Forex Technical & Market Analysis FXCC Oct 17 2013

Debt ceiling temporary solution provides temporary market relief

The debt ceiling resolution saw the DJIA rise by 1.36% on Wednesday. The compromise will fund the government through to mid-January and raise the debt ceiling through Feb. 7th. It also will set up a budget conference on long-term fiscal issues that would end no later than Dec. 13th. The Treasury Department will still be able to use "extraordinary measures" to work around the debt ceiling in the case that it is not raised by Feb. 7th. The first estimate for the euro area1 (EA17) trade in goods balance with the rest of the world in August 2013 gave a 7.1 billion euro surplus, compared with +4.6 bn in August 2012. The July 20132 balance was +18.0 bn, compared with +13.8 bn in July 2012. In August 2013 compared with July 2013, seasonally adjusted exports rose by 1.0% and imports by 0.2%. Euro area annual inflation was 1.1% in September 2013, down from 1.3% in August. A year earlier the rate was 2.6%. Monthly inflation was 0.5% in September 2013. European Union annual inflation was 1.3% in September 2013, down from 1.5% in August. A year earlier the rate was 2.7%. Monthly inflation was 0.4% in September 2013. The DJIA index closed up 1.36% on Wednesday, the SPX up 1.38% and NASDAQ up 1.20%. The debt ceiling compromise came too late to impact on European markets, STOXX index closed up 0.36%, FTSE up 0.34%, CAC closed down 0.29% and the DAX up 0.47%. The MIB closed up the most by 1.45% on the day.

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

Upwards scenario: Short- term tendency is bearish even though both moving averages are pointing up. Though risk of market strengthening is seen above the resistance level at 1.3555 (R1). Clearance here would open way towards to next targets at 1.3571 (R2) and 1.3588 (R3). Downwards scenario: On the downside our attention is shifted to the immediate support level at 1.3517 (S1). Break here is required to enable bearish forces and expose our intraday targets at 1.3498 (S2) and 1.3479 (S3).

Resistance Levels: 1.3555, 1.3571, 1.3588
Support Levels: 1.3517, 1.3498, 1.3479

GBPUSD :
HIGH 1.59861 LOW 1.59397 BID 1.59775 ASK 1.59785 CHANGE 0.19% TIME 08 : 21:47



OUTLOOK SUMMARY : Down
TREND CONDITION : Sideway
TRADERS SENTIMENT : Bearish
IMPLIED VOLATILITY : High

Upwards scenario: GBP/USD determined clear sideways tone on the medium-term timeframe. Possibility of market appreciation is seen above the resistance level at 1.5999 (R1). Break here is required to validate next targets at 1.6019 (R2) and 1.6042 (R3). Downwards scenario: On the other hand, price pattern suggests bearish potential if the instrument manages to overcome next support level at 1.5938 (S1). Possible price regress could expose our initial targets at 1.5914 (S2) and 1.5892 (S3) in potential.

Resistance Levels: 1.5999, 1.6019, 1.6042
Support Levels: 1.5938, 1.5914, 1.5892

USDJPY :
HIGH 99.006 LOW 98.397 BID 98.444 ASK 98.447 CHANGE -0.31% TIME 08 : 21:47



OUTLOOK SUMMARY : Down
TREND CONDITION : Up trend
TRADERS SENTIMENT : Bearish
IMPLIED VOLATILITY : High

Upwards scenario: Instrument consolidates from its initial uptrend formation on the hourly chart. Resistance level at 98.82 (R1) is a key technical point on the upside. Penetration above it would suggest higher targets at 99.01 (R2) and 99.20 (R3) later on today. Downwards scenario: Prolonged movement below the initial support level at 92.28 (S1) might trigger protective orders and drive the price towards to our intraday targets at 98.10 (S2) and 97.89 (S3) later on today.

Resistance Levels: 98.82, 99.01, 99.20
Support Levels: 98.28, 98.10, 97.89
