EURUSD

The EURUSD pair begins today with clear positivity to attack 1.0745 level and attempts to breach it, which hints heading to achieve new gains in the upcoming sessions, while it faces negative pressure by stochastic that might hinder the mission to rise.

Therefore, we prefer to stay aside until the price confirms its situation according to the mentioned level followed by detecting its next destination clearly, noting that the contradiction between the technical factors provides another reason for neutrality. Note that confirming breaching 1.0745 will push the price to achieve positive targets that start at 1.0800 and extend to 1.0925, while consolidating below it will press on the price to resume the bearish wave that targets 1.0620 followed by 1.0515 as next main stations.

Oil

On Tuesday, the market could see a drop in risk aversion

  • The recent panic in the stock market, which was linked to the problems of the banking sector in the USA, has been halted
  • The main stock indices from the Old Continent ended the session sharply higher
  • The DAX gained 1.83%, while the French CAC40 added 1.86% and London's FTSE closed 1.17% higher. Poland's WIG20 ended the session slightly above the benchmark +0.11%
  • DE30 quotations reached key short-term resistance at 15280 points
  • Today's CPI inflation data from the US was in line with expectations and showed that prices rose by 0.4% in February after accelerating by 0.5% in January. In contrast, annualised CPI was 6.0% in February, the smallest annual price increase since September 2021. (previously 6.4%). The underlying CPI was also in line with expectations.
  • Wall Street's major stock indices traded higher. The Nasdaq is up 1.5% at the time of preparing this commentary with the S&P500 and Dow Jones adding 1.05% and 0.45% respectively.
  • Apple halts bonus payments, Meta Platforms announces job cuts
  • Tuesday saw massive declines in crude oil. OPEC raised its forecast for crude demand growth in CHINA, but left the forecast unchanged when it came to global demand, explaining this by concerns about global economic growth. OIL.WTI quotes are losing more than 5%, with OIL down 4.5% and falling below the $77 per barrel level.
  • In the forex market today, we are seeing an outflow into commodity currencies, including the Canadian dollar, the New Zealand dollar and the Australian dollar. The Japanese yen is performing poorly. The EURUSD pair maintains bullish momentum and struggles to break out above the resistance level near 1.0750 on a sustained basis.
  • Tuesday brought a continuation of the increases in the cryptocurrency market. Bitcoin's quotations broke out with momentum above the USD 25,000 level, which is an important resistance in the medium term. Etherum's price, on the other hand, jumped above $1,750.
  • At 08:40 pm GMT, we will learn API data on oil stocks, and at 09:20 pm GMT, Bowman from the Fed will speak

OIL.WTI quotes have overcome an internal trendline, which could herald an attack on the December minimum at $70 per barrel.

GBPUSD

The GBPUSD pair continues to fluctuate within sideways and tight track since yesterday, noticing that stochastic gets rid of its negative momentum to approach the oversold areas, waiting to motive the price to resume the bullish trend that its next targets located at 1.2260 followed by 1.2440.

2023 Market Forecast by Solid ECN in Technical_gbpusd_10

The EMA50 continues to support the suggested bullish wave, which will remain valid unless breaking 1.2070 and holding below it.

USDJPY

The USDJPY pair settles around 134.00 level since yesterday, affected by stochastic negativity that slows the intraday bullish wave, waiting to resume the rise and achieve our positive targets that start at 135.40 and extend to 137.70 after surpassing the previous level.

2023 Market Forecast by Solid ECN in Technical_usdjpy_13

Therefore, we will keep our bullish overview conditioned by the price stability above 133.30, as breaking it will put the price under the negative pressure again, to head towards visiting 131.75 areas initially.

EURUSD

A relief on the markets triggered by actions of US authorities over the weekend, aimed at containing risk from SVB collapse, turned out to be short-lived. US and European stock markets rallied yesterday but those moves are being reversed today. German DAX futures (DE30) are trading over 1% lower at press time while S&P 500 futures (US500) drop 0.6%. DE30 bears attempt to break below 15,000 pts mark at press time. A move lower on equity markets is accompanied by strengthening of USD which pressures EURUSD and GOLD.

