riki143 Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 EUR/USD: CONFIRMED "DOUBLE TOP" 07:10 23.05.2017 The price faced resistance at 1.1249, so there's a consolidation. Also, we've got a "Double Top" pattern, so the pair is likely going to test the nearest support at 1.1171 - 1.1139 in the short term. If a pullback from this area happens, there'll be an opportunity to have another bullish movement towards resistance at 1.1287 - 1.1307. There's a "Double Top", which has been confirmed. Therefore, bears are likely going to reach support at 1.1160 in the coming hours. At the same time, if we see a pullback from this level, bulls will have an opportunity to achieve resistance at 1.1249 - 1.1279.

riki143 Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 GBP/USD: BEARISH "THORN" 07:12 23.05.2017 There's a consolidation, which is taking place along the 34 Moving Average. In this case, we should keep an eye on support at 1.2945 - 1.2913 as an intraday bearish target. If a pullback from these levels happens, the pair is going to rise in the direction of the next resistance at 1.3057 - 1.3090. We've got a "Thorn" under resistance at 1.3047, so the price is consolidating. The 55 Moving Average is acting as support. Under this circumstances, bears are likely going to reach the closest support at 1.2913, which could be a departure point for an upward price movement towards resistance at 1.2988 - 1.3023.

riki143 Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 EUR/USD: "WINDOW" WAITING FOR BULLS 09:33 23.05.2017 The price has been rising since the last "Hammer" was formed on the lower "Window". There isn't any reversal pattern so far, so the market is likely going to test the upper "Window" in the short term. If any bearish pattern arrives afterwards, there'll be an opportunity to have a downward correction. We've got an "Engulfing", but this pattern hasn't been confirmed yet. Therefore, if a pullback from the closest support happens, bulls are likely going to deliver a new local high.

riki143 Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 USD/JPY: BULLISH "HAMMER" STILL ON THE TABLE. 09:38 23.05.2017 The price is still consolidating in a tight range. However, the last bullish "Hammer" is on the table, so bears are likely going to test the 144 Moving Average soon. If a pullback from this line happens, there'll be an option to have a downward movement towards the nearest support level. The lower "Window" is acting as strong support, so we've got a lot of pullbacks from this level. Also, there's resistance by the 34 Moving Average. In this case, bulls are likely going to test the 89 Moving Average in the coming hours. If we see a pullback from this line, bears will have an opportunity to push the price towards the last low.

In this case, we should keep an eye on 6/8 MM as a local bearish target. Bulls couldn't fixate above 8/8 MM Level, so there's time for a correction. Therefore, wave © of [y] likely finished.

The breakout of this support zone accelerated the active impulse wave 3. USD/CHF is expected to fall to the next sell target at the support level 0.9670 (target price calculate for the completion of the active impulse wave 3).

If the pair closes today near the current levels it will then form the daily Japanese candlesticks reversal pattern Evening Star Doji.

