EURUSD 4h

Support at 1.08350 , 1.08150 & 1.08000

Resistance at 1.08550, 1.08650 & 1.08750

As expected yesterday, we have reached the support zone. Now watch 1.08350 and 1.08150 as possible launching pads for another attempt Up.

Pattern wise, this is a moment when we have to sit back and wait to see – both ways are possible – 50-50 chance.

If below 1.08150  it would open a way for bigger correction.

USDX 4 HOUR CHART – PROXY FOR THE EURUSD?

With the EURUSD representing 57.6% of the US Dollar Index (USDX), this index can at times be used as a proxy for what is seen on a EURUSD chart.

In this USDX chart, momentum is trying to build to the upside that needs to take out 105.10 to indicate an end to this latest leg to the downside.

USDCHF 4 HOUR CHART – Underperformer but resistance looms

A tight range so far this week but USDCHF momentum is pointed up but faces layers of resistance until the .9224 high.

The significance of this level is it is a 4-week high, a break of which would be significant.

Expect support on dips as long as it stays above 9078

All stock market internals closed under moderate pressure.  Being long Euro holds limited potential if trading very short term.

XAUUSD 4 HOUR CHART – 2400-2450 BUT FOR HOW LONG?

tHIS CHART IS VERY CLEAR —

2450 IS THE NEW RECORD HIGH (pOWER OF 50)

2407 IS KEY SUPPORT, IF BROKEN THE 2 BLUE AT LINES WOULD INDICATE A CHANGE IN DIRECTIONAL RISK ALTHOUGH i WOULD LOOK FOR CONFIRMATION FROM A 2400 BREAK.

OTHERWISE, XAUUSD IS JUST TAKING A BREATHER AS LONG AS IT TRADES IN 2400-2450
