The intraday technical outlook

 

The Euro continues to slide as the ECB decision begins to loom large this week.

 

With market volatilty increasing day by day could it be in the realms of possibility that we have a test of the 1.1000 level by the time of the ECB meeting.

 

For now the the mid 1.20 levels in December seem like a long time ago.

 

EURUSD is trading in an intraday 1 hour downtrend with the line of control at the 1.1640 level.

 

Current support comes in at 1.1560 and 1.1500.

 

Alternatively resistance can be found at 1.1640 and 1.1725.

 

 

GBPUSD

Late on Friday GBPUSD broke the 1.5150 support level.

 

The breach of the prior isolated low technically changes the trend from up to down.

 

GBPUSD is trading in an intraday 1 hour downtrend with the line of control at the 1.5230 level.

http://acfxblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/USDCHFMonthly.png

 

The intraday technical outlook

 

The market volatility that was caused by the SNB action continues to play havoc with the charts.

 

I am awaiting for new data to feed into the chart as only this will this help to smooth out the recent market volatility.

 

In meantime a new range has been formed between the 0.8205 to 0.9125 levels.

 

 

 

AUDUSD

 

http://acfxblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/19012015AUDUSDH1.png

 

The intraday technical outlook

 

On Friday AUDUSD traded higher as the price action bounced off the 0.8160 area.

 

The move higher continued into today’s trader however the recent price action has been rather choppy.

 

AUDUSD is trading in an intraday 1 hour uptrend with the line of control at the 0.8160 level.

 

Current resistance can be found at 0.8255 and 0.8295.

 

Alternatively support is at the 0.8200 and 0.8160.

http://acfxblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/19012015GOLDH1.png

 

The intraday technical outlook

 

Gold traded higher on Friday as traders and investors looked safety in this turbulent market.

OIL

 

http://acfxblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/19012015CLG5H12.png

 

The intraday technical outlook

 

The SNB news has relegated the Oil story out of the spotlight.

 

The ECB meeting and the Greek election will further allow Oil to drop out of the limelight.

 

This lack of focus on Oil could just be what is required to allow Oil to build a base above the 45.00 level.

 

Friday’s break under the 47.15 support level has changed the trend from up to down.

 

Oil is trading in an intraday 1 hour downtrend with the line of control at the 48.85 level.

 

Current support comes in at 46.00 and 45.00.

 

Alternatively resistance comes in at 48.85 and 51.00.

ACFX DAILY TECHNICAL REPORT – LONDON OPEN 20.01.2015

 

 

 

 

EURUSD

 

http://acfxblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/20012015EURUSDH1.png

 

The intraday technical outlook

 

Yesterday EURUSD failed to breach the 1.1640 when it retested this level.

 

Subsequently the price action traded back down to the 1.1565 support level.

 

With the QE decision looming large the market is now trying to second guess which way the ECB will decide to go.

 

The SNB move had initially made it look like a decision on Euro Zone stimulus was a certainty however there are now concerns that the ECB could spring a surprise on traders.

 

EURUSD is trading in an intraday 1 hour downtrend with the line of control at the 1.1640 level.

 

Current support comes in at 1.1560 and 1.1500.

 

Alternatively resistance can be found at 1.1640 and 1.1725.

 

 

 

 

GBPUSD

 

http://acfxblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/20012015GBPUSDH1.png

 

The intraday technical outlook

 

Yesterday GDPUSD continued to slide as the price action took out a recent isolated 4 hour pivot low at the 1.5075 level.

 

It would appear that traders are now targeting the 1.5030 2015 low.

 

With the weekly and monthly charts looking so bear ugly there is a possibility that we do see a continuation of the downward momentum.

 

The only hope presently for the bulls is if a double bottom forms above the 1.5030 on the daily time frame.

 

GBPUSD is trading in an intraday 1 hour downtrend with the line of control at the 1.5175 level.

 

Current support can be found at 1.5075 and 1.5030 levels.

 

Alternative resistance comes in at 1.5100 and 1.5150.

