Traders are in big-time risk aversion mode as more bad news on the Coronavirus outbreak continues to hit the wires. Most notable that seems to have traders running to safe havens. Safe havens like the Greenback have already benefited in the session, while risk currencies like the Aussie (and the major currency most likely affected by this outbreak given...
The symmetrical triangle is a chart formation where the slope of the price’s highs and the slope of the price’s lows converge together to a point where it looks like a triangle. The market is making lower highs and higher lows which means that neither the buyers nor the sellers are pushing the price far enough to make a clear trend. This is also a type of...
Reports of the death toll from the Wuhan coronavirus hitting the 100 marks against the 4,500 confirmed cases brought more bears to the markets’ yard today.

The prospect of reduced economic hit the Australian and New Zealand dollars, with the...
Australia’s strong economic ties with China too and we all know this virus named "Coronavirus" is actually not only affecting the people of china but whole financial markets around the world. Equities have fallen, bond rises and all the safe haven got a pump upward couple of days earlier. Risk currency like Aussie had trouble and safe heaven like yellow metal,...
Lagarde’s surprisingly dovish presser from the U.S. session spooked EUR bulls and this anti-EUR sentiment carried over to the Asian session. The pair looks like it could retrace above the previous area of interest or around daily pivots R2 or 50% of Fibonacci retracement as because the short term moving average may suggest bullish trend but actually the long term...
1-hour time frame, EUR/AUD is trending higher inside a rising channel and the pair is currently testing support. Aussie may have enjoyed a strong run from impressive job data in the Asian session, but it could return those gains to the euro if the ECB sounds more upbeat. Stochastic is indicating oversold conditions or exhaustion among sellers, too. If price action...
Overvalued and exhausted buyers may have some momentum shift soon lower and have some pullback on this pair.
A somewhat dovish set of RBA meeting minutes and a round of negative risk sentiment (likely on the renewed possibility of a no-deal Brexit) has pushed AUD/USD lower. Potential catalysts from upcoming Fed speak and more Australian economic updates later, there is a possibility that we could still see volatility on this pair. If we do see some non-dovish comments...
Potential space for lower in my opinion and as the chart we can see price breaking lower the ascending trendline and support 1.93076 should indicate bearish in power. Boris Johnson and his friends are amending the Brexit bill to NOT allow further extensions. This means that, once the government has set a deadline, the U.K. must stick to it with or without a trade...
Positive expectations for the upcoming U.K. general elections could keep sterling supported throughout the session, especially if polls continue to confirm the Tories’ lead. A couple of medium-tier reports from the U.K weren't actually impressive. Monthly GDP was above the previous but QoQ and YoY were lower than previous no good changes. The construction site...
Actually, the news from the RBA Gov Lowe does not mention the economy nor monetary policy in his speech. RBA Gov Lowe is still confident consumers will spend more. Australian weekly consumer confidence rises to 109.0 this week from 108.1 the previous. China's inflation data for November were better than expected but cpi had good changes more than PPI. Things...
Price is too low to have more selling pressure at the moment and seems oversold. Price at the bottom of ascending trendline and north direction has much space then the south seeing the current condition of the commodity.
Price holding 1.10540 and rising back to the ascending trendline with the breakout above 1.10761 should further indicate a bullish bias for the pair.
EUR / CAD has developed higher lows connected by a longer-term upward trend line and also displays lower stochastic lows. This bullish divergence indicates a rebound may occur. With little eye-catching improvements for leading indicators for the eurozone, in this session, I'm hoping to catch a quick bounce for the shared currency. On the flip side, there might...
Ever seen such a big tea party? Life is all above imagination . Canada’s economic data point to the need for monetary stimulus. Analysts believe that BOC Governor Poloz may finally hint about easing today when he gives a speech in Toronto.

The bilateral chart pattern is seen in the hourly timeframe. ECB: A strong call for unity was made at the October meeting. Daily ATR is around 42 meaning, for now, price is trading below the average (may have some room for upside). It seems like a break for now from the upper trendline of the bilateral chat pattern has occurred. Price was held by this crucial...

Traders seem to be in risk aversion mode to start the week off of negative developments in the U.S.-China trade story. With fear on whether or not we’ll see tariff rollbacks on China, odds have risen that the trade deal may not go forward. This has sent equities, bond yields and oil lower, and seems to be supporting the safe-haven currencies like the Japanese yen.
