SCHATZ TECHS: (M5) Approaching The Bull Trigger

Apr-22 05:41
  • RES 4: 107.812 0.618 proj of the Mar 6 - Apr 7 - 9 price swing     
  • RES 3: 107.800 Round number resistance    
  • RES 2: 107.775 High Apr 7 and the bull trigger
  • RES 1: 107.700 Intraday high                   
  • PRICE: 107.670 @ 06:24 BST Apr 22     
  • SUP 1: 107.370 Low Apr 17  
  • SUP 2: 107.259 20-day EMA    
  • SUP 3: 107.125 Low Apr 10         
  • SUP 4: 106.965 Low Apr 9 and a key support      

Schatz futures maintain a firmer tone and sights are on 107.775, the Apr 7 high and bull trigger. The recent pullback between Apr 7 - 9, appears corrective. Clearance of 107.775 would confirm a resumption of the uptrend and open 107.812, a Fibonacci projection. Moving average studies remain in a bull-mode position, highlighting a dominant uptrend. Firm support to watch lies at 107.259, the 20-day EMA.

Apr-22 05:35

USD/JPY moves below 140.00 for the first time since September, with the greenback under pressure as U.S. policy uncertainty remains elevated (President Trump’s critique of Fed Chair Powell and ongoing trade war/reallocation headwinds provide the major sources of pressure).

  • The pair hits a low of 139.93, with next support located at the 1.382 projection of the Feb 12-Mar 11-Mar 28 price swing (139.79).
  • The bearish technical theme has deepened.
