Will May show consumers curtailing spending in May? We already know that consumers bought less cars in May, and therefore the headline retail sales number will be weak. Overall sales are expected to decline 0.3%, after a 0.5% gain in April.

The USD/JPY rose and then fell on Monday, causing the daily candle to form a shooting star-like candle for the day. The 80 level is a strong area of support, but this candle shows that the bulls couldn't hang onto the gains for the day.

USD/CHF Technical For Analysis June 14, 2011

Posted: 13 Jun 2011 10:14 AM PDT

By ForexMansion.com

 
The USD/CHF had a very whippy day on Monday, rising and falling – only to end the day much lower. The pair looks set to retest the all-time lows again, and this jives well with the overall scene of the markets as the "rally" for the day in many of the markets was very anemic and fell apart towards the end of the day. The Swiss franc is still the #1 currency for traders at the moment.

The USD/CAD pair continues to struggle as it is stuck between the 0.97 and 0.9850 levels. The pair had another tight range from Monday, and it looks like we are simply waiting to see what the market wants now. At this point – we have no real opinion on this pair as it simply won't move. Of course, there will be a move – and it will be strong. Keep your eyes open.

The NZD/USD pair fell Monday, as traders reacted to reports of another earthquake in the Christchurch area. The earthquake damage was fairly minor, and as such the pair did rebound a bit – showing the support to be holding at the 0.81 area. Because of this, we are still bullish, and would buy on supportive price action around that large figure.

The GBP/USD pair rose and rose hard on Monday, and thus showing that the traders haven't given up on the Pound quite yet. The area is still not in the support or resistance zones that we are watching, so there isn't necessarily a trade here, but these types of days will certainly be figured into any calculations we make in case of a break out above 1.65, as it shows nice underlying strength.

The GBP/JPY pair had a very bullish day on Monday, and unlike the USD and EUR – looks fairly strong against the Yen. Because of this, and the fact that the central banks are waiting below, we feel that if you want to sell the Yen, it should be against the Pound. This is by far the healthiest of the three yen-related pairs we follow here at ForexMansion.com, and therefore our favorite at the moment. A break above 132 is a strong signal to buy.

GBP/CHF Technical For Analysis June 14, 2011

Posted: 13 Jun 2011 10:09 AM PDT

The GBP/CHF fell hard, but ended up bouncing hard by the end of the trading day on Monday. The pair looks weak still, but perhaps it is unwilling to let go of the consolidation that it finds itself in at the moment. The 1.36 area is the area we need to see a close below in order to get into this pair on the sell side. We aren't willing to buy at this point, as the trend is strong and clear – and very bearish.

EUR/USD Technical For Analysis June 14, 2011

Posted: 13 Jun 2011 10:08 AM PDT

By ForexMansion.com

 
The EUR/USD rose on Monday, as there is speculation that the Euro zone will take a Greek default without much collateral damage. The pair is under the 1.45 area, an area it needs to clear again to get us bullish on this pair. In the meantime, the real risk is to the downside. If we fall below the 1.43 area, it will signal a larger selloff. If not, we may chop around a bit for the near-term.

EUR/JPY Technical For Analysis June 14, 2011

By ForexMansion.com

 
The EUR/JPY pair rose on Monday, but didn't put much of a dent in the losses felt on Friday. Because of this, we feel that the market is showing us that it wants to fall again, and we aren't willing to argue with it. We aren't willing to argue with 5 central banks sitting below, waiting to intervene either. Because of this, we are very neutral on this pair.

EUR/GBP Technical For Analysis June 14, 2011

Posted: 13 Jun 2011 10:07 AM PDT

By ForexMansion.com

 
The EUR/GBP pair fell during the Monday session, and parked not only at the session lows – but it also is sitting there are the all-important 0.88 level. The area has been a magnet for price, and looks to continue that going forward. Because of that, we aren't trading this pair at the moment, although we should say that there is certainly more risk holding the EUR side of this pair than the GBP. A strong move down would get us selling as we part ways with the … [visit site to read more] or compare Best Credit Cards and Balance Transfer Credit Cards


EUR/CHF Technical For Analysis June 14, 2011

Posted: 13 Jun 2011 10:06 AM PDT

By ForexMansion.com

 
The EUR/CHF pair had a wild day on Monday as the market rocked back and forth, only to finish near the opening price. This forms a massive doji on the daily chart, and now it appears that the 1.20 doesn't want to go quietly. However, we had a projected target of 1.16 a while back, and we still stand by that call. The pair is still a "sell on strength" type of pair.

AUD/USD Technical For Analysis June 14, 2011

Posted: 13 Jun 2011 10:05 AM PDT

By ForexMansion.com

 
The AUD/USD rose and popped above the 1.06 level, and showed that the 1.05 area is still intact as far as terms of support. The market will certainly have to define whether or not this area holds as support, and if any of the recent action is indicative of what could happen – it looks good. We are buyers if we can break above the Monday highs. Below 1.05 we might sell, but would have to be aware that 1.02 is massive support.

AUD/NZD Technical For Analysis June 14, 2011

Posted: 13 Jun 2011 10:03 AM PDT

By ForexMansion.com

 
The AUD/NZD pair rose on Monday, but stopped just at the 1.30 mark. The 1.30 area is a major support and resistance area that has given way for the bears, and is now being retested. The retest of this level could be confirmed on Tuesday if we fall. On a somewhat decent fall, we would sell. If we rise in value, we will wait for another retest of 1.30 as support in order to buy.
