USDCAD TECHS: Remains Above Support For Now

Sep-21 19:58
  • RES 4: 1.4019 38.2% retracement of the Feb 3 - Jun 16 bear leg 
  • RES 3: 1.3925 High Aug 22 and the bull trigger
  • RES 2: 1.3890 High Sep 11
  • RES 1: 1.3848 High Sep 15 
  • PRICE: 1.3779 @ 20:53 BST Sep 19
  • SUP 1: 1.3727 Low Aug 29 and a bear trigger  
  • SUP 2: 1.3709 61.8% retracement of the Jul 23 - Aug 22 bull cycle
  • SUP 3: 1.3658 76.4% retracement of the Jul 23 - Aug 22 bull cycle 
  • SUP 4: 1.3637 Low Jul 25  

A sharp sell-off in USDCAD early last week resulted in a break of the 20-and-50-day EMAs. This undermines a recent bullish theme and exposes key short-term support at 1.3727, the Aug 27 low. A clear break of this level would strengthen a bearish threat and signal scope for a deeper retracement. For bulls, resistance levels to watch are; 1.3890, the Sep 11 high, and 1.3925, the Aug 22 high and bull trigger.

  • SUP 4: 0.6373 Low Jun 23

The AUDUSD uptrend remains intact and the current pullback is considered corrective - for now. The recent rally plus the breach of 0.6625, the Jul 24 high and bull trigger, confirms a resumption of the uptrend. The climb opens the 0.6726 next, a Fibonacci projection. MAe studies are in a bull-mode position highlighting a dominant uptrend. Key support to watch is 0.6415, the Aug 21 / 22 low. Initial support to watch is 0.6586 (pierced), the 20-day EMA.

The trend set-up in EURJPY remains bullish and last Thursday’s gains reinforce current conditions. The cross breached resistance at 173.97, the Jul 28 high and a bull trigger. This confirms a resumption of the medium-term uptrend and maintains the price sequence of higher highs and higher lows. Sights are on 174.86, a Fibonacci projection. On the downside, first support to watch lies at 172.92, the 20-day EMA.
