Forecast for USDX for May 29, 2014

Today traders eye prelim GDP and unemployment claims data. The index moved to a 2-month high. The index closed above the 200-day EMA which was a bullish sign for the medium term for 82 and 84 targets, but the overbought indicators stopped the dollar and it did not cross the previous swing high at 80.60 (April 04 high), the index formed a double top at 80.58 levels. We expect the price will correct a bit to 80.30, 80.17 and 80. A day close below the 80 mark, then the bulls is in trouble, the weakness exists only below 80.40 levels.

Daily analysis of GBP/JPY for May 30, 2014

Overview:

The H4 chart demonstrates today that the pair still cannot break the support area of 170.00-169.75 and it is currently trading above the support area, so we should wait for the mid-day closing. If the pair manages to close 4H below it, there will be a good opportunity to sell till reaching the support level of 169.20 after closing 4H below it. After that we should wait for breaking out this support level to continue the bearish move. In case the pair is able to break the support level of 169.20 and closes 4H below it, we will get bearish strength which will provide new sell signals and enable the support level of 168.50 as a target level.

Resistance and support levels:

R3 (172.75), R2 (172.00), R1 (171.50), S1 (170.00), S2 (169.75), S3 (169.20).More analysis - at instaforex.com
