GBP/USD Technical Analysis: October 4, 2016
The sterling pound was hit hard during the last trading session after UK Prime Minister Theresa May released a statement saying that the UK will be starting its formal process of leaving the European Union this coming March 2017. The GBP/USD pair is aligned fundamentally and technically, and analysts are expecting a retesting of the pair at 1.2796 points. The currency pair is now in full bearish stance.
The GBP/USD’s inner trend line, bearish channels, 38.2, L3, and multiple rejection points at POC 1.2915-30 might cause the pair’s price to become rejected if another retracement occurs. However, if the GBP/USD would extend at the 1.2845 trading range, then there is a possibility that the pair would go beyond the 1.2796 trading range.
In order to maintain its short-term bearish stance, then the currency pair must be able to stay below the 1.2950 trading range.

Technical Analysis for USD/JPY: October 4, 2016
The USD/JPY pair surged to attain its two-week high of 102.27 points as a result of positive risk appetite after easing Deutsche Bank issues and OPEC oil statements increased the possibility of an interest rate hike in December.
Meanwhile, the Japanese yen is still in the bottom rung of its trading range for the sixth straight session, its longest bottom-trend streak since March. The currency pair bottomed out at the 100.08 range last week after an increase in oil prices market risk-ons, as well as easing in Deutsche Bank concerns.
Moreover, the Japanese yen is most likely to increase its selling power in the Asian session today after foreign QE talks by the Bank of Japan is seen to be gaining momentum. The currency pair is now dependent at the wider market sentiment. The market will now be focusing on the shares of banking firm Deutsche Bank, which has previously ended Monday’s trading session with marginal losses.
If the USD/JPY pair manages to break above the 102.65 trading range, then this would expose the pair to the 102.78 range and go beyond an expected hurdle at 103.54 points. However, if the pair would go below its support levels of 102.00, then this could trigger a movement towards 101.57 points, which would then lead to lows at 101.00 points.

USD/JPY Fundamental Analysis: October 4 2016
On Monday marks the fifth time that the greens earned larger against the yen while USDJPY have ended its route at 101.635. In addition to it, the Japanese currency had been barely affected to the Tankan survey conducted by the Bank of Japan. The economic assessment notified that the confidence level of the leading Japanese manufacturers have laid low from July to September while the service-sector sentiment fall off for almost two years while dealers have been affected also as the economic data were publicized last week.
The statistics bureau of Japan declared that there is an inflation ongoing in the core consumer price by 0.5%. The changes became apparent during the month of July.
The greenbacks have increased due to the positive report finalized by the U.S ISM Manufacturing PMI with an estimate score above the 50.4 to 51.5 compared to previous month with an average below 50.0 to 49.4. Due to the U.S. Construction Spending report, the USD were able to limit its profit seeing that the data came below at 0.7%.
Major economic news are not yet available in the U.S as of today, causing the pair to be determined as an in-demand assets for the investors. The improvement made in the Asian and European stock market have resulted for a stronger pair for the financial sector of the United States.
Nevertheless, it is recommended that capitalist should be very cautious in acquiring yen and greens due to the issues concerning the market sentiment preceding the U.S. Non-Farm Payrolls report to be issued on Friday.
Additionally, the status of the crude oil should also be watched over since prices were accelerating that might originate a pressured area for the USD by which the yen will support.

GBP/JPY Technical Analysis: October 4, 2016
After the announcement of UK Prime Minister Theresa May saying Brexit will proceed and will undergo the formal process of withdrawal from European Union which will end in 2019. This has shakened currency trading as GBP abruptly fell against other currencies such as USD, Euro and Japanese Yen. British Pound is performing well as its recent release on Monday morning of UK Manufacturing PMI is at 55.4 which is higher than the 52.1 expectation. However, this is not sufficient to stabilize another repercussion of Brexit.
On the contrary, safe haven assets like Gold and Yen are gaining advantage in this as the environment becomes riskier and weaker. The pair GBP/JPY declined to 130.00 support level when not to long ago it has been in a weak post-Brexit lows. It declined lower than 130.00 level many times on an intraday basis yet it moved steadily for three months since Britain’s exit last June.
The announcement would add tension on the pound while this would put forward Yen. A breakdown below 130.00 could continue the downtrend for more than a year reaching a record of four-year low for the pair. The next support target is at 125.00 level.

