EUR\/USD<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Euro bounced during yesterday after reaching a major support located at 1.0850 in the weekly chart. However, the current recovery can be short-lived as long as prices continue to trade below 1.1040peak, which represents the post-ECB high.<\/p>\n

Looking at near-term price action, the single currency is likely to extend its correction to around 1.0965\/1.0986 resistance zone, before a new impulsive to the downside begin.<\/p>\n

In the meantime, another scenario should be in mind, if prices manage to hold below yesterday peak, which stands at 1.0945, then another dip below 1.0890-70 support zone can be expected.<\/p>\n

Overall, the pair remain under pressure from a med-term standpoint, and only a daily close above 1.1040 level will cancel this negative outlook.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

GBP\/USD<\/strong><\/p>\n

Cable succeed to jump during the European trading session today, boosted by strong GDP figures in the U.K and we have seen the pair reaching a high of 1.2270 before to retreat sharply in the U.S session.<\/p>\n

In the coming hours, a downside continuation is likely as the Sterling remain weak below 1.2330 peak. Consequently, any rally is likely to be temporary and the we should see another attempt to break below 1.2155 daily support soon.<\/p>\n

In the short-term, the next levels of interest stand between 1.2195\/1.2200 zone and we should see strong sellers around these levels if the pair manage to bounce overnight. While in the downside, a breakdown below 1.2155 support may clear the path for as low as 1.2080.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

AUD\/USD<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Australian Dollar recent rally stalled around 0.7700 psychological barrier yesterday as prices showed a strong negative rejection candle in the daily chart, which reinforced the odds of a potential bearish reversal today.<\/p>\n

For the time being, the pair is testing a major support level located at 0.7585 level and a clear breakdown below it will confirm that the hourly chart has turned bearish again. Meanwhile, further weakness is expected in the following hours, which can send the pair towards 0.7500 handle.<\/p>\n

From a wider angle, the Aussie still bullish as the technical picture is showing an intact higher low structure that began from 0.7143 low. However, when looking at the RSI indicator, a hidden bearish divergence can be a heavy signal about a strong retracement to the downside yet to come.<\/p>\n

In the opposite, a 4-hour close above 0.7635 resistance will invalidate the current expectations.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

USD\/CAD<\/strong><\/p>\n

The pair broke above its daily range that kept prices sideways for more than two-month. Prices overtook 1.3300 barrier which represented the upper side of the recent rangebound, sending a clear message to traders that the pair is likely to extend its positive momentum towards the 1.3450 resistance zone.<\/p>\n

With that in mind, buying the dips was the preferred strategy for most of market participants despite yesterday\u2019s drop following crude Oil inventories. The pair fell to reach a low at 1.3315 which coincide with the 61.8% retracement of the entire cycle that comes from 1.3380 peak to 1.3276 low before to begin another wave to the upside, reinforcing the bullish outlook in USD\/CAD.<\/p>\n

As we can see, the higher low\/ higher high structure remains clear and as far as 1.3276 support is in place, new highs for the month of October are expected and traders should focus on 1.3450 resistance as an ideal target to end a bullish cycle in the 4-hour chart.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

USD\/JPY<\/strong><\/p>\n

The pair turned positive in the daily chart for the first time in more than 6-month as prices succeed to break above 104.50 resistance zone. A weekly close above this resistance should increase the probability for a re-test of 107.50 barrier.<\/p>\n

As of now we will watch 105.60-106.30 resistance zone carefully, as it represents the profit taking area for bulls which may lead to a deeper correction in the coming days. However, the trend is likely to remain bullish above 104.00 psychological support.<\/p>\n

In the flipside, a daily close below 104.00 support, is likely to extend the decline towards 103.50 followed by 103.15 support in extension.<\/p>\n

To conclude, the pair managed to break the bearish trendline that comes from 111.60 high in the weekly chart, in addition the recent price action took the form of a consolidation triangle that confirmed the bullish reversal as prices broke higher from this pattern.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

NZD\/USD<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Kiwi sold-off from 0.7260 level as expected, which represent the 50% retracement of the entire cycle that comes from 0.7482 peak to 0.7031 low. Therefore, a pause in the bullish momentum is likely, and the pair may enter into a short-term corrective phase.<\/p>\n

In the hourly chart, the pair broke below 0.7130 support level and for the time being, another acceleration in the direction of 0.7025 weekly support is highly anticipated. In the other side, an hourly close above 0.7184 peak is needed to confirm a new rally in the direction of 0.7306 resistance.<\/p>\n

Regarding the short-term price action, a breakdown below 0.7107 support should be the trigger for further decline in the direction of 0.7075 followed by 0.7025 weekly support as mentioned above.<\/p>\n