riki143 Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 MORNING BRIEF FOR MAY 24 06:17 24.05.2017 The USD strengthened in Tokyo morning against its major peers due to rising 10-year Treasury note yield climbing 3 basis points overnight. The news that Trump asked intelligence directors to deny any collusion between his election campaign and Russian entities is no longer fresh one. The US political wrangling has stopped pressuring the greenback. Investors are now turning their focus towards the FOMC meeting minutes which are due at 9 pm MT time. You should pay closer attention to the phrases mentioning the pace of interest rate increases and to discussions about how to wind down the Fed’s balance sheet. A June hike still looks like as a base case scenario with investors pricing it at 83.1%. If there are some doubts over further upsurge in inflation rates, the USD will be hurt. The euro lost its momentum and nudged away from its recent high of 1.1268 that was hit the previous day following the solid PMIs releases from the euro area. The German Ifo business climate spiked to a new all-time high. Europe’s composite PMI reading was unchanged at 56.8 suggesting that there were some offsetting weaknesses in the releases of other EZ countries. Germany will release its consumer confidence reading at 9 am MT time; the ECB President Mario Draghi is due to speak at 3:45 p, at the First Conference on Financial Stability in Madrid. At the present moment, EUR/USD is trading at 1.1180. The odds for upsurge towards 1.3000 are not high, but the bullish phase in the pair is still intact. The British pound recouped some of its losses obtained in the wake of the suicide bombing in Manchester. GBP/USD edged up a few points higher (to 1.2975). The current mild downward pressure may send GBP towards 1.2920. A hike above 1.3000 will allow us to target 1.3050. For the present moment, the technical outlook is neutral. AUD/USD dropped to 0.7445 after the Moody’s announcement downgrading China’s sovereign rating to A1 from Aa3. China’s massive debt had been at the center of concerns among economists. The downgrade warns us about slowing economic growth in the People’s Republic of China. Additional pressure came following the disappointing release of the Australian construction work done data. Iron ore prices were also lower in China today. USD/CAD was trading higher at 1.3535 from yesterday’s low at 1.3452. Today’s focus will be on the Bank of Canada’s official rate announcement. The central bank is unanimously expected to stand pat tonight, but with core CPI trending lower we expect the bank will remain its easing bias. The oil prices were under pressure yesterday weighed down by Trump’s plan to sell off some of the US crude oil stockpiles to generate revenue and balance the deferral budget. OPEC members will meet in Vienna on Thursday to discuss a further extension of the output cut agreement from just the first half of this year towards the first quarter of 2018. The main focus will on whether OPEC extends the period of their pledge to cut production by six or nine months. Kuwait’s oil minister said yesterday that there is no unanimous agreement among OPEC producers for a nine-month extension.

riki143 Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 EUR/USD: EURO CAUGHT THE BAT'S TAIL 06:20 24.05.2017 Recommendation: BUY 1,108 SL 1,1025 TP1 1,121 TP2 1,13. On the EUR/USD daily chart, the target 88.6% of the "Bat" pattern was fulfilled. As a result, the risks of correction towards 1.113 (61.8% of the last downward medium-term wave) and 1.108 (the upper border of the previous upward trading channel) increased. The trend is still bullish, so rollbacks can be used for opening long positions. On the EUR/USD hourly chart, there is a break of the lower border of the upward trading channel. A successful test of the support at 1.1165 will lead to the activation of the Shark pattern with a target of 1.108.

riki143 Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 USD/CHF: BEARS SAW A DRAGON 06:22 24.05.2017 Recommendation: BUY 0,9765 SL 0,971 TP1 0,985 TP2 0,9895. On the USD/CHF daily chart, quotes reached the lower border of the downward trading channel and rebounded from support located at 0.9715 (78.6% of the last upward wave). These factors increase the risks of correction towards the medium-term downtrend (towards 0.985). On the USD/CHF hourly chart, there is a formation of the Dragon reversal pattern. A break of the resistance at 0.9765 can lead to the continuation of the rally and the formation of the Dragon's head. The Bat pattern that lies in the basis of the current reversal helps us to identify the current the interim target at 0.9815.

riki143 Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 EUR/USD: "DOUBLE TOP" PUSHED PRICE LOWER 06:57 24.05.2017 We've got a "Double Top" pattern, so the price is consolidating. So, the market is likely going to decline towards the nearest support at 1.1139 - 1.1103. If a pullback from this area happens, we could have another bullish price movement towards the next resistance at 1.1287 - 1.1307. The last "Double Top" pushed the price lower, so bears meet with support at 1.1171. Also, there's a "Flag" pattern, so the pair is likely going to get support on the 89 Moving Average. At the same time, if we see a pullback from this line, bulls will have an opportunity to reach the closest resistance at 1.1249 - 1.1267.

Also, there's a "Doji" on the 144 Moving Average, but this pattern remains unconfirmed. So, bears are likely going to test the nearest support level shortly.

