analytics5f02bc8edb484.jpg


Technical Market Outlook:
The GBP/USD pair has been hovering around the level of 1.2438 for most part of the weekend, but during the early Monday trading hours the bullish activity has increased. It looks like the bulls might want to test the 50% Fibonacci retracement once again, so in the case of a successful breakout, the next target for them is 61% retracement located at the level of 1.2597. Please notice, there is an important intraday technical resistance located just above 50% Fibonacci retracement at the level of 1.2542. On the other hand, the nearest technical support is still seen at the level of 1.2406 and 1.2362.

Weekly Pivot Points:

WR2 - 1.2698
WR1 - 1.2610
Weekly Pivot - 1.2423
WS1 - 1.2323
WS2 - 1.2148
WS3 - 1.2056

Trading Recommendations:
On the GBP/USD pair the main trend is down, which can be confirmed by the down candles on the weekly time frame chart. The key long-term technical support has been recently violated (1.1983) and the new one is seen at the level of 1.1404. The key long-term technical resistance is seen at the level of 1.3518. Only if one of these levels is clearly violated, the main trend might reverse (1.3518) or accelerate (1.1404). The market might have done a Double Top pattern at the level of 1.2645, so the price might move even lower in the longer-term.

Forecast for EUR/USD on July 7, 2020

EUR/USD
The euro broke the resistance of the target level of 1.1265 on Monday, showing a growth of 61 points. The price peaked on June 23. After overcoming the intermediate level of 1.1353, we expect the growth to continue to 1.1420, the second goal is 1.1465. Reaching any of these levels with the Marlin oscillator will form a technical divergence, which will become a reversal signal. Perhaps a medium-term downward trend.

analytics5f03f66794724.jpg


The price is firmly held above both indicator lines on the four-hour chart – the balance line (red) and the MACD line (blue). The Marlin oscillator is in the growth zone. We are waiting for the euro to grow to the designated goal of 1.1420.

Technical Analysis of EUR/USD for July 8, 2020:

Technical Market Outlook:
After the EUR/USD pair has hit the level of 1.1347 which is the part of the supply zone located between the levels of 1.1347 - 1.1361 the price reversed quickly. The Bearish Engulfing candlestick pattern at the top of the rally has forced bulls to pull-back towards the technical support located at the level of 1.1300, but even this level was violated and the market trades now around 1.1268. The key intraday support is still seen at the level of 1.2228 and break out below this level will likely end up in test of the 1.1185 support. The momentum remains positive on H4 time frame, but there is no clear indication regarding the market conditions.

Weekly Pivot Points:
WR3 - 1.2879
WR2 - 1.2698
WR1 - 1.2610

Forecast for EUR/USD on July 9, 2020

EUR/USD The euro confirmed its intention to form a new local high yesterday, above June 10 at 1.1420, and thereby form a divergence with the Marlin oscillator. The signal line of this indicator entered the positive trend zone. We are waiting for the price in the target range of 1.1420/65. Overcoming it can raise the price even higher, to the target level of 1.1560.

The price is gathering new strength before taking the intermediate level of 1.1353 on the four-hour chart. The Marlin oscillator turned around from the border with the territory of the bears, the growth of Marlin is strong, the price is higher than the balance and MACD indicator lines. Most likely the resistance will be overcome.

USD/JPY price movement for July 10, 2020.

On the 4-hour chart, the USD/ JPY pair is now trying to reach the 106.81 level as its first target. If the bullish momentum is strong enough, there is a possibility that USD/JPY will continue its downward movement and reach the 106.09 level too as its second target. This scenario is likely to occur as long as this pair does not rise and close above the 107.41 level.

Forecast for EUR/USD on July 13, 2020

EUR/USD
The euro closed Friday with growth. The price found strong support at 1.1265. The growth continues this morning, the Marlin oscillator is in a hurry to move to the growth zone – in the upper half of its own window. The divergence option, in which the euro will show a new high (1.1465), is gaining more and more strength.

The price overcomes the signal level of 1.1315 on the four-hour chart, the Marlin oscillator moved to the growing trend zone, and the nearest growth target is the level of 1.1353. Overcoming the level opens the way to 1.1420, then to 1.1465. The recently formed divergence is considered fulfilled, the price has taken a course for a new short-term trend.

Forecast for EUR/USD on July 14, 2020

EUR/USD
The euro showed the expected growth on Monday, but the structure of this growth was tricky, there was a potential for the price to turn down, in a deep correction, for example, to the target level of 1.1195. This warning signal is weak on the daily chart. This is the probability of a reversal of the signal line of the Marlin oscillator from the border of the growth territory. Consolidating the price above yesterday's high will continue to develop in the market according to the main scenario – the euro's growth in the target range of 1.1420/65 with a divergence forming on Marlin.

The risk of a downward price reversal is stronger on the four-hour chart - this is a double divergence on the Marlin oscillator. Leaving the price below 1.1265 opens the remaining path to 1.1195. After falling below this level, the price will face a difficult task of reaching the target level of 1.1010 – it will face both difficult supports and weak dynamics on the discharged oscillators.

Technical Analysis of GBP/USD for July 15, 2020:

Technical Market Outlook:

After the GBP/USD pair had made a Double Top price pattern at the level of 1.2668, the bears have managed to push the prices towards the level of 1.2484 which is the key short-term technical support for the market. The price has bounced from support, but no new high was made yet ( the local high was made at the level of 1.2586. The bulls might try to test the trend line from below, but this move would require more momentum in order to get to the level of 1.2640. The RSI indicator shows the momentum is neutral, so neither bulls not bears are in control of the market (on the short-term time frame like H4). Any violation of the level of 1.2466 will accelerate the sell-off towards the next technical support seen at the level of 1.2406.

