FX Market Less Influenced By Equity Selloff And Subsequent Rebound

/in /by

Dear Traders,

The Forex market was less influenced by the selloff in equities at the beginning of this week. While the recent crash and subsequent recovery in equities have sparked a wave of volatility in global markets, the moves in forex have been more conservative.

The EUR/USD remained resilient and ended the trading day virtually unchanged after bouncing off near the 1.2310/00-support level. As long as the euro trades between 1.25 and 1.23 there is nothing new to report.

The GBP/USD dropped amid heightened volatility towards 1.3830 from where a relief rally started, erasing earlier losses with a rebound towards 1.40. At the end of the day, the pound ended the trading unchanged against the dollar. Traders should now prepare for larger swings with Brexit talks and Super Thursday looming.

GBP/USD

Looking at the daily chart we see that bearish momentum is fading after the pound stopped its fall above 1.3830. While we expected lower targets to be at 1.3830 and 1.38, we now prepare for potential pullbacks. If the pound climbs back above 1.40 and is able to stabilize above that threshold, we anticipate further bullish momentum towards 1.42 and possibly even a break above 1.43. That bullish scenario is however not a foregone conclusion as sellers may re-emerge.

Pound Takes Breather While The Euro Stabilizes Around 1.1050

/in /by

Dear Traders,

While the British pound extended its record selloff in the aftermath of last week’s vote, the euro traded sideways Monday, straining the nerves of breakout-traders as price movements were limited to either side. The euro gained some ground above the 1.0970-level, but this does not necessarily mean that bearish momentum has already been exhausted. If the euro breaks again below 1.10 we see chances of a renewed downslide towards 1.0950 and 1.09. On the other hand, if the euro climbs above 1.1085 a next crucial resistance level is seen at 1.1133. The euro would need to break that level significantly in order to invigorate fresh bullish momentum.

The pound sterling tagged a fresh low at 1.3120 from where it started a relief rally. The focus will now shift to the 1.3475-resistance and in case sterling is able to take this hurdle, we could see a rally towards 1.37 and 1.3780. However, if GBP remains below 1.3360 we favor a bearish stance with a next lower target at 1.3050.

From the U.S. we have revisions to first-quarter GDP scheduled for release at 12:30 UTC followed by Consumer Confidence at 14:00 UTC. Theses reports may have an impact on the greenback but for the time being, economic reports are likely to be of secondary importance as compared with talks about the guidance on how the U.K. will be extricated from the EU bloc. Prime Minister David Cameron will meet EU leaders for dinner today.
