FX Market Technical Research

EUR/USD has cleared the 1.3322 resistance and at this point we must allow for a further rally near term towards the top of its 6 month down channel at 1.3520 currently. The 50% retracement at 1.3435 (of the sell off from the October high) is likely to offer some interim resistance en route.

Daily FX Technical Strategy: Euro delayed reaction

The market appears to be slowly responding to the Greek bailout deal given the general euro recovery yesterday. EUR/GBP is leading the charge but if EUR/AUD, EUR/CAD and EUR/NZD all follow through by breaking their respective recent range highs today, then we would expect the short covering move to snowball.

EUR/USD is sidelined and is struggling at the 1.3300/22 area (last weeks high). Failure here should provoke a sell off back to the 50% retracement at 1.2974, this remains our favoured scenario. Below 1.2974 should trigger losses to 1.2891/54, then 1.2775 en route to the 1.2626 recent low.

Daily FX Technical Strategy: US yields carry JPY crosses

While initial JPY weakness emerged in response to optimism for equities, the recent push to 1-3 month range highs for US yields has likely given investors additional reasons to pare back JPY length.

EUR/USD as expected is struggling at the 1.3300/22 area (last weeks high). Failure here should provoke a sell off back to the 50% retracement at 1.2974, this remains our favoured scenario. Below 1.2974 should trigger losses to 1.2891/54, then 1.2775 en route to the 1.2626 recent low.

Technical Analysis

EURUSD looks set to test the recent 1.3322 high but the upside is not a done deal… USDJPY is short-term stretched and some longs should be weathered, paving for a ~79-recheck… AUDUSD could be in a more pronounced correction lower so keep an eye on the recent 1.0629 low…

Daily FX Technical Strategy: EUR/USD changes trend

The speed of the USD snapback yesterday caught us by surprise even though we were wary of renewed USD profit taking at lower levels. Unlike earlier in the week, this time the turnaround has caused chart damage to the 2012 downtrend.

FX Market Technical Research

EUR/USD remains under pressure and we look for 1.3000 to be eroded soon. This will leave the market directly offered and on course for 1.2891/54 (61.8% retracement of recent leg higher) then the 1.2624 January low.

Technical Analysis

A lot of events since yesterday morning. Risk appetite on the defensive with VIX rising (up from a higher low) and EZ worries back on the frontpage. The common currency is again under increasing pressure and EURUSD is checking key support levels,

FX Market Technical Research

EUR/USD has sold off towards the 55 day ma at 1.3067, which together with the 38.2% retracement of the last leg up at 1.3056 appears to be holding the initial test. Rebounds from here should remain tepid – the market has recently severed its short term uptrend, this in conjunction with the divergence of the […]

FX Market Technical Research

EUR/USD remains at the top of the 1.3280 range, leaving the dilemma over direction STILL unresolved. This move can be perceived as either a return to point of break out from the previous uptrend (see weekly chart on the next slide) or a break higher from a bull flag pattern.

Technical Analysis

Still an euro friendly environment with EURUSD remaining on a northern track, aiming ideally at the 1.34-area, EURJPY making a second attempt higher, holding potential for a 104.37 move, EURGBP forming a possible pressure cooker upside formation,
