Windsor Brokers - Short Term Technical Analysis for Majors (07:45 GMT)

EUR/USD

Maintains negative one off 1.3691, 12 Apr high, with the latest bounce from 1.3201, 23 Apr low, attempting to leave a lower top at 1.3398. If this is confirmed, then fresh relapse towards key 1.3201/1.3190 lows is likely, and potential break here to extend weakness. Break above 1.3398/1.3422, however, will delay immediate bears and open way for stronger correction.

Sup: 1.3332, 1.3268, 1.3201, 1.3190

GBP/USD

Renewed attempt higher off 1.5294, 23 Apr higher low has cleared 1.5428, trendline resistance, and 1.5472, 22 Apr lower top, en-route to key 1.5523, 15 Apr peak. Potential break here would open a fresh leg higher off 1.4780, yearly low, though, over-extended hourly studies warn of correction. However, failure under 1.5523 may signal return to weakness and below 1.5294/1.5190 to re-focus 1.4780.

USD/JPY

Remains in uptrend off 92.72 higher low, with the latest attempt through 94.25, 07 Apr high, looking for test of key 94.77, 05 Apr peak. Break here is required to extend short-term recovery from 91.58, 19 Apr low, with test of 95.05, 61.8% retracement of 101.43/84.81 downleg, seen next. 93.29, 23 Apr low, offers initial support and break there would delay immediate bulls.

USD/CHF

Correction from 1.0848, 23 Apr peak, is attempting to leave a higher low, ahead of extension of upleg from 1.0500, 14 Apr higher low. Clearance of 1.0848 is needed to re-focus key 1.0898, 19 Feb yearly high, and potential break higher to resume correction from 0.9916, 26 Nov 2009 low. 1.0711 offers support for now and only break below 1.0674, 22 Apr low, would delay bulls.

EUR/USD

Correction from 1.3201, 23 Apr low, remains capped by 1.3422 thus far, keeping the broader downtrend in play. Downside loss of 1.3290/68 will open 1.3201/1.3190 for retest. Break above 1.3422, however, delays and opens stronger correction towards 1.3448/1.3520.

Sup: 1.3344, 1.3290, 1.3268, 1.3201

GBP/USD

Near-term structure favors a decline towards 1.5396, ahead of final swing higher to complete the upleg from 1.5294. Loss of 1.5350, however, will end bullish bias and open fresh weakness

Res: 1.5508, 1.5520, 1.5575, 1.5635

Sup: 1.5396, 1.5350, 1.5294, 1.5256

USD/JPY

Continues to trend higher, with break through important 93.73/79 area, seeing an extension to 94.35, ahead of the current minor easing. This should precede a challenge on key 94.77, 05 Apr high and near-term pivot, where an eventual break is expected to trigger broader gains off 84.80, 27 Nov 2009 low.

Sup: 93.62, 93.45, 93.29, 92.72

USD/CHF

Correction off 1.0848 is taking the form of a descending wedge and this will set up the next leg higher to test 1.0898 2010 high. 1.0787 marks a short-term pivot, while 1.0698/74 area offers initial support.

EUR/USD

Correction from 1.3201, 23 Apr low, remains capped by 1.3422 thus far, keeping the broader downtrend in play. 1.3290 already dented, with further losses through 1.3268, to open 1.3201/1.3190 next. Break above 1.3422, however, delays and opens stronger correction towards 1.3448/1.3520.

Sup: 1.3268, 1.3201, 1.3190, 1.3165

GBP/USD

Short-term structure has now weakened further, as failing to find support for a potential higher low, has extended losses through 1.5396/50 support, to reach 1.5320 so far. This ends near-term bullish bias and opens way for fresh decline towards 1.5190.

Res: 1.5473, 1.5497, 1.5508, 1.5520

Sup: 1.5320, 1.5294, 1.5256, 1.5190

USD/JPY

Upleg off 91.58, 19 Apr low, has stalled at 94.35 yesterday, just ahead of 94.77, 05 Apr pivot. Subsequent reversal broke below 93.62 and 93.45 supports, threatening now important 93.29, 23 Apr low support. Potential break here to risk 92.96/72, 50% retracement / 22 Apr higher platform, next. Only regain of 94.02 to improve tone.

Res: 94.02, 94.35, 94.60, 94.77

EUR/USD

Maintains negative tone, with break of corrective triangle on 27 Apr, extending losses fresh year low at 1.3114 yesterday. Minor correction now precedes a test on 1.3090, 76.4% retracement of 1.2455/1.5140 upleg, possibly 1.2885 near-term. Immediate resistance stands at 1.3263.

Res: 1.3263, 1.3290, 1.3342, 1.3412

Sup: 1.3141, 1.3114, 1.3090, 1.2963

GBP/USD

Recent break under trend-line support off 1.4797 negates the possibility of a double bottom at 1.4780/97. Scope is now seen for a short-term rise to create a lower high for a continuation of weakness.

Res: 1.5240, 1.5293, 1.5351, 1.5365

Sup: 1.5124, 1.5042, 1.5004, 1.4929

USD/JPY

Lower rejection at 92.80 on 27 Apr, confirmed the underlying bull structure. A break above 94.31/35, 26/28 Apr highs, will complete a multi week bull configuration that sights the 97.00 area. Only break below 92.80 would delay.

Res: 94.35, 94.60, 94.77, 95.05

Sup: 93.71, 93.37, 92.97, 92.80

USD/CHF

Remains in uptrend from 1.0500, with break of hourly triangle on 27 Apr, triggering the latest rise that cleared key 1.0898 barrier, to reach 1.0922 yesterday. 1.0812 now marks a tentative higher platform for fresh attempt at 1.0940 and 1.1026.

Res: 1.0922, 1.0940, 1.0956, 1.0987
