FOREX Report & Technical Analysis 24th Nov

EUR/USD
EUR/USD fell hard on Friday, testing the 1.2350 region.we feel that the market will more than likely head down to the 1.2050 level, which is our longer-term target. Ultimately we believe that bounces are selling opportunities as the US dollar should continue to be by far the most favored currency in the trading world. We have no interest in buying this market, and recognize that it’s only a matter of time before we break down as the US dollar is the strongest financial instrument.
GBP/USD
GBP/USD fell on Friday, as you can see.The market still remains within the previous consolidation area so although it looks very soft at this moment in time, we don’t really have a signal to work with. Because of this, we are on the sidelines but we recognize that the downtrend is certainly an effect, and any rally at this point in time should be an opportunity to sell. Resistive candles will be used, as well as a break down to a fresh new low.
AUD/USD
AUD/USD tried to rally on Friday, but found far too much in the way of resistance above and turned back around to form a shooting star. With that, the market looks as if it’s ready to drop from here, and perhaps continue lower. That would continue the overall downtrend anyway, so we are more than comfortable shorting this market on a break down. We have no interest in buying the Australian dollar because there is so much working against the right now, and therefore we are essentially “sell only.”
USD/JPY
USD/JPY went back and forth on Friday, However, the market has broken out recently and therefore we feel that the market should be bought every time it pulls back and show signs of support. With that being the case, we feel that supportive candles below are opportunity to take advantage of what is obviously a very strong uptrend and a divergence of the central banks. We will buy and buying again, and have no interest whatsoever in selling as the US dollars so strong.

Forex Report & Daily Technical Analysis 21st Nov

EUR/USD
EUR/USD went back Thursday, testing the 1.25 level for support. It did in fact find it, but at the end of the day we continue to go sideways. We believe that ultimately if we can break down below the 1.25 level, we would be massively bearish. A break down below that level should send this market looking for the 1.2350 level. That area should be somewhat supportive, but ultimately we believe that this market will break down below there. We have no interest in buying.
GBP/USD
The GBP/USD went back on Thursday, testing the 1.57 level. The market showed a neutral candle, it’s looking impossible to imagine place a trade at the moment. However, if we see some type of resistant candle above, we would be more than willing to sell this market as the market looks very bearish overall. That being said, we feel that buying this market is impossible until we get above the 1.60 handle. With that, we are very bullish of the US dollar and recognize that it is the strongest currency out there.
AUD/USD
AUD/USD fell on Thursday, testing the 0.86 handle. Because of that, we do forming a little bit of a hammer like candle and it suggests to us that we may bounce a little bit. Quite frankly that’s a selling opportunity as far as we can see, and we are going to look for resistive candles in order to do so. With that being the case, we are on the sidelines but we are looking for opportunity to take advantage of value when it comes to the US dollar.
USD/JPY
USD/JPY tried to rally Thursday, but turned back around to form a shooting star. The shooting star suggests to us that the market is going to pull back, and quite frankly we look at that as value in the US dollar. We believe that the 115 level below should be massively supportive, so therefore we are looking for supportive candles below in order to go long of this pair as we believe that the market is in a longer-term uptrend. Ultimately, we cannot sell.

FOREX Technical Analysis Outlook 20th Nov

EUR/USD
EUR/USD tried to go up during Wednesday, but as you can see ran into trouble at the 1.26 level yet again and fell to form a shooting star. we believe that a move below the 1.25 level is in fact a selling opportunity in a market that most certainly is in a massive downtrend. We have no interest in buying, as we believe that the sellers will come back into the market to punish the Euro again and again. With that being said, we remain bearish. See Live Signals
GBP/USD
GBP/USD broke high on Wednesday, testing the 1.57 handle. That being the case, the market looks as if it is ready to perhaps bounce around little bit we still believe in selling rallies as they appear. Resistive candles above will continue to be selling opportunities, and we believe that the GBP/USD pair is eventually going to head down to the 1.55 handle. If we can get below there, the 1.50 level is probably targeted. We are not interested in buying this market until we get above the 1.60 handle, something that doesn’t look likely at the moment. See Live Signals
AUD/USD
AUD/USD fell on Wednesday, as we continue to see weakness in the Australian dollar in general. After all, the market heads down to the 0.85 handle, and then ultimately below there given enough time. We have no interest in buying this pair, and believe that rallies at this point time should be nice selling opportunities as the market certainly has set its trend to the downside. In fact, it’s almost impossible to be buying this market until we get above the 0.90 level. That seems very unlikely, and as a result we aren’t even looking. See Live Signals
USD/JPY
USD/JPY broke high on Wednesday, as we tested the 118 handle. Because of this, it looks like the USD/JPY pair is ready to continue going higher over the longer term, and we feel that the market is then heading to the 120 level given enough time. Quite frankly, this is a market that can be bought every time we pullback, and we will continue to do so as the US dollar should continue to strengthen. The 115 level below is massive support as far as we can see. See Live Signals

