More Downside Ahead For The Euro

Quote of the day:“The world tolerates conceit from those who are successful, but not from anybody else.” ~ John Blake

Good morning. The ugly gets uglier for the euro as it just reached a 10-year low against the Japanese yen at 100.75 and extended its decline against the dollar to a fresh multi-month low at 1.3165 before pulling back to intraday highs around 1.3220 while writing this. Short-term resistance starts around this week’s opening level at 1.3350 and is followed by 1.3430/50 and 1.3530/50 – as seen below:

EURUSD

Looks very bearish as long as it trades below 1.3350. However, it would remain bearish even in case of a rally to 1.3530, so don’t expect any miracles: rallies, breakdowns = new selling opportunities.

102.00/50 is where to expect the sellers to re-enter the game

The short setup signaled by the reversal pin bar, as noted in my post yesterday, looks good so far. I think there’s more downside to be seen, retesting recent bottom support.  (more…)

Euro Getting Closer to Next Level Down: 1.30

Quote of the day:“Always listen to experts. They’ll tell you what can’t be done and why. Then do it.” ~ Robert Heinlein

Good morning. The euro opened lower this week as Greece acknowledged it would miss the deficit targets agreed as part of July’s bailout package. European finance ministers are meeting today to discuss bailout measures.

EURUSD

Daily, weekly, 4-hrs charts – all look so bad that the only reason to look at them is to identify new levels where to set selling orders.

The Sell-Off Continues

Quote of the day: “There art two cardinal sins from which all others spring: Impatience and Laziness.” ~ Franz Kafka

Good morning. The dollar holds gains as the euro is retreating after yesterday’s short-lived attempt to reach the $1.37 zone. The resistance around 1.3700 highlighted in my yesterday’s post is intact and as long as the euro holds below, selling on signs of weakness is probably the best thing to do. Let’s check the dollar index chart before continuing with the EUR and others

USD Index

There’s a horizontal support line around 77.50 right now where the dollar found a temporary resistance some days ago. Well, if sellers manage to breach through the said line – selling on the break lower could be worth it. Meanwhile, upside remains favored as the dollar is strengthening across the board

As seen below, the 50% retracement value which provided support on last downside attempt is currently under heavy pressure.

Euro Recovering Ahead of German Vote; Markets Under Pressure After Another Sell-Off

Quote of the day: “Nothing great was ever created by waiting around for someone to tell you it’s all going to be okay or for perfect information to drop from the sky” ~ Jonathan Fields

Good morning. The markets pulled back yesterday in risk-off trade but the euro is currently recovering ahead of German lawmakers vote on changes to the European bailout fund. Some of recent reversal patterns  highlighted two days ago are still in play although momentum has lost traction after yesterday’s sell-off. All eyes are on euro these days, especially due to German vote. Other important events of today’s economic calendar are the Initial Jobless Claims and the GDP later today in the US.

EURUSD

Still looking for direction as both support and resistance hold. Upside is slightly favored at time of writing, therefore keep an eye on resistance around 1.37

GBPUSD

Similar story here as cable is retesting resistance after pulling back in recent trading sessions. A plan to consider is to look for buying opportunities on rallies above 1.5670/00 where first resistance resides.
