riki143 Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 EUR/USD: "Double Top" stopped bulls for a while 9/23/2016 There’s a “V-Top” pattern, which led to decline towards the Moving Averages.

riki143 Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 GBP/USD: "V-Top" led to bearish correction 99/23/2016 Bulls faced a resistance at 1.3115, which led to form a “V-Top” pattern, so the price is declining.

riki143 Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 UK economy after Brexit vote and GBP/USD forecasts 9/23/2016 Elections, upheavals among citizens, strikes, coup d’Etat can wreak havoc on a currency. And the Brexit referendum is an indisputable confirmation of this tendency. Nobody expected that UK people will vote to leave the EU, and there it was – a clap of thunder – they did it. The pound plummeted from its highs responding to this unexpected turn of events. In most situations, however, the dust settles and currencies return to their pre-crisis rates and adjust to the country's economic growth prospects. Let’s look at the UK economy and try to define the GBP follows this pattern. So far, since the “Black Thursday” of June 23, there is no sign of ruin in the UK real economy. Moreover, the OECD (Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development) believes that it will grow at 1,8 % this year. Right after the referendum many economists drew a rather gloomy picture of the UK future. They tried to convince us that the “Brexit” would lead to a sell-off of assets, that purchasing power of British people would be distorted; that business confidence would disappear. Investment banks, including Barclays and Credit Suisse, even predicted the economy would shrink significantly in 2017. Yet that has not really come true – business confidence is gradually recovering, although investments did fall since the thrice-cursed referendum; and consumers spend as enthusiastically as they used to. Now, let’s look at the technical picture and define what is happening with pound after these rattling events. As we see there is a strong downward trend on the daily chart since June, but there is a glimpse of hope for the GBP resurrection. Due to the economic recovery, it managed to slow down its fall and found several supports at 1, 279, 1,286 and 1,294 levels.

riki143 Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 EUR/USD & Draghi's testimony at European Parliament: 1.1300 on the cards? 9/26/2016 Today at 14:00 GMT, ECB's President Mario Draghi will testify at the Committee on Economic and Monetary Affairs of European Parliament and markets are expecting volatility during his speech, because topics of inflation and QE may be discussed by the central bank's head. However, following Draghi's style, it might bring no hints about further steps on ECB's monetary policies and it can't produce the volatility that we expect. Our technical view for EUR/USD at H4 chart is still showing a big sideways range, where the pair has been trapped since August. The resistance zone of 1.1246 is still strong and it might help to strengthen the overall bearish structure of EUR/USD (showed since August 18th). If Draghi's words are dovish, we can expect a breakout below the 1.1195 level, with the nearest target placed at the 1.1129 zone.

At the present time, there is a consolidation in the range of 100,55-101,35 (61,8-78,6% Fibonacci from the XA wave). If the yen goes beyond this limits, it will determine the direction of further movement. On the USD/ JPY hourly chart, quotes are moving within the descending short-term channel. The tendency is still "bearish". If the sellers return to the support at 100.55 level and test it successfully, the risks of attaking the 98 level will increase.

riki143 Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 EUR/USD & Yellen's Speech: Where are the Euro's bulls? 9/28/2016 Today at 14:00 GMT will speak the Fed's Chairwoman Janet Yellen, which is one of two speeches that she'll hold during this week. Yellen is expected to talk about interest rates' strategy by the central bank and it can bring some volatility to the markets in today's early American session. It's worth noting that the markets are still digesting the US presidential debate, but the effect should last for the short-term only (this week at least). Our technical picture for EUR/USD at H4 chart is showing a solid support at the 1.1196 level, where the bulls are trying to push higher in order to validate the dynamic bottom offered by the 200 SMA. If that happens and Yellen remains with her rhetoric, then it could test the resistance level of 1.1262 once again, while a slightly hawkish's speech can produce a lower breakout below the 1.1196 level, with the nearest target placed at the 1.1147 zone.

