12th September Monday 2022: Technical Outlook and Review

USD/JPY:

On the H4 chart, price is still respecting the ascending channel. We are bullish bias- Price is currently testing the first support at 141.652 where the 23.6% retracement sits. Bearish momentum might bring price to the second support at 139.349 where the 38.2% retracement and overlapping support sits. Alternatively, price might continue with the bullish momentum to bring price to first resistance at 144.906 first where the 161.8% extension sits.

Areas of consideration:

  • H4 time frame, 1st resistance at 144.906
  • H4 time frame, 1st support at 141.652

 

DXY:

On the H4, prices have broken the ascending trend, we are bearish bias. Price has pulled back and is moving to test the first support at 107.995 where the 61.8% projection and previous swing low sits. If bearish momentum continues, it should bring price to the second support at 107.193 where the 78.6% projection sits. Alternatively, if price reverses from the first support, it should test first resistance at 109.323 where the 23.6% retracement sits and subsequently the second resistance at 110.769 where the previous swing high sits. 

Areas of consideration:

  • H4 time frame, 1st resistance at 109.323
  • H4 time frame, 1st support at 108.007

EUR/USD:

On the H4, price is moving in an ascending manner signalling bullish momentum – we are bullish bias. Price seems like it’s testing the first resistance at 1.0118 where the 50% retracement and 61.8% projection sits. If bullish momentum continues, it should bring price to the second resistance at 1.0274 where the 78.6% retracement and 100% projection sits. Alternatively, if price pulls back, it should test the first support at 1.0044 levels where the overlapping support sits then the second support at 0.9906 where the previous swing low sits.

  • H4 1st resistance at 1.0118
  • H4 1st support at 0.9906

GBP/USD:

On the H4, prices have broken the descending channel and are moving in a bullish momentum- we are bullish biassed. Prices seem to be moving toward the first resistance at 1.1760 where the 38.2% retracement and 61.8% projection sits. If bullish momentum continues, it should bring prices to the second resistance at 1.1872 levels where the 50% retracement sits. Alternatively, if it fails to break the first resistance, it might look to test the first support at 1.1604 where the 23.6% retracement and overlapping support sits then the second support at 1.1442 where the 161.8% extension sits

Areas of consideration:

  • H4 1st resistance at 1.1760

On the H4, with the price moving within the descending channel below ichimoku cloud, and dropping from the 1st resistance, we have a bearish bias that the price may drop to the 1st support at 1693.122, which is in line with the swing lows. Alternatively, the price may retest the 1st resistance at 1729.248, which is in line with the overlap resistance, 50 % and 38% fibonacci retracement.  If the price can break the 1st resistance, the 2nd resistance could be at 1744.692, where the 50% fibonacci retracement and overlap resistance are.
