  • RES 2: 0.8719 High May 23

  • SUP 3: 0.8558 Low Sep 11
  • SUP 4: 0.8524 Low Sep 06

EURGBP drifted lower into the Monday close, defying the bull cycle that had remained in play about the 20-day EMA. A close below this level at 0.8642 would be a bearish development and could signal a near-term top. Further losses expose 0.8630 initially ahead of 0.8569, the Sep 15 low and key support. Prices need to rise north of 0.8706 to re-initiate any bull cycle.

The uptrend in USDCAD remains intact and the pair is trading just below this week’s high. Resistance at 1.3655, the May 26 high, has been cleared. The break exposes 1.3721, a trendline resistance drawn from the Oct 13 2022 high and represents a key resistance. On the downside, key support has been defined at 1.3490. A reversal lower and a breach of this support would signal a short-term top.

  • SUP 4: 0.6215 2.236 proj of the Jun 16 - Jun 29 - Jul 13 price swing

The AUDUSD trend condition remains bearish Friday’s gains are considered corrective. The move lower this week resulted in a print below key support and the bear trigger at 0.6365, the Aug 17 low. A clear break of this level would confirm a resumption of the downtrend and pave the way for weakness towards 0.6272, the Nov 3 2022 low. Key short-term resistance has been defined at 0.6522, the Aug 30 and Sep 1 high.
