Volatile Movements Expected Today, be Prepared for a Bumpy NFP Ride!

For the readers’ benefit:

Price action confirmation: simply means traders will likely wait for price action to confirm a level by consuming the opposing supply or demand area, then entering a trade on a possible retracement, this may occur on the lower timeframes also.

Pending orders: means pending orders are likely seen.


EUR/USD:

Daily TF.

The sellers seem to be showing interest around the daily supply level at 1.37342-1.36890, with the first logical trouble area being seen around daily demand below at 1.34770-1.35557.

4hr TF.

Price has reacted nicely off of the 4hr supply level at 1.37235-1.37005 trading down to the 4hr S/R flip level area at 1.36666, which we favored to happen in the last analysis. An area to watch out for trouble is 1.36454 (marked with an x) which was a prior decision point to rally price above the 4hr S/R flip mentioned above,  so be prepared for a reaction here. If price manages to consume the buyers around the decision point level just mentioned, we have a good chance of seeing the round number 1.36000 being hit below.

As reported in the last analysis, price is currently seen trading within weekly demand at 1.34770-1.36771, so anyone short from the 4hr supply area at 1.37235-1.37005 should watch their position very carefully for any hint that we may be changing direction.

Pending/P.A confirmation orders:

  • No pending buy orders (Green line) are seen in the current market environment.
  • P.A confirmation buy orders (Red line) are seen just above demand (1.35036-1.35312) at 1.35433. The reason behind us placing a P.A confirmation buy order here, rather than a pending buy order is because the aforementioned demand area appears weak as deep spikes have been seen recently (marked with two arrows), and also the circled tail/spike could have cleared out the majority of buy orders as it left on its advance.
  • P.A confirmation buy orders (Red line) are seen just above the round number 1.36000 at 1.36052. The reason for a P.A confirmation buy order rather than a pending buy order is because pro money tends to spike the psychological round number levels often, which consequently stops out countless traders, hence the need to wait for confirmation here.
  • The pending sell order (Green line) set at 1.36955 just below supply at 1.37235-1.37005 is now active; Our first target at the S/R flip level has been hit (1.36666), so do keep a close eye on our second target located at the round number 1.36000 below.
  • Pending sell orders (Green line) are seen just below supply (1.37749-1.37450) at 1.37414. A pending sell order is set here as we believe this 4hr supply is good for at least a bounce as it still remains fresh/untouched.

Quick Recap:

The daily timeframe shows the sellers are beginning to show interest around daily supply at 1.37342-1.36890, while on the 4hr timeframe we currently have an active sell position in the market just under 4hr supply (1.37235-1.37005) at 1.36995. Price has recently hit our first take-profit target at 1.36666, with our second target being seen below at the round number 1.36000.  Traders should remain aware that before our second target has a chance of being filled, we have a trouble (decision point) area at 1.36454 to overcome first, so do keep an eye out for this.

GBP/USD:

4hr TF.

A quick reminder of where we are in the higher timeframes is always good, no matter which timeframe one trades. The buyers on the weekly timeframe are showing little sign of throwing in the towel as price is seen rallying deeper into weekly supply at 1.76290-1.70490.  The buyers on the daily timeframe still seem to be heading in one direction that is north towards daily supply at 1.76290-1.73110.

On the 4hr timeframe, the buyers appear to be taking a breather at the moment; this is more than likely traders closing some of their positions, rather than sellers actually showing genuine interest. Price remains capped between the round numbers 1.72000 and 1.71000, with a break above 1.72000 being more likely than price breaking below 1.71000.

