The price channel of EUR/GBP pair is getting stronger shown by statistics last week. Both Stochastics and EMA moved relatively and a fairly strong reversal is expected to happen. This gives a positive outlook to the currency pair.

The pair moves upward even higher than the past few weeks and this is expected to keep on.

The recent bearishness pushed the H4 Stochastic oscillator into the oversold area and the EMA lingers to be bullish. Hence, the selling pressure was reduced early this week and to continue to move upward. The H4 chart is hinting a recent downtrend implies that there is still a plausibility to gain momentum.

It could reach as high as 0.8760 level while if it goes a low as 0.8721 indicates an agile resistance. Fundamentals are relevant to move beyond the zone of resistance and investors should be careful with this when it reaches the 0.8721 mark.

The Japanese Yen decreased its value during Wednesday’s trading session, causing the USD/JPY pair to increase its value by up to 0.257 points or +0.26% to close at 100.67 points. The increased demand for commodity currencies and stocks was caused by a report that OPEC had already consented to decreasing its overall output, which last occurred in 2008. Reliable sources from OPEC are saying that the organization would be reducing its oil outputs to 32.5 million barrels daily from its current output of 33.24 million barrels a day.

The USD started strengthening earlier during the session after a recovery of European equity markets increased the risk appetites of investors which then removed their focus from the safe haven currency. The USD/JPY benefitted from the wide-range risk-on sentiment after the statement from OPEC increased activity in the US stock market.

The US market surged primarily due to statements from Fed and a highly durable US goods report. Core Durable Goods Orders data decreased by 0.4% in August, going way below the expected reading of 0.5% and even lower than the expected July reading of 1.3%. However, DGO data was slightly better than the estimate of -1 and went significantly lower than July’s prediction of 3.6%.
