Comments
EURUSD is bouncing at trend line support. We are monitoring the price action to see if there is a potential move up to Fibonacci resistance.

Daily Technical Analysis for USDCHF as at 21st May 2013
DAILY OVERVIEW
Trend : Long
Ambush Zone : -
Target 1 : -
Target 2 : -
Stop : -






Comments
USDCHF has once again traded up to and rejected the 161.80 extension level. Furthermore a pronounced negative RSI divergence is forming.

We are monitoring the potential for a further break of the 161.8 level. A move above this level has the potential to follow through to the 200 Fibonacci extension level with further targets being 0.9970 which corresponds to a prior Swing High and then the significant USDCHF 1.0000 level.

Alternatively a failure to break above the 161.8 level could possibly lead to a deeper pullback into Fibonacci support.

Daily Technical Analysis for USDJPY as at 21th May 2013
DAILY OVERVIEW
Trend : Long
Ambush Zone : -
Target 1 : -
Target 2 : -
Stop : -





Comments
As posted previously, USDJPY continues to trade at its highs without making any significant progress over the past few sessions. The RSI is showing a weekly negative divergence.

We have identified 110 as the next potential swing target and the 104 area as a possible Fibonacci expansion target.

Alternatively as the price action is extended, there is potential that USDJPY trades down to sideways as this currency pair corrects and allows the averages to catch up with the last move. Initially support for a possible correction being found at the 8 period moving averages.

Daily Technical Analysis for Oil (WTI) as at 21st May 2013
DAILY OVERVIEW
Trend : Long
Ambush Zone : -
Target 1 : -
Target 2 : -
Stop : -





Comments
Oil has now closed above the weekly and monthly triangle resistance and in the process put in place a HH, HL, HH combination. We are monitoring the possibility for the upward momentum to continue with the 138.2% Fibonacci Expansion level in the area of 103 being a potential target. However Oil will first need to initially breach the significant 100 level.

Alternatively if Oil cannot move higher from these levels could lead to the possibility that we see a further pull back to the 8 period moving averages.

Daily Technical Analysis for USDJPY as at 24th May 2013
DAILY OVERVIEW
Trend : Long
Ambush Zone : 100.50 – 98.40
Target 1 : 104.00
Target 2 : 110.00
Stop : 97.00






Comments
USDJPY on a swing basis continues to trend positively with the moving averages confirming the market direction. However yesterday price action rejected the 161.80 Fibonacci expansion level and USDJPY has subsequently corrected down to a level slightly above the 34 period moving averages and Fibonacci support. This move was in line with the negative weekly RSI divergence that was identified in prior postings.

We have identified the following levels as possible long targets.
1. A retouch of 104.00 being the 161.80 Fibonacci Expansion target.
2. The 105.00 level being the 200 percent Fibonacci Expansion target.
3. Around 108.00 being long term trend line resistance.
4. 110.00 being a prior Swing High Pivot.
Scenario 1
A move down to Fibonacci support could offer a potential opportunity to buy USDJPY with targets mentioned coming into focus.

Scenario 2
Alternatively if the price action can breach and close beneath the long average there is a possibility for a further move to trend line support.

Comments
Gold on a swing basis is trading negatively with the moving averages confirming the trend. However the price action has retraced to the small average thus creating the possibility of a Higher Low and double bottom scenario.
That said as the trend is negative the focus will continue on the short side.

Scenario 1
We are monitoring the price action at the area of the 8 period moving averages so as to identify possible selling opportunities.

Scenario 2
Alternatively if Gold can close above the 8 period moving averages the potential for a move to Fibonacci resistance comes into play.

Comments
Oil on a swing basis continues to trade positively with the moving averages confirming the direction. However Oil has pullback into Fibonacci support where it touched and rejected a prior broken up trend line. The bigger picture continues to be one where the price action is trading near the top of a large monthly converging triangle.

Scenario 1
We are monitoring the price action at these levels for a possible resumption of the uptrend with possible targets being the 100 % and 138.2% Fibonacci Expansion level in the areas of 99.00 and 103.00 respectively. However the psychological 100.00 level will need to be broken for any further upside to continue.

Scenario 2
Alternatively if Oil cannot find support at these levels there is a possibility of a retest of the prior broken upward sloping trend line.

USDJPY on a swing basis continues to trend positively with the moving averages confirming the market direction. However yesterday price action rejected the 161.80 Fibonacci expansion level and USDJPY has subsequently corrected down to a level slightly above the 34 period moving averages and Fibonacci support. The RSI has not confirmed this move down as a positive divergence is forming. This would possibly imply that support could hold.

We have identified the following levels as possible long targets.
1. A retouch of 104.00 being the 161.80 Fibonacci Expansion target.
2. The 105.00 level being the 200 percent Fibonacci Expansion target.
3. Around 108.00 being long term trend line resistance.

Scenario 1
A move down to Fibonacci support could offer a potential opportunity to buy USDJPY with targets mentioned coming into focus.

Daily Technical Analysis for EURUSD as at 28th May 2013
DAILY OVERVIEW
Trend : Short
Ambush Zone : 1.3015 – 1.3145
Target 1 : 1.2795
Target 2 : 1.2745
Stop : 1.3245




Comments
EURUSD has this morning opened negatively.

The swing bias remains negative with the averages confirming this direction. The price action continues to range around the upward sloping trend line and between both the short and long moving averages. That the price action has retraced into the averages when the trend is down could be viewed as a possible selling opportunity. However the upward sloping trend line may offer resistance to further downside movement.

Scenario 1
We are monitoring a potential break down in the direction of the 4th April Swing Low.

Scenario 2
Alternatively EURUSD could possibly retrace up the long average and Fibonacci resistance level.

This morning USDJPY has opened positively.

USDJPY on a swing basis continues to trend positively with the moving averages confirming the market direction. The price action has retraced and trading within the averages which could potentially offer a buying opportunity. The RSI is also diverging positively.

We have identified the following levels as possible long targets.

2. The 105.00 level being the 200 percent Fibonacci Expansion target.
3. Around 108.00 being long term trend line resistance.
4. 110.00 being a prior Swing High Pivot.
Scenario 1
A move down to Fibonacci support could offer a potential opportunity to buy USDJPY with targets mentioned coming into focus.

Scenario 2
Alternatively if the price action can breach and close beneath the long average there is a possibility for a further move to trend line support.

Gold has this morning opened negative to neutral.

Gold on a swing basis is trading negatively with the moving averages confirming the trend. A failure to breach the 16th April low will effectively put in place a higher low.

Scenario 1
As the price action has retraced between the averages this offers a potential selling opportunity as the trend is down. We are monitoring the price action at these levels so as to identify possible selling opportunities.

Scenario 2
Alternatively as Gold has closed above the 8 period moving averages the potential for a move to Fibonacci resistance comes into play.

Oil has this morning opened flat to positive.

Oil on a swing basis continues to trade positively with the moving averages confirming the direction. However Oil has pullback into Fibonacci support where it touched and rejected a prior broken up trend line. The bigger picture continues to be one where the price action is trading near the top of a large monthly converging triangle.

Scenario 1
We are monitoring the price action at these levels for a possible resumption of the uptrend with possible targets being the 100 % and 138.2% Fibonacci Expansion level in the areas of 99.00 and 103.00 respectively. However the psychological 100.00 level will need to be broken for any further upside to continue.

Scenario 2
Alternatively if Oil cannot find support at these levels there is a possibility of a retest of the prior broken upward sloping trend line.

EURUSD has this morning opened higher after yesterdays strong up day where it closed above the upward sloping trend line. Today’s opening range is 53 pips which equates to 55% of the daily average true range. The swing bias remains negative and the averages are confirming the market direction. However the price action has retraced and is trading between both short and long averages.
In terms of the bigger picture the price action is in the process of forming a higher low but confirmation is required for a change of trend to be established. A prior swing high breach would confirm a possible change of trend. Overhead resistance however in terms of the downward sloping trend line, the long average and Fibonacci resistance may put a brake on further upward momentum.

