EUR/USD: 4-hour
First up is a look at Huck‘s favorite pair, EUR/USD. Could the recent downtrend be coming to an end? After all, we just got a break of the inverse head and shoulders that formed on the 4-hour chart! After a fake break late last week, the pair finally broke through and is now hanging around the 1.2400 handle. Don’t be surprised if we see a retest of the neckline around 1.2300 before the bulls make a run for new highs!
EUR/JPY: 1-hour
For those of you who love Fibonacci setups, this one’s for you! EUR/JPY actually pulled back and bounced off the 38.2% Fib yesterday. But with Stochastic now pointing back south, we could see the bears push price action back down to the 61.8% Fib, which happens to line up nicely with the 96.00 psychological handle. If you’re more of the cautious type, I suggest waiting for Stochastic to hit oversold and for some reversal candlesticks to form before loading up on any positions.
GBP/JPY: 1-hour
Lastly, here’s a look at Guppy. After posting lower highs and higher lows, could we be seeing a triangle forming on GBP/JPY? Right now, price is dropping and looks like it could be making a run for support at the rising trend line at around 121.50. If you see some reversal candlesticks form at that area, you know what to do!
