Weekly USDJPY analysis

Posted: 04 Jan 2020 01:05 AM PST

USDJPY has broken down below the upward sloping wedge pattern we have noted in our previous posts. The bearish warning signs we mentioned have been confirmed and price has pulled back from 109.70 to 108.

Black lines - triangle broken

Blue lines -wedge pattern broken

If we zoom out and see where price reversed relative to the bigger picture something worrying for bulls arises. On a weekly basis we see price having broken the long-term triangle pattern. This was a major bearish signal. Price did not break below the 104.80 horizontal support and bounced. Price reached the broken triangle pattern from below but got rejected. Price formed a wedge pattern as we saw in previous posts and has now broken this pattern as well to the downside. This bounce towards the lower triangle boundary and rejection is a bearish sign. This increases the chances of a move back towards 104-105 specially as long as price is below 109.70. Key resistance remains at 109.70. I remain bearish as long as price is below that level.

Weekly EURUSD analysis

Posted: 04 Jan 2020 01:00 AM PST

EURUSD is in a bullish trend. Last week's low is very important for the continuation of the bullish trend. EURUSD has so far been making higher highs and higher lows. In order to reach our 1.1280 target we need to see price stay inside the bullish channel.

Red lines -bullish channel

Orange rectangle -major support

EURUSD is in a bullish trend. The orange rectangle area where the low of last week is found should hold if bulls want to continue to be in control of the trend. Staying inside the bullish channel is crucial. So bulls do not want to see price break below 1.1120-1.11. Resistance is at 1.12-1.1235 and breaking above it will open the way for a move towards 1.13. However it is possible that we have a sideways move this coming week before moving higher. The RSI has still not reached overbought levels and I believe there is still room to the upside for EURUSD.

Ichimoku cloud indicator short-term analysis of Bitcoin for January 4, 2020

Posted: 04 Jan 2020 12:56 AM PST

BTCUSD remains in a bearish trend. Price is below the Ichimoku cloud however we can observe bullish reversal signals in the RSI. If these signals are combined with a break above cloud resistance we could have the start of a trend reversal in BTCUSD.

As can be seen above in the Daily chart, the RSI price has not followed the price of BTCUSD to new lower lows. This is a bullish divergence. This is a warning to bears. However price remains below the Kumo (cloud) and bulls need to at least enter the cloud in order to change trend to neutral. Resistance by the cloud is at $7,480. Trend will change to bullish on a daily close above the Kumo at $8,370. The Chikou span is challenging resistance at current levels and both tenkan- and kijun-sen are below current price. In Ichimoku cloud terms things are a bit mixed but mostly bearish. Entering the cloud will be a big step towards trend reversal. So keep an eye on $8,370. If it breaks to the upside we could have a new upward move starting.The material has been provided by InstaForex Company - www.instaforex.com

Gold price creates condition for a move to $1,600

Posted: 04 Jan 2020 12:49 AM PST

Gold price gave us some warning reversal signs last week when it was trading around $1,530. However these warning signs never gave reversal sign as the bearish divergence was canceled by the strength of the move in price this last Friday. The strength of the move has indicated that more upside should be expected.

Blue lines - bearish channel corrective move

Red channel - new bullish move

Black line - expected path

Green line - RSI divergence (canceled)

As we explained in previous posts, the pull back in Gold price from August to September was just a pause to the bigger upward trend. This was a corrective phase. Now price is in a new bullish phase as the RSI suggests inside the red channel. This past week we warned bulls to be cautious in case the RSI got rejected once again at the green resistance line. However this was not the case as bulls were too strong and the RSI price broke above the green line giving new higher highs. This was a sign of strength. This does not mean that Gold can continue this parabolic run forever. Traders need to be cautious still. A pull back towards $1,515 is justified and could provide another opportunity to go long before reaching $1,600. Trend remains bullish as we have noted after recapturing $1,490-$1,500. This is not the time to bet against the trend but wait patiently for any pull back as a buying opportunity.