FOREX Weekly Technical Report 03 – 07 Nov

EUR/USD
The EUR/USD pair initially fell during the course of the week, but as you can see found enough support to turn things back around and form a nice hammer. Because of this, it appears the market is ready to bounce from here, and perhaps even go as high as 1.28 before it’s all said and done. Nonetheless, we do not like buying this pair and we do believe that eventually that any rally from here will simply represent value in the US dollar that will force people to come into this market and sell.
Forecast
The EUR/USD pair initially fell during the course of the session on Friday, but then bounced above the 1.25 level by the time we close. This of course is a very positive looking candle, and as a result the market should continue to go higher for the short-term. Ultimately though we think there is plenty of resistance above and it’s likely that this market will break down. We have no interest in buying the Euro, and believe that the US dollar will continue to be the favored currency by Forex traders around the world.
AUD/USD
The AUD/USD pair initially dipped during the course of the week, but then bounced enough to form a hammer yet again. This is the second week in a row we have seen is, so it appears of this market is ready to bounce around. It’s going to be difficult for longer-term traders to be involved in this pair, so quite frankly we are standing on the sidelines at the moment. We still favor the downside, but certainly don’t have any type of selling signal at this point in time.
Forecast
After early session weakness, the AUD/USD rebounded on Friday, closing higher and putting the market in a position to breakout through a short-term retracement zone. The continuation of the move through this zone will not mean the trend has changed, but it could create enough upside momentum to challenge the October 29 top at .8910. A trade through this price will turn the main trend to up on the daily chart.
GBP/USD
The GBP/USD pair broke down during the course of the week, and now looks very bearish. Because of this, we feel that this market will then go to the 1.55 handle, and then possibly 1.50 handle given enough time. Rallies at this point in time should continue to be selling opportunities, as we believe the 1.60 level is now the” ceiling” of this particular currency pair. The US dollar is by far the most favored currency in the world, and we don’t see that changing anytime soon as the Federal Reserve has left the quantitative easing game.
Forecast
The GBP/USD pair fell during the course of the session on Friday, but bounced enough to form a nice-looking hammer. This of course suggests that we could get a little bit of a bounce but we would anticipate selling pressure to pick back up somewhere closer to the 1.59 handle even if we do get that bounce. We think that the 1.60 level is of course the “ceiling” in this marketplace, and that being the case we feel that the market will eventually break down to the 1.55 handle. Ultimately, we believe that the 1.50 level could be targeted.
USD/JPY
The USD/JPY pair broke above the 115 level during the week, and now looks poised to go much higher. We believe that this market will eventually go to the 120 level, and that pullbacks should continue to be buying opportunities going forward. With that being the case, we really like this pair and we believe that the US dollar will continue to climb against the Japanese yen over the longer term and that this is a nice “buy-and-hold” type of market. We have no interest in selling this market on believe that the 110 level is now the absolute bottom.
Forecast
The USD/JPY pair initially broke higher during the course of the session on Friday, but found enough resistance above to turn things back around and form a shooting star. The shooting star of course signifies that we will more than likely pullback but we think that the 115 level is massively supportive. That being the case, we are buyers on this pullbacks, and have no interest whatsoever in selling this market as there is a massive amount of support below. Ultimately, we believe that this market goes to the 120 level, given enough time we feel that it could go even higher.
