Weekly Trading Forecasts for Major Pairs (July 31 – August 4, 2017)

Here’s the market outlook for the week:

EURUSD
Dominant bias: Bullish
EURUSD, which has generally been bullish this year, went upwards by 100 pips last week, testing the resistance line at 1.1750. Some attempts were made to breach the resistance line to the upside, but to no avail. However, the resistance line remains under siege and it may be breached to the upside, as other resistance lines at 1.1800 and 1.1850 are targeted. The outlook on EUR pairs is bearish for this week, but bullish for August 2017; so we may see some considerable correction before the end of the week.

USDCHF
Dominant bias: Bullish
Perpetual weakness in CHF has helped USDCHF to generate a clean bullish signal (most CHF pairs also skyrocketed while the CHF/JPY plummeted). Price gained about 250 pips last week, and it is currently volatile. The market would continue going upwards as long as CHF shows weakness. This is a classical example of when both USDCHF and EURUSD go into a positive correlation; i.e., they both go upwards. The USDCHF normally goes into opposite direction to EURUSD, but this time around, the case is being influenced by exponential weakness in CHF. Price may go further upwards to test the resistance levels at 0.9750 and 0.9800. However, CHF would regain its losses, starting from this week and throughout August; something that would send CHF pairs (including USDCHF) southwards.

GBPUSD
Dominant bias: Bullish
GBPUSD was able to retain its bullishness last week, trying to go upward just like EURUSD has done, since both of them normally go into positive correlation. The distribution territory at 1.3150 was tested repeatedly last week, and it might be breached to the upside this week, as other distribution territories at 1.3200 and 1.3250 are aimed. Although GBP pairs would experience mixed results in August, GBPUSD would not really become bearish as long as it stays above the accumulation territory at 1.2850.

USDJPY
Dominant bias: Bearish
In this market, this month has been bearish so far. Last week was also characterized by bearishness in spite of bull’s desperate effort to push price upwards, which made price tested the supply level at 112.00, before price went downwards to close below the demand level at 111.00. The next target is the demand level at 110.50, which would easily be breached as other demand levels at 110.00 and 109.50 are targeted. The outlook on JPY pairs is bearish for this week and for August. Therefore, long trades are not recommended.

EURJPY
Dominant bias: Neutral
This currency trading instrument has been consolidating for about two weeks, resulting in short term neutrality. A movement above the supply zone at 130.50 would bring about a Bullish Confirmation Pattern in the market; while a movement below the demand zone at 128.00 would result in a bearish bias. This is what is expected to happen within the next several trading days. Nonetheless, bear would eventually become a winner in August.

This forecast is concluded with the quote below:

Weekly Trading Forecasts for Major Pairs (August 7 - 11, 2017)

Here’s the market outlook for the week:

EURUSD
Dominant bias: Bullish
This pair edged higher last week, reaching the resistance line at 1.1900, before the pullback that is currently being experienced. Price has gained more than 1000 pips since early May 2017, and the trend for this year has generally been bullish. The pullback may end up giving a good opportunity to buy long at better prices, in the context of an uptrend (for the outlook on EUR is bullish for this week). Price could thus target the resistance lines at 1.1800, 1.1850 and 1.1900.

USDCHF
Dominant bias: Bullish
A recent weakness in CHF has made USD/CHF go upwards, resulting in the current bullish bias. However, the bullish bias is currently precarious, for price merely consolidated last week, closing above the support line at 0.9700. Further consolidation this week would result in a neutral bias, unless price is able to breach the resistance level at 0.9750 to the upside, closing above it. On the other hand, a movement below the support level at 0.9550 would result in a bearish bias, which may happen in case CHF gathers bullish momentum (a possibility).

GBPUSD
Dominant bias: Bullish
GBPUSD is bullish, but there is a threat to the bullishness. As the market moved in a positive correlation with its EURUSD counterpart, its price was able to go up last week, testing the distribution territory at 1.3250, before there was a considerable pullback on Thursday and Friday. From the high of last week (1.3262), price dropped 210 pips, closing below the distribution territory at 1.3050 (hence the threat to the bullish bias). The threat may increase as price goes further southward, as the outlook on GBP pairs is bearish for this week. The accumulation territories at 1.3000 and 1.2950 could be breached easily.

USDJPY
Dominant bias: Bearish
Here is a bear market, with a clear Bearish Confirmation Pattern in the market. Price has been going southwards in a slow and steady manner, having lost 430 pips since July 11. The market bounced upwards on August 4, but that pales into insignificance when compared to the overall bearish bias. This week, the bearish journey would continue - owing to the ongoing bearish expectation certain JPY pairs. The initial target is the demand level at 110.50, then followed by the demand level at 110.00 which was also tested last week.

EURJPY
Dominant bias: Neutral
The neutrality on this trading instrument continued last week. Price attempted to stay above the supply zone at 131.00, but the attempt proved abortive. Had the attempt succeeded, a bullish signal would have been generated. The weakness that was seen in the last few days of last week has only put more emphasis on the neutrality of the market. One factor preventing a serious bearish movement in this market is the stamina in EUR, and therefore, there may not be a big pullback until EUR undergoes exponential weakness.

This forecast is concluded with the quote below:

“Be proud you're a trader. A trader is a man who earns what he gets and does not give or take the undeserved. A trader does not ask to be paid for his failures, nor does he ask to be loved for his flaws. A trader does not squander his body as fodder, or his soul as alms. Just as he does not give his work except in trade for material values, so he does not give the values of his spirit - his love, his friendship, his esteem - except in payment and in trade for human virtue, in payment for his own selfish pleasure, which he receives from men he can respect…” - Ayn Rand

Re: An Expert's Journal Of Weekly Trades by ituglobal(m): 11:06am On Aug 08, 2017
Technical Forecasts for CFDs (August 2017)

AUS200
Dominant bias: Neutral
In the last two months, this market has not moved in a directional mode. It has been moving only in a zigzag manner since then, in a quite choppy environment. This has led to the current neutrality on the market – which is supposed to continue in the next few weeks. The market is currently not attractive, and thus, no position is recommended until there is a directional movement, which would either push price above the resistance line at 5840.00, or below the support line at 5630.00. As long as price stays between the aforementioned resistance and support lines, the neutral bias on the market would be in place.

SPX500
Dominant bias: Bullish
SPX500 is bullish in the long-term and neutral in the short-term. While the overall bias remains bullish, price has consolidated in the last two weeks, though bull is still intent on pushing price further northwards. A movement above the resistance level at 2485.0 would result in more emphasis on the bullish bias; while a movement below the support level at 2400.0 would result in a threat to the bullish bias (but that would require a very serious and protracted selling pressure). Before a directional movement occurs, the current short-term consolidation would continue for several trading days.

US30
Dominant bias: Bullish
US30 is bullish, both in the long-term and the short-term. The bullishness in the market is strong – as emphasized by the Bullish Confirmation Pattern in it. Price was bullish both in June and July (gaining more than 500 points in July). August also started on a bullish note, and price has gone upwards so far, gaining additional 130 points along the way. This month, US30 is expected to continue its slow and steady journey to the north, raking in at least, another 200 points. There could be occasional pauses or shallow pullbacks along the way, but the market movement would generally be bullish.

GER30
Dominant bias: Bearish
This interesting market, fluctuated wildly in June, and became bearish in July. The wild fluctuation is still in place – only that it is happening in a context of a bearish bias. In July, price reached a high of 12679.0 and a low of 12081.9. Any bullish attempts in this market may be seen as opportunities to sell short at better prices. This August, price would first exceed the low of July (12081.9), and then go towards the demand level at 12000.0 which is the ultimate target for the month. However, that does not rule out the possibility that the ultimate target might be breached to the downside, especially in the face strong bearish pressures.

FRA40
Dominant bias: Bearish
FRA40 became bearish in June, after reaching the high of 5487.7 in May. That high has thus remained the highest price of FRA40 this year, and it could eventually be the high of the year. From the May high, till now, price has moved southward by 3,700 points, doing so in a slow and steady way in July. There is a Bearish Confirmation Pattern in the market, which means that the upwards bounce that has been witnessed in this month is not something to be taken seriously, for price would go further downwards, targeting the demand zones at 5079.0, which could even be breached to the downside. There is a strong demand zone at 5000.0.

Weekly Trading Forecasts for Major Pairs (August 14 - 18, 2017)

Here’s the market outlook for the week:

EURUSD
Dominant bias: Bullish
This pair is bullish, though it only consolidated last week, moving between the support line at 1.1700 and the resistance line at 1.1850. A movement above the aforementioned resistance line would put more emphasis on the bullish bias, while a movement below the support line could result in a threat to the bullish bias. On the other hand, further consolidation for the next several trading days would bring out a neutral bias on the market. No matter what happens this week, EUR would be seen going upwards versus certain currencies like AUD and NZD.

USDCHF
Dominant bias: Bearish
This is essentially a bear market, although there was a bearish effort between July 25 and August 8, it was not enough to override the overall bearish bias. After testing the resistance line at 0.9750, further bullish effort was rejected as price came down by 250 pips, closing below the resistance line at 0.9650 on Friday. This week, the market would endeavor to target the support levels at 0.9550 and 0.9500 (even possibly exceeding it).

