[B]EUR/USD Technical View for 10th Dec 2015[/B]

The EUR/USD pair is still making attempts to go further upwards, while the bias in the market remains bullish. The price is testing the resistance line of 1.0900, and in case the resistance line is breached to the upside, the resistance line of 1.0950 would be the next target, which might be easily attained by bulls.

[B]USD/CHF Technical View for 10th Dec 2015[/B]

This pair is still in a strong bearish mode. The EMA 11 is below the EMA 56 while the Williams’ % Range period 20 is often in the oversold territory. At this junction, any upwards slopes of the Williams’ % Range should be interpreted as short-selling opportunities. Yes, the USD/CHF pair is under pressure at the moment.

[B]GBP/USD Technical Analysis for 10th December 2015[/B]

Since testing the distribution territory of 1.5150, the GBP/USD pair has gradually come down. In fact, there is a “sell” signal in the market, just in line with the bearish expectation on GBP pairs. It is possible that the market would continue going downwards with further 150 pips this week.


This pair is yet to make any significant moves. There are short-term upswings and downswings in the market, which made the market condition great for scalpers and intraday traders. The bias is neutral and it may continue as such until there is a movement of at least 200 pips upwards or downwards.

[B]Technical analysis of USD/CHF for January 14, 2016[/B]

USD/CHF is expected to trade in a higher range as the bias remains bullish. The pair stands firmly above its major support around 1.0020, which should call for a stabilization. Even though, a continuation of the consolidation cannot be ruled out at the current stage, its extension should be limited. To conclude, as long as 1.0020 is not broken, look for a further advance to 1.0105 and 1.0140 after a small pause.

Trading recommendations:[/B]

The pair is trading above its pivot point. It is likely to trade in a wider range as long as it remains above its pivot point. As long as the price holds above its pivot point, it is recommended to open long positions with the first target at 1.0105 and the second target at 1.0140. In the alternative scenario, it is recommended to open short positions with the first target at 0.9990, if the price moves below its pivot points. A break of this target is likely to push the pair further downwards, and one may expect the second target at 0.9950. The pivot point is at 1.0020.

Resistance levels: 1.0105, 1.0140, 1.0170

Support levels: 0.9990, 0.9950, 0.99


[B]Trading recommendations:[/B]

The pair is trading below its pivot point. It is likely to trade in a lower range as long as it remains below the pivot point. Short positions are recommended with the first target at 117.20. A break of that target will move the pair further downwards to 116.75. The pivot point stands at 118.05. In case the price moves in the opposite direction and bounces back from the support level, it will move above its pivot point. It is likely to move further to the upside. According to that scenario, long positions are recommended with the first target at 118.35 and the second target at 118.60.

Resistance levels: 118.35, 118.60, 119

Support levels: 117.20, 116.75, 116.10
