riki143 Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 AUD/USD outlook for October 3-7 9/30/2016 What do the present AUD/USD price patterns tell us, and what next week will bring us? The Australian dollar once again tried to challenge key resistance line at 0.77 this week, but failed to withstand its US counterpart. In the upcoming week we don’t expect any considerable moves from Aussie. We would suggest opting for the sidelines, as the news calendar doesn’t foresee any significant events that could underpin the AUD rise/downfall the next week. Perhaps, only the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) monetary policy meeting will increase the degree of volatility. According to Latest Reuters poll of 57 economists, the Reserve Bank of Australia will unlikely change its interest rate at Tuesday meeting remaining concerned about low inflation and gradual AUD appreciation. But, fortunately, the strong housing market keeps Australian growth afloat. The August data form Australian Bureau of Statistics showed a significant rise in number of the building approvals, we expect the confirmation of this trend in its next release coming next week. In addition, economic growth has held up well, commodity prices experienced an upsurge. Taking into consideration all these factors, the RBA will unlikely introduce any easing measures this time. Also, we would encourage you to keep an eye on the trade balance data coming on Thursday next week. Last release didn’t show big distortions; we hope that this time there won’t be any considerable changes as well. The smooth movement of the AUD/USD can be disturbed by the US Non-Farm Employment Change release. This data provides an early outlook of the American employment growth, which usually doesn’t deviate from the official government data. If there are any changes in the pair movement next week, they are expected to be insignificant. A break of the resistance line at 0.7710 will pave the way for the further northward movement up to the 0.7725 – 0.7733 zone (resistance line). Alternatively, a retreat from the level of 0.7560 will throw the doors open for the test of the next support line at 0.7475. But the technical picture doesn’t tell us that downward trend is looming – there are no clear-cut bearish trade signals.

riki143 Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 EUR/USD: bears broken the "Window" 9/30/2016 There’s a bearish price movement, which is taking place on the four-hours chart. Also, we’ve got a “Shooting Star”, a “Harami” and a “Doji”, which all have been confirmed. Therefore, the market is likely going to reach the nearest support line. As we can see on the Daily chart, there’s a bearish “Engulfing”, which has a confirmation, so the price is going to test the 34 Moving Average soon. We’ve got a “Three Methods” pattern on the nearest Moving Average line. Moreover, the price has broken the “Window”, so bears are likely going to move on in the short term.

riki143 Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 EUR/CAD reversed from resistance level 1.4900 9/30/2016 EUR/CAD reversed from resistance level 1.4900 Next sell target - 1.4600 EUR/CAD recently reversed down sharply from the resistance level 1.4900 (which is the lower boundary of the strong resistance zone which has been steadily reversing this currency pair from March, as can be seen from the daily EUR/CAD chart below). The upper border of the aforementioned resistance zone stands at the round resistance level 1.5000. This resistance area was strengthened by the upper daily Bollinger Band and by the 38.2% Fibonacci correction of the downward impulse from January. EUR/CAD is expected to fall down further to the next sell target at the support level 1.4600 (low of the previous minor correction (ii)).

riki143 Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 EUR/NZD reversed from resistance area 9/30/2016 EUR/NZD reversed from resistance area Next sell target - 1.5200 EUR/NZD recently reversed down from the resistance area lying between the resistance level 1.5500 (which earlier reversed pervious waves (iv), (a) and 2, as can be seen below), upper daily Bollinger Band and the 61.8% Fibonacci correction of the pervious sharp minor impulse wave 1 from the middle of July. The downward reversal from the aforementioned resistance area started the active minor impulse wave 3. EUR/NZD is expected to fall down further to the next sell target at the support level 1.5200 (which reversed the (-wave of the pervious ABC correction 2).

riki143 Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 USD/JPY: pullback from "Window" led to massive decline 9/30/2016 We’ve got an “Engulfing” pattern, which has been confirmed. Also, there’s a “Shooting Star” pattern, so the price is likely going to get a support on the 13 Moving Average line in the short term. As we can see on the Daily chart, a bullish “Harami” has been confirmed, so bulls are going to test the 21 Moving Average. The upper “Window” has acted as a resistance, which led to the current decline. However, considering the last “Hammer” pattern, there’s an opportunity to have an upward movement during the day.

