Foreign Exchange Price & Time at a Glance:

EUR/USD:

Charts Created using Marketscope – Prepared by Kristian Kerr

-EUR/USD failed last week just below the 6th square root progression of the year-to-date low and has since come under steady downside pressure

-Our trend bias is now lower, but a clear breach of the 1.3030 area (convergence of 2x1 Gann angle line of year’s low & 61.8% retracement May to June advance) is required to set off a more important decline

-Near-term focused cycle studies suggest a minor turn window is in effect over the next day or two

-The 2x1 Gann angle line from the year-to-date high near 1.3200 is immediate resistance

-However, only clear strength above 1.3335 turns us positive on the single currency

Strategy: Like adding to short positions on the expected strength over the next couple of days.

AUD/USD:

Charts Created using Marketscope – Prepared by Kristian Kerr

-AUD/USD traded to its lowest level since 3Q2010 on Monday before rebonding just ahead of the 38% retracment of the advance from the 2008 low to the 2011 high in the .9135 area

-Our trend bias is lower in the Aussie, but extreme caution is required around .9135 as such long-term retracement levels have a greater propensity to spark changes in trend

-A longer-term turn window is in effect this week in the Aussie

-The 12th square root progression of the year-to-date high in the .9295 area is immediate resistance

-However, only strength over .9425 confirms a more important shift in trend

Strategy: Like being flat around the big support level. May look to get long if the rate can muster a close above .9295.

EUR/GBP:

Charts Created using Marketscope – Prepared by Kristian Kerr

-EUR/GBP failed again last week at the 78.6% retracement of the April range in the .8585 area

-Our trend bias is now lower, but weakness below the .8440 4th square root progression of the year-to-date high is really needed to suggest that a more important decline is underway

-The range in the cross has muddled the cycle outook, near-term counts seem to favor strength over the next couple of days

-The .8585 area remains an important resistance
