USD/CHF Technical Analysis For May 4, 2011

Posted: 04 May 2011 01:55 AM PDT

By ForexMansion.com

 
The USD/CHF poked through the lows today, bounced, and then started to fall again. The pair looks very weak, and buying it would simply be reckless trading. By waiting for bounces, you can get a better price from which to sell. Of course, there are always more sellers waiting below as well. For now, sell rallies and fresh lows.

By ForexMansion.com

 
The GBP/JPY fell really hard today, heading down towards the 133.50 area, the next support area. The central banks are still below, and should be worried about if you are now short this pair. The 133 area looks rather supportive as well, and of course any move by the central banks will certainly launch this pair. Look for supportive action before going long again.

The USD/CAD pair has bounced for the second day in a row, as the commodity markets fell hard today.

AUD/USD finally had a sharp drop in value today, and the market should be welcoming to that reality. The truth is that this pair needs to fall even further as the parabolic nature of the recent action requires it before too long.

The EUR/JPY fell really hard today, but bounced in later trading forming a hammer and showing the 120 area to be supportive again. This area could be a launching point for new buyers as we try to race upwards with a possible new bull move. Shorting isn't advised as we have central banks below, and also made a higher low last time we fell. The market looks to be supportive at this level, and a break of the highs today would be a buy signal.

The EUR/USD pair had a slightly bullish day today again, but the charts are starting to look a little tired at this level. It cannot be ignored that the last two days have formed shooting stars, and could be pointing south. The market has support below at 1.45 and 1.46 as well. Because of this, shorting isn't recommended, but rather waiting for the pullback is. Buying at those levels might be the move to make.