Pending/P.A confirmation orders:

  • Pending buy orders (Green line) are seen just above the decision point (demand) area (1.70066-1.70272) at 1.70288. A pending order is set here as we believe this area will very likely see a bullish reaction, even if only for a bounce, as this is likely the work of pro money, meaning they may not have filled all their buy orders around this level, thus unfilled orders may still be lurking there.
  • New P.A confirmation buy orders (Red line) are seen around the round number 1.71000 at 1.71030. It would not be wise for us to place a pending buy order here because we have no logical area for a stop-loss order, and pro money tend to test these areas with (sometimes) deep spikes, hence the need to wait for confirmation.
  • The P.A confirmation buy order (Red line) set just above the round number 1.68000 at 1.68038has been removed. Price rallied too far from the entry level.
  • P.A confirmation buy orders (Red line) are seen just above minor support (1.69431) at 1.69482. A reaction north is likely to be seen here, however we are currently seeing price trading within higher-timeframe supply on the weekly timeframe at 1.76290-1.70490, and with the spikes/tails seen south below the area (marked with arrows), this does not exactly instill much confidence in this level, hence the need for a confirmation buy order, rather than a pending buy order.
  • No pending sell orders (Green line) are seen in the current market environment.
  • No P.A confirmation sell orders (Red line) are seen in the current market environment.

Quick Recap:

The weekly timeframe still shows relentless buying deeper into weekly supply at 1.76290-1.70490, with price on the daily timeframe still seen advancing possibly to daily supply at 1.76290-1.73110. Buyers seem to be taking a short break on the 4hr timeframe with price being seen capped between round numbers1.72000 and 1.71000. Price will likely advance to at least 1.72000 before any serious sellers get involved especially with the volatility expected today, Ideally, a break above the aforementioned round number could then very well give the daily timeframe buyers the push they need to reach daily supply above at 1.76290-1.73110 which in turn is very deep within weekly supply (levels above).

  • Areas to watch for buy orders: P.O: 1.70288 (SL: 1.69983 TP: Dependent on price approach).P.A.C: 1.69482 (likely to be set at 1.69176 TP: Dependent on approaching price action after the level has been confirmed) 1.71030 (SL: Dependent on approaching price action after the level has been confirmed TP: Dependent on approaching price action after the level has been confirmed).

AUD/USD:

Daily TF.

Price had indeed hit the fresh daily supply area at 0.95434-0.94862 after we saw a break of daily supply at 0.94468-0.93758 as reported may happen in the last analysis. Sellers are beginning to show interest at the fresh daily supply area just mentioned, with the first trouble area (demand) being seen around the S/D flip zone at 0.94468-0.93758.

audusddaily

4hr TF.

The buyers have been seriously active recently pushing price up to the round number 0.95000, and just missing the 4hr supply area at 0.95434-0.95057, which is located deep within the daily supply zone mentioned above. The 4hr supply area (now not visible on the chart) at 0.94809-0.94477 was indeed consumed as reported may well happen in the last analysis.

Our decision point demand area at 0.94132-0.94221 is still a valid place to look for buying opportunities even though we have hit daily supply already (levels above), if only for a bounce (pro money may use this area to take small profits from being short from daily supply above – hence the bounce), but do be prepared to close your position(s) at the first sign of trouble. Price has very little stopping it from reaching the decision point (demand) area just mentioned, so a drop to the downside is very likely to be seen especially with the volatility (NFP) expected today.

A push back up to the upside is still not out of the question though, as price may have created a dummy supply area (circled) at around 0.94959 to be faked later on up into 4hr supply at 0.95434-0.95057, thus giving pro money the liquidity they need for an overall sell-off which may well be seen today.

Pending/P.A confirmation orders:

  • Pending buy orders (Green line) are seen just above demand (0.93542-0.93670) at 0.93689.  A pending order was permitted to be set here due this demand area showing buying strength clearly created by pro money, meaning unfilled buy orders may still be lurking there.
  • Pending buy orders (Green line) are seen just above the decision point (demand) area (0.94132-0.94221) at 0.94244. A pending buy order was placed here because pro money will likely use this level to take some profits from being short around daily supply above at 0.95434-0.94862.
  • P.A confirmation buy orders (Red line) are seen just above demand (0.93186-0.93345) at 0.93361. The reason a P.A confirmation buy order was placed here rather than a pending buy order, is simply because previous price action shows the buyers in and around the demand area (levels above) may have been consumed with those deep spikes/tails marked with arrows.
  • New pending sell orders (Green line) are seen within supply (0.95434-0.95057) at 0.95178. A pending sell order is valid here since pro money may well push price up to 4hr supply just mentioned. The reason this may happen is sellers are clearly around this level indicating supply is there, pro money see this, and may take advantage of it by pushing price higher above supply (levels above) stopping out traders who were originally short there, thus handing over their stops which are now buy orders for pro money to sell into.
  • No P.A confirmation sell orders (Red line) are seen in the current market environment.

