The Analytical Overview of the Main Currency Pairs on 2021.06.30

by JustForex

The EUR/USD currency pair

Technical indicators of the currency pair:
  • Prev Open: 1.1926
  • Prev Close: 1.1896
  • % chg. over the last day: -0.25%

The situation with the EUR/USD currency pair remains mixed, with a slight advantage in favor of the euro. The consumer price index data will be published in Europe today. This is the most important indicator of inflation. If the data is worse than expected, it may negatively impact the European currency and lead to a decrease in the EUR/USD quotes.

Trading recommendations
  • Support levels: 1.1835, 1.1809
  • Resistance levels: 1.1911, 1.1973, 1.2002, 1.2050, 1.2109, 1.2144, 1.2174, 1.2212

The trend is still bearish, with sellers’ pressure gaining strength again. The price managed to break down through the support level of 1.1911. The MACD indicator is inactive. Under such market conditions, traders are better to look for sell trades from resistance levels. There is no optimal entry point for long positions on the H1 timeframe now.

Alternative scenario: if the price breaks out through the 1.2144 resistance level and fixes above, the general uptrend is likely to resume.

The GBP/USD currency pair

Technical indicators of the currency pair:
  • Prev Open: 1.3879
  • Prev Close: 1.3841
  • % chg. over the last day: -0.27%

The fundamental picture in the UK has not changed. Coronavirus restrictions in the United Kingdom are still holding back business activity in various sectors of the economy. Given that the dollar index remains unchanged, the situation is not in favor of the British pound. The quarterly GDP data is expected today.

Trading recommendations
  • Support levels: 1.3835, 1.3801, 1.3767
  • Resistance levels: 1.3931, 1.4002, 1.4075, 1.4101, 1.4138, 1.4191

The GBP/USD trend is bearish on the H1 timeframe. The price is trading near the moving average, while the MACD indicator is inactive again. Under such market conditions, traders are better to look for both sell trades from the resistance levels and buy trades from the support levels on the intraday timeframes.

Alternative scenario: if the price breaks out through the 1.4101 resistance level and consolidates above, the bearish scenario is likely to be canceled.

The USD/JPY currency pair

Technical indicators of the currency pair:
  • Prev Open: 110.63
  • Prev Close: 110.54
  • % chg. over the last day: -0.08%

The USD/JPY currency pair is trading in a narrow price range ahead of the support level of 110.47. Such price behavior usually occurs before a breakdown. The fundamental background remains mixed, as both the dollar index and the Japanese yen show weakness.

Trading recommendations
  • Support levels: 110.47, 110.23, 109.83, 109.62, 109.31
  • Resistance levels: 110.82, 111.09, 111.48

The trend remains bullish. The price is trading at the moving average level, and the MACD indicator is in the negative zone. Under such market conditions, traders are better to look for buy trades from support levels, but only after the buyers’ initiative appears. Sell positions can be considered on intraday timeframes after the breakdown of the 110.47 support level.

Alternative scenario: if the price falls below 109.83, the general downtrend is likely to resume.

USD/JPY
There is no news feed for today.

The USD/CAD currency pair

Technical indicators of the currency pair:
  • Prev Open: 1.2331
  • Prev Close: 1.2400
  • % chg. over the last day: +0.56%

The USD/CAD currency pair is slowly but steadily growing. The Canadian dollar is a commodity currency and correlates with oil prices. Oil prices corrected for the last 2 days, which led to a slight weakening of the Canadian currency. The price has reached the resistance level of 1.2404, so a pullback is possible.

Trading recommendations
  • Support levels: 1.2347, 1.2312, 1.2251, 1.2190, 1,2148 1.2121, 1.2096
  • Resistance levels: 1.2404, 1.2478, 1.2519

Technically, the trend remains bullish. The price is trading above the moving average, and the MACD indicator is in the positive zone with no signs of reversal. Under such market conditions, it is best to trade on the lower timeframes. Buyers may look for buy trades from support levels. Traders can look for entry points on intraday timeframes for sell positions, but only with short targets because it is trading against the trend.

Alternative scenario: if the price breaks down through the 1.2190 support level and fixes below, the downtrend is likely to be resumed.

Dollar makes a move

By Lukman Otunuga Research Analyst, ForexTime

Despite a disappointing non-manufacturing Chinese PMI reading, Asian bourses are holding up today with eyes on US jobs data and the latest Eurozone inflation print. The Chinese composite PMI unexpectedly fell from 54.2 to 52.9 earlier this morning with details showing a stabilisation of the manufacturing gauge but a setback in the non-manufacturing reading. New restrictive measures in Gaundong to contain a regional Covid outbreak are mainly responsible for this with waning external demand contrasting with rising domestic orders.

