Erasing all of Monday’s losses, the pair is now seen trading above the 110 handle, just ahead of a H4 Quasimodo...
For those who read our previous report on the Aussie (see link below) you may recall us mentioning that our team had placed a pending order to buy at 0.7150. This was based on the convergence of a H4 Quasimodo line at 0.7145 and a H4 channel support extended from the low 0.7299. As can be seen from the chart, our order was filled during yesterday’s sessions and...
The bearish pulse clearly continues to beat in the EUR/USD market! In the early hours of yesterday’s London session, a strong wave of offers brought price below the 1.12 handle and then eventually broke through H4 demand at 1.1168-1.1198 (now acting supply). It was only once price entered into the later hours of the American session did we see the shared currency...

Thanks to yesterday’s FOMC-induced rally, H4 action is currently trading just ahead of a nice-looking H4 sell zone. A broken H4 Quasimodo level at 1.3062, a psychological resistance at 1.31 and also a 161.8% Fib extension at 1.3080 (green circle) taken from the base of the H4 AB=CD bearish pattern collectively form a tight resistance zone.

Technically, this has placed H4 price just ahead of a nice-looking H4 demand area...
