The Market Today

The Markets Today Wednesday 16 July 2008 / 10:15h CET

EUR/USD

1.5930


EXPECTATION

THE RISK

SUPPORT AND RESISTANCE

A new high has been made in euro before Bernanke boosted the Dollar with a hawkish speech. Strong support 1.59 amy however stop the Euro slide and it can retry the 1.6030 top and continue to move up.

An hourly close underneath of 1.5890 is bearish for a drop to 1.5760, medium-term trend-line. A daily close lower is bearish for the week.

1.5895 STRONG

1.5950 MINOR

1.5845 MINOR

1.6000 MINOR

1.5760 TREND

1.6030 STRONG


GBP/USD

2.0060


EXPECTATION

THE RISK

SUPPORT AND RESISTANCE

Traded up to the strong resistance area above 2.0130, since then 2.0020 is strong initial support, go long on dips, next target 2.0360.

A breech at 2.0020 may see a quick dip to 1.9965 only, a hourly close beyond that is bearish for 1.9800

2.0020 TREND

2.0085 MINOR

1.9965 STRONG

2.0150 STRONG

1.9910 MINOR

2.0180 STRONG


USD/JPY

104.00


EXPECTATION

THE RISK

SUPPORT AND RESISTANCE

USDJPY fell and slightly overshot the 50% retracement of the March-June rise. Next key support is 102.85, but right here we like to try longs for a short-term pull-back to 104.65 or 105.10

An hourly break of 103.85 stops the short-term bullish view and we risk descending towards 102.80, medium-term buyers should wait for that level.

103.85 STRONG

104.30 STRONG

103.35 MINOR

104.65 STRONG

102.85 KEY

105.20 KEY


USD/CHF

1.0070


EXPECTATION

THE RISK

SUPPORT AND RESISTANCE

It has achieved the 1.00 target faster than expected. It is critical to hold above this level in order to keep the Dollar in range 1.00/1.05. For now short-term bearish trend at 1.0090, go long on its break.

A fall through 1.00 has room for 0.9860 in the short-term and should eventually lead to a new low near 0.95.

1.0040 MINOR

1.0090 TREND

1.0000 KEY

1.0150 MINOR

0.9965 STRONG

1.0220 STRONG


XAU/USD

974.00


EXPECTATION

THE RISK

SUPPORT AND RESISTANCE

988 was reached before Gold fell on falling crude oil prices. Overbought, there is room to fall, 965 initial target, possibility to fall as far as 935 in volatile markets.

Stops shorts upon breaking 985, next push up should yield 995 and could even reach 1030.

965 STRONG

985 STRONG

953 STRONG

997 STRONG

935 KEY

1030 KEY
