SCHATZ TECHS: (U4) Breaches Support At The 20-Day EMA

Jul-02 05:14
  • RES 4: 106.009 2.382 proj of the May 24 - Jun 4 - 7 price swing
  • RES 3: 105.975 High Jun 14 and the bull trigger
  • RES 2: 105.895 High Jun 21
  • RES 1: 105.620/105.780 20-day EMA / High Jun 28
  • PRICE: 105.525 @ 05:39 BST Jul 2
  • SUP 1: 105.475 Low Jul 1
  • SUP 2: 105.440 61.8% retracement of the May 24 Jun 14 bull cycle
  • SUP 3: 105.375 Low Jun 13
  • SUP 4: 105.314 76.4% retracement of the May 24 Jun 14 bull cycle

Schatz futures traded lower Monday and the contract breached support around the 20-day EMA, at 105.620. This undermines the recent bullish theme and signals scope for a deeper retracement. A continuation lower would open 105.440, a Fibonacci retracement point. Clearance of this level would strengthen a developing bearish threat. On the upside, initial firm resistance to watch is 105.780, the Jun 28 high. A break would be bullish.

GBPUSD TECHS: Bear Threat Remains Present

  • RES 4: 1.2947 1.50 proj of the Apr 22 - May 3 - 9 price swing

  • SUP 3: 1.2514 61.8% retracement of the Apr 22 - Jun 12 bull cycle
  • SUP 4: 1.2446 Low May 9 and a key near-term support

A bearish threat in GBPUSD remains present and the pair continues to trade closer to its recent lows. Recent weakness has resulted in a breach of a key support at 1.2669, the 50-day EMA, signalling scope for a deeper correction towards 1.2584 next, the May 15 low. For bulls, a reversal higher and a break of 1.2860, the Jun 12 high, would resume the uptrend. Initial firm resistance to watch is 1.2740, the Jun 19 high.
