"Fort Financial Services"- fundamental and technical analysis 24.02.2015 Fundamental analysis After reaching the Friday "truce" between Athens and the creditors on the Greece loans issue for four months under the guarantee of performing reforms, the market focused its attention on the J. Yellen two-day speech , the Federal Reserve governor which will be held on February 24 and 25. Yellen will announce her position to the economy state and maybe she will give a hint about rate saving to normalize monetary policy, followed by the rates increase. If the Yellen speech result will be the US economy upward trend acknowledgement and the number of pessimistic characteristics is not going to be large - it will be a good signal to the fact that the Fed remains on the way to raise interest rates in the middle of this year. If this happens, the single currency and the yen clearly come out of the corridors in which they have already been the significant period of time and will continue to fall against the US dollar. Difference in opinions, concerning the Bank of Japan and the Federal Reserve monetary policy is a negative factor for the yen. It is also important for the yen, but other additional factor will be the ECB government bonds real foreclosure which will expand its balance sheet and reduce the single currency price. Technical analysis Euro (EUR) General overview The Eurozone finance ministers finally reached a compromise on the Greek debt. It is expected that the draft agreement will help to prolong the financial assistance program for 4 to 6 months with no obligations on the Greece part to comply with the austerity measures on which the Euro group insisted earlier.

Trading recommendations The potential increase target is the resistance level of 1.1400.

Against this positive background, traders once again started to increase long positions within the US dollar and we have seen the dollar rapid quotations growth. Then there was a consolidation in the majors pairs. The present-day political news could support the US dollar - the Fed representatives Plosser and Lockhart gave "hawkish" tone speeches which can be judged according to the words about the unemployment increase that will not cause anxiety and the US CB is approaching the moment when it will be difficult to justify keeping interest rates at the same level. The Bank of Japan continues to show confidence in the inflation targets achievement in 2015. The Central Bank will not intend to use the additional easing measures if there is the inflation decrease because of the falling oil prices. According to the Bank of Japan representative Iwate, the trending prices level shows a steady growth which will lead the inflation to the target level of 2% in 2015 fiscal year.

"Fort Financial Services"- fundamental and technical analysis 06.02.2015 Fundamental analysis Yesterday the pair EUR/USD showed a growth after a moderate decline - bulls took profits on the long positions after this week strong growth. Macroeconomic data showed a mixed background – the euro zone unemployment positive release was replaced by the US service sector ISM business activity positive one. The sales within the pair EUR/GBP cross-rate put pressure on the euro after the UK positive publication. Nevertheless the pair grew after a decrease. Yesterday the British pound enjoyed a steady demand. The UK services sector PMI index showed a growth to the level of 57.2%. It is also worth noting that the British indicator was able to bypass the same US indicator in January despite the fact that the ISM has reported the non-productive sphere increase. Against this positive background, the pair GBP/USD rose up at the end of the day. The US macroeconomic statistics which was published on Wednesday can be regarded as negative. The ADP and ISM employment releases came out worse than the forecasted medians that with the manufacturing sector employment decrease cannot allow us to count on strong non-farm data output. The services sector business activity showed growth compared to the previous month, but the industrial sector weakness signals about the economic growth slowdown. Against this background, bears opened short positions within the pair USD/JPY that caused the quotations decrease. The pair increased at the end of the trading day. Euro (EUR) General overview The December US trade balance can disappointed traders with its weak data. First, the dollar revaluation makes the US goods less competitive which is a negative factor for exports. Second, we observed the traditional trade deficit increase in December. Against this background, we can expect the data slightly worse than the forecasted medians. After buyers broke through the level of 1.1400 we expected a good corrective wave upwards within the euro. However, the reverse support level breakthrough of 1.1400 led to the correction completion. After the level of 1.1300 testing the pair rebounded upwards and closed the trades above the level of 1.1400. The price is finding the first support at 1.1400, the next one is at 1.1300. The price is finding the first resistance at 1.1520, the next one is at 1.1590. There is a confirmed and a weak buy signal. The price is above the Cloud and it is above the Chinkou Span. The Tenkan-sen shows an upward movement and the Kijun-sen shows a horizontal movement and form a “Daed Cross”. The upward movement will be until the price is above the Cloud. The MACD indicator is in a positive territory. The price is growing. Trading recommendations The potential decrease targets are two support levels of: 1.1400, 1.1300, 1.1170. Pound (GBP) General overview Despite the UK rapid inflation decline – we should not expect surprises from the Bank of England in terms of monetary policy changes. All the negative predictions have already been laid in the current market price and against this background the traders’ attention will be focused on the US statistics. The resistance level of 1.5200 was tested. The test led to the level breakthrough was followed by the rapid price growth. The resistance level of 1.5300 was broken upwards. The price is finding the first support at 1.5300, the next one is 1.5200. The price is finding the first resistance at 1.5400, the next one is at 1.5510. There is a confirmed and a strong buy signal.