GBPUSD
Dominant bias: Bearish
In the context of a downtrend, GBPUSD moved sideways last week. Price oscillated between the distribution territory at 1.3050 and the accumulation territory at 1.2950. A movement below the accumulation territory at 1.2950 would put more emphasis on the bearish mode of the market, while a movement above the distribution territories at 1.3050, 1.3100 and 1.3150 would result in a new bullish signal. This week, GBP also would be seen moving upwards versus certain currencies like AUD and NZD.

USDJPY
Dominant bias: Bearish
From the August high of 114.47, this trading instrument has dropped by 550 pips, testing the demand level at 109.00, and closing above the demand level on Friday. There is a strong Bearish Confirmation Pattern in the market, and thus, it is logical to conclude that price would continue going downwards this week, aiming at the demand levels of 109.00, 108.50 and 108.00. There could be transitory upward bounces along the way.

EURJPY
Dominant bias: Bearish
The long-expected bearishness on EURJPY is here. Last week, price dropped 250 pips, ending the recent neutrality on the market (which was in place for roughly three weeks), and bringing about a bearish bias. On Friday, price bounced upwards, closing slightly above the demand zone at 129.00; thus creating a wonderful opportunity to sell short at a better price, while the outlook on the market remains bearish. This week, price is expected to go lower, reaching the demand zones at 128.50, 128.00 and 127.50

Weekly Trading Forecasts for Major Pairs (August 21 - 25, 2017)

Here’s the market outlook for the week:

EURUSD
Dominant bias: Bullish
This pair is bullish in the long-term, but neutral in the short-term (for price has been going sideways for about two weeks). Price has been moving to and fro, within the resistance line at 1.1850 and the support line at 1.1650. As long as price moves to and fro within the resistance and support lines, the short-term neutrality would hold out. A movement above the resistance line of 1.1850 would make the long-term bullish bias more conspicuous, while a movement below the support line of 1.1650 would result in a bearish outlook. A movement below the aforementioned support line is more likely, owing to the expected weakness in EUR this week.

USDCHF
Dominant bias: Neutral
USDCHF has become a neutral market, as it has not assumed a protracted directional movement since early August. For a directional movement to start, there is a need for price to go above the resistance level at 0.9750 (thus creating a Bullish Confirmation Pattern), or the price would go below the support level at 0.9600 (thus creating a Bearish Confirmation Pattern). A movement to the upside is more likely this week, owing to an expectation of weakness in CHF and strength in USD.

GBPUSD
Dominant bias: Bearish
This market went downwards last week, testing the accumulation territory at 1.2850 several times, but not able to breach it to the downside. The outlook on GBP pairs is bearish for this week, and for this, the bearish journey on GBPUSD would continue as the accumulation territory at 1.2850 is breached to the downside. The next targets would be accumulation territories at 1.2800, 1.2750 and 1.2700.

USDJPY
Dominant bias: Bearish
From August 14 to 16, there were bullish attempts in this market, as price went upwards by 160 pips, almost reaching the supply level at 111.00. From the high of last week (110.93) price went down by 220 pips, moving briefly below the demand level at 109.00 and then closing above it on Friday. The bearish journey may continue this week, and therefore, the demand level at 109.00, 108.50 and 108.00 could be the next targets.

EURJPY
Dominant bias: Bearish
What happened on EURJPY last week was nearly similar to what happened on USDJPY. In the first few days of last week, price rallied in the context of a downtrend, testing the supply zone at 130.00 and then dropping smoothly by 200 pips, to test the demand zone at 128.00. Price has closed above the demand level at 128.00, but it is likely that it would test it again – probably breaching it to the downside - as it ontinues to go southwards this week.

Weekly Trading Forecasts for Major Pairs (August 28 – September 1, 2017)

Here’s the market outlook for the week:

EURUSD
Dominant bias: Bullish
This pair is neutral in the short-term, but bullish in the long-term. Price moved sideways from Monday to Thursday, and then broke upwards on Friday. Price gained roughly 150 pips that day, closing above the support line at 1.1900. The bullish movement could take price towards the resistance lines at 1.1950 and 1.2000. The resistance line at 1.2000 would try to impede any bullish movement beyond it, for the outlook on EURUSD is bearish for this week (following some visible bullish effort).

USDCHF
Dominant bias: Neutral
USDCHF is bearish in the long-term, and neutral in the near-term. The market consolidated mostly last week, save for the bearish breakout that was witnessed on August 25. Since the movement of this pair is dictated by whatever happens to EURUSD, it is expected that further downwards movement would be witnessed as long as EURUSD goes upwards. This can enable price to go below the support lines at 0.9550 and 0.9500, thus ending the ongoing near-term neutrality. A sharp drop in EURUSD price would bring about a meaningful rally on USDCHF.

GBPUSD
Dominant bias: Bearish
Since the beginning of this month, GBPUSD has lost about 450 pips, going southwards. There is a Bearish Confirmation Pattern in the market, which could not be threaten by the rally that took place at the end of last week. In fact, the rally would act as a good opportunity to sell short at slightly higher prices, for the outlook on GBPUSD is bearish for this week. In September, GBP pairs would be mostly bearish (though some rallies would be witnessed in certain cases).

USDJPY
Dominant bias: Bearish
This trading instrument was caught in an equilibrium phase last week – though the major outlook on the market is bearish. The weakness in USD has prevented a meaningful rally in the market, and bullish effort would continually be thwarted as price goes further downwards. Further bearish movement is anticipated this week, for the demand levels at 109.00, 108.50 and 108.00 would be aimed. Rallies should either be ignored or approached with caution.

EURJPY
Dominant bias: Bullish
Both in the short-term and the long-term, this cross is bullish. Some conspicuous rally attempt was started at the beginning of last week, and that culminated in a strong rally that was seen on Friday, as price closed at 130.45. A “buy” signal has already been generated, and that may enable price to go upwards by another 200 pips this week. However, the outlook on JPY pairs is bearish for this week and for September, and thus, whatever goes up on EURJPY cross will eventually come down.

GBPJPY
Dominant bias: Bearish
GBPJPY was quite choppy in July. Nonetheless a smooth bearish movement began in August, and price has been going steadily southwards since the beginning of the month, losing 700 pips. On Thursday and Friday, some bullish correction was seen, but that has paled into insignificance when compared to the overall bearish bias on the market. This week, price is supposed to continue its bearish movement. The demand zones at 140.50, 140.00 and 139.50 would be reached. They may even be exceeded.


This forecast is concluded with the quote below:

“Trading is a collaborative endeavour between you and the market. The market offers up opportunities on a regular never ending cycle and you decide what you will do with these opportunities. There is no enemy in this transaction; it is a symbiotic relationship and a failure to accept this is at the root of many of the problems that traders have.” – Chris Tate

Technical Reviews for Gold, Silver and Bitcoin (September 2017)

GOLD (XAUUSD)
Dominant Bias: Bullish
Gold trended smoothly upwards last month, reaching a low of 1251.28 and a high of 1325.75. On September 1, price made some bullish attempt, closing at 1324.89. The outlook on Gold is bullish for this month, owing to the Bullish Confirmation Pattern that is present in the market. Price is expected to gain at least 5,000 pips in September, as price journeys further northwards. There would be some corrections along the way, which would often be transitory.

SILVER (XAGUSD)
Dominant Bias: Bullish
Silver went bearish in the first few days of August, reaching the demand level at 16.1000. From that demand level, price went upwards, consolidating briefly and going further upwards. The outlook on Silver is bullish for this September, which has already started on a bullish note. This month, price could reach the supply levels at 18.0000, 18.5000 and ultimately, 19.0000. Normally, there would be some pauses and minor temporary corrections along the way.

BITCOIN (BTCUSD)
Dominant Bias: Bullish
Bitcoin gained over 200,000 pips in August, plus it moved further upwards on September 1, ending the day on a strong bullish note. The market tops at 4971.50 and then pulls back seriously (a minimum of 37,000 pips correction). The correction could continue for a few more trading days, but eventually price would rise again, regaining recent losses as it goes upwards, reaching the distribution territories at 4700.00, 4800.00 and 4900.00 (which were previously, and temporarily exceeded last week). Once the distribution territory at 4900.00 has been overcome again, price would then target other distribution territories at 5000.00, 5100.00 and 5200.00 in September. In spite of this expectation, there would be about two or three instances of strong pullbacks in September, which should not hold out long; for the overall movement would be bullish.

Weekly Trading Forecasts for Major Pairs (September 4 - 8, 2017)

Here’s the market outlook for the week:

EURUSD
Dominant bias: Bullish
EURUSD is bullish in the long-term and bearish in the short-term. Price went upwards on Monday and Tuesday, testing the resistance line at 1.2050. After that, a serious bearish correction took place as price went down by roughly 200 pips after the aforementioned resistance line was touched. This week, any rallies would meet a strong opposition at that resistance line of 1.2050. On the other hand, price may also target the support lines at 1.1850 and 1.1800.

