Pips
Another 180 pips to go on AUD/USD...0.6700 is the target we've suggested before on AUD/USD and after the recent volatile markets, we are moving lower at a rapid pace. Tomorrow holds more high impact news so make sure to trade safe.
More USD strength is expected over the next couple of weeks, which should keep the momentum bearish on this pair.
GBP/USD ready for another leg to the downside?...There seems to be an everlasting weakness for the pound as the lacklustre story continues. As for the technical side, we are looking bearish here on the GBP/USD with potential for the next leg to the downside to occur. Overall from a weekly perspective we are looking ahead at 1.1800 being a long term downside target.
GOLD Downside targets are set...$1,800 followed by $1,750 are the respected downside targets for XAU/USD. Looking at the data for the rest of the week it is possible to start seeing the precious metal fall over with momentum heading into next week.
We will stay updated on this instrument with our short bias and see if we get further downside movement in this scenario.
USD/CAD awaiting next confirmation...These past few days we have had our eyes on USD/CAD which is at a crucial level. Approaching 1.2500 this level is likely to be achieve shortly being a 4-hour fib D extension level, but then are we going to break the supportive structure looking left or are we going to revisit the descending trendline?
It is possible for a sharp movement back up if the dollar can gain strength over the remaining jobless claims and sentiment for this week. Further downside momentum could also lead the pair 100-200 pips lower so we are patiently awaiting confirmation. Overall we are anticipating a bullish correction on this pair.
GBPAUD Holding on at vulnerable support...As the UK goes into a 4 day weekend with the Jubilee bank holiday the pound is looking very desperate especially on the GBP/AUD. It is currently holding onto support arround the 1.7450 region and looking at previous downside breakouts at this level in the past we have seen a 200 pip sharp movement which could be very worrying for the pair.
On the higher timeframes around the weekly and daily it also look extremely bearish and here on the 4 hour we can see all of the moving averages pointing down providing a resistance for the pair.
Movements over the coming weeks on this pair will in very interesting to watch.
Possible EUR/JPY downside breakout next week...We have had a week of rest bite for most currencies as the dollar eases of its bullish pressure.
As we look ahead to next week, we can see multiple patterns emerging for potential euro weakness which may provide shorting opportunities on EUR/JPY for a bearish leg to the downside. Obviously we will need confirmation of the counter trend ascending line breakout and closure along with a momentum shift back to the downside.
Potential targets for the downside are seen near 131.50 which also lines up with the daily 200MA. We would also need USD dominance to take over once more to drive the price down on this pair.
EUR/JPY downside leg looking prominent...After analysing the EUR/JPY we can see a potential short opportunity lining up. 136.50 could provide as a fantastic area to look for a bounce on this 4-hour descending trendline.
We have some EUR fundamentals heading into this afternoon. Ultimately the downside targets are 131.50 then 130.50. If we get this movement to play out, it will now likely occur over next week.
Next downside leg visualised on AUD/USD...After some recent success on this pair its time to have a look at the next forecast. 0.7100 seems to be an ideal region for the pair to pull back up to before taking another plummet lower.
The long term monthly downside target still remains at 0.6700 but we can see more manipulation coming around these daily moving averages. Lets see if we can get a further pullback before going short.
Still lots more of volatile US action in terms of fundamentals coming this week so make sure to trade safe.