riki143 Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 USD/CAD outlook for October 3-7 9/30/2016 This week Loonie grew in value due to the Iranian and Saudi decision to curb their insatiable appetites for profits. Two great oil producers have finally found the common ground and agreed for an output cap. But exhilaration ended at the end of the week. Oil prices are gradually returning to their annual trends and the USD/CAD is recovering from its recent downfall. Although we should give proper respect to the Canadian steadfast tin soldier which managed to withstand even the positive news flow from the US (US Department of labor reported that the number of initial application for unemployment benefits for this week rose by 3000 from the previous week which is much less than it was expected by analysts; the US GDP growth accelerated and reached 1,4 %; Yellen still hints at the probability of rate’s hike; US consumer confidence data continue to impress the markets with excellent readings). Nevertheless, we can’t be a hundred percent certain that the Loonie’s rally will last forever; it will finally depreciate in relation to its US counterpart. Numerous domestic problems and inevitable fall in oil prices will cause this downfall. Governor of the Bank of Canada Poloz in his speech on Monday stated that the Canada’s potential economic growth powered by the high birth rates is now ending. The job market in Canada is fading with rising amount of elderly. This will deter the BOC from any rate hikes in the nearest future to keep inflation in check. According to Poloz, the neutral interest rate is exactly what Canada needs right now. Poloz has also pointed at the fact that the impact of lower oil prices may influence Canadian economy significantly. Next week will bring us many data releases offering a seasonal outlook of Canadian economy – trade balance, building permits, unemployment rate, employment change, purchasing managers’ Index. Add to this a bunch of releases coming from the United States, and the volatility bomb will explode. Once we get acquainted with all these reports, we will be able to assess the true potential for the economic growth of Canada and define in which direction the Loonie will proceed. If we take a look at the daily chart, we will see that there was a long period of consolidation and trading sidelines. The USD/CAD was trading within the 1.33 – 1.28 levels for many days. The breakout of the resistance line at 1.327 is unlikely possible this week; this makes us to plot a lower resistance line at 1.3212. If American statistics doesn’t give us positive result, we expect the trend go down to the support line at 1.304. If ‘bears’ manage to take situation under control, the downward trend might reach the 1,2890 mark.

riki143 Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 EUR/USD: bulls going to deliver wave [y] of E 9/30/2016 There’s wave E of (Y), which is taking form of a double zigzag. It’s likely that wave [x] of E is going to end soon. So, if we see a pullback from 2/8 Murrey Math Level (P=200), bulls are likely going to reach 6/8 MM Level in the short term. As we can see on the one-hour chart, there’s a possible zigzag in wave [x]. Therefore, if a pullback from 2/8 MM Level happens, then bulls are likely going to deliver wave [y] of E, which could take a form of a zigzag like it was in wave [w].

riki143 Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 US dollar: outlook for October 3-7 9/30/2016 In line with our expectations decline of the US dollar after the Federal Reserve’s decision to keep rates unchanged in September was limited. US dollar index consolidated above 95.00 and even rose to 95.70 by the week’s end. US election race continues. According to an NBC News/Survey Monkey poll, 52% of likely voters said that Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton “won" the first presidential debate, while 21% thought that the Republican Donald Trump was the winner. Clinton is perceived to be good for stocks and bearish for the greenback, while Trump, on the contrary, is associated with unpredictable policy steps, which should result in stronger USD. All in all, Trump is currently performing better than many political observers expected, so the overall uncertainty should continue. As for American monetary policy, traders aren’t sure what will happen as well. Look how divided the market is now on the possibility of US rate hike in December: it’s almost 50-50 chance, according to CME data. The Fed’s Chair Janet Yellen said higher rate will likely be appropriate this year, but it’s clear that the regulator’s decision will depend on the incoming economic data. Economic figures from the US in the past week were mainly better-than-expected: Q2 GDP growth was revised up from 1.1% to 1.4% and durable goods orders didn’t decline in August as strongly as it was expected. Next week America will release ISM manufacturing PMI on Monday, ADP non-farm employment change on Wednesday and unemployment claims on Thursday. On Friday expect increased volatility as the US will publish NFP (nonfarm payrolls) and other labor market figures. Also on Friday we’ll here from a bunch of Fed speakers – Fisher, Mester, George and Brainard. In addition, there will be more political news: Vice presidential debate will take place on Tuesday. Resistance for USD index is at 96.25 (late August and September highs). Support is at 95.00 (support line since May).