USDCHF
Dominant bias: Neutral
This pair has been consolidating for 5 week – hence the current neutral bias on the market. Price has oscillated between the support level at 0.9450 and the resistance level at 0.9650. For the current neutral bias to end, there is a need for price to either cross the resistance level at 0.9750 to the upside or move below the support level 0.9450, staying below it. Either of this is expected to happen this week, for there would be a rise in momentum.

GBPUSD
Dominant bias: Bearish
GBPUSD is bearish in the long-term, though it consolidated throughout last week. There is an expectation of some bearish movement this week, which may make price test the accumulation territories at 1.2900, 1.2850 and 1.2800. However, given the current price action, some bullish effort may enable price to go upwards by around 100 – 150 pips, but the upwards movement would be limited.

USDJPY
Dominant bias: Bearish
USDJPY us generally bearish, but the recent bullish effort has resulted in a threat to the bearish trend. Last week, price tested the demand level at 108.50 and then bounced upwards, reaching the supply level at 110.50. On Friday, the market closed above the demand level at 110.00, and this has become a threat to the bearish outlook on the market. A movement above the supply level at 111.00 would result in a bullish bias; while a movement below the demand level at 109.00 would lay more emphasis in the overall bearish outlook.

EURJPY
Dominant bias: Bullish
This cross pair went upwards last week to test the supply zone at 131.50. After that, price got corrected lower, closing below the supply zone at 131.00. However, there is still a Bullish Confirmation Pattern in the market, which cannot be rendered invalid unless price drops by 200 pips from its current location. The movement of the market for this week would largely be determined by whatever happens to Yen.

GBPJPY
Dominant bias: Bearish
Over the long-term, GBPJPY is bearish, but a bullish signal has been generated in the 4-hour chart. The bullish signal was brought about by the fact that price gained about 230 pips last week, leading to a bullish outlook of this week. Further weakness in Yen may enable the supply zones at 143.50, 144.00 and 144.50, to be tested this week. Nonetheless, any display of stamina by Yen would impede the expected bullish movement.

Weekly Trading Forecasts for Major Pairs (September 11 - 15, 2017)

Here’s the market outlook for the week:

EURUSD
Dominant bias: Bullish
The pair went upwards last week, gaining about 200 pips. Price moved briefly above the resistance line at 1.2050, and then closed below it on Friday. There is a strong bullish outlook on EUR pairs this week, and therefore, the pair is supposed to continue to go upwards, gaining at least, another 200 pips. There would be pauses and occasional corrections along the way, but the movement this week would generally be bullish.

USDCHF
Dominant bias: Bearish
USDCHF is bearish, both in the long-term and the short-term. Price went downwards by 150 pips, tested and breached the resistance level at 0.9450. The pair is now under the resistance level at 0.9450, targeting the support levels at 0.9400, 0.9350 and 0.9300. USDCHF cannot be expected to rally meaningfully as long as EURUSD is strong. Therefore, the bias is bearish for this week, and long trades are not currently rational.

GBPUSD
Dominant bias: Bullish
GBPUSD has become bullish after rallying by more than 280 pips last week, testing the distribution territory at 1.3200, and closing slightly below it. There is a Bullish Confirmation Pattern in the market and price is thus expected to continue going upwards this week, reaching the distribution territories 1.3250, 1.3300 and 1.3350. These distribution territories may even be exceeded as price moves further upwards.

USDJPY
Dominant bias: Bearish
This currency trading instrument dropped about 210 pips last week, testing the demand level at 107.50 and closing above it. Since the high of July 11, price has dropped 660 pips and there is much room to drop more. Nonetheless, the outlook on JPY pairs is bullish for this week, and while the demand levels at 107.00, 106.50 and 106.00 could be reached, there is also a high possibility of a strong rally before the end of the week.

EURJPY
Dominant bias: Neutral
Unlike USDJPY, this cross rather consolidated last week, refusing to assume a bearish movement. One reason behind this is the fact that EUR is strong in its own right and its strength versus strength of JPY are almost equal (hence the short-term equilibrium phase in the market). Price is going to move out of balance this week, as JPY becomes weaker eventually, allowing this cross to rally massive before the end of the week.

GBPJPY
Dominant bias: Bearish
This trading instrument is bearish in the long-term, but neutral in the short-term. Price has done nothing except to zigzag upwards and downward. The market environment is quite choppy and it would be better to wait until it either goes above the supply zone at 142.60 (staying above it); or it goes the demand zone at 141.10 (staying below it). Until one of these two conditions are met, price would remain directionless in the short-term. The most probable direction this week is towards the north.

Weekly Trading Forecasts for Major Pairs (September 18 - 22, 2017)

Here’s the market outlook for the week:

EURUSD
Dominant bias: Neutral
The market is bullish in the long-term and neutral in the short-term. There was a slight bearish movement last week, but that was not significant. This week, price would either go above the resistance line at 1.2050, to strengthen the long-term bullish outlook; or price go below the support line at 1.1850 (which was tested last week), staying below it, to bring about a short-term bearish bias.

USDCHF
Dominant bias: Neutral
USDCHF is bearish in the long-term, but neutral in the short-term. From Monday to Wednesday, price went upwards by more than 200 pips, to test the resistance level at 0.9700. However, price began to come downwards on Thursday and Friday, thus rendering the short-term bullishness of the market vulnerable. To bring about a clean bullish bias, there is a need for the market to go upwards this week, staying above the resistance level at 0.9700; otherwise a strong bearish movement would result in a bearish bias. Movements between the resistance levels at 0.9700 and the support level at 0.9500 would enable the neutrality of the market to continue.

GBPUSD
Dominant bias: Bullish
This trading instrument has become seriously bullish. Price has gone upwards by 680 pips this month, and there is much room for it to go upwards this week. The instrument has closed just below the distribution territory at 1.3600 on Friday. The distribution territories at 1.3600, 1.3650 and 1.3700 would be reached this week (even if there would be any reversals later).

USDJPY
Dominant bias: Bullish
USDJPY is bullish in the short-term, but bearish in the long-term. The market went bearish in the first week of this month and went bullish last week, generating a bullish signal. There is a possibility that the supply levels at 111.00 (which was tested last week), and 111.50 would be reached. On the other hand, there is a stronger possibility that price would go bearish this week, so the demand levels at 110.00, 109.50 and 109.00 could be reached this week.

EURJPY
Dominant bias: Bullish
The market rose from the demand zone at 130.00, and went upwards to test the supply zone at 133.00. This has resulted in a bullish bias, and further bullish movement could be seen as price makes more attempt to continue going northwards. However, the outlook on JPY pairs is bearish for this week, and EURJPY may also experience a vivid pullback before the end of the week, and that is something that could bring about a bearish bias on the market.

GBPJPY
Dominant bias: Bullish
Last week, GBPJPY proved to be the strongest moving pair among JPY pairs. Price gained more than 820 pips, causing a huge Bullish Confirmation Pattern in the market. Further bullish movement could be seen this week, taking price towards another supply zones at 151.00 and 151.50. Then, there is a high probability of a large pullback before the end of this week, owing to a bearish expectation on JPY pairs.

Weekly Trading Forecasts for Major Pairs (September 25 - 29, 2017)

Here’s the market outlook for the week:

EURUSD
Dominant bias: Neutral
On September 18 and 19, this pair made a faint bullish attempt, only to come down on September 20 (and then went upwards on September 21 and 22). Since there is no conspicuous victory between bull and bear, the market remains in a neutral region. There is a need for price to go above the resistance line at 1.2050 (staying above it); or go below the support line at 1.1850 (staying below it). That is when there would be a directional bias.

USDCHF
Dominant bias: Bullish
This pair has generated a bullish signal, owing to a visible bullish effort that was made last week. Price first consolidated in the first few days of the week, and then rose upwards. Further rise is possible this week, as the resistance levels at 0.9700, 0.9750 and 0.9800 are targeted. A drop below the support level at 0.9650 would force the market back into a neutral territory, while a drop below the support level at 0.9500 would end in a strong bearish bias.

GBPUSD
Dominant bias: Bullish
GBPUSD consolidated throughout last week – albeit in the context of an uptrend. Price has gained roughly 700 pips this month, and there are chances to gain more. The distribution territory at 1.3650 (which was tested last week) would be breached to the upside, as price goes for other distribution territories for the rest of September. The outlook on GBP pairs remain bullish for this week.

USDJPY
Dominant bias: Bullish
This trading instrument went upwards by 150 pips last week, testing the supply level at 112.50 and then getting corrected a bit lower. There is a clean Bullish Confirmation Pattern in the market, which signals further bullish movement this week. The supply levels at 112.50, 113.00 and 113.50 might be reached before the end of the month. The demand levels at 111.50 and 111.00 would impede bearish attacks along the way.

EURJPY
Dominant bias: Bullish
This cross has become bullish in the long-term and in the short-term. Last week price went upwards by 190 pips, and then followed a shallow correction on Friday. Following the shallow correction would be a rise towards the north, as price slashes the supply zones at 134.00, 134.50 and 135.00 to the upside (possibly exceeding them). The outlook on JPY pairs is strongly bullish for this week.

