Trading OTC Forex on margin carries a high level of risk, and may not be suitable for all investors. The high degree of leverage can work against you as well as for you. Before deciding to invest in foreign exchange or futures you should carefully consider your investment objectives, level of experience, and risk appetite. The possibility exists that you could sustain a loss of some or all of your initial investment and therefore you should not invest money that you cannot afford to lose. You should be aware of all the risks associated with foreign exchange and futures trading, and seek advice from an independent financial advisor if you have any doubts.

I do believe that sentiment is today ruling markets, so a better than expecetd reading will probably trigger a bullish rally in stocks, and so, dollar down . EUR/USD has break above a descednant trend line, pullback and remains above it, wwith a bullish tone coming from this 4 hours chart
Friday April 30, 2010 1:21 Valeria Bednarik
1:22
Valeria Bednarik:
as long as above 1.3280, pair can regain teh upside, and test 1.3340 ahead of 1.3380 zone. Under 1.3280, supports come at 1.3220/30 area, and 1.3180

If stocks react strongly to the reading, yes, pair likley to be the first one moving. We are above the 94.40 now support area, with resistances at 94.85 and 95.20 zone. Strong support comes at 93.70, I cna't see the pair losing that at this point.

As comment on the blog, pair has tested several times teh 1.5310 zone, and now we broke it in pre report position adjustment! pair is adressing to 1.5270/80 support area; under it, rally could extend to the 1.5220 zone, ahead of 1.5160. Strong resistance now lies at the 1.5330 level, daily highs from most of this April, with next one at 1.5385

Short term, as commented above, pair has a slightly bullish perspective, as optimism about Greece bailout spreads a bit. Still I do see mid term, long term trend pretty bearish.

What do you think of AUDJPY
Friday April 30, 2010 1:28 Ankit
1:30
Valeria Bednarik:
I have been stating several times here, that aussie remains the strongest currency across the board, while Yen should start weakening as for Japan economic conditions, aiming for 100.00 against dollar. In general, aud holds a strong bullish tone, with pair at 88.00. Strong support from 2008 weekly low. Rally shoud at least be halted around here, yet an acceleration higher, liklely signal further continuation today.

Valeria Bednarik:
I believe is too early to say. We can't call for a strong cahnge in such correlation, just for a couple of daily movements. Gold is strongly up and tending higher, as for turmoil in markets, acting as the safe haven; we are heading higher here maybe 1185 zone

I was following an ascendant daily channel there, pair broke it to the upside, daily charts.
Friday April 30, 2010 1:33 Valeria Bednarik
1:35
Valeria Bednarik:
Due to its economic correlation with Australia, pair holds a strong bullish tone, thus 0.7300 won't be an easy level to overcome. Above it resistances lie at 0.7330 and 0.7370, while support are at 0.7260, previous daily high, and roof of the channel. Pair should stay above that level to hold the bullish tone

Eur/aud, is the exact example of where market forces are: aussie strongest euro weakest.. and pair at muti years low. Correcting slightly to the upside today, daily charts show no sign of a reversal in current bearish trend. Hittinh 1.4300, resistances for the pair 1.4350, and 1.4390, while supports lie at 1.4260 and 1.4220 zone

Valeria Bednarik:
As usual, fundamental close to expectations, won't be able to interrupt previous market trend. Pair has made a pullback to the 1.3300 area, and is back gaining the upside, we need to accelerate above 1.3340, to extend the rally, to next mentioned resistance zones, 1.3385, and 1.3420

I have been following the pair trapped in between 0.8600 strong support area, weekly charts clear, and the 0.8700 zone, base of a huge triangle pair has also in the weekly chart. we are approaching to weekly high now, around 0.8730 area, where we also have the 20 SMA with a bullish slope in the daily chart. Pair needs to break either above it or under 0.8600 to get rid of current range and define a clearer trend

That's another great question!!! should yes, but due to bearish strong tone in yen, the effect is just avoiding it to ful further, ergo, to see crosses gaining the upside strongly. Japan deflation, moving capitals to foreign investments, and lawmakers there asking for 120! against dollar, will continue ot keep the downside limited.

You should be aware of all the risks associated with foreign exchange and futures trading, and seek advice from an independent financial advisor if you have any doubts.

Wednesday April 28, 2010 7:23
7:23
Valeria Bednarik:
around the 0.8700 area, so that is a huge resistance for the pair rigth now, and we actually will need a weekly close above that broken descendant trned line, to consider chances of an upside rally there.
Wednesday April 28, 2010 7:23 Valeria Bednarik
7:24
Valeria Bednarik:
however, 0.8600 is also quite a strong support area, and seems not easy to break for the pair.

Valeria Bednarik:
despite some recovery now, to 1.3170 current price, general trend remains strongly bearish. above 1.3220, pair could attempt again to correct to 1.3265 intraday high, but if we lose 1.3140/30 zone again, I would expect a rally to mentioned 1.3075

Regarding GBP/USD, pair has reached an interesting bottom today, the 1.5130 zone.. daily charts show a good number of daily lows of this April, there, as well as several daily highs from February, turning the zone into a quite strong support area.
Wednesday April 28, 2010 7:31 Valeria Bednarik

currently quoting at 1.5185, pair has resistances around 1.5220 and 1.5260 ahead, thus really seem with no strength to rise from here.
Wednesday April 28, 2010 7:32 Valeria Bednarik
7:32
Valeria Bednarik:
under 1.5160, pair likley to retest that mentioned area, that if broken could trigger a more interesting selling rally, with 1.5050 and 1.4990 as next supports to consider.

as you can see in the chart, gold is around this year highs, reached earlier today. In turmoin times as the ones we are living now with the eurozone, is the best refugee for investors; gold holds a bullish tone and above 1174, next resistance area comes at 1182 zone.

