riki143 Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 EUR/USD: CONFIRMED "DOJI" 14:31 01.09.2017 There's a bullish "Harami", which has been confirmed by the last "Three Methods". So, the market is likely going to rise towards the nearest resistance in the short term. If a pullback from this level happens, we could have another decline. We've got a confirmed "Doji" at the local low, so the pair is likely going to test the upper "Window" during the day. However, if we have a bearish pattern little later on, bears will probably try to test the Moving Averages once again.

riki143 Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 USD/JPY: BEARS GOING TO PUSH PRICE LOWER 14:33 01.09.2017 There's a "Shooting Star", which has been formed on the 144 Moving Average. Also, there's a local bullish "Harami", so the market is likely going to test the nearest resistance, which could be a departure point for a decline toward the lower "Window". We've got bullish patterns such a "Tweezers" and a "High Wave", but both of them have a quite week confirmation. Therefore, if a pullback from the upper "Window" happens, bears are likely going to push the price lower.

riki143 Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 USD: OUTLOOK FOR SEPTEMBER 4-8 16:31 01.09.2017 The US dollar index (DXY) dipped to 91.55 before recovering to 93.30 area, but the descending trend line didn’t let the greenback to push higher and it reserved back to the downside. The fundamental picture for the US currency looks rather grim. Geopolitical tensions increased as North Korea launched a missile that flew over Japan on Tuesday and Trump’s Administration ordered to close 3 Russian diplomatic facilities in the United States. On the domestic front, hurricane Harvey may be the most expensive natural disaster in US history. According to the weather forecaster AccuWeather, it will cost the economy about $190 billion. No big announcement on the US tax reform came from Donald Trump. Finally, US labor market figures for August brought a big disappointment. America created only 156K jobs vs. 180K expected. The unemployment rate increased to 4.4% and monthly wage growth slowed down to 0.1%. Other data from the US turned out to be mixed. American economy performed better than expected in the second quarter, as preliminary GDP growth was revised from the initial estimate of 2.6% to 3.0%. However, inflation keeps hovering at low levels – this may pose an obstacle to the Fed’s rate hikes this year. Consumer spending rose slightly less than expected in July, but consumer confidence came out strong. US banks will be closed on Monday as the nation will celebrate Labor Day. All in all, the week will be lighter on the data front. Pay attention to ISM services PMI on Wednesday and unemployment claims and crude oil inventories on Thursday. American currency remains within a downtrend. Declines below 92.00 (50-month MA) and 2016 low at 91.88 will bring DXY to 2015 low at 90.70. The greenback needs to return above 93.00 to reverse this trend and get a chance to rise to 94.00.

riki143 Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 EUR/USD: OUTLOOK FOR SEPTEMBER 4-8 17:18 01.09.2017 The single currency had an extremely volatile week. EUR/USD made a spike to 1.2070, then fell to 1.1820 and then made another spike to the levels close to 1.2000 before returning below 1.1900. The euro made bullish swings on good data from the euro area and the US dollar’s weakness. European inflation gathered pace in August. CPI increased by 1.5% exceeding analysts’ forecasts. At the same time, the acceleration was mainly because of higher oils prices as core CPI, which excludes energy and food prices, maintained the same pace. Disappointing US labor data on Friday pushed the euro higher, but the euro bulls were stopped by a report from Bloomberg, citing unnamed euro zone officials, that the ECB may not be ready to finalize their decision on next year’s QE program until December. Traders are looking forward to the European Central Bank’s meeting on Thursday, September 7. Only a few analysts expect the ECB to announce a timeline for its withdrawal in bond purchase plans. At his speech in Jackson Hole in August, the ECB President Mario Draghi said that “a significant degree of monetary accommodation” was still warranted. Instead, the market’s focus will be on the regulator’s comments on the euro’s strength. Minutes of the regulator’s most recent meeting showed some officials were concerned about this. Yet, some of the ECB members have made hawkish comments recently. EUR/USD is still within the general uptrend. A weekly close below 1.1900 may set the ground for further correction to the downside. The 200-week MA at 1.1750 should act as support ahead of 1.1700. The level of 1.2000 represents a key psychological level. The pair’s inability to close above it on Tuesday together with daily MACD divergence points at the necessity to visit support levels. In addition, pay attention to the fact that EUR/USD ran into the Ichimoku Cloud and 50-period MA at the monthly chart – these things create resistance. The US economic calendar is going to be light. Take into account our technical analysis considerations and prepare for volatility during the ECB meeting & press conference.

riki143 Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 GBP/USD: OUTLOOK FOR SEPTEMBER 4-8 17:38 01.09.2017 In line with our expectations, GBP/USD tried to recover but remained limited by the key psychological level of 1.3000 on the upside. The pair’s recovery was caused primarily by the weakness of the US dollar and not by the strength of British pound. The sterling remains under the negative impact of uncertainty over Britain’s exit from the European Union. The third round of Brexit negotiations started on Monday, but the EU’s chief negotiator said that the progress of the talks was slow. One of the Bank of England Monetary Policy Committee members Saunders, who has recently voted for a rate hike, warned that unless the regulator didn’t start raising rates soon, it will have to increase rates at a faster pace in future potentially hurting economic growth. However, the prevailing opinion is still that the BoE will keep rates low until the situation with Brexit becomes clearer. The UK manufacturing PMI hit a 4-month high in August. In the coming days, the nation will release construction and services PMIs. On addition, the BoE Governor Mark Carney will speak at the House of Commons in line with Inflation Report hearings on Tuesday. His comments may be market movers. At the end of the week, on Friday, Britain will release manufacturing production figures. Technically GBP/USD rebounded from support line connecting April, June and September lows. This line is currently providing support around 1.2800. On H4 we see something like an inverted Head & Shoulders. A break above 1.3000 will allow the pound to strengthen to 1.3100 and 1.3160. Below 1.2800 the pound will get vulnerable for a decline to 1.2750 and 1.2660 (200-day MA).

