EURUSD (1.09): EURUSD closed Friday’s session with a strong hammer pattern with price rejection to the downside after testing the daily low of 1.0802. Price action is back near 1.0939 region and a potential lower close or a doji is expected in today’s session as prices remain near the strong resistance of 1.095 – 1.0932 region. To the downside, EURUSD could be potentially closing back near the previous support at 1.0815 – 1.0796 and the current price action looks to have invalidated the head and shoulders pattern in EURUSD identified few weeks ago. Therefore, if the support at 1.0815 – 1.0796 holds the declines, then EURUSD could be looking to a stronger rally in the near term.

USDJPY (117.2): USDJPY opened today’s session with a down gap and tested the lows of 116.7 before pulling back higher. The bias remains to the downside with prices breaking 118.4 – 118 level of support. A move to the upside could potentially turn this support into resistance leaving room for USDJPY to decline further to 116.22 where the next support comes in. On the 4-hour chart, prices are in an extreme bear trend although the Stochastics continues to plot a divergence with an eye for 120.815 region of resistance. Only a close above 118 will confirm this view for a move to 120.815.
