The Euro continues to test support at $1.3350 against the greenback after a false break above the February high of $1.37. Breach of support would warn of a bull trap, and follow-through below $1.31 and the rising trendline would signal a reversal. 13-Week Twiggs Momentum, however, continues to indicate a primary up-trend; a trough above zero would strengthen the signal. Recovery above $1.37 is less likely, but would signal a fresh advance.
* Target calculation: 1.38 + ( 1.38 – 1.34 ) = 1.42
Sterling is testing resistance at €1.20. Recovery of 13-week Twiggs Momentum above zero suggests an up-trend. Breakout above €1.20 would signal an advance to €1.23*. Respect of resistance is unlikely, but would suggest another test of €1.1650.
* Target calculation: 1.20 + ( 1.20 – 1.17 ) = 1.23
The Greenback is headed for another test of resistance at ¥101. The bullish ascending triangle suggests an upward breakout with a target of ¥108. Breakout above ¥101 would confirm. 13-Week Twiggs Momentum descended steeply over the length of the consolidation, but completion of a trough above zero (recovery above say 5%) would indicate a primary up-trend. Reversal below support at ¥96 is now unlikely.
* Target calculation: 1.01 + ( 1.01 – 0.94 ) = 1.08
Recovery of Canada’s Loonie above $0.96 would complete a second higher trough against its US neighbor. Breakout above $0.9750 would signal a primary up-trend, but breach of primary support at $0.9450 is as likely and would signal continuation of the primary down-trend. Another 13-week Twiggs Momentum peak below zero would also indicate a down-trend.
The Aussie Dollar is testing medium-term support at $0.93*. Respect of the zero line by 63-day Twiggs Momentum suggests continuation of the down-trend. Breach of support at $0.93 would confirm, signaling a test of primary support at $0.89. Recovery above $0.9450 is less likely, but would a rally to $0.9750. The RBA needs a weaker Aussie Dollar, without lowering interest rates, and will do all it can to assist the decline.
* Target calculation: 0.975 + ( 0.975 – 0.95 ) = 1.00
The Aussie continues to test support at $1.12 against its Kiwi neighbor. Rising Momentum suggests another rally to $1.16, confirmed if resistance at $1.14 is broken. But breakout below $1.12 would signal a decline to $1.08*. Breakout above $1.16 would complete a triple-bottom reversal with a target of $1.20*.
* Target calculations: 1.12 – ( 1.16 – 1.12 ) = 1.08 OR 1.16 + ( 1.16 – 1.12 ) = 1.20
