EUR/JPY Technical Analysis: October 18, 2016
The EUR/JPY pair has recently experienced a trading high of 116.30, a long shot from September’s monthly low of 112.00 points. The currency pair backtracked from the Fibonacci levels of 23.6 and 38.2 last week after support levels went up to 1114.00-114.12 due to the 20-50 DMA, as well as the Fibonacci levels of 50.0. A breach beyond this level might cause a drop at 113.00 and 112.00, which is in line with the weekly and monthly time frames for the currency pair.
The EUR will be reliant on this coming Thursday’s events, with the European Central Bank seemingly uncertain on whether to increase stimulus to an already expanded policy due to increasing inflation rates and an increase in momentum levels as suggested by growth indicators. However, the ECB still has to remedy the decrease in supply as a means to keep its current program in line and make way for another program, albeit at a reduced level.
Market players are expecting a particularly uneventful ECB statement due to speculations of an unchanged policy and ECB merely repeating its calls for politicians to improve structural reforms in order to boost economic growth in the European Union and to increase inflation in the region.

For the USD/CAD pair, the pair decreased by 0.08% during the last trading session, with the currency pair now trading at 1.3129 prior to the expected rate statement release from the Bank of Canada on Wednesday. The CAD decreased in value due to the decrease in crude oil prices last Monday, and the CAD will be dependent on the BoC’s rate statement on Wednesday, with the BoC expected to become more dovish in spite of little chances of an interest rate cut within the week, mostly due to the expected interest rate hike of the Federal Reserve later this year.

USD/CNH Fundamental Analysis: October 21, 2016
The pair USD/CNH is in struggle as the People’s Bank of China is about to release its quandary where its decision and its expected consequences is fixed and cannot be change. It is pressured towards the 6.75 level because of USD gains overnight. Traders are expected to contemplate and not rush on its actions to scrutinize the government-owned banks who are said to be on bidding. However, if depreciation continues towards the year-end it should go higher to counteract the pressure. Plus, the short-term pressure escalates with high demand to repay debt or extend operations globally that induces corporate demand for dollars.

AUD/USD Fundamental Analysis: October 21, 2016
Yesterday, the Australian dollar slumped low against the U.S. dollar because of the release of Domestic Employment data that showed below expectations while U.S. dollar rallied
The European Central Bank remained undecided on their monetary policies taking into consideration the Quantitative Easing would be extended this year-end. The borrowing remained to be zero and is far from changing soon. Hence, the prices for short-term are set to be lowered. The central bank’s decision would propel U.S. dollars higher and would have an impact on the Australian dollar.
The front-end bond yield in Australia also declined along with the depreciation of Aussie. Investors and traders expect that the Reserve Bank of Australia would not rush its decision in monetary policies, instead to analyze the status of the economy for a longer period of time.
Currently, the trend for the pair is Bearish with the prices being dragged down by frustrating job reports. Although there has been slight increase for the job reports that lessen the impact of the it to the currency but it was still not enough to affect the trend and go higher. When the physiological levels react the .7620 to .7593 levels, this may become a problem for sellers.

GBP/USD Fundamental Analysis: October 21, 2016
The GBP/USD accumulated an additional 27 points even though the greenbacks established a very weak performance. The price is trading at 1.5492 but the financial market rested in a placid manner due to the remarks from the BoE Governor Carney.
The Canadian economist is leading on the ongoing Brexit deliberation but insignificantly made no signal at the moment. The incumbent chief will conduct a formal speech and the impact of the EU exit on the central bank’s capacity to govern the economy as well as to give refuge to the banking sector of the country will be discuss.
Last month, Carney stated that the clearer depiction for the UK rates will be established during the year-end despite of the inflation headlines and global growth concerns.

GBP/USD Technical Analysis: October 21, 2016
The GBP/USD pair closed down the last trading session with little activity after the pair was unable to break through a large-scale resistance at the 1.2330 region. The sterling pound suffered during the first part of the London trading session after the release of retail sales data for September turned out to be a major disappointment for investors and traders. The initial demand for the EUR/GBP also increased significantly due to a reaction from investors after the release of the ECB’s statement, causing the GBP/USD to further plummet to a daily basis of 1.2209 points. However, the pair was able to revert back to its present value of 1.2260 during the New York session.
The general risk for the GBP/USD is currently leaning towards the negative territory, especially if the currency pair fails to go back to the 1.2300 region. The 4-hour chart for the currency pair is exhibiting a bearish-neutral stance, with the pair’s momentum possibly going over the downside with a significant downward curve.
Meanwhile, the pair’s RSI levels could possibly consolidate at 48 and the price could hit the 20 SMA. The currency pair might decline further to the 1.2100 trading range if selling interest gets reverted below the pair’s daily lows.

USD/CAD Fundamental Analysis: October 21, 2016
The USD/CAD pair exhibited extreme volatility during the last trading session which was mainly caused by a slew of Canadian news and events which were consecutively released during the session. First was the release of the CAD’s overnight rate which came out at the expected range of 0.5%. The Canadian monetary policy report also came out and came in short of the previous predictions by 1.1%. This caused the USD/CAD pair to break through the 1.3100 range and also attempted to move towards the 1.3000 region.
The data for the oil inventory reports was also released, as well as the Bank of Canada’s press conference details which showed a massive decrease in the overall inventory, triggering an increase in oil prices and increasing the value of the CAD.
Support levels for the USD/CAD pair is currently at 1.3060, 1.3000 and could possibly dip into 1.2930. Resistance levels for the currency pair is expected to be at 1.3120, which was already broken by the currency pair and could possibly go over the 1.3250 region since the pair is currently at the 1.3141 region. The market is not expecting any major economic news releases from US or Canada any time soon, and traders are still speculating that the effects from yesterday’s subsequent releases would still have an influence on the currency pair’s value.