Weekly Pivot Points:WR3 - 1.2915WR2 - 1.2796WR1 - 1.2712Weekly Pivot - 1.2585WS1 - 1.2508WS2 - 1.2378

Trading Recommendations:

On the GBP/USD pair the main trend is down, which can be confirmed by the down candles on the weekly time frame chart.

This is the seventh attempt to rally above the supply zone located between the levels of 1.1406 - 1.1419. The RSI indicator shows the positive and strong momentum, so the market participants should wait for a Pin Bar like candlestick around the level of 1.1400.

Control zones for AUDUSD on 07/17/2020

Previously opened purchases must be kept. The first goal for growth is to renew weekly and monthly highs. It is important to understand that a reversal model will only form in case closing of trades occur below the WCZ 1/2 0.6949-0.6940. Until this happens, buying is the best strategy. Yesterday's decline made it possible for us to get favorable prices to open a long position.

Closing today's trading above the week's local high will make it possible for us to talk about growth lasting until next week.

Testing the WCZ 1/2 0.6949-0.6940 will be required to obtain more favorable prices for purchasing the instrument. If this happens, then the entrance will require any absorption pattern to form on a time frame of at least m30. It is necessary to close today's trading below the WCZ 1/2 to break the upward pattern. This will allow you to exit all long positions and consider sales on Monday.

Daily CZ - daily control zone. The area formed by important data from the futures market, which changes several times a year.
Weekly CZ - weekly control zone. The zone formed by important marks of the futures market, which changes several times a year.
Monthly CZ - monthly control zone. The zone, which is a reflection of the average volatility over the past year.

Technical Analysis of BTC/USD for July 21, 2020:

Crypto Industry News:
The underground of the Internet, or darknet, is that part of the web that is beyond the reach of traditional browsers and search engines. There are tons of digital markets in this network where all kinds of illegal goods are traded and paid for with cryptocurrencies.

In a State of Crypto Crimes report released earlier this year, blockchain analyst Chainalysis investigated crimes committed using cryptography, among them darknet transactions, which were the most consistent. In 2019, revenues from online underground markets hit a new record of $ 790 million.

While indicators on all financial fronts for these markets are rising, one aspect that remains much more consistent is the choice of cryptocurrency.

"The most popular cryptocurrency used by the darknet is Bitcoin," said Kim Grauer, head of research, and Carles Lopez-Penalver, senior cybercrime analyst at Chainlysis.

Among the altcoins used are Litecoin, Bitcoin Cash, and Monero. Even though only one of the three cryptos listed above has privacy features, the popular altcoins are widely used. However, some markets have seen exclusive use of Monero because of its encrypted web features, Chainalysis management said.

Altcoins are even more distant as operations grow in size and scale. According to Bitfury's Crystal Blockchain report, in the first quarter of 2020, darknet entities received more than $ 384 million in Bitcoin and more than $ 411 million was sent, where the recipients of these transactions are exchanges divided between those that have verification requirements and those that do not.

Unlike high-value Bitcoin transactions, Grauer and Lopez-Penalver added that altcoins are only used for smaller darknet transactions.

Technical Market Outlook:
The BTC/USD pair has been trading around the 38% Fibonacci retracement of the last wave down that is located at the level of $9,157. The bears had pushed the price down from the local high made at the level of $9,201, but the price did not come back under the short-term trend line. The momentum remains neutral which indicates another sideways day. The next targets for bulls are seen at the levels of $9,209 and $9,261. The nearest technical support is located at $9,095.

Weekly Pivot Points:
WR3 - $9,569
WR2 - $9,411
WR1 - $9,271
Weekly Pivot - $9,117
WS1 - $8,968
WS2 - $8,812
WS3 - $8,862

Trading Recommendations:
The volatility on Bitcoin has been subdued for more than two months now, so the larger time frame trend remains down and as long as the level of $10,791 is not violated, all rallies will be treated as a counter-trend corrective moves. This is why the short positions are now more preferred until the level of $10,791 is clearly violated. The key mid-term technical support is located at the level of $7,897.

Forecast for EUR/USD on July 22, 2020

EUR/USD The euro rose by 78 points yesterday due to information that the 750 billion euro fund for the EU's recovery from coronavirus has finally been created. The momentum that the euro received could still grow towards the yet-to-be-reached target of 1.1560, possibly to 1.1620, but along with the fading news itself and local market overheating, which is signaled by the Marlin oscillator forming a divergence with the price, a subsequent reversal of the euro down into the range of 1.195-1.1265 is likely.

The price is growing above the balance and MACD lines on the H4 chart, the Marlin oscillator is actively growing and is close to overbought.

The current situation in the euro is such that it is no longer advisable to buy, and too early to sell. Even if we assume the option with a further medium-term rise of the single currency, it is better to wait for the price to pull back, which will occur, at least, in the range of 1.1420/65.

Forecast for EUR/USD on July 28, 2020

EUR/USD
The euro decided to play its role to the end. Yesterday the price exceeded the target level of 1.1735, closing the day by gaining 96 points. Now the price should reach the upper border of the price channel around 1.1800. With the price level and the Marlin oscillator developing, divergence persists, respectively, we are waiting for the price to reverse down in the medium term. The timing may coincide that a reversal from such a key level will occur tomorrow, that is, on the day of the Federal Reserve's announcement of its decision on monetary policy.

The oscillator shows a timid attempt to reverse against the rising price on the four-hour chart. This could be noise, or it could be warning a reversal. But since the Fed announces its decision tomorrow, the situation will be resolved on Wednesday.

The main issue that concerns investors is the Fed's intention to target the yield curve for government bonds. If they hint that this is not necessary, the dollar will get a fresh dose of optimistic mood.
