XAUUSD Weekly Technical Outlook

XAUUSD market operation on the weekly time frame is in a rising wedge (blue). It went sideways after testing the wedge support trendline. A bearish breakdown of the wedge may see bears target the 1733.05/1715.90 horizontal support zone (green). But bulls may seize on any bearish misstep to retest the 1905.90 horizontal resistance.

XAUUSD price action on the daily time frame is consolidating within the 1872.54/1807.10 range (blue). Presently, it is located at the 1839.57 minor horizontal support where the technical impulse favours bears more than bulls.

XAUUSD price action on the H4 time frame is consolidating in a rising channel (dark violet) or flag in the context of a bearish structure. Although technicals favour bears more than bulls, we may still have further northward engineering before a bearish continuation.

GBPUSD Weekly Technical Outlook

Last week, GBPUSD market operation on the weekly time frame broke down the 1.22400 multi-year support zone, then surged further southwards to retest the 1.19560 longer-term horizontal support zone (green). A bullish pushback led to market operation closing at the broken down 1.22400 handle, resulting in the printing of a long-tailed bearish candlestick. Technically, we can expect another bearish attempt to break down the 1.19560 longer-term horizontal support zone (green).

GBPUSD price action on the daily time frame turned sideways after a 61.8/78.6 zonal retracement of the 1.25950/1.19330 bearish swing. Technically, any further bullish move will be temporary, giving way to a bearish turnaround.

GBPUSD price action on the H4 time frame is sideways in the context of a bullish retracement of a bearish swing. Although we may see further bullish market engineering, a southward turnaround is imminent.

EURUSD Weekly Technical Outlook

EURUSD market operation on the weekly time frame is bearish. Last week, market operation made a bearish dive to the 1.03585 multi-year horizontal support area (green) before a bullish pullback, resulting in the printing of a doji-like candlestick. Technically, we may see another bearish retest of the area this week. Should there be a bearish misstep, bulls may feel incentivized to retest the 1.07420/1.08110 horizontal resistance zone (purple).

EURUSD price action on the daily time frame turned sideways after a bullish retracement of the 1.07736/1.03584 bearish swing. Presently, it is retesting the1.05450/1.06022 broken-down daily demand zone (blue) and, technically, susceptible to a southward rotation.

EURUSD price action on the H4 time frame made a bullish retest of the 1.05450/1.06022 broken-down daily demand zone (blue) before retracing southwards. But as the last H4 session on Friday was bullish, we may see further northward move before a southward rotation. The technical structure is still favourable to bears.

XAUUSD Weekly Technical Outlook

XAUUSD is disposed bearish on the weekly time frame. Seven weeks ago, market operation surged to the 1791.04/1761.04 horizontal support zone (green) and rejected it with a bullish retracement. A sideways of market operation ensued which gave way to a bearish mode last week. We may see bears retesting the 1791.04/1761.04 horizontal support zone (green).

XAUUSD price action on the daily time frame is sideways but technicals favour bears more than bulls. However, as last Friday’s price action printed a bullish candlestick, we may still see further northward move in the early part of this week.

XAUUSD price action is sideways on the H4 time frame in a technically bearish environment. However, as recent technical prints favour bulls, we may see further northward move before a southward turnaround.

EURUSD Weekly Technical Outlook
EURUSD market operation is retesting the 1.04980/1.037800 multi-year horizontal support zone (green) seen on the monthly time frame. On the weekly time frame, two weeks ago, market operation printed a long-tailed doji-like candlestick in the zone. This was followed by a bullish print which closed about 45 pips just above the zone last week. We may see further bullish move towards the 1.07460/1.08154 horizontal resistance area (purple).

EURUSD price action is in sideway mode on the daily time frame after a bullish push from the 1.04980/1.037800 multi-year horizontal support zone (green). Although we may still see further bullish move, the general technical structure is bearish.

GBPUSD Weekly Technical Outlook

GBPUSD market operation on the weekly time frame is bearish. It has broken down the 1.27430/1.25840 major horizontal support (purple) flipping it as resistance. There was a bullish retracement for some weeks, but it gave way to a bearish turnaround. Market operation consolidated after the bullish print of last week as it tackles the near-term 1.22940 horizontal resistance. Although the bullish pinbar printed two weeks ago may still influence further northward move, any such move would soon give way to a southward turnaround. The 1.19220 area (green) is the operating horizontal support and a likely target of bears.