riki143 Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 Deutsche Bank may drown European markets 9/28/2016 Deutsche Bank shares lost more than 7.5% to €10.55 on Monday reaching their lowest level since 1983. The bank’s senior executives hurried to reassure investors it has enough money to cover a multibillion-dollar fine for alleged mis-selling of the bonds in the period before the 2008 crisis. Never the less, Deutsche Bank will unlikely cope with mounting financial problems without government support. Since the beginning of this year the bank's shares fell by more than 50%. Its bonds have dropped as well. Deutsche Bank risks facing a shortage of capital. From early 2016 Deutsche Bank was struggling to cuts costs and restore profitability, but as legal challenges have mounted and the fine has appeared on the table, investors’ sentiment has knocked out. Before the decade of crisis (the global financial crisis, the European sovereign debt crisis), Deutsche could have written out this ill-fated cheque with a nonchalant smug and not to lose the trust of its clients, but now nobody is sure where it can get the money from. If the German Government doesn’t meddle in with its rescue, a huge banking crisis will burst out. That, in turn, will cripple the European largest economy, blow the Italian banking system, and French and Spanish banks will be next. Add to this the impact of Brexit, and you will get a full house. With this scenario, it is not surprising that the markets are facing the tremendous decline in the DB’s share price.

riki143 Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 GBP/USD: the pound will change the picture considerably 9/28/2016 On the GBP/USD daily chart, there are prerequisites for breaking the "bearish" trend. Quotes lie in the vicinity of the upper boundary of the descending trade channel. A successful attack of the diagonal resistance line and the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement level of the last bearish wave will activate a "Shark" reversal pattern. Its 88.6% target corresponds to the 1,325 mark. On the GBP/USD hourly chart, the breakout of the 1,304 resistance level will be a good signal of the "bull" attack. If the pound manages to consolidate above 1.3116, the quotes might continue to rise towards the 1,325 level.

This time, it coincides with the lower boundary of the rising trade channel. This increases the risks of the collapse in prices, if bears' attack is successful.

riki143 Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 USD/JPY: events and levels to watch 9/28/2016 USD/JPY was supported this week by the levels just above the key psychological level of 100.00 yen, but stayed below 101.00 on the upside. On the one hand, US data released on Tuesday were positive: consumer confidence improved and flash services PMI exceeded expectations. In addition, Japanese players bought US currency ahead of Japan’s September 30 interim book closing for the fiscal year. On the other hand, the Federal Reserve’s Vice Chairman Stanley Fischer limited the greenback’s recovery by saying on Tuesday that the Fed shouldn’t raise interest rates too much. On Wednesday we’ll hear more from the US central bank: Chair Janet Yellen will testify before a Congressional committee, though she’s expected to speak mainly about financial regulation. Speeches of other FOMC members are scheduled today as well: Loretta Mester, Esther George, James Bullard (voting members) and Charles Evans, Neel Kashkar (don’t vote on the Fed’s policy this year). According to Barclays, we’ll hear hawkish comments from Mester and George, while Evans should be dovish. Bullard is not expected to make comments on monetary policy. If USD/JPY slides below 100.00, we’ll likely see it touch 99.00. Note that in this case Japanese officials will try verbal interventions to support the pair. More sellers should appear if the bulls attempt to get to 102.00 (2016 resistance line). Goldman Sachs notes that USD/JPY is now close to its fair value. As a result, the pair needs strong drivers to leave the current range. More: https://new.fxbazooka.com/analytics/10660 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

