Featured Technical Report

GBP/USD Mid-Day Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 1.6009; (P) 1.6047; (R1) 1.6118; More.

GBP/USD's recovery from 1.5976 extends further today and reaches 1.6120 so far. As noted before, with 1.5962 cluster support (38.2% retracement of 1.5343 to 1.6343 at 1.5961) intact, there is no confirmation of reversal yet. Further rise could be seen towards 1.6434 high. Though, break there is needed to confirm rally resumption or we'll stay neutral and expect more consolidations. On the downside, break of 1.5962 cluster support will confirm that whole rise form 1.5343 is finished and deeper decline should be seen to trend line support (now at 1.5731). Also, note that sustained trading below the mentioned trend line will indicate that whole rally from 1.4230 is completed and should bring deeper decline through 1.5343 support.

Forex Trade Ideas

Trade Idea Update: GBP/USD – Buy at 1.6045

Cable's breach of intra-day resistance at 1.6100 adds credence to our view that low has been formed at 1.5977 last week and further consolidation above this level would take place with mild upside bias for retracement of last week's selloff to the Ichimoku cloud top (now at 1.6135) but reckon upside would be limited to 1.6160 (50% Fibonacci retracement of 1.6342 to 1.5977) and price should falter well below resistance at 1.6244.

Trade Idea: EUR/JPY – Sell again at 115.00

The single currency dropped last Friday in line with our expectation and our short position entered at 115.00 met target at 113.50 (with 150 points profit), price then tumbled to as low as 112.49 this morning, however, as euro then staged a strong rebound from there, suggesting further consolidation would take place and recovery to 115.00 cannot be ruled out but 115.27 should cap upside, bring another decline later.
