Forex Majors technical analysis EURUSD, GBPUSD, USDCAD, AUDUSD, NZDUSD, EURGBP, USDJPY

EURUSD

The pair has broken below the wedge 1.07100 level and the next downside resistance is 1.0600. Below this level target is 1.0440 short-term. Look for short trades only with SL above 1.07300. Downside support is 1.0700 level.

 

GBPUSD

The pair is still in the long-term downtrend as long as it is below Pitchfork downside channel median line 1.2630 level. New fresh shorts only on the daily break below 1.2450 targeting 1.2230 with SL above 1.2630. The pair is again testing 100 SMA 1.2489 after a brief breakout and retest. The break below would accelerate the downside.

 

USDCAD

The pair has bounced from the strong support of medium-term upside Pitchfork channel 1.2980. The daily close above 200 SMA 1.3134 is needed for the upside reversal and continuation. Only a daily close below 1.2980 would invalidate uptrend continuation. Look for long trades with SL below 1.3050.

 

AUDUSD

The pair briefly broke above 0.7680 level of the long-term downside Pitchfork channel. A daily close below 0.7600 is required for reversal. Invalidation of the long-term downtrend only on a daily close above 0.7720. Short trades are still preferred and look attractive as long as 0.7700 holds on a daily basis.

 

NZDUSD has broken below the strong upside support 0.7240 level which will now act as a downside support. Targets on the downside are 0.7110 and 0.7057. Look for short trades with SL above 0.7250 on a pullback to 0.7220 level. The daily break below 0.7120 is needed for the downside reversal.

 

EURGBP

The pair bounced from 0.8500 strong support level and now needs to hold 200 SMA and the 0.8500 level for the upside continuation. Invalidation of this medium-term uptrend only on a daily close below  0.8480. SL on initiated long trades here should be below 0.8500.

 

USDJPY

The pair has formed a range between 112-115.300. It is bouncing from an 112 lower end of the range for a retest of 114.700. If long trades are not already in progress, buying the pair is preferred only on a daily break above 114.400. SL on existing long trades below 112.

 

USD correction is on a way. We need to see the reaction from this levels for the continuation higher.

The four forex pairs which are considered to be the most heavily traded in the forex market. The four major pairs are EURUSD, GBPUSD, AUDUSD, USDJPY.