 

 

 

USDJPY

 

http://acfxblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/20012015USDJPYH1.png

 

The intraday technical outlook

 

USDJPY overnight broke above both the 117.75 resistance level and the downward channel.

 

The move above the 117.75 level has technically changed the trend from down to up.

 

With the Bank of Japan governor due to deliver a press conference in the early hours of Wednesday morning a reaffirmation of the current dovish stance will only add to this recent USDJPY rally.

 

USDJPY is trading in an intraday 1 hour uptrend with the line of control at the 116.90 level

 

Current resistance levels are at 118.85 and 119.30

 

Alternatively support is at 118.25 and 117.75.

 

 

 

USDCHF

The intraday technical outlook

 

As posted yesterday:

 

The market volatility that was caused by the SNB action continues to play havoc with the charts.

 

I am awaiting for new data to feed into the chart as only this will this help to smooth out the recent market volatility.

 

In meantime a new range has been formed between the 0.8450 to 0.8815 levels.

 

 

 

 

AUDUSD

 

http://acfxblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/19012015AUDUSDH11.png

 

The intraday technical outlook

 

This morning AUDUSD traded lower on the China GDP news.

 

However the sell off has been limited as the market digests the news that this data was not as bad as expected.

 

In the past four hours AUDUSD has traded higher off the 0.8160 support level.

 

I am now monitoring the price action for a possible retest of the 0.8240 level.

 

AUDUSD is trading in an intraday 1 hour uptrend with the line of control at the 0.8160 level.

 

Current resistance can be found at 0.8200 and 0.8215.

 

Alternatively support is at the 0.8160 and 0.8125.

 

 

 

GOLD

 

http://acfxblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/20012015GOLDH1.png

 

The intraday technical outlook

 

Gold this morning is trading higher following its one day consolidation with the price action currently testing the 1280.00 resistance level.

 

A breach and close above this level could accelerate the pace of upward momentum.

 

Gold is trading in an intraday 1 hour uptrend with the line of control at the 1254.00 level.

 

Current resistance comes in at 1280.00 and 1306.00.

 

Alternatively support comes in at 1269.00 and 1254.00.

 

 

 

OIL

 

http://acfxblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/20012015CLG5H1.png

 

The intraday technical outlook

 

Yesterday Mr. Mohammed al-Sabban who is the Saudi Arabia minister for petroleum said that his could country would not suffer economically even if oil prices stay at low levels for “at least eight years”.

 

It is obvious that such comments are made to spook the markets and came at a time when the price of oil has risen moderately.

 

Although oil did drop on the back of these comments the fall was not as dramatic and deep as could have been expected.

 

The intraday chart has now arrived at a juncture in that the price action is now trading in a 46.00 to 49.00 range.

 

A brake above or beneath this range will potentially dictate the medium term directional momentum.

 

Oil is trading in an intraday 1 hour downtrend with the line of control at the 48.85 level.

 

Current support comes in at 46.00 and 45.00.

 

Alternatively resistance comes in at 48.85 and 51.00.

ACFX DAILY TECHNICAL REPORT – LONDON OPEN 22.01.2015

 

 

 

 

EURUSD

 

http://acfxblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/22012015EURUSDH1.png

 

The intraday technical outlook

 

Yesterday EURUSD traded nervously as the market battled to form a view on the soon to announced us ECB stimulus program.

 

The markets have already priced in EUR 500 billion and an “open ended” ECB policy.

 

A failure to deliver this could send European equities crashing and the Euro higher.

 

EURUSD is trading in an intraday 1 hour downtrend with the line of control at the 1.1640 level.

 

Current support comes in at 1.1565 and 1.1500.

 

Alternatively resistance can be found at 1.1640 and 1.1725.

 

 

GBPUSD

 

http://acfxblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/22012015GBPUSDH1.png

 

The intraday technical outlook

 

Yesterday GBPUSD traded lowers on the news that all MPC policy makers had decided to keep interest rates on hold.

