Price Signal Summary - Bear Threat In GBPUSD Remains Present

OUTLOOK
  • In FX, EURUSD has pulled back from its recent highs. The pair has pierced resistance around the 50-day EMA - at 1.0835. A clear break of this average would signal a stronger reversal. Last week’s 1.0888 high (Feb 22) is also seen as a key resistance. Clearance of it would open 1.0932, the Jan 24 high. Note that the price pattern on Feb 22 is a shooting star candle (inverted hammer) and a possible reversal signal. A stronger move lower would instead expose 1.0695, Feb 14 low.
  • A broader bear threat in GBPUSD remains present and the recent climb appears to be a correction - for now. A stronger reversal lower would refocus attention on key support and the bear trigger at 1.2519, the Feb 5 low. Clearance of this level would open 1.2500, the Dec 13 low, and 1.2432, 50.0% of the Oct 4 - Dec 28 bull phase. For bulls initial resistance to watch is 1.2775, the Jan 25 high.
  • The USDJPY trend outlook is unchanged and conditions remain bullish. The pair is also trading closer to its recent highs. The latest pause appears to be a bull flag formation. A resumption of the trend would open 151.91/95, the Nov 13 ‘23 high and the Oct 1 ‘22 high and major resistance. On the downside, initial firm support lies at 149.41, the 20-day EMA.