Risk mood improved

Markets took comfort in Moderna saying that its vaccine is effective against the Delta variant of the virus with the S&P500 marginally higher and closing at all-time highs. The tech-laden Nasdaq also notched another record peak rising for a sixth day in seven with Facebook pulling back after hitting the magical $1 trillion market cap level. Also adding to more positive sentiment was the US Consumer confidence which jumped with a bounce both in expectations and the current situation.

The dollar went bid breaking out of its recent range and is heading towards the post-Fed highs.

In EUR/USD, this means we are trading below 1.19 again with eyes on the recent cycle lows at 1.1847.

With the monthly US labour market report out on Friday, focus will be on US ADP data today which will be monitored for any signs that private sector hiring has quickened. Although not a great predictor of the NFP headline number, a big beat or miss today can cause near-term volatility. Expectations are for a punchy 600k reading with many analysts hopeful that jobs data comes in strong going forward.

Eurozone inflation subdued

Consensus expects headline and core Eurozone inflation prints to remain relatively subdued at 1.9% y/y and 0.9% y/y respectively when the data is released this morning. Country figures already pointed to a slowdown and these are fairly tame readings compared to those elsewhere. With the outlook remaining muted, the ECB will continue to be one of the last remaining dovish central banks on the block.

Intraday Market Analysis – USD Hits Resistance

By Orbex

USDJPY struggles to clear offers

USDJPY

The Japanese yen bounces back after a rise in April’s retail trade figure, while the US dollar struggles to consolidate its gains above the psychological level of 111.00.

Yesterday’s bullish momentum above 110.85 has faded. This suggests a lack of commitment from the buy-side. Short-term price action could become vulnerable if 110.40 fails to hold. The pair may retest 109.80 should that happen.

Otherwise, by lifting offers around 111.10 the bulls could expect a runaway rally towards February 2020’s peak at 112.00.

AUDUSD seeks support

AUDUSD

The Australian dollar pulls back as risk appetite abates earlier this week. The pair has met resistance at 0.7610, previously a demand zone now turned into a supply zone.

Sentiment remains mixed after the mid-June sell-off. Indeed, buyers are likely to test the water before committing themselves.

The Aussie may seek support at 0.7540. Further down, 0.7500 is a critical level to keep the rebound relevant. On the upside, a break above 0.7610 may attract momentum players and open the path towards 0.7700.

GER 30 awaits breakout

DAX

The Dax 30 inches up, thanks to the support from last week’s recovery momentum.

Price action has spent the past week consolidating gains after a V-shaped rebound. The narrowing range indicates stiff pressure from both sides and a breakout would dictate the direction for the days to come.

The bulls are striving to push back to the previous high at 15800. Then the psychological all-time high of 16000 would be within reach. On the downside, a drop below 15500 would prolong the correction to 15400.

The Analytical Overview of the Main Currency Pairs on 2021.06.29

by JustForex

The EUR/USD currency pair

Technical indicators of the currency pair:
  • Prev Open: 1.1931
  • Prev Close: 1.1924
  • % chg. over the last day: -0.06%

The EUR/USD currency pair situation is now becoming mixed, with a slight advantage in favor of a stronger euro. The ECB printed more euro, increasing the money supply (liquidity) in the EU countries, which is a negative factor for the euro. On the other hand, the dollar index is still in the same place. As a result, the EUR/USD currency pair is consolidating in a range.

Trading recommendations
  • Support levels: 1.1911, 1.1835, 1.1809
  • Resistance levels: 1.1973, 1.2002, 1.2050, 1.2109, 1.2144, 1.2174, 1.2212

The price is trading above the level of 1.1911 but below the moving average line. The MACD indicator is inactive. The trend is still bearish, but sellers’ pressure is weak. Under such market conditions, traders can look for both sell trades from resistance levels and buy trades from support levels with short targets.

Alternative scenario: if the price breaks out through the 1.2144 resistance level and fixes above, the general uptrend is likely to resume.

The GBP/USD currency pair

Technical indicators of the currency pair:
  • Prev Open: 1.3911
  • Prev Close: 1.3877
  • % chg. over the last day: -0.24%

The GBP/USD currency pair continues to decline slowly. Coronavirus restrictions in the United Kingdom are still holding back business activity in various sectors of the economy. Given that the dollar index remains unchanged, the situation is not in favor of the British pound. However, the UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson remains confident that the country would be able to fully re-open in July as planned.

Trading recommendations
  • Support levels: 1.3835, 1.3801, 1.3767
  • Resistance levels: 1.3931, 1.4002, 1.4075, 1.4101, 1.4138, 1.4191

The GBP/USD trend is bearish on the H1 timeframe. The price is trading near the moving average, while the MACD indicator is in the negative zone but with signs of a reversal. Under such market conditions, traders are better to look for both sell trades from the resistance levels and buy trades from the support levels on the intraday timeframes.

