riki143 Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 GBP/USD: outlook for December 26-30 12/23/2016 GBP/USD dropped to 1.2245 level in the course of past week. The UK data set released on Friday did little to support the pound. The uncertainty over the Brexit process will continue pressuring the pound. The Supreme Court is expected to make a ruling in the middle of January. There may be other legal challenges that could cause future delays of the EU-UK separation. Next week shouldn’t bring lots of moves to the chart. The pair needs to recover above 1.2330 to reverse this bearish tone and be able to correct higher, towards the 1.2450/60 area.The pound should continue its downward movement remaining the momentum of the past week. On the downside, there are several supports located at 1.2200, 1.2178 and 1.2073 levels.

riki143 Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 EUR/USD: wave [ii] going to be continued 12/23/2016 The price has been rising since a pullback from 1/8 MM Level happens, so there’s an opportunity to have wave [ii] in the short term. If a pullback from 2/8 MM Level be on the table, bears are likely going to deliver wave [iii]. As we can see on the one-hour chart, wave [ii] is taking form of a zigzag. Therefore, wave ( is likely going to be continued. However, there’s a chance to have bullish wave © of [ii] afterwards. In this case, 6/8 MM Level could be tested once again.

The breakout of the resistance level 1.4470 accelerated the c-wave of the active minor ABC correction (ii) - which started earlier from the lower boundary of the aforementioned sideways price channel.

riki143 Posted December 26, 2016 Share Posted December 26, 2016 GBP/USD: pound is led by the patterns 12/26/2016 On the GBP/USD daily chart, after quotes went beyond the descending trading channel the "bears" regained control over the market. The "Crab" pattern with its 113% and 127.2% intermediate targets is relevant at the present moment. We may expect the development of the correction wave from the December low located at the 1,215 level. On the GBP/USD hourly chart, there is a formation of the CD wave of the "Shark" pattern. A breakout of the December low can lead to the downfall of quotes towards 1,215 (88.6%). Also, there might be a correction from the current levels towards 1.2357, 1.2441 and 1.2509.

riki143 Posted December 26, 2016 Share Posted December 26, 2016 EUR/GBP: bulls launched a counterattack 12/26/2016 On the EUR/GBP daily chart, the "bears" failed to update the December minimum. "Bulls" launched a counterattack. If they manage to test the resistance at 0.8565, an activation of the "Bat" pattern will increase the risks of the continuation of the rally towards 0.9. The 0.873 and 0.8865 marks can serve as intermediate targets. Restoration of the downtrend is possible if quotes manage to return to 0.832. On the EUR/GBP hourly chart, there is a rather steady uptrend. The further movement of the pair will depend on the test of the resistance at 0.8545.

riki143 Posted December 26, 2016 Share Posted December 26, 2016 Morning brief report for December 26 12/26/2016 Markets are still half asleep as their participants celebrate Christmas. EUR/USD is trading near the level of 1.0460. The euro managed to regain some of its losses on Friday mainly due to the weakening of the US dollar. USD slipped some points as investors took profits in the run-up to the Christmas holidays. US 10-year bond yields dipped following the Friday’s release of the US economic indicators (the household income data was not upbeat). The US dollar should not fall lower, as it remains to be well-supported thanks to the anticipation of a faster pace of the benchmark increases under Trump’s presidency. USD/JPY fell to 116.95 on the weakening of the greenback. Today’s trading will be subdued as stock markets, precious/base metals options are shut for the Christmas holiday. European and American banks are closed as well. So, the yen may strengthen further in relation to the US currency snatching at a chance in the period of the US markets’ lull. AUD/USD managed to recover on Monday after falling to 0.7160 following the news stating that Chinese President Xi Jinping was open to the deceleration in the economic growth of China. Aussie remains vulnerable to the price fluctuations in the commodity market and news flows from China. GBP/USD edged down to 1.2265. The pound remains under pressure of uncertainty over the Brexit process. More: https://new.fxbazooka.com/analytics/11840 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riki143 Posted December 26, 2016 Share Posted December 26, 2016 EUR/USD: bearish "Thorn" 12/26/2016 We’ve got a “Double Bottom”, which has been confirmed, so the price is consolidating. Considering the main downtrend, the market is likely going to test a support at 1.0419. If a pullback from this level happens, there’ll be an opportunity to have a bullish price movement towards a resistance at 1.0506. There’s a “Thorn”, so bears are likely going to achieve a support at 1.0419. However, if we have a pullback from this level, bulls will probably try to reach the nearest resistance at 1.0478 – 1.0506.

riki143 Posted December 26, 2016 Share Posted December 26, 2016 GBP/USD: support waiting for bears 12/26/2016 The price faced a support at 1.2270, so the price is consolidating. If we have any reversal pattern, the market is likely going to reach a support at 1.2227 – 1.2205. Considering a possible pullback from this area, there’s a chance to have an upward correction afterwards. We’ve got a “V-Bottom”, so the price reached the 34 Moving Average, which led to the current consolidation. In this case, we should keep an eye on the nearest support at 1.2227 – 1.2205 as a possible bearish target. Meanwhile, if we see a pullback from these levels, there’ll be an option to have a correction in the direction of the next resistance at 1.2309 – 1.2385.