 

Up until recently two of the Monetary Policy Committee members had advocated a increase in interest rates. Therefore this shift in opinion puts back further the possibility of an interest rate increase.

 

Trying to make sense of the 1 hour chart for Cable at the moment is a little difficult as the price action has become very volatile with wild swings in price occurring.

 

A look at the four hour chart one can see the price action forming one of the most difficult patterns to trade which is an expanding triangle.

 

The price action needs to break above or beneath this range for more clarity to come into the trade.

 

GBPUSD is trading in an intraday 1 hour downtrend with the line of control at the 1.5175 level.

 

Current support can be found at 1.5100 and 1.5200 levels.

 

Alternative resistance comes in at 1.5100 and 1.5050.

 

 

 

USDJPY

 

http://acfxblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/22012015USDJPYH11.png

USDJPY continues to trade above both the 117.75 resistance level and the downward channel.

 

The move above the 117.75 level has technically changed the trend from down to up.

 

USDJPY is trading in an intraday 1 hour uptrend with the line of control at the 117.15 level

 

Current resistance levels are at 118.25 and 118.85.

 

Alternatively support is at 117.75 and 117.15.

 

 

USDCHF

AUDUSD

 

http://acfxblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/22012015AUDUSDH1.png

 

The intraday technical outlook

 

Yesterday AUDUSD crashed through its 0.8160 support level.

 

This move has changed the intraday trend from up to down.

 

AUDUSD is trading in an intraday 1 hour downtrend with the line of control at the 0.8230 level.

 

Current support is at the 0.8070 and 0.8035.

 

Alternatively resistance can be found at 0.8125 and 0.8160.

 

 

GOLD

 

http://acfxblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/22012015GOLDH11.png

 

The intraday technical outlook

 

Gold has experienced a two day correction that has taken the price action close to its channel bottom and the 1280.00 support level.

 

I am monitoring the price action for a potential rebound off these levels.

 

Gold is trading in an intraday 1 hour uptrend with the line of control at the 1269.00 level.

 

Current resistance comes in at 1306.00 and 1321.00.

 

Alternatively support comes in at 1280.00 and 1269.00.

 

 

OIL

 

http://acfxblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/22012015CLH5H1.png

 

The intraday technical outlook

 

The recent price action on oil has seen the trading ranges get smaller and smaller day by day.

 

Trying to get a 1 hour trend bias is difficult at the moment.

 

Although we have a break above a prior swing high which means we are in a technical up trend the structure of the recent price action leads me to question the validity of current directional momentum.

 

That we have had a break of a large down channel does give an indication that the longer term bias is up.

 

However the price of Oil at the moment is dictated by through away comments by official and semi official comments and current geo-political events.

 

More clarity will come once we have the ECB meeting and this afternoons Crude Inventories report.

 

Oil is trading in an intraday 1 hour uptrend with the line of control at the 46.80 level.

 

Current resistance comes in at 48.20 and 48.85

 

Alternatively support comes in at 46.80 and 46.00.

The intraday technical outlook

 

Yesterday EURUSD finished the day testing its channel top.

 

This morning EURUSD has made a successful attempt to break above this resistance level.

 

With European CPI data out this morning and the markets eyeing events in Athens we may see some volatility hit the Euro trade today.

 

Today I will be monitoring a continuation of the recent up move towards the 1.1465 resistance level.

 

The breach of the 1.1295 level being the prior isolated swing high has changed the trend from down to up.

EURUSD

 

http://acfxacademy.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/03022015EURUSDH1.png

 

The intraday technical outlook

 

Yesterday EURUSD broke out of its down channel.

 

The price action is currently trading within a five day range.

 

A break above or below this range could indicate the direction of the medium term trend with key levels being 1.1220 and 1.1420.

 

The breach of the 1.1295 level being the prior isolated swing high has changed the trend from down to up.

 

From a technical perspective EURUSD is trading in an intraday 1 hour uptrend with the line of control at the 1.1295 level.

