EURUSD Price Action Analysis - bearish ranging below key reversal Fibo resistance level (adapted from the article)

D1 price is located below 200 day SMA (200 SMA) and 100 day SMA (100 SMA) for the primary bearish market condition with the ranging near the border between the primary bearish and the primary bullish trend on the chart.

  • The price is ranging between ranging between Fibo resistance level at 1.1059 and Fibo support level at 1.0520.
  • The bullish reversal resistance level is 1.1059 Fibo resistance located above 200 SMA on the border between the bearish/bullish area of the daily chart.
  • The bearish reversal support level is 1.0520 Fibo support located far below 100 SMA/200 SMA in the primary bearish area.
  • Intermediate support level for the price to be broken on the way to the key bearish reversal support level is 50.0% Fibo support level at 1.0791.
  • The Euro may be establishing a top against the US Dollar as prices carve out what may turn out to be a bearish Head and Shoulders chart formation. The single currency found resistance below the 1.11 figure having launched a recovery following the ECB rate decision, as expected.”
  • A break below support in the 1.0777-1.0818 area to below will lead with the 38.2% level at 1.0602 as the next target. Alternatively, a reversal above a horizontal pivot at 1.0938 may be targeting with the December 15 high at 1.1060.”



If the price will break 50.0% Fibo support level at 1.0791 so the primary bearish trend will be continuing with Fibo support level at 1.0520 as the next bearish target.
If the price will break Fibo resistance level at 1.1059 from below to above on close daily bar so the reversal of the price movement from the primary bearish to the primary bullish market condition will be started.
If not so the price will be ranging within the levels.

SUMMARY : ranging

 
Sergey Golubev:


  • Recommendation for long: watch close H4 price to break 1.1059 for possible buy trade.
  • Recommendation to go short: watch H4 price to break 1.0802 support level for possible sell trade.
Seems this technical analysis for intra-day price H4 will be valid in the beginning of the next year for example :)

Just look at H4 chart for today - no any key level was broken:


 

As to the EUR/USD price movement in the beginning of 2016 so there are the following key levels:

  • 1.1095 resistance located near 'reversal' Senkou Span line on the border between the bearish and the ranging bullish trend on the weekly chart, and
  • 1.0522 support level located far below Ichimoku cloud in the primary bearish area of the chart.


So, there are 3 scenarios for the price movement in 2016:

  1. Ranging. The price is breaking 1.1095 level to above on close weekly bar. The price will be inside Ichimoku cloud for the ranging condition, and 'reversal' Senkou Span line (which is the border between the primary bearish and the primary bullish trend on the chart) will be broken. Means: the price will be on the primary bullish market condition with the secondary ranging (ranging uptrend).
  2. Ranging. Price is breaking 1.0522 support level to below for the bearish trend to be continuing.
  3. An unlikely scenario. The price is ranging within 1.1095/1.0522 area.

Thus, we can make a forecast for EURUSD movement in 2016 by one word: ranging.

 
Sir, i want to know , upcoming holidays what will effect on major or minor or cross currencies such as GBPAUD, EURNZD. abnormal spreads are possible?
