GBP/USD

The negative near-term sentiment drives the pair lower, with initial support at 1.5950 being cracked. Yesterday’s bull- rally through 1.6000 and quick reversal to the initial levels, confirmed near-term bullish stance. Overall negative tone in the near-term studies, keeps the downside under pressure, with descending 20 day EMA limiting the upside at 1.6000 for now.

USD/JPY

With 4h indicators sliding into negative territory and descending EMA’s capping the upside, immediate risk is seen on a break below 79.80/75 that would trigger stronger corrective action towards 78.63, Fib 38.2% of 77.94/80.67 rally and key near-term level at 79.27, 30 Oct low / 50% retracement. Only lift above 80.40 would shift focus higher again.
