EUR/USD: Daily
Beware EUR/USD bears! The bulls seem to be regaining control again! As you can see, there are signals that suggest that EUR/USD could start rallying. For one, the Stochastic shows that conditions are oversold. Two, price bounced off from 1.2650, which was a level that served as major support in the past. And lastly, a bullish engulfing candle formed after a doji. If price continues to move up, the 1.3000 level may be the next major inflection point.
AUD/USD: 1-hour
Did anyone get a chance to catch this Aussie downtrend? Well, it’s not too late, folks! AUD/USD’s falling trend line on the 1-hour chart is still very much intact, and the pair seems ready for a quick retest. Take note that the broken support at the .9900 major psychological handle is right in line with the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level, which means that it could act as resistance later on. Make sure you wait for Stochastic to turn if you decide to jump in!
EUR/GBP: 4-hour
It seems that the old market cliche “All gaps get filled” is true. Just look at EUR/GBP! The pair’s recent rally has allowed it to ALMOST fill the weekend gap from a couple of weeks ago. It’s also very interesting to note that the area coincides nicely with the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level. Does this mean the pair find resistance at the level? After all, Stochastic already indicates overbought conditions. But as I always say, it’s better to wait for confirmation signals in the form of candlesticks. Who knows, there might still be enough euro bulls to push EUR/GBP all the way up to around .8250.
