Technical analysis of GBP/JPY for January 26, 2018 ![]() We will retain our upside target prediction today as well. The pair is reversing up, and is now above its 20-period and 50-period moving averages. A strong support base has formed around 135.40, and should limit any downside room. In addition, the relative strength index is bullish above its neutrality area at 50, calling for a new bounce. Hence, above 154.80, look for a new rise to 155.60 and 156.10 in extension. Alternatively, if the price moves in the direction opposite to the forecast, a short position is recommended below 154.80 with the target at 154.40 Strategy: BUY, stop loss at 154.80, take profit at 155.60 Chart Explanation: the black line shows the pivot point. The price above the pivot point indicates long positions; and when it is below the pivot point, it indicates short positions. The red lines show the support levels and the green line indicates the resistance levels. These levels can be used to enter and exit trades. Resistance levels: 155.50, 156.10, and 156.50. Support levels: 154.40, 154.10, and 153.70 Read more: https://www.instaforex.com/forex_analysis/108325 |

GBP/USD analysis for January 30, 2018 ![]() Recently, the GBP/USD pair has been trading downwards. The price tested the level of 1.3979. Anyway, according to the 30M time – frame, I found a bullish breakout of the supply trendline (resistance), which is a sign that buyers are in control. I also found a hidden bullish divergence on the moving average oscillator and a fake breakout of yesterday's low, which is another sign of strength. My advice is to watch for potential buying opportunities. The upward targets are set at the price of 1.4092 and at the price of 1.4150. Resistance levels: R1: 1.4148 R2: 1.4220 R3: 1.4280 Support levels: S1: 1.4015 S2: 1.3950 S3: 1.3880 Trading recommendations for today: watch for potential buying opportunities.

Technical analysis of GBP/JPY for January 31, 2018 ![]() Our first upside target which we predicted in yesterday's analysis has been hit. The pair turned bearish as the prices broke below the rising trend line. The downward momentum is further reinforced by both declining 20-period and 50-period moving averages.

Therefore, below 154.45, look for a new decline with targets at 153.20 and 152.80 in extension Alternatively, if the price moves in the direction opposite to the forecast, a LONG position is recommended above 154.45 with the target at 155.

Fundamental Analysis of USD/CAD for February 8, 2018 USDCAD has been quite impulsive with the bullish gains recently which is expected to continue further in the coming days. USD has been the dominant currency since the recent Employment Change report was published with the significant increase which had a positive impact on the currency to gain against CAD. Ahead of the Employment Change report of CAD which is expected to decrease to 10.3k from the previous figure of 78.6k and Unemployment Rate increasing to 5.8% from the previous value of 5.7%, CAD is expected to lose more grounds against USD in the coming days. Today CAD Housing Starts report is going to be published which is expected to decrease to 211k from the previous figure of 218k, NHPI report is expected to be unchanged at 0.1% and Government Council Member Wilkins is going to speak about upcoming interest rate decision and monetary policies which are expected to inject volatility into the market before today's daily close. On the USD side, today Unemployment Claims report is going to be published which is expected to increase to 232k from the previous figure of 230k and Mortgage Delinquencies, which is the late payment value of the previous quarter for the mortgage, is expected to decrease from the previous value of 4.88%. As of the current scenario, CAD is expected to have worse economic report results in the coming days which is expected to add more to the USD gains. As USD has been in a great momentum after the recent Employment Change report, whereas worse result on the CAD Employment Change is expected to lead to more impulsive gain on USD side in the future. Now let us look at the technical view. The price has bounced higher above 1.24 recently after the positive Employment Change report of USD which was also notified in the chart as Regular Bullish Divergence. The price is currently heading towards 1.2620 from where if it is broken with a daily close, further target towards 1.29 is expected in the coming days. As the price remains above 1.24 with a daily close, the bullish bias is expected to continue further. ![]() Read more: https://www.instaforex.com/forex_analysis/109310 |

GBP/USD testing major resistance, remain bearish The price has shot up to test our selling area before reversing nicely once more. We remain bearish looking to sell on strength below major resistance at 1.3991 (Fibonacci retracement, horizontal pullback resistance, double top breakout level) for a strong push down to at least 1.3639 support (Fibonacci extension, double top exit potential, horizontal pullback support). RSI (34) has made a bearish exit from its long-term ascending support-turn-resistance line signaling that we should be seeing a change in momentum to bearish on GBPUSD. Sell below 1.3991.

