EUR/USD

Consolidation.

  • EUR/USD lies in a bullish trend despite ongoing consolidation. Hourly resistance can be found at 1.2092 (08/09/2017 high) while hourly support lies at 1.1823 (31/08/2017 low). Stronger support is given at a distance at 1.1662 (17/08/2017 low). Expected to show renewed bullish pressures.

  • In the longer term, the momentum is now turning largely positive. We favour a continued bullish bias. Key resistance is holding at 1.2252 (25/12/2014 high) while strong support lies at 1.0341 (03/01/2017 low).

GBP/USD

Surging.

  • GBP/USD is consolidating lower. The pair has broken hourly resistance at 1.3329 (13/09/2017 high). Strong support is given at 1.2774 (24/08/2017 low). Expected to show continued bullish pressures.

  • The long-term technical pattern is reversing. The Brexit vote had paved the way for further decline. Long-term support can be found at 1.1841 (07/10/2017 low). Long-term resistance given around 1.35 is at stake and indicates a long-term reversal in the negative trend. Yet, it is very unlikely at the moment.

USD/JPY

Monitoring resistance area.

  • USD/JPY is now monitoring resistance area around 111. Strong support is located at 107.32 (08/09/2017 high). Expected to show further downside pressures if the pair fails to break resistance at 111.05 (04/08/2017 high).

  • We favor a long-term bearish bias. Support is now given at 99.02 (10/08/2013 low). A gradual rise towards the major resistance at 125.86 (05/06/2015 high) seems unlikely. Expected to decline further support at 93.79 (13/06/2013 low).
