Full Report Here... | Candlesticks & Ichimioku Analysis | Trade Idea: USD/CHF - Sell At 1.0420, O.C.O Buy At 1.0230 As dollar has remained under pressure, suggesting recent decline is still in progress and fall to 1.0265/68 (1.236 times projection of 1.0885 to 1.0529 measuring from 1.0708), then towards 1.0230 (approx. 50% projection of 1.0700 to 1.0322 measuring from 1.0420) is under way, however, oversold condition would limit downside and reckon 1.0200 would limit downside and bring rebound later. Full Report Here... Trade Idea: GBP/USD - Sell At 1.6630 As the British pound has continued to edge higher, suggesting stronger rebound to 1.6613 (61.8% Fibonacci retracement of 1.6742 to 1.6403) cannot be ruled out, however, price should falter well below resistance at 1.6661 and bring another decline later. Break of support at 1.6403 would bring a stronger correction of the rise from 1.6113 to 1.6353 (current level of the Ichimoku cloud bottom as well as 61.8% Fibonacci retracement of 1.6113 to 1.6742) but reckon support at 1.6322 would hold from here. Full Report Here... Trade Idea: USD/JPY - Sell At 91.60 Although dollar rebounded after falling to 90.12 yesterday and consolidation above this level would take place with mild upside bias for correction towards 91.65, however, 91.94-92.06 (previous support turned resistance and current level of the Ichimoku cloud bottom) should hold and bring another decline later. Below said support would extend fall to 90.00, however, loss of downward momentum would limit downside to 89.44-50 (approx. 1.236 times projection of 95.07 to 91.94 measuring from 93.31). Full Report Here... Trade Idea: EUR/USD - Hold Short Entered At 1.4750 Although the single currency has maintained a firm undertone and marginal gain from here is likely, overbought condition should prevent sharp move beyond 1.4790 (61.8% projection of 1.4191 to 1.4636 measuring from 1.4515) and bring a long overdue correction later. Below the Tenkan-Sen (now at 1.4704) would bring retracement towards the Kijun-Sen (now at 1.4641), however, support at 1.4561 should remain intact and bring another rally later.
