NZDJPY – Pulling Back Towards Key Resistance (Daily chart)

Price Action Context

On the 13th of May, NZDJPY cleared a LT key support zone followed by a 2-3 week correction before selling picked up again. After putting in a ST bottom + reversal around 70.70, price is now closing in on the broken LT support, now acting as resistance. If bears can defend this resistance zone successfully, a bearish continuation towards the major support around 69.80, dating back all the way to 2009, is likely IMO.

Trending Analysis

Bearish LT bias and sellers can look for potential trading locations around the key resistance.

EURJPY – Strong Weekly Close Below LT Key Support, Now Resistance (Weekly chart)

Price Action Context

The potential strong weekly close below the LT key resistance zone we hinted about in our mid-week commentary manifested and we can consider this zone fully cleared at this point.

eurjpy-forex-trade-setup-2ndskies

Trending Analysis

LT bias is bearish and bears can look for potential shorting opportunities on pullbacks towards the weekly zone, alternatively look for potential RRL plays on the H4 charts where currently a MT CVT is in play.

Key Support & Resistance Zones

R: 122.50 – 124.00

EURGBP – Counter-Trend False Break @ Top of SCS (1h chart)

Price Action Context

As already mentioned in our daily trade ideas on Thursday, EURGBP is trading within a SCS on top of a bull trend. Price is extended from its mean on the HTF, suggesting a ST exhaustion and towards the end of past week, bulls failed to push price further north, printing a counter-trend false break setup at the top of the SCS.

eurgbp-false-break-setup-2ndskiesforex

Trending Analysis

The false break at the top of the SCS opens up for a likely move back towards the support of the corrective structure which can offer potential buying opportunities to bulls. Should the SCS support fail to hold, a move down towards the LT support we’ve mentioned in earlier commentaries is likely IMO, which can offer further trading opportunities to bulls.

Key Support & Resistance Zones

R: 0.8835 – 0.8850
S: 0.8780 – 0.8800

Hang Seng 50 – Bearish CVT Still Alive (1h chart)

Price Action Context

The ST bearish CVT is still alive and has offered multiple potential RRL-plays since we we mentioned it in our market commentary on the 19th of May. Congratulations to those of you who were able to take advantage and profit from these ST trading opportunities. The trend seems to be slowing down slightly as the bearish impulsive moves are getting weaker, but as long as the price action does not break back impulsively above the last broken support, the trend is in play.

hang-seng-index-trading-signals-2ndskiesforex

Trending Analysis

HTF is non-volatile + MT & ST bias are bearish and bears can look for potential shorting opportunities on weak pullbacks towards the last broken ST support, now resistance.

EURJPY – Breaking Below LT Key Support Zone (Weekly chart)

Price Action Context

With almost no signs of bullish order flow over the last few weeks, price has slowly been chewing its way through the LT key support zone we’ve mentioned in earlier commentaries, and this week we’re seeing the first solid attempt by bears to fully clear this support zone.

eurjpy-forex-trade-setup-2ndskies

Trending Analysis

A strong weekly close below this support zone would open up for a potential bearish continuation towards 1.1860, whilst a bullish impulsive move back above the support zone would render this a false break and put 1.27 back into focus.

AUDUSD – Bears Trying To Clear Key Support (Daily chart)

Price Action Context

Trading inside of a LT corrective structure preceded by a bear trend that started in January last year @ around 0.81. Since the flash crash and false break in January this year, the pair has been ranging, creating new lower lows, hinting about decreasing bullish order flow.

audusd-forex-trade-signal-2ndskiesforex

Trending Analysis

Bearish bias while below 0.7400. A strong break and close below the key support would open up for a likely continuation towards the multi-year support starting to come in at 0.6940, which in turn can offer potential trading opportunities to bears. Should bulls on the other hand be able to defend the support, a move back up towards 0.72 is likely IMO.

BTCUSD – Closing In On Major Resistance (Weekly chart)

Price Action Context

Bitcoin broke out to the upside of the tight consolidation we mentioned in late March followed by very strong buying and is now approaching a major key resistance zone.

bitcoin-trading-signal-2ndskiesforex

Trending Analysis

LT bias remains unchanged bearish while trading below 6 400 and bears looking for potential shorting opportunities can look for possible locations around the key resistance zone. A break and close above this key resistance would put 7 350 and 8 400 back on the radar.

SUI20 – Broken Above Major Multi-Year Resistance, Potential False Break (Monthly chart)

Price Action Context

The bullish order flow was simply too much for bears to counter, and with almost no reaction to the multi-year resistance this time around, bulls have now successfully pushed price above the resistance, creating a new ATH in the process.

sui20-index-trade-signal-2ndskiesforex

Trending Analysis

LT bias is bullish and the index is now in uncharted territory, with 10 000 being the next area of interest to look out for. If bulls are able to hold price above this resistance, weak pullbacks into the broken resistance, which now should act as support, can offer possible buying locations. Should we on the other hand see a quick return back below the resistance, we’d likely be looking at a false break setup which initially would put 8 400 back on the radar.

NZDUSD – Closing In On A LT Key Support Level (daily chart)
For pretty much all of 2019, the NZDUSD has been stuck in a ~250 pip corrective structure between 6700 and 6950 with several touches on both sides. Until this corrective structure breaks, or either of the key support/resistance zones, with a weekly close above/below them, I’m going to trade both sides of the market while targeting the other end.

nzdusd-forex-trade-setup-key-support-2ndskiesforex

Trending Analysis:

ST corrective so trading both sides. MT mixed and whichever side breaks first will likely indicate the next major direction.

EURUSD – Pulling Back Towards Key Resistance (Daily chart)

Price Action Context

After a failed attempt to fully clear the LT support between 1.1270-1.1300, bulls managed to re-gain some control, but the weak and very volatile bullish move from the support isn’t very convincing, suggest a more balanced order flow and continued bearish presence.

Since then, price has recovered from the sell off and is now approaching a key resistance zone.

NZDUSD – Rejected At Resistance, Now Testing Support (Daily chart)

Price Action Context

For now, despite 2 solid attempts, bulls have not been able to successfully clear 0.69 which is the top of a multi-year S/R zone. Instead, bears again stepped in, heavily rejecting the bullish attack and price is now back testing the LT support a second time after the false break in early January.

EURGBP – LT Range Still In Play But Expanding (Daily chart)

Price Action Context

Despite the heavy bearish assault on the LT support, bulls stepped in at the lows from April last year and were able to defend the support zone for now. With LT volatility increasing, it seems the range is expanding both to the up- and downside which made us adjust our S/R zones slightly.