The MACD histogram is in a positive territory. The price is growing. Trading recommendations The pair can grow to the resistance level of 1.5400. After breaking 1.5400 the buyers may go to 1.5510. Yen (JPY) General overview The US moderately negative macroeconomic trade balance statistics with the technical correction which we observe in the USDX dollar index shows the bearish sentiment predominance. However, the economic slowdown in Japan as well as the world's leading stock markets growth will not allow the yen to strengthen significantly. The price movement is changeable at the level of 117.00 which first makes its way downwards and then upwards. During the breaks the trade volumes are in the reduced zone. The price is finding the first support at 117.00, the next one is at 115.80. The price is finding the first resistance at 118.00, the next one is at 119.20.

"Fort Financial Services"- fundamental and technical analysis 05.02.2015 Fundamental analysis The dollar exchange rate stabilized after the most powerful decrease for the last year that was caused by the commodity producing countries currency growth. The day was not rich with important macroeconomic statistics that suggests the beginning of the global dollar correction. We should also mention the bullish rally in two key commodity markets assets: copper increased by 3.8%, the Brent oil rose up by 4.7%. At the same time, it is more difficult for the Fed officials to ignore external factors and other central banks actions. The euro is decreasing against the dollar after a significant increase during the previous session, supported by hopes for the Greek debt situation compromise. The Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras assured international lenders that he did not want to create conflicts in Europe. The pound also strengthened against the dollar. The trend is developing in favor of the pound on the bond market: the UK 10-year bond yields are growing in relation to the US and German securities which is a bullish factor. The dollar has grown against the yen due to the US and the Japanese stock market bond yields increase. Technical analysis Euro (EUR) General overview The first medium-term correction phase is in the midst of its peak and now it is fatal to open the "shorts" within the euro. The traders’ attention will be focused on the December euro zone retail sales publication. The retail sector sales decrease was traditionally observed in the Old World last month, but the Germany and France consumer spending growth cannot allow us to count on the weak data. The seven week trading session downward channel was broken through upwards. The level breakthrough of 1.1400 was at the increased volume. The price is finding the first support at 1.1400, the next one is at 1.1300. The price is finding the first resistance at 1.1520, the next one is at 1.1590. There is a confirmed and a weak buy signal. The price is above the Cloud and it is above the Chinkou Span. The Tenkan-sen shows an upward movement and the Kijun-sen shows a horizontal movement. The upward movement will be until the price is under the Cloud. The MACD indicator is in a positive territory. The price is correcting. Trading recommendations We suppose the pair will consolidate around the level of 1.1300. Pound (GBP) General overview Markit Economics will publish the UK service sector business climate data. The unemployment reduction with the UK average wage increase can allow us to count on the index growth compared to the previous month. In this regard, the British pound can get some support. The support level of 1.5015 stopped the pound decline against the US dollar for the second time. The short-term level testing was followed by the price upward rebound amid the increased trading volumes. The resistance levels of 1.5100 and 1.5200 were broken. The price is finding the first support at 1.5200, the next one is 1.5100. The price is finding the resistance at 1.5300. There is a confirmed and a strong buy signal. The price is above the Cloud and it is above the Chinkou Span. The Tenkan-sen shows an upward movement and the Kijun-sen shows a horizontal movement. The upward movement will be until the price is under the Cloud. The MACD histogram is in a positive territory. The price is growing. Trading recommendations The potential growth target is the resistance level of 1.5300. Yen (JPY) General overview Despite the fact that we saw a steady growth in the world's leading stock markets which is a positive factor for the pair dollar/yen. However, the US dollar global correction with the service sector moderately negative ISM release will put pressure on bulls. The strong support level of 117.00 breakthrough was not so long. Buyers bought out the price, returning the trade above the level of 117.00 which still plays the role of a reference support. The price is finding the first support at 117.00, the next one is at 115.80. The price is finding the first resistance at 118.00, the next one is at 119.20. There is a confirmed and a strong sell signal. The price is under the Cloud and it is under the Chinkou Span. The Tenkan-sen and the Kijun-sen show a horizontal movement. The downward movement will be until the price is under the Cloud. The MACD indicator is in a neutral territory. The price is decreasing. Trading recommendations The upward correction target is the level of 118.00. Franc (CHF) General overview The Swiss franc has grown due to the dollar general decline against other major currencies. The statistics played a significant role in it. The US factory orders data showed a decline by 3.4% m/m in December during the session. The price is finding the first support at 0.9150, the next one is at 0.8940. The price is finding the first resistance at 0.9340, the next one is at 0.9540. There is a non-confirmed and a strong buy signal. The price is above the Cloud and it is above the Chinkou Span.