Quick Recap:

A bearish reaction has been seen within daily supply at 0.95434-0.94862, while on the 4hr timeframe, buyers have pushed price up to the round number 0.95000 just missing 4hr supply at 0.95434-0.95057 by a few pips where the sellers then were seen taking over. Price will likely do one of two things from here:

  1. Pro money will push price deeper into 4hr supply just mentioned above, filling our pending sell order at 0.95178.
  2. Pro money will push price down to the last decision point made at around 0.94132-0.94221 where we have a pending buy order set at 0.94244.
  • Areas to watch for buy orders: P.O: 0.93689 (SL: 0.93510 TP: Dependent on approaching price action) 0.94244 (SL: 0.94108 TP: Dependent on approaching price action)   P.A.C: 0.93361 (SL: Dependent on approaching price action after the level has been confirmed TP: Dependent on approaching price action after the level has been confirmed).

USD/JPY:

4hr TF.

The higher timeframes show traders are currently doing battle on the weekly timeframe around the weekly S/R flip level at 101.254, with the daily timeframe not seeing much action within demand (S/D flip area) at 101.532-100.787.

It was reported in the last analysis that:

What pro money may even do, instead of dropping to the round number below at 101.000 right away, is confuse the retail traders by pushing price up past the D/S flip area (levels above) thus allowing uninformed traders to jump on board the ‘beginning of a trend’. Pro money will then likely sell hard into all those buy orders at the most recent decision point (supply) at 101.709 to push price down to the round number (level above) for an overall rally higher in price as indicated by the  higher timeframes at the moment.

Now, taking the above into consideration, we can see that price did indeed attempt to advance up to our decision point level at 101.709 before a sell off was seen, but missed it by about four to five pips or so!

The above has no doubt already confused a hell of a lot of traders already, so what pro money may still do, to add to the confusion is to again push price up to our decision point (level above), only this time hitting it. We now need to think logically why pro money would do this. Imagine how many sellers are going to be attempting to sell at the high 101.651 marked with an x on the lower timeframes, what would happen to those orders once/if pro money pushed price through them hitting most of the stops? They would then be buy orders, these buy orders are liquidity to pro money, thus allowing them to sell hard into all those orders pushing price down to the round number 101.000 before any higher prices are seen.

Pending/P.A confirmation orders:

  • No pending buy orders (Green line) are seen in the current market environment.
  • P.A confirmation buy orders (red line) are seen just above the round number (101.000) at 101.027. The reason a P.A confirmation buy order was used here is because pro money on a regular basis perform deep spikes through these levels stopping countless traders out, hence the need to wait for confirmation.
  • Pending sell orders (Green line) are seen at 102.367. A pending order is valid here since this is the area where pro money made the ‘decision’ to break the low 102.113 and take prices lower into what was demand (101.427-101.660 seen on Monday 30th June analysis) at the time, meaning unfilled sell orders were likely left there in the process.
  • Pending sell orders (Green line) are seen at a decision point (102.103) at 102.084. Pending sell orders are viable here due to this being an important  decision point level where pro money decided  to break multiple lows and visit what was demand (101.427-101.660 seen on Monday 30th June analysis) at the time, thus giving the impression unfilled sell orders may be left there as price did change direction very quickly.
  • Pending sell orders (Green line) are seen just below the decision point (101.709) at 101.691. A pending order was permitted to be placed here since pro money clearly made a decision to consume the majority of the buyers around  what was demand at 101.427-101.660 (seen on Monday 30th June analysis) at the time, meaning there were more than likely unfilled sell orders left behind in the process.
  • No P.A confirmation sell orders (Red line) are seen in the current market environment.

Quick Recap:

The higher timeframes show traders are currently doing battle on the weekly timeframe around the weekly S/R flip level at 101.254, with the daily timeframe not seeing much action within demand (S/D flip area) at 101.532-100.787. The 4hr timeframe shows the buyers made an advance towards our decision point level at 101.709, (where we currently have a pending sell order waiting at 101.691) missing it by about four to five pips or so. Price will still likely see our pending sell order (level above) hit, especially with today’s volatility, as pro money will likely use this level to hammer price down to around the round number area 101.000 before any higher prices are seen.

