Gold trading idea for the week of 2-October-2017

Last week, Gold fell significantly after reaching around 1315 level and now sits well below 1300 level. This could be due to Feds who decided to be hawkish recently, rising the possibilities of one more rate hike this year.

AUDUSD Technical Analysis – Pin Bar

AUDUSD Technical Analysis – Pin Bar

Technical Analysis A pin-bar has formed on the daily chart around the support zone of 0.7804. Pin bars are often accurate when they form around support and resistance zones. Therefore, the pair is very much likely to make a move towards the resistance zone as shown in the chart. The target area is around 0.8053. We prefer long positions especially if the pair can move above the high of the daily bullish pin bar. Unless exhaustive candles form around the resistance zone, the long positions can be held for long-term.

EURUSD has fallen for the 3rd consecutive day and has formed a 3 black crows candlestick pattern on daily chart. One of the fundamental factors that support this move was the comments by Fed Chair Yellen. The dollar  maintained the strong footing set at the beginning of the week, after US Fed Chair Yellen said on Tuesday that, while a gradual approach to hikes is appropriate in the light of subdued inflation, she also added that the Central Bank should be wary of moving too gradually. This makes us believe that…
