EUR/USD: book profit near 1.0600 psy level (adapted from the article)

United Overseas Bank is suggesting to book profit near 1.0600 psy level for short trades. The price is located below 100 SMA/200 SMA for the primary bearish market condition with the secondary ranging within 1.0461 support and 1.1494 resistance level for the breaking 1.0673 support from above to below for the bearish trend to be continuing. Psy level at 1.0600 is located far below 100 SMA/200 SMA in the bearish area of the chart between 1.0461 support and 1.0673 support levels but UOB is telling that this level will not be easy to be broken by the price, and it is very unlikely to be broken for this week for example.


If price will break 1.1494 resistance level so the local uptrend as the secondary market rally will be started within the primary bearish market condition.
If the price will break 1.0673 support so the bearish trend will be continuing up to 1.0600 psy level.
If not so the price will be ranging between the levels.

  • Recommendation for long: watch close price to break 1.1494 for possible buy trade
  • Recommendation to go short: watch close price to break 1.0673 support level for possible sell trade with 1.0600 as the target
  • Trading Summary: ranging bearish

Weekly Outlook for EUR/USD by Morgan Stanley (adapted from the article)

Morgan Stanley made a fundamental forecast for EUR/USD related to the price movement - they estimated for this pair to be in ranging bearish in the near future up to the year-end for example: "EUR is likely to remain an underperformer in the current environment. Monetary divergence between the ECB and the Fed should keep the currency under pressure. The main risk to our EUR view would be a selloff in risk into the first Fed hike. This would likely drive some repatriation and funding unwinds, which would support EUR given its funding status. Overall, we maintain our bearish view."


Let's evaluate this forecast from the technical point of view.
As we see from the chart above - weekly price is located below 100 period SMA (100 SMA) and 200 period SMA (200 SMA)  for the bearish breakdown: the price is trying to break 1.0600 psy support level from above to below for the bearish breakdown to be continuing. And the next nearest target with this situation is 1.0461 support level.

  • Recommendation for long: N/A
  • Recommendation to go short: watch D1 price to break 1.0600 support level for 1.0461 as the next bearish target.
  • Trading Summary: bearish

Strategists See EUR/USD at 1.04-1.05 Ahead of December ECB Meet (based on the article)

Jeremy Stretch of CIBC World Markets Inc:

  • "Since the October ECB statement the market has been increasingly fixated by presumptions of a deposit rate cut of at least 10bp, this being set against an extension in ECB balance sheet, beyond the current September ’16 end date."
  • "However, a report that the central bank may be considering a two-tier tiered system of charges for banks holding cash (similar to that utilised by the SNB), alongside presumptions of additional bond buying have encouraged a spike in the Euribor strip, a sharp widening in US-Bund spreads and an aggressive slide in the EUR."
  • "Although the references to prospective ECB policy action are merely a reflection of non-attributable sources, the immediate market reaction underlines a broad negative bias."
  • "Hence into the ECB meeting expect ’2015 lows at 1.0458 to remain in view." 


From the technical point of view - daily price is breaking 1.0616 support for the 1.0565 level as the next bearish target. According to forecasts made by strategists - the price will be ranging within 1.05/1.04 levels which means the following - the price will be located within the following key support/resistance levels:

  • 1.0565 level, and
  • 1.0461 level.


The strategy: watch close D1 price to break 1.0616 support level for possible sell trade with 1.0565 level as the next bearish target.
