UK inflation report:  Tuesday, 9:30. Britain stands out among developed countries by suffering from elevated inflation. Year over year CPI surpassed the 3% threshold in the reading for November, above the 1-3% range. Rising inflation has already triggered a rate hike in November, but the BOE seems reluctant to make additional tightening given the uncertainty resulting from Brexit and the slowing economy. Another rise in this important report that concludes 2017 may force the BOE to rethink. A small drop to 3% is expected.

Empire State Manufacturing Index: Tuesday, 13:30. This is an early report about the manufacturing sector, for the month of January 2018. In many cases, the publication is overshadowed by other indicators, but this time, it has its own space. The score slipped to 18 points in December after reaching much higher levels beforehand. A level of 18.5 is predicted.

  • EURUSD

 

The pair managed to break a strong resistance level that can be found at 1.21 so we believe that as long as the pair is traded above it, it is highly recommended to go long targeting the level of 1.24 followed by 1.25 during the week. This is conditioned by the continuation of trading above the level of 1.21.

 

Resistance levels: Support levels: Recommended:
▪ 1.25
▪ 1.24
▪ 1.23		 ▪ 1.21
▪ 1.1600
▪ 1.1550

We are bullish as long as the pair is traded above the level of 1.21.
  • GBPUSD

 

As could on the daily chart that the pair is traded above a strong support level that could be found at 1.3650 so we believe that as long as the pair is traded above it, it is highly recommended to go long targeting the level of 1.40 during the week. This is conditioned by the continuation of trading above the level of 1.3650.

 

Resistance levels: Support levels: Recommended:
▪ 1.40
▪ 1.39
▪ 1.3800		 ▪ 1.3650

We remain bullish as long as the pair is traded above the level of 1.3650.
  • GOLD

 

Update: The pair successfully reached the level of 1300 (our first target). As could be seen on the daily chart that the pair is traded below a strong resistance level that is 1325 so we believe that in case this level is broken, we can go long targeting the level of 1330 followed by 1335 during the week

 

Resistance levels: Support levels: Recommended:
▪ 1340
▪ 1330
▪ 1320

▪ 1210

We are bullish in case the level of 1325 is broken.
  • AUDUSD

 

Update: The pair started to break through the level of 0.7890, but is not confirmed yet. There is a potential that the pair is forming a head and shoulders pattern. The 2nd shoulder is being formed as we can see so this may help the USD to gain value against the AUD then a pullback is expected from there so the pair can reach the neckline of the pattern.

 

Resistance levels: Support levels: Recommended:

▪ 0.8100
▪ 0.8060
▪ 0.7810

 ▪ 0.7740
▪ 0.7500

Waiting for the pair to reach the level of 0.7737.
  • GBPJPY

 

Update: Started going down as expected. As could be seen on the chart above that the pair is traded below a strong resistance level that is 153.37 so we believe that as long as the pair is traded below it, it is highly recommended to go short targeting the 50 ema.

 

Resistance levels: Support levels: Recommended:
▪ 152.90
▪ 152

▪ 148
▪ 147

Waiting for the pair to reach the 50 ema.
