Today's Focus: EURUSD & GBPUSD

  • EURUSD: Overturns Intra Day Gains, Closes Lower
  • GBPUSD: Focus On 1.7251 Level Remains While GBP Trades Below The 1.8000 Level.

EURUSD

Earlier intraday gainS seen on Tuesday morning were wiped out putting EUR on a second day of negative closes since failing at 1.4427 on Monday. This development continues to buttress the pair's medium term bearish structure suggesting further downside weakness towards its Oct'07 low at 1.4015 with a loss of there extending prices towards its July'07 low at 1.3852.Weekly and monthly momentum indicators are pointing lower supporting this argument. Upside targets are seen at the 1.4366/10 zone, its Jan'08/Dec'07 lows initially followed by its Sept 08'08 high at 1.4429 and then its broken LT rising trendline at 1.4486.On the whole, while any signs of nearer term reversal is yet to be seen,GBP should remain vulnerable to the downside.

GBPUSD

Although corrective bounces may be shaping up as the pair's recent low at the 1.7471 level remains untested, while that recovery is capped by the 1.8000 level, resumption of broader weakness through the 1.7471 level and then the 1.7251 level, its April'06 low is expected. Below the latter will put the pair in position to aim at additional lower prices towards the 1.7130 level, its Dec'05 low before its Nov'05 low at 1.7067.Higher time frame studies are bearish and trending lower suggesting further weakness. On the upside, ,its Sept 05'08 high at 1.7744 will come as the immediate resistance where a break and hold above there will set the stage for a move towards its Jan'06/Sept 08'08 highs at 1.7935/76 ahead of the 1.8090 level, its Jun'06 low. All in all, our broader view remains lower though nearer term recovery may be seen.
