Best Financial Markets Analysis Article Last November saw a bear break that, in the end, amounted to a type of blow-off move, with subsequent quick recovery putting the bulls in contention once more. However, there were key resistances to overcome, and one of which has just been violated…

The FX Trader’s view

MONTHLY CHART:

In the Commodity Specialist Guide we have this year continued to note an interesting positive RSI divergence on the Monthly chart, suggesting that long term bears were tiring.

WEEKLY CHART:

On the Weekly chart note the clear falling resistance line, providing a cap on action in 2010.

This follows the false break below old 87.11 support.

This line, running through 91.70 currently, was violated yesterday (although a weekly close above this would be preferable), and now a further recovery past the 93.76 early Jan high would confirm a new bull trend was underway.

DAILY CHART:

This year’s slip back found good support from the 61.8% retracement, coinciding with the early Oct-09 low just under 88.00.

In the FX Specialist Guide we have said that a recovery/close above the 92.14 19-Feb high would provide an initial bull signal (just seen yesterday), the second being the continuation above the 93.76 Jan high.

A target area opens up – an equality target just above 97.00 (Nov-Jan upleg extended off 88.10 Feb low), the 76.4% recovery level around 97.50 and higher Fibonacci projection at 98.75.

At this stage a drop back and close below the 90.00/89.75 area would negate the current s/term positive picture.