GBPJPY
Dominant bias: Bullish
The market gained about 1,100 pips this month, before the bearish correction that was witnessed on Friday. Further bearish correction could take place, but it should not be significant enough to result in a bearish bias (JPY pairs are mostly expected to go upwards this week). The bearish correction would end up giving opportunities to join the existing bullish trend, at better prices. A gain of 200 – 300 pips is anticipated before the end of September.

Weekly Trading Forecasts for Major Pairs (September 2 - 6, 2017)

Here’s the market outlook for the week:

EURUSD
Dominant bias: Bearish
The market lost about 200 pips last week, went briefly below the support line at 1.1750 and then went above it, to close above the support line at 1.1800. There is already a Bearish Confirmation Pattern in the market, and further downwards movement is possible as price targets the support lines at 1.1800, 1.1750 and 1.1700 this week. This means that the shallow rally that was seen on Thursday and Friday may turn out to be opportunities to go short at slightly higher prices. The outlook on EUR pairs is strongly bearish for October; so EUR would be seen falling against other major currencies.

USDCHF
Dominant bias: Bullish
The bias on USDCHF is bullish in the short-term; and the bullishness is even precarious. This week, it may be possible for this pair to retain its bullishness as EURUSD slides southwards. However, the bullishness of the market would face a challenge from another quarter, which is the expected rally in CHF. CHF may begin to gain strength versus other currencies within the next two weeks, and that may make it difficult for USDCHF to experience a smooth bullish run. However, USD would also gain serious stamina around the end of October – a factor that may help USDCHF to become a clear winner at the end of the month.

GBPUSD
Dominant bias: Bearish
GBPUSD was bullish in September, but the bearish correction that was witnessed throughout last week (at least a movement of 150 pips to the south) has resulted in a “sell” signal in the market. The outlook on GBP pairs is bearish for this week, and thus, long trades are not recommended for now. GBPUSD could reach the accumulation territories at 1.3350, 1.3300 and 1.3250 within the next several trading days.

USDJPY
Dominant bias: Bullish
This trading instrument has gained at least 450 pips since September 11. The movement of the market would largely be determined by whatever happens to USD this month. A strong USD means price would continue going upwards, whether gradually or swiftly. On the other hand, a weak USD may cause a serious reversal on USDJPY as price goes downwards by at least 200 pips within the next few weeks.

EURJPY
Dominant bias: Bullish
This cross dropped southwards on Monday and Tuesday and then consolidated throughout the rest of the week. However, a closer look at the market reveals that bulls have subtly moved price in their favor, leading to an invalidation of recent bearish efforts. A movement above the supply zone at 134.00 would result in corroboration of the recent bullish bias; while a movement below the demand zone at 131.50 would result in a bearish bias.

GBPJPY
Dominant bias: Bullish
GBPJPY rose by 1,100 pips in September and got corrected on September 29, following the consolidation that took place in most part of last week. The correction was almost nothing when compared to the general bullish movement in that month. Price could continue to go upwards – but only in a limited way – owing to the expected weakness in GBP in October. This means that the market would go down by at least, 400 pips in October, thereby invalidating the current bullish bias.

Technical Reviews for Gold, Silver and Bitcoin (October 2017)

GOLD (XAUUSD)
Dominant Bias: Bearish
Early in September, Gold went upwards to reach a high of 1357.14 on September 8. Since then, Gold has lost at least, 8,200 pips, creating a huge Bearish Confirmation Pattern in the market. Rallies in recent times have been transitory, offering interesting opportunities to sell short at slightly higher prices. This month, price has resumed its bearish movement, making shallow rally attempts; but only to go further southwards. This kind of price action is expected to continue for most part of October, as price targets the support levels at 1270.00, 1260.00 and 1250.00.

SILVER (XAGUSD)
Dominant Bias: Bearish
The movement on Silver is quite similar to the movement on Gold (for they are positively correlated). In September, price initially went northwards, reaching a high of 18.2034. Since then, price has lost more than 15,400 pips, and that is just the beginning, for the market has been bearish so far in the month of October. Like Gold, rally attempts have been faint and they have only led to more bearish movements. The bearish bias on the market remains valid and the current price behavior will most likely continue. The next targets for bears are the demand levels at 16.5000, 16.3000 and 16.1000.

BITCOIN (BTCUSD)
Dominant Bias: Bullish
Bitcoin has been quite choppy and volatile. Price lost close to 190,000 pips, reaching a low of 2971.05. Since then, a bullish movement has begun, and price has gained more than 145,000 pips, thus restoring the recent bullish outlook on the market. This month has opened on a bullish note and further northward movement is anticipated. Thus the next targets are the distribution territories at 4500.00, 4700.00 and 4900.00, which would be reached within the next several weeks. There would be occasional dips along the way, and would only pave way for further upwards movements.

Weekly Trading Forecasts for Major Pairs (October 9 - 13, 2017)

Here’s the market outlook for the week:

EURUSD
Dominant bias: Bearish
The pair has been going southward since September 25, having lost about 200 pips. Price moved briefly below the support line at 1.1700, but closed above it on Friday. However, rallies in this kind of market situation often bring good opportunities to sell short at slightly higher prices, and that is exactly what is expected. Another opportunity to go short would emerge this week, as price turns southwards again.

USDCHF
Dominant bias: Bullish
USDCHF has managed to stay bullish for the past few weeks – although price has not gone upwards significantly either. The market was trudging upwards, sauntered above the resistance level at 0.9800, but eventually closed below it on October 6. This week, USDCHF would maintain its bullishness, but it would not be able to move northward significantly until CHF is weakened. The bullishness would also be sustained as long as EURUSD remains bearish.

GBPUSD
Dominant bias: Bearish
This market has been going downwards in the past two weeks, and price has come down by 470 pips since then (having come down by 320 pips last week). There is a huge Bearish Confirmation Pattern in the market, and the accumulation territory at 1.3050 has already been tested. The bearish movement can continue this week as other accumulation territories at 1.3000 (a strong accumulation area), 1.2950, and 1.2900 are tested. However, there could be some meaningful rally before the end of the week.

USDJPY
Dominant bias: Bullish
Albeit it consolidated throughout last week; the outlook on this market remains bullish. There could soon be an end to the short-term consolidation, as price goes above the supply level at 114.00, or below the demand level at 111.00. A movement above the supply level at 114.00 would help strengthen the existing bullish bias; while a movement below the demand level at 111.00 would threaten it.

EURJPY
Dominant bias: Bullish
This cross is basically bullish in the long-term, but neutral in the short-term. Price did practically nothing last week, save moving sideways in the context of an uptrend. Nonetheless, a closer look at the market reveals that bears are about to gain upper hands, and thus, price could go towards the demand zones at 131.50 and 131.00 this week. The bias would not turn bearish until another demand zone at 130.00 is breached to the downside.

GBPJPY
Dominant bias: Bearish
GBPJPY moved south by about 360 pips last week, resulting in a Bearish Confirmation Pattern in the market. The outlook on the market remains bearish for this week, as price goes towards other demand zones at 147.00, 146.50 and 146.00 (and possibly exceeding them). However, there could be a serious rally before the end of the week, which cannot render the current bearish bias invalid unless the market rallies by a minimum of 400 pips.

This forecast is concluded with the quote below:

Weekly Trading Forecasts for Major Pairs (October 16 - 20, 2017)

Here’s the market outlook for the week:

EURUSD
Dominant bias: Bullish
This pair went upwards last week, creating a short-term bullish signal, before price got corrected lower on Friday. This week, a movement above the resistance line at 1.1900 would reinforce the bullish bias (an unlikely event). On the other hand, a movement below the support lines at 1.1750 and 1.1700 would result in a bearish bias. The downwards movement is more likely because the outlook on EUR is bearish for this week.

USDCHF
Dominant bias: Bullish
USDCHF is precariously bullish. Price did not do much last week, save movement of about 50 pips to the downside. The situation of the market is currently dicey, but price movement would be largely determined by whatever happens to EURUSD. A weak EURUSD may cause the current bullish outlook on USDCHF to be sustained; otherwise a smooth southward journey would be witnessed this week.

GBPUSD
Dominant bias: Bullish
There is a “buy” signal on the Cable – with a Bullish Confirmation Pattern in the market. Price gained over 210 pips last week, and there is much room for price to go upwards this week, reaching the distribution territories 1.3300, 1.3350 and 1.3400. The “buy” signal would not become invalid unless the accumulation territories at 1.3150 and 1.3100 are breached to the downside.

USDJPY
Dominant bias: Bullish
This instrument is bullish in the long-term, and bearish in the short-term. Price went downwards last week but not much (closing below the supply level at 112.00 on Friday). There would be a bearish signal when price goes downwards by 200 pips – and that may also bring about a bearish bias in the long-term as well. Should price go upwards from here, the extant bullish bias would be sustained.

EURJPY
Dominant bias: Bullish.
The market went upwards in the last few days, testing the supply zone at 133.50. Then the market began to go downwards on Thursday, losing about 120 pips. The bias is bullish in the long-term, and would get strengthen as price goes northwards. There are demand zones at 132.00, 131.50 and 131.00 which would try to impede further bearish movement (for the bias would turn bearish when price goes below the demand zone at 131.00).