"Fort Financial Services"- fundamental and technical analysis 01.02.2015 Fundamental analysis The US dollar looked quite cheerful amid its main competitors - the dollar index basket (USDX) finished the trading day at the mark of 94.82. The pair EUR/USD has enjoyed moderate demand despite the Eurozone negative statistics. The Germany CPI release pointed out that the Old World largest economy came into deflation. This report indicates that we should not expect pleasant surprises on the Eurozone CPI tomorrow. At the moment the quotes reached the level of 1.1367 after which there was a technical rebound. After the US positive jobless claims release - bears made a powerful attack on the pair GBP/USD. The previous week figure exceeded the traders’ expectations by 43 thousand that allows to count on the labor market positive data release at the beginning of the week. The CRB commodity index has once again showed a downward trend which also supported demand for the US dollar. By the end of the day the pair GBP/USD decreased. Despite the demand for the US corporate bonds with the positive overseas jobless claims release for the last week earlier encouraged bulls cheered for the "longs" opening within the pair USD/JPY, during the day traders systematically built up short positions that allowed to finish the trading day with the quotations decrease. Technical analysis Euro (EUR) General overview Germany came into deflation and now the euro bulls remained without support. Today it is difficult to expect surprises from the Eurozone CPI release. Last week the ECB President Mario Draghi signaled about the risk balance for the first quarter of 2015 shifted towards the negative direction. The euro corrective rise from the support level of 1.1170 turned into the flat framework of 1.1385 - 1.1275. The trade is at the low volumes, still the pair is heading towards the downward channel. The price is finding the first support at 1.1170, the next one is at 1.1040. The price is finding the first resistance at 1.1300, the next one is at 1.1400. There is a confirmed and a weak sell signal. The price is under the Cloud and it is under the Chinkou Span. The Tenkan-sen and the Kijun-sen show a horizontal movement. The downward movement will be until the price is under the Cloud. The MACD indicator is in a negative territory. The price is consolidating. Trading recommendations The approach to the level of 1.1400 may lead to a price rebound down. The potential rebound target is the support levels of 1.1170, 1.1040. Pound (GBP) General overview The main event of the day is the 4th quarter US GDP release. All macroeconomic releases from October to December showed the US economic growth high rate that allows us to rely on the data release better than the consensus forecast. Last week we received the UK GDP data and the quarterly growth by 0.5% will be quite weak amid the US strong growth. The pound corrective growth was stopped by the mark of 1.5200. The mark testing was followed by the consolidation with the following rebounds downwards. The target has already been achieved by the support level of 1.5100 breakthrough, and the level of 1.5015 was tested. The price is finding the first support at 1.5015, the next one is 1.4920. The price is finding the first resistance at 1.5100, the next one is at 1.5200. There is a non-confirmed and a weak sell signal. The price is on the Cloud and it is under the Chinkou Span. The Tenkan-sen shows a downward movement and the Kijun-sen shows a horizontal movement and form a “Dead Cross”. The downward movement will be until the price is under the Cloud. The MACD histogram is in a negative territory. The price is decreasing. Trading recommendations We may expect the fall towards 1.4920 and 1.4800 where the pair may stop, further on we expect a consolidation. Yen (JPY) General overview The traders’ attention will be focused on the Japan inflation release. The strong energy prices decline with the weak consumer demand does not allow us to count on the positive news. The sellers reduced the price to the strong support level of 117.00 amid the very low volume that has already turned the downward trend upwards for four times. The price is finding the first support at 117.00, the next one is at 115.80. The price is finding the first resistance at 118.00, the next one is at 119.20. The price is in the Cloud and it is above the Chinkou Span. The Tenkan-sen and the Kijun-sen show a horizontal movement. The MACD indicator is in a neutral territory. The price is decreasing. Trading recommendations The level of 117.00 retest is more likely to lead to a consolidation. Then we expect the upward movement. Franc (CHF) General overview The franc stopped to suffer losses and started a consolidation while the dollar index has reached the maximum level for the last 10 years amid expectations that the Fed was the only major central bank which was ready to raise interest rates. Additional support for the US dollar caused the US labor market release. The jobless claims have reached the 15 years low. The price is finding the first support at 0.9150, the next one is at 0.8940. The price is finding the first resistance at 0.9340, the next one is at 0.9540. The price is in the Cloud and it is above the Chinkou Span. The Tenkan-sen and the Kijun-sen show an upward movement.

