AUD/USD: AUD is correcting 10.02.2020

Good afternoon, dear forum visitors!

NPBFX offers the latest release of analytics on AUD/USD for a better understanding of the current market situation and more efficient trading.

Current trend

AUD is growing against USD during today’s Asian session, retreating from new record lows since 2009, updated at the end of last week. The instrument adds about 0.35%, testing 0.6700 for a breakout. In addition to a number of technical factors, macroeconomic statistics from China provide strong support for AUD. Last Friday, the Chinese economy showed a sharp increase in exports (9.1% YoY), and today it supports consumer sentiment with consumer inflation statistics. In January, Consumer Price Index rose by 1.4% MoM and by 5.4% YoY, which was significantly better than market expectations of 0.8% MoM and 4.9% YoY. Today, interesting statistics from Australia are not expected, but on Tuesday there will be data on the dynamics of Australia’s Home Loans for December.

Support and resistance

Bollinger Bands in D1 chart demonstrate a stable decrease. The price range is narrowing from below, reflecting the emergence of ambiguous trading dynamics in the short term. MACD is reversing upwards preserving a sell signal (located below the signal line). Stochastic almost ignores the appearance of the correctional growth of AUD during today’s Asian session. The indicator still maintains a confident downtrend, indicating the preservation of the “bearish” momentum in the ultra-short term.

To open new trading positions, it is necessary to wait for the signals from technical indicators to be clarified.

Resistance levels: 0.6700, 0.6723, 0.6746, 0.6776.

Support levels: 0.6677, 0.6650, 0.6620, 0.6600.

Trading tips

To open long positions, one can rely on the breakout of 0.6700 or 0.6723. Take profit – 0.6776 or 0.6800. Stop loss – 0.6677 or 0.6660.

The rebound from 0.6700 as from resistance with the subsequent breakdown of 0.6677 or 0.6660 can become a signal for new sales with target at 0.6620 or 0.6600. Stop loss – 0.6700 or 0.6715.

Implementation time: 2-3 days.

Brent Crude Oil: oil prices recover 12.02.2020

Good afternoon, dear forum visitors!

NPBFX offers the latest release of analytics on Brent Crude Oil for a better understanding of the current market situation and more efficient trading.

Current trend

Today, during the Asian session, oil prices are growing moderately, continuing to develop the “bullish” momentum formed yesterday. The quotes were able to deviate from the year’s lows amid some improvement in the situation with the spread of coronavirus. Optimism regarding the epidemic was also supported by the chief medical adviser to the PRC government, who suggested that the peak of the virus would occur in February, after which it would be possible to count on a gradual weakening of the epidemic.

In turn, a report published on Tuesday by the American Petroleum Institute prevented a more confident growth of the instrument. In the week of February 7, oil reserves grew by 6 million barrels after rising by 4.18 million barrels over the past period. Today, the official report on oil reserves from the US Department of Energy will be released.

Support and resistance

On the daily chart, Bollinger bands are steadily declining. The price range is narrowing, reflecting the emergence of upward dynamics in the ultra-short term. The MACD indicator is growing, maintaining a poor buy signal (the histogram is above the signal line). Stochastic demonstrates similar dynamics, retreating from its lows, signaling that the instrument is oversold in the ultra-short term.

The developing a full-fledged uptrend is possible in the short and/or ultra-short term.

Resistance levels: 56.00, 57.06, 59.00, 60.00.

Support levels: 54.20, 53.46, 52.00.

USD/JPY: the pair is trading in the flat 14.02.2020

Good afternoon, dear forum visitors!

NPBFX offers the latest release of analytics on USD/JPY for a better understanding of the current market situation and more efficient trading.

Current trend

USD shows near-zero dynamics against JPY during today’s Asian session, consolidating near 109.80. Demand for USD and JPY again rose significantly after the publication of updated statistics on the number of patients with coronavirus, which frightened investors with a sharp surge in the number of infected. It is curious that macroeconomic statistics from the USA practically did not support USD. At the same time, the Consumer Price Index in January accelerated from 2.3% YoY to 2.5% YoY, which turned out to be better than market expectations. Consumer Price Index Excluding Food and Energy in January rose by 0.2% MoM and 2.3% YoY, which also turned out to be slightly better than forecasts of 0.2% MoM and 2.2% YoY.

Support and resistance

Bollinger Bands on D1 chart show moderate growth. The price range expands slightly, freeing a path to new local highs for the "bulls". MACD reversed downwards having formed a weak sell signal (located below the signal line). Stochastic decreases more confidently, which, however, weakly correlates with the real trend in the market.

Technical indicators do not contradict the further development of the correctional decline in the short and/or ultra-short term.

Resistance levels: 110.00, 110.20, 110.40.

Support levels: 109.75, 109.52, 109.25, 109.00.

Trading tips

To open long positions, one can rely on the breakout of 110.00. Take profit – 110.40 or 110.50. Stop-loss – 109.75.

A breakdown of 109.75 or 109.60 may be a signal for new sales with target at 109.25 or 109.10. Stop loss should be placed no further than 110.00.

Implementation time: 2-3 days.

Good afternoon, dear forum visitors!

NPBFX offers the latest release of analytics on EUR/USD for a better understanding of the current market situation and more efficient trading.

Current trend

EUR has shown ambiguous growth against USD today, updating monthly highs at the opening. The growth of the instrument was slightly corrected and EUR retreated from its highs to 1.1050, maintaining “bullish” sentiment.

Consumer inflation data also supported EUR. German Consumer Price Index in February showed an increase of 0.4% MoM and 1.7% YoY, which was slightly better than expectations of 0.3% MoM and 1.7% YoY. Harmonized Price Index for the same period accelerated from 1.6% YoY to 1.7% YoY, exceeding forecasts.