EUR/GBP:

Weekly TF.

The sellers are seen to be taking even more control within weekly demand at 0.79596-0.80299, a break below here could see price hitting weekly demand at 0.77010-0.79140.

eurgbpweekly

Daily TF.

With price appearing like it will break weekly demand (see above); the daily timeframe shows price entering deeper within daily demand at 0.79282-0.79649. A break below here could very well mean price may hit support way down below at 0.77533, take a look at chart two to see why we think this.

Chart 1:

Chart 2:

4hr TF.

It was reported in the last analysis that:

Price appears to have also consumed some of the buyers around the low 0.79826, which in turn has opened up a path for sellers to push price all the way down to 4hr demand at 0.79405-0.79552. Why is there now a path down to the aforementioned 4hr demand area? Notice the trendline; this is used to resemble pro money actions. Look at the way price moved, higher highs were seen, then price was pushed back down consuming buyers as price was rallying higher, thus clearing the path of demand for the sellers.

Price has indeed done exactly as reported it may do, with price now trading around 4hr demand at 0.79405-0.79552. We still cannot ignore the fact we are in higher-timeframe demand (see above), so higher prices are still to be expected from this 4hr demand area just mentioned.

If price does break the aforementioned 4hr demand area south, we will likely see the round number below at 0.79000 being hit on this timeframe.

Pending/P.A confirmation orders:

  • A pending buy order (Green line) has been set at 0.79580 just above demand at 0.79405-0.79552 which is now active; do keep a close eye on our first target set at 0.79826.
  • No P.A confirmation buy orders (Red line) are seen in the current market environment.
  • No pending sell orders (Green line) are seen in the current market environment.
  • P.A confirmation sell orders (Red line) under the S/R flip level 0.81403 at 0.81393 is an area where a reaction is likely, however there were too many wicks north seen marked with arrows, indicating sellers are drying up, thus, the need to wait for more confirmation.
  • P.A confirmation sell orders (Red line) are seen just under supply (0.80869-0.80771) at 0.80752. Confirmation orders were used here because price is trading around a weekly demand area (0.79596-0.80299), which means price could easily consume this supply level as the higher timeframes usually overrule the lower timeframes.
  • The P.A confirmation sell order (Red line) set just below supply (0.80647-0.80583) at 0.80293 is now active. Considering the higher-timeframe location seen on the weekly chart (Weekly demand: 0.79596-0.80299) , the sellers will need to consume the majority of the buyers around the 4hr demand area below at 0.79405-0.79552 to confirm this zone; a pending sell order can then be set awaiting a possible retracement.

Quick Recap:

The weekly timeframe currently shows sellers taking control once again within weekly demand at 0.79596-0.80299, while on the daily timeframe price is seen trading deeper within daily demand at 079282-0.79649. Sellers on the 4hr timeframe have hammered price down into 4hr demand at 0.79405-0.79552 which in turn has filled our pending buy order at 0.79580. Price will likely see a rally from here to at least our first take-profit area at 0.79286, before a break of the aforementioned 4hr demand area is seen.

  • Areas to watch for buy orders: P.O: 0.79580 (Active) (SL: 0.79368 TP:  [1] 0.79286 [2] 0.80000 [3] 0.80583 [May change if any new developments in the market are seen]) P.A.C: No P.A confirmation buy orders are seen in the current market environment).

USD/CAD:

Daily TF.

Price is currently seen trading deeper within daily demand at 1.05883-1.06779, with the buyers yet to show much interest.

usdcaddaily

4hr TF.

Chart one clearly shows price was not testing our decision point (demand) level at 1.06484 for a second time, as price broke this level with a near full-bodied bearish candle,  making our decision point level a supply to watch in the near future.