While there is no clear reason behind the drop, it looks like markets remain nervous due to the situation in the banking sector. However, attention may be turning to the European banking sector. Shares of Credit Suisse are trading 10% lower today and hit a fresh record low. Credit Suisse top shareholder ruled out any further financial assistance to the European bank, which has been plagued by issues over recent years.

2023 Market Forecast by Solid ECN in Technical_eurusd-n-1_1

EURUSD plunged and tested a key near-term support zone in the 1.0675 area, marked with previous local low, 100-period moving average (H1 interval) as well as the lower limit of market geometry. A break below would, at least in theory, hint a bearish trend reversal.

2023 Market Forecast by Solid ECN in Technical_eurusd-n-2_1

DE30 has once again failed to break above the 15,244-15,285 pts resistance zone and launched a pull back. The index is attempting to make a break below psychological 15,000 pts at press time.

EURUSD

EURUSD pair?s strong decline stopped at 1.0515 yesterday, which formed solid support against the price, to rebound bullishly and start building bullish wave on the intraday basis, motivated by stochastic positivity.

2023 Market Forecast by Solid ECN in Technical_eurusd_17

Therefore, we expect to witness more bullish bias in the upcoming sessions, and the targets begin at 1.0640 and extend to 1.0745 after surpassing the previous level. On the other hand, we should note that breaking 1.0515 will stop the expected rise and press on the price to suffer additional losses that reach 1.0440.

GBPUSD

GBPUSD pair attempted to break the minor support 1.2060 but it consolidates above it, to keep the chances valid to resume the bullish trend on the intraday basis, waiting to visit 1.2260 as a next main target.

2023 Market Forecast by Solid ECN in Technical_gbpusd_11

Stochastic provides clear positive signals now to support the expectations to rise in the upcoming sessions, and breaching 1.2145 will ease the mission of achieving the waited positive targets. We remind you that breaking 1.2060 will push the price to decline to test the most important support at 1.1940 before any new positive attempt.

USDJPY

The USDJPY pair faced clear negative pressure to break 133.30 and settles below it by today?s open, to head towards expected turn to decline, on its way to achieve negative targets that start at 131.60 and extend to 130.50.

2023 Market Forecast by Solid ECN in Technical_usdjpy_14

The EMA50 forms negative pressure against the price to support the continuation of the expected bearish trend, while stochastic positivity might cause some sideways fluctuation before resuming the decline. Note that breaching 133.30 and holding above it will reactivate the positive scenario and push the price towards 135.40 initially.

Bitcoin

Cryptocurrencies are enjoying another day of strong gains with BITCOIN rallying over-7% and looking towards the $27,000 mark. The most popular coin took out a local high from Tuesday today and reached a fresh 9-month high. While cryptocurrencies performed poorly between mid-February and early-March, the digital asset market took a U-turn this week. Actions of US authorities aimed at stemming contagion risk from collapse of tech- and crypto-related banks, triggered a rally on cryptocurrencies market. Bitcoin is currently trading over 35% above a local low reached as recently as a week ago on March 10, 2023. Solid gains have been all across the cryptocurrency market this week.

2023 Market Forecast by Solid ECN in Technical_btc_11

A number of cryptocurrencies rallied over-20% over the past week! Taking a look at the BITCOIN chart at D1 interval, we can see that the coin has not only fully recovered from the February 21 - March 10 sell-off but has even jumped noticeably above mid-Friday's peak in the $25,000 area. Coin is closing in on a $27,000 mark. Near-term potential resistance levels to watch are marked with lower and upper limits of a short-term trading range from May and June 2022 at $29,000 and $31,500, respectively.

EURUSD

The EURUSD pair shows calm positive trades to gradually towards our waited target at 1.0745, getting good support by the EMA50, to keep the bullish trend suggested for the upcoming period.

2023 Market Forecast by Solid ECN in Technical_eurusd_19

It is important to monitor the price when reaching the targeted level, as breaching it will extend the bullish wave to reach 1.0920 areas as a next main station, while consolidating against the bullish wave will press on the price to rebound bearishly to test the minor support areas around 1.0635 initially. On the other hand, we should note that breaking 1.0635 will stop the expected rise for today and push the price to turn to decline to visit 1.0515 level as a first station.
