EUR/USD
Looking at the weekly chart, we can see that prices are currently testing our support target at 1.17800, which coincides with 78.6% Fibonacci retracement. The daily time frame echoes the same bullish view as well and we could see a bounce above our support target at 1.17800.
On the H4 timeframe, prices could see further upside before it reaches our resistance level at 1.18327, in line with the graphical resistance level and 38.2% Fibonacci retracement. Keeping in mind that prices are sitting on a key support level on the daily and weekly time frames, a break above our H4 resistance level at 1.18327 could see a further upside to our next resistance target at 1.18760.
Areas of consideration:
- 18327 resistance area found on the H4 time frame
- 17500 support area found on the H4 time frame

Areas of consideration:
- 37986 resistance area found on the H4 time frame
- 36800 support area found on H4 timeframe
AUD/USD
From the Weekly timeframe, we can see that the price is trending under the ascending trendline support turned-resistance drawn from 9th March (2020). Currently, the price has pushed away from the trendline resistance and is testing the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement taken 2nd Nov (2020) swing low, to 22nd Fed (2021) swing high, if price manages to close beneath we may potentially see a stronger drop towards the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level.
On the Daily timeframe, we are seeing a complete head and shoulder pattern where we may expect a further drop. Lastly, on the H4, the price has reversed from a Fibonacci confluence level of 0.7645, consisting of 127% Fibonacci retracement and 161.8% Fibonacci extension. We may see a push towards the weekly and Daily support level at 0.75556, in line with the previous swing low.
Areas of consideration:
- H4 showing bearish momentum and may find support at 0.75556
- The daily time frame showed a complete bearish head and shoulder pattern.
- Weekly time shows price reversed from trendline resistance area.

Areas of consideration:

- 469 possible downside target
USD/CAD
Looking at the weekly chart, the price has pushed lower and showed a reversal at 1.23749, where the Fibonacci confluences are. Price seems to be returning to the descending trendline, in line with the 78.6% Fibonacci retracement level at 1.26565.

Areas of consideration:
- H4 may push further up north from 1.2578 towards 1.26564
- Daily and weekly time frames are both showing short-term bullish momentum.
USD/CHF
USD/CHF continues to approach the weekly 0.95000 resistance level in line with our 61.8% Fibonacci retracement. The daily chart shows a further rise above the daily 0.92300 support level as the price approaches the key 0.95000 resistance level. We could potentially see the price rise further to test the weekly 0.95000 resistance level.
On the H4 chart, we see that price has broken above the 0.93800 resistance-turned-support level. We note that the price is now holding above the moving average support, showing bullish pressure in line with our bullish bias. We could potentially see price make a further rise up to test the weekly 0.95000 key resistance level. Otherwise, should the price fail to hold above the 0.93800 resistance-turned-support, we could see a stronger pullback towards the daily 0.92300 support.
Areas of consideration:
- Price broke above the 0.93800 resistance-turned-support.
- Price could potentially push higher to test the weekly 0.95000 resistance level.
Dow Jones Industrial Average
On the weekly chart, the price continues to hold between 31190 support and 34600 resistance. Traders should continue watching these two long-term levels. On the Daily, we see price pulling back, however technical indicators continue to showroom for further bullish momentum. Buyers could possibly look to add to their longs on any price pullbacks with the possible target at 34600 weekly resistance. Otherwise, failure to hold above 31190 could see price pullback towards weekly support at 29570.
On the H4, the price tested and bounced above 32148 support and is now holding between 33590 resistance and 32148 support. With price still holding above a moving average and the indicator still shows room for further bullish upside, a limited upside push up above 32148 support towards 33590 resistance could be possible. Otherwise, failure to hold above 32148 support could see price pullback towards 31190 weekly support.
Areas of consideration:
- Watch short term H4 support at 32148
- Price still holding above moving average on both short term H4 and long term weekly timeframes
XAU/USD (GOLD)
On the weekly timeframe, gold is currently holding between 1774 resistance and 1670 support. Long-term traders should continue to watch these two levels as a break of either will see price swing in that direction. However, we note that the price is still holding below the long-term moving average. On the daily chart, we see price drifting sideways whilst holding below 1774 resistance. A limited push down to test 1670 support could be likely. As long as 1774 resistance is not broken, sellers can watch for opportunities to sell on further rise. Otherwise, a break above 1774 resistance should see the price swing the other way.
On the 4H timeframe, the price is testing and holding above the 1726 support levels. With stochastic reacting above support where price bounced in the past, we still see a low probability bullish scenario whereby a further push up towards weekly and daily resistance at 1774 could be possible. Otherwise, failure to hold above 1726 support could see price drop deeper towards the 1699 level
Areas of consideration:
- Watch closely 1726 support on the H4
- Short term H4 technical indicators showing room for further upside