Chart 1:

usdcadh4 chart 1

Chart two below shows the alterations that needed to be made. It seemed the buyers found liquidity around 4hr demand at 1.06101-1.06335 as price is, at the time of writing beginning to rally nicely into the S/R flip level 1.06484. All is not lost here, if the buyers prove this 4hr demand area by consuming the sellers around the high 1.06776 marked with an x, we will then be permitted to set a pending buy order, awaiting a possible retracement.

Pending/P.A confirmation orders:

  • The pending buy order (Green line) set just above the decision point level (1.06484) at 1.06526has been stopped out.
  • New P.A confirmation buy orders (Red line) are seen just above demand (1.06101-1.06335) at 1.06376. The rationale behind us now placing a P.A confirmation order here is because buying interest was seen here, and also taking into consideration we are in higher-timeframe demand currently (Weekly: 1.05609-1.07372 Daily: 1.05883-1.06779). The buyers will need to confirm this area by consuming the sellers around the high 1.06776 we will then be permitted to set a pending buy order, awaiting a possible retracement.
  • Pending sell orders (Green line) are seen within the decision point supply area (1.08251-1.08164) at 1.08226. Pending orders are valid here due this likely being the work of pro money, the momentum out of the zone is only caused by traders with big accounts, and when pro money move the market, all of their orders here were unlikely to have been filled, hence a pending order being a logical choice here.
  • Pending sell orders (Green line) are seen around the decision point level (1.07481) at 1.07461. A pending sell order is valid here due to this being the last ‘obvious’ decision made by pro money that consumed buyers around the S/R flip level at 1.07266, unfilled sell orders may have been left here in the process. However, we still have to remain aware, as we’re currently seeing price trading in higher-timeframe demand (Weekly: 1.05609-1.07372 Daily: 1.05883-1.06779), so we would need to exit this position at the first sign of trouble if the sell order does indeed get filled.
  • No P.A confirmation sell orders (Red line) are seen in the current market environment.

Chart 2:

usdcadh4 chart 2

Quick Recap:

Price is currently seen trading within both weekly and daily demand areas (1.05609-1.07372/1.05883-1.06779). The 4hr timeframe is showing the buyers reacting off of 4hr demand at 1.06101-1.06335 where we have now set a P.A confirmation buy order at 1.06367. Considering we are in higher-timeframe demand (levels above), higher prices are naturally expected from here to at least the high marked with an x at 1.06776.

  • Areas to watch for buy orders: P.O: There are no pending buy orders seen within the current market environment. P.A.C: 1.06376 (SL: likely to be set at 1.06067 TP: Dependent on approaching price action after the level has been confirmed).

USD/CHF:

4hr TF

The buyers have been active recently rallying price up from around the daily S/R flip level area at 0.88501 to the D/S flip area (supply) at 0.88973-0.89168 as reported may happen in the last analysis.

If price breaks above the supply area just mentioned, price will be theoretically be free to rally back up to 4hr supply at 0.90381-0.90033. Why is price likely free to do this? Notice the arrows marked the charts, these resemble wicks that have consumed supply i.e. sellers. So with most of the sellers already likely consumed in this area, buyers will be free to push price up until it hits probable supply (sellers) which will likely be around the 4hr supply at 0.90381-0.90033. Conversely, a break below the daily S/R flip level will likely see price test the round number below at 0.88000, as very similar to above, there is very little demand (buyers) stopping price from reaching this area. These areas seem far away at the moment, but with some hard-hitting news announcements due out today, price could very well reach either area. However for the moment, price remains capped between 4hr supply (D/S flip area) at 0.88973-0.89168 and the daily S/R flip level at 0.88501.

Pending/P.A confirmation orders:

  • No pending buy orders (Green line) are seen in the current market environment.
  • P.A confirmation buy orders (Red line) are seen just above the daily S/R flip level (0.88501) at 0.88533. This level needs to see some confirming price action before any entry is placed in the market, due to their being no logical area for a stop loss order.
  • New P.A confirmation buy orders (Red line) seen just above the round number 0.88000 at 0.88039. The reason a P.A confirmation buy order is used here is simply because there is no obvious area for a stop-loss order on this timeframe, and pro money may well test this area by spiking it, which could possibly stop lots of traders out in the process, hence the need to wait for confirmation.
  • The pending sell order (Green line) visible at the base of supply (0.90381-0.90033) just above the round number 0.90000 at 0.90063 has now been closed at 0.88719.
  • New P.A confirmation sell orders (Red line) are seen just below the round number 0.90000 and 4hr supply (0.90381-0.90033) at 0.89976. The reason a pending sell order was not used here is simply because the aforementioned 4hr supply area has seen a lot of touches, indicating supply may have weakened, so a need to wait for confirmation here is essential.

