EUR/USD:
Looking at the weekly chart, we can see that prices are currently testing our support target at 1.17500, which coincides with 78.6% Fibonacci retracement and ascending trend line. The daily time frame echoes the same bullish view as well as prices are sitting on our support target at 1.1750.
On the H4 timeframe, prices could see limited downside before it reaches our support level at 1.17500, in line with the graphical support level found on the bigger time frames, where we could see a bounce above this level to our H4 resistance level at 1.1800. This level lines up with the graphical resistance area and 23.6% fibonacci retracement. Keeping in mind that prices are sitting on a key support level on the daily and weekly time frames, a break above our H4 resistance level at 1.1800 could see a further upside to our next resistance target at 1.18300.
Areas of consideration:
- 1800 resistance area found on H4 time frame
- 17500 support area found on H4 time frame

Areas of consideration:
- 38200 resistance area found on H4 time frame
- 36800 support area found on H4 timeframe

We may see a push towards the weekly and Daily support level at 0.75556, in line with the previous swing low. However, if price fails to hold below the 0.7645 level we may see a swing towards major level 0.77 in line with 100% fibonacci extension.
Areas of consideration:
- H4 showing bearish momentum and may find support at 0.75556
- Daily time frame showed a complete bearish head and shoulder pattern.

USD/CHF:
USD/CHF continues to approach the weekly 0.95000 resistance level, in line with our 61.8% Fibonacci retracement and descending trendline resistance. The daily chart also shows a further rise above the daily 0.92300 support level as price approaches the key 0.95000 resistance level. We could potentially see price rise further to test the key weekly 0.95000 resistance level.
On the H4 chart, we see that price has broken above the 0.93800 resistance-turned-support level, and is now pulling back to retest the same level again. We note that price is also testing the moving average support and is now holding above it, in line with our short-term bullish bias. In this scenario, we could potentially see a bounce at the 0.93800 resistance-turned-support and a further rise towards the key weekly 0.95000 resistance level. Otherwise, should price break below 0.93800, we could see a stronger pullback towards the daily 0.92300 support level instead.
Areas of consideration:
- Price broke above the 0.93800 resistance-turned-support, and is now retesting the same level.
- Price could potentially push higher to test the key weekly 0.95000 resistance level.
Dow Jones Industrial Average:
On the weekly chart, price continues to hold between 31190 support and 34600 resistance. Traders should continue watching these two long term levels. On the Daily, we see price pulling back, however technical indicators continue to show room for further bullish momentum. Buyers could possibly look to add to their longs on any price pullbacks with possible target at 34600 weekly resistance. Otherwise, failure to hold above 31190 could see price pull back towards weekly support at 29570.
On the H4, price tested and bounced above 32148 support and is pushing up towards 33590 resistance. If prices could continue to make a higher high, it could signal the continuation of the bullish momentum. EMA is also below the prices, showing a bullish pressure. However, if prices made a lower high and dropped below the 32138 support, prices could well push down even further towards 31191 level.
Areas of consideration:
- Watch short term H4 support at 32148
- Price still holding above moving average on both short term H4 and long term weekly timeframes
XAU/USD (GOLD):
On the weekly timeframe, gold is currently holding between 1760 resistance and 1680 support. Long term traders should continue to watch these two levels as a break of either will see price swing in that direction. However, we note that price is still holding below the long term moving average. On the daily chart, we see price drifting sideways whilst holding below 1760 resistance, in line with our 23.6% Fibonacci retracement. A limited push down to test 1680 support could be likely. As long as 1760 resistance is not broken, sellers can watch for opportunities to sell on further rise. Otherwise a break above 1760 resistance should see price swing the other way.
On the H4 timeframe, prices are testing and holding above 1700 support level, in line with our 127.2% fibonacci extension and 61.8% fibonacci retracement. With Stochastic reacting above support where price bounced in the past, we still see a low probability bullish scenario where a push up to our H4 resistance at 1725 is possible, in line with our 50% fibonacci retracement and 78.6% fibonacci extension. Otherwise, failure to hold above 1700 support could see price drop deeper towards the 1680 support level, which is also found on the daily and weekly time frames.
Areas of consideration:
- 1700 support area found on H4 time frame
- 1680 support area found on all timeframes
