MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

The EURUSD fell and formed a bottom at 1.3153 (S2) after which the price rebounded and was able to break above Friday’s support at 1.3206 and it seems it will soon re-test a high at 1.3322. A break above the first resistance level of 1.3285 (R1) would suggest a target of 1.3322 (R2). If the price holds its momentum on the upside we can expect a further rise towards 1.3367 (R3). On the other hand, if the price does not manage to break above 1.3222 (R2) we can expect the pair to retest support at 1.3153 (S2) and a further fall will be limited to 1.3096 (S3).

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

GBPUSD is forming lower tops, as it fell for 3 consecutive days after forming a high at 1.5929 (R3), and formed a strong support level at 1.5729 (S2). Following that we saw a correction towards 1.5799 and it seems the pair will re-test our support levels soon. A break below 1.5757 (S1) would suggest a target of 1.5729 (S2) and a further fall will then focus on the next target at 1.5700 (S3) a technical and psychological level. On the upside, if the price rebounds from the first support level we can expect retesting at 1.5848 (S2). A further rise will then bring focus to the next resistance level at 1.5885 (R2).

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

USDJPY gained momentum and formed higher bottoms and is now moving towards 77.80 (R1) a technical and psychological resistance level for the bulls. If the pair breaks above that level, can expect the price to retest 78.28 (R2). Be on the alert for a correction downwards towards 77.25 (S1) and then a continuation to an upward move. We believe that the bullish pressure will continue. Look for long positions in today's trading session.
