Daily Technical Analysis
7th April 2014
Gold
Summary
Friday Gold continued to trade higher as the price action bounced off Fibonacci support and closed well above the 8 period daily moving averages.
Market overview
Gold continues to trade in a daily uptrend following the breach of the 1267.99 level being the swing high of the 10th December. The test of the large downward sloping trend line adds impetus to the current positive swing bias. Furthermore we have witnessed a large multi month double bottom forming which could indicate a large upside trend reversal is a possibility.
However the weekly time frame continues to point down. That the recent rejection of higher prices has come off a bounce from a downward sloping trend line and Fibonacci resistance level could indicate that the recent rally in Gold is part of a bigger cycle correction that ultimately sends Gold lower.
That Gold has experienced a strong daily time frame correction has pushed the price action into Fibonacci support and the ability or not of Fibonacci support to push Gold higher will give an indication if the bullish daily up trend or the bearish weekly down trend will win this current battle.
Focus on today
This morning Gold has opened quietly as the price action trades at the highs of Friday’s candle range.
Today I am monitoring the price action for Gold to trade up to the 1310.00 level.
Alternatively a failure to sustain higher prices could see Gold trade down to the 1270.00 level.
Oil
Summary
Friday Oil had a strong up day as the price action closed above its averages.
Market overview
Oil continues to trade in a daily uptrend following the breach of the 100.72 level being the swing high of the 24th December. The daily and weekly times both have a positive bias. The recent price activity has seen the price action perform a text book move by trading down to Fibonacci support and from there bouncing higher. However Oil needs to hold above the 97.35 level so as to maintain its daily uptrend.
Focus on today
This morning Oil has opened quietly as the price action trades within Friday’s candle range.
Today I am monitoring the price action for a test 102.20 level being a prior swing high.
Alternatively a failure to sustain higher prices could see Oil trade back down to the 100.00 level.
AUDUSD
Summary
Friday AUDUSD bounce higher off the 8 period daily moving averages as the price action closed above Tuesday’s high.
Market overview
AUDUSD has been trading in a daily uptrend following the breach of the 0.9080 level being the swing high of the 18th February. However the weekly chart continues to trade in a weekly down trend with the price action now trading into the Fibonacci resistance area. That AUDUSD has formed a large inverse head and shoulders pattern it will be interesting to see if either this pattern trades to its upside target which comes in at the 0.9535 level or if Fibonacci resistance will offer a strong barrier to further upside momentum.
Focus on today
This morning AUDUSD has opened quietley as the price action trades at the highs of Friday’s candle range.
I am this morning monitoring the price action for a potential move to the 61.8% Fibonacci resistance level.
Alternatively if AUDUSD fails to sustain higher prices there is a possibility that AUDUSD trades back down to the 8 period daily moving averages.

EURUSD
Summary
Monday EURUSD bounce higher off Fibonacci, trend line and the 1.3670 support level as the price action tested the 8 period moving averages.
Market overview
EURUSD continues to trade in a daily uptrend following the breach of the 1.3741 level being the 24th January swing high. This price action has put the daily time frame in gear with the positive weekly trend. However there has been a recent strong correction which has had the effect of creating a bearish head and shoulders pattern that is marked by the ellipse. The downside target for a completion of the head and shoulders pattern is in the region of the 1.3420 support level.
However as the weekly chart continues to have a positive bias I am monitoring signs for a base to build within the Fibonacci support area.
Focus on today
This morning EURUSD has opened quietly as it trades at the highs of the previous days range.
I am this morning monitoring the price action for a potential test of the 8 period daily moving average and move to the 34 period daily moving averages.
Alternatively if EURUSD fails to sustain higher prices there is a possibility tests trend line support.

Summary
Monday GBPUSD bounced higher off the 1.6570 support level as the price action tested the moving averages.

GBPUSD has traded above the 1.6668 being the prior isolated pivot high. This price activity has effectively changed the daily trend to up and puts it in line with the bullish weekly outlook.
More recently GBPUSD has experienced a strong downside correction and this has had the effect of creating a large converging triangle consolidation pattern. As GBPUSD has bow bounced off Fibonacci support and with the weekly trend pointing up I would expect this triangle pattern when it breaks to trade higher.

USDCHF
Summary
Monday USDCHF experienced a strong downside correction off trend line resistance with the price action ultimatley closing just above the 8 period daily moving
Market overview
USDCHF continues to trade in a negative daily and weekly swing bias but the recent price action is beginning to take on a bullish feel to it. That the bullish inverse head and shoulders pattern has now broken to the upside I am now monitoring the possibility that this pattern reaches its upside target of 0.9080.
However daily and weekly bias does continue to be fixed to the downside therefore shorting rallies is still probably the most logical strategy to adopt. I am therefore monitoring the price action as it tests the downward sloping trend line and Fibonacci resistance for signs of a resumption of the down trend.
Focus on today
This morning USDCHF has opened quietly as it trades below Monday’s candle range.
Today I am monitoring the price action to potentially test of the 8 period daily moving averages and a move down to the 34 period daily moving averages.

GBPUSD
Summary
Friday GBPUSD traded lower as the price action rejected the 1.6795 resistance level which coincided with the prior high of the 17th February.
Market overview
GBPUSD has traded above the 1.6668 being the prior isolated pivot high. This price activity has effectively changed the daily trend to up and puts it in line with the bullish weekly outlook.
Last week’s price activity has as expected, broken the converging triangle to the upside. However Friday’s price action has seen a move back to the converging triangle and the
1.6700 level and 8 period daily moving averages which should offer a level of support. A failure to maintain upside momentum at these levels will put a significant question on the strength of the daily trend.
Focus on today
This morning GBPUSD has opened quietly as the price action trades at the lows of Friday’s candle range.
I am today monitoring the price action for a bounce off the 1.6700 support level.
Alternatively if GBPUSD cannot sustain higher prices could see the price action trade back into the triangle formation.
USDJPY
Summary
Friday USDJPY continued to trade under the 101.70 and at the lows of Thursday’s range.
Market overview
The breach of the 102.83 level being the swing high of the 21st February has effectively changed the daily trend to up and
therefore putting this time frame into gear with the bullish weekly time frame. The recent price action has seen a failure of the
head and shoulders pattern which confirms the current upward momentum. However USDJPY is now experiencing a strong corrective pull back.
A breach of the 101.19 level being the 14th March low would change the daily trend to down.
Focus on today
This morning USDJPY has opened quietly with the price action trading within the previous two days candle range.
Today I am monitoring USDJPY for a test of the 101.19 level being the 14th March low.
Alternatively a failure to sustain lower prices could see USDJPY trade back up to the 34 period moving averages.
USDCHF
Summary
Friday USDCHF continued to trade lower but with greatley reduced momentum.
Market overview
USDCHF continues to trade in a negative daily and weekly swing bias but the recent price action is beginning to take on a bullish feel to it.
That recent 5 day collapse off trend line resistance has invalidated the inverse head and shoulders pattern. I am therefore considering the
break down from trend line and Fibonacci resistance as a resumption of the down trend.
Focus on today
This morning USDCHF has opened quietly as it trades at the lows of Wednesday’s candle range.
Today I am monitoring the price action to potentially move into the direction of the 13th March low.
Alternatively a failure to sustain lower prices could see USDCHF trade back to its averages.
