Weekly Foreign Exchange Price & Time at a Glance:

Weekly Price & Time Analysis: EUR/USD

Charts Created using Marketscope – Prepared by Kristian Kerr

• EUR/USD came under aggressive pressure this past week after failing to overcome key resistance at 1.3970
• Our longer-term trend bias is positive while above 1.3730
• Fibonacci resistance at 1.3970 remains key and needs to be convincingly overcome to signal the ‘all clear’ for a more important run higher
• A cycle turn window is next week
• A move under 1.3730 will turn us negative on the Euro

Weekly EUR/USD Strategy: May look to sell soon if price action confirms a break.

Weekly Price & Time Analysis: USD/JPY

Charts Created using Marketscope – Prepared by Kristian Kerr

• USD/JPY found support this week near the 4th square root relationship of the year’s high around 101.35
• Our broader bias is negative in the rate while below 104.40
• The year’s low near 100.75 is critical support with a move below having very ominous implications for the exchange rate
• A cycle turn window is seen around the middle of next week
• A weekly close back over 104.40 would turn us positive again on USD/JPY

Weekly USD/JPY Strategy: We like tactical short positions in USD/JPY while below 104.40 on a weekly close basis.

Weekly Price & Time Analysis: GOLD

Charts Created using Marketscope – Prepared by Kristian Kerr

• XAU/USD touched its highest level since early September during the Monday cycle turn window before turning sharply lower from the 6th square root relationship of the 2013 low
• Weakness below 1348 has turned us negative on the metal
• A confluence of several key Fibonacci and Gann levels between 1310/18 needs to be broken to confirm that a more important move lower is indeed underway
• The next important turn window is seen in early April
• A daily close back over 1380 would turn us positive again on the metal

Weekly XAU/USD Strategy: Like selling into strength against 1380.
