EURUSD Pullback - Looking to sell

Last week's press conference from Draghi and the ECB instilled some bearish pressure on the Euro. This week, so far we have seen several of the Euro crosses pull back. In focus is the EURUSD. The pair still has further downside potential while below the pre-ECB highs of 1.1330.
So far we have already tested the 50% Fib and pulled back a bit. Can't rule out another leg lower, but short side is favored in these levels.

Fading EURO Weakness through the Yen

The most anticipated event of the week, The ECB Press Conference, has completely with a bearish impact. The outcome was mostly expected in the market as retail traders and bankers alike were positioned on the short side.
There are however some currencies at the moment, which I believe to be weaker then the Euro. The scandies for one (NOK & SEK) but also the JPY which has been in focus as of late.
I have decided to take a long position to try and take advantage of the price differential caused by…

EURAUD Back up against Daily 200SMA ahead of ECB

The EURAUD had a nice move to the downside after rejection of the 200SMA in the second week of October. This week we've seen a quick ramp up to close the day off once again the Moving Average.
The Daily EURAUD Chart above shows the upside resistance at the daily 200MA as well as the 76.4% Fib retracement of the last leg down. This area should offer some major resistance ahead of the ECB. This can be a very important inflection point for swing traders, as a hold here signals a big move to the dow…

On the daily chart, the pair has just broken through it's long term trendline.
The ECB has been implementing monetary policy that is bearish for the EUR, although the effects have not been harsh on this pair as it has been on others, we may see the effects clearer this month as the pair struggles at Monthly resistance

9.1830 - Daily Spike high Sept 30 (Trendline break Candle / Invalidation)

The pair has mostly been consolidating sideways last week after a statement from the ECB that was not as hawkish as the market anticipated.  Will be monitoring the price here to see which way it breaks from consolidation.

After faking to the downside, the pair has been bid up to retest the daily trendline.  So far the candlestick on the 4 hour chart confirm a reversal.

The daily chart has posted a bearish engulfing candle against the trendline.  Expecting a minor retracement before the downtrend starts gaining momentum.  9.1634 is the key resistance level for pressure to remain to the downside.

SEK has been bearish on speculation of a further rate cut after a lower than expected inflation number drove the pair higher in a swift move to retake the trendline.  From a fundamental position, the pair does not have a bearish outlook.  As well the technical setup is considered invalid at this point as the price holds above the trendline

Central Banks looking to cause some moves this week

This coming week we will have some speeches from several of the central banks.
Early in the week RBA Gov Stevens is up, and later we have the Fed's Yellen and ECB Draghi to finish off the week.
The overall expectation for the week does not call for much, but I will be looking for any type of surprise announcement that can shake out the market.
From the RBA - I have blogged about this before. We may see a shift in monetary policy, it all depends on which area they decide to focus on. In the last …

Frankly speaking, I understand nothing about fundamentals, actually haven't even tried to know what they mean.. and I never cared to know in detail about the ECB or the central bank or RBA... or how has inflation or interest rate effected.........................just I understand the end result, whether it is going to have movement or not and would be best if I understand which side...  :)

I lean more to technicals myself as well.  But I think it is worthwhile reading what the central banks have to say, it often gives good clues for the direction, and then use technicals for the trades.

its worthwhile but Its very difficult for me to understand.. have tried few times trying to understand the fundamentals....
