Topic: Weekly Trading Forecasts for Major Pairs (March 6 - 10, 2017) (Read 218 times)

Here’s the market outlook for the week:

EURUSD
Dominant bias: Bearish
EURUSD went downwards last week, tested the support line at 1.0500, and then rallied significantly on Friday.  Actually, the Friday rally might end up being a good opportunity to sell short at better prices (unless the resistance line at 1.0700 is breached to the upside, which would result in bullish signal). This week, price could test the support lines at 1.0450, 1.0400 and 1.0350; for the outlook on EURUSD is bearish.

USDCHF
Dominant bias: Bullish
There is still a weak bullish outlook on this pair, though it is currently showing some weakness. Price is now above the support level at 1.0050, and as long as EURUSD continues going downwards, USDCH would continue trudging upwards, possibly reaching the resistance levels at 1.0100 (which was actually tested and breached temporarily last week), 1.0150 and 1.0200. On the other hand, a movement below the support level at 1.0000 would result in a bearish outlook. 

GBPUSD
Dominant bias: Bearish
GBPUSD dropped 200 pips last week, briefly moving below the accumulation territory at 1.2250, before bouncing upwards from there. The upward bounce is something that is supposed to be transitory, for the outlook on the market is bearish for this week. The targets to be possibly reached are located at the accumulation territories at 1.2250, 1.2200 and 1.2150. Some other GBP pairs like GBPNZD and GBPAUD might also be seen going bearish this week.

USDJPY
Dominant bias: Bullish
There is a bullish bias on this trading instrument, but this is nothing yet over-the-top. Price went upwards from the demand level at 112.00, reaching the supply level at 114.50 (a northwards movement of 250 pips). Since there is some kind of weakness in JPY, it is possible that the supply levels at 115.00, 115.50 and 116.00 would be attained this week. Should that happen, the bullish bias would simply become stronger.

EURJPY
Dominant bias: Bullish 
This cross went north by 270 pips last week. Price rose from the demand zone at 118.50, and closing above the demand zone at 121.00 on March 3. There is a strong Bullish Confirmation Pattern in the market. Since the outlook on JPY pairs is bullish for this week, it is anticipated that this EURJPY would continue going upwards, reaching the supply zones at 121.50, 122.00 and 122.50 before the end of this week.

This forecast is concluded with the quote below:

“Traders, by their very nature, are optimistic risk takers. We believe we can make money. We say ‘Yes’ to risk. We say ‘Yes’ to learning about how to trade effectively. We say ‘Yes’ to a brighter future for ourselves and our family.” – Louise Bedford
