MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

EURUSD has reached a significant support level at 1.2973 (S2) it bounced from that level and rose subsequently to form a high at 1.3159 (R1). A break above that level would suggest a target of 1.3216 (R2) and a further rise will then focus on the next target at 1.3284 (R3). On the downside, if the price does manage to stay below current resistance level1.1.3159 (R1) we can expect retesting of 1.3080 (S1). A further decline will then bring focus to the next support level at 1.2973 (S2) a strong technical support level. We expect the price to retest first resistance level and then to move upwards targeting first and second resistance level. Look for long positions in today trading session with a stop los below 1.2973 (S2).

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

After the pair formed a bottom at 1.2973 (S4) – Fibonacci 50% (daily chart), the EURUSD was able to break above yesterday’s resistance at 1.3139 (S1) and we now expect the price to find a strong resistance around 1.3300 – February high. A break above the first resistance level of 1.3237 (R1) would suggest a target of 1.3284 (R2). On the other hand if the price fails to break above 1.3237 (R1), we can expect the pair to retest 1.3139 (S1). We should expect a correction downwards towards 1.3139 (S1) and then a continuation of the uptrend.

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

The GBPUSD continued to rise from 1.5654 (S4) and reached a high yesterday at 1.5885 (R1). It seems the pair is heading for a correction and it will retest the first support level of 1.5815 (S1). A break below that level would suggest a target of 1.5786 (S2) and a further decline will then focus on the next target at 1.5735 (S3). On the upside, if the price rebounds from the first support level 1.5815 (S1) we can expect retesting of 1.5885 (R1). A further rise will then bring focus to the next resistance level at 1.5928 (R2) a strong technical resistance level – year high.

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

The USDJPY continued to rise from 76.02 (S4) and reached a high on Friday at 79.87 (R1) a strong resistance level as it has been retested 3 times in the past (March, April, June 2011). If the bulls do not overcome that level then we expect the price to move downwards for a correction and then to continue its upwards move. A break below first support level would suggest a target of 78.19 (S2) and a further decline will then focus on the next target at 76.53 (S3). On the upside, if the price rebounds from the second support level 78.19 (S2) we can expect retesting of 79.87 (R1).Sustained rise will be then indicating second objective at 80.23 (R2) resistance level.

The yen advanced 0.4 percent versus Europe’s common currency to 105.09 as of 9:00 a.m. in Tokyo. The dollar climbed 0.3 percent to $1.3206 per euro. The U.S. currency was little changed at 79.58 yen. USD/JPY could be in consolidation mode just below the 79.90 zone, which is the recent 6-month high recorded during Monday’s Asian session. EUR/JPY was weaker at the start of trading on Tuesday. Last seen quoting at 105.20 from 105.42 late Monday in NY. GBP/USD is weak in early Asia as the greenback is well bid across the board as risk aversion begins to take hold. The Pound has slid to a session low of 1.5820.

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

EURUSD made a sharp move upwards and confirmed our recommendations for long positions hitting successfully the first resistance level at 1.3291 (R1) .We except the price to continue its upward move as it is under bullish pressure at the moment and it seems to be heading towards 1.3322 (R2) a strong technical resistance. A proper confirmation for the long positions will be when the price manages to break above the first resistance level of 1.3291 (R1). If the price fails to break above first level then it will probably move towards the first support level 1.3182 (S1) for a retest and then to continue its upwards move.

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

USDJPY formed a high at 79.87 (R1) as we previously mentioned in yesterday’s analysis as it has reached a very crucial level that has been retest 3 times in the past. A break above that level, it will indicate an upward break out from the trading range of the weekly chart. This is very important as it will determine our bias towards the next trading sessions. Overall, a break above that level we will look to confirm an uptrend as the outlook continues to be positive for the USDJPY. A proper confirmation for the long positions will be when the price manages to break above the first resistance level of 79.87 (R1). A stop loss should be placed below 79.28 (above S1).

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

EURUSD fell yesterday and formed a low just 12 pips away from our support level 1.3182 confirming our scenario for retesting that level and then continuing an upward move. The euro has been trapped in a sideways direction between 1.3291 (R1) and 1.3182 (S1). If we switch to a higher timeframe (4 hours or daily) we can observe a double top and this is a signal for a trend reversal. The EURUSD whipsawed traders on February, breaking higher, breaking lower, trading sideways and lastly forming a double top giving signs for trend reversal. Our recommendation for today’s trading session is no position until we get a clearer trend direction.

