GBP/USD: "Triple Top" points to bear's reappearance 8/5/2016 The price was consolidating along a resistance at 1.3339, which ended up by the massive decline. However, bears faced a support at 1.3119, which led to the current local upward movement. So, sellers are likely going to move on. The main intraday target is a support at 1.3015 – 1.2945. Considering a possible pullback from this area, an bullish correction becomes possible later on. We’ve got a “Triple Top” pattern, which led to the yesterday’s dramatically fast downward price movement. Therefore, it’s likely to see a local bullish correction during the day, because there’s a pullback from the nearest support at 1.3116. At the same time, bears are so strong, which makes possible an achievement of the next support at 1.3071 – 1.3017. More: https://new.fxbazooka.com/analytics/9934

EUR/USD: bears dominating after "V-Top" pattern 8/5/2016 There’s a “V-Top” pattern, so the price is trading near the Moving Average lines. Therefore, it’s likely that the market is going to decline towards a support at 1.1083 – 1.1059 in the short term. If we see a pullback from this area, a correction price movement will be on the table, so we should keep an eye on the closest resistance at 1.1222 – 1.1235. The price has faced a support on the 89 Moving Average, so we’ve got a local flat in progress. Under these circumstances, the pair is likely going to get a resistance on the 34 Moving Average during the day. However, if a pullback from this line happens afterwards, there’ll be an opportunity to have a decline towards a support at 1.1145 – 1.1032. More: https://new.fxbazooka.com/analytics/9933

EUR/USD: bearish wave [iii] going to start soon 8/5/2016 Wave was possible ended yesterday, so there’s time for a local correction. Previously, wave 4 finished in a form of a “Double Three”, so we’ve got a pullback from 4/8 Murrey Math Level (P=200).

EUR/USD is stuck in the dead area 8/5/2016 On the daly chart the pair keeps moving in line with scenario we've outlined in the previous article: the recoil down from the upper border of the descending trend channel (painted in red) and the following growth towards 1.1175. If the bulls manage to reach this level and then renew July high, the pair will likely move towards 1.1260 and 1.1340. On the other hand, inability to hold above 1.1114 will show that the buyers are weak. On H1 EUR/USD formed descending trend channel. The nearest support levels are at 1.1114 and 1.1082. Look for resistance near 1.1170 and 1.1235. More: https://new.fxbazooka.com/analytics/9928

USD/JPY & US NFP July Release: It's time for greenback's bulls? 8/5/2016 Today at 12:30 GMT will be released the US Non-Farm Employment change, where the markets are expecting a decrease from 287K to 180 for July's reading. However, last month's data was very positive and Wednesday's US ADP data gave some hints that we could see another positive NFP release today. During the week, some Fed's officials have been talking about the good shape that US economy is having nowadays and following a “muted” tone from FOMC minutes, traders will be highly expecting this release. Our technical overview for USD/JPY at H4 chart is calling for further declines, as we have been seeing a bearish consolidation below the 200 SMA, after a failed breakout above that dynamic resistance offered by the moving average. There is a critical support placed around the 100.35 level, where we could expect a breakout only if the US NFP is weaker than expected and eventually it can make new “post-Brexit” lows across the board. The bullish scenario can be calling for a very strong support around the 100.35 level, that could give fresh momentum to the pair in order to rally towards weekly's highs.

GBP/USD & BoE Interest Rate Decision: Will the downside pressure return to the Sterling? 8/4/2016 Today at 11:00 GMT will be released the BoE interest rate decision, where the markets are expecting a rate cut by 25 bp. Currently, the rates stand at 0.50% and that could give the bears enough momentum to push lower the Cable towards the post-Brexit lows. 30 minutes later will speak the BoE's Governor Carney, where the markets will be closely watching, as it's speech could give us further hints in terms of economic measures for the United Kingdom in the mid-term, following the Brexit's outcome. The technical picture for GBP/USD at H4 chart is still very bearish and also, it's trapped inside the post-Brexit range. A pullback is expected around the 1.3358 level towards the support zone of 1.2845 if the BoE's stance is dovish than expected and the central bank decides to cut rates. However, if there are no major actions by the BoE today, then we can see a slight rise and test the 1.3615 level, where the 38.2% retracement zone (from pre-Brexit's peak) is placed.

Moreover, there’s a “Shooting Star” at the local high, which has been confirmed by the “Three Line Strike” pattern.

There are no reasons for a reversal to the upside, just a correction is possible. We’ll be looking for entry points to add to the short position at 101.80. Other resistance levels are at 102.50 and 103.50. Below 100.80 the next target will be at 100.00. AUD/USD: The pair was stopped by April-July resistance line in the 0.7635.
