28th September Wednesday 2022: Technical Outlook and Review

 

USD/JPY:

On the H4 chart, price has pushed through very strongly through the 1st support at 142.574 where the 78.6% Fibonacci line lies. Price has tapped and looks to be consolidating below the 1st resistance at 144.952 where the 23.6% Fibonacci line lies. Looking for price to potential break through the 1st resistance and head towards the 2nd resistance at 147.070 where the -27.2% Fibonacci expansion line is. Alternatively, price could reflect back down from the 1st resistance back down towards the 1st support at 142.574 where the 78.6% Fibonacci line is.

Areas of consideration:

  • H4 time frame, 1st resistance at 144.952
  • H4 time frame, 1st support at 142.574

 

DXY:

On the H4, price is still respecting the bullish channel and we are bullish bias. Price is currently testing the first resistance at 114.582 where the previous swing high sits. If it breaks this level, there is a confirmation for strong bullish momentum and price might test the second resistance at 120.506 where the previous swing high sits. Alternatively price could pull back to test the first support at 110.767 where the 50% retracement and 100% projection sits. If price breaks this support it should test the second support at 107.669 where the previous swing low sits 

Areas of consideration:

  • H4 time frame, 1st resistance at 114.582
  • H4 time frame, 1st support at 110.767

EUR/USD:

On the H4, price is moving within the channel in a descending manner- we are bearish biased. Price is testing the first support at 0.9550 where the previous swing low and 161.8% extension sits. If it breaks this level, we have a strong bearish confirmation to bring price down to 0.8497 levels where the previous swing low sits. Alternatively it might pull back to test the first resistance at 0.9692 where the 23.6% retracement and 145% extension sits, then the second resistance at 0.9907 where the 50% retracement and 100% projection sits.

  • H4 1st resistance at 0.9692
  • H4 1st support at 0.9550

GBP/USD:

On the daily time frame, prices are still moving in a bearish momentum hence we are bearish biased. Price has already tested the previous swing low at 1.0355 where the 138.2% extension sits. If bearish momentum continues, it should bring price to 0.9665 where the 161.8% extension sits. Alternatively price could pull back to test the first resistance at 1.0915 where the 38.2% retracement sits then the second resistance at 1.1408 where the previous swing low and 78.6% retracement sits 

Areas of consideration:

Price has broken the first support and is moving toward the first resistance at 0.9973 where the 100% projection,127.2% extension and swing high sits. If bullish momentum continues, it should bring price to the second resistance at 1.0046 where the previous swing high sits. Alternatively, price could pull back to test the first support at 0.9852 where the 23.6% retracement and overlapping resistance sits. If it breaks the first support, it should bring price to the second support at 0.9626 where the previous swing low sits.