riki143 Posted December 26, 2016 Share Posted December 26, 2016 EUR/USD: wave [ii] going to end on 2/8 MM Level 12/26/2016 The last pullback from 1/8 MM Level led to an upward correction, so we have wave [ii], which is taking place on the four-hours chart. Previously a bearish impulse in wave has been formed. The main intraday target is 2/8 MM Level, which could be a departure point for another decline in wave [iii]. As we can see on the one-hour chart, wave ( is taking form of a double zigzag. Therefore, bulls are likely going to deliver wave © of [ii] in the short term. If we see another pullback from 6/8 MM Level, there’ll be an opportunity to have a bearish impulse.

riki143 Posted December 26, 2016 Share Posted December 26, 2016 EUR/USD: bears relaxing in a flat 12/26/2016 We’ve got a “Shooting Star”, but a confirmation of this pattern is a quite weak. So, the nearest “Three Methods” is likely going to act as a support. As we can see on the Daily chart, here’s a “High Wave”, so bulls will probably try to move on. The price is still consolidating on the one-hour chart. Also, the 89 Moving Average is acting as a resistance, so we’ve got an “Engulfing” pattern. In this case, the pair is likely going to continue moving up and down in a flat range.

riki143 Posted December 26, 2016 Share Posted December 26, 2016 USD/JPY: correction on the way 12/26/2016 The last “Engulfing” pattern is still on the table, so the market is likely going to test the 34 Moving Average, which could be a departure point for another bullish rally. As we can see on the Daily chart, there’re a “High Wave” and a “Harami” at the local high, which both led to the current decline. However, if we see any bullish pattern, there’ll be an opportunity to have a new high. The price has reached the middle of the last huge white candle. However, there isn’t any reversal pattern so far. Therefore, the pair is likely going to continue falling down until any bullish pattern arrives.

The resistance zone near the resistance level 0.7740 was further strengthened by the upper daily Bollinger Band. CAD/CHF is expected to fall further in the direction of the next sell target at the support level 0.7500 (intersecting with the 38.2% Fibonacci correction level of the previous sharp upward impulse wave 1 from the start of November).

The downward reversal from this resistance zone accelerated the active minor impulse wave 3, which belongs to the intermediate impulse wave (3) from the middle of October.

riki143 Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 EUR/USD ahead of CB Consumer Confidence (December): nothing major is expected 12/27/2016 After Christmas holidays, we’ll have today at 15:00 GMT the CB Consumer Confidence’s data for December, which is expected to see an increase to 108.5 from 107.1 (November). If we notice a good number that could tell us further consumer spending’s increase is coming, we can see some volatile moves in the US Dollar-related pairs, despite low volumes of trading ahead of New Year’s eve, while a weak data should fuel to the bears in USD across the board. Our technical analysis for EUR/USD at H1 chart is still showing a very sideways’ picture around 200 SMA and the support zone of 1.0431 is helping the bulls to remain alive in the battle, before the end of the year. If the pair plunges below that area, the next key interest area to the downside should be the 1.0397 and that scenario will happen if the number comes above the expectations. However, if EUR/USD breaks above the 1.0476 zone, then it can test the 1.0517 level. More: https://new.fxbazooka.com/analytics/11850 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To change the trend an expanding wedge pattern should be realized - to send prices lower towards $42.7. At the present moment, however, this scenario cannot be realized. So, we would recommend you to buy on the rollbacks or on the breakouts of the resistances. On the hourly chart of Brent oil futures, there is a "Gartley" pattern. A rebound from its 78.6% target will increase the risks of the continuation of the consolidation in the $53,2-57,2 range. A breakout will create prerequisites for the continuation of the rally towards $60.5 per barrel.

riki143 Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 Morning brief for December 27 12/27/2017 Financial markets are still sleeping with Christmas carols. Trading should be thin this week as the market participants are closing out 2016 volatile year. EUR/USD slid down to 1.0430 in the early hours of the Asian session as 10-year US Treasury yields extended their gains having partially recovered their yesterday’s losses. Italy is struggling with its banking crisis. ECB told Monte dei Paischi that it needs 8.8 bln euros to plug its capital shortfall. Earlier Italy’s government received the Parliament’s support for the bank’s bailout when private investors had refused to take its losses. USD/JPY popped up earlier this morning as we got a miss in Japan’s core consumer prices and household spending. The data indicated that Japan’s economy lacks of a significant boost to strike the BoJ’s egregious 2% inflation rate target. Core consumer prices fell at their fastest pace in nearly 4 years showing that fighting deflation is not as easy-peasy as Shinzo Abe thought it would be in 2012. The further movement of the pair should be subdued as the end of 2016 is just several days away. The upper border of Ichimoku cloud on the H4 timeframe is holding the yen’s pace. The pair may rise later today if the US releases will be above market’s expectations. GBP/USD made a baby step lower and then glued to the 1.2270 level. The US CB consumer confidence might send the prices a bit lower towards the nearest support at 1.2490. Aussie and Kiwi retraced on the strengthening of the US dollar. USD/CAD dropped to 1.3470 overnight on the surging oil prices. Brent oil futures jumped to $55.86 on Tuesday as we approach to the actual OPEC and non-OPEC producers’ output cuts.
