The pair managed to slide to a fresh 2-month low of 1.5601 before bounce to end the American session at 1.5640, down from 1.5673 late Friday.

AUD/USD is at a session high of 1.0555 versus an earlier low of 1.0504, quoted around 0.4% above its starting price this Tuesday.EUR/JPY is currently at session lows 108.29, falling from recent session and weekly highs at 108.52, touched twice during present session.

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

EURUSD rise and formed a top at 1.3192 (R1). A break above that level would suggest target at 1.3291 (R2). On the other hand if the price does not manage to break above 1.3192 (R1) then we can expect a retest of the support level at 1.3078 (S1). A break below that level would suggest target at 1.3025 (S2).

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

A break below that level would suggest target at 1.5562 (S2) and further fall will be limited at 1.5513 (S3). On the other hand a break above 1.5695 (R1) we expect the price to retest 1.5769 (R2) and further rise will then be limited at 1.5834 (R3) leg correction to the downtrend.

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

USDJPY found a strong resistance at 82.63 (R1) and trapped in a trading range between the level of 82.63 (R1) and today’s low 81.95 (S1). A break above the first resistance would suggest a target of 82.97 (R2). If price holds its momentum on the upside we can expect a further rise towards 83.28 (R3). On the other hand, if the price does not manage to break above 82.63 (R1) we can expect the pair to retest first support at 81.95 (S1). A break below that level would suggest target at 81.46 (S2) and further decline will then be limited at 81.14 (S3).
