USDCHF Dips but Bullish Trend Holds



Solid ECN – The USDCHF currency pair experienced a slight decline, reaching approximately 0.910. This movement brings it close to the lower boundary of the bullish flag—a pattern suggesting a potential rise in value. This specific price point is bolstered by additional support at 0.908 and further underpinned by the Ichimoku cloud.

Despite the dip, no significant candlestick patterns used to forecast price direction changes were observed on the USDCHF 4-hour chart. This absence typically indicates that the current upward trend may continue, provided the price remains above the Ichimoku cloud. Should this scenario hold, the U.S. Dollar will likely climb toward the 0.915 mark, aiming next for the upper boundary of the bullish flag.

However, there is a flip side to consider. If the price falls below 0.9062, it would signal an end to the bullish trend, transitioning into a bear market. Such a drop could increase selling pressure, potentially pushing the price to around 0.899.

Bearish Outlook: AUDUSD Tests Critical Supports


Solid ECN – The Australian dollar started today's trading session with an uptick in momentum against the U.S. Dollar and is trading at about 0.641. The AUDUSD 4-hour chart above shows that the pair is rising to test the previously broken supports at the 0.6443 and 0.6473 marks.

Considering the primary trend, which is bearish, the above-mentioned price points offer a decent opportunity to join the bear market. Therefore, we suggest monitoring these levels closely and looking for bearish candlestick patterns on a smaller time frame, such as the 4-hour chart.

Bitcoin Price Fails at Key Resistance Levels


Solid ECN – Bitcoin price failed to surpass the EMA 50 and the 50% Fibonacci resistance level in the previous trading session. Consequently, the digital gold dipped below the 23.6% Fibonacci support level and traded at about $62,800 when writing.

The technical indicators give mixed signals. The RSI hovers below 50, and the awesome oscillator bars are green and approaching the signal line. This can be interpreted as uncertainty in the market.

As shown in the BTCUSD 4-hour chart above, the pair trades with a wide bearish flag in red, which widens the trading range and increases the risk. This is the downside of trading cryptocurrencies.

Therefore, we suggest waiting for the Bitcoin price to reach critical support levels before entering the market. Since the trend is bearish in the short term, the market dip might extend to the lower band of the flag or to April's low, the $60,500 area.

USDCHF Analysis: Bollinger Bands & Bull Markets


Solid ECN – The USDCHF trades sideways in a narrow range between 0.915 and 0.908. The 4-hour chart above shows that the Bollinger bands are also squeezed. The squeezed Bollinger bands can be interpreted as the market resting and waiting for economic updates from the central banks. It is worth noting that the Awesome Oscillator divergence signaled this correction or consolidation phase.

From a technical perspective, the USDCHF is in a bull market, trading inside a rising flag. The uptrend will likely continue if the price steps above the 0.915 resistance.

Conversely, the Ichimoku cloud, or the lower band of the flag, stands between the bull and bear markets. Should the price dip and stabilize itself below 0.906, the bull market would be invalidated, and the decline would aim for the 0.8991 mark.

ETHUSD: Bearish Trends Below Ichimoku Cloud


Solid ECN – The ETHUSD price stabilizes below the Ichimoku cloud after pulling back from the 38.2% Fibonacci support level at $2,801. The technical indicators are bearish, with the Relative Strength Index hovering below 50 and the Awesome Oscillator below the signal line, its bars in red.

The ETHUSD chart above shows that the pair trades within a bearish flag. Therefore, from a technical standpoint, the trend remains bearish, and the decline will likely extend to the lower band of the flag, followed by the $2,717 support level.

Conversely, the bull market would be invalidated if the price crosses and stabilizes above the flag.

Bullish Gold: Navigating the Upswing with Fibonacci and Technical Indicators



Solid ECN – The gold price returned upward after it touched the 38.2% Fibonacci level, which coincides with the EMA 50 and the Ichimoku cloud at the $2,324 mark. Interestingly, the XAU/USD 4-hour chart formed a bullish long-wick candlestick pattern, which signals the continuation of the bull market.

