EURUSD Technicals for 23-24 july 2009
Thursday, July 23rd, 2009EURUSD
On the monthly chart, the EURO is just above a monthly 23.6% Fibonacci level. A close above 1.42 at the end of the month might keep the EURO rising higher, towards 1.47. The Weekly chart displays a trendline resistance and a supply area at 1.4330 – 1.4360. A break above that would be a confirmation that the uptrend will continue towards 1.47, but I personally favour a fade back down.
On the medium term, we have a daily TL (trendline) resistance in confluence with 1.4331 resistance level, which should provide a nice fade when it gets there. A break under 1.4155 (23.6% daily Fib level) would be a confirmation that the pair will trade lower towards 1.3800 (the bottom of a big daily range).
The 4 hour chart looks quite choppy, showing that bulls are losing strength and there is a lot of indecision in the market. A break below 1.4200 H4 23.6% Fib level and TL support will give confirmation that the bears are in control.
In the 1 hour chart, we’re still trending up, but we’re now inside a nice ranging channel. Price could not stay above the range and it continues to get sucked in, giving signals of reversal. A break below 1.4180 could be a good signal to short the market. 1.4145 is also a critical level though and that will be our final confirmation that the market is reversing and I would go short with tight stops until 1.4145 gets broken.
Overall, I am bearish on EURUSD in the following days and the following week, considering the pair is highly overbought and has made significant rallies. A correction is certainly due. As a trader, though, you need to be prepared for any possibility, so with a break above 1.4250 and if the price starts using it as support, I would go long.