Bitcoin analysis for 12/02/2018 French and German finance ministers are still demanding strict regulation of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. According to reports, the French Finance Minister Bruno Le Maire and the Interim German Finance Minister Peter Altmaier wrote a letter to fellow finance ministers of the G20, in which they argue that cryptocurrencies are not only risky for investors but also threaten the long-term global financial stability. "Given the rapid increase in the capitalization of tokens and the emergence of new financial instruments, these changes should be closely monitored (...) Such variable tokens may have detrimental consequences for uninformed investors who do not understand the risks they are exposed to." - they write. Of course, this sentiment can be easily interpreted as coming from authorities of traditional financial institutions, experiencing increasing pressure from the rapidly growing, and the increasingly popular cryptocurrency market, which aims to disrupt traditional financial structures. The Finance Minister Bruno Le Maire and the Interim German Finance Minister Peter Altmaier are not the only ones who are concerned about Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. The member of the Board of the European Central Bank Yves Mersch expressed his negative opinion on Thursday, stating that cryptocurrencies are not money, nor will they be in the foreseeable future. In addition, the head of the Agency for International Settlements Agustin Carstens expressed his deep-rooted concerns by asking the central banks to close Bitcoin, claiming that cryptocurrencies are becoming a threat to financial stability. Let's now take a look at the Bitcoin technical picture at the H4 time frame. The bounce from the level of $5,830 was in three waves only, so the overall strength of the market might not be not that much visible, and the current wave progression is still in favor of another corrective wave to the upside. The key technical resistance is still the zone at the level of $9.146 - $9,515. ![]() |

Fundamental Analysis of GBP/USD for February 13, 2018 GBP/USD has recently broken the support area of 1.3850-1.3950 which has turned as a resistance area now. The market flow has been quite slow and corrective after breaking below the support and is expected to proceed lower in the coming days. GBP having unchanged after Official Bank Rates and Hawkish Bank of England statement failed to gain the momentum it needed to counter against the impulsive bearish move in the pair recently. Today, GBP CPI report is going to be published which is expected to decrease to 2.9% from the previous value of 3.0%, PPI Input is expected to increase to 0.7% from the previous value of 0.1%, RPI report is expected to show an unchanged value of 4.1%, Core CPI is expected to increase to 2.6% from the previous value of 2.5%, HPI report is expected to decrease to 4.9% from the previous value of 5.1%, and PPI Output is also expected to decrease to 0.2% from the previous value of 0.4%. The economic reports are expected to have mixed outcome which is expected to lead to further correction and volatility in the market ahead of the high influencing economic reports of USD to be published this week. On the other hand, today, USD NFIB Small Business Index report is going to be published which is expected to increase to 106.2 from the previous figure of 104.9, and FOMC Member Mester is going to speak about the monetary policies and the upcoming interest rate decision which is more likely to have an increase on March 2018. As of the current scenario, USD is expected to be the dominant currency in the pair having GBP struggling with the mixed economic reports and market sentiment not favoring the GBP gains despite having positive economic reports and events recently. Now let us look at the technical view. The price is currently residing at the edge of the 1.3850-1.3950 resistance area from where the price is expected to proceed lower towards the 1.36 support area. The price is being held by the dynamic level of 20 EMA as well which also increased the probability of the upcoming bearish pressure in the pair. As the price remains below the 1.3850-1.3950 resistance area, the bearish bias is expected to continue further. ![]() Read more: https://www.instaforex.com/forex_analysis/109607 |

The dollar has good reasons to turn up As a result of Wednesday, the US dollar collapsed against all major currencies. What's very strange is this happened against the background of positive data on consumer inflation in the US which showed growth in monthly terms while annual values showed a continued growth rate. According to the data presented, consumer inflation in annual terms remained at the same level of 2.1%. The forecast predicted it to fall to 1.9%. On a monthly basis, the index rose sharply by 0.5% against expectations of an increase of 0.3% and a revised upward of December's 0.2%. The figures of the basic consumer price index (CPI) were also pleasing. The annual value of the indicator remained at the previous level of 1.8%. It was assumed that it would drop to 1.7%. Last month, the base index added 0.3% while it was expected to increase by 0.2% as in December following the revision. First, the dollar reacted to these positive figures with a noticeable increase in relation to all major currencies but then everything changed. It was actively sold against major currencies which in turn, supported prices for commodity and raw materials. Against this background, the share market in the United States has grown. And the traders clearly ignored the strong growth in yields of government bonds of the US Treasury. The yield on the two-year notes added more than 2% on the day's results, indicating a strong increase in expectations for growth rates in March. Futures on federal funds jumped to around 83.1%, indicating that interest rates will be raised by 0.25% at the March meeting. In general, everything that happened in the US stock market that hit at the dollar rate, can be characterized as preparation for probable global sales. This will only intensify because of the nearest meeting of the Fed. Ultimately, the increase in yields of government bonds will have an impact on the stock market and it will begin to fall. An important signal to this is a sharp increase in the yield on Wednesday of 10-year Treasuries which grew above the 2.9% mark. In the end, we continue to expect the dollar to turn up towards the Fed meeting next month. Forecast of the day: The EURUSD pair rose on the wave of a local weakening of the dollar. It is likely that against the backdrop of rising volatility and a prospective rate hike in the US, the pair will fall to 1.2345 if it overcomes the 1.2445 mark. The GBPUSD pair also has a potential to decline to 1.3835 if it falls below the level of 1.3990. ![]() ![]() Read more: https://www.instaforex.com/forex_analysis/199790 |

