22nd July 2022 Friday: Technical Outlook and Review

DXY:


On the H4, with prices moving below the ichimoku indicator, we have a bearish bias that prices will drop to the 1st support at 105.642 in line with overlap support, 61.8% fibonacci projection and 61.8% fibonacci retracement. Take note of intermediate support at 106.410 where the swing low support is. Once there is downside confirmation of price breaking 1st support structure, we would expect bearish momentum to carry price to 2nd support at 103.475 in line with swing low support. Alternatively, price could rise to 1st resistance at 107.514 where the pullback resistance and 38.2% fibonacci retracement are.

Areas of consideration:

  • H4 time frame, 1st resistance at 107.514
  • H4 time frame, 1st support at 105.642

XAU/USD (GOLD):

Alternatively, price could break 1st resistance and rise to 2nd resistance at 1785.79 where the 50% fibonacci retracement and pullback resistance are. Take note of wedge formation.

Alternatively, price could drop to the 1st support at 1.19320 where the pullback support is.
