GBP/JPY Daily Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 147.45; (P) 148.02; (R1) 148.78; More...

GBP/JPY is still bounded in sideway consolidation from 149.70 and intraday bias remains neutral first. With 145.67 support intact, outlook stays bullish and further rally is expected. On the upside, above 149.70 will target 153.84/156.69 resistance zone next. However, break of 145.67 will suggest that the rebound from 139.88 has completed and turn near term outlook bearish again.

In the bigger picture, current development suggests that GBP/JPY has successfully defended 139.29 cluster support (50% retracement of 122.36 to 156.59 at 139.47). And, the rally from 122.36 (2016 low) is still intact. Such medium to long term rise would extend through 156.96 high. This will now be the preferred case as long as 145.67 near term support holds. However, break of 145.67 will turn focus back to 139.29/47 key support zone.

EUR/GBP Daily Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 0.8848; (P) 0.8884; (R1) 0.8908; More...

Intraday bias in EUR/GBP remains neutral for the moment and outlook is unchanged. While the pull back from 0.8994 is deep, the structure still suggests that it's a correction. Thus we're holding on to the view that fall from 0.9097 has completed at 0.8847 already. On the upside, break of 0.8994 will target a test on 0.9097 high. Firm break there will resume the rise from 0.8620 towards 0.9305 high. Though, break of 0.8847 will bring deeper fall to 61.8% retracement of 0.8620 to 0.9097 at 0.8802.

In the bigger picture, EUR/GBP is staying in long term range pattern from 0.9304 (2016 high). At this point, there is no clear sign of range break out yet. And more corrective trading would continue. On the upside, in case of another rise, we'd stay cautious on strong resistance from 0.9304/5 to limit upside in case of further rally. Meanwhile, if there is another medium term decline, strong support will likely be seen from 0.8303 to contain downside.

EUR/AUD Daily Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 1.6083; (P) 1.6133; (R1) 1.6210; More....

EUR/AUD's rebound from 1.5984 is in progress but upside is held below 1.6252 resistance so far. Intraday bias remains neutral first. Price actions from 1.6353 are seen as a correction. In case of another fall, downside should be contained above 1.5886 cluster support (61.8% retracement of 1.5601 to 1.6353 at 1.5888) to bring rebound and then rise resumption. On the upside, break of 1.6252 resistance will target a retest on 1.6353 first.

In the bigger picture, up trend from 1.3624 (2017 low) is still in progress. Further rise should be seen to retest 1.6587 (2015 high). Decisive break there will resume the long term rally and target 1.7488 fibonacci level. On the downside, break of 1.5886 resistance turned support is need to be the first sign of medium term reversal. Otherwise, outlook will remain bullish in case of deep pull back.

EUR/CHF Daily Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 1.1359; (P) 1.1390; (R1) 1.1422; More...

Outlook in EUR/CHF is unchanged and intraday bias remains neutral first. On the upside, decisive break of 1.1452 resistance should confirm bullish reversal, after drawing strong support from 1.1154/98 zone. In that case, outlook will be turned bullish for 1.1713 resistance next. However, break of 1.1280 will argue that choppy recovery from 1.1178 has completed and bring retest of 1.1154/98 support zone again.

In the bigger picture, price actions from 1.2004 medium term top is seen as a correction only. Downside should be contained by support zone of 1.1198 (2016 high) and 61.8% retracement of 1.0629 to 1.2004 at 1.1154 to complete it and bring rebound. This cluster level is in proximity to long term channel support (now at 1.1234) too. A break of 1.2 key resistance is still expected in the medium term long term. However, sustained break of the mentioned support zone will mark reversal of the long term trend. In that case, 1.0629 key support will be back into focus.

EUR/USD Daily Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 1.1430; (P) 1.1513; (R1) 1.1562; More.....

EUR/USD's fall from 1.1814 resumed after brief consolidation and hits as low as 1.1463 so far. Intraday bias is back on the downside for 1.1300 low next. On the upside, break of 1.1593 minor resistance is needed to indicate short term bottoming. Otherwise, outlook will stay cautiously bearish in case of recovery.

In the bigger picture, a medium term bottom should be in place at 1.1300, on bullish convergence condition in daily MACD and some consolidations would be seen. But still, note that EUR/USD was rejected by 38.2% retracement of 1.6039 (2008 high) to 1.0339 (2017 low) at 1.2516. That carries some long term bearish implications. Thus, we'd expect fall from 1.2555 high to resume after consolidation completes. Below 1.1300 should send EUR/USD through 61.8% retracement of 1.0339 to 1.2555 at 1.1186. And, in that case, EUR/USD would head to retest 1.0339 (2017 low).

