    EUR/USD: the pair is decreasing in view of the upcoming inflation data

    Current trend

    The quotes of EUR/USD are decreasing today. Euro appeared to be under pressure of negative data on the volume of industrial output in France which reduced by 1.1% in June. Moreover, the fall of the pair was facilitated by the investors’ waiting for tomorrow’s data on CPI. The indicator is expected to grow in July from 0.0% to 0.2% MoM and from 1.6% to 1.8% YoY. The correctness of this forecast is proven by the growth of average salary in the USA in July by 0.3%. On the other hand, import prices have been decreasing since January, although the outlook for July is positive as well (the indicator is expected to grow by 0.1% after 2 months of falling). Generally, the possibility of inflation growth in the USA is quite high, but it may not reach the forecast levels.

    In the absence of important economic statistics today attention may be pair do the statement by the member of the Fed, head of FRB New York William Dudley in the framework of press briefing dedicated to the issues of salary payment in the region. Geopolitics may also make corrections to the movement of the pair. According to recent data, the US Department of Defense already has a plan of a preventive strike at 20 military objects of North Korea. Further aggravation of the situation between the USA and North Korea may lead to considerable market volatility and the weakening of USD.

    Support and resistance

    Currently the price is testing an important support level of 1.1700 (Fibo correction 23.6%, Murrey main support level , lower line of Bollinger Bands). Breaking through it may lead to further reduction to 1.1655 and 1.1590 (Fibo correction 38.2%, Murrey level ). One may speak about growth after the consolidation of the price above the level of 1.1755 (Fibo correction 38.2% for the long-term trend, middle line of Bollinger Bands). In this case the price may grow to 2-week maximums at 1.1890.

    Support levels: 1.1700, 1.1590, 1.1500.
    Resistance levels: 1.1755, 1.1825, 1.1890.

    Trading tips

    In the current situation short positions should be opened after the price consolidates below 1.1700 with targets at 1.1655 and 1.1590. Stop-loss should be placed at 1.1740.

    USD/JPY: yen is under pressure

    Current trend

    The pair started the week with growth to the level of 109.65. Although initial GDP data of Japan for Q2 2017 showed growth (from 1.5% to 4.0% YoY and from 0.3% to 1.0% MoM), yen is weakening. It is under pressure from July data on industrial output and retail sales in China that were the worst since January 2017.

    The situation in the Japanese economy is also uncertain. The growth of GDP in Q2 2017 was caused by increased internal demand and consumer spending. However, durable goods account for a considerable part of them, which may indicates that the costs are seasonal, and that in the future the tendency for their increase would not preserve and new pressure will be put on the GDP volume.

    Support and resistance

    Technically the price grew above the middle line of Bollinger Bands (109.50) and is aiming at 110.05 (Fibo correction 23.6%). If this level is broken out, growth may continue to 110.80 (gathering of Fibo corrections 23.6% and 38.2%) and 111.55 (Fibo correction 50.0%). However, one cannot exclude the reversal and return of the price to August minimums at 108.70. Technical indicators show mixed signals: MACD histogram is reducing in the negative zone, and Stochastic is turning downwards to the overbought zone.

    Support levels: 109.50, 108.70, 108.00.
    Resistance levels: 110.05, 110.80, 111.55, 112.20.

    Trading tips

    In this situation, short positions could be opened below 109.50 with target at 108.70. Stop-loss order may be placed at 109.80.
    If the price consolidates above 110.05, long positions could be opened with target at 110.80, 111.55 and stop-loss at 109.70.

    LiteForex EUR/USD: the pair is trading in the downward channel

    Current trend

    On Thursday the pair tested the level of 1.1700 (Fibonacci correction 23.6%) again, but couldn’t consolidate below it and began to grow after the poor July US Industrial production data publication (the indicator decreased from 0.4% to 0.2%). At the moment the price is trading around the middle line of Bollinger Bands (1.1740) due to controversial factors. EUR is under the pressure of the terrorist acts in Spain, as USD is affected by the conflict in Trump’s administration. The rumors about the chief President economic advisor Gary D. Cohn resign were not confirmed, which slowed the fall of the US currency.

    Yesterday the Head of FRB Robert S. Kaplan mentioned that the politics and investors should be patient and reasonable in waiting for the new interest rate rise. He also said that the balance-sheet reduction process can be started in the nearest future, while it’s better to wait for the stable growth of the inflation before the interest rate rise, which disappointed the market.

    Support and resistance

    Technically the pair is trading within the downward channel and is tending to its upper border at the area of 1.1780 (Fibonacci correction 38.2% for the long term trend). In case of breakout the price can grow to August highs at the level of 1.1880. In case of reversal around 1.1780 the fall to the key support level of 1.1700 (Fibonacci correction 23.6%, Murray ) is possible.

    Support levels: 1.1700, 1.1590, 1.1500.
    Resistance levels: 1.1780, 1.1880, 1.1950.

    Trading tips

    Short positions can be opened at the current price or at the level of 1.1780 with the targets at 1.1700 and 1.1590 from stop loss at around 1.1810.
    If the price is set above the level of 1.1780, long positions will become relevant with the target at 1.1880 and stop loss at 1.1760.

    Support levels: 48.42, 47.55, 46.57.
    Resistance levels: 48.85, 49.69, 50.42.
