GBP/USD

GBP/USD continues to incline, ignoring the overbought signs on momentum indicator, while ADX remains positive.

GBP/USD Chart

Moving averages are positive, while the pair trades around 1.4725. We need to affirm stability above 88.6% to target 1.4830.

On the downside, coming below 1.4600 will cause failure and we prefer to see the pair below 1.4675.

Support: 1.4725 – 1.4675 – 1.4600

Resistance: 1.4775 – 1.4830 – 1.4895

Direction: Bullish

EUR/USD

Euro attempted to incline after stabilizing above 61.8% Fibonacci at 1.1125. Trading below moving averages and below 1.1220 doesn’t affirm end of bearishness.

EUR/USD Chart

RSI shows resumption of downside actions with a trade below 50.00 levels. We remain neutral today.

Support: : 1.1125 – 1.1070 – 1.1055

Resistance: 1.1170 –1.1225 – 1.1285

Direction: Neutral

USD/CHF

Once again, the trading range on USD/CHF remains very tight, while we see how the pair continued to stabilize above 0.9860-0.9850 supports, neglecting the overbought sign on RSI14 over daily basis.

USD/CHF Chart

RSI shows the need for some kind of relief, while ADX shows decrease in bulls’ power.

Coming above 0.9980 will be bullish, but trading beneath 0.9850-0.9530 areas will be bearish.

For now, we remain neutral over intraday basis, waiting for an actionable setup to present itself in order to pinpoint the next big move.

Support: 0.9860-0.9805-0.9780

Resistance: 0.9945-0.9980-1.0000

Direction: Neutral

USD/JPY

USD/JPY has moved within a tight range yesterday, but it succeeded in stabilizing above 109.60 again despite re-testing 109.40 during the Asian session.

USD/JPY Chart

Meanwhile, we see an attempt from SMA20 - green - to touch SMA50 - red - along with positivity on RSI and ADX indicators.

Therefore we will be bullish, but we need a sustained breakout above 110.30 to affirm the bullishness that remains clearer over weekly studies.

Support: 109.60-109.20-109.65

Resistance: 110.30-110.60-111.05

Direction: Bullish, but we will avoid trading until it takes out 110.30.
