SCHATZ TECHS: (Z3) Bullish Engulfing Candle Still In Play

  • RES 3: 105.372 76.4% Fibonacci retracement Sep 1 - 21 downleg
  • RES 2: 105.335 High Nov 2 and key resistance
  • RES 1: 105.265 High Nov 17
  • PRICE: 105.125 @ 06:00 GMT Nov 20
  • SUP 1: 105.060/104.925 Low Nov 15 / 13 and key short-term support
  • SUP 2: 104.880/765 Low Oct 20 / Sep 21 and the bear trigger
  • SUP 3: 104.720 2.00 proj of the Aug 24 - 30 - Sep 1 price swing
  • SUP 4: 104.620 Low Jul 11 (cont)

Schatz futures reversed course last Tuesday, and the contract maintains a firmer tone - for now. A bullish engulfing candle was confirmed on Nov 14 . If correct, the pattern signals scope for a climb towards key resistance at 105.335, the Nov 2 high. A break of this hurdle would strengthen the case for bulls. On the downside, a breach of 104.925, the Nov 14 low, would instead reinstate a bearish threat.

GBPUSD TECHS: Trend Needle Points North

Nov-20 06:09
  • RES 4: 1.2643 High Sep 4
  • RES 3: 1.2592 2.0% 10-dma envelope
  • RES 2: 1.2589 50.0% retracement of the Jul 14 - Oct 4 bear leg
  • RES 1: 1.2506 High Nov 14
  • PRICE: 1.2480 @ 06:08 GMT Nov 20
  • SUP 1: 1.2320 50-day EMA
  • SUP 2: 1.2266/2187 Low Nov 14 / 10 and key short-term support
  • SUP 3: 1.2138 Low Nov 2
  • SUP 4: 1.2070 Low Oct 26

A bull cycle in GBPUSD remains in play and last week’s gains reinforce current bullish conditions. Resistance at 1.2428, the Nov 6 high, has been breached and note that price is also through 1.2459, 38.2% of the Jul 14 - Oct 4 bear leg. This signals scope for a climb towards 1.2589 next, the 50.0% retracement point. Firm short-term support is at 1.2187, the Nov 10 low. A short-term pullback would be considered corrective.
