Daily analysis of GBP/USD for October 13, 2015

On the daily chart, we should note the Monday session was a slow one because of the holidays in most of European countries and the US. GBP/USD has been trading below the resistance zone of 1.5381. Watch for a breakout higher during this week, in order to test the next interest level around 1.5439.

The pair continues to perform pullbacks after the opening bell and this should be an indicator of possible corrections, which could be extended towards the support level of 1.5285 where the 200 SMA is located. Over that zone, we can expect a rebound because of a bullish reaction.

Daily chart's resistance levels: 1.5381 / 1.5439
Daily chart's support levels: 1.5325 / 1.5256
H1 chart's resistance levels: 1.5342 / 1.5400
H1 chart's support levels: 1.5282 / 1.5223

Trading recommendations for today:
Based on the H1 chart, place buy (long) orders only if the GBP/USD pair breaks a bullish candlestick; the resistance level is seen at 1.5342, take profit is at 1.5400, and stop loss is at 1.5285.

Elliott wave analysis of EUR/JPY for October 14, 2015

Technical summary:
We continue to watch for a continuation higher towards 141.00 over coming days/weeks. In the short term, we would like to find support at 135.63 to protect the downside for a break above minor resistance at 136.60 and more importantly above resistance at 136.95 for a continuation higher towards 138.10 as the ideal target for red wave iii. After a minor sideways consolidation, more upside room towards 141.00 would be expected. Only a breakout below 135.63 would question the upside expectations, but it will take a break below 134.62 to invalidate the bullish outlook.

Trading recommendation: We are long EUR from 135.10 with stop placed at 135.30. If you are not long EUR yet, buy near 136.00 or upon a break above 136.60, using the same stop at 135.30.

Daily analysis of USDX for October 16, 2015

On the daily chart, the USDX is currently trying to stay above the 200 SMA, because a decline is no longer strong on a short-term basis. However, this scenario could change when the index manages to form a lower low pattern to reach new lows. A rebound at the current stage could send the USDX to the resistance level of 95.26.

The index is recovering from the losses on an intraday basis and now is facing the resistance level of 94.61. In case of a breakout, the USDX is likely to move towards 94.98, where the 200 SMA is located. At the current stage, we can expect a pullback, which should not extend more than above the range zone of 94.73.

Daily chart's resistance levels: 94.36 / 95.26
Daily chart's support levels: 93.16 / 92.33
H1 chart's resistance levels: 94.61 / 94.98
H1 chart's support levels: 94.15 / 93.73

Consequently, the market will call for a bullish trend, if the price holds above the level of 1.1009. Accordingly, if the trend fails to close below the daily pivot point, it will be a good opportunity to buy above the level of 1.1015 with the first target at 1.1080, then it is expected to continue moving in an uptrend towards 1.1133 in order to test the daily resistance 1.

The endeavors by Asahi Group Holdings Ltd. and Nedbank Group Ltd. reflected a growing trend by firms around the globe to bolster efforts to protect the environment. The CDP report added nine in 10 companies implement measures to cut greenhouse gases, up from less than half in 2010. We must act swiftly and boldly to contend with climate change, meaning change the way we manage business, holding ourselves responsible, and creating innovative solutions that drive a low-carbon economy,” said Hewlett Packard Enterprise Co.

Daily analysis of GBP/JPY for November 19, 2015

Overview:
A sharp rise in GBP/JPY and a breakout of resistance at 188.28 invalidated our bearish view. Rebound from 180.36 is resuming and intraday bias is back on the upside. A further rally towards resistance at 195.86 would be seen again. In case of retreat, we will stay cautiously bullish as long as support at 185.98 holds. The breach of the medium-term trend-line support is taken as a sign of trend reversal. This is supported by bearish divergence condition in the weekly MACD. Also, GBP/JPY was close to key cluster resistance of 61.8% retracement of 251.09 to 116.83 at 199.80, which is close to the psychological level of 200. A breakout of 174.86 will confirm trend reversal and bring a deeper fall to 38.2% retracement of 116.83 to 195.86 at 165.67. In case of another rise, we will be cautious on strong resistance from 199.80/200.00, which can finally bring reversal.
