Thursday 17th September: Technical Outlook and Review

GBP/USD finally mustered enough oomph to overthrow 1.29 on the H4, taking on resistance at 1.2944 (now serving support) and shaking hands with the key figure 1.30. UK CPI data exhibited an upbeat tone, though the obvious catalyst behind the pound’s recent strength was USD softness.

Wednesday 16th September: Technical Outlook and Review

As the DXY closes out Tuesday off worst levels (92.79), EUR/USD on the H4 spun lower from the 1.19 handle in reasonably strong fashion. Above 1.19, September’s opening value is seen at 1.1937; to the downside 1.18 invites an approach. Beyond 1.18, Quasimodo support at 1.1781 is visible, followed by August’s opening level at 1.1771.

Leaving 1.27/1.2755 (yellow) unchallenged on the H4 (made up of 1.27, a 61.8% Fibonacci retracement ratio at 1.2718 [green], weekly support at 1.2739 and H4 support at 1.2755), fed by sell-stop liquidity under 1.28, GBP/USD bulls recently entered an offensive phase and shook hands with 1.29.
