UPDATE 5: Kiwi remains well bid as we head into the FOMC decision later today. Unless they deliver a dovish or an extremely hawkish surprise, I think that after the decision technicals will come back into focus. This is also supported by a lack of market moving economic data from New Zealand this week. The pair established a firm foothold above 50 DMA, which I see as the current bull/bear line in sand. Below that, 200 DMA is the first in a series of strong levels all the way down to 0.6950. October high (0.7265) is the initial target before 0.73 and November high (0.74).

UPDATE 6: The reaction after the Wednesday's FOMC decision was telling. The jump in bond yields and the surge in the dollar showed that the markets were priced for a more gradual tightening path than implied by the latest dot plot. Yellen's endorsement of the dot plot was another contributing factor. Even though it may seem that the dollar moved too far too fast, the rally looks very strong and I think we haven't seen the top yet. With this kind of momentum it is possible that the usual year-end thin holiday liquidity will mean more volatility rather than ranges.

UPDATE 7: Better than expected New Zealand GDP for Q3 didn't have much of an impact as Q2 was revised lower by an equal amount. U.S./New Zealand bond spreads have been falling since Q3 which has lead Kiwi to adjust lower. The pair broke below the 2015 - 2016 channel a couple of days ago but stalled near 0.69. 50.0% retracement of the 2015 - 2016 upswing is the next target but a pullback to the big figure at 0.70 or 200 DMA is not excluded.

al_dcdemo 24 Dec.

UPDATE 8: Liquidity and volatility both fell ahead of the holiday season. The U.S. dollar strengthened against the pound and commodity currencies, weakened against the yen, and remained unchanged against the euro and the franc. If the past week was of some example, the week ahead should be even more quiet. But I wouldn't bet on it because I think some of the recent moves have further to run and many will not be patient enough to wait for the New Year to get on board of them. Year-end position-squaring coupled with low liquidity will produce a couple of moves in any case.

al_dcdemo 31 Dec.

UPDATE 9: The final week of the year was a pretty calm one if we exclude sharp spikes in euro and franc on Friday - already thin early Asian session liquidity was further diluted due to holidays and a large-sized order took out weaker hands. The dollar ended the week mostly lower, in part also due to bulls booking profit at year-end. Many countries are observing a holiday on January 2nd but I'm sure not everyone will wait until the 3rd to place their first trade. Market themes remain firmly in place and that could mean a volatile start to the new year.

USD/JPY to remain in balance

UPDATE 6: After it broke the symmetrical triangle pattern, the pair fell towards 118 and nearly touched the big figure. It was essentially a fake break below 118.25 - 118.75 support zone which was followed by a sharp reversal. The pair hit the above-mentioned pattern bottom on Friday, which behaved as expected. Next week will tell whether there's any downside left or the pair will return back to previous range with the mid point near 120.

al_dcdemo avatar
al_dcdemo 20 Oct.

UPDATE 7: The bottom of the symmetric triangle pattern, that was broken last week, has been acting as a tough resistance in the last three trading days. The pair is creeping below it but shows no intentions of turning back down. 50 DMA has crossed below 200 DMA on Friday after it has been below 100 DMA for nearly a month. Last week's breakdown roughly coincided with the cross but the pair wasn't able to produce a significant decline.

al_dcdemo avatar
al_dcdemo 23 Oct.

UPDATE 8: The symmetric triangle was resolved in the most "market" way. Several fake breakouts to either side were followed by a "real" break to the downside, which proved to be fake. The pair seems to have convincingly broken above 120 level helped by risk-on sentiment spurred by ECB's dovishness and PBOC rate cuts. Stock are rallying and 125 is back in focus. 122.00 - 122.50 is the first strong barrier on the way there.

al_dcdemo 27 Oct.

UPDATE 9: Yen rose more than two cents last week. It traded up to 121.50 and closed above 200 DMA. However, it has been falling since the beginning of this week, to as low as 120.15 in today's trading, before stalling. The big figure (120), also the mid point of the 118 - 122 range, shall hold if the pair wants to maintain bullish bias. On a break below, retest of the lower extreme of the range will come back into focus.

