riki143 Posted November 16, 2016 Posted November 16, 2016 Forex trading plan for Nov. 17 11/16/2016 According to the futures market, the possibility of the Federal Reserve’s interest rates hike in December equals to 94%. The market is so sure as it expects Donald Trump’s spending plans to increase inflation, which in turn will create the need for higher rates in America. Traders will watch the speech of the Fed’s Chair Janet Yellen at 14:00 MT4 time on Thursday expecting her to confirm that the central bank is set to raise rates at December 16 meeting. There will be also speeches from FOMC members Dudley and Brainard. In addition, the United States will release a block of statistical data: building permits, CPI, Philadelphia Fed manufacturing index, unemployment claims and housing starts at 12:30 MT4 time. US 10-year Treasury yields rose on Wednesday providing a boost for the greenback. During the US trading session, however, the US released weaker producer price figures (core PPI fell by 0.2% in October). This may provide a reason for the USD to correct a bit lower during the next sessions. EUR/USD went down for the 8th day in a row. The pair went below 78.6% Fibo of 2015-2016 advance at 1.0740. This level together with 1.0800 is now playing the role of resistance. Decline below the first weekly pivot support at 1.0686 will open the way down towards 1.0520. Euro area’s final consumer inflation for October is due at 09:00 MT4 time. The ECB will release the accounts of its monetary policy meeting. More: https://fxbazooka.com/analytics/11338 Quote
riki143 Posted November 17, 2016 Posted November 17, 2016 GBP/USD & UK Retail Sales for October: Will the bulls gain strength? 11/17/2016 Today at 09:30 GMT we’ll have the British version of Retail Sales for October, as the markets are waiting for an increase to 0.4% from 0.0% revised. Because of current GBP health, it will be interesting to see how was the consumer spending in the UK, which posted a weaker-than-expected number in September. Also, Brexit headlines continue to bring some volatility to the British Pound across the board. Our technical view for GBP/USD at H1 chart is still bearish, but the pair is struggling to consolidate again above the 500 SMA. If the data comes above the expectations, we can see a breakout higher of the 1.2484 level, in order to perform a rally towards the 1.2538 level. However, if the UK retail sales data is weak, one could expect a decline to test Tuesday’s lows. More: https://fxbazooka.com/analytics/11341 Quote
riki143 Posted November 17, 2016 Posted November 17, 2016 EUR/USD: "Hammer" points to local correction 11/17/2016 We've got a “High Wave” on the Daily chart, but this pattern hasn’t been confirmed yet. However, if a confirmation arrives later on, there’ll be an opportunity to have a local upward correction. There’s an unconfirmed “Hammer” and a “Window”, which is still open. So, the pair is likely going to reach the nearest resistance in the short term. If we see a pullback from this level, bears will probably try to deliver another low.

Therefore, the price is likely going to achieve the closest “Window”, which could be a departure point for another bullish price movement. We’ve got a “Shooting Star” and a “Harami”, which both have a confirmation. Meanwhile, the upper “Window” is likely going to act as a resistance. If so, the market is likely going to reach the 21 Moving Average. More: https://fxbazooka.com/analytics/11343 Quote

However, bears are likely going to move on. In this case, we should keep an eye on the next support at 1.0636 as a possible intraday target. Also, there’s an opportunity to have a bullish correction afterwards. It’s likely that a kind of a bearish pattern is developing on the one-hour chart. Therefore, the pair is likely going to achieve a support at 1.0636 shortly. If we see a pullback from this level, bulls will probably try to test a resistance at 1.0710 – 1.0744.

Therefore, the market is likely going to reach a support at 1.2330 in the short term. If a pullback from this line be on the table, bulls are likely going to deliver an upward movement in the direction of a resistance at 1.2621 – 1.2677. The previously broken uptrend is acting as a support. So, the price is likely going to achieve a support at 1.2399 – 1.2351 soon.

