EURUSD: Bullish But With Caution EURUSD: Having EUR managed to closed higher the past week after testing a high of 1.3966 level, risk points higher. However, with the 1.4000 level resistance nearby it may continue to fail ahead of that level with downside risk envisaged. Resistance resides at the 1.3966 level, its Mar 13 2014 high with a cut through there paving the way for a run at the 1.4000 level, its big psycho level. We expect bears to come in here and turn it lower but if eventually violated further upside is likely. Conversely, resistance resides at the 1.4050 level and then the 1.4100 level. On the downside, support lies at the 1.3833 level and then the 1.3800 level. Below here will aim at the 1.3772 level. Further down, support comes in at the 1.3685 level. All in all, EUR remains biased to the upside on further recovery.

EURUSD: Maintains Bullish Tone EURUSD: Having closed strongly higher for a fourth week in a row, further bullish offensive is likely. As long as it can trade and hold above the 1.3824 level, we look for the pair to strengthen further towards the 1.3914 level where a violation will turn attention to the 1.3950 level and then the 1.4000 level, its psycho level.

Hi, You just hit the nail on the head. We are also looking at a pullback into the 1.3824/1.3792 area before another push higher again. For USDJPY, a corrective pullback into the 102.82/3 levels is the likely scenario.

GBPUSD: Retains Broader Upside Bias Despite Hesitation. GBPUSD: Though seen hesitating, we still look for the pair to resume its bullish strength triggered off the 1.6583 level. Note that the fact that it has reversed most of intra day losses suggests that its broader upside bias remains intact and trend resumption is imminent. Immediate resistance resides at the 1.6768 level, its Feb 28 2014 high where a break will turn focus to the 1.6822 level and then the 1.6850 level, its psycho level.

GOLD: Vulnerable To The Downside GOLD: GOLD remains vulnerable to the downside having continued to maintain below the 1,345.28 level. We believe its present bear threat is temporary suggesting it will fade and return to mentioned level. However, it will have to retake the mentioned level to annul its present bear threats. Further out, resistance resides at the 1,400.00 level. Additionally, resistance stands at the 1,450.00 level, its psycho level and possibly higher towards the 1,480.00 level. Conversely, the risk to this analysis will be a return to the 1,300.00 level where bulls may come in. But if taken out, further decline is likely towards the 1,300.00 level. We expect that level to hold and turn the pair higher. However, if this fails to occur, expect more weakness to happen towards the 1,231.48 level. Further down, support comes in at the 1,218.35 level, representing its Jan 08’2014 low. All in all, GOLD remains biased to the upside in the medium term.

USDCHF: Sees Further Bearish Momentum. USDCHF: With continued weakness seeing USDCHF testing a low of 0.8776 before closing lower at the 0.8801 level on Friday, further decline remains intact.

Further down, support lies at the 0.8750 level with a cut through here paving the way for a run at the 0.8700 level, its big psycho level. Below here if seen will set the stage for more weakness towards the 0.8650 level. Its weekly RSI is bearish and pointing lower supporting this view. Conversely, to reduce its downside pressure it will have to return to the 0.8929 level followed by its resistance residing at the 0.9037 level.
