Weekly Trading Forecasts on Major Pairs (January 11 - 15, 2016)

Here’s the market outlook for the week:

EURUSD

Dominant bias: Bearish  

From Monday till Wednesday, this pair went south. However, it started a bullish journey from Thursday till the close of the market on Friday. Bulls would continue making attempts to push the price further north, but their action would not jeopardize the extant bearish outlook unless price goes above the resistance lines at 1.0000 and 1.0050. A close below the support line at 1.0800 would reinforce the extant bearish outlook.    

USDCHF

Dominant bias: Bullish

USD/CHF went upwards from Monday till Wednesday, testing the resistance level at 1.0100. In spite of desperate effort, price was unable to break the resistance level to the upside. As a result of its inability to break the resistance level to the upside, price pulled back by at least 150 pips. There is a risk of further pullback, especially before the end of this week or early next week. The probability of CHF becoming very strong is possible this month, and therefore, we may see this effect on USDCHF (plus other CHF pairs). It cannot be said precisely how long the effect would last if it does happen. This is simply a seasonal tendency on CHF pairs, which have been happening for many years; only that the event of last January was unprecedented.  

GBPUSD

Dominant bias: Bearish   

Cable came down by 250 pips last week. Since December 14, 2015, price has come down 700 pips. There is a clean Bearish Confirmation Pattern in the market, and there is a high probability that the bearish movement would continue. The accumulation territories at 1.4000 and 1.3950 could be tested this week. Any rallies we see here would be transient; as the outlook on GBP pairs remain bearish for this week.

USDJPY

Dominant bias: Bearish    

This is a bear market, which started a few weeks ago. Price went down 250 pips last week (and it has come down by 500 pips from the middle of December 2015).  There is a lot of trading activity around the demand level at 117.50, which stands a good chance of being breached to the downside. Additional targets for this week are the demand levels at 117.00 and 116.50.      

                                                                                                                               

EURJPY

Dominant bias: Bearish

The EURJPY cross plunged by 350 pips last week, reaching the demand zone at 127.00. From that demand zone, price bounced upwards in the context of a downtrend, testing the supply level at 129.00. This is merely a bullish effort in the context of a downtrend, for the cross cannot go upwards significantly as long as the Yen has lots of stamina in it. Price could retest the demand zones at 127.50 and 127.00.
