MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

The EURUSD fell and formed a bottom at 1.3006 (Fibo-38.2% level) a level that has been retested 3 times in the past. If the price manages to hold above 1.3006 (S1) we can expect retest of 1.3080 (R1) and further rise will then focus at 1.3153 (R2). Look for long positions in today’s trading session with a stop loss below 1.2956 (S2).

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

GBPUSD fell sharply yesterday and made a bottom at 1.5643 (S1). If it breaks below that level we can expect the price to retest 1.5594 (S2), a significant strong support level. Be on the alert for a correction upwards towards 1.5723 (R1) and then a continuation to a downward move. Both of our Moving Averages are pointing to a bearish signal. We believe that the bearish pressure will continue.

USDJPY after price formed top at 78.66 (R1), price continued in sideways move between 78.16 support and resistance at 78.66.

Further rise above this level will then focus on 79.67 (R3) resistance and if USD holds its momentum, rise might be limited at 80.00 (R4) resistance.