GBPUSD price action on the daily time frame is sideways in a technically bearish market environment, the 1.30850/1.19315 (blue) bearish trading range. There has been a bearish rejection of the 1.27430/1.25840 major horizontal support (purple) seen on the weekly time frame, but we may still have a northward market engineering for liquidity grab. Personally, I am bearish on this pair, but, as a swing trader, I will await a feasible bearish setup at an area of value, perhaps within the 1.24120/1.24930 area of price imbalance (red).

GBPUSD price action is presently sideways on the H4 time frame after a bullish retracement, but we may still see further northward move. Nevertheless, the recent bottom tailed ‘wicky’ prints on the H4 time frame would be attractive as targets of southward rotation. This may be after further bullish move to, perhaps, retest the prevailing horizontal resistance at the 1.24120/1.24930 area (red), which is integrated to an area of price imbalance on the daily time frame.

XAUUSD Weekly Technical Outlook

The 1796.08/1772.70 horizontal support zone (green) has remained intact despite several bearish attempts to breach it since November 2021. On the monthly time frame, XAUUSD market operation made a relatively strong bullish drive to the zone in May but failed to break it down and the bearish follow-up in June met a bullish pushback at the upper part of the zone. Technically, we may see further see-saw of market operation at the zone, or even some bullish pushback, before further bearish drive.

XAUUSD market operation on the weekly time frame is largely sideways as it tackles the 1796.08/1772.70 horizontal support zone (green) seen on the monthly time frame. Despite the zone witnessing several bearish attacks, it has remained unbroken. The bearish surge to the zone last week was again met with bullish pushback, resulting in the printing of a bearish candlestick with a significant bottom wick. Although technicals still favour bears more than bulls, we may still see some bullish pushback before further bearish continuation.

XAUUSD price action on the daily time frame is tackling the 1796.08/1772.70 horizontal support zone (green) seen on the monthly time frame. The most recent bearish attack at the zone has met with bullish rejection. Presently, price action is located at the minor 1807.55/1810.95 horizontal resistance area (magenta), technically an area where we can expect some bearish challenge. At any rate, any bullish move will likely be temporary, giving way to a bearish rotation.

USDJPY Weekly Technical Outlook

USDJPY continued its bullish disposition in June. On the monthly time frame, market operation surged to the 135.310/137.360 multi-year horizontal resistance zone (purple). However, the shadow on the top of the bullish candlestick printed in June is indicative of an increased bearish pressure as market operation tackles the zone.

GBPUSD Weekly Technical Outlook

On the weekly time frame, three weeks ago, GBPUSD market operation surged to the 1.20780/1.19590 significant horizontal support zone (green) seen on the monthly time frame but met a strong bullish pushback resulting in the printing of a long-tailed bearish candlestick. A bullish print was made two weeks ago to place market operation in a sideway-mode. However, last week, a bearish market operation broke below the range to retest the 1.20780/1.19590 significant horizontal support zone (green). As market operation left a bottom shadow on the bearish candlestick printed last week, we may see bulls pushing for a northward retest of an area of value before any further bearish drive.

EURUSD Weekly Technical Outlook

EURUSD market operation retested the 1.05210/1.03240 multi-year horizontal support zone (green) in April. On the monthly time frame, there was a bullish rejection of the area, but lacking further bullish impetus in June, bears regained market influence and surged into the zone. The 1.01924 area (blue) is a nearby extension of the zone and may be a target of any further bearish drive.

On the weekly time frame, EURUSD market operation is ranging within the 1.05210/1.03240 multi-year horizontal support zone (green) seen on the monthly time frame. Last week, a relatively big bearish print broke below the open of the bullish candlestick printed two weeks ago. Although we may still see further bearish move, we cannot rule out a bullish market operation to an area of price imbalance, a situation which may favour a sell-swing trade.

Despite several attempts, EURUSD price action on the daily time frame has failed to break down the 1.05210/1.03240 multi-year horizontal support zone (green) seen on the monthly time frame.
