EUR/AUD 1H Chart: Broadening Falling Wedge
Comment: The EUR/AUD currency cross has been on a down-trend since 8th of August; however, this Broadening Falling Wedge pattern started to form on 12th of August. Yesterday the pair approached the August low and from there started its move higher towards the 100-period SMA and later the pattern’s resistance at 1.4365. The short term (1h) technical studies point upwards; strengthening the near term bullish outlook; however, the 4h and daily technicals are more bearish. Moreover, the traders sentiment towards the pair is bearish, with 61.43% of them being short on the pair, thus it is expected that the pattern will remain in effect.
EUR/PLN 4H Chart: Channel Up
Comment: More than a two month long advance performed by EUR/PLN helped the pair to develop an 273-bar long Channel Up pattern started on 9th of June. At the moment the currency pair is fluctuating between the 100-period SMA and weekly S1 at 4.1875/4.1799. Moreover, the pair’s volatility is at the lower levels, thus a break-out is not expected in the near term; although, we are expecting it to be to the down-side, when more applicable time comes. The weekly technical studies are sending bearish signals, while also the pair’s sentiment is strongly bearish, with 71.74% of the market participants anticipating the Euro to underperform against the Polish currency.