 

 

GBPUSD

 

http://acfxacademy.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/03022015GBPUSDH1.png

 

The intraday technical outlook

 

Following Cable’s break above it’s down channel the bulls would have hoped that there would have been some upside follow through.

 

However this was not to be with GBPUSD pairing a lot of the gains of its recent up move.

 

The price action tested and was repelled by at the 1.4990 level.

 

This morning GDPUSD is once again retesting the 1.4990 support level.

 

The breach of the 1.5150 support level has technically changed the trend from up to down.

However the move lower was short lived as the price action moved back to the 117.75 resistance level.

I am this morning monitoring the price action for a retest of 117.75 resistance level.

http://acfxacademy.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/030202015AUDUSDH1.png

 

The intraday technical outlook

 

The action by the Reserve Bank of Australia has sent the Aussie Dollar into free fall.

 

The comments from the RBA that their Dollar is still over valued can only put more pressure on AUDUSD.

 

The next major level for AUDUSD is the 0.7315 weekly support target.

The intraday technical outlook

 

Some positive sentiment has come back into the market as traders have begun to bet that the fall in the price of crude has found a floor.

 

With the price of crude rebounding off the US$45.00 level and is currently trading above the US$50.00 level the rally so far has been very impressive.

EURUSD

 

http://acfxacademy.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/04022015EURUSDH1.png

 

The intraday technical outlook

 

EURUSD yesterday experienced a strong rally yesterday following the conciliatory statements coming from the Greek administration.

 

The move higher has taken EURUSD back into major resistance in the shape of the 21 period daily moving averages.

 

Professional traders will be eyeing this level for signs of weakness that sends EURUSD back into its downward intraday direction.

 

The breach of the 1.1295 level being the prior isolated swing high has changed the trend from down to up.

 

From a technical perspective EURUSD is trading in an intraday 1 hour uptrend with the line of control at the 1.1310 level.

 

 

GBPUSD

 

http://acfxacademy.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/040202015GBPUSDH1.png

 

The intraday technical outlook

 

Yesterday’s UK construction PMI data helped pushed GBPUSD higher.

 

With the FTSE 100 now feeding off capital inflows that stimulate higher stock market prices could add to a further appreciation in the price of cable.

 

The price action has now put in place a double bottom formation at the 1.4990 level.

 

This followed a prior break above a large down channel.

USDJPY

 

http://acfxacademy.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/04022015USDJPYH1.png

 

The intraday technical outlook

 

The price action that has unfolded over the past two days has had the effect of creating a double bottom formation above the 116.90 level.

 

The daily chart would indicate that a large converging triangle is forming.

 

With the trend being so bullish on the weekly time frame I would look for an upside break of this consolidation pattern.

 

However as always it would be better to allow the break to happen and then trade the pullback in the direction of the initial move.

USDCHF

The intraday technical outlook

 

Yesterday’s breach of the 0.9250 level has technically changed the trend from up to down.

 

This moves corresponds to the price action coming into an area of resistance of the 21 period daily moving averages.

 

From a technical perspective USDCHF is trading in an intraday 1 hour downtrend with the line of control at the 0.9295 level.

 

 

AUDUSD

 

http://acfxacademy.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/04022015AUDUSDH1.png

 

The intraday technical outlook

 

Yesterday we witnessed a move that breached the large down channel that has formed around the AUDUSD price action.

 

This morning we have seen a follow through of yesterdays move.

 

The move above the 0.7800 has technical changed the trend from down to up.

 

From a technical perspective AUDUSD is trading in an intraday 1 hour uptrend with the line of control at the 0.7630 level.

 

 

GOLD

 

http://acfxacademy.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/04022015GOLDH1.png

 

The intraday technical outlook

 

Yesterday’s mini collapse in the price of Gold has now created a double top formation at the 1284.00 level.

 

The move lower also took out the 1269.00 level. The breach of this isolated low has technical changed the intraday trend from up to down.

 

The price action is now trading with a range of 1254.00 to 1284.00.

 

A breach above or beneath these levels could possibly indicate the medium term trend direction.