Alternative scenario: if the price breaks out through the 1.4101 resistance level and consolidates above, the bearish scenario is likely to be canceled.

The USD/JPY currency pair

Technical indicators of the currency pair:
  • Prev Open: 110.76
  • Prev Close: 110.61
  • % chg. over the last day: -0.13%

Yesterday, the USD/JPY currency pair tried to hold above the resistance level of 110.82, but sellers returned the price to its previous level, forming a false breakout zone. As a result, the price corrected again to the moving average line and to the nearest support level, where the buyers manage to keep the pressure of sellers. Japan’s unemployment rate increased from 2.8% to 3% in May, the highest rate in the last 5 months.

Trading recommendations
  • Support levels: 110.47, 110.23, 109.83, 109.62, 109.31
  • Resistance levels: 110.82, 111.09, 111.48

The trend remains bullish. The price is trading at the level of the moving average, and the MACD indicator is in the negative zone. Under such market conditions, traders are better to look for buy trades from support levels. Sell positions can be considered on intraday timeframes after the breakdown of the 110.47 support level.

Alternative scenario: if the price falls below 109.83, the general downtrend is likely to resume.

  • Prev Close: 1.2338
  • % chg. over the last day: +0.38%

The USD/CAD currency pair is still trading in a narrow price range, but there are the first signs of initiative from the buyers. The 1.2312 resistance level was broken, and now it is important not to let the price fall below this point. The fundamental background remains mixed, with a slight advantage to the strengthening of the Canadian dollar, i.e., the fall of USD/CAD quotes.

Trading recommendations
  • Support levels: 1.2312, 1.2251, 1.2190, 1,2148 1.2121, 1.2096
  • Resistance levels: 1.2404, 1.2478, 1.2519

Technically, the trend remains bullish. The price is trading above the moving average, and the MACD indicator went into the positive area. Under such market conditions, it is best to trade on the lower timeframes. Buyers may look for buy trades from support levels. There are no optimal entry points for sell trades right now.

Alternative scenario: if the price breaks down through the 1.2190 support level and fixes below, the downtrend is likely to be resumed.

Muted markets looking for next driver

By Lukman Otunuga Research Analyst, ForexTime

Financial markets have started the final week of June and of the quarter in subdued mood with a modest bid to the dollar amid narrow ranges across the FX spectrum. Many traders are already looking to the US employment data in the form of the non-farm payrolls report and average hourly earnings which is released on the first Friday of every month. That said, we do have other risk events to look out for this week including Eurozone inflation figures, an OPEC meeting and ISM manufacturing data out of the US.

Wall street’s fear gauge, the Vix, has picked up off the lows but is still below its long-term average as stocks are trading in the red in Europe. After making new record highs at the end of last week on the back of President Biden’s bipartisan infrastructure deal, there is still a long way to go before that becomes ratified and passed. In the meantime, worries over the spread of the delta variant globally are concerning many, even as vaccination rates pick up.

USD mixed to start NFP week

With the hawks on the Fed hopeful that the headline NFP print comes in above one million job gains, another softer than expected jobs report would cast a doubt over any early rowing back in policy measures. That would be the third straight month that the number has disappointed after the 559k and 278k jobs reported in May and April.

The dollar is treading water at the moment locked between the highs of the recent move and last week’s lows where the 200-day SMA resides. US yields remain materially low which means investors will continue to look for better returns elsewhere over the medium term while this situation prevails.

Sterling leading major on the day

The tennis major at Wimbledon kicks off today and with many traders also glancing nervously at a certain soccer match tomorrow, minds may wander over the next few sessions! However, GBP has started the week on a strong footing (a good sign for sporting endeavours?) with the new health secretary firmly on the side of ending current restrictions as planned on 19 July. In what is a quiet week for UK data, we do get Bank of England Governor Bailey speaking on Thursday to focus the minds.

Cable is holding Friday’s range so far in the low 1.39s with the 100-day SMA at 1.3952 acting as near-term resistance ahead of the 1.40 barrier. Last Tuesday’s low at 1.3862 should offer decent support after which 1.38 is a much more significant level.

Ichimoku Cloud Analysis 28.06.2021 (EURUSD, GBPJPY, AUDUSD)

Article By RoboForex.com

EURUSD, “Euro vs US Dollar”

EURUSD is trading at 1.1925; the instrument is moving below Ichimoku Cloud, thus indicating a descending tendency. The markets could indicate that the price may test the cloud’s downside border at 1.1930 and then resume moving downwards to reach 1.1745. Another signal in favor of a further downtrend will be a rebound from the descending channel’s upside border. However, the bearish scenario may be canceled if the price breaks the cloud’s upside border and fixes above 1.2045. In this case, the pair may continue growing towards 1.2135.

