Discussion in 'Forex' started by nico3725, Feb 17, 2003.

  1. EUR/USD 1.0729. EUR failed to hold on to the gains made & turned down from 1.0860 itself instead of 1.0900 expected on Friday. Break of some short term supports has imparted some bearishness & EUR should grind lower to 1.0685/75 or 1.0665/55. Resistances are at 1.0765 & 1.0790.

    USD/CHF 1.3728. Short term upside thrust to 1.3775/85 or 1.3805/20 is expected. Supports are at 1.3670 & 1.3655/50.

    USD/JPY 120.53. The suggested fall of Dollar has stalled near 120.10 on Friday. Short term advances may test 120.80/90 while above 120.40/35. But as long as 120.95/121.15 area contains the upmove, cannot rule out one more decline to 119.95/85.

    GBP/USD 1.6069. Cable‘s bearishness continues unabated & is close to 1.6020, which is 61.8 % retracement level of rise from 1.5680 to 1.6570. Prefer to watch how Cable reacts near this level, though short term pictures hint at impending break of 1.6020 targeting 1.5985/75.

    EUR/CHF 1.4721. EUR finally broke out of recent range & now looks positive for a rise to 1.4745. Supports are at 1.4705 & 1.4675.

    EUR/JPY 129.32. Sell on rise to 129.60/75 with stop above 130.05 for fall to 128.85/70.

    EUR/GBP 0.6673. Went close to 0.6710 suggested on Friday. Break of 0.6650 is needed to ease the pressure on Pound.

    AUD/USD 0.5907. Short term declines may hold above 0.5890/80 for a rise to 0.5930/40.

    USD/CAD 1.5236. Dollar should find support above 1.5210/00 for rise to 1.5280/90.
     
  2. 1.0785. No change in view. Resistance near 1.0915/35 has so far managed to contain EUR's strength. It has now entered into correction, which is likely to continue for a while. Supports are at 1.0665, 1.0625 & 1.0560. Cannot rule out testing of any of these supports once more.

    USD/CHF.. 1.3610.No change in view. Dollar's corrective phase is expected to last for some time. Resistances are at 1.3705, 1.3775/80 & 1.3835/50.

    USD/JPY..120.40. Dollar is yet to pierce 121.50/80 levels convincingly. Break of this level will increase chances of thrust higher towards 122.25/45 or 122.75/80.

    GBP/USD..1.6145. Cable failed near 1.6570 itself instead of 1.6645/50. The current decline can find some support near 1.6075/45 levels. Resistances are at 1.6245 & 1.6320/50.Watch these points for future direction.

    Regards.