GBP/USD Daily Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 1.2897; (P) 1.2960; (R1) 1.3001; More...

GBP/USD's fall from 1.3297 is still in progress and intraday bias remains on the downside for 1.2784 support. Firm break there will likely resume larger down trend from 1.4376 through 1.2661. On the upside, break of 1.3022 minor resistance will turn intraday bias neutral and bring recovery. But risk will stay on the downside as long as 1.3297 resistance holds.

In the bigger picture, whole medium term rebound from 1.1946 (2016 low) should have completed at 1.4376 already, after rejection from 55 month EMA (now at 1.4062). The structure and momentum of the fall from 1.4376 argues that it's resuming long term down trend. And this will be the preferred case as long as 38.2% retracement of 1.4376 to 1.2661 at 1.3316 holds. However, firm break of 1.3316 would bring stronger rebound to 61.8% retracement at 1.3721. And, the eventual depth of the fall from 1.4376, and the chance of hitting 1.1946 low, will depend on the strength of the interim corrective rebound from 1.2661.

USD/CHF Daily Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 0.0.9863; (P) 0.9894; (R1) 0.9955; More...

USD/CHF's rally is still in progress and intraday bias stays on the upside. Next target is 1.0067 resistance. On the downside, break of 0.9822 support is needed to indicate short term topping. Otherwise, near term outlook will remain bullish in case of retreat.

In the bigger picture, the pullback from 1.0067 has completed at 0.9541 already. And rise from 0.9186 is likely resuming. Firm break of 1.0067 will pave the way to retest 1.0342 key resistance. We'd be cautious on strong resistance from there to limit upside to bring another medium term fall to extend long term range trading.

USD/JPY Daily Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 113.85; (P) 114.21; (R1) 114.91; More...

USD/JPY's rally resumed after brief consolidation and reaches as high as 114.54 so far. Intraday bias is back on the upside for 114.73 key resistance. Decisive break there will confirm larger bullish case. Next target will be 118.65 resistance. On the downside, break of 113.51 support is needed to indicate short term topping. Otherwise, outlook will remain bullish in case of retreat.

In the bigger picture, corrective fall from 118.65 (2016 high) should have completed with three waves down to 104.62. Decisive break of 114.73 resistance will likely resume whole rally from 98.97 (2016 low) to 100% projection of 98.97 to 118.65 from 104.62 at 124.30, which is reasonably close to 125.85 (2015 high). This will stay as the preferred case as long as 109.76 support holds.

USD/CAD Daily Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 1.2824; (P) 1.2856; (R1) 1.2903; More...

Intraday bias in USD/CAD remains neutral as consolidation from 1.2781 temporary low continues. Outlook stays bearish as long as 1.3081 resistance holds. And another decline is still in favor. On the downside, break of 1.2781 will extend whole decline from 1.3385 to next fibonacci level at 1.2567, which is close to 1.2526 support.

In the bigger picture, the firm break of 38.2% retracement of 1.2061 to 1.3385 at 1.2879 key fibonacci level argues that whole choppy rebound from 1.2061 has completed at 1.3385 already. Deeper fall would be seen back to 61.8% retracement at 1.2567, which is close to 1.2526 support and possibly below. For now, we're not seeing fall from 1.3385 as resuming larger down trend from 1.4689 (2015 high) yet. Thus, we'll look for bottoming signal again below 1.2567.

AUD/USD Daily Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 0.7070; (P) 0.7134; (R1) 0.7166; More...

AUD/USD drops to as low as as 0.7084 so far as fall from 0.7314 extends. Intraday bias remains on the downside. Larger decline from 0.8135 is likely resuming. Break of 0.7084 will target 61.8% projection of 0.7676 to 0.7084 from 0.7314 at 0.6948 next. On the upside, break of 0.7161 minor resistance is needed to indicate short term bottoming. Otherwise, outlook will stay bearish in case of recovery.

In the bigger picture, rebound from 0.6826 (2016 low) is seen as a corrective move that should be completed at 0.8135. Fall from there would extend to have a test on 0.6826. There is prospect of resuming long term down trend from 1.1079 (2011 high). Current downside momentum as seen in weekly MACD support this bearish case. Firm break of 0.6826 will target 0.6008 key support next (2008 low). On the upside, break of 0.7361 resistance, however, argues that a medium term bottom is possibly in place, and stronger rebound could follow. We'll assess the medium term outlook later if this happens.
