Technical Checks For EUR/USD, AUD/USD, NZD/USD & USD/CHF: 11.12.2018
Considering a month long symmetrical triangle formation on EURUSD chart, the pair is less likely to register much momentum till it trades within the present range of 1.1305 and the 1.1435. Though, comparative strength of the US Dollar favor brighter chances of the pair’s decline than the otherwise, which in-turn highlights the importance of 1.1260 and the 1.1215 supports after 1.1305 break. In case prices continue drowning past-1.1215, the 1.1110 & 1.1080 may become Bears’ favorites. Meanwhile, an upside break of 1.1435 can trigger the pair’s rise to 1. ...

AUD/USD and NZD/USD Fundamental Daily Forecast – Uncertainty Over US-China Relations Keeping Lid on Rallies
In my opinion, the single biggest influence on the Aussie and Kiwi at this time is U.S.-China relations. Even a Wall Street Journal article saying the Fed is likely to take a “wait-and-see” approach to future rate hikes failed to bring buyers into the AUD/USD and NZD/USD. Although we’re likely to see periodic rallies tied to oversold conditions or economic data, I don’t think the Australian and New Zealand Dollars will be able to mount a strong rally as long as there is uncertainty over the trade talks.

Technical Overview of EUR/USD, GBP/USD, USD/JPY & NZD/USD: 04.12.2018
In spite of the EURUSD’s recent recovery, the pair is still left to surpass 1.1430-35 resistance-confluence, comprising 50-day SMA & immediate TL barrier, which in-turn may trigger the quote’s dip to 1.1300 but an upward slanting support-line, at 1.1280, can limit its additional downside. In case the pair continue trading southwards past-1.1280, the 1.1260 and the 1.1215 could be cause of concern as break of which might not hesitate fetching the pair to 61.8% FE level of 1.1100.

AUD/USD and NZD/USD Fundamental Weekly Forecast – Cooling U.S. Inflation, Softening Fed Could Underpin Prices
The Aussie and Kiwi strengthened last week because traders perceived the events as a bit dovish, encouraging the need for traders to aggressively adjust short positions. The CPI report, for example, suggested inflation is not overheating and may even be close to slowing down because of the plunge in crude oil and gasoline prices. The Fed comments also suggest a softer tone may be developing at the central bank. These factors could combine to convince the Fed to slow down the pace of rate hikes in 2019.

The AUD/USD and NZD/USD should continue to be underpinned as long as investors remain optimistic over the developments over US-China trade relations.

Technical Overview of EUR/USD, GBP/USD, USD/JPY & NZD/USD: 13.11.2018
Given the EURUSD’s extended downturn beneath 1.1300-1.1285 support-area, comprising 200-week SMA, the pair is likely to avail the 1.1120 and the 1.1020 rest-points prior to meeting the 1.1000 round-figure. In case the pair continue trading southwards past-1.1000, the 1.0835-25 and the 1.0770 may entertain the Bears. Alternatively, a D1 close beyond 1.1300 can trigger the pair’s recovery targeting the 1.1360 and the 1.1430 immediate barriers ahead of confronting the 1.1500-1.1510 resistance-area.
