OUTLOOK: Price Signal Summary - USDJPY Resistance Remains Intact
- In FX, a bullish theme in EURUSD remains intact and recent weakness appears corrective. Moving average studies are in a bull-mode position highlighting a dominant uptrend. Key near-term support lies at 1.0733, the Mar 27 low. A move through it would confirm a clear breach of the 20-day EMA and signal scope for a deeper correction towards the 50-day EMA at 1.0661. Key resistance and the bull trigger is 1.0955, the Mar 18 high.
- GBPUSD is in consolidation mode and trading in a range. Importantly for bulls, the pair continues to trade closer to its recent highs. MA studies are in a bull-mode position highlighting a dominant uptrend. A breach of 1.3015, the Mar 20 high and bull trigger, would resume the uptrend and open 1.3048, the Nov 6 2024 high. Support at the 20-day EMA, at 1.2891, is intact. A clear break of the 20-day EMA is required to signal scope for a deeper correction.
- Near-term resistance in USDJPY remains intact. The primary trend direction is unchanged, it remains down and the latest recovery is considered corrective. Key resistance is unchanged, around the 50-day EMA, at 150.82. A clear break of this EMA would undermine the bearish theme and signal scope for a stronger rally towards 152.70, a 50.0% retracement of the Jan 10 - Mar 11 bear leg. The first key support to watch is 148.18, the Mar 20 low. A breach would be bearish.
BONDS: Core and Semi Core Bonds are extending higher
- Further upside continuation in Core and semi core Govies on both side of the Pond, early flows in the German Bund has been some positioning ahead of the Tariffs announcement.
- As mentioned on the Bund open, Invertors will look for Upside risks in futures very short term, given the Global growth concerns, but the latest set of Data could point towards Stagflation.
- German 10yr Yield sees the 2.65% level close to that 129.54/129.60 resistance area, Today that level is at 129.63.
- For TYM5, while the March high is at 112.01, the March and the 2025 low in the 10yr Yield of 4.1040%, would equate today to 112.03+.
