Comments
EURUSD continues to trade around our first value area which is the 8 period moving averages. We are therefore monitoring the price action for signs of support coming in at these levels prior to a resumption of the uptrend.
Further positivity for EURUSD will be in line with the change of the daily trend to up, the bullish weekly time frame the moving averages crossing positively and the break of the multiyear downward sloping trend line.
As posted previously we are currently monitoring the possibility of a move to 1.3710 being a previous weekly pivot high. However as the price action is extended from the averages there is potential for EURUSD to experience a corrective down to sideways movement. As the weekly RSI has yet to show signs of confirming this move the possibility of some kind of correction should not be ruled out.
Scenario 1
As the dominant daily trend is up retracements into support could be viewed as buying opportunities
Scenario 2
Alternatively a breach of the 8 period moving averages could see EURUSD trading down to the 34 period moving averages.

GBPUSD continues to find support at the 8 period moving averages which is our first value area. We are monitoring the price action at these levels for a possible up move to the previous swing high.
A continued up move should put in focus the possibility of GBPUSD threatening to breach a multiyear down trend line and the 1.6400 area which coincides with a prior weekly pivot high. With the RSI and the moving averages confirming the up move and weekly time frame being in gear with the daily time frame shorting such a strong up trend can be dangerous.
However with GBPUSD has yet to experience a good retracement and there is a possibility of further corrective down to sideways price action.
Scenario 1
As the dominant daily trend is up retracements into support could be viewed as buying opportunities. These retracements would be ideally taken off an obvious corrective pull back to the 8 period moving averages, trend line support or previous pivot high. However there is a possibility that pull backs are limited and GBPUSD continues to break higher. In this case pullbacks and break outs could potentially be identified off lower time frames.
Scenario 2
Alternatively a breach of the 8 period moving averages could see GBPUSD trade down to trend line support.

Comments
USDCHF has traded up to our first value area being the 8 period moving averages which is a potential shorting zone.
To recap on the bigger picture the price action breached trend line support, horizontal support and more importantly the prior swing low which effectively changes the trend to down. The RSI is in gear with this downtrend and this is further confirmed by the averages and weekly time frame. The next support level we are monitoring is the 0.9020 area.
Scenario 1
As the dominant daily trend is down corrective pullbacks could possibly offer selling opportunities with retracements back to the averages, the prior pivot low and broken support being value areas where shorts could potentially be added. However there is a possibility of USDCHF continuing to break lower following relatively minor corrective pullbacks which can be identified off intraday charts.
Scenario 2
Alternatively one could potentially take scalp longs up to the previously mentioned value areas.

USDJPY continues to above the intersection of the converging triangle trend lines.
As USDJPY is trading above the broken converging triangle and with the RSI confirming the move and the averages and weekly time frame pointing positive, we are monitoring the strength of this bounce. If the price action can hold above the triangle and trade through last Monday’s opening downside gap there is potential that USDJPY will retest the 100 level.
If USDJPY however can trade beneath the converging triangle pattern a move and breach of the prior swing low comes into focus. A breach of the prior swing low will effectively change the swing trend to negative. This scenario is currently being highlighted by downside pressure being exerted by Fibonacci resistance.
Scenario 1
As the dominant daily trend is up retracements into support could be viewed as buying opportunities
Scenario 2
Alternatively a move beneath the converging triangle opens up a possibility of shorting USDJPY down to the prior swing low.

Comments
Gold continues to trade in the Fibonacci support area. We are monitoring a possible move up to the 34 period moving averages.
The bounce off Fibonacci and the 1320 support area has thus far failed to follow through with the price action trading back down deep into the Fibonacci area. The move down however has not retested the 1320 level.
In terms of the bigger picture the daily trend is positive and the up move is in line with the hidden weekly divergence in the RSI. However the weekly time frame does continue to have a bearish outlook and the daily averages are layered negatively.
We are currently monitoring a potential move to the prior swing pivot high. However a failure to follow through could see Gold breach the prior swing low and effectively changing the trend to negative.
Scenario 1
As the dominant daily trend is up corrective sideways to down movements could potentially be viewed as buying opportunities.
Scenario 2
Alternatively the breach of the 1320 support area could see Gold trade down to the prior pivot low.
