MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

EURUSD the pair formed a high at 1.3291 (R3) then fell for 4 consecutive days and formed a bottom at 1.3000 (S1) a significant technical and psychological level. A break below that level will confirm our short positions targeting 1.2955 (S2) and a further fall with then be limited to 1.2912 (S3). On the other hand if the price manages to stay above the 1.3000 (S1) level we expect a retest of 1.3078 (R1) and if a break happens above that level we expect the price to move towards next upwards objective at 1.3192 (R2) and to give a "big breather" to the bulls as the 1.3000s levels are crucial to them.

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

GBPUSD made a sharp move upwards and successfully broke above our resistance level of 1.5695 ending our day with a loss (-45 pips). After that the price fell and now seems to be moving closer to our supports levels. A break below 1.5601 (S1) would suggest a target at 1.5574 (S2). On the other hand if the pair gains momentum upwards we expect the price to retest the 1.5744 (R1) level. Look for short positions below 1.5600 levels.