riki143 Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 USD/JPY: OUTLOOK FOR SEPTEMBER 4-8 18:09 01.09.2017 Japanese yen has been influenced by tensions between the US and North Korea. It gained as a safe haven at the beginning of the week after North Korea fired a missile over Japanese territory on Tuesday. USD/JPY fell to 108.25 before recovering to the 110.50 area. According to Japan’s defense minister, more missiles will come. North Korea watchers suspect the regime may conduct another nuclear test over the next 10 days. Although market reactions to North Korea’s actions have become more muted, if the Asian nation continues to escalate the situation, the yen will strengthen more versus the US dollar. Japanese preliminary industrial production declined by 0.8%, housing starts fell by 2.3%, household spending reduced by 0.2%. In the coming days, Japan will release average cash earnings, leading indicators, final GDP for the second quarter and current account. US economic calendar will be lighter than in the previous week. The greenback may take a break, although American economic fundamentals aren’t encouraging. USD/JPY managed to close in August above 50-month MA at 109.70. The pair is supported at 108.10 (April low). A decline below this level will set the stage for a big swing down. The fact that the US dollar managed to rise despite the disappointing labor market data on Friday suggests the possibility of some near-term recovery, although there are many resistance levels ahead at 111.00, 111.40 (200-week MA) and 112.40 (200-day MA).

riki143 Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 USD/CAD: OUTLOOK FOR SEPTEMBER 4-8 18:32 01.09.2017 Canadian dollar keeps making impressive gains versus its US counterpart. USD/CAD made an attempt to recover, but was severely rejected down from 1.2660 and fell to the lowest levels in more than 2 years. The pair was hit both by the US problems and Canada’s bright economic figures. The CAD strengthened even as oil prices slipped in the wake of Hurricane Harvey, which has paralyzed a quarter of the US refining industry. A report released on Thursday showed that Canadian GDP grew at 4.5% annual pace in the second quarter, at the fastest pace since 2011. In addition, Mexican Economy Minister said on Thursday that Mexico and Canada would remain in the North American Free Trade Agreement even if the US administration abandoned the accord. Traders are now almost sure that the Bank of Canada will raise its benchmark interest rate this year. Some players are even expecting a rate hike as soon as at the upcoming meeting on Wednesday, September 6. Such possibility is estimated at 30%. The likelihood of a rate hike in 2017, in general, is estimated at 85%. Canadians will celebrate the Labor Day on Monday, and banks both in Canada and the US will be closed. Other days of the week will be packed with important events for CAD. Economic data releases include trade balance, building permits, Ivey PMI and employment figures. USD/CAD remains in a downtrend. This trend will likely continue. A weekly close below 200-week MA at 1.2430 will be a bearish sign. Next support levels are at 1.2300 and 1.2200. MACD divergence on the daily chart may allow some correction to the upside. Resistance is at 1.2430 and 1.2550.

riki143 Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 EUR/USD: "THORN" PATTERN 10:07 04.09.2017 The main trend is still bullish, but the price faced resistance at 1.1959, so we've got a "Thorn" pattern, which pushed the market to the 34 Moving Average. In this case, we should keep an eye on the nearest support area at 1.1827 - 1.1801 as an intraday target. If a pullback from these levels happens, we could have an upward price movement towards the closest resistance at 1.1909 - 1.1959. Bears faced support at 1.1847, so the price is consolidating. However, the pair is likely going to test the next support at 1.1827 - 1.1822. If so, we could have a new local low soon. Meanwhile, there's an opportunity to have a bullish price movement towards the nearest resistance at 1.1892 - 1.1909 afterwards.

If the 89 Moving Average acts as support, the price is likely going to test another resistance at 1.2989. If a pullback from this level happens, bears will probably try to test the nearest support at 1.2932 - 1.2891. There's a "V-Top" pattern, which pushed the price to the closest support at 1.2936. Nevertheless, bulls are likely going to break the last high during the day. If the market doesn't fixate above 1.2989 - 1.2994, there'll be an opportunity to have a decline in the direction of the next support at 1.2932 - 1.2916.

riki143 Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 EUR/USD: MARKET GOING TO TEST 55 MA AGAIN 10:27 04.09.2017 The 34 & 55 Moving Averages have acted as support, so we've got bullish patterns such a "Harami" and an "Inverted Hammer". However, confirmation of these patterns is quite weak, so the market is likely going to test the 55 MA once again. The price is consolidating near the last "Window". Also, there are a "Harami" and a "High Wave" patterns. Therefore, the pair is likely going to test the nearest resistance, which could be a departure point for an intraday decline.

So, the price is likely going to continue falling down towards the lower "Window". If any bullish pattern arrives later on, there'll be an opportunity to have a bullish price movement. The last pullbacks from the upper "Window" led to form a new local low. It's likely that the market is going to test the nearest support, which could be a departure point for an upward correction.

The area of $1347-1352 acts as key resistance. Support is near $1320.4-1321.6. Bulls retain control, so buying on the pullbacks is the main strategy.

This increases the risks of the continuation of the decline to 1.2310, 1.2180 and 1.2040. Never the less, we can’t exclude the possibility of a short-term pullback because of the inside bar. On H1, bears returned the pair inside the descending channel. This is a sign of their strength. At the same time, a break of the upper border of the triangle will create the risks of a pullback towards 1.2501-1.2507 and 1.254-1.2559.