riki143 Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 Why the Euro falls and how long it will last 9/28/2016 For those looking for key market triggers, we suggest to keep an eye on Draghi’s and Yellen’s speeches later this day. Although neither of them are supposed to spend all their time on the interpretation of their monetary policies, there is a great possibility that these events will create a certain stir in the markets. Especially when the Fed is going to raise its interest rates this year and the ECB is determined to turn to its QE measures once again. Beyond the aforementioned events, don’t forget about the Industrial and consumer confidence figures coming on Thursday. There might be a slight drop which may negatively affect the EUR. There will be another release on Friday – Eurozone Unemployment rate, which also doesn’t promise any improvements of the EUR exchange rate. So, we recommend you to protect your shares in portfolio ahead of this key releases. The euro sank to $1.1218 from Monday's peak of $1.1279 as stock and bond prices in Deutsche Bank dropped to their record lows on worries regarding a $14 billion fine from the US Department of Justice. Meanwhile, it is impossible to project how future data will influence the quotes or how the current market picture will respond to the Drahi’s speech and releases. We wouldn’t recommend to gamble on the euro improvement in a short term, when the Eurozone is struggling to go round of the potential pitfalls. But in perspective, especially if the ECB decides to embrace the Japanese yield targeting and there is no expansion of the QE in December, the Euro will appreciate again. On the EUR/USD daily chart, we can observe the euro’s decline since Monday. There is a support line at 1,118 which can be broken out and strengthen the downward movement of the euro, if Yellen sounds hawkish at today’s meeting.

riki143 Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 Oil market imbalances: new threats from China 9/28/2016 According to the International Energy Agency, China is one of the major importers of crude oil in the world. For many years People’s Republic enjoyed the relatively low oil prices to stockpile crude for its strategic petroleum reserve (SPR). Now, it was announced that Chinese reserves are almost full. This fact, in perspective, may wind down the major oil exporters’ derisive attempts to reach the deal on the oil production freeze to bring the prices back from their extreme lows. Oil experts believe that China may seriously disrupt the commodity markets, once it decides to play its trump card – use or sell its sacred oil reserves in order to keep the oil prices at their current level. Because People’s Republic doesn’t become better off from the oil price hikes. Nobody knows exactly at which extend this may affect oil markets, as China prefers not to reveal the information about how many barrels it managed to preserve. But, if we refer to the level of Chinese oil consumption (which was around 11.5 million barrels a day in June, according to the IEA), we may conclude, that China’s SPR is not small. Meanwhile, a significant slowdown in Chinese demand chills the spine of major producers. Once they lose such a good customer, they will have to shrink their profits considerably. And with the deal on the oil output reduction looming on the horizon, this perspective doesn’t make them happy.

riki143 Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 GBP: a hint of recovery, but for how long? 9/28/2016 The EUR/GBP has fallen significantly since Monday as investors became anxious about how Deutsche Bank manages to unravel from its mounting problems. However, the pound’s advances are believed to be limited and the currency could easily crash from its peaks unless supportive data is published this Friday. Alternatively, if we don’t receive any signs of British economic recovery, the GBP may shoot again from its weekly highs. The main stakeholders favor the first scenario which stands for the pound’s depreciation. Danske – the largest bank in Denmark, is long EUR/GBP from 0,8374, with a target at 0,9000 and stop at 0,8100. Its decision could be explained by various reasons. Danske believes that GBP will continue to depreciate with BoE’s monetary easing and considerable imbalances in the UK economy. It points out at the forecasts of the significant current deficit of approximately 6,4% of 2015 GDP. On top of this, Bank of England in its latest announcement made it clear that it is going to cut rates again this year, if its forecasts for growth are confirmed by the data. In addition, there is uncertainty about further EU-UK relationship is hovering in the air. The British government has yet not triggered the withdrawal process, striving to somehow prepare the vulnerable economy for the turbulent consequences. Société générale also remains bearish of GBP and decides to open long position on EUR/GBP from 0,8620 with a target at 1,0000. According to the bank’s analysts, the EUR/USD may rise by 5 – 10% from its current position. There is a great potential for an upward movement, since there was a long period of consolidation and sideways trading. CITI, unlike its colleagues, tends to support the second scenario. Recently, it has opened a short position on EUR/GBP from 0,8622, with a target at 0,8333 and a stop at 0,8750. CITI’s analysts noticed an evening star pattern on the technical EUR/GBP chart.
