Euro / British Pound
Daily Bars
Prepared by Jamie Saettele
I maintain that the larger EURGBP trend is down towards 7600-7700 (October 2008 low and Fibonacci extension). The drop below the short term support line suggests that the larger downtrend may be ready to resume. 8420 is short term resistance. 8175 may provide short term support.
Euro / Canadian Dollar
Daily Bars
Focus remains on the 100% extension of the initial bull leg, which is at 13975. 14100 is former support and now potential resistance as well (as is the 200 day SMA at 14280). Short term support extends to 13175 but price ideally stays above the support line.

Euro / Australian Dollar
Daily Bars

Since the May low, the EURAUD has traded in a contracting range so it’s possible that a triangle is underway. It is also possible however that a bullish base (series of 1st and 2nd waves) is forming. With support at 14330 holding, I am looking higher.
Euro / Japanese Yen
240 Minute Bars
Prepared by Jamie Saettele
The long term EURJPY trend is down and the rally from 10730 does count as corrective although there is potential for additional strength towards the 100% extension of 10730-11341, at 11625. The decline from the top (11477) is not yet in 5 waves and 11220 support has held. Despite this, I am cautiously bearish.
British Pound / Japanese Yen
Daily Bars
Prepared by Jamie Saettele
I wrote last week that “20 day GBPJPY ATR is at its lowest level since January. Since the top above 251 in July 2007, ATR readings this low have coincided with important tops. A low ATR signals low volatility, which signals complacency. The GBPJPY is vulnerable at this level. Favor the downside against 13600 in anticipation of a drop below 12670.” I still maintain that the GBPJPY is vulnerable over the longer term but the break above 13600 exposes channel resistance as well as the 200 day SMA (near 14090).
Canadian Dollar / Japanese Yen
Daily Bars
Prepared by Jamie Saettele
The multi week CADJPY downside objective remains 7850 (100% extension and 2009 low). A move above 8650 cannot be ruled out. In such an event, the 200 day SMA could provide resistance near 8700.
Australian Dollar / Japanese Yen
Daily Bars
Prepared by Jamie Saettele
A break below the May low is expected eventually, with weakness likely extending to 6600 (100% extension). The 3 wave rally from 7190 leaves the AUDJPY vulnerable. Still, a complex correction could see 8090 slightly exceeded. The 100% extension at 8180 would be resistance.
