EUR/USD: 1-hour
First up, here’s EUR/USD for y’all! With Stochastic already indicating overbought conditions and sporting a bearish divergence (it’s making higher highs while price is making lower highs), some of you probably see the euro’s recent rally as nothing more than just a retracement. So if you’re feeling bearish for the pair, it might be a good idea to be on your toes for signs of a reversal between 1.3150 and 1.3200, which is the area between the 38.2% and 61.8% Fibonacci retracement levels. Be careful not to get excited selling EUR/USD though. Who knows, there may still be enough buyers in the market to push the pair back up to 1.3290.
AUD/USD: 1-hour
There’s also a similar Fib play setup on AUD/USD if you fancy comdolls like Happy Pip. On the 1-hour chart, we see that Stochastic is fast approaching the overbought territory and the pair could find resistance at the 38.2% Fib level which coincides with the previous support area. Reversal candlesticks around the 1.0550 area could mean that AUD/USD is on its way down to 1.0450. However, a strong break above the level may hint that the pair will rally to 1.0600 or maybe even 1.0650!
GBP/JPY: 4-hour
Lastly, for those looking to sell GBP/JPY, here’s a setup that may just tickle your fancy! On the 4-hour timeframe, we see that the pair seems to have formed a head and shoulders chart pattern which could hint that the pair would soon tumble down to 127.00. However, as I always warn, don’t get too giddy. Be wary of a close above 129.00 as the remaining buyers in the market could still push GBP/JPY back up to 130.00!