The dollar was unlucky again Data on producer prices unexpectedly turned out to be quite good, as their growth rates accelerated from 2.6% to 2.7%. However, the dollar did not help. Strongly disappointed with data on applications for benefits. Not only that the number of initial applications increased from 223, 000 to 230,000 , so the number of continuing applications increased from 1,927,000 to 1,942,000. But the growth rate of industrial production accelerated from 3.4% to 3.7%. But concerns about the overheating of the labor market prevailed, which did not allow the dollar to strengthen. Today there are data on retail sales in the UK, the growth rate of which should increase from 1.4% to 2.6%, which is a clear positive factor against the background of slowing inflation. At the same time, in the U.S., it is forecasted an increase in the number of construction project starts from 1,192,000 to 1,234, 000, while a reduction in the number of issued construction permits from 1,302, 000 to 1,300, 000. Given the strong oversold dollar, it is expected to strengthen against the backdrop of growth number of construction sites. The euro/dollar pair has all opportunities to decline to 1.2450. ![]() It is expected to reduce the pair pound / dollar to 1.4075. ![]() Read more: https://www.instaforex.com/forex_analysis/199887 |

Technical analysis of GBP/USD for February 19, 2018 ![]() Overview: The GBP/USD pair opened below the resistance of 1.4055. It continued to move downwards from the level of 1.4055 to the bottom around 1.4015. Today, the first resistance level is seen at 1.4055 followed by 1.4123, while the daily support 1 is seen at 1.3901. Furthermore, the moving average (100) starts signaling a downward trend; therefore, the market is indicating a bearish opportunity below 1.4055. So it will be good to sell at 1.4055 with the first target of 1.3986. It will also call for a downtrend in order to continue towards 1.3901. The strong daily support is seen at the 1.3901 level. According to the previous events, we expect the GBP/USD pair to trade between 1.4055 and 1.3901 in the coming hours. The price area of 1.4123 remains a significant resistance zone. Thus, the trend is still bearish as long as the level of 1.4123 is not broken. On the contrary, in case a reversal takes place and the GBP/USD pair breaks through the resistance level of 1.4123, then a stop loss should be placed at 1.4160.

[B]The text of the Fed's protocol can further strengthen the dollar[/B] The market is looking forward to the publication of the text during the minutes of the meeting of the Federal Commission for Open Market Operations, as they hope to see an answer to the question regarding the pace of the rate increase. Against the backdrop of lacking news on the previous days, the dollar has some strengthened in anticipation of today's news. First preliminary data on business activity indices in Europe came out, which can further ruin the life of the single European currency. The index in the service sector should decrease from 58.0 to 57.6, and the production index from 59.6 to 59.3, and as a result, the composite index will decrease from 58.8 to 58.5. But the pound has a chance to improve its position to some extent. Not only that, the number of applications for unemployment benefit in the previous month of 8,600 last month may increase by 4,100 amid the stability of the unemployment rate and the rate of wage growth. Also, borrowing of the public sector should be reduced by 11.1 billion pounds. However, the dollar's growth will increase in the second half of the day. Preliminary data on indices of business activity can show growth. In particular, the index in the service sector should grow from 53.3 to 54.0, although the production index may fall from 55.5 to 55.4. But the service sector has a heavier impact, the composite index is expected to grow from 53.8 to 54.4. Moreover, home sales in the secondary market may show an increase of 0.9%. Well, the most important event not only for the day but also for the whole week s the publication of the text of the minutes of the recent meeting of the Federal Commission for Open Market Operations. The regulator planned, as many as, three increases for the current year. If the Fed confirms its plans last year, then the dollar will have many reasons for growth. The EUR/USD pair will decline to the level of 1.2250. If the contents of the text of the protocol disappoint investors, we should expect growth to 1.2425.It should contain answers to the question about the rate of increase in the refinancing rate in the current year. At the moment, almost everyone agrees that the Fed will raise the rate at least once.

