Disparity
USDJPY to fall further as it trades sharply below 52-week SMAThe tide has turned on USD/JPY as the pair trades sharply below its 52-week Moving Average. Said moving average has been a strong marker of trends in the USD/JPY for the past two decades, and staying below the 52W SMA keeps our focus lower.
Hidden divergence on the EURUSDThe 50-day Disparity Index shows a hidden divergence on the EURUSD that has formed over the past 2 months. It's easy to say that the euro's bearish trend is strengthening ever since the high made at $1.103 on Monday, but it's important to highlight the fact that the presence of such a bearish divergence will likely lead to a break of March's lows ($1.046) with possible continued selling pressure all the way down to parity (this is almost every sellers target it seems like, so why not). Divergences provide momentum setups to profit from strengthening of trends, and in such a case it's recommended to hold short positions for as long as possible.