Fundamental Analysis for EUR/USD: October 5, 2016
The EUR/USD pair had increased volatility levels and was able to break through the small-scale trading range and went through the larger-scale trading range of 1.1145 and 1.1245 points. The early part of the trading session saw the USD gaining strength after it lost a significant amount of its value last week. The euro was also able to break through its previous support levels of 1.1200 to gain new support levels of 1.1145 before going as low as 1.1137 points. The EUR/USD pair was also affected by the news that the ECB is currently studying the tapering of the QE.
The EUR/USD went back at 1.1200 after the ECB rumors and went as far as 1.1238 before another headline was released, saying that this particular rumor with regards to the QE was not discussed in any of the ECB’s meetings, prompting the currency pair to go back down at 1.1200 points.
This highly volatile movement of the currency pair is a positive sign for traders who are currently looking for market volatility. The market is currently not expecting any major news announcements from the EU, with the US ADP Non-Farm Employment data the only announcement expected from the US market. The ADP data will act as a precursor for the NFP announcement on Friday which is expected to provide a useful insight on the current state of the US economy.

Fundamental Analysis for USD/CAD: October 5, 2016
The recent increase in value of the USD has caused certain currency pairs like the USD/CAD to move forward with their bullish runs, a move that has long since been anticipated for the currency pair during the past week. The USD/CAD pair was able to push through its resistance levels at 1.3140 points, even going beyond 1.3170 where it was met with marginal resistance and went with support levels after a gain of 1.3140 points.
The Canadian and US trading sessions saw the USD increase its value by a significant margin and has caused the USD/CAD to go through the 1.3200 trading range, and market players are expecting that the pair will be able to reach its short-term targets at 1.3240 and 1.3280 with relative ease in just a few days. The currency pair is now at the support level of 1.3173 but is still expected to go above its present trading range.
Market players are now awaiting the release of the Canadian trade balance data and the ADP Non-Farm Employment data from the US. These economic data should give traders an idea of the relative strength of the two economies, as well as the possible impact of lowered oil prices on both countries. This could then lead to an increased volatility towards the end of the next trading session.

Fundamental Analysis for USD/JPY: October 5, 2016
The USD increased in relation to the Japanese yen during the last trading session, with the USD/JPY pair closing the session at 102.90 points after increasing by +1.24% or 1.265 points. The pair’s current value is its highest trading level since September 15, putting pressure on the currency pair to exceed its highest level last September 14 at 103.351 points.
The increase in the USD was mostly due to a significant increase in US Treasury yields. The positive ISM Manufacturing PMI data released on Monday triggered an upsurge in Treasury yields, increasing the possibility of an interest rate hike this coming December. Comments from Fed officials also strengthened the US dollar, after Federal Reserve President Jeffrey Lacker stated that there is a high probability that interest rates would be increased and that inflation rates would be put under control by increasing borrowing costs.
The CME Group’s FedWatch indicator also showed that traders are seeing a 63% chance that the Federal Reserve would increase its interest rates during its meeting on December 13-14, an 11% increase from the previous reading after the last Fed meeting on September. This was also cemented by comments from the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland’s President Loretta Mester, who called for higher interest rates from the Fed. Fed officials, however, are keeping their respective profiles low as of the moment.

GBP/USD Fundamental Analysis: October 5, 2016
The well-established strength of the U.S dollar since yesterday does not make sense over the sluggish status that the sterling is confronted with. The newly recovered positive performance of the greenbacks had worsen the condition of the pound. On Monday, sterling were tone down due to the remarks disclose by the Prime Minister May about EU exit timeline. Bullish investors shouldn't miss the chance to obtain the 1.2825 region considering that it is the point far from the referendum registry.
Upon the opening of the EU session had made the dollar to enhance its execution trades plus giving the bearish investors some favor on their part.
The 1.2825 level break off because the pair it promptly dropped through the 1.2800 region approaching to the Brexit low seen at the 1.2790 mark. Bullish investors had lesser number than the bears who continuously trying to smash the level 1.2750 and aims to go beyond 1.2718.
It is expected that the PMI will be release today as well as good news from UK but this doesn't make an impact against the bear train.

USD/JPY Technical Analysis: October 6, 2016
The USD/JPY pair is now trading at the 103.65 range after its value reverted back to the middle of the 103 range. The currency pair went back into the red zone in the middle of the Asian trading session but was still able to go well above the 103 trading handle. The USD/JPY closed down the recent session at 103.45 points, decreasing by -0.07%.
The currency pair is now collecting its rallies into per-month highs after consecutive US fundamentals all turned out to be on the positive territory, increasing the possibility of an interest rate hike by the Federal Reserve during the latter part of 2016. The release of the US non-farm payrolls data this coming Friday is seen as a determinant as to whether the Federal Reserve will be pushing through with its interest rate hike in December.
The USD/JPY’s resistance levels are now at the 103.66 range. If the currency pair would be able to break through this particular range, then the pair could go within the 103.89 range and could possibly break through 104.14. However, if the pair further decreases its value, then it could hit immediate support levels at 103.00, 102.68 and even lower at the 102.25 range.