Scenario 1
As the dominant daily trend is down the retracement into the averages might offer shorting opportunities at resistance or if a clear negative divergence can be identified. The initial target for any down break would be the 17th May prior swing low.

Scenario 2
Alternatively EURUSD could continue its retracement up to the long average and Fibonacci resistance level.

Oil is this morning trading higher from the open after yesterdays strong up day. Today’s opening range is 47 pips which equates to 26% of the daily average true range.

In terms of the bigger price action continues to trade near the top of a large monthly converging triangle. However following the breach of the prior pivot low the swing bias has changed from positive to negative. This has coincided with breach of a prior broken upward sloping trend line.

From a bullish perspective the moving averages however have yet to cross and confirm this new trend. Furthermore the price action has retraced and is trading just above Fibonacci support and yesterday’s price action put in place a bullish hammer candle stick.

Scenario 1
As the dominant daily trend has changed to negative we are monitoring the possibility of continued move down to Fibonacci support.

Scenario 2
Alternatively following yesterday’s candle stick hammer formation and approach of Fibonacci resistance we are monitoring the possibility of a bounce and even a resumption of the prior up trend with potential targets the 100 % and 138.2% Fibonacci Expansion level in the areas of 99.00 and 103.00 respectively. However the psychological 100.00 level will need to be broken for any further upside to continue.

If one was to move to the higher time frame Weekly chart it is easier to see that the price action is in the process of forming a higher low but confirmation is required for a change of trend to be established. Back to a daily time frame a prior swing high breach would confirm a possible change of trend. Overhead resistance however in terms Fibonacci resistance might limit further upward momentum.
Scenario 1
As the dominant daily trend is down the retracement into the averages might offer shorting opportunities. However we have yet to notice any loss of momentum that could be identified by an oscillator divergence or candle stick pattern. The initial target for any down break would be the upward sloping trend line that may offer some support followed by the 12th March prior swing low.

Scenario 2
Alternatively GBPUSD could continue its retracement up to the long average and Fibonacci resistance level.

Gold is this morning trading higher from the open after Fridays down day. Today’s opening range is 946 pips which equates to 29% of the daily average true range

In terms of the bigger picture the swing bias remains negative and the averages are confirming the market direction. However the price action has retraced and is currently trading between both short and long averages. It would appear that Gold is in the process of forming a higher low but confirmation is required for a change of trend to be established. A prior swing high breach would confirm a possible change of trend. Overhead resistance however in terms of the long average and Fibonacci resistance may put a brake on further upward momentum.

Scenario 1
As the dominant daily trend is down the retracement into the averages might possibly offer shorting opportunities at resistance. The initial target for any down break would be the 20th May prior low.

Scenario 2
Alternatively as Gold has closed above the 8 period moving averages the potential for a move to Fibonacci resistance comes into play.

Oil is this morning trading higher from the open after yesterdays strong down day. Today’s opening range is 70 pips which equates to 38% of the daily average true range.

In terms of the bigger price action continues to trade near the top of a large monthly converging triangle. However following the breach of the prior pivot low the swing bias has changed from positive to negative. This has coincided with breach of a prior broken upward sloping trend line.

From a bullish perspective the moving averages however have yet to cross and confirm this new trend. Furthermore the price action has retraced and is trading just above Fibonacci support.

Scenario 1
As the dominant daily trend has changed to negative we are monitoring the possibility of continued move down into Fibonacci support.

Scenario 2
Alternatively as the price action is trading around Fibonacci we are monitoring the possibility of a bounce and even a resumption of the prior up trend with potential targets the 100 % and 138.2% Fibonacci Expansion level in the areas of 99.00 and 103.00
respectively. However the psychological 100.00 level will need to be broken for any further upside to continue.
