Technical Analysis – USDJPY unlocks 111.00 key level again; indicators signal neutral mode

Posted on April 11, 2019 at 6:43 am GMT

USDJPY is trading near the psychological level of 111.00 and is capped by the 40-day simple moving average (SMA). The sell-off in the preceding days drove the price well above the flat 200-day SMA indicating a possible bearish retracement in the short-term. The momentum indicators, the RSI and the MACD, are moving sideways near the 50 level and around the zero line respectively. Should the pair continue the bearish pressure and slip beneath the 20-day SMA, it could move towards the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement level of the upleg from 104.64 [..]

Technical Analysis – CHI50 stock index flies to new 1-year peak but enters overbought zone

Posted on April 10, 2019 at 9:17 am GMT

China’s 50 stock index experienced fresh buying interest after beating resistance around the 13,100 level, with the price spiking to a new one-year high of 13,917 early on Wednesday. While the RSI and the stochastics warn of an overbought market and the MACD suggests a softer trading in the short term as the indicator seems to be losing steam above its red signal line, the market needs to weaken back below 13,100 and the 20-day moving average for traders to resume cautious behavior. The [..]

Technical Analysis – EURCHF rises after rebound on 20-month bottom

Posted on April 10, 2019 at 8:27 am GMT

EURCHF continues to rise above the strong support level of the 20-month low of 1.1160, surpassing the 20-day simple moving average (SMA). According to the RSI, positive momentum could push for further gains in the short-term as the indicator picks up steam above 50. The stochastic is advancing in the overbought territory; negative corrections cannot be excluded. In the positive scenario, where the price continues to expand above yesterday’s high of 1.1280, the pair could move towards the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement [..]

Technical Analysis – EURJPY in a short downtrend; bulls wait above 126.77

Posted on April 10, 2019 at 8:11 am GMT

EURJPY is building a downtrend below 127.49 since the start of March, with the pair being set to register another lower high this week around 125.60. The technical picture suggests neutral conditions for short-term trading as the RSI and the MACD hover in neutral territory. Yet a close above 126.77 would question the short downtrend and boost bullish sentiment, shifting attention straight up to 127.53 and near to the 200-day moving average (MA). An aggressive rally above the latter could increase buying orders significantly, with resistance coming [..]

The RSI turned lower after entering the 50 level and it continues to head lower in support of a negative short-term picture.

Technical Analysis – General Electric stock shows recovery after a gap down

Posted on April 9, 2019 at 11:59 am GMT

General Electric stock opened with a gap down and within the oversold zone on Monday according to the RSI in the four-hour chart but the 200-period simple moving average (SMA) capped bearish action immediately. While the rebound in the RSI subdues chances for another negative turn, it is worth noting that the low on March 6 (9.02)has violated the previous trough of 9.51 and therefore the December uptrend. In coming sessions traders would be interested to see whether the breach [..]

Technical Analysis – USDCHF continues bullish action in short and long terms

Posted on April 9, 2019 at 11:45 am GMT

USDCHF is heading upwards after it posted a strong rebound on the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement level of the upleg from 0.9185 to 1.0130 around the 0.9900 psychological level. Technically, the red Tenkan-sen line is pointing north, indicating a bullish action, however, the RSI is moving near the neutral threshold of 50. Immediate resistance is coming from the 40-simple moving averages (SMA) currently around 1.0000, which is standing near the upper surface of the Ichimoku cloud. A jump above these lines could shift traders’ eyes at the 20-month [..]
