Technical Analysis – USDCAD builds base above 6-year low

Posted on June 4, 2021 at 6:01 am GMT

USDCAD is rising after the rebound off the six-year low of 1.2012, however, the bullish move is not strong enough yet to surpass the 1.2200 handle. The momentum indicators are showing some signals for a potential upside correction. The MACD jumped above its trigger line, remaining beneath its zero level, while the RSI is sloping north below the neutral threshold of 50. In trend indicators, the 20- and 40-day simple moving averages (SMAs) are still moving lower and the Ichimoku [..]

Technical Analysis – EURJPY upside risks intact despite recent tiptoeing

Posted on June 3, 2021 at 2:11 pm GMT

EURJPY seems to be lacking immediate positive drive to surpass the 134.00 hurdle despite multiple bounces off the 133.61 barrier. Although the pair’s broader uptrend is firm, something also being displayed in the climbing simple moving averages (SMAs), the static Ichimoku lines are reflecting a muted market mood after the propulsion on May 27, off the Ichimoku cloud’s upper surface. The short-term oscillators are suggesting bullish sentiment is currently dwindling. The MACD, in the positive region, is gliding beneath its [..]

Posted on June 3, 2021 at 1:10 pm GMT

A break on either side of this narrow range will reveal the next directional wave for the pair. The short-term oscillators are stuck near neutral levels, reflecting the absence of any volatility lately. The RSI is marginally above its 50 level, and while the [..]

Technical Analysis – USDCHF pushes for a rebound but key barriers weigh ahead

Posted on June 3, 2021 at 9:41 am GMT

USDCHF is craving for a close above the 20-day simple moving average (SMA) and more importantly beyond the 0.9027 resistance level, which has been capping bullish efforts for a couple of days now. The RSI and the MACD have yet to step into the bullish area but some progress is evident as the former seems to be making higher highs and higher lows towards its 50 neutral mark and the latter is deviating above its red signal line, raising the [..]

Technical Analysis – EURUSD loses steam in long-term bullish tendency

Posted on June 3, 2021 at 9:23 am GMT

EURUSD is retreating beneath its 4-hour period simple moving averages (SMAs) but it looks ready to find strong obstacle at the longer-term ascending trend line in the next sessions. The RSI indicator is falling after the bounce off the 50 level, while the MACD is remaining below its trigger line around its zero level, failing to strengthen the negative bias. If the pair penetrates the diagonal line to the downside, it could hit the 1.2160 support and the 1.2130 barrier, [..]

Posted on June 3, 2021 at 6:24 am GMT

AUDUSD has been moving within a horizontal trajectory over the last three months, remaining near the 20- and 40-day simple moving averages (SMAs). However, the 200-day SMA is still moving higher, approaching the current market price. The RSI, around the 50 neutral level, is heading south, while the MACD oscillator is failing to strengthen its movement, holding near the zero level in the short-term. Should prices decline further, an immediate level could be found around 0.7570, an area which has provided crucial [..]

Posted on June 2, 2021 at 12:04 pm GMT

GBPJPY is struggling to propel back towards the vicinity of the multi-year peak of 156.06, after a recent pullback in the price became trapped between the red Tenkan-sen line and the 50-period simple moving average (SMA). The bullish SMAs are defending price developments, which began from the 149.04 trough. That said, the horizontal Ichimoku lines are indicating that the pair has slid into a phase where directional sentiment has evaporated. Still, the price seems to have a tendency to improve. [..]