EURUSD
Risk Warning: the result of previous trading operations do not guarantee the same results in the future

GBPJPY, “Great Britain Pound vs Japanese Yen”

GBPJPY is trading at 153.82; the instrument is moving above Ichimoku Cloud, thus indicating an ascending tendency. The markets could indicate that the price may test the cloud’s upside border at 153.50 and then resume moving upwards to reach 156.25. Another signal in favor of a further uptrend will be the formation of a Head & Shoulders reversal pattern. However, the bullish scenario may no longer be valid if the price breaks the cloud’s downside border and fixes below 152.50. In this case, the pair may continue falling towards 151.55. To confirm further growth, the asset must break the resistance level and fix above 155.55, thus completing the above-mentioned pattern.

GBPJPY
Risk Warning: the result of previous trading operations do not guarantee the same results in the future

AUDUSD, “Australian Dollar vs US Dollar”

AUDUSD is trading at 0.7588; the instrument is moving inside Ichimoku Cloud, thus indicating a sideways tendency. The markets could indicate that the price may test Tenkan-Sen and Kijun-Sen at 0.7595 and then resume moving downwards to reach 0.7395. Another signal in favor of a further downtrend will be a rebound from the descending channel’s upside border. However, the bearish scenario may no longer be valid if the price breaks the cloud’s upside border and fixes above 0.7665. In this case, the pair may continue growing towards 0.7755.

Fibonacci Retracements Analysis 28.06.2021 (GOLD, USDCHF)

Article By RoboForex.com

XAUUSD, “Gold vs US Dollar”

As we can see in the H4 chart, XAUUSD is correcting after finishing a wave to the downside. Possibly, the pair may complete the pullback and resume falling. The previous decline has reached 61.8% fibo, so the next one may reach 76.0% fibo and the low at 1736.33 and 1676.78 respectively. At the same time, a breakout of the resistance at 1916.52 may lead to a further rising movement towards the mid-term targets, which are 61.8% and 76.0% fibo at 1922.95 and 1979.00 respectively but this scenario is rather unlikely.

GOLD_H4
Risk Warning: the result of previous trading operations do not guarantee the same results in the future

The H1 chart shows a more detailed structure of the current correction. After testing 23.6% fibo, the pair may continue growing towards 38.2% and 50.0% fibo at 1815.32 and 1832.37 respectively. The support is the low at 1760.83. If the price breaks this level, the asset will complete the correction and resume trading downwards.

GOLD_H1
Risk Warning: the result of previous trading operations do not guarantee the same results in the future

USDCHF, “US Dollar vs Swiss Franc”

As we can see in the H4 chart, USDCHF is trying to finish the correction and start a new rising impulse towards 61.8% and 76.0% fibo at 0.9264 and 0.9342 respectively. The key support is the low at 0.8926.

USDCHF_H4
Risk Warning: the result of previous trading operations do not guarantee the same results in the future

In the H1 chart, after breaking 23.6% fibo, USDCHF has failed to reach 38.2% fibo at 0.9119. At the same time, a convergence on MACD may hint at a new rising impulse towards the high at 0.9239. On the other hand, if the price forms a new structure to the downside, its targets will be 38.2% and 50.0% fibo at 0.9119 and 0.9083 respectively.

GBPUSD Double Zigag To Complete Primary Wave Ⓩ

By Orbex

The formation of GBPUSD hints at the development of a corrective trend. Most likely, a triple zigzag is currently under construction. This consists of sub-waves Ⓦ-Ⓧ-Ⓨ-Ⓧ-Ⓩ of the primary degree.

The first four parts of this construction are fully completed. In April, the bulls began to push prices up in the final actionary wave Ⓩ. Most likely, wave Ⓩ will have the structure of a double combination (W)-(X)-(Y) of the intermediate degree.

Waves (W) and (X) have ended and the development of the last bullish wave (Y) has just begun.

It is possible that the price in the wave (Y) will rise to 1.4490, that is, significantly above the maximum of 1.4254. At that level, intermediate wave (Y) will be at 123.6% of wave (W).

An alternative scenario suggests that the market has completed only part of the global triple zigzag, that is wave Ⓨ.

Therefore, we could expect the development of the second intervening wave Ⓧ. This wave could have the internal structure of an intermediate double zigzag (W)-(X)-(Y).

In the near future, market participants could see the end of the intermediate zigzag wave (X). Then the price will continue to fall in the last wave (Y) to 1.3449. At that level, wave Ⓧ will be at 76.4% of wave Ⓨ.