GBPJPY
Dominant bias: Bearish
GBPJPY consolidated throughout last week, and the consolidation could go on this week until there is a rise in momentum. Price would either go above the supply zone at 150.00 (resulting in a bullish outlook); or price could go below the demand zone at 147.00, staying below it (which would put more emphasis on the bearishness of the market). As long as price stays below the aforementioned supply zone or above the demand zone, it would be deemed that the consolidation is ongoing, albeit in the context of an uptrend.

Weekly Trading Forecasts for Major Pairs (October 23 - 27, 2017)

Here’s the market outlook for the week:

EURUSD
Dominant bias: Neutral
Price went down on Monday and Tuesday, went up on Wednesday and Thursday, and came down again on Friday. This kind of erratic, zigzag behavior has resulted in a neutral bias on the market. This week, a rise in momentum is expected, for price could rise above the resistance line at 1.1900; or price could fall below the support line at 1.1700. As long as price stays within the two boundaries, the outlook on the market would remain neutral. A movement to the downside is, however, more likely this week, owing to a strong bearish outlook on EUR pairs.

USDCHF
Dominant bias: Bullish
This pair has gained roughly 110 pips this month – making further bullish effort last week. Price has tested the resistance level at 0.9850, and it would test it again, breach it to the upside and then target another resistance level at 0.9900. This expectation would be easily realized as EURUSD slides further southwards (a likelihood), and as USD gains stamina. The support level at 0.9800 could be tested briefly despite bullish effort is being made.

GBPUSD
Dominant bias: Bearish
The Cable dropped some 190 pips last week, testing the accumulation territory at 1.3100 before the shallow rally that was seen on October 20. The rally could turn out to be an opportunity to go short at a slightly higher price, for there is a Bearish Confirmation Pattern in the market. This week, the accumulation territories at 1.3150, 1.3100 and 1.3050 could be reached (especially as long as USD has some stamina in it).

USDJPY
Dominant bias: Bullish
Early last week, USDJPY began to make some attempt to go northward, and the attempt was successful, for its price went upwards by 170 pips last week, reaching the supply level at 113.50. Further northwards movement is possible this week (a strong US dollar versus a weak Yen), and thus, the targets for bulls are located at the supply levels of 114.00 and 114.50. A very strong northwards movement could also cause another supply level at 115.00 to be tested.

EURJPY
Dominant bias: Bullish.
This trading instrument consolidated in the first few days of last week, and then broke out northwards. The market went upwards by close to 200 pips, closing above the demand zone at 133.50 on Friday. This week, further upward movement is more likely than a downwards correct. A downward correction would be shallow and would get challenged by the demand zone at 133.00. Apart from this this, price is expected to reach the supply zones at 134.00, 134.50 and 135.00 before the end of the week.

GBPJPY
Dominant bias: Bullish
The biases on this volatile cross used to be neutral in the short-term and bullish in the long-term. Nonetheless, a bullish signal has been generated in the 4-hour chart, to corroborate the bullishness on higher time horizons. The outlook on the cross is bullish (as it is on certain other JPY pairs). The supply zones at 150.00, 150.50 and 151.00 could be reached this week. There are demand zones at 149.00 and 148.50: a formidable challenge to bears.

This forecast is concluded with the quote below:

“Following a detailed plan is important because it removes any underlying emotions from the decision-making process and thus enforces ongoing discipline in our trading activities. The less the trade becomes about us and the more it becomes about our rules and plan, the more we have steered ourselves towards achieving success in the markets on a consistent basis. The plan tells us what to do, as opposed to us looking at a chart and guessing what we should do.” – Sam Evans

Weekly Trading Forecasts for Major Pairs (October 30 - November 3, 2017)

Here’s the market outlook for the week:

EURUSD
Dominant bias: Bearish
The market consolidated from Monday to Wednesday and then dropped sharply on Thursday and Friday. There is a Bearish Confirmation Pattern in the market, which makes further drop a possibility. Since the outlook on EUR pairs remains bearish for this week (just as it was bearish for last week), the support lines at 1.1550, 1.1500 and 1.1450 are the next targets. However, the market would start rallying sometime in November, for the outlook on EUR pairs is bullish for November (especially starting from next week).

USDCHF
Dominant bias: Bullish
USD/CHF gained 200 pips last week, moving briefly above the strong resistance level at 1.0000, but closed below it on October 27. The parity that was briefly achieved by USD and CHF would be achieved again this week, because the outlook on the pair is bullish for this week. USD is supposed to remain fairly strong, and thus, price would reach the resistance levels at 1.0000, 1.0050 and 1.0100 this week. But the bullish domination would not hold out very long in November, because it is expected that EURUSD would rally in that month, and this would cause a selling pressure on USDCHF.

GBPUSD
Dominant bias: Bearish
This trading instrument is slightly bearish. It has been engaged in short-term upswings and downswings for about two weeks – a condition that is expected to continue until a strong volatility arises in the market. The volatility would propel price above the distribution territory at 1.3300 or below the accumulation territory at 1.3000. In November, there would be strong movements on GBP pairs, which would be bullish in most cases.
USDJPY
Dominant bias: Bullish
Although there was no strong northwards movement last week, this pair is bullish. Effort to stay above the supply level at 114.00 has been thwarted, but a lot of activity remains around that supply level. A closer look at the market reveals that bulls are still strongly determined to push the pair upwards, and that is what they will likely achieve this week, for the outlook on certain JPY pairs is bullish for this week.

EURJPY
Dominant bias: Bearish
EUR pairs became mostly bearish in the last few days of last week, and EURJPY was not spared either. The market initially made some bullish effort, but further bullish movement was rejected at the supply zone of 134.50 (which was tested several times, without being breached). From that supply zone, price plummeted below the supply zone at 132.00 (about 260 pips). The demand zones at 131.50 and 131.00 could be tested before price begins to rally this week. The rally would continue until a fresh opposition is met at the supply zone of 134.50.

GBPJPY
Dominant bias: Bullish
This cross is bearish in the short-term, and bullish in the long-term. From October 23 to 25, some bullish attempt was made, but price came down in October 26 and 27. The outlook on the market is bullish for this week and for most of the month of November. Therefore, price would eventually rally, gaining at least 400 pips in November. There are demand zones at 148.50, and 148.00, which could be tried before price rallies eventually.

Technical Reviews for Gold, Silver and Bitcoin (November 2017)

GOLD (XAUUSD)
Dominant Bias: Bearish
Gold is a choppy market, though movement has generally been bearish. Last month, price went upward to test the resistance level at 1305.78, before dropping thousands of pips. Any rallies that are seen on Gold would be in the context of a downtrend, and as such, would not invalidate the current bearishness in the market, unless the resistance level at 1300.00 is breached to the upside, which would require exceptionally strong buying pressure. This month, the support levels at 1260.00, 1240.00 and 1220.00 may be reached.

SILVER (XAGUSD)
Dominant Bias: Bearish
Since Gold and Silver are usually correlated, Silver moved upwards in the first half of October, gaining 9,000 pips. The market reached the high of the month at 17.4594 (October 15), and then began to move southwards, underlining the recent bearishness in the market. This month, any rallies should be taken as opportunities to seek short trades, because the current bearishness in the market cannot be ended until price is able to go above the high of October (17.4594). In November, at least a southwards movement of 6,000 pips is expected.

BITCOIN (BTCUSD)
Dominant Bias: Bullish
There is a very strong Bullish Confirmation Pattern on Bitcoin. In October, price reached a low of 4143.64 and a high of 6460.62. Price gained more than 210,000 pips in October, and it started November on a strong bullish note. Another 100,000 pips have been gained this week, as price topped at 7438.49 on November 2, before retracing downwards. Nevertheless a large pullback of 50,000 – 100,000 pips is anticipated this month, after which price would assume its journey to the north. The main target for the month is the distribution territory at 7500.00, although there is a high probability that the main target would be exceeded.

Weekly Trading Forecasts for Major Pairs (November 6 – 10, 2017)

Here’s the market outlook for the week:

EURUSD
Dominant bias: Bearish
The market went sideways from Monday to Wednesday and moved further south on Friday (in the context of a downtrend). The bearish movement would continue this week, owing to a bearish outlook on EUR pairs for the week. Thus, price would test the support lines at 1.1600 (which has been nearly tested), 1.1550 and 1.1500. The resistance lines at 1.1700 and 1.1750 ought to do a good job limiting rally effort.

USDCHF
Dominant bias: Bullish
Although this pair did not move seriously last week, it was able to maintain its bullishness. On Friday, price closed above the psychological level at 1.0000 - ready to go higher from there. The outlook on USD pairs is bullish (most USD pairs would move slightly or significantly upwards) this week, and this is what enable the pair to go further upwards; as well as the expected weakness in EURUSD. Thus the resistance levels at 1.0050, 1.0100 and 1.0150 would be tested this week and next week.

GBPUSD
Dominant bias: Bearish
This instrument went upward from Monday to Wednesday, gaining 160 pips and testing the distribution territory at 1.3300. Further bullish movement was rejected at that distribution territory, as price plummeted on Thursday, losing 250 pips and reaching the accumulation territory at 1.3050. The accumulation territory (though it has done a good job to prevent further fall), would give way as price aims for other accumulation territories at 1.3000 (a strong territory), 1.2950 and 1.2900. The outlook on GBP pairs is bearish for this week.