riki143 Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 EUR/USD: outlook for October 3-7 9/30/2016 The main source of negative impact on the euro this week were the worries about the future of Deutsche Bank. US Justice Department is demanding the bank to pay $14 billion fine to settle civil claims related to its dealings in mortgage-backed securities. There are reports that hedge funds start to withdrew money from Deutsche. It seems that German government is reluctant to provide financial help for the institution. The problems of the bank reignited fears about the condition of the European banking sector. Another German bank – Commerzbank – had unveiled plans to cut up to 10 000 jobs and suspend dividends for the first time. These concerns will keep affecting the euro. Economic data from the euro area were mixed. German Ifo business climate index exceeded expectations and the region’s inflation rate increased from 0.2% to 0.4% in September, but the price growth doesn’t look very convincing with core inflation stagnating at 0.8% and unemployment stuck above 10%. The region’s economic calendar for the next week looks rather empty: German banks will have a holiday on Monday, European countries will release final manufacturing and services PMIs during the week and the ECB will publish accounts of its latest meeting on Thursday. All these events are of medium importance, so the Deutsche Bank saga and US nonfarm payrolls will be the main market movers. EUR/USD once again failed to settle above the declining 100-week MA, which currently lies in 1.1225 area. Resistance is at 1.1225 and 1.1280 ahead of 1.1360 and 1.1400. At the same time, 50-day MA went above 100-week MA on the daily chart – a sign that buyers are willing to fight, so we don’t expect any strong selloff of the euro. Support is at 1.1160 (200-day MA), 1.1100 (support line from November 2015). Decline below this point will open the way down to 1.1070 and 1.1010.

riki143 Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 GBP/USD: outlook for October 3-7 9/30/2016 GBP/USD remained within the range of the previous week between 1.3055 and 1.2915. The UK’s large current account deficit leaves the currency highly dependent on foreign exchange inflows. The pound is affected by Brexit woes as well as subdued investor sentiment related to concerns over the health of Germany’s Deutsche Bank and Commerzbank. So far the economic figures from UK haven’t been bad. On the contrary, Q2 GDP growth was revised up from 0.6% to 0.7%. Next week Britain will release manufacturing, construction and services PMIs on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday and manufacturing production on Friday. US labor market figures on Friday will also add to the pair’s volatility. The pair’s consolidating at the lower edge of its 3-month range. The area corresponds to the multiyear minimums of the British currency, so it will take strong drivers to pull the pair significantly lower. Still, there’s scope for more decrease to 1.2865 (August low) and 1.2790 (post-Brexit low) on the close below 1.2900. We stick to the view that it will be hard for the sterling to show any significant recovery. The pound looks weaker than other currencies against the greenback. Resistance is at 1.3000, 1.3115 and 1.3180/1.3200. More: https://new.fxbazooka.com/analytics/10706 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riki143 Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 USD/JPY: outlook for October 3-7 9/30/2016 USD/JPY rose from 100.00 to 102.00, but remains limited on the upside by 2016 resistance line. Us dollar was driven higher against yen as Hillary Clinton’s victory at the first US presidential debate and OPEC deal to cut oil production initially improved the market’s risk sentiment. Then, however, demand for the yen as a safe haven increased once again on the back of problems with Deutsche Bank and the doubts that oil exporters will really reduce output. Inflation figures released in Japan came below forecasts. Core consumer prices contracted by 0.5%. Normally such figures would make investors think that the Bank of Japan will intensify its monetary easing. However, there’s speculation that the regulator has reached a limit in stimulus and is no longer able to make the yen decline. Last week the Bank of Japan said that it would target 10-year bond yield at levels around 0%, but this week the market pushed the yield to -0.09%. In order to stick to its target, the BOJ would have to reduce its massive bond purchase program. Such reduction would be interpreted as a sign that the regulator won’t ease policy further, so the yen will strengthen. For now, central bank officials backed away saying that bond yield target isn’t strict and there’s no need to cut stimulus. Still, the doubts about the regulator’s efficiency represent a negative factor for USD/JPY. Next week Japan will publish Tankan manufacturing & services PMIs on Monday. The pair will be driven by the market’s sentiment and US labor market data. Technical levels for the pair remain pretty much the same – 102.00, 103.30 and 104.00 as resistance and 100.00 and 99.00 as support. Despite the recent gains of the pair, USD/JPY will likely aim at lower levels testing support.

