The US holiday Monday seems to have kept FX a bit quiet with just a bit of drift seen on many pairs. The US$ is a bit weaker which has helped to trigger two new small breakouts. One important point to note though is that the Aussie has punched up through a 4 1/2 year bear trend line so watch for any new hold above this level. Data today includes GBP CPI.
USDX weekly: lower to start the week and I’m watching for any Bear Flag follow-through:
EURX weekly: watching for any Bull Flag to get going here:
Trend line breakouts and TC signals:
NZD/USD 4hr: a small breakout but watch for any new make or break at the 0.73 S/R level:
USD/JPY 4hr: a small breakdown here:
Gold 4hr: still going at 180 pips:
EUR/USD 4hr: I’d suggested on the w/e this might target the monthly 200 EMA and that is where price is currently parked so watch this region for any new make or break:
GBP/USD 4hr: now at 250 pips. Watch for any impact from today’s GBP CPI data:
AUD/USD: this 4hr chart breakout is now at 120 pips BUT, more significantly, price action has broken up through a 4 1/2 year bear trend line and is resting just under the major 0.80 level. This is HUGE S/R zone for this pair as the monthly chart below reveals. This is the next zone to watch for any new make or break. US$ weakness and Commodity strength is the perfect storm here to help underpin bullish sentiment on the Aussie:
