EURJPY. Watching 108.40 level

Posted: 30 Dec 2010 09:56 AM PST

The 108.40 level is the 100 hour MA and a nice floor from last week earlier this week. The price in the EURJPY is in between the Goal Posts as defined by the 100 and 200 hour MAs. Earlier the price tested the 200 hour MA, but could not muster the courage to push through. Instead traders used the level to take profit.

Look for buyers with stops below 108.26-30 area. A move below this area, keeps bears fully in charge.

Fast break the other way in GBPUSD

Posted: 30 Dec 2010 07:45 AM PST

It surges higher. It plunges lower.

The GBPUSD has now made new lows after failing to stay above the 100 and 200 hour MA and running into resistance against the 1.5465 level.(see earlier post).  The price has also moved back below the 200 day MA at 1.5401. 

The GBPUSD has traded above and below the key 200 day MA for 6 of the last 7 trading days.  This is indicative of a market that is coiling for a trend type move.  Looking a the daily chart below the 1.5507 level is key on the topside and has held the corrective moves.  The moves below the 200 day MA has been disappointing for the bears.  The longer the market hems and haws, the better the chance for a break.  Be aware.

Gold could not get through $1404.

Watching $1408 resistance now.  The market should take clues from these boundaries. A move above $1408 reverses intraday bias to bullish. A move below $1404 increases the bearish bias intraday.
