USD/JPY
From the weekly timeframe, prices are bullish and are pushing up towards facing resistance from horizontal swing high resistance level 114.465 which coincides with 127.2% Fibonacci retracement. On the daily time frame, prices are holding nicely above the 21 period EMA. Prices have broken through the previous resistance level of 110.978 and are now pushing up towards the weekly level of 114.665,in line with 100% Fibonacci extension. A pullback from that level could mean prices would take support on 108.425 level.
On the H4 timeframe, prices have broken through the previous swing high which is daily/weekly resistance level of 110.978. Next short term target is 112.148 level in line with 127.2% Fibonacci extension before the 114.665 level on the daily and weekly timeframe. However, prices might have a short term pullback towards the ascending trendline support, with a possible bounce happening at our ascending trendline support. A break of the ascending trendline will see prices push down towards the 109.786 level which is in line with 61.8% Fibonacci retracement and 100% Fibonacci extension. Stochastics is also approaching 20.45 level, potential for bounce.
Areas of consideration:
● 112.148 resistance level on the H4 timeframe might be next upside target
● Prices are holding above ascending trendline on the H4 timeframe
USD/CAD:
On the Weekly timeframe, price is within a long term descending trend. Holding below long term moving average and MACD indicator is below 0, showing strong bearish momentum. Price is currently holding between long term resistance at 1.25470 and long term support at 1.20068. On the Daily timeframe, we see that the indicators are showing a build up in bullish momentum. It is possible to see further bullish pressure above support at 1.21772 with possible upside target at weekly resistance 1.25470. Otherwise, failure to hold above 1.21772 will see price swing to graphical low at 1.20068.
On the H4, we see price testing the previous swing high area at 1.248, in line with 127% fibonacci retracement, if it manages to break above this level, we may see a further push up towards the Weekly Resistance, in line with 161.8% fibonacci retracement.
Areas of consideration:
● 1.24800 resistance is level to watch on H4
● 1.22838 support is level to watch on H4
USD/CHF:
USD/CHF has shown a strong bounce from the weekly 0.89500 support, in line with 61.8% Fibonacci retracement and 78.6% Fibonacci extension, and price is now moving sideways. The daily chart shows that price is now testing the key daily 0.92300 support-turned-resistance and ascending trendline support-turned-resistance. We could potentially see further downside below the 0.92300 resistance.
On the H4 chart, we can see that price has pulled back to retest the 0.92300 resistance area, in line with 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level. The 0.92300 resistance level is a key intraday level to watch. In this scenario, we could see price reverse and drop towards 0.90500 support, in line with 61.8% Fibonacci retracement, 161.8% Fibonacci extension and horizontal pullback resistance. However, should price break and close above the 0.92300 resistance, we could see price push higher to test the subsequent weekly resistances.
Areas of consideration:
● The 0.92300 resistance is a key intraday level to watch.
● We could see price reverse and drop towards the next 0.90500 support level.
Dow Jones Industrial Average:
On the weekly chart, prices bounced higher above 32765 support. With price holding 32765 support, we might see bullish pressure above this level. On the daily chart, price pushed higher and is currently holding below resistance at 35090. With stochastic still testing resistance where price dropped in the past, we see price facing possible bearish pressure.
On the H4, price broke above descending trendline resistance (now support). With MACD indicator above 0, showing room for further bullish momentum, we see a low probability bounce scenario where price would face bullish pressure above 34358 support and a possible upside target at 35090 daily resistance. Otherwise failure to hold above 34358 should see price swing the other way towards 33955 support.
Areas of consideration:
● 34358 H4 support is level to watch
XAU/USD (GOLD):
On the weekly timeframe, price tested and bounced above key trendline pullback support at 1764. On the daily, price is also testing key 1764 weekly support. While 1764 support looks fragile, as long as we do not have a daily close below this support, we may see price bounce towards 1855 resistance. Otherwise, breaking below 1764 support, price could drop lower towards 1677 support next.
On the H4, price pulled lower below 1808 resistance. With stochastic coming close to resistance, price continues to face bearish pressure below 1808 resistance with a possible short term downside target at 1764 support. Otherwise, breaking above 1808 resistance zone will see price push higher towards the next resistance at 1855.
Areas of consideration:
● 1764 support is the key level to watch.
● 1808 resistance on H4 to watch.