As of this writing, the yellow metal is trading at about $2,370, slightly above the 23.6% Fibonacci support. The technical indicators are also bullish. The RSI indicator hovers above the 50 level and the Awesome Oscillator bars are green and above the signal line.

From a technical perspective, as long as the price remains above the EMA 50 and inside the flag, the market trend remains bullish. The next target will likely be April’s high at the $2,432 mark.

Conversely, the bull market is invalidated if the XAU/USD price dips below the 38.2% Fibonacci support.

GBPJPY Eyes Resistance at 192.9: Bullish Outlook


Solid ECN – The GBPJPY price bounced significantly from the 23.6% Fibonacci support and is testing the April high, which is in conjunction with the upper band of the flag, at the 192.9 mark.

As of this writing, the GBPJPY price trades at about 192.2 and is trying to stabilize itself above the Ichimoku cloud. Interestingly, the technical indicators are bullish, with the RSI hovering above 50 and the Awesome Oscillator bars turning green and closing in on the signal line from below.

From a technical standpoint, the GBPJPY is in a bull market if it remains within the bullish flag, marked in red. The price of this trading instrument will likely resume its rise. However, it is noteworthy that for the bullish scenario to play out, the buyers must close above the flag, specifically at the 192.9 resistance.

On the other hand, the 23.6% Fibonacci support stands between the bullish and bearish markets. The bull market is invalidated only if the GBPJPY price dips below this level.

Analyzing USDCAD's Recent Overbought Status


Solid ECN – As of this writing, the USDCAD currency pair is trading at about 1.3737, slightly below the 78.6% Fibonacci level. The rise that began on April 4 from 1.3477 has led to the pair becoming overbought. Notably, the RSI indicator highlighted yesterday's saturated market when it hovered above 70.

Subsequently, the USDCAD formed a doji candlestick pattern with a long wick on the 4-hour chart, and interestingly, the Awesome Oscillator is showing signs of a bearish wave.

Therefore, from a technical perspective, the USDCAD price might dip. However, for this to occur, the bears must close and stabilize the price below the 1.3725 minor support. If this scenario unfolds, the correction phase could extend to the 1.3682 broken resistance, which offers a decent entry point to join the bull market.

It is worth noting that the market remains bullish as long as the USDCAD price trades above the EMA 50.

Understanding Bitcoin’s Recent Price Recovery


Solid ECN — Bitcoin's price has rebounded from the $60,600 resistance, coinciding with the lows of April 5 and 20. This recovery was anticipated as the RSI indicator was previously in oversold territory. As of this writing, the indicator is showing bullish signs, having flipped above the 50 level.

Consequently, the BTCUSD pair remains bullish, although it is currently trading below the Ichimoku cloud. The next bullish target is likely the upper band of the flag around $72,000.

However, the bulls face the EMA 50 as a barrier, suggesting that there might be a consolidation phase or a minor pullback to the 38.2% Fibonacci support level before the uptrend resumes. This is particularly likely, considering the standard deviation indicator is losing momentum.

The $60,600 mark is critical to keeping the market bullish. Should the Bitcoin price dip below this level, the bullish scenario would need to be reevaluated.

EURUSD Trading Tips Amid Market Volatility


Solid ECN – The EURUSD currency pair dipped to as low as 1.062 during Friday's trading session and traded at about 1.066, with an increase in today's trading session.

The RSI indicator signals that the market is oversold, while the Standard Deviation indicator hovers at a peak of around 0.0079 and is declining. This can be interpreted as the market being oversold and market volatility slowing down.

From a technical perspective, joining the bears in an oversold market condition is not recommended. Therefore, waiting patiently for the EURUSD to correct some of its losses is logical and wise. However, we don't see signals from the Awesome Oscillator indicating the start of a consolidation phase. Regardless of the AO, if the price reaches the 23.6% Fibonacci level, this resistance area can provide a decent entry point for retail traders to join the bear market.

Please be aware that the Ichimoku cloud stands between bear and bull markets. The market remains bearish as long as the price hovers below the cloud.
