The EURUSD briefly tested 1.1730 level before easing back. The inside bar formation could trigger a near term breakout off Wednesday\u2019s highs and lows. On the 4-hour chart, price action continues to remain in a consolidation mode that is now shaping out into a descending wedge pattern. An upside breakout could trigger a move toward 1.1846 \u2013 1.1824 level of resistance.<\/p>\n<p>How do you think the EUR will progress? If you feel confident enough, why not open an account and trade?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Intraday Analysis 25th May 2018 USDJPY<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.orbex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/2-USDJPYH4-2505-768x384.png\" alt=\"usdjpy\" \/><\/p>\n<p>USDJPY (109.57): The USDJPY broke down below the support level of 109.57 \u2013 109.43 as price action fell just a few pips above the next main support at 109.90. The rebound off this level saw prices retesting this support level which is likely to act as support. In the near term, we expect to see USDJPY most likely to decline back for a firm retest of support at 108.90. To the upside, in the event of a breakout above the support\/resistance level, then we can expect further gains to push USDJPY back to 110.85 level of resistance.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Intraday Analysis 25th May 2018 XAUUSD<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.orbex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/3-XAUUSDH4-2505-768x384.png\" alt=\"xauusd\" \/><\/p>\n<p>XAUUSD (1302.77): Gold prices posted some modest gains as price action managed to touch the resistance level near 1304 \u2013 1301 level. Price action is required to breakout above this resistance level in order to post further gains. The next main target to the upside will be at 1325 level. To the downside if price slip below the resistance, then we expect to see further consolidating taking place within 1304 \u2013 1301 level and 1282 support.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Orbex UK second revised GDP to show no change Intraday Analysis 25th May 2018 The U.S. dollar was seen falling slightly on the day.