USDJPY
Dominant bias: Bullish
On October 30, USDJPY went downwards, but it rallied on October 31 and then consolidated for the rest of the week. There are demand levels at 113.00 and 112.50, which should try to impede a bearish bias from forming. The market could go upwards this week, reaching the supply levels at 114.50 and 115.00 (and even exceeding that). As long as USD is strong, a vivid pullback may not happen on the market.

EURJPY
Dominant bias: Bearish
In the context of a downtrend, this cross rallied 160 pips, after testing the demand zone at 131.50. The rally has turned out to be a good opportunity to sell short at slightly higher prices, for price has started coming downwards from the high of last week (133.13), closing below the supply zone at 132.50 on November 3. As long as EUR is weak, this cross would be having difficulty going upwards. In fact, price may go southwards more than 150 pips this week.

GBPJPY
Dominant bias: Bearish
Price is bearish in the short-term, and neutral in the long-term. Just like GBPUSD, it went upwards by 270 pips from Monday to Wednesday, topped at 151.92 on Thursday, and then dropped like stone (310 pips). There is now a Bearish Confirmation Pattern in the market, and given the bearish outlook on GBP pairs, GBP/JPY is more likely to drop further than to rally significantly this week. The next targets for bears are the demand zones at 149.00, 148.50 and 148.00.

Weekly Trading Forecasts for Major Pairs (November 13 - 17, 2017)

Here’s the market outlook for the week:

EURUSD
Dominant bias: Bearish
The market consolidated last week, and made some bullish effort on Thursday and Friday (in the context of a downtrend). There is a bullish signal in the short-term, and once the resistance line at 1.1750 is breached to the upside, the bias would turn bullish. The outlook on EUR pairs is bullish for this week, and thus, other resistance lines that would be reached are located around 1.1800 and 1.1850.

USDCHF
Dominant bias: Bullish
This pair is bullish in the long-term, but it is becoming bearish in the short-term. Basically, price moved sideways from Monday to Wednesday and then moved lower on Thursday. Further bearish movement is possible this week, and the targets are the support levels at 0.9950, 0.9900 and 0.9850. However, there would not be a very serious bearish movement this week because USD would retain some of its stamina this week.

GBPUSD
Dominant bias: Neutral
GBPUSD is quite choppy and volatile, characterized by short-term upswings and downswings with no directional movement. This week or next, it is possible for price to either go above the distribution territory at 1.3300 (creating a strong bullish bias); or it would go below the accumulation territory at 1.3050 (creating a strong bearish bias). Strong directional movements are anticipated on other GBP pairs this week

USDJPY
Dominant bias: Bullish
This pair is bullish in the long-term, but bearish in the short-term. As soon as price tested the supply level at 114.50, it went downwards by 100 pips (throughout last week), closing slightly below the supply level at 113.50. Should price move southwards this week, the demand levels at 113.00 and 112.50 would be reached. A northwards movement above the supply levels at 114.00, 114.50 and 115.00 would help strengthen the recent bullish bias.

EURJPY
Dominant bias: Neutral
This is a neutral market. Price went downwards last week, testing the demand zone at 131.50, before bouncing upwards by 100 pips, to test the supply zone at 132.50. As long as price oscillates between the supply zone at 133.00 and the demand zone at 131.50, the neutrality in the market would be valid. Once the aforementioned supply zone or demand zone is breached, a directional bias would form.

GBPJPY
Dominant bias: Neutral
This cross has been performing what can be called downswings and upswings for several weeks, with no perpetual trending movement. In October price reached a high of 151.38 and a low of 146.93. The current neutral phase in the market would not be over until the supply zone at 151.50 is breached to the upside; or until the demand zone at 146.50 is breached to the downside. Until then, strategies that take advantage of short-term swings in this market would thrive.

Re: An Expert's Journal Of Weekly Trades by ituglobal(m): 9:54pm On Nov 18, 2017
Weekly Trading Forecasts for Major Pairs (November 20 - 24, 2017)

Here’s the market outlook for the week:

EURUSD
Dominant bias: Bullish
A bullish signal was generated on this pair last week, as the market gained 200 pips, to test the resistance line at 1.1850. After that, price began to experience some bearish correction, which made it close below the resistance line at 1.1800 on Friday. The bullish signal in the market remains valid, and it cannot be invalidated unless the market goes down by 200 pips from here. This week, the resistance lines at 1.1800, 1.1850 and 1.1900 could be reached.

USDCHF
Dominant bias: Bearish
This pair went downwards from Monday to Wednesday, jumped upwards on Thursday, and then went downwards again on Friday, closing at 0.9883 (on that very day). There is a Bearish Confirmation Pattern in the market, and the support level at 0.9850 may be tested easily, breached to the downside, as price goes further downwards towards other support levels at 0.9800, and 0.9750 (the last target of the week).

GBPUSD
Dominant bias: Neutral
The bias on Cable is essentially neutral, for price has not gone in a strong directional mode in the past 4 weeks. There is a distribution territory at 1.3300 and an accumulation territory at 1.3050 (as space of 250 pips). These distribution and accumulation territories have proven to be able to withstand bearish and bullish pressures in recent times; and as long as price remains within them, the ongoing neutrality would remain. Once either of the territory is breached, a directional bias would occur.
USDJPY
Dominant bias: Bearish
USDJPY went sideways on November 13, and began to come down from November 14. Price went down by 160 pips last week, testing the demand level at 112.00 on November 17 (before the close of the market). This week, it is possible that price would go beneath the demand level at 112.00, and aim for another demand level at 111.50. Nonetheless, there would possibly be a strong bullish reversal before the end of the week.

EURJPY
Dominant bias: Neutral
The fact is, the EURJPY cross has been consolidating since the beginning of October (in the long-term). In the short-term, there are short-term bearish and bullish swings in the market, with no directional bias. For example, price went upwards last week, on Monday and Tuesday; but the bearish movement of Wednesday, Thursday and Friday has rendered the bullish movement of Monday and Tuesday invalid. The current neutrality would continue until price goes upwards by at least, 300 pips; or until it plummets by at least 300 pips. Any pip movement below that would not be sufficient to end the current neutrality.

GBPJPY
Dominant bias: Bearish
This is also a choppy and equilibrium market, for things have gone slightly bearish. The market would need to reach the demand zone at 146.50, for the bearish signal to become stronger in the market. On the other hand, a breach of the supply zone at 150.00 would swiftly bring an end to the bearish bias. A movement to the upside is more likely this week, since the outlook on some JPY pairs is bullish for the week.

Re: An Expert's Journal Of Weekly Trades by ituglobal(m): 1:16pm On Nov 26, 2017
Weekly Trading Forecasts for Major Pairs (November 27 – December 1, 2017)

Here’s the market outlook for the week:

EURUSD
Dominant bias: Bullish
This pair went upwards last week, after moving sideways on Monday and Tuesday. Price gained 210 pips, closing above the support line at 1.1900 and targeting the resistance line at 1.1950. Then another resistance level at 2.0000 (a psychological line) would be reached and possibly broken to the upside in December, as price goes further upwards. The outlook on EUR pairs is bullish for December

USDCHF
Dominant bias: Bearish
The market has come down by 220 pips in November 2017 – going downwards by 100 pips this week alone. There is a huge Bearish Confirmation Pattern in the market, which means price could continue going southwards, reaching the support levels at 0.9750, 0.9700 and 0.9650. These targets ought to be reached within the next several trading days, for there cannot be a meaningful rally in the market as long as EURUSD is strong.

GBPUSD
Dominant bias: Bullish
There is a bullish signal on GBPUSD, which has come about as a result of desperate effort by bulls, to price upward against bearish forces in the market. There is a possibility that price could reach the distribution territories at 1.3350, 1.3400 and 1.3450 this week (and in December). However, price would eventually fall seriously in December because the outlook on GBP pairs is strongly bearish for that month. Long trades may not make much sense on GBP pairs in December.
USDJPY
Dominant bias: Bearish
This trading instrument has lost about 300 pips in November, after testing the supply level at 114.50 on November 6. The market may continue going downwards, reaching the demand levels at 111.00, 110.50 and 110.00 (providing that the selling pressure is great in the market). However, things would eventually turn bullish this week, for the outlook on JPY pairs is bullish for the week. There would be a bullish reversal that would end up generating a “buy” signal.

EURJPY
Dominant bias: Bullish
This cross is bullish in the short-term and neutral in the long-term. The cross went sideways on November 20 – 23. Since bullish movements are anticipated on JPY pairs this week, it is interesting that EURJPY has already started the journey. Price managed to close above the demand zone at 133.00 on Friday, and would gain another 200 pips before the end of the week. Once the supply level at 134.00 is breached to the upside, the bias on the market would also become bullish in the long-term.

GBPJPY
Dominant bias: Neutral
GBPJPY is not an attractive market at the present. It has been consolidating for the past several weeks, and the consolidation would continue until there is a sustained breakout in the market. The most likely direction this week (and probably in December), would be northwards. The bias on the market would turn bullish once price goes above the supply zone at 150.00, which would not be an easy goal to achieve, since GBP would sometimes become weak in itself.

