Technical analysis of the currency pair AUD/USD on 16/02/2017. The daily chart

General analysis
During this week the price of the currency pair AUD/USD has risen slightly more than 130 points and came close to the support level at 0.7700.

If we consider US dollar in a global market we can note that price for this currency increases in relation to all the main quotes but nevertheless now we see a pause in the growth and soon we expect a correction against the general uptrend.

Recently the price has already approached several times to the level of support at 0.7700 and all the times it was an insurmountable wall for the currency pair and the price could not break it.

Comparing the Stochastic indicator chart with price graph we can see a clear divergence which was formed last Friday. Such trading signal on the daily chart and with and rising market it is quite strong signal to sell the US dollar and it cannot be ignored.

Next few days
Considering the overall situation in the market for the US dollar, price closeness to a significant support level 0.7700 and the presence of divergence in the graph we have all the signals for the opening of sales for AUD/USD.
The general trend is still increasing but today there is the most favorable situation to play on the rollback of the price.

During this week, we are likely to see a decrease to at least 0.7610 or even further to 0.7500.

USD/JPY: Technical Overview during Dollar Holiday

The US dollar rose last Friday against most major currencies ahead of the President's Day long weekend which would end today, but the Japanese yen was stronger than the dollar, so the pair recorded a new low last week at 112.55.

The USD/JPY pair is trading now at 113.10 after it declined to the lowest price last week at 112.55 to retest the broken trend line and rose back again. Now the pair is trading between the demand zone at 111.80 and the resistance area at the SMA at 113.32 so we have to wait for the pair break the SMA and close H4 candle above it to buy the pair. The RSI indicator is giving us a buy signal and so does the stochastic indicator.

The Next Few Days

Based on this analysis we can buy the pair once it breaks the SMA and trades above it - we should keep our first target around the previous top at 114.70 and the second target at 161.8% Fibonacci from the last down wave from 114.92 to 112.59, so our extension percentage will be at 116.20, unless the pair breaks the trend line again and trades below it, in which case we would sell the pair to 109.40 at the 50% fibo from the uptrend wave which started on September 27.

We have to keep an eye out for any economic news that may effect the market such as the FOMC meeting next Wednesday and Unemployment Claims on Thursday.

General analysis
Since the beginning of February the rate for the currency pair EUR/USD has started to decline and now approached to the support level - 1.0550.

However, last week the price reached the 0.7700 resistance level which for almost a year make a serious impact on the price movement.

Also, the price crossed the moving average (14) from top to bottom and successfully entrenched below the line, which also indicates a bearish trend.

We recommend to open short positions on the currency pair AUD / USD with the target points profit taking at levels 0.7570 and 0.7520.

General analysis
During the last 8 trading days, the EUR / GBP currency pair shows a clear growth absolutely without any correction. The growth value was about 280 points. At the moment, the price have closely approached to the resistance at around 0.8700 and the best solution is to take the current profit on long positions.

When receiving a confirmation of the release or level breakdown, we should play in the same direction.
The target profit-fixing points for EUR / GBP on a way down is 0.8550 and 0.8470.

AUD/CAD: fundamental review and forecast

The rates of the AUD/CAD continue in the frames of uptrend which has been formed in the beginning of the year. The canadian dollar is under the pressure of the record low oil prices this year. The price of oil fell for the week from 54 to 48 dollars per barrel for CL/WTI, contrary the forecasts for further stabilization of the market amid reduction of oil production. OPEC continues to say that the countries who joined the Agreement on the reduction of oil abide it in 90%. However, this somehow allows Saudi Arabia to increase oil production. Signals about increasing of oil production coming to the market regularly, and investors react it. In any case, the USA not even going to reduce oil extraction: the number of drilling rigs increases, and hence the volume of oil production will only be increasing. In such conditions, whatever OPEC do, they will not be able to stabilize oil prices.
Positive employment data in Canada, in particular, the increasing of the number of jobs at 15300 against the forecasted 2500, the level of unemployment at 6.6%, against forecasted 6.8%, couldn't change the situation for CAD. The rapid decline in oil prices was too rapid for the canadian currency.
The Australian dollar feels against the canadian more confident.
The market reacted positively to the RBA's decision to leave interest rates unchanged. Yesterday, AUD was further supported by encouraging new statistics on the economy of China, where the volume of investment in basic capital was 8.9%, which is a very high and shows investor's confidence in China's economy, despite the negative aspects, such as data on the trade deficit of China for the first time in 3 years, and decreasing in exports.
On the AUD/CAD chart, we can't see the signs for trend reversal. Oscillator MACD is neutral. Stochastics expects a price correction, and offers to open a short deals against the trend. Such deals may be effective upon short-term trading. In addition, the price correction is expected on the oil market, which can support CAD. But upon the medium-term trading it is better in this situation to open the deals to BUY.

Daily analysis for the currency pair EUR/GBP on 16.03.2017.

General analysis
Currency pair EUR / GBP continues to trade with an upward trend but the price was broken through resistance level 0.8700 and successfully fixed above this level.
Then the price has formed a reverse testing of the level 0.8700, which itself acts as confirmation for further bullish movement on the EUR / GBP pair.
The moving average (14) also confirms the presence of an uptrend. Furthermore yesterday the price pushed up from this moving average, thereby giving us one more signal that the bullish direction of the movement still overcomes the bearish.
However, the chart of the Stochastic indicator shows a decrease, but at the moment both signal lines of the indicator are in the neutral zone so we cannot bet this signal to much.
We recommend to open long positions for the EUR / GBP currency pair with target profit-taking points at 0.8830 and 0.8850.

GBP/CAD Technical Outlook after the CPI

A few minutes ago the CPI figures were released and came out 2.3% higher than expected at 2.1%, as well as higher than the previous data. As a result from the news from the UK the GBP has risen against all currencies. The pair we’ll be talking about today is GBP/CAD which rose by more than 80 pips after the news and is still rising at this moment.

The Currency pair is trading now around 1.6600 which is a key resistance area for several reasons. It’s a psychological level and is around 61.8% Fibonacci from the down wave from 1.7116 to 1.5735 - it is expected to decline from it and resume the down wave again. We have a supply zone at 1.6619 which is center for the bears and sellers; we can sell from there when the following conditions are completed.

The Stochastic indicator has reached the distribution area above 80 level and we are waiting for the 2 lines to cross above this level. The RSI is ahead to 90 level to make the distribution from there too.

The Next Few Days

Based on the analysis above, the pair is in a key resistance and supply area but we can’t sell the pair here. Instead, we have to wait for a bearish candle like a pin bar candle or an engulfing candle at a lower time frame chart like the H4 chart and sell the pair, keeping our first target at 1.6490 and the second one at 1.6400 at the SMA, which is a support level.

We have to be careful about upcoming hot news like the core retail sales today and CPI on Friday from Canada, as well as Carney's (BOE Governor) speech today.
