Technical
Monthly: Broken out of the channel formation to the downside. This is negative for sentiment and the downtrend has potential to return. A lower correction is expected. We have a 50% Fibonacci pullback level of 11148 from 8695 to 13601.
Weekly: The bearish engulfing candle on the weekly chart is negative for sentiment. A bearish Head and Shoulders is forming. A break of 11703 is needed to confirm follow through negative momentum. A sequence of weekly lower lows and highs has been posted.
Daily: A sequence of daily lower lows and highs has been posted. As this corrective sequence continues we look to set shorts on a rally at better risk/reward levels. Previous support level of 12102 broken. A mild correction has been posted from yesterday’s low, this is seen as a retest of the breakout level. Further downside is expected although we prefer to set shorts at our bespoke resistance levels at 12100, resulting in improved risk/reward. Expect trading to remain mixed and volatile.

Risk Warning
Trading spot foreign exchange and futures on margin carries a high level of risk and may not be suitable for all investors. You may lose all your capital. Losses can exceed deposits. Past performance is not indicative of future results. The high degree of leverage can work against you as well as for you. Before deciding to invest in spot foreign exchange or futures you should carefully consider your investment objectives, level of experience, and risk appetite. If you are in any doubt about investment or the mechanics of such products, you should seek independent financial advice.
If you purchase a commodity option, your capital is at risk and you may sustain a total loss of the premium and all of the transaction cost.
If you purchase or sell a commodity future or sell a commodity option, your capital is at risk and you may sustain a total loss of the initial margin funds and any additional funds that you deposit with your broker to establish or maintain your position.
If the market moves against your position, your capital is at risk and you may be called upon by your broker to deposit a substantial amount of additional margin funds, on short notice, in order to maintain your position.
If you do not provide the required funds within the prescribed time, your position may be liquidated at a loss, and you will be liable for any resulting deficit in your account.
During certain market conditions, you may find it difficult or impossible to liquidate a trading position. This can occur, for example, when the market makes a "limit move". The placement of contingent orders by you or your trading advisor, such as a "stop-loss" or "stop-limit" order, will not necessarily limit your losses to the intended amount, since the market conditions may make it impossible to execute such orders.
The high degree of leverage that is obtainable through for example futures trading, options trading, Spread Betting, Binary Betting and CFD trading can work against you as well as for you. The use of leverage can lead to large losses as well as gains. This brief statement cannot disclose all the risks and other significant aspects of the commodity markets, including trading shares, currencies, and stock indices. You should therefore carefully study financial trading before you enter the financial markets with the view of buying and selling, including shorting, securities in the market place.
Before deciding to invest in spot foreign exchange or futures you should carefully consider your investment objectives, level of experience, and risk appetite. The possibility exists that you could sustain a loss of some or all of your initial investment and therefore you should not invest money that you cannot afford to lose. You should be aware of all the risks associated with spot foreign exchange and futures trading, and seek advice from an independent financial advisor (IFA) if you have any doubts. All information posted on this website is of our opinion and the opinion of our visitors, and may not reflect the truth.
