GBPUSD is unchanged having erased the entirety of a mid-session rally yesterday. For bulls, support at 1.2591, the Jun 29 low, remains intact. Resistance to watch is 1.2760, Jun 27 high. This level was pierced yesterday. A stronger break would pave the way for a climb towards key resistance at 1.2849, a Fibonacci projection. On the downside, a break of 1.2591 would resume the recent downtrend and expose the 50-day EMA at 1.2575.

SCHATZ TECHS: (U3) Pullback Exposes Key Support

Jun-07 05:05
  • RES 4: 105.975 High May 17
  • RES 3: 105.875 High Jun 1 and key short-term resistance
  • RES 2: 105.815 High Jun 4
  • RES 1: 105.655 High Jun 6
  • PRICE: 105.585 @ 05:47 BST Jun 7
  • SUP 1: 105.425 Low Jun 6
  • SUP 2: 105.360 Low May 29
  • SUP 3: 105.330 Low May 26 and key support
  • SUP 4: 105.000 Round number support

Schatz futures remain below 105.875, the Jun 1 high and the contract is trading closer to its recent lows. A continuation lower would expose key short-term support at 105.330, the May 26 low. Clearance of this level would strengthen bearish conditions and signal scope for weakness towards the 105.00 handle. On the upside, 105.875 marks the key short-term resistance. A break would be bullish. Initial resistance is 105.655, the Jun 6 high.

  • SUP 4: 1.2213 Low Mar 27

The pullback in GBPUSD from last week’s high highlights a bearish threat and key S/T resistance has been defined at 1.2545, the Jun 2 high. Note that, despite a brief test above it last week, the 61.8% retracement of the May 10 - 25 downleg at 1.2538 remains intact - an important short-term resistance. A continuation lower would open 1.2308, May 25 low and key support. Clearance of last Friday’s high is required to reinstate the recent bull cycle.

  • SUP 4: 1.0516 Low Mar 15 and a key support

EURUSD is unchanged and trend conditions remain bearish. Fresh cycle lows last week reinforce the bearish theme and price continues to trade below the 20- and 50-day EMAs. The recent breach of 1.0653, 76.4% of the Mar 15 - Apr 26 rally, opens 1.0551, the Mar 16 low. A firm resistance is seen at 1.0780, the 20-day EMA. A break of this average would ease bearish pressure and signal scope for a stronger correction.
