USD/JPY Price Forecast – US dollar forming a base against Japanese yen
The US dollar has bounced recently from the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level, and we are now hovering just above the ¥112 level. At this point, it looks as if we could rally from here but we also get the FOMC Meeting Minutes late on Wednesday that could influence where we go next.

GBP/JPY Price Forecast – British pound pulls back on Wednesday
The British pound pulled back during the trading session on Wednesday, reentering the gap that had formed at the beginning of the week. It does look as if the buyers are trying to come back though, and I think that the ¥146.50 level should of course be interesting as well.

Forex Daily Outlook – October 17, 2018
The market could witness significant buying interest around the 1.31 and 1.30 level, all which are strong support points. The 0.71 and 0.70 levels underneath are the strong support points and the market is likely to hold on the levels. The pair retraced from the 61.8% of the Fibonacci level at 111.50 level, an area which has been important in the past.

USD/JPY Price Forecast – US dollar rallies for Tuesday
The US dollar rallied during the day on Tuesday, reaching towards the recent consolidation area. The pair of course is very sensitive to stock markets overall and the risk appetite in general, so I think that we should pay attention to the S&P 500 as a result.

GBP/JPY Price Forecast – British pound soars during Tuesday session
The British pound took off to the upside during the Tuesday session against the Japanese yen as more of a “risk on” flavor came back into the marketplace. However, as the Americans have stepped on board, it looks as if we may be a little overstretched as we are running into some recent selling pressure around the ¥148 level.

Crude Oil Firms After API Reports Surprise Draw
Adding to the dollar’s weakness was the consolidation of Treasury yields. After yields surged to multi-year highs last week, the rise in yields has subsided, reducing demand for the dollar. Gold improved on Tuesday, but the market posted an inside move, which typically indicates investor indecision and impending volatility. Traders said the gains were related to short-covering. New longs appeared to be scarce since the rally in the equity markets forced them to re-evaluate their reasons for being long. U.S. West Texas Intermediate and international-benchmark Brent crude oil futures settled higher on Tuesday after the American Petroleum Institute reported a surprise crude oil draw.

Technical Checks For EUR/USD, USD/JPY, AUD/USD & USD/CAD: 16.10.2018
Even after recovering from 1.1430-25 support-zone, the EURUSD has to surpass 100-day SMA level of 1.1630 in order to justify its strength in targeting the seven-month long descending resistance-line, around 1.1730. Should prices rally beyond 1.1730 on a daily closing basis, the 1.1810 & 1.1850 are likely intermediate halts that can be availed prior to aiming the 1.1920 level, comprising 200-day SMA. In case the pair witness downside pressure, the 1.1520, the 1.1500 and the 1.1430 may entertain short-term sellers before again highlighting the importance of 1.1430-25 area. ...

The 1.16 level is continuing to offer a bit of resistance to the pair and if it breaks higher then it next major stop for the market will be at 1.17 level. The market is still in the consolidation phase and 1.15 level underneath will be the strong support point for the pair. Buying on dips will be the right strategy for this market. …Read MoreGBP/USD

USD/JPY Price Forecast – US dollar looking for support
The US dollar broke down below the ¥112 level during the early hours of Monday but has found a little bit of support near the ¥111.50 level, an area of previous resistance. At this point, it looks as if we are trying to form some type of bottoming pattern, but I think you should be very cautious if you are looking to go long.

The Euro rallied during the Thursday’s session on the back of weak US CPI data reaching towards the 1.16 level, which is offering a bit of resistance.

USD/JPY Price Forecast – US dollar sideways for the Wednesday session
The US dollar continues to show weakness against the Japanese yen and a miss for the CPI figures out of America didn’t help the situation either. It looks as if the ¥112 level underneath should offer support though, so I think it is only a matter of time before we see a bit of a bounce. The recent selloff has been exacerbated by the bloodletting on Wall Street during Tuesday.

GBP/JPY Price Forecast – British pound continues to grind sideways against yen
The British pound rallied during the US session on Thursday, reaching towards the ¥149 level before pulling back a bit.