"Fort Financial Services"- fundamental and technical analysis 30.01.2015 Fundamental analysis There was the central event of the week - the US Federal Reserve announced the monetary policy meeting results. In anticipation of this event the major pairs consolidated as traders refrained from active trading. The monetary regulator pointed out to the fact that we should not expect the first rate hike within the federal funds till June. The short-term inflation forecasts have been revised downwards, it was noted the labor market rapid recovery. The FOMC representatives consider the energy prices decrease as a favorable factor for the household expenditure increase that will maintain high economic growth. It should also be noted that the decision to leave interest rates unchanged was unanimous while the FOMC three representatives voted for monetary policy tightening at the meeting in December 2014. Despite the Fed conservative rhetoric, traders were in no hurry to liquidate long positions within the US dollar. The dollar significantly increased only against the pound. Technical analysis Euro (EUR) General overview On the one hand, the Fed has kept the promise of "patience" in relation to the rates increase. This factor is negative for the US dollar. On the other hand, the euro area inflation expectations are much worse than the UK ones. The main event of the day will be the Germany consumer price index data release. Buyers reached the level of 1.1400 amid the reduced volume. The price consolidation near the resistance level of 1.1300 is more likely to serve as a signal for the upward correction reversal. The price is finding the first support at 1.1300, the next one is at 1.1170. The price is finding the first resistance at 1.1400, the next one is at 1.1520. There is a confirmed and a strong sell signal. The price is under the Cloud and it is under the Chinkou Span. The Tenkan-sen and the Kijun-sen show a horizontal movement. The downward movement will be until the price is under the Cloud. The MACD indicator is in a negative territory. The price is consolidating. Trading recommendations The downward movement will be continued. The pair may go to 1.1170 soon. Pound (GBP) General overview Today the UK will not please traders with the positive data and in this regard we can expect the side trend continuation during the day. The fundamental background remains mixed - the FOMC negative pigeon rhetoric for the dollar and the Brent inability to consolidate above the psychological level of $ 50 put pressure on the British pound. Two daily correctional pound growth was stopped by the downtrend channel upper bound of 1.5200. The upper bound testing resulted led to the continued consolidation followed by the decrease under the level of 1.5100. The price is finding the first support at 1.5015, the next one is 1.4920. The price is finding the first resistance at 1.5100, the next one is at 1.5200. There is a non-confirmed and a weak sell signal. The price is under the Cloud and it is under the Chinkou Span.