Quick Recap:

The 4hr timeframe currently shows the buyers have currently taken control, missing our P.A confirmation buy order set at 0.88533 by a few pips, as price was pushed into 4hr supply (D/S flip area) at 0.88973-0.89168. Price from here can do one of three things, as it is very difficult to analyze possible direction on this pair.

  1. We can see a break of the aforementioned 4hr supply area, and likely see price hitting 4hr supply above at 0.90381-0.90033 once again, where we currently have a P.A confirmation sell order set at 0.89976.
  2. A break below of the daily S/R flip level may be seen at 0.88501 cancelling out our P.A confirmation buy order at 0.88533 in the process. The break below will likely see price dropping towards the round number at 0.88000 where we also have a P.A confirmation buy order set at 0.88039.
  3. Our last likely scenario may see price dropping back down to the daily S/R flip level at 0.88501 thus triggering our P.A confirmation buy order at 0.88533, where price may rally straight to 4hr supply above at 0.90381-0.90033, consuming the D/S flip area (0.88973-0.89168) in the process.
  • Areas to watch for buy orders: P.O: There are no pending buy orders seen in the current market environment. P.A.C: 0.88533 (SL: Dependent on price action after the level has been confirmed TP: Dependent on approaching price action after the level has been confirmed) 0.88039 (SL: Dependent on price action after the level has been confirmed TP: Dependent on approaching price action after the level has been confirmed).
  • Areas to watch for sell orders: P.O: (CLOSED) 0.90063 P.A.C: 0.89976 (SL: likely to be set at 0.90415 TP: Dependent on approaching price action after the level has been confirmed).

XAU/USD (GOLD)

Daily TF.

Technically, very little has changed on this pair, price still remains trading around daily supply at 1331.13-1318.24. Was this spike/wick above the daily supply area just mentioned a fakeout or continuation move? At present it is very difficult to tell.

4hr TF.

Like the daily chart above, price has seen very little change on the 4hr timeframe also. Much of the last analysis is still valid:

The 4hr decision point (supply) area at 1331.13-1327.42 has been consumed with a relatively large wick/spike above. Price will now very likely hit the 4hr supply area at 1342.46-1337.02 before price breaks the 4hr S/D flip area at 1314.49-1309.37 below, as pro money will likely want to collect as many of the stops (buy orders) as they can around this area to sell into. If this indeed is a fakeout above daily supply (1331.13-1318.24) as it appears it may be (at the time of writing), price may advance a little to 4hr supply at 1342.46-1337.02.as it works its way through the rest of the sellers’ stops.

Pending/P.A confirmation orders:

  • Pending buy orders (Green line) are seen within demand (S/D flip area… 1284.88-1280.74) at 1282.82. We have set a pending buy order here due to the fact there was a decision made here (marked by the black horizontal level, when decisions are made by pro money, they may be unfilled buy orders left there, hence the fact we have set our pending order there.
  • Pending buy orders (Green line) are seen just above demand (1258.57-1265.27) at 1268.91. We are permitted to set a pending buy order here as the buyers have consumed sellers within (which was at the time of writing) supply at 1293.47-1285.52, as per the previous confirmation buy order originally set at 1266.00 (See Thursday 19th June for details).
  • No P.A confirmation buy orders (Red line) are seen in the current market environment.
  • Pending sell orders (Green line) are seen just below supply (1342.46-1337.02) at 1336.59. A pending sell order is set here because pro money love to get the cheapest prices, if price has indeed faked above daily supply at 1331.13-1318.24, pro money will want all of the stops (buy orders) around this area to sell into, hence a push up to the 4hr supply area mentioned above may well happen.
  • No P.A confirmation sell orders (Red line) are seen in the current market environment.