 

From a technical perspective Gold is trading in an intraday 1 hour downtrend with the line of control at the 1284.00 level.

 

 

OIL

 

http://acfxacademy.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/04022015CLH5H1.png

 

The intraday technical outlook

 

News from the United States that the crude extractors are now pulling rigs is giving the bulls hope that the fall in the price of oil is now done.

 

What is now of interest is the weekly time frame. If we can now get a weekly close above the high of the prior weeks candle then we technically have a reversal signal.

 

However to say that the market has found its bottom is still very premature.

 

From a technical perspective Oil is trading in an intraday 1 hour uptrend with the line of control at the 44.25 level.

EURUSD

 

http://acfxacademy.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/0032015EURUSDH1.png

 

The intraday technical outlook

 

With all the main central banks due to make announcement and with it being NFP day this Friday it looks like to another volatile and hectic week in the life of a EURUSD trader.

 

The price action has now well and truly broken its triangle formation with this mornings price activity breaching Thursday’s low.

 

This opens up the possibility for a potential move down to the 1.1100 prior weekly swing level.

 

From a technical perspective EURUSD is trading in an intraday 1 hour down trend with the line of control at the 1.1245 level.

 

 

GBPUSD

 

http://acfxacademy.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/02032015GBPUSDH1.png

 

The intraday technical outlook

 

With the Bank of England Governor due to speak tomorrow the markets will be looking for signs of any hawkishness on interest rate policy.

 

We have had a strong pull back to the 1.5400 level which has broken the down channel.

 

However I am not not convinced that the down trend will continue.

 

I really want to see a sustained move under the 1.5400 level.

 

This leads us back tomorrow and the tone and the areas of grey in Mr. Carney’s testimony.

 

From a technical perspective GBPUSD is trading in an intraday 1 hour up trend with the line of control at the 1.5400 level.

The intraday technical outlook

 

During Friday afternoon the Dollar bulls took control of the market and pushed USDJPY higher.

 

This move as continued into this morning with USDJPY testing and trading above the 119.80 level.

 

The recent price action has now created a fairly broad up channel.

 

From a technical perspective USDJPY is trading in an intraday 1 hour up trend with the line of control at the 119.10 level.

 

 

USDCHF

 

http://acfxacademy.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/02032015USDCHFH1.png

 

The intraday technical outlook

 

The 0.9450 level did provide strong support and a base for higher prices which Friday’s price action testing last weeks high.

 

This mornings price action has completed the job by painting a new recent high and in the process creating a much more broader and potentially more sustainable up channel.

 

From a technical perspective USDCHF is trading in an intraday 1 hour up trend with the line of control at the 0.9450 level.

 

AUDUSD

 

http://acfxacademy.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/02032015AUDUSDH1.png

 

The intraday technical outlook

 

The markets would seem to have priced in a rate cut tomorrow by Australia Reserve Bank.

 

This could potentially be the reason behind the recent collapse in the value of the Aussie which has seen the price action breach the bottom of no less than two up channels.

 

From a technical perspective the pair is trading in an intraday 1 hour down trend with the line of control at the 0.7830 level.

 

GOLD

 

http://acfxacademy.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/02032015GOLDH1.png

 

The intraday technical outlook

 

Gold continues to trade higher in a staircase formation.

 

However the steepness of the up trend does cause me some concern.

 

I would therefore like to see a broadening of the up channel.

 

From a technical perspective Gold is trading in an intraday 1 hour up trend with the line of control at the 1204.00 level.

 

OIL

 

http://acfxacademy.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/02032015CLJ5H1.png

 

The intraday technical outlook

 

Friday’s price action has had the effect of breaching the large down channel.

 

Although this type of price action could be seen as a warning signal that the down trend is about to reverse I would really need to see a successful retest of the 49.80 level being the area of the most recent isolated high to be convinced that a new up trend is underway.

 

From a technical perspective Oil is trading in an intraday 1 hour down trend with the line of control at the 51.00 level.
