Intraday Analysis: The EURUSD continued to rise from 1.3093 (S1) and reached a high this morning at 1.3223 (R1). Following that we can see now that the price is heading for a correction towards the second support level at 1.3050 (S2). A break below that level will be suggesting target at 1.2952(S3). On the other hand, If the price will have enough momentum we can expect a rise and retest towards 1.3223 (R1) and break above that level will be suggesting target at 1.3268 (R2).

Support Levels: 1.5621 | 1.5552 | 1.5515 | 1.5449

Intraday Analysis: GBPUSD broke above 1.5621 (S1) level and formed a top at 1.5741 (R1). It now seems to be heading towards the first support level 1.5621 for a retest. A break below that level would suggest a target of 1.5552 (S2) and a further decline will then focus on the next target at 1.5515 (S3). On the upside, if the price rebounds from the first support level we can expect retesting of 1.5741 (R1), a technical and psychological level. A further rise will then bring focus to the next resistance level at 1.5775 (R2). Look for short positions with a stop loss above 1.5741 (R1) as we expect the pair to move downwards.

Intraday Analysis: USDJPY fell sharply and formed a strong support level close to 76.53 (S1) .A break below that level we suggest further decline towards 76.06 (S2). On the other hand if the price manages to stay above our first support level of 76.53(S1) then the expected target is at 77.28 (R1). Our recommendation for today is long positions with a stop loss below 76.53 (S1)- (-35 pips).
