AUDJPY Daily and 1 Hour Charts

Daily Chart Inside Bars Winding up

Price action on the daily chart of the AUDJPY has formed three consecutive inside bars winding up tighter and tighter.

As the daily chart shows below; price has recently sold off heavily after breaking out of the sideways consolidation pattern it was trading in.

The high and low of this tight box and wind up could now be watched on the intraday charts such as the 1 hour chart for possible price action clues.

NZDUSD Daily Chart

Price Slides Lower

After attempting to form a trend higher on the daily chart, price has sold off and crashed through the key support level.

Price is now just grinding lower without forming any candles of substance. The daily support and resistance looks to be key for where price moves next.

If price rotates higher and makes a strong rejection, then we could see another leg lower and a possible breakout through support.

EURCAD Daily Chart

Price Breaks Flip Level

This is a bit of a strange looking price action chart. We can see in recent times price had been stuck in a long term range before breaking lower. This breakout lower was short-lived and price moved right back into the range.

Now price is looking to once again bust below the range level support and potentially make a decent move lower.

The level price is looking to breakout lower through could act as a price flip level and an old support / new resistance for possible short trades. Bearish price action clues could be watched for on the smaller intraday time frames.

US30 Daily Chart

Major Resistance Could be Crucial

It has been an interesting past week on the international stock markets with some aggressive selling, followed by price pegging back some losses.

On the US30 we can see this occurred over the previous week with a large daily sell off followed by prices bouncing back higher.

As the daily chart shows below; price is now tracking higher and possibly into the overhead key resistance level. This is the same level that price made it’s last aggressive move lower from.

This level looks to be crucial and a major watch over the coming sessions.