riki143 Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 GBP/USD & UK Manufacturing PMI: Sterling still looking for a catalyst 10/3/2016 We start a busy week today with the UK manufacturing PMI at 08:30 GMT, where the analysts are expecting a decline from 53.3 to 52.1. September's release was positive, with an improvement to 53.3 from 48.3, while the August's event was slightly bearish, marking 48.2. However, overall readings for this indicator have been bullish and we could expect a slight bullish number for October. Our technical analysis for GBP/USD at H1 chart is showing a bearish development, as the pair have been respecting the bearish trend line plotted from the September 22nd session's highs and eventually, a weaker-than-expected reading can drive us to test the support level of 1.2921, which was tested during September 26th session. However, if a bullish data comes today, a breakout above the 1.3012 level is highly possible and it could reach the 1.3050 level.

riki143 Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 Gold: bears are not ready for attack 10/3/2016 On the daily chart of gold, as it was expected, the bears once again tested the lower bound of the consolidation area at $1305-1365 per ounce. If the "bears" in the coming days fail to break through support at $ 1307 (the lower bound of the upward trading channel + the lower limit of the ledge in the "Spike and ledge" pattern), we may expect the next rebound. On the hourly chart of gold, bears' failure to update the quotes at theit recent lows at $1313 will tell us about their weakness. Successful test of the correction maximum at 2, followed by the test of the resistance line at $1320 will increase the risks of activation of the AB = CD and "Shark" patterns with targets at $1330 and $1339.

There are targets of the AB = CD and "Shark" patterns. On the GBP/USD hourly chart, the breakout of support at 1,291, or rebound from the diagonal resistance at 1.2985 will create the prerequisites for the further slide of the quotes down to 1.2825. Recommendations: SELL 1,291 SL 1,2965 TP1 1,2825 TP2 1,28 SELL 1,2965 SL 1,3020 TP1 1,2865 TP2 1,28.

Bears faced a support at 1.1165, so the market is likely going to reach the nearest resistance near the downtrend line. If a pullback from this level happens, there’ll be an opportunity to have a decline towards the 89 Moving Average. There’s a “Pennant” pattern, so the price is likely going to achieve a resistance at 1.1269 – 1.1278 during the day. However, if we see a pullback from this area, bears will probably try to catch the nearest support at 1.1212.

However, there’s a local bullish “V-Bottom” pattern, so the pair is likely going to reach the nearest resistance at 1.2979 – 1.2995. If a pullback from this area happens, there’ll be an opportunity to see a bearish price movement in the direction of the next support at 1.2913. We’ve got a local “Double Bottom”, so the market is likely going to achieve the 55 Moving Average in the short term.

