EUR/USD

The EUR/USD currency pair broke the level of 1.3050, and then tested the area of 1.3170. At the moment the price is testing the descending channel’s broken border, one can consider buying Euro from the current levels. The stop must be placed below 1.3080, the target of the growth is the area of 1.3285. We recommend to increase the amount of long positions only after the price breaks the level of 1.3175. If the pair falls down lower than 1.3050, this case scenario will be cancelled.

The GBP/USD currency pair has reached all the targets of the growth and already tested the resistance level of 1.5965. If the price tests this strong level once again, it may be broken in an upward direction. At shorter time frames we can see the formation of the ascending symmetrical pattern. At the moment Pound may start growing from the current levels into the area of 1.6030, which is expected to be a starting point of the correction to the level of 1.5990, and then a new ascending movement into the area of 1.6075. If Pound falls down lower than 1.5865, this case scenario will be cancelled.
