Technical analysis and forecasts

Currencies are believed to move in cycles, which means that one may try to estimate and predict their future fluctuations. Technical analysis helps to look into behavior of currency pairs on the basis of traded value, movement direction, investors’ common interests, and fluctuations history.

Technical analysis offers a trader a range of patterns that can predict price movement. Some of them predict a price reversal in one direction or another, others - a repetition of changes. To make it easier to use technical analysis, there is a number of indicators that include several parameters from the price chart. So, both experienced and novice traders can resort to technical analysis - it is believed that both of them should be familiar with the basics of technical analysis. It should be noted that forecasts made based on technical analysis cannot be considered 100% accurate, but they can still make trading more efficient. This page presents conclusions and forecasts made by RoboForex experts based on tech analysis.

Technical Analysis 17.09 (EUR/USD, GBP/USD, USD/CHF, AUD/USD)

The EUR/USD currency pair continues to grow, however it will be slightly corrected. The price is testing the upper line of the rising channel, which is a spot where the 4th point of reference is formed. We can expect the pair to fall from this spot into the area of 1.2890. Only after that we will try to buy the pair with the target in the area of 1.3220.

Looks like the Dollar Index will continue to fall. Yesterday the price tested the neckline of the “head &shoulders” reversal pattern. At the moment the target of this fall is the area of 80.24, which means that, in comparison to the most currency pairs, Dollar will continue to fall.
15.09.2010

Technical Analysis 15.09 (EUR/USD, GBP/USD, USDCAD, AUD/USD)

The rising expansion pattern has been completely formed. At the moment we can expect the correction of the pair. After the rising channel is broken, one can try to sell the pair with the stop behind the local maximum. The first target is 1.2895, the next one is 1.2835.
14.09.2010

Technical Analysis 14.09 (EUR/USD, USDCAD, EURP/JPY, Dollar Index)

The EUR/USD is moving according to the forecast. At the moment we can expect the final rising movement into the area of 1.2930-1.2955. So we can either continue to buy or try to open long positions with the tight stop.
