MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis
The EURUSD continued to rise from 1.3026 (S1) and reached a high yesterday at 1.3205 (R2). It seems the pair is moving downwards and it will retest the first support 1.3026 (S1) soon. A break below that level would suggest a target of 1.2986 (S2) and a further decline will then focus on the next target at 1.2947 (S3). On the upside, if the price rebounds from the first support level 1.3026 (S1) we can expect retesting of 1.3167 (R1). A further rise will then bring focus to the next resistance level at 1.3205 (R2).

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis
The GBPUSD is under bearish pressure as it is approaching towards a crucial support level 1.5749 (S1). The pair reached a high at 1.5882 (R3) and then fell back towards 1.5749 (S1). Further fall will test 1.5704 (S2) and decline below this level, suggesting target at 1.5653 (S3). On the other hand, if price manages to stay above 1.5749 (S1) then we expect the price to retest 1.5831 (R1) and then further rise to 1.5860 (R2). We look for short positions in today’s session with a stop loss above 1.5831 (R1).

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis
USDJPY rise sharply on Friday (70 pips) and made a top at 76.74. If it breaks above first resistance level 76.89 (R1) we can expect the price to approaches towards 77.29 (R1). Be on the alert for a correction downwards towards 76.49 and then a continuation to an upward move. Both of our Moving Averages are pointing to a bullish signal. We believe that the bullish pressure will continue.