riki143 Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 MORNING BRIEF FOR MAY 25 05:53 25.05.2017 The US dollar dropped against many major currencies on less hawkish FOMC meeting minutes. Overall Fed’s policymakers seemed content to hike rate at the coming meeting in June if US economic information came in about in line with their expectations. The minutes also signaled that policymakers prefer a gradual reduction in their massive balance sheet. The Committee proposed the central bank set a cap on the amount of bonds that would be allowed to run off each month, initially determining it at a low level and then raising gradually every three months. Right after the FOMC minutes the 100-year US Treasury yield declined to 2.255% from Wednesday’s high at 2.295. The euro rose higher to 1.1235 despite passive comments from ECB’s members which bring into question the recent long positioning. Solid performance in EZ economic activity and risk reduction after the French presidential election might force ECB to shift their language at the upcoming meeting in June. Yesterday ECB’s policymakers released their latest Financial Stability report along with the ECB President Draghi’s speech in which he downplayed the side effects from negative rates and claimed that there is no reason to deviate further from the indications he provided in his April introductory statement. The yesterday’s recovery from the 1.167 low is lacking in momentum, and the odds for extension towards 1.3000 are still not high. Most likely, the pair will be trading sideways within 1.1160 – 1.2670 levels. Aussie came temporarily unhinged on the China’s credit rating downgrade as market participants use Aussie as a proxy for China risk. Then, it managed to recoup some of its losses amid broad USD weakening. In today’s Tokyo session, the pair slipped few points. Now, the AUD/USD currency pair is trading around 0.7500 mark. As long as 0.7430 is not touched we still anticipate a move higher towards 0.7560. USD/JPY hardly moved on the session. It’s now at 111.65 and expected to trade sideways in the short-term. Kiwi rose to 0.7050 in the course of the Asian session. A further upsurge towards key resistance at 0.7090 is not ruled out. USD/CAD sunk to 1.3390 level after the Bank of Canada was more upbeat about the economy than traders had expected. Brent oil futures were trading higher at $54.45 ahead of the start of the OPEC meeting in Vienna. Most likely OPEC producers will extend their agreement into the first quarter in attempt to drain persistent global supply. As we have OPEC meeting on the agenda, the oil prices might rise higher and send USD/CAD lower towards the support at 1.3380, or even lower towards 1.3350.

riki143 Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 NZD/USD: KIWI IS GOING UPWARDS 06:19 25.05.2017 Recommendations: hold long positions (BUY 0,695 SL 0,6895 TP 0,708), BUY 0,6995 SL 0,694 TP1 0,712 TP2 0,734. On the NZD/USD daily chart, the break of the diagonal resistance in the form of the upper border of the downward trading channel pushed the quotes higher. The bulls almost fulfilled the target 113% of the "Shark" junior pattern. Buyers are ready to set more ambitious goals and realize the senior shark Shark. Its target 88.6% can be found near the mark of 0.734. On the NZD/USD hourly chart, there is a continuation of the upward movement towards the target 224% in the AB = CD pattern. A test of the resistance at 0.7055 can lead to the implementation of this target. Recommendations: hold long positions (BUY 0,695 SL 0,6895 TP 0,708), BUY 0,6995 SL 0,694 TP1 0,712 TP2 0,734.

On the GBP/USD daily chart, there is a consolidation within the upwards trend. A breakout of the diagonal support followed by activation of the "Shark" pattern can result in the development of the correction towards 1.278. The odds for expansion are not high, the quotes might exhaust their rally at around 1.31 (target 161.8% in AB = CD). On the GBP/USD hourly chart, there was a false breakout of the lower boundary of the triangle. Breakout of the support at 1.293 may result in a pullback. In contrast, a successful test of resistance at 1.3035 will create the prerequisites for the continuation of the rally.

riki143 Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 EUR/USD: BULLS GOING TO TEST NEXT RESISTANCE 08:02 25.05.2017 We've got a "Triple Bottom" pattern, so the price is rising. Therefore, bulls are likely going to test the next resistance at 1.1287 - 1.1307 in the short term. If a pullback from this area happens, there'll be an opportunity to have a bearish correction towards support at 1.1204 - 1.1171. The price faced resistance at 1.1249, so there's a consolidation. In this case, the market is likely going to decline towards support at 1.1211 - 1.1204. However, if we see a pullback from these levels, bulls will have a chance to achieve resistance at 1.1287 - 1.1307.

Also, there's a triangle, so the pair is likely going to test the nearest resistance at 1.3057 - 1.3090. If a pullback from this area happens, there'll be an option to have a decline in the direction of the closest support at 1.2964 - 1.2945. We've got a "Double Bottom", so the price has reached resistance at 1.2988. Also, there's a triangle, so bears are likely going to test the 89 Moving Average soon. Meanwhile, if a pullback from this line happens, bulls will probably try to test resistance at 1.3021 - 1.3028.