UPDATE 10: Attempt to break to the upside of the aforementioned pattern failed but the pair didn't decline past the pattern's bottom either. Volatility continues to fall as this week's range is even smaller and basically less than 100 pips. I'm very happy with the outcome because uncertainty after August 24th market rout made the whole thing difficult to predict.

I am bullish on this pair

marius24 Posted 31 July as Analysis on AUD/CAD, Target: 0.9760, Date: 1st of September, 12:00 GMT  in #Technical analysis #AUD/CAD #Breakout #Consolidation #Strong Support #Oil Prices #Oil Output
Currency Pair:Aud/Cad
Indicators: technical patterns and Sma50(red)+ Sma200 (blue)
Current price: 0.9561
Trend: consolidation
Possible trading range:0.9350-0.9850
Signals:The fact that 0.94 level has stopped the bears in their attempt to send this currency pair at lower levels can be seen as a bullish signal. We need an upside breakout around 0.9650 in order for this pair to escape from a descending triangle.
Forecast:Fundamentally speaking both currencies are suffering right now from lower comm…

update: so far i was right saying that the pair appears to be in a slightly bullish outlook. On the daily chart it can be seen ( barely) an inverted H&S pattern having its neckline unbroken around 0.9750. I remain bullish in this pair in the short term.

marius24 19 Aug.

update:since i put the last update the price made almost no changes and remained stuck in the same range between 0.95 and 0.97. From here there is some scope for further bullish attempts than bearish one as the RBA stopped talking down its currency. Current price: 0.96

Some strong support looming for AUD/USD

AdamFx42 Posted 27 Sep. as Analysis on AUD/USD, Target: 0.8823, Date: 3rd of November, 12:00 GMT  in #Technical analysis #AUD/USD #Fibonacci Expansion #Fibonacci Retracement #Strong Support
Aud/Usd weakness has pushed the price down very low
I believe it will drop a little more before support is found
If we look at the monthly chart:
Aud/Usd monthly chart
We are nearing 50% monthly fibonacci retracement of last big move up around 0.854,
last move fibonacci expansion 61.8% level is just above around 0.87
This could be a combined support area to stop the price fall
Zooming in a little to the weekly chart:
Aud/Usd weekly chart
We can see the support area just below
I believe the…

Establishing a base above 0.8805 now  -- next level to break/resistance is 0.8850

AdamFx42 avatar
AdamFx42 29 Oct.

AUd/Usd was nearing 0.89, but has been knocked down after FOMC decision and has broken below 0.88 again - need it to retrace back up a bit

AdamFx42 avatar
AdamFx42 30 Oct.

Pair is above 0.88 again after yesterday's losses - this is a bullish sign,
0.8850 - 23.6% fibonacci retracement on daily chart remains resistance,
and sellers are lined up here - price should remain below here now

AdamFx42 avatar
AdamFx42 31 Oct.

0.878 area now acting as firm support, holding price above 0.88, sellers around 0.885 still remain in control at the resistance area, so target seems good

AdamFx42 avatar
AdamFx42 31 Oct.

I'd say my prediction as drawn on my daily chart looks almost identical to reality now,
so I am happy with this one

EUR/JPY in a weekly bearish wedge pattern

AdamFx42 Posted 18 Aug. as Analysis on EUR/JPY, Target: 135.6600, Date: 1st of October, 12:00 GMT  in #Technical analysis #EUR/JPY #Fibonacci Expansion #Strong Support #Bearish Wedge Pattern
Eur/Jpy is currently stuck in a bearish wedge pattern that is about to draw to an end,
the breakout should be to the downside from this technical pattern:
on the weekly chart we can clearly see the wedge pattern,
which is pointing down - therefore bearish:
Eur/Jpy weekly chart
On the daily chart there is also a closer trendline down to be seen,
and the last two fibonacci expansion levels 61.8% of those last two moves down
are very close together, making for a support area,
which could lead to a …

Top border has held the price below it, and move down again within the weekly wedge is still posible,
target still valid

AdamFx42 6 Sep.

Move to lower border is on and price is now just 50 pips from target

AdamFx42 11 Sep.

Price has moved up now to top of weekly channel border,
lets see if it turns down again - could be a fast run down
