    USD/CHF: general analysis

    Current trend

    Since last week the pair has been trading around last May minimum due to the poor macroeconomical statistics and the decreasing possibility of the tightening of the USA Fed’s monetary policy. The price has broken the strong support level of 0.9510 and is still trading below this level. The US is falling and is under pressure of the macroeconomical data and political situation. The president of the Swiss National Bank Thomas Jordan commented that the franc was “highly overpriced” and the central bank would support negative interest rates.

    On Monday the US Markit Manufacturing (53.2) and Services (54.2) PMI was published, which have grown against the previous period, and the pair was slightly corrected. It grew to the level of 0.9476 (+0.14%). However, generally, the market is waiting for the FRS Meeting on Wednesday, when the interest rate decision will be taken, and for the USA GDP report on Friday.

    Support and resistance

    The pair is trading around lower border of Bollinger Bands, which are widened and are pointing downwards, which reflects a “bearish” trend. However, CCI is in the oversold area, the signal line is pointed upwards; the breakout of the level of –100 will give a buy signal. RSI has left the oversold area and is at the level of 32.4, also pointed upwards, giving a buy signal.

    Support levels: 0.94425, 0.93750, 0.92926.
    Resistance levels: 0.94897, 0.95391, 0.96007, 0.96998, 0.98586, 1.00071.

    Trading tips

    Long positions can be opened if the price is set above the level of 0.94897 with the targets at 0.95159 and 0.96007.
    Short positions will become relevant after the breakdown of the level of 0.94425 with the targets at 0.93750 and 0.92969.

    NZD/USD: the pair is in the horizontal channel

    Current trend

    Since the beginning of the week the pair has been in the narrow trading range 0.7443-0.7415 that currently coincides with Bollinger Bands. The calmness in the market is caused by waiting for today's Fed's meeting. The majority of experts do not believe in changes in the interest rate. Taking into account the fall of inflation in June (from 1.9% to 1.7%), the members of the Fed may abstain from making important decisions and will wait for autumn meetings. The rate is likely to remain at the level of 1.25%. The market will be interested in the follow-up statement that may give hints at further development of the monetary policy, for example, indicate the time for the beginning of balance reduction. NZD also lacks serious movement drivers. Important data on employment and dairy products index will be released only next week.

    Support and resistance

    Technically, the price is in the narrow side range of 0.7443-0.7415 that meets Bollinger Bands that narrowed down (as usual before considerable movements of the price). The consolidation of the price above the upper border of the range and the continuation of growth is possible to 0.7500 and 0.7550. In case the lower border is broken own, the fall may continue to 0.7360 and 0.7300 (Fibo correction 23.6%). Generally the market is uncertain (Bollinger Bands have narrowed and are located horizontally, as well as Stochastic) waiting for the results of the meeting of the US regulator.

    Support levels: 0.7415, 0.7360, 0.7300.
    Resistance levels: 0.7440, 0.7500, 0.7550.

    Trading tips

    If the price consolidates above 0.7443 long positions may be opened with targets at *0.7500, 0.756 and stop-loss at 0.7410. Consolidating below the level of 0.7415 will allow opening short positions with targets at 0.7360, 0.7300 and stop-loss at 0.7450.

    USD/JPY: general review

    Current trend

    Yesterday the Fed announced its decision on the interest rate. As expected, the value of 1.25% remained unchanged, but the cautious tone of the follow-up statement disappointed the investors that started to aggressively sell USD. As a result, the pair USD/JPY lost 100 points. At the same time, the US regulator still considers it possible that interest rates may be increased until the end of the year. Moreover, the Fed stated it intended to start reducing the volume of aggregated assets in September.

    The key event of today will be the release of data on jobless claims by the US Department of Labor. The expected growth of initial jobless claims from 233K to 241K will lead to further fall of the pair.

    Support and resistance

    On the D1 chart the instrument is trading around the lower border of Bollinger Bands. The indicator is turning sideways, while the price range has widened indicating the continuation of the current trend. MACD histogram is in the negative zone with its volumes reducing, and the signal line is directed downwards which is a signal for opening sell positions. Stochastic does not give clear signal for entering the market.

    Support levels: 110.70, 110.35, 109.90, 109.40.
    Resistance levels: 111.70, 112.15, 112.55, 112.95, 113.50.

    Trading tips

    Short positions may be opened from the current level with targets at 110.50, 110.35 and stop-loss at 111.40. The period of implementation is 1-3 days.
    Long positions may be opened from the level of 111.75 with targets at 112.35 and stop-loss at 111.50. The period of implementation is 1-3 days.

    XAU/USD: general review

    Current dynamics

    Precious metal receives support from a demand from Chinese consumers, who are actively investing to hedge risks, in particular against falling property prices. So, according to the latest data, Chinese consumption increased by 10% to 545.2 tons.
    Another factor of support for the XAU/USD pair is geopolitical risks. Donald Trump's advisers are trying to develop new sanctions against China. According to the American leader, China is engaged in unscrupulous trade practices and receives billions of profits, undervaluing the rate of the yuan. The aggravation of relations occurred when China did not do enough to restrain the development of the DPRK nuclear program and the launch of a new intercontinental missile.

    Support and resistance

    Gold on the H4 chart is trading near the support level of 5/8 Murray (1265.65). If the pair XAU/USD breaks this level, then the next target for the fall will be the level of 1250.02. If the price consolidates above the previous high of 1270.71, the target of growth will be the level of 1281.28.

    Resistance levels: 1270.71.
    Support levels: 1265.65.

    Trading tips

    Long positions can be opened at the level of 1270.71 with the target at 1281.28 and a stop-loss at the level of 1262.00.

    GBP/USD: the upward trend is still strong

    Current trend

    The British currency continues to go up against US dollar in view of the falling USD rate. Within two trading weeks the pair has been moving within the upward tendency without long corrections which indicates considerable decrease of demand for USD. US fundamental data cannot support the rate of the American currency. This and last week negative statistics was released on a number of macroeconomic indicators, namely construction sector, demand for durable goods, and labor market. The pound, in turn, is supported by strong demand and positive releases by key indexes.

    Despite negative data on UK PMI, GBP continues to grow. In the end of the current week special attention should be paid to labor market data and the main US indexes, as well as the decision of the Bank of England on the volumes of economic stimulation program and interest rate. Moreover, the follow-up speech by the head of the Bank of England Mark Carney scheduled for Thursday, may provide additional support for the pound.

    Support and resistance

    Technically the pair has a reserve of upward movement to the upper border of the upward channel at the level of 1.3450 followed by a long downward tendency. Currently there are no grounds for USD support from the fundamental background and the actions of the US regulator. Technical indicators confirm this tendency: MACD shows the preservation of the high volume of long positions, and Bollinger Bands point upwards.

    Support levels: 1.3200, 1.3125, 1.2930, 1.2805, 1.2700, 1.2590.
    Resistance levels: 1.3310, 1.3380, 1.3450, 1.3480, 1.3670, 1.3750.

    Trading tips
    Long positions may be opened from the current level with target at 1.3450 and stop-loss at 1.3100.
