Gold: bulls prevail


http://forex-images.instaforex.com/userfiles/20131211/GOLDDaily.png


After a good rally, gold halted near the resistance zone. Yesterday, the market was prevailed by bulls. We penned a positive divergence in charts, hence it came true. Thanks to all the bull bidders and to the indicators. For today's trading session gold levels are following:
NEAR TERM - 1 278 strong resistance.
INTRA VIEW -  Above 1,268 only upward moves.
Resistance 1,268,   1,278,   1,290,   1,295.
Support   1,255,   1,247,   1,240,   1,237.
A close above 1,295 brings more bullish sentiment. In case of a close below 1,237, bears take control. Important levels are 1,215, 1,210, CMP 1,257.

Gold short betting was increased


http://forex-images.instaforex.com/userfiles/20131212/GOLDDaily.png


Short betting was increased in yellow metal couple of times and longs slipped. Gold lost almost 25% year to date from its 2011 peaks. Speculations increases as the Fed date comes closer. Expectations of Fed tampering of its purchasing program  makes gold move southward.
Dip buying and the weakness in USD makes gold fly higher. Gold holdings with SPDR ETF were unchanged at 835.705 tonnes.
In the tech view gold is holding its June lows around 1,180. That day gold opened at 1,200 and managed to close at higher levels, but it hit a low at 1,180. For the last few days, gold managed to hold 1,210 levels and moved towards resistance levels. We can see 1,200 levels as a floor price.
Resistance: 1,268, 1,278.
Support: 1,247, 1,240, 1,233.
Close above 1,278, then the bulls dominate in the short term, until gold trades in tight zones. Cmp 1,254.

Resistance. 1 : 103.08.

Exxon yearly breakout channel


http://forex-images.instaforex.com/userfiles/20131217/xomdaily.png


Exxon Mobil shows a good rally from the October low at 84.84. It has moved all the way to 98.8. Indicators are overbought slightly. It has broken up yearly trendline. I could expect Exxon to move much more higher to levels around 103. Monthly charts are showing bigger targets. Before an upward movement, it should make some correction and consolidation to move higher.
Support      96.6   94.5   94.2

AUD/USD Elliott Wave 
For the last few days, the AUD/USD pair has been trading downwards, impulsive wave 5 (coloured blue) of the bigger wave 1 (coloured green) has been developing. Yesterday, during the Asian and European session we could observe descending 0.8957 towards the 0.8881 level and we can consider this as the end of the 1 wave (coloured green). Therefore, during the New York session, this commodity pair did not manage to hold this level and the price has retraced back to 0.8927 level. At the moment, the USD/CAD pair is trading around 0.8927 level and we are expecting to see more upward movements in the next few days. In accordance with our wave rules and taking into account that wave 2 should retrace 50% of wave 1 we can define the potential targets with measuring wave 1 with take profit at 0.9316 (50% of wave 1). To reduce the risk, we can use invalidation point at 0.8880 level as stop loss.

Support and resistance 
(S3) 0.8792 (S2) 0.8837 (S1) 0.8868 (PP) 0.8913 (R1) 0.8944 (R2) 0.8989 (R3) 0.9020

Trading forecast 
Proceeding from Elliot Wave rules today, the trend is expected to begin the upwards movements. That is why long position at level 0.8950 with stop loss at 0.8880 and take profit at 0.9316 are recommended.

Technical analysis of GBP/USD for December 26, 2013


http://forex-images.instaforex.com/userfiles/20131226/gbpusdh1.png


Overview:
The GBP/USD pair was not stable and the trend was not also so clear (it was tight sideways range); moreover, according to the previous events, the price has still been trapped between the level of 1.6450 and 1.6220, so be careful in this area. Therefore, it should wait for a period of tight sideways range market before breakouts. Then, it will probably that the market is going to start showing the signs of bullish market from the support at the level 1.6220. In other words, it will be a good sign to buy above 1.6220 with the first target of 1.6350 and it will climb towards 1.6450. However, If the pair does not break 1.6473, the market will indicate a bearish opportunity below the resistance that will be set at the level 1.6473. The level will be strong resistance. And probably the market will call for downtrend from the level of 1.7473 in order to continue bearish towards 1.6346 (the weekly pivot point).