Now the price has found a strong support at 1.5762, if it falls below this level we can expect the price to continue its downward move as it is under bearish pressure and it seems to be heading towards our support levels. This bearish pressure can also be confirmed by the moving averages that have turned bearish and the price is using them as a strong resistance. Look out for a correction upwards towards 1.5807 (R1) and then the continuation of the downward move.

Right now it seems that the pair is gaining momentum to the upwards and we can expect probably price will be targeting at resistance at 13291. Further rise above this level will then focus on 1.3322 (R2) and if EURUSD holds its momentum, rise might be limited at 1.3375 (R3). On the downside, if the price declines below 1.3211 (S1) we can expect the price to retest at 1.3182 (S2).

Now it seems that the pair formed a strong support at 1.5649 (S1) a strong technical and psychological support level that it has been retested 2 times in February but price didn’t manage to break below it.On the other hand a break below 1.5649 (S1) we will then expect the price to retest 1.5625 (S2) and then further decline will then approach towards 1.5576 (S3). Look for long positions as far as the price is moving above 1.5649 (S1) with a stop loss close to 1.5625 (S2).

The outlook for USDJPY continues to be positive as it successfully managed to stay above our support levels and its clear that it is moving upwards. This is supported by the fact that the 10 and the 20 Moving Averages are giving as a strong support in the uptrend as both of them are providing bullish signals. We remain bullish on the pair until we see a definite signal for correction or retracements and even for reversal. A proper confirmation for the long positions will be when the price manages to break above the first resistance level of 80.40 (R1). A stop loss should be placed above 79.35 (S2).

EURUSD fell and find a strong support at 1.3366 a level that we have recommended using for long positions targeting resistance levels. After the price touched that level it moved upwards gaining successfully another one trading session and confirming our recommendations for long positions at the current support!! Now, it seems that the price is moving upwards and is heading towards the first resistance to retest it again. A break above that level will be suggesting target at 1.3542 (R2) and further rise will be limited to 1.3586 (R3). On the other hand if price manage to stay below 1.3486 (R1) we will then expect the price to retest 1.3366 (S1) and then further decline will then approach towards 1.3293 (S2).

After that the price rebounded and now it seems that it is moving upwards to retest our resistance level at 1.5898 (R1) a technical and psychological level. A break above 1.5898 will continue its upward move targeting the next resistance level at 1.5934 (R2). On the other hand, a break below 1.5809 (S1) would suggest a target of 1.5762 (S2) and a further fall will then focus on the next target at 1.5700 (S3).

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

USDJPY recovers after hitting 80.11 just 20 pips from our support line, opening our long positions at 80.40 and failing to hit our yesterday target, profiting only +15 pips. After the price formed a top at 81.66 (R2) a significant technical level, fell and formed a strong support at 80.00 level. A break below that it will indicate a reversal in trend (intraday) as a break above 81.66 (R1) it will indicate the continuation of the uptrend trend line. I recommend staying on the side lines to await a clearer trend direction – No position.

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

EURUSD after price formed top at 1.3486 (R1), price continued in sideways move between 1.3366 support and resistance at 1.3486. Right now it seems EURUSD is gaining momentum and we can expect probably price will be breaking above first resistance at 1.3486 (R1). Further rise above this level will then focus on 1.3542 (R2) resistance and if EURUSD holds its momentum, rise might be limited at 1.3586 (R3). On the other hand if the price manages to stay below 1.3486 we expect the pair to retest first support and then continue its sideways move.

We except the price to continue its upward move as it is under bullish pressure at the moment (both of our MA are bullish) and it seems to be breaking above 1.5937 (R1) a strong technical and psychological level as this level has been retested again in the past (beginning of February) without succeeding to break above it. A proper confirmation for the long positions will be when the price manages to break above the first resistance level of 1.5937 (R1). A stop loss should be placed above 1.5809 (S2).

A break above the first resistance level of 80.78 (R1) would suggest a target and retest of 81.66 (R2). If the price holds its momentum on the upside we can expect a further rise towards 81.97 (R3). On the other hand, if the price does not manage to break above 80.78 (S1) we can expect the pair to retest support at 80.00 (S1) and a further fall will be limited to 79.35 (S2).

Yesterday the price was able to break above 80.78 (S1), retested it, and now is moving above that level. Our recommendation for today’s trading session is we open long positions only when the price breaks above 81.66 (R1). As far as the price is below that level we remain flat until we get a clearer direction of the price.
