AUD/USD: Australian dollar is strengthening 17.10.2018

Good afternoon, dear forum visitors!

NPBFX offers the latest release of analytics on the AUD/USD for a better understanding of the current market situation and more efficient trading.

Current trend

AUD continues growing moderately against USD, updating local highs of October 3. The reason for the development of "bullish" dynamics of the instrument is in technical factors, as well as in the overall decline in risk-taking interest of traders amid worsening US relations with China and Saudi Arabia.

On Tuesday, the RBA meeting minutes were published but they did not disclose anything new to investors. RBA officials noted the acceleration of GDP due to an increase in investment in subsoil use and consumption growth, employment growth, and a decrease in unemployment. The current policy of the regulator will continue to support the Australian economy; there are no convincing arguments for raising interest rates.

Today, the pair is trading in both directions, waiting for new drivers. The published MI Leading Index was worse than analysts' expectations and fell by 0.1% MoM against 0.0% MoM in the previous month.

Support and resistance

Bollinger Bands in D1 chart demonstrate a gradual decrease. The price range is narrowing, reflecting the flat dynamics of trading in the medium term. MACD indicator is growing keeping a stable buy signal (located above the signal line). Stochastic keeps its upward direction but is approaching its maximum levels, which reflects the overbought AUD in the ultra-short term.

Existing long positions should be kept until the situation clears up.

Resistance levels: 0.7150, 0.7175, 0.7200, 0.7234.

Support levels: 0.7130, 0.7100, 0.7068, 0.7039.

Trading tips

To open long positions, one can rely on the breakout of 0.7150. Take profit — 0.7200 or 0.7234. Stop loss — 0.7120 or 0.7110. Implementation period: 1-3 days.

The rebound from 0.7150 as from resistance with the subsequent breakdown of 0.7130 can become a signal to begin correctional sales with target at 0.7068 or 0.7039. Stop loss — 0.7160. Implementation period: 2-3 days.

EUR/USD: euro remains under pressure 19.10.2018

Good afternoon, dear forum visitors!

NPBFX offers the latest release of analytics on the EUR/USD for a better understanding of the current market situation and more efficient trading.

Current trend

Yesterday, EUR fell significantly against USD, renewing its lows since October 10, due to the general strengthening of USD after strict Fed’s statements on further interest rate growth. USD was additionally supported by a sharp decline in the Chinese yuan, which continues today due to poor data on China's Q3 GDP.

EUR is under pressure of uncertain Brexit prospects and the tightening of the situation around the Italian budget for the next year. Yesterday, investors were focused on the summit of EU leaders in Brussels. There were no new proposals to solve the Irish border problem, and an agreement with the UK was not concluded. However, officials are developing a new mechanism to allow the UK to leave the EU as painlessly as possible. The idea is to extend the negotiations on the Irish border for a certain period after the end of the Brexit procedure itself.

Support and resistance

On the daily chart, Bollinger bands are moderately reduced. The price range is narrowing, letting the "bears" renew local lows. MACD is decreasing, keeping a moderate sell signal (the histogram is below the signal line). Stochastic falls, however, is in close proximity to zero values, which reflects that EUR is oversold in the super short term.
It is better to keep current short positions until the situation is clear.

Resistance levels: 1.1460, 1.1500, 1.1522, 1.1547.

Support levels: 1.1430, 1.1400, 1.1352.

Trading tips

Long positions can be opened after a reversal near the current support levels and the breakout of 1.1460–1.1470 with the target of 1.1580 or 1.1600. Stop loss is 1.1430. Implementation period: 2–3 days.

Short positions can be opened after the breakdown of 1.1430 with the target at 1.1352. Stop loss is 1.1460–1.1470. Implementation period: 1–2 days.

GBP/USD: the pound remains under pressure 31.10.2018

Good afternoon, dear forum visitors!

NPBFX offers the latest release of analytics on the GBP/USD for a better understanding of the current market situation and more efficient trading.

Current trend

Yesterday, GBP fell against USD and updated lows since August 17.

Presented by Chancellor Philip Hammond on Monday, the 2019 UK draft budget did not impress investors significantly. As expected, it contains some new taxes, including alcohol and tobacco ones. On the other hand, expenses for work benefits and investments in infrastructure and health care should be increased. Next year, the government plans the economy to grow by 1.6% (against the previous value of 1.3%), while the budget deficit is expected to reach 25.5B GBP. In case of the Brexit negative outcome, some budget parameters may be revised in March 2019.

Also, investors are waiting for Thursday’s BoE interest rate decision. Experts agree that the key parameters of the British monetary policy would not be changed. Most likely, the regulator will wait for the development of the Brexit situation.

Support and resistance

On the daily chart, Bollinger bands are steadily declining. The price range is expanding almost as fast as the active “bearish” trend develops in the short term. MACD indicator is falling, keeping a strong sell signal (the histogram is below the signal line). Stochastic is directed downwards but is close to its lows, reflecting that GBP may become oversold.

It is better to keep current short positions until the situation is clear.

Resistance levels: 1.2732, 1.2796, 1.2866, 1.2920, 1.2953.

The levels of support: 1.2693, 1.2659, 1.2634, 1.2600.

Trading tips

Long positions can be opened after a rebound from 1.2693 and the breakout of 1.2732 with the targets at 1.2866 or 1.2920–1.2953. Implementation period: 2–3 days.

Short positions can be opened after the breakdown of the level of 1.2693 with the target of 1.2634 or 1.2600. Stop loss is 1.2732–1.2750. Implementation period: 1–2 days.
