OUTLOOK: Price Signal Summary - EURUSD Resistance Is At The 50-Day EMA

OUTLOOK
  • In FX, EURUSD has pulled back from its recent highs but for now, remains in a short-term bull cycle - a correction. The pair has pierced the 50-day EMA, at 1.0459. A clear break of the average would strengthen short-term bullish conditions and signal scope for a continuation higher near-term. Sights are on 1.0574, 38.2% of the Sep 25 - Jan 13 bear leg. Initial support to watch is 1.0392, the 20-day EMA. A move through the EMA would signal a possible reversal.
  • A bull cycle in GBPUSD remains in play and the pair is trading closer to its recent highs. The 20-day EMA has been breached and attention is on the 50-day EMA, at 1.2517 and an important resistance. Clearance of the average would highlight a stronger bull cycle. Medium-term trend signals are unchanged, they remain bearish. A reversal lower would refocus attention on 1.2100, the Jan 10 low and bear trigger. First support to watch is 1.2392, the 20-day EMA.
  • USDJPY is trading closer to its recent lows. The primary trend condition remains bullish, however, Monday’s move down highlights a stronger bear threat. The pair has breached the 50-day EMA and a trendline drawn from the Sep 16 ‘24 low. A resumption of weakness would open 152.55, 61.8% of the Dec 3 - Jan 10 bull leg. Initial firm resistance is at 156.75, the Jan 23 high. Clearance of this level would be a bullish development.