AUD/USD is approaching major support, prepare for a bounce Price is approaching major support at 0.7731 (Fibonacci extension, Fibonacci retracement, horizontal overlap support), and a strong bounce from this level would push the price up towards the 0.7986 resistance (Fibonacci retracement, horizontal swing high resistance). We have to be careful about intermediate resistance at 0.7890 too. Stochastic (34,5,3) is seeing major support at 0.4% where a corresponding bounce could occur. Buy above 0.7731. Stop loss at 0.7633.

The trade review for February 23 by simplified wave analysis Overview and Outlook for #USDX (US Dollar Index) As shown in the graph of the American currency index, the formation of an extended downward plane continued during the last three years. Since the beginning of last year, the final part of the wave model started. The structure of the entire wave does not show completeness. The strong level of support reached by the quotes triggered the formation of a corrective zone, in the form of a flat. The expected growth potential is limited by the determined resistance zone. Today, the completion of the bearish retracement that began yesterday is expected. The lower zone is the support level. A short-term gap of the lower boundary is not excluded. A reversal through the upward movement can be expected in the afternoon. Boundaries of resistance zones: - 90.50 / 60 Boundaries of support zones: - 89.70 / 60 ![]() Review and Forecast for NZD / USD The last wave of the daily chart of the major currency "Kiwi" dollar in September 2016 brought the pair's price into the zone of a strong resistance line. Over the next year and a half, the price formed a correction in a wide flat corridor. As of now, the correctional structure has been completely completed and its entire parts have been formed. For today, the last and incomplete ascending part have a reversal potential. The first part of the wave (A) is complete. Since January 24, a flat correction zigzag (B) began to form. Due to the impulsive nature of the bullish wave that has started, we can expect a minimum possible reduction. During the next trading sessions, the following events are expected such as the completion of the downward rollback, the reversal formation and the beginning of the ascending phase of the pair's movement. Boundaries of resistance zones: - 0.7250 / 80 Boundaries of support zones: - 0.7270 / 40 ![]() Explanations to the figures: For simplified wave analysis, the simplest type of wave is used in the form of a zigzag, combining 3 parts (A; B; C). Of these waves, all kinds of correction are composed and most of the impulses. At each time frame, the last, incomplete wave is analyzed. The areas marked on the graphs are indicated by the calculation areas, where the probability of a change in the direction of motion is significantly increased. Arrows indicate the wave counting according to the technique used by the author. The solid background of the arrows indicates the structure formed, the dotted one indicates the expected wave motion. Attention: The wave algorithm does not take into account the duration of the tool movements in time. The forecast is not a trading signal! To conduct a trade transaction, you need to confirm the signals of your trading systems. * The presented market analysis is informative and does not constitute a guide to the transaction.

Technical analysis of EUR/USD for February 26, 2018 ![]() Overview: The trend of the EUR/USD pair movement was controversial as it took place in a narrow sideways channel, the market showed signs of instability. Amid the previous events, the price is still moving between the levels of 1.2259 and 1.2373. Also, the daily resistance and support are seen at the levels of 1.2408 and 1.2442, respectively. Therefore, it is recommended to be cautious while placing orders in this area. So, we need to wait until the sideways channel has completed. Last week, the market moved from its bottom at 1.2260 and continued to rise towards the top of 1.2352. Today, in the one-hour chart, the current rise will remain within a framework of correction. However, if the pair fails to pass through the level of 1.2404, the market will indicate a bearish opportunity below the strong resistance level of 1.2404. Since there is nothing new in this market, it is not bullish yet. Sell deals are recommended below the level of 1.2404 with the first target at 1.2295. If the trend breaks the support level of 1.2295, the pair is likely to move downwards continuing the development of a bearish trend to the level 1.2260 in order to test the double bottom again.

