Price Signal Summary - EURUSD Doji Candle And USDJPY Gains Stall At The 50-Day EMA

OUTLOOK
  • In FX,EURUSD traded lower Tuesday and the pair has tested support at the 50-day EMA - at 1.0669. This represents a key short-term level and the recent move down is considered corrective. Yesterday’s activity highlights a doji candle pattern - a potential bullish reversal signal. A recovery would refocus attention on 1.1033, the Feb 2 high. A clear break of the 50-day EMA would instead strengthen the recent bearish cycle and open 1.0634, the Jan 9 low.
  • GBPUSD yesterday traded through 1.2000. The move lower reinforces the current short-term bearish theme. Sights are on the 200-dma next, at 1.1952. A move through this level would expose key support at 1.1842, the Jan 6 low. A breach of the latter would highlight a potential trend reversal and a possible double top. Firm resistance is 1.2265, Friday’s high.
  • USDJPY has pulled back from its recent highs. The pair has failed to clear a key resistance we have highlighted - at 132.87 today - the 50-day EMA. A clear break of this average is required to suggest scope for an extension higher that would expose 134.77, the Jan 6 high The broader trend direction remains down.
