Foreign Exchange Price & Time at a Glance:

Price & Time Analysis: EUR/USD

ChartPrepared by Kristian Kerr

  • EUR/USD failed again yesterday near the 50-day moving average
  • Our near-term trend bias is lower in the euro while below 1.1170
  • Last week’s low near 1.0920 remains a near-term pivot ahead of the critical June low at 1.0820
  • A minor turn window is eyed here
  • A close back over 1.1170 would turn us positive on EUR/USD

EUR/USD Strategy: Like the short side while below 1.1170.

Price & Time Analysis: NZD/USD

ChartPrepared by Kristian Kerr

  • NZD/USD continues to consolidate above .6600
  • Our near-term trend bias is lower in the kiwi while below .6850
  • The June 2010 low around .6560 is the next downside attraction for the exchange rate
  • A minor Fibonacci turn window is eyed here
  • A daily close back over .6850 would turn us positive again on NZD/USD

NZD/USD Strategy: Like only a reduced short position while below .6850.

Focus Chart of the Day: USDOLLAR

The FXCM US DOLLAR Index (equally weighted basket of USD vs EUR, GBP, JPY & AUD) continues to lack much direction in a medium-term context, but there is some evidence that this could be changing. Over the past week or so the index has triggered an inverse head & shoulders pattern (best seen on the 4-hour chart) and broken above the trendline connecting the April/June highs just under 12,000. Momentum has since fallen off a bit, but attention remains on the June high and the 78.6% retracement of the April/May range near 12,050 as traction above there would likely signal the start of a more important push to the upside in the index. Weakness back under 11,920 would undermine these recent near-term positive technical developments.