riki143 Posted November 17, 2016 Posted November 17, 2016 Morning brief for November 17, 2016 11/17/2016 USD/JPY spearheaded on Wednesday following the BOJ’s open market operation. The Bank committed itself to buy unlimited amounts of JGBs of specific maturities in September. Today we witnessed the first shot of the BOJ’s yield control policy that resulted in the immediate weakening in the yen. After the BOJ’s operation USD/JPY rolled back from 109.7 (its 5-month high) to 108.54. Now the pair is trading around the 109.00 mark. EUR/USD nudge up earlier this morning to 1.0711 after setting an 11-month low of 1.0666 overnight as US bond yields started to fall. Today’s focus will be on the bunch of statistical data coming from the US (building permits, monthly CPI, Core CPI, unemployment claims, manufacturing index) and on speeches of Fed’s senior officials (Fed’s Char Janet Yellen, Dudley, Brainard). While listening Ms. Yellen, pay attention to her comments on the market's election result reaction - including a rise in government bond yields; her views on potential economic effects of Trump's expansionary fiscal policies and assessment of the risk of a sharp rise in inflation rates. And, of course, we will be waiting for the confirmation of the Fed’s intention to raise interest rates in December. The possibility of the incoming Federal Reserve’s interest rates hike now is pricing at 94%. NZD/USD was a gainer of the last trading session. It reached 0.7106 having risen from its early low at 0.7033. AUD/USD is consolidating at 0.7480 level. Earlier today we had several data releases from Australia: there were a positive employment change and a lower unemployment rate. But we must admit that changes in figures were negligible, so they didn’t offer support to Aussie. USD/CAD slipped some points in the course of the session. The support line at 1.3416 (100-hour MA) braced the fall of prices. At the present moment, quotes are paving its way towards1,345o level located near the (50-hour MA). It seems that CAD didn’t pay heed to the oil prices drop overnight. Brent oil futures missed some points as soon as EIA report showed a significant build up in the US oil inventories. The data release outweighed hopes for a producers’ output cut following Russia’s comments about a possible meeting with Saudi Arabia. More: https://fxbazooka.com/analytics/11348 Quote

riki143 Posted November 17, 2016 Posted November 17, 2016 Eurozone political risk calendar and EUR/USD forecasts 11/17/2016 EUR/USD was weakening for eight consecutive days following the US presidential election outcome. Many analysts believe that the euro will continue to move downwards with some reoccurring rebounds. There are several fundamental reasons for such forecast: widening the US – Eurozone interest rate differentials; an anticipation of Trump’s expansionary fiscal policies in par with a faster pace of Fed hikes; the ECB will favor the euro weakening until it becomes disorderly; troubled political circumstances in the euro area. Just look at the European political calendar. You will see that next year and the end of this year will be rather turbulent and grotty for the Eurozone. The pair rose today on the slowing pace of the US Treasuries yields. It could be viewed as a short-term correction. The overall sentiment for the euro is still “bearish”.

The active wave (iii) started when the pair reversed down from the resistance level 1.0660 (lower boundary of the strong resistance zone, which has been reversing the price from May). The resistance zone near the resistance level 1.0660 was strengthened by the upper daily Bollinger Band.

riki143 Posted November 17, 2016 Posted November 17, 2016 Fundamental analysis for GBP/USD 11/17/2016 GBP/USD rose mainly on the upbeat retail sales report released earlier today. As soon as the High Court announced its decision on the legality of “Brexit” traders warmed to sterling having stopped to sell it disorderly. Now the market awaits a decision of the Supreme Court to confirm their “bullish” sentiments towards GBP. Morgan Stanley believes that the “Brexit” process might be delayed as the UK government may need to pass the Great Repeal bill before triggering Article 50. It should take lots of time as the law-making process in the UK usually, proceed at snail’s pace. Next week traders will keep in focus the Autumn Statement. According to Financial Times, Philip Hammond, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, will have to admit the largest deterioration in British public finance since 2011. This may send the pound down. Some analysts, however, believe that the market’s reaction to the Autumn Statement should be limited, as it is already aware of the negative impact of “Brexit”. For example, BNP Paribas is still long GBP/USD targeting 1.2924. According to BNPP’s analysts, the pound has a room for the short-term appreciation with BoE maintaining its neutral monetary stance and with private sector’s anticipations of a higher inflation rate. But in the longer-term GBP/USD should fall again with the rising uncertainty over the US future and USD strengthening. More: https://fxbazooka.com/analytics/11359 Quote

However, if we see a pullback from this level, there’ll be an opportunity to have an upward movement in the direction of a resistance at 1.0673 – 1.0710. The price faced a support at 1.0616. At the same time, there’s a possible bearish pattern, so the pair is likely going to continue falling down towards the next support at 1.0600 – 1.0572.

It should be interesting to see what will be the reaction from the ECB leader after CPI in the Eurozone and maybe we can hear something about Donald Trump’s victory as the new United States president. With that being said, Draghi’s speech could bring some volatility to the markets. Our technical analysis for EUR/USD at daily chart remains strongly bearish, as the pair already refreshed its lowest level in nearly one year. There is also a moving average crossover ongoing and eventually, the pair could plummet to test the support zone of 1.0561, which is a very strong barrier for sellers across the board. However, to the upside, if EUR/USD manages to break higher the 1.0641 level, then it can test the 1.0750 zone. More: https://fxbazooka.com/analytics/11364 Quote
