The US Dollar has broken important volume-based support versus the Euro, Sterling, Australian Dollar, and Canadian Dollar. Here are levels we’re watching next.

EURUSD

Total Buy Volume Executed, Total Sell Volume Executed, Net Volume Executed (Buy-Sell)

Length of bar indicates the sum of Buy and Sell volume.

A substantive break higher in the Euro versus the US Dollar leaves the pair above important volume-based price resistance in the $1.0800-1.0900 range, and our volume data shows little in the way of a move towards clear resistance starting at $1.1400. Our bias remains to buy dips against resistance-turned-support near $1.09.

GBPUSD

Total Buy Volume Executed, Total Sell Volume Executed, Net Volume Executed (Buy-Sell)

Length of bar indicates the sum of Buy and Sell volume.

The British Pound has traded substantively above key volume-based resistance at $1.5150, and our volume data shows few levels of major interest until $1.5650. Our bias has turned firmly bullish GBP.

USDJPY

Total Buy Volume Executed, Total Sell Volume Executed, Net Volume Executed (Buy-Sell)

Length of bar indicates the sum of Buy and Sell volume.

Traders continue to keep the US Dollar above critical support in the ¥118-119.50 range—in direct contrast to the Dollar breakdown in other major pairs. Until this level gives way we’ll remain neutral USDJPY.

AUDUSD

Total Buy Volume Executed, Total Sell Volume Executed, Net Volume Executed (Buy-Sell)

Length of bar indicates the sum of Buy and Sell volume.

The Australian Dollar has broken above major volume-based congestion resistance at $0.7800, and our data shows the next level of interest is the $0.8100-0.8150 range. Our bias is bullish against $0.7800.

GBPJPY

Total Buy Volume Executed, Total Sell Volume Executed, Net Volume Executed (Buy-Sell)

Length of bar indicates the sum of Buy and Sell volume.

A significant rally in the Sterling versus the Yen leaves it at potentially significant congestion resistance near the ¥182 mark. There’s little in the way of further major resistance, while 182 now serves as support.

EURJPY

Total Buy Volume Executed, Total Sell Volume Executed, Net Volume Executed (Buy-Sell)

Length of bar indicates the sum of Buy and Sell volume.

Limited EUR/JPY activity near current price action offers no meaningful volume-based support or resistance.

USDCHF

Total Buy Volume Executed, Total Sell Volume Executed, Net Volume Executed (Buy-Sell)

Length of bar indicates the sum of Buy and Sell volume.

The US Dollar trades slightly below key support at SFr0.9600, and a sustained breakdown sets 0.9400 and eventually 0.8900 as the next important price floors.

USDCAD

Total Buy Volume Executed, Total Sell Volume Executed, Net Volume Executed (Buy-Sell)

Length of bar indicates the sum of Buy and Sell volume.

The US Dollar has sustained a break below key volume-based support at C$1.2350, and our bias remains firmly towards selling as long as price remains below said level.

NZDUSD

Total Buy Volume Executed, Total Sell Volume Executed, Net Volume Executed (Buy-Sell)

Length of bar indicates the sum of Buy and Sell volume.

The New Zealand Dollar trades above key volume resistance at $0.7550, and subsequent resistance is seen near $0.7700 extending through $0.7900.

AUDJPY

Total Buy Volume Executed, Total Sell Volume Executed, Net Volume Executed (Buy-Sell)

Length of bar indicates the sum of Buy and Sell volume.

The AUD/JPY trades at potentially significant volume-based resistance in the ¥93.50-95.50 range, and a sustained move above leaves little in the way of major resistance.

EURAUD

Total Buy Volume Executed, Total Sell Volume Executed, Net Volume Executed (Buy-Sell)

Length of bar indicates the sum of Buy and Sell volume.

The EUR/AUD trades just below important support at the A$1.3800 mark and sees little in the way of a larger breakdown. Previous support now acts as near-term resistance.

EURGBP

Total Buy Volume Executed, Total Sell Volume Executed, Net Volume Executed (Buy-Sell)

Length of bar indicates the sum of Buy and Sell volume.

The Euro/Sterling trades below meaningful price/volume congestion at £0.7250. A break lower shows little in the way of important price floors, while resistance extends through £0.7350.