7:37
Valeria Bednarik:
however, 94.40 seems to be a strong barrier where Japanese exporters are rumored to be selling; we need to accelerate above that level, and we are getting closer, to see pair reaching next resistance area, around 94.80

Oversold in which time frame? it all depends how you look at the pair. Short term ttalking, we are seing some corrective movement that can't reach 1.5220 resistance area, and after first spike, majors had settle down; will be a matter of a few hours till they regain previous trend.

I do see the CAD still strong and with further chances of extending the rally, so USD/CAD likley to test parity, or even break lower. I will be worried if oil losses this year base of $ 80. per barrel, and not before. Pair remains bearish, with supports at 1.0065, 1.0030 and 0.9980. We need to clear trhe 1.0250 zone, to see a change in the trend.

Hi Leo, despite market is not really forecasting a rate change, there is a chance of a 0.25% increase, following past months hawkish tone coming from the BOC. The fact is that I'm not so convinced any economy will dare to move before US, but we know Australia is doing it, so market has been lately pricing in a rate hike, sending Canadian dollar even under parity

Valeria Bednarik:
well, of course will depend on the decision, but as comment above, will likely affect more CAD and GBP then, than the rest of the crosses. Anyway! Euro is losing momentum quickly, already under support as market start positon adjustments before the data

USD/CAD has been in a clear and strong bearish trend since several weeks for now. I still consider last bullish rally as corrective, and pair is already under that 38.2% short term view

Good Day Valeria, what would you expect for GBP/CAD today? Thanks
Tuesday April 20, 2010 2:02 Seb

we need to give market 15 minutes to settle down and diggest the news, but in general cad crosses had a bearish perspective at this point. Let me take a look at the statment, likley hawkish as expected.

Valeria Bednarik:
Good question! as you can see, in the chart, oil has set a base in the $ 80 per barrel zone, that has been a roof for most of the 2009. Prices are unable to fall, and we are currently testing the 38.2% retracement of past daily fall around 83.80
Tuesday April 20, 2010 2:05 Valeria Bednarik

Valeria Bednarik:
OK! BOC says it 's appropriate to begin removeing monetary stimulus
Tuesday April 20, 2010 2:06 Valeria Bednarik
2:07
Valeria Bednarik:
That's hawkish stance, Anyway! and back to oil, I do believe we have a bullish perspective there, heading to 85 where the 61.8% retracement is. above this last, black gold could extend rally

Seems a bit too much my friend; however, I do believe that is quite a strong support level, and despite we could beat parity again, not sure if pair could beat that zone. Major long term support area.

As comment above, all yen crosses had a bullish perspective, with Japan looking to devaluate their currency. PAir is actually above 143.00, with immediate resistances at 143.40 and 143.90 area. Supports for next hours, are at 142.60 and 142.10

Euro is back around 1.3485; resistance lies at 1.3520 , 1.3555 and 1.3580/90 zone, while supports now are at 1.3440 and 1.3410 yesterday's low.

Tuesday April 20, 2010 2:11

Valeria Bednarik:
Pair holds a bullish tone since early Europe CPI readings; holding around 1.5380 area quite a support/ressitance level, I see pair correcting slightly early gains; correction could reach 1.5330 support area, without harming the trend, thus seems unlikely after the data, and with cad apporaching to parity. An acceleration above 1.5390 likely leat the pair back to daily high and above to 1.5460 zone, next resistance to consider.

Valeria Bednarik:
Same scenario as other yen crosses: pair has a bullish tone amid Japan devaluation stance: quoting now around 125.40, pair needs to overcome 125.60 zone to extend the rally to 126.10; i see supports at 125.00, and 124.40 for today

Tuesday April 20, 2010 2:15 leo

Valeria Bednarik:
Well, with the hawkish stance since today, seems pretty soon, thus as comment at the beginning, not sure if they will "dare" to move before US. that's of course, a personal apreciation.

Pair is testing parity, should consolidate around here, or give a small bulllish corrective movment before another leg down; under parity, next supports are at 0.9960, 0.9920 and 0.9850 strong zone. To the upside now, resistances lie at 1.0030 and 1.0080

what does that mean val n what effect that statement hv in forex?
Tuesday April 20, 2010 2:21 macharia

Valeria Bednarik:
i guess already answer that right? general effect is that we are seing both Aussie and Cad, commodity currencies, gaining strong against dollar, and that anticipates dollar falls in general. But see? majors are not moving all together: market is weighting each currency strength, and moving wisely on that. Cad is under parity
Tuesday April 20, 2010 2:23 Valeria Bednarik

yes, with a slight effect will keep pound limited to the downside, as seems unable to rise. Correcting as comment above, 1.5330 should hold there, to have chances of further rises.

I believe that pound will remain ranging in betwee 1.52/1.54 till elections first day of March. really, don't see the 1.57 posible before that. we really need to regain first 1.55 before talking of 1.57... and as comment above, correcting maybe to 1.5330

I call short term intraday, hourly charts, 4 hours chart, and at this point both look bearish to me. Hourly show indicators breaking lowe, giving sings to the downside, while 4 hours show strongly bearish SMA and price capped under it. that's my reading

I believe you are looking at the 4 hours charts here. 93.70 has been a strong resistance area, yet if you llok at daily or weekly charts, you will see price above the cloud, adn remember this ndicator is ment to be in bigger time frames.. we are only under the cloud in the 4 hours charts, and that area is aresistance level, not an entry point or an indicator signal
