Daily




Hourly





  • On the hourly we have a bearish set up with a possible bear flag and closing wedge.



Expected for this week:

  • This pair is in an uptrend however, a reversal is possible as

a) we may see a correction in the equities indexes

b) the euro rose last week on improved confidence

  • We may probably see a low of the week at around 1.4123.
  • Highs may probably be limited at 1.4290 but if it manages to breakthrough, look for 1.4352 and watch for a triple top.
  • Trade based on price action as it is clearly still in a range and will expect the early week to be rather choppy.

EURUSD: Still Maintains Its Nearer Term Bearishness Below The 1.4200 Level.



EURUSD- With weakness triggered off the 1.4200 level, its July 01’09 high driving the pair further lower though closing marginally at 1.3936, EUR remains vulnerable while holding below the 1.4200 level.

This remains our nearer term view and that leaves further downside prices being targeted with the 1.3831 level, its July 08’09 low seen as the initial support. A close below there will highlight the 1.3738 level, its Mar 19’09 high where a cap is expected.

That level should hold and preserve its medium term uptrend started at the 1.2456 level. However, if that level snaps, lower level prices should shape towards its May 18’09 high at 1.3422. Its weekly RSI has turned lower supporting this view. On the other hand, in order for our downside view to be annulled, a return above the 1.4200 level must be seen followed with a recapture of its YTD high at 1.4339 Beyond there will resume its medium term uptrend towards the 1.4719 level, its Dec 18’08 high. On the whole, while EUR maintains below the 1.4177/1.4200 area, it remains vulnerable to the downside in the nearer term

Directional Bias:
Nearer Term –Bearish
Short Term – Mixed
Medium Term –Bullish

Weekly Chart
  • Closed as a hammer on the weekly chart and rejected 23.6 on the FIBO.
  • Trading between 1.6732 and 1.5965



Daily Chart

  • Using overtaking method, we will expect this pair to trade up on Monday’s open.
  • However, expect some resistance at 1.6386, 1.6523.
  • As we are expecting a stronger dollar, the bull on this pair is limited and 1.6588 may be the high of the week.



Hourly Chart

  • Trading within a triangle during the last hours of the trading week with bottom rejection.
  • Even though the trend was down, there is still momentum for an upside from a top to bottom approach.



Scenario for this pair: Expect an early bullish week to an upside of 1.6386 1.6523 and 1.6588. However as we are in favor of a stronger dollar, we may see a bear ride down to 1.6247, 1.6160, 1.6113, 1.6029.