The price is correcting. Trading recommendations We suppose the pair will go to 1.5015 first. Having overcome the first target the price might go upwards to 1.4920. Yen (JPY) General overview Traders shall focus their attention on the stock market dynamics amid the Japan and the US important macroeconomic statistics. The Fed “patience” lowered the two-year Treasury bond yields below 0.5% and now we can expect the upward trend development. Traders have been testing the strong resistance level of 118.00 for five consecutive days. The short-term breaks are followed by the constant price rebounds downwards. The price is finding the first support at 118.00, the next one is at 117.00. The price is finding the first resistance at 119.20, the next one is at 120.40.

"Fort Financial Services"- fundamental and technical analysis 29.01.2015 Fundamental analysis The US dollar lost some ground against its major competitors - the dollar index basket (USDX) finished the trading day at the mark of 94.20. The pair EUR/USD was in demand amid the US durable goods orders negative macroeconomic statistics. The sales declined by 3.4% in December while the market expected growth by 0.6%. We should mention the fact that traders ignored the US strong consumer confidence and new home sales data. Apparently, traders consider that the euro is strongly oversold and liquidated short positions. The UK weak GDP data for the 4th quarter could not encourage bears to open the large number of short positions. The final indicator was 0.5% that is slightly below the traders’ expectations. The manufacturing sector and the service sector weakness have had a significant negative impact on the UK economic growth. The pair USD/JPY was under pressure amid the profit-taking on global stock markets long positions. However, after the US positive new buildings sales and consumer confidence releases we saw steady demand for the US dollar. It is worth noting the Conference Board report which showed the private consumption growth up to the level of 102.9 p. in January. Nevertheless the pair slightly fell at the end of the trades, but did not exit the range. Technical analysis Euro (EUR) General overview Undoubtedly, this week the key event is the US Federal Reserve meeting. The US 10-year bond yields are at the level of 1.81%, indicating the inflation reduction in the short term. The euro is consolidating after it was actively correcting against the US dollar, rebounding from the support level of 1.1170. The formed price increase is not supported by the trade volumes. The price is finding the first support at 1.1300, the next one is at 1.1170. The price is finding the first resistance at 1.1400, the next one is at 1.1520. There is a confirmed and a strong sell signal. The price is under the Cloud and it is under the Chinkou Span. The Tenkan-sen shows an upward movement and the Kijun-sen shows a downward movement. The downward movement will be until the price is under the Cloud. The MACD indicator is in a negative territory. The price is consolidating. Trading recommendations The approach to the level of 1.1400 may lead to a price rebound down. The potential rebound target is the support levels of 1.1300, 1.1170. Pound (GBP) General overview Traders ignored the UK weak economic growth release which jeopardizes the bearish trend development. In this regard, the statements made by the Fed last night will determine the pair GBP/USD future dynamics. The support level of 1.5015 stopped the pound downward trend. The formed correction will enable buyers to raise the price to the daily resistance level of 1.5200. The price is finding the first support at 1.5100, the next one is 1.5015. The price is finding the first resistance at 1.5200, the next one is at 1.5300. There is a non-confirmed and a weak buy signal. The price is above the Cloud and it is above the Chinkou Span.

Yen (JPY) General overview Quotations decline below the level of 118.00 should be used to build up long positions. The commodity market sales with the relatively low wages growth rate in 2014 indicate the inflationary pressure compression in the United States for the first quarter of this year. Having not reached the level of 119.20, the correctional price growth stopped above the level of 118.00, going to a consolidation. The price is finding the first support at 117.00, the next one is at 115.80. The price is finding the first resistance at 118.00, the next one is at 119.20.

