GBP/USD Daily Outlook
Daily Pivots: (S1) 1.3097; (P) 1.3140; (R1) 1.3193;
No change in GBP/USD’s outlook. The rebound from 1.2921 should have completed at 1.3257 already. Deeper fall is in favor to 1.2921 support first. Break there will resume the fall from 1.3297 and target 1.2661/2784 support zone. On the upside, in case of another rally, we’d continue to expect strong resistance at 1.3316 key fibonacci level to bring down trend resumption eventually.
In the bigger picture, whole medium term rebound from 1.1946 (2016 low) should have completed at 1.4376 already, after rejection from 55 month EMA. The structure and momentum of the fall from 1.4376 argues that it’s resuming long term down trend. And this will be the preferred case as long as 38.2% retracement of 1.4376 to 1.2661 at 1.3316 holds. However, firm break of 1.3316 would bring stronger rebound to 61.8% retracement at 1.3721. And, the eventual depth of the fall from 1.4376, and the chance of hitting 1.1946 low, will depend on the strength of the interim corrective rebound from 1.2661.
EUR/USD Daily Outlook
Daily Pivots: (S1) 1.1546; (P) 1.1576; (R1) 1.1609;
Intraday bias in EUR/USD remains neutral for the moment. On the upside, break of 1.1610 will extend the rebound from 1.1431 towards 1.1814 resistance. But we’d expect upside to be limited by 1.1779/1814 resistance zone to bring down trend resumption eventually. On the downside, break of 1.1534 will indicate completion of rebound from 1.1431. Intraday bias will be turned back to the downside for 1.1431 and then 1.1300 low.
In the bigger picture, corrective pattern from 1.1300 could have completed at 1.1814 after hitting 38.2% retracement of 1.2555 to 1.1300 at 1.1779. Decisive break of 1.1300 will resume the down trend from 1.2555 to 61.8% retracement of 1.0339 (2017 low) to 1.2555 at 1.1186 next. Sustained break there will pave the way to retest 1.0339. On the upside, break of 1.1814 will delay the bearish case and extend the correction from 1.1300 with another rise before completion.
