The EUR/USD currency pair

货币对的技术指标:

• 前一开盘价: 1.1031
• 前一收盘价: 1.0975
• 过去一天的变化%: -0.51 %

On Friday, the Dollar Index rose more than 0.5% to nearly 102.5, the highest level since mid-August, after the release of a stronger-than-expected US jobs report that reduced the likelihood of a significant interest rate cut by the Federal Reserve next month. Nonfarm Payroll employment rose by 254,000 in September, exceeding expectations, while the previous two months’ figures were revised upward by 72,000 jobs. The unemployment rate fell to 4.1%, below expectations of 4.2%. The rise in the Dollar Index put pressure on the European currency.

交易建议

• 支撑价位: 1.0950, 1,0918
• 阻力价位: 1.0979, 1.1013, 1.1036, 1.1079, 1.1136, 1.1163

The EUR/USD currency pair’s hourly trend is bearish. On Friday, the euro fell sharply against the US dollar and reached the 1.0950 support level. Sellers’ pressure remains, but there are the first signs of profit-taking. The MACD divergence indicates the approaching corrective movement. Today we should not expect volatility here, most likely the market will trade in the corridor between 1.0950 and 1.0979. Both levels can be used to enter positions, but only with intraday confirmation.

选择场景:

if the price breaks the resistance level at 1.1163 and consolidates above it, the uptrend will likely resume.

The GBP/USD currency pair

货币对的技术指标:

• 前一开盘价: 1.3115

• 过去一天的变化%: +0.02 %

This week’s test for the pound could be the monthly GDP data for August, which will be released on Friday and will be accompanied by industrial production figures as well as trade data for the month. Disappointing figures could reinforce Bailey’s remarks on interest rate cuts. The market is now almost certain that a quarter-point rate cut will happen in November and, with a 65% probability, expects another cut in December. 

交易建议

• 支撑价位: 1.3097, 1.3035
• 阻力价位: 1.3175, 1.3290, 1.3327, 1.3377, 1.3389

From the point of view of technical analysis, the trend on the GBP/USD currency pair is bearish. The situation is very similar to the euro, but the British pound shows more resistance to the fall. Currently, the price has reached the support level of 1.3097, where the sellers’ profits are being taken. The MACD divergence indicates a corrective movement, but the intraday pressure is still behind the sellers. Under such market conditions, buying should be sought from the support level of 1.3097, but with confirmation. For selling, it is best to use the resistance level of 1.3175.

选择场景:

if the price breaks the resistance level at 1.3389 and consolidates above it, the uptrend will likely resume.

The USD/JPY currency pair

货币对的技术指标:

• 前一开盘价: 146.83
• 前一收盘价: 148.66
• 过去一天的变化%: +1.24 %

The Japanese yen rose to 148 against the dollar, losing more than 3% this week as Japan’s top officials tempered their expectations for more interest rate hikes. Incoming Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba said it was too early for further rate hikes given current economic conditions. Japan’s Economy Minister Ryosei Akazawa also urged the Central Bank to be cautious about another rate hike. In addition, Ishiba’s Finance Minister Katsunobu Kato is tasked with developing measures aimed at lowering prices, economic growth, and helping low-income households.

交易建议

• 支撑价位: 146.87, 146.02, 144.20, 143.53, 142.22
• 阻力价位: 149.37, 151.26

From a technical point of view, the medium-term trend of the USD/JPY currency pair is bullish. The price is trying to test the resistance zone above 149.37. The MACD divergence is getting stronger, which increases the probability of corrective movement from this zone. Intraday, we can look for buying up to this zone, but with short targets. For selling, it is worth considering 148.37, but also with confirmation in the form of sellers’ initiative.

选择场景:

if the price breaks down the support level of 146.02, the downtrend will likely resume.
