Wednesday 27th October: Technical Outlook and Review

DXY:

On the H4 timeframe, prices are on a bullish momentum. Prices could potentially climb from our 1st support at 93.781 towards our 1st resistance at 94.147 in line with 100% Fibonacci extension and 61.8% Fibonacci retracement. Technical indicators are showing bullish momentum. Alternatively, breaking our 1st support can find prices dipping towards our 2nd support at 93.506 in line with 38.2% Fibonacci retracement.

Areas of consideration:

  • H4 time frame, 1st resistance at 94.147
  • H4 time frame, 1st support at 93.781

XAU/USD (GOLD):

On the H4 chart, prices are consolidating in a parallel channel and are currently retesting our bearish trendline and bottom of our bearish channel. We see a potential for prices to break the channel and also bearish trendline at our 1st support 1783.65 in line with 50% Fibonacci retracement and could potentially dip towards our 2nd support in line with 78.6% Fibonacci retracement at 1771.38. Bearish divergence is spotted in RSI.

Areas of consideration:

  • 4h 1st support at 1783.65
  • 4h 1st resistance at 1771.38

EUR/USD:

On the H4 chart , price has recently broken the ascending trendline and is looking for a retest at the first resistance level of 1.16224 which is also 38.2% retracement level and 61.8% projection level. If price were to fail the retest, price can potentially dip back to the first support level of 1.15758 which is also 61.8% Fibonacci retracement and graphical overlap support level. Our bearish bias is supported by the moving average indicator as price is trading under it

Areas of consideration

H4 first support level – 1.15758

H4 first resistance level – 1.16211

USD/CHF:

On the H4, price is seen to be reacting in a potential triangle. In reference to yesterday’s analysis, price was unable to break pass the small descending trendline resistance, hence we can expect price to drop further down to the 1st Support in line with 61.8% Fibonacci retracement.

Areas of consideration:

  • Watch 1st Support at 0.91531
  • Watch 1st Resistance at 0.92281

GBP/USD:

On the H4 chart, price is trading in an ascending channel and has recently bounced from the first support level of 1.37189 which is also Fibonacci retracement level 23.6%. Price can potentially rise to the first resistance level of 1.38485 which is also Fibonacci retracement 127.2% and 61.8% Fibonacci projection.The first resistance is also the daily resistance .  Our bullish bias is further supported by the Ichimoku cloud indicator as price is trading above it

Areas of consideration :

1st support – 1.37189

1st resistance – 1.38485

USD/JPY

On the H4 timeframe, price is still abiding to the ascending trendline support showing a bullish momentum continuation. Price is currently in between the 1st Support in line with 23.6% Fibonacci retracement and 1st Resistance in line with 78.6% Fibonacci retracement and 127.2% Fibonacci projection.  We should watch closely for these levels where prices might swing higher or lower.

Areas of consideration:

  • H4 1st resistance level 114.457
  • H4 1st support level 113.242

AUD/USD:

On the H4, we can see that price is reacting in between the 1st Resistance and 1st Support. Price is reacting in between 1st Resistance and 1st Support, price would have a further upside if it pushes pass intermediate resistance in line with 100% Fibonacci projection and 50% Fibonacci retracement price would have further upside to 1st resistance in line with graphical overlap resistance, 127.2 % Fibonacci retracement and 127.2% Fibonacci projection. Our current bias is neutral, waiting for price to swing higher or lower for a better entry.

Areas of consideration:

  • H4 1st resistance level 0.75676
  • H4 1st support level 0.74979

NZD/USD:

On the H4 timeframe, prices are on a bearish momentum. We see the potential for a pullback from our 1st resistance at 0.72189 which is a swing high and potentially dip towards our 1st support at 0.70913 which is a graphical overlap in line with 38.2% Fibonacci retracement. Technical indicators are showing bearish momentum. Alternatively, breaking our 1st support at 0.70913 might find prices dipping towards our 2nd support at 0.70488  in line with 50% Fibonacci retracement.

Areas of consideration:

  • H4 time frame, 1st resistance at 0.72189
  • H4 time frame, 1st support at 0.70913

USD/CAD:

On the H4, with stochastics approaching resistance, we are expecting to see price do a drop from 1st resistance at 1.24112 in line with the 127.2% Fibonacci extension, 78.6% Fibonacci projection and graphical swing high resistance to 1st support at 1.23699 in line with the 38.2% and 50% Fibonacci retracement and confluent to our graphical overlap support. Alternatively, price may break 1st resistance and head for 2nd resistance at 1.24399 in line with the 50% Fibonacci extension level and graphical overlap resistance.

Alternatively, price may break 1st support and head for 2nd support at 84.16 in line with the 100% Fibonacci projection level and graphical overlap support.

Alternatively, we may see price break 1st support and head for 2nd support at 35033 in line with the 50% Fibonacci retracement and graphical swing low.
