expected to become volatile.

    Support and resistance

    Support levels: 1.2700.
    Resistance levels: 1.2750, 1.2780, 1.2800, 1.2850.

    Trading tips

    EUR/USD: general review

    Current trend

    Today, the euro is strengthening against the US dollar after a decline at the end of last week, which was partly caused by the unexpected outcome of the parliamentary elections in the UK. Tory, contrary to expectations, could not gain an absolute majority in the parliament, the position of Therese May, as acting Prime Minister, weakened, which could affect negotiations on the Brexit process. It should be noted that this election outcome may be an advantage for the Eurozone, because the results have introduced a new uncertainty factor into the economy of Britain, and European leaders would like to start negotiations on Brexit as soon as possible.

    This week, a number of economic releases are planned for the Eurozone, and the US Federal Reserve's decision on the interest rate is also expected.

    Support and resistance

    The decline at the end of last week was rather a correction of the upward trend, than a change in the general trend. On the 4-hour chart, the pair broke off from the support level of 1.1170 and adjusted to the midline of the indicator "Bollinger bands" at around 1.1219. The MACD histogram is in the negative area, keeping a weak signal to sell.
    Support levels: 1.1200, 1.1170, 1.1120.
    Resistance levels: 1.1240, 1.1265, 1.1280

    Trading tips


    Long positions can be opened at the level of 1.1230 with the target of 1.1280 and the stop loss at the level of 1.1200.
    Short positions should be set at 1.1190 with a target of 1.1120 and a stop loss at 1.1220.
    Implementation time: 1-2 days.

    WTI Crude Oil: general review

    Current trend

    WTI quotes after a long fall moved to the upward correction phase from the level of 45.36. Oil prices gained certain support from the statement of the Minister of Energy of Saudi Arabia that his country has considerably decrease oil supply to the market. 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 data shows the increase of the reserves, WTI quotes will get under pressure. Otherwise oil prices will be supported in the short term.

    Support and resistance

    Technical indicators point at the preservation of the buyers activity. Bollinger Bands are pointing upwards. MACD histogram is in negative zone, but its volume is decreasing, signalling about the increasing influence of the buyers. Breaking through the level of 46.85 will be a signal for growth continuation and will open the way to the level of 47.80 for the buyers. If the sellers take the initiative and drop the rate below the lower line of Bollinger Bands (46.11), the fall will continue to 45.38.
    Support levels: 46.11, 45.38, 44.53.
    Resistance levels: 46.85, 47.80, 49.00.

    GBP/USD: general review

    Current trend

    The rate of GBP/USD continues to gradually strengthen and has already reached the level of 1.2800, but failed to consolidate above it.

    After the release of mixed statistics pon the UK labor market the rate moved downward. Jobless Claims were better than expected and decreased to 7.3K in May from 22K a month earlier. Average salary was worse than expected: the growth of the indicator slowed down to 2.1% in April against 2.3% a month earlier. Investors reacted to this news with the sales of the British currency.

    After the release of statistics from the UK the main macroeconomic event of the day will be the decision of FOMC on the interest rate followed by comments on the fiscal policy. Market participants expect FOMC to increase the interest rate at its meeting by 0.25 percentage points t 1.25%. Thus, the fact of the rate's increase has already been included into the current USD rate.

    If the rate is increased, US dollar will receive support in the short term which will lead to the reduction of GBP/USD rate. If FOMC decides not to increase the rate, or if follow-up comments of its head show cautious or pessimistic attitude to the prospects of the US economy (level of unemployment, inflation), investors will start to sell USD which would lead to the growth of GBP/USD rate.

    Support and resistance

    Technical indicators don't provide a clear signal. Bollinger Bands are directed sidewards indicating lateral movement. MACD histogram is reducing in the negative zone reacting to the recent growth of the rate but does not provide a clear signal. Stochastic is directed downwards indicating the increasing influence of sellers.
    Support levels: 1.2714, 1.2674, 1.2636.
    Resistance levels: 1.2768, 1.2802, 1.2850.

    Trading tips

    Sell positions may be opened below 1.2714 with targets at 1.2674-1.2636 at stop-loss at 1.2740.
    Buy positions may be opened above the level of 1.2768 with targets at 1.2802, 1.2850 and stop-loss at 1.2745.

    Current trend
    Last week the Bank of England announced its decision on the interest rate. The value of 0.25% remained unchanged, but in the comments on the fiscal policy the representatives of the Central Bank announced not only positive aspects but also risks for the UK in view of the upcoming Brexit negotiations.

    Within the next week market participants may expect high volatility in the trading instrument as Brexit negotiations are going to be complicated.
    No important releases are expected from the USA or UK today, therefore the pair is likely to consolidated with a slight "bullish" tendency. The key even of the current week will be the release of the data from the US Department of Labor on the number of initial jobless claims.

    On D1 chart the pair is trading in the lower part of Bollinger Bands. The indicator has reversed downwards while the price range has slightly narrowed confirming the turn from the upward trend.

    Brent Crude Oil: general analysis

    Current trend
    Oil prices began to fall on May, 25, after the OPEC decision to prolong the oil production limitation Agreement. In the end of the last week the price met the strong support around 46.70. The reaction of the oil price around this year minimum will possibly determine the further price movement in the nearest future. The active development of the shale oil production in the USA is one of the main factors, which are weakening the oil. Besides, the OPEC Agreement leads to the gradual lowering of the world oil resources. In his last speech the Saudi Arabia Industrial and Energy Minister Khalid Al-Falih was confident, that in the 4th quarter 2017 the oil price and recourses will reach the needed balance.
    The EIA Crude Oil Stocks change data, which are due at 16:30 (GMT+2) tomorrow, will clear the further development of the situation. The amount of the resources is expected to lower. The Baker Hughes US Oil Rig Count, due at 19:00 (GMT+2) on Friday, is an important issue, too.
    Today at 14:00 (GMT+2) and at 21:00 (GMT+2) the USA FRS Members Fischer and Kaplan speeches will be published. According to the last FRS Members commentaries and the Head of the FRS Janet Yellen speech rhetoric, they are trying to support the USD verbally despite the macroeconomic reality.
    The development of the correction is expected in the nearest two days.

    Support and resistance
    Support levels: 46.70, 45.80, 45.00, 44.10.
    Resistance levels: 47.30, 48.50, 50.00, 51.50.

    Trading scenario
    Open long positions at the current price with the target at 48.50, 50.00 and stop loss at 46.90.
    Open short positions at the level of 46.70, with the target at 45.80, 45.00 and stop loss at 47.40.