Technical analysis of GBP/JPY for February 28, 2018 ![]() GBP/JPY is under pressure. The pair is clearly turning down, and is also under pressure below its horizontal level at 149.60. A bearish cross has been identified between the 20-period and 50-period moving averages, which should confirm a negative outlook. In which case, as long as the resistance at 149.60 is not surpassed, the risk of the break below 148.50 remains high. Alternatively, if the price moves in the direction opposite to the forecast, a long position is recommended to be above 149.60 with the target at 150.00. Strategy: SELL, Stop loss at 149.60, Take profit at 148.50 Chart Explanation: The black line shows the pivot point. The price above the pivot point indicates long positions; and when it is below the pivot point, it indicates short positions. The red lines show the support levels, and the green line indicates the resistance levels. These levels can be used to enter and exit trades. Resistance levels: 150.00, 150.50, and 151.00 Support levels: 148.50, 147.95, and 147.50 Read more: https://www.instaforex.com/forex_analysis/110766 |

JPY has been quite positive with the recent economic reports like significant decrease in Unemployment Rate from 2.8% to 2.4%, which made the currency to gain significant momentum along the way against USD.

As of the current scenario, this week the market is expected to be quite volatile whereas a number of high impact economic reports on the both sides are expected to inject uncertainty for the time being. To sum up, ahead of the upcoming economic reports, USD is expected to gain and sustain the bullish momentum in the pair if the economic reports are published better than expected by Friday daily close.

Gold was trapped The news about the resignation of the chief economic adviser to the president Gary Cohn allowed gold to mark its best daily level since Valentine's Day. If an ardent opponent of protectionism, an ex-candidate for the presidency of the Fed, withdraws from his post, a potential global trade war is unlikely to be avoided. And in it, all weapons will look good. Including - large-scale selling of US Treasury bonds by the main holders in the face of China and Japan. I believe other countries will do the same. Their desire to get rid of the power of the dollar will force them to shift to gold. Thus, trade wars are potentially capable of providing the precious metal with invaluable support. Until March, investors' demand for ETF products was characterized by mixed dynamics. The fall in the XAU/USD and the increase in gold volatility contributed to an outflow of 5.1 tonnes in February. The biggest losses were suffered by European (-7.3 tons) and North American stock-exchange specialized funds (-5.1 tons), while Asians, on the contrary, replenished their reserves (+7.9 tons). As a result, according to the latest figure, it has increased by 10% since the beginning of the year. Monthly dynamics of demand for ETF products ![]() Source: WGC. Annual dynamics of demand for ETF products ![]() Source: WGC. In my opinion, the value of the investment demand for precious metals was influenced by the strengthening of the US dollar. The fastest growth in the weekly wage in January over the past few years has strengthened the risks of overclocking inflation and the aggressive monetary tightening of the Fed. Moreover, the new head of the Federal Reserve was optimistic about the US economy and the way of betting on federal funds. The President of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, William Dudley, indicated four hikes in 2018 - a gradual normalization of monetary policy. As a result, the futures market increased the chances of such an outcome to 34%, and gold plunged into a wave of selling. Everyone remembers perfectly how uncomfortable it felt at the eve of the historic FOMC meetings in 2017. Nevertheless, the growing likelihood of the implementation of the policy of anti-globalization, Donald Trump, significantly tempered investors' appetite for risk. If the stock indexes behaved rather restrained in response to the high-sounding statements of the US president on tariffs on the import of steel and aluminum, the resignation of Gary Cohn convinced that the matter should be taken very seriously. In the medium term, gold can be trapped in consolidation: on the one hand, news about the trade war will provide support to the bulls on the XAU/USD; on the other hand, the return of the divergence idea in the monetary policy of the Federal Reserve and the central banks-peers can become a saving straw for the US dollar. In my opinion, in the second and third quarters, against the background of the return of the normalization theme, its strength will run out, so the price will drop to the lower border of the trading range of $1300-1360 per ounce, which makes sense to use for purchases. Technically, if the bulls manage to return gold quotes to the limits of the upward medium-term trading channel, then the risks of implementing the target values by 113% and by 127.2% according to the Shark and AB = CD patterns will increase.

Daily analysis of USD/JPY for March 9, 2018 USD/JPY There is a growing challenge to the recent bearish bias on the market. Since the demand level at 105.50 was tested, the market has gained 130 pips. Price is now above the demand level at 106.50, going towards the supply level at 107.00. There is a possibility of a change in the market bias when price goes further northwards. ![]() The long-term bias is bearish. The EMA 11 is below the EMA 56, and the RSI period 14 is slightly below the level 50. There is currently a Bearish Confirmation Pattern on the 4-hour chart, but that will be overturned once the supply level at 107.50 is breached to the upside.
