EURO ended the session on Tuesday with losses of 0.12%, versus the greenback, inching lower in a volatile session. The pair is holding above crucial near term supports at 1.3550; bottom end of the medium term bullish channel, where the downside is likely to be capped before we could see EURO rally to 1.3800- 1.3900. However, close below 1.3550, the pair could slide to 1.3350, negating the near term bullish view. The medium to long term view remains bullish for targets of 1.4200; targets for the symmetrical triangle in an uptrend

Sterling ended the session on Tuesday flat, with a negative bias, versus the greenback, closing flat for the second successive session. Near term view bullish, but there is a likelihood of the pair testing supports at 1.6250- 1.6300; bottom end of the medium term bullish channel, where the downside could be capped. On the upside, close above 1.6500, Sterling is likely to rally to 1.6700- 1.6800, with the medium to long term targets placed at 1.7100- 1.7200

Spot gold ended the session on Tuesday with losses of 0.49%, capping five successive winning sessions, the longest since August 2013. Near term, the gains are likely to extend anywhere between 1260.00- 1300.00 per troy ounce with crucial near term supports placed at 1215.00- 1225.00. ONLY a close below the supports will negate the near term bullish view. The medium to long term view remains extremely bearish with spot gold likely to target 1000.00- 1050.00 per troy ounce; targets for the symmetrical triangle in a downtrend

TREND DIRECTION

  • Short term: Bullish
  • Medium term: Bearish
  • Long term: Bearish

TRADING RECOMMENDATIONS

  • Short:

    • At 1210.00 with a stop at 1218.00 for a target of 1190.00
