From last week, DXY becomes overbought in the middle 105.00’s and oversold at 103.90’s. DXY traded 104.12 lows and traveled to 105.88 highs into massively overbought territory. DXY remains severely overbought with limited upside potential and every ability to trade 103.00's.
USD/JPY's big line break this week at 135.45 traded to 135.35 then 137.90 highs. USD/JPY was deeply overbought at 137.00's but allowed to travel a few pips higher due to DXY overbought to overbought status. A gamble trade to 137.00's is the same as saying overbought USD/CAD must travel to more overbought at 1.3800's to accommodate USD/JPY at 137.00's. The easier and more profitable trade was long USD/JPY from vital 135.45 to just under 137.00's then short at the highs.
USD/JPY began this week: 136.06, 136.59, 137.64. USD/JPY begins next week: 136.19, 136.69, 137.68. USD/JPY's averages changed but USD/JPY's position remains constant to no change status. Big break for lower is now 135.69.
EUR/USD ia trading around vital 1.0559 Vs next level below at 1.0519. Limited upside exists to DXY as limited downside exist to EUR.
EUR/USD next week will trade 2 X's DXY.
GBP/USD is not only oversold from vital 1.1992 but also from 1.2500's. GBP/USD could travel to low 1.2100's next week and EUR/USD to 1.0700's.
From last week: GBP/JPY shorts at low 164.00’s targets low 163.00’s until the break at 162.68. GBP/JPY traded to 163.84 to lows 163.00 then the break materialized at 162.68 and traded to 161.60 lows. Higher for GBP/JPY must clear 162.62.
GBP/JPY is inching closer to the 159.21 target. This means all JPY cross pairs trade much lower for about another 300 pips as GBP/JPY will take all JPY cross pairs lower.
Deeply oversold AUD/USD has every potentil to trade middle 0.6700's next week and NZD/USD to high 0.6181 and 0.6199.
