HUNGARY: EURHUF Edges Lower as Major Equity Futures Record Solid Overnight Gains

Oct-15 07:04
  • Local news flow has been few and far between so far this morning, while no major data releases are scheduled for today either. Just average gross wage data for August is due this week, with that release scheduled for Friday morning (Est: +8.9% Y/Y; Prior: +8.9%).
  • EURHUF edged 0.1% lower overnight. Key resistance for the cross is at 392.96, the 50-day EMA. A clear break of this average would signal scope for a stronger recovery, opening the 395.00 handle next. On the downside, a resumption of the downtrend would open 386.70, the 1.236 projection of the Jan 7 - Mar 21 - Apr 14 price swing, ahead of the 1.382 projection at 383.84.

  • SUP 4: 1.3637 Low Jul 25  

Despite last Thursday’s pullback, a bull cycle in USDCAD remains intact. The recovery from the Aug 29 low highlights a reversal signal and if correct, marks the end of the corrective pullback between Aug 22 - 29. A continuation higher would open the bull trigger at 1.3925, the Aug 22 high. Support lies at 1.3727, the Aug 29 low. Clearance of this level would instead reinstate a short-term bear theme and expose 1.3709 initially, a Fibonacci retracement.

AUDUSD bulls remain in the driver’s seat despite. Last week’s gains plus the breach of 0.6625, the Jul 24 high and bull trigger, confirm a resumption of the uptrend. The climb opens 0.6677, a Fibonacci projection. Moving average studies are in a bull-mode position highlighting a dominant uptrend. Key support to watch is 0.6415, the Aug 21 / 22 low. Initial firm support to monitor lies at 0.6526, the 50-day EMA.