This forecast is concluded with the quote below:

Technical Reviews for Gold and Silver (December 2017)

GOLD (XAUUSD)
Dominant Bias: Bearish
Gold is bearish in the short-term, and neutral in the long-term. In the long-term, price consolidated throughout November; but in the short term, the last week of November has been bearish. In the short-term, price has dropped seriously enough to generate a clean bearish bias on the market, and as price goes further southwards, a Bearish Confirmation Pattern would spread across the market. This month, upwards bounces should be temporary, as general movements in this month ought to be bearish. Thus, the current upwards bounce would end in further bearish movement, as price targets the support levels at 1260.00, 1250.00 and 1240.00 in December.

SILVER (XAGUSD)
Dominant Bias: Bearish
Silver is bearish, both in the short-term and in the long-term. The market essentially consolidated from November 1 to 28, and then dropped massively last week, shedding 8,000 pips from the high of the week (17.1895). There is a Bearish Confirmation Pattern in the market, which shows a possibility of the market journeying more and more towards the south. While there would be transitory indecisions and rallies along the way, price is expected to reach the demand levels at 16.2000, 16.0000 and 15.8000 in December.

Re: An Expert's Journal Of Weekly Trades by ituglobal(m): 1:16pm On Dec 02, 2017
Weekly Trading Forecasts for Major Pairs (December 4 - 8, 2017)

Here’s the market outlook for the week:

EURUSD
Dominant bias: Bullish
The bullish bias on EURUSD was challenged last week, as price was pulled towards the support line at 1.1800. However, bulls managed to push price upwards, thus saving the bullish bias. Price is currently close to the resistance line at 1.1900, and it is bent on breaching it to the upside as soon as possible. The resistance line at 1.2000 is the ultimate target; although bulls would meet a fierce opposition at the resistance line.

USDCHF
Dominant bias: Bearish
From Monday to Wednesday, this pair went upwards in the context of a downtrend, testing the price level at 0.9850, going above it briefly and then coming downwards to move below it. USDCHF cannot have a meaningful rally as long as EURUSD is able to showcase its stamina. The rally that took place in the first few days of last week has proven to be a good opportunity to sell short at a better price, as price plummeted on Friday, putting more emphasis on the ongoing bearish outlook. Further bearish movement is expected this week.

GBPUSD
Dominant bias: Bullish
The persistent bullish effort on Cable - against all odds – has already paid off. The bullish upwards movement in the market has been slow, gradual, and steady. Since November 14, price has gained more than 400 pips, roughly testing the distribution territory at 1.3549. Although price has retraced lower since then, that is just a temporary thing, it would go upwards again, targeting the distribution territories at 1.3500, 1.3550 and 1.3600.
USDJPY
Dominant bias: Bearish
After testing the supply level at 114.50, this trading instrument went downwards by 340 pips in November, creating a Bearish Confirmation Pattern in the market. However, the rally that took placed almost throughout last week nearly posed a threat to the bearishness in the market. The reneging rally met a challenge on Friday and the market pulled back considerably. This week, price could possible reach the demand levels at 112.00 and 111.50. But that does not completely rule out the possibility of some rally.

EURJPY
Dominant bias: Bullish
This cross is quite choppy, showing some indecision in the long-term, and showing some bullishness in the short-term. The market went downwards on November 27 and 28, and then started going upwards on November 29 (after testing the demand zone at (132.00). The market reached the supply zone at 134.00 and then closed just below the supply zone at 133.50. It is thus possible for the supply zones at 133.50, 134.00 and 134.50 to be reached this week. As long as the demand zone at 131.50 is not breached to the downside, this short-term bullish bias cannot be rendered invalid.

GBPJPY
Dominant bias: Bullish
GBPJPY rallied massively last week, putting an end to the recent indecision that had held out for weeks. From the demand level at 147.00, price shot skywards by 540 pips, before the slight bearish retracement that was witnessed on December 1. This week, bulls would be able to push price further upwards. The targets are the supply zones at 151.50, 152.00 and 152.50 would easily be reached, enabling the ongoing bullish bias to become stronger.

This forecast is concluded with the quote below:

Re: An Expert's Journal Of Weekly Trades by ituglobal(m): 9:21am On Dec 10, 2017
Weekly Trading Forecasts for Major Pairs (December 11 - 15, 2017)

Here’s the market outlook for the week:

EURUSD
Dominant bias: Bearish
The market is bearish in the short-term, for price went southwards throughout last week, moving briefly below the support line at 1.1750 and then closing above that support line on Friday. Other support lines at 1.1700 and 1.1650 could be tested this week, provided there is a serious selling pressure in the market. There are resistance lines at 1.1850, 1.1900 and 1.1950, which should impede serious rallies.

USDCHF
Dominant bias: Bullish
This pair is bullish in the short-term, as it went northwards throughout last week, moving briefly above the resistance level at 0.9950 and then closing below that resistance level on Friday. Other resistance levels at 1.0000 and 1.0050 could be tested this week, provided there is a serious buying pressure in the market. There is also a strong possibility that the pair would plummet seriously before the end of this week, owing to a possible display of stamina in CHF. Most major currencies would drop against CHF this week (and USD possibly included).

GBPUSD
Dominant bias: Bullish
The bias on the Cable is bullish, but the bias is very weak, owing to some bearish attempt to pull down the price last week. A movement below the accumulation territory at 1.3250 would result in a bearish signal being generated, while a movement above the distribution territory at 1.3550 would result in putting more emphasis on the recent bullish signal. One of these scenarios would materialize this week.

USDJPY
Dominant bias: Bullish
From Monday to Wednesday, USDJPY went downwards; but it started moving upwards on that very Wednesday, to gain 150 pips, and to test the supply level at 113.50 by Friday (closing around that supply level). This has resulted in a Bullish Confirmation Pattern in the market, which means price would break the supply level at 113.50 to the upside, as it targets other supply levels at 114.00 and 114.50.

EURJPY
Dominant bias: Neutral
This trading instrument is quite choppy and completely neutral. There are wild upswings and downswings in the market as it is completely directionless. The current market condition would continue for some more days until price is able to stay above the supply zone at 134.50, or below the demand zone at 131.50. This is a condition that requires a high volatility and a perpetual movement in one direction. The condition would be met before the end of this month.

GBPJPY
Dominant bias: Bullish
The outlook on this cross is bullish. From November 4 to 6, the cross went downwards, and then rallied. The rally has saved the ongoing bullish outlook on the market, despite the bearish correction that took place on November 8 (which might turn out to be an opportunity to buy long at a better price). This week, price would go upwards again, reaching the supply zones at 152.00, 152.50 and 153.00.

Weekly Trading Forecasts for Major Pairs (December 18 - 22, 2017)

Here’s the market outlook for the week:

EURUSD
Dominant bias: Neutral
This pair is bearish in the short-term, and neutral in the long-term. Price has gradually come down since November 27, and it is now around the support line at 1.1750, and it may go lower to test other support lines at 1.1700 and 1.1650 this week. There would be some selling pressure on the market, which could hold throughout December. A meaningful rally would be somewhat difficult.

USDCHF
Dominant bias: Bearish
Although USDCHF is bearish in the short-term (and neutral in the long-term), it is likely that price would go upwards, moving above the resistance levels at 0.9950 and 1.0000, and therefore erasing the short-term bearishness. This pair would be able to enjoy some form of bullishness as long as EURUSD is under selling pressure, and this is a situation that may hold out for most part of December.

GBPUSD
Dominant bias: Bearish
The Cable is also slightly bearish in the short-term, but neutral in the long-term. A movement towards the accumulation territories at 1.3300 and 1.3250 would help strengthen the extant short-term bearishness; while a movement above the distribution territories at 1.3450 and 1.3500 would halt the bearishness. It is possible for the overall neutrality to end when the market assumes a protracted directional movement.

USDJPY
Dominant bias: Neutral
The market went sideways on Monday and Tuesday, and then began to come down on Wednesday. If price had not closed above the demand level at 112.50, there would have been a “sell” signal in the short-term. The neutrality in the market is vivid, and will end once price goes above the supply level at 114.00; or it goes below the demand level at 111.50. This condition may not be fulfilled again this month, because the kind of volatility that would bring this about may not happen this month.

EURJPY
Dominant bias: Neutral
EURJPY is currently a good example of a consolidating market. The consolidation has been in place since September 2017, and that is the how the situation would be until year 2017 is over. However, there are short-term signals that are brought about by temporary upswings and downswings in the market, which give excellent opportunities to buy dips and sell rallies as price oscillates along the way.

GBPJPY
Dominant bias: Bearish
This cross is bearish in the short-term (but neutral in the long-term). Price went downwards by more than 200 pips, creating a Bearish Confirmation Pattern in the market. The bearish movement is expected to continue as price targets the demand zones at 149.50, 149.00 and 148.50, which would be reached this week or next. There could be rallies along the way, but they are not expected to bring about a bullish bias.

