Technical Update For EUR/USD, GBP/USD, USD/JPY & NZD/USD: 24.04.2018
Even after printing the lowest levels in more than seven-weeks, the EURUSD is struggling with 100-day SMA, at 1.2210 now, in order to revisit the 1.2165-55 horizontal-support. Should the pair fails to register a daily closing below 1.2210, it can bounce-back to the 1.2240 and then to the 1.2275-80 resistances. In case if the recovery stretches beyond 1.2280, the 1.2300 and the 50-day SMA level of 1.2330 could challenge the buyers ahead of fueling the pair towards 1.2400 mark. Given the pair’s D1 close below 1.2210, followed by the 1.2155 clearance, it can slump to the 1.2090 and the 1. ...

The British pound initially tries to rally during the week, yet fails
The British pound initially tried to rally against the US dollar during the week but found enough resistance above the 1.43 level to roll over and fall rather significantly. The 1.40 level of course will offer a bit of support, and I think that if we can break down below that level it’s likely that we will probably go looking towards the uptrend line underneath, and of course the sideways support at the 1.3650 level should also offer support.