Gold continues its upper move after hitting the upper high at $1,182. It holds the June's low and close above the uneconomical level $1,200, which is a bull factor. In the weekly and daily charts, oscillators indicate positive divergence, hourly chart gives an overbought sign. We are still on the bearish note for the level of $1,170 and even lower.
In the hourly chart, oscillators show an overbought sign and hold above the 21 EMA at $1,232. As per daily charts, some more up move steam left before big leg down.
Resistance $1,245 $1,252 $1,268

Technical analysis of EUR/USD for January 8, 2014


http://forex-images.instaforex.com/userfiles/20140107/1389134017_eurusdh1.png


Overview: 
The EUR/USD pair has been trading in a tight sideway range since January 6, 2013 and the price has also set below the weekly resistance 1 at the level of 1.3743, moreover the price has already formed double bottom at the 1.3571 level. Accordingly, the market will move between 61.8% of Fibonacci retracement levels (1.3743) and 00% of Fibonacci retracement at the price of 1.3571. In particular, it should noted that at the level of 1.3543 which represents the support, we can expect explosive breakout and it is likely that the market is going to start showing the signs of bullish market. In other words, it will be a good sign to buy above double bottom at the level of 1.3543 with a first target at 1.3663 in order to test the weekly pivot point and it will climb towards 1.3728. However, if the the price of the EUR/USD pair breaks 1.3543 and closes below it, the market will indicate a bearish opportunity below 1.3543 then the best location to set stop loss should be at the 1.3545 price.

Technical outlook and chart setups:
1. The currency pair has stopped us out at 1.4950 in the past session. As seen in the weekly chart here, a former resistance at 1.5000 has also been broken. It is recommended to remain flat for now. The 1.5150 level is into focus now.
2. The next resistance is at the 1.5150 level, while support is just below 1.4900, followed by 1.4800 and lower.

Daily analysis of USD/CHF for January 10, 2014


http://forex-images.instaforex.com/userfiles/20140109/usdchfh4.png


Overview: 
According to the previous events, the price of the USD/CHF pair has still been movin between the levels of 0.9115 and 0.9003. In the same away, the range of the pair was around 60 pips today. Volatility was only 54,56; therefore, the market indicates lower volatility, so we expect medium volatility on January 10, 2013, because, as it is known, the market is low volatile if the last day had not huge volatility. Additionally, the level of 0.9115 has set below 78.6% of Fibonacci retracement levels and it has formed a strong resistance for that the key level of 0.9115 is represented for downtrend to confirm the bearish market. Equally important, the market was so stable and the trend was also too clear (downward). In consequence, sell deals are recommended below the 0.9115 level with targets at 0.9065 in order to test the minor support, and it will resume towards 0.9010 to attempt testing the support of the week at the 0.9003 level.

Weekly technical levels for GBP/USD for January 13-17, 2014


http://forex-images.instaforex.com/userfiles/20140112/gbpusdh1.png


Overview: 
As it is known, historic rates should be used to determine future prices. According to the previous events of the last week, the GBP/USD pair has still been moving between 1.6405 and 1.6550 for five days. It should be also noticed that the price has closed at the level of 1.6482. Expect a move to resistance 1 or back towards the weekly pivot point. Therefore, buy in the short period at the 1.6464 level with the first target of 1.6516 in order to test the last double top; futhermore, it might resume towards 1.6550. Nevertheless, it must beware because sometimes the market seems that it doesn't follow our forecast. So for getting out spank from the market before losing your profit, it will be very meaningful to set stop loss below the weekly support at 1.6360.

1. Gold rallied through the $1,255.00 levels yesterday and a push today could see $1,267.00/70.00 before pullback. It is recommended to remain flat for now and look to enter on a dip.

http://forex-images.instaforex.com/userfiles/20140114/1389740822_gbpusdh1.png


Overview: 
The GBP/USD pair will probably be trapped between 1.6373 and 1.6516 consequently; it is of the wisdom to be careful at this range area of 143 pips. In particular, it will be too meaningful to wait for a period of tight sideway range market before investing. Equally important, the level of 1.6373 formed a strong support, as well as this price is very conformity with 23.6% of the Fibonacci retracement levels. Thereupon, it is likely that the market is going to start showing the signs of bullish market. In other words, it will be a good sign to buy above the 0.6373 level with the first target of 1.6445 in order to retest the weekly pivot point and it will climb towards the price of 1.6516 for forming double top. Additionally, it should also be noted that the weekly resistance 1 for January 15-17, 2013 is set at 1.6553. However, If the the pair does not break this resistance, the market will indicate a bearish opportunity below 1.5660, then the level will act really as strong resistance, for that it will a good sign to sell below 1.6553 with the first target of 1.5503 and it will call for downtrend in order to continue bearish towards 1.6466 tomorrow.

http://forex-images.instaforex.com/userfiles/20140115/1389828020_usdchfh1.png


Overview: 
The USD/CHF pair has not shown signs of a break of the highest level of 0.9126, but it has opened today above the weekly support at the level of 0.9050; therefore, it will be a good sign to buy above the level of 0.9050 with the first target of 0.9115 and resume to 0.9145 in order to form a new double top on January 16, 2013. However, in case a reversal takes place and the USD/CHF pair breaks through the support level of 0.9050, then the market will lead to further decline to 0.9004 (00% Fibonacci retracement levels) for testing the double bottom of the last week, as well as it will be able to indicate the correction movement at this level. Meanwhile, in the H1 chart represents a strong support at the first weekly support at 0.8977, besides the channel emerging of RSI has still positive in the daily frame, for that the RSI calls for a new upleg at this level. Moreover it should be noted a point of view that the MA(100) would be more of a confirmation for uptrend but in a short term period.

Overview: T
he resistance of the GBP/USD pair had been already set at the level of 1.6445 (the weekly pivot point on January 17, 2013) and a minor resistance has set at the 1.6373 level. Therefore, according to the previous events, the price has still been moving between 0.6370 and 0.6285, then it should be noted that the range today will be around 110 pips. Consequently, the trend in the 1H time frame will be calling for a bearish market at the level of 1.6400. Hence, below 1.6400 look for further downside move with targets at 1.6330, if it will be able to break the minor support for today at 1.6333, so the price will continue towards 1.6265 today in order to test the weekly support. Notwithstanding, it should be always beware to set a stop loss, thus the best location to set the stop loss in this case should be above the weekly pivot point.

The German economy grew 0.4% in the previous year and is expected to show better performance in the current year of 2014. The euro zone is showing a good signof recovery led by increase domestic demand. Strong domestic demand plays avital role in the German recovery. In the year of 2013, GDP stretched by just 0.4%compared to 2012, the worst performancesince 2009 - the lowest level for four years. In 2014, GDPis forecasted to grow by 1.2-2.0%.

http://forex-images.instaforex.com/userfiles/20140122/1390432175_gbpusdh4.png


Overview:
This week, the GBP/USD pair has an upside movement from 1.6415 to 1.6517, and today the market has opened at the price of 1.6566. Furthermore, the uptrend represents the double bottom of the channel emerging at the level of 1.6415. It is equally important that the RSI has still been positive in the daily time frame, so it calls for a new upward movement. Therefore, the price movement will be trapped between 1.6615 and 1.6466 (Fibonacci retracement levels in H4 chart). Moreover, the pair has already formed major support at the level of 1.6503. For that it should be noted that the price was set above this level a long time ago, and the market will indicate a bullish opportunity at the level of 1.6500, with the first target at 1.6565, then if it breaks 1.655, there will be a breakout above this level with the second target at the 1.6611 price. However, the best location for placing a stop loss should be below 1.6412.

Daily analysis of GBP/JPY for January 27, 2014


http://forex-images.instaforex.com/userfiles/20140127/gbpjpy_27-1.png


Overview
In the H4 chart, the pair reversed its downward move taking an upward move due to the strong Support level of 167.75. Today as shown in the H4 chart, the pair bounced from the Support area breaking the Resistance level of 168.50, and currently it is approaching the Resistance level of 169.50 trying to break it through to continue its bullish move which means more buy-signals keeping its movement inside the bullish channel. So we should wait till the price closes above the Resistance level of 169.50 before making the decision to have a bullish signals with the first target few pips below the next Resistance level of 170.00. But closing below the Resistance level of 168.50 cancels the bullish move scenario.

Resistance and Support levels:
R3 (170.75), R2(170.00), R1(169.50), S1 (168.50), S2 (167.75), S3(167.10).