Re: An Expert's Journal Of Weekly Trades by ituglobal(m): 10:26am On Dec 24, 2017
Weekly Trading Forecasts for Major Pairs (December 25 - 29, 2017)

Here’s the market outlook for the week:

EURUSD
Dominant bias: Bullish
This pair is bullish in the short-term, but neutral in the long-term. Price rose from the support line at 1.1750 and tested the resistance line at 1.1900 (a movement of 150 pips). However, price closed below the resistance line on Friday. Bulls might still be able to sustain the short-term bullishness in the market, till the end of the year. The support line at 1.1750 would resist a bearish bias from forming this week.

USDCHF
Dominant bias: Neutral
This trading instrument did not make any significant movement last week, neither is it expected to make any significant movement this week (because volatility would thin out). Price is thus expected to oscillate between the resistance level at 0.9950 and support level at 0.9800 within the next several trading days. However, a breakout will occur early January, which would result in a directional bias, ending this current neutrality in the market.


GBPUSD
Dominant bias: Neutral
The GBPUSD consolidated throughout last week, forming no directional movement. The price has generally swung between the distribution territory at 1.3450 and the accumulation territory at 1.3300. Generally the current neutrality will exist as long as price swings between the distribution territory at 1.3500 and the accumulation territory at 1.3250. Such is the condition that will exist for the rest of this year.

USDJPY
Dominant bias: Bullish
There is a short-term bullish bias on the USDJPY, but it is not strong. Price gained 100 pips last week, from the demand level at 112.50 to the supply level at 113.50. After the supply level at 113.50 was tested, price retraced towards the southwards, but that is not a threat to current short-term bias. This week, a big price swing is not expected unless an unexpected fundamental figure comes out from the blue.

EURJPY
Dominant bias: Bullish
There is a Bullish Confirmation Pattern in the market. Here, price rose up more than 200 pips (from the demand zone at 132.50 to the supply zone at 134.50). The supply zone at 134.50 was briefly surmounted before price went below it on December 22. The bullish bias is anticipated to hold out for the rest of the year, in spite of any bearish attempts along the way. The demand zones at 133.50, 133.00 and 132.50 would impede bearish pulls in the market.

GBPJPY
Dominant bias: Bullish
The GBPJPY cross rose upwards last week, and then started to consolidate on Thursday (till the end of the week). Further sideways movement in the market, especially for a few more trading days, would result in a neutral bias. A movement to the upside (towards the supply zone at 152.50) would help strengthen the current bullish bias; and a strong movement to the downside (towards the demand zone at 149.50) would erase the bullish bias.

This forecast is concluded with the quote below:

“One of my first jobs was at a bank working in credit risk management, and it was there that I discovered my love for financial markets and trading in general.

Weekly Trading Forecasts for Major Pairs (January 1 – 5, 2018)

Here’s the market outlook for the week:

EURUSD
Dominant bias: Bullish
There is a Bullish Confirmation Pattern on the market. Price went upwards by 170 pips last week, almost managing to close barely above the support line at 1.2000. While there could be further bullish effort this week, it is not may not take price above the resistance line at 1.2100, because the outlook on the market is strongly bearish for this week, and mostly bearish for January as whole. Therefore, the days on the current bullish bias are numbered.

USDCHF
Dominant bias: Bearish
This trading instrument was vividly engaged in a bearish movement last week, thus ending the short-term equilibrium phase that occurred around the middle of December. The market dipped by 160 pips last week, closing below the resistance level at 0.9750. Further bearish movement is expected this week, which could take price towards the support levels at 0.9700 and 0.9650. USD would try to amass some stamina sometimes this week, but that would not make a significant bullish difference (until EURUSD dips), because CHF itself would become strong versus many major currencies this month, and USD included.

GBPUSD
Dominant bias: Bullish
This pair, which was mostly moving sideways in December, managed to start a bullish movement last week. A close above the accumulation territory at 1.3500 means the sideways phase is temporarily over. The bullish bias would hold out only as long as price is able to stay above the accumulation territory at 1.3450. There would be strong movements on this pair, as well as other GBP pairs, in January, and most of the movements would be bearish.

USDJPY
Dominant bias: Bearish
USDJPY is bearish in the short-term, and neutral in the long-term. Price consolidated on Monday and Tuesday, dropped on Wednesday, and maintained the drop till end of the week. This is what has created the short-term bearishness in the market. Since the outlook on JPY pairs is somewhat bearish for this week, it is expected that the bearish movement would continue, thus targeting the demand levels at 112.50 and 112.00.

EURJPY
Dominant bias: Bullish
Unlike what USDJPY did, EURJPY managed to go upwards last week, breaching the demand zone at 135.00 and testing the supply zone at 135.50, before closing below it. One factor responsible for this is the stamina on EUR, and there is a possibility that price would be able to go above the supply level at 135.50 (even reaching another supply zone at 136.00 and moving above it as well). However, risk of a large bearish run exists, since the outlook on most JPY pairs is bearish for the week.

GBPJPY
Dominant bias: Bullish
This cross has been able to sustain the “buy” signal it generated in the middle of December. The upwards movement is slow and gradual, and it may survive as price gains another 100 pips this week. Nonetheless, there is a possibility of a bearish movement starting before the end of the week – or sometimes this month - for GBP could become week. Additional factor is also a possible strengthening of Yen.

This forecast is concluded with the quote below:

“If traders cannot accept the losses that go with the trading, they do not deserve the profits. Failure is the greatest teacher only when a student is prepared to learn. If the student has forgotten previous lessons, or the dog ate his homework, he is not ready. A positive attitude has positive expectations of future events and normally precedes the success it creates.” – Andy Jordan

Re: An Expert's Journal Of Weekly Trades by ituglobal(m): 12:12am On Jan 02, 2018
Technical Reviews for Gold and Silver (January 2018)

GOLD (XAUUSD)
Dominant Bias: Bullish
Gold dropped massively in the first half of last month, reaching a low of 1236.21 on December 12, 2017. At that juncture, further bearish movement was rejected, as price went upwards by 7000 pips, ending the month on a strong bullish note. There is a Bullish Confirmation Pattern in the market and further bullish movement is anticipated throughout this month, although that does not rule out possibilities of temporary pullbacks along the way. Overall, Gold is supposed to gain at least, another 2000 pips in January.

SILVER (XAGUSD)
Dominant Bias: Bullish
The movement on Silver last month was quite similar to the movement on Gold. Actually, November was flat, but a bearish movement was started in that month, which ran into December (until December 12, reaching a low of 15.6114). After the low of December was reached, the market assumed a strong bullish rally, which held out for the rest of December. Having gained 15,000 pips (before the current shallow bearish retracements), there is a strong bullish bias on the market. This means Silver would continue going upwards this January, reaching resistance levels at 17.2000, 17.5000 and 17.8000. The resistance level at 17.8000 may even be exceeded.

Weekly Trading Forecasts for Major Pairs (January 8 - 12, 2018)

Here’s the market outlook for the week:

EURUSD
Dominant bias: Bullish
The market essentially consolidated throughout last week – in the context of an uptrend. Although price did not go seriously upwards or downwards last week, that stance is going to change this week (for price would assume a directional movement). It is much more likely that price would continue going upwards, owing to bullish expectations on EUR pairs. So at least 150 pips may be gained this week.

USDCHF
Dominant bias: Bearish
This pair was caught in an equilibrium movement last week (although the overall bias on the market is bearish). Unlike the equilibrium phase of last week, there is going to be a strong breakout this week, which would, nonetheless, respect the ongoing bearish bias. This is because there would be selling pressures on USDCHF, except EURUSD drops sharply. At least, a southwards movement of 100 pips is expected from here, reaching the support levels at 0.9700 and 0.9650.

GBPUSD
Dominant bias: Bullish
This trading instrument went upwards last week, to test the distribution territory at 1.3600, before dropping lower. So far, the drop has been shallow and that has not overridden the bullish bias on the market, unless the accumulation territory at 1.3400 is breached to the downside, which would require a heavy selling pressure. The distribution territory at 1.3600 could be tested again. It could even be breached to the upside.

USDJPY
Dominant bias: Bullish
Last week, USDJPY rejected further bearish effort as it went upwards by 110 pips, thereby generating a short-term “buy” signal. Price managed to close above the demand level at 113.00 on Friday, thus making further northwards movement a possibility. This means the supply levels at 113.50 and 114.00 could be reached this week. Nevertheless, there is a present risk of a large pullback on JPY pairs.

EURJPY
Dominant bias: Bullish
This cross went upwards last week, reached the supply zone at 136.50 and ended the week in a bearish correction. Since December 15, 2017, price has gained over 400 pips; plus it would be somewhat difficult for a lasting bearish movement to occur in the market, as long EUR is strong. The targets for this week are located at the supply zones of 136.50, 137.00 and 137.50. There are demand zones at 135.00 and 134.50.

GBPJPY
Dominant bias: Bullish
GBPJPY experienced a strong bullish movement last week, moving from the demand zone at 152.00, to reach the supply zone at 153.50. It is possible that price would gain another 200 pips this week, as price goes further northwards. However, the more the market goes upwards, the more the chances of a bearish correction, which may be significant enough to challenge the ongoing bullish outlook. That is expected to happen anytime this month.

This forecast is concluded with the quote below:
