Todays Forex Technical Analysis 22 Oct 2008

 
Technical Analysis
EUR/USD

The pair crossed the key psychological level of 1.3000 yesterday, for the first time since August 2007, further demonstrating how strong the current downtrend is. On the daily chart, the pair is still floating beneath the Bollinger Band's lower border, indicating that the pair might extend its bearish move. Going short with tight stops might be the right choice today.
GBP/USD

The Cable is in the middle of a very intensive downtrend that started a week ago and shows great momentum that on a bigger scale appears to have more room to run. Currently, all oscillators on the hourly chart are pointing down and it seems that going short will be the right choice today.
USD/JPY

The pair has been range-trading for a while now, with no specific direction. The Daily chart's Slow Stochastic providing us with mixed signals. All oscillators on the 4 hour chart do not provide a clear direction as well. Waiting for a clearer sign on the hourlies might be a good strategy today.
USD/CHF

This pair is still in the midst of a steady uptrend which is not yet showing any sign of leveling out. The RSI and Momentum on the daily chart are still positively sloped indicating that there is still plenty of steam left in this bullish move. Once this pair breaches the 1.1750 level it's likely to make another sharp break upwards.

These releases can have a significant impact on currency markets, so it's important to be aware of them and factor them into your trading decisions. Trade with the trend. This is a basic but important trading principle. When the trend is up, look to buy. When the trend is down, look to sell. Trying to trade against the trend is usually a recipe for failure. Use stop losses. Stop losses are a way to limit your losses on a trade. When you place a stop loss, you're essentially telling your broker to sell your position if the price reaches a certain level. This can help you to protect your capital and avoid large losses. Be patie...

Swiss Franc Expected to Weaken Further

Retail forex traders remain aggressively net-short the US Dollar (ticker: USDOLLAR) against the Swiss Franc as it presses to fresh highs, and such one-sided sentiment gives contrarian signal that the pair may continue to strengthen. Traders first turned net-short the USDCHF as it crossed above SFr 0.9300 through early May. The same crowds briefly turned net-long USD as the pair fell through mid-June, but they’ve since returned to their bearish position.