"Fort Financial Services"- fundamental and technical analysis 27.01.2015 Fundamental analysis The US dollar stopped its winning streak. Earlier the index dollar basket (USDX) finished the trading day at the mark of 95.00. The ECB large-scale incentives program led to the euro considerable sales and after the German manufacturing sector business climate negative release the bearish EUR/USD trend has accelerated. The Greece elections results also had a negative impact on the euro exchange rate. Nevertheless the pair slightly increased on Monday. The pair GBP/USD was not able to get support from the UK sudden strong retail sales release. The retail sales rose by 0.4% in December while the consensus forecast predicted its growth by 0.6%. The average earnings growth and the unemployment reduction have a positive impact on the UK consumers. However, despite this positive factor - the British pound was hardly able to demonstrate its growth near the resistance level of 1.5100 which indicates the strong sellers’ presence that holds back the bulls’ onslaught. After the three days growth in the world's leading stock markets bulls took profits on the long positions that supported demand for the "safe haven" yen. It should also be noted that there was demand for the US high-tech assets which is a positive factor for the stock market. Technical analysis Euro (EUR) General overview The new trading week began with a gap fallowed by a slight correction. The decrease was amid the parliamentary elections were held on Sunday in Greece. The Athens radical policy change is able to cause severe volatility and hurt the euro. In the first half of the day the traders ‘attention will be focused on the Germany business climate publication from the IFO institute. There was the downward channel lower bound breakthrough near 1.1400. The fact that the price left the channel limits, where it has been for six weeks, indicates the bearish trend strengthening. The pair tested the level of 1.1170 and rebounded upwards. The price is finding the first support at 1.1170, the next one is at 1.1040. The price is finding the first resistance at 1.1300, the next one is at 1.1400. There is a confirmed and a strong sell signal. The price is under the Cloud and it is under the Chinkou Span. The Tenkan-sen shows a downward movement and the Kijun-sen shows a horizontal movement. The downward movement will be until the price is under the Cloud. The MACD indicator is in a negative territory. The price is correcting. Trading recommendations The approach to the level of 1.1300 may lead to a price rebound down. The potential rebound target is the support levels of 1.1170, 1.1040. Pound (GBP) General overview The traders ‘disregard towards the UK retail sales positive release points out to the strong bearish trend. Despite the fact that quarterly sales showed maximum growth over the past 12 years - the British pound was hardly able to consolidate near the resistance level of 1.5100. There was the level breakthrough of 1.5100 which currently stands as the strong resistance. It is worth noting that the level breakthrough of 1.5100 was amid the low volumes. The price is finding the first support at 1.5015, the next one is 1.4920. The price is finding the first resistance at 1.5100, the next one is at 1.5200.

The downward movement will be until the price is under the Cloud. The MACD histogram is in a negative territory. The price is correcting. Trading recommendations We believe the growth will be continued now. The first targets are the levels of 1.5200 and 1.5300. Yen (JPY) General overview The December Japan trade balance shall not support bears very much. The Japanese yen devaluation and the seasonal factor indicate the trade deficit reduction. However, the industrial production weakness cannot allow us to rely on the strong export growth. In this regard, the data can be expected at the level of consensus forecast. There was the resistance level of 118.00 breakthrough which is now followed by the growing prices. The price is finding the first support at 118.00, the next one is at 117.00. The price is finding the first resistance at 119.20, the next one is at 120.40. There is a confirmed and a strong buy signal. The price is above the Cloud and it is above the Chinkou Span.

"Fort Financial Services"- fundamental and technical analysis 26.01.2015 Fundamental analysis The main last week event was the ECB's monetary policy meeting results announcement. There was only one question on the agenda - what the amount of incentives would be? During the week there were various rumors - the numbers ranged from 500 billion euro to $ 1 trillion euro. Those traders who expected the maximum level turned out to be right. The Eurozone monetary regulator decided to purchase assets in the amount of 60 billion euro starting with this year March. Thus, the ECB balance will be increased by 1.08 trillion euro till September 1, 2016. Financial markets have reacted to the news as it was forecasted: the euro, the pound and the Japanese yen came under a sales wave. Stock markets, on the contrary, reacted positively to the QE introduction by the Eurozone monetary authorities. Last week till its decline the pound was supported by the unexpectedly strong data and finally grew. The UK retail sales rose up by 0.4% m / m in December 2014 while analysts forecasted a decline by 0.6%. The renewed wages growth has a positive impact on consumer sentiment and spending that helps to offset the negative impact on the economy from the euro zone part which is experiencing deflation and growth slowdown. Technical analysis Euro (EUR) General overview The ECB announced all key milestones and now we can expect the moderate euro quotations decline before the Federal Reserve meeting on January 28. The Eurozone manufacturing sector business activity index rose to the level of 51 in January compared to 50.6 in December. These data coincided with economists' forecasts.

The price is finding the first support at 1.1170, the next one is at 1.1040. The price is finding the first resistance at 1.1300, the next one is at 1.1400.
