There were a few good calls and a few not-so-good yesterday. The spike up to 1.4151 EURUSD yesterday didn’t quite reach the 1.4177 minimum target but then I’m not quite convinced that we saw the ultimate high yet… It has done just about enough to satisfy the upside target – as has USDCHF bouncing from [...] [...more]
DAILY FORECAST FOR AUDUSD Bias: The downside should be limited to 0.7982-00 today The 0.8141-66 resistance worked perfectly and I suspect we have seen the top here. However, there is a risk of what could be a deep pullback. The current losses may well have potential down to the 0.7982-00 area but cautiously I feel [...] [...more]
EURUSD did jump above resistance line at 1.4111, trend is positive now. Bulls needs to keep candles above resistance, otherwise bears will enter into the market with a danger for bulls.

The failure for the Dollar to make any significant gains yesterday is beginning to wear down the general expectations I have been holding and does therefore begin to force me into considering alternatives. I remain with the conflict that I see between a break towards the 1.4177-1.4212 area in EURUSD which will almost certainly imply [...] [...more]
DAILY FORECAST FOR GBPUSD Bias: I suspect we’ll see losses today towards 1.6277-1.6313 While the risk of a stronger rally to 1.6850 is possible I feel this will not come in one move. Thus the 1.6662-80 area should probably cap today for a correction lower. Thus watch for bearish reversal patterns. I feel that this [...] [...more]