riki143 Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 Morning Forex outlook 10/3/2016 Today, we will keep our eyes wide open not to miss the series of manufacturing releases from the Eurozone (no great changes are expected) and from the North American continent. A pinnacle event of the day is the FPC Meeting Minutes following the manufacturing release from the UK (they are expected to be rather promising to the British pound after the recent depreciation). GBP is perhaps a main rotator of the forex money machine on Monday morning. There was news that UK prime-minister T. May will trigger Article 50 by the end of March next year. Once she does so, the negotiation process for UK exit from the EU will start. Pound fell from the late US trading levels loosing 56 pips, but then it managed to recoup and reach the 1.293 mark. We will we waiting for manufacturing release later on this Monday and the thorough records and statements from the UK Financial Policy Committee. Manufacturing PMI is expected to reach 52.1 in September which would indicate a relevant industry expansion of the UK economy. AUD didn’t experience any changes on the session. Sunday report from Australian Industry Group indicates Manufacturing Index increased by 2.9 points in September from August 46.9 due to vigorous activity in the food& beverages sub-sector which managed to recover after August contraction. Comments from the leading manufacturers in September shows us a steady improvement in Australian demand and exports in many sectors after August dip. We don’t expect any adjustments of the interest rate at the RBA’s meeting scheduled for this Tuesday. The series of further rate cuts are expected in 2017. JPY has been more active on last session. We may track a steady upsurge of the USD/JPY currency pair. Now it continues to oscillate around the 101 level, ticking higher to 101.6 and rolling back to 101.5 – 101.3 marks. Sunday Tankan manufacturing and non-manufacturing releases hardly made any differences to the yen moves. Indexes didn’t show us great changes. September Over the weekend we also got official China PMIs for September. And here we observe a slight miss for the manufacturing PMI in comparison with the previous month. In general, Chinese economy performs well. According to the estimates of Australian and New Zealand Banking Group, China’s GDP will expand by 6.7% in the third quarter.

riki143 Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 Salvation plans for Deutsche Bank 10/3/2016 Shades lengthen over the Deutsche Bank as it struggles to settle the US Department of Justice’s probe into alleged mis-selling of mortgage securities. The fine threatens to undermine investor and client confidence in the biggest German lender. Here comes a main question how to restore the client trust and wriggle out of this difficulty. Many analysts suggest several scenarios of what the DB should do to tackle its problems. The optimists still hope that DB will manage to settle the case with $3bn-5bn. As it was stated earlier the Bank expected this turn of event (nobody dodges from the sword of justice) and set off some money (€5.5bn) to cover the cost of litigation. If the US Department of Justice is condescending, the Bank will be salvaged. Its share prices will regain and rise from its three-decades lows; the client confidence will be shored up, and Deutsche will save its reputation of a big lender. The crisis will be over. In contrast, if the DoJ demands more than 5bn settlement, the DB will have to tighten its belt and consider other options to stay afloat. The first one that comes to mind is to deleverage the balance sheet by selling Postbank, but it is difficult to realize, because of a lack of buyers and poor market conditions. This situation with the DB may force large asset managers and corporate treasurers to jump from the train running to abyss. Sharp cuts of client revenue will make rating agencies to downgrade the bank (even more clients will be willing to run away, if it happens). As all DB’s client disappear, the everybody’s eyes will go to the Angela Merkel’s government. With less than a year away from a general election and placed under fire of the decision to allow vast numbers of immigrants to flow into the country, we doubt that Ms. Merkel will come to the rescue. It could be a political suicide for chancellor herself and for her colleagues. Perhaps, the only thing the government could do in this situation it is to engineer a merger of DB with Commerzbank. Although this measure is considered to be of a last resort due to rising discontent among bank officials, it could save Deutsche Bank without recourse to the state aid. In this article, we painted a rather gloomy picture of the DB’s present and future. But maybe it is in fact not that bad as it seems to be. A few analysts believe that all these Deutsche’s problems might be exaggerated by the banks’ ?1 enemy – speculators. According to the DB’s Chief Executive Officer John Cryan, the bank’s balance sheet is healthier than at any point in the past two decades. The bank has enough liquidity to stay afloat. Moreover, even if there is a shortage of available money on hand, Deutsche can always access significant additional liquidity from the ECB. So, is investors’ rush to leave the sinking ship a bit preliminary? We will wait for more news/decisions on this matter to come up with a clear answer to this question.

riki143 Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 EUR/USD: bulls going to break local high 10/3/2016 There’s a “Hammer” at the local low, which has been strongly confirmed. So, the price is likely going to get a support on the nearest Moving Averages. If a pullback from this lines happens, there’ll be an opportunity to have another upward movement. As we can see on the Daily chart, here’s a support by 34 & 89 Moving Averages. Considering the huge shadow of Friday’s candle, bulls are likely going to reach the nearest resistance line. We’ve got an “Engulfing” at the last low. Meanwhile, the 21 Moving Average has acted as a support, so we’ve got a pullback from this line. Under this circumstances, the market is likely going to test Friday’s high. More: https://new.fxbazooka.com/analytics/10725 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
