Recommendation:

BUY 1.2885

SL 1.283

TP1 1.2985 TP2 1.313a TP3 1.325

On the daily chart, the inability of bears to hold USD/CAD below the lower border of the uptrend channel points at sellers’ weakness. To restore the uptrend and reach 88.6% target of the “Shark” pattern, bulls need to conquer resistance at 1.2922.

On H1, return to resistance area at 78.6% and 88.6% of the wave 4-5 of the “Widening wedge” means that bulls are in control.

EUR/USD Daily Analytics
12:01 12.12.2017

There's a "V-Bottom" pattern, so the price is consolidating under the 55 Moving Average. The main intraday target is the nearest resistance area at 1.1828 - 1.1847. If a pullback from these levels happens little later on, there'll be an opportunity to have a decline towards the next support at 1.1772 - 1.1756.

The price is consolidating near the 89 Moving Average. Also, there's a "Triple Bottom" pattern, so bulls are likely going to test the nearest resistance at 1.1828 - 1.1847. Meanwhile, if a pullback from this area arrives little later on, we could have a decline in the direction of another support at 1.1772 - 1.1756.

GBP/USD Daily Analytics
12:16 12.12.2017

We've got a "V-Top", so the price is consolidating. The main intraday target is the closest resistance at 1.3408 - 1.3430. If the price forms a pullback from these levels, there'll be an opportunity to have a downward price movement towards the 89 Moving Average.

Bears faced with support at 1.3336, which led to the current consolidation. It's likely that the pair is going to test the closest resistance at 1.3408 - 1.3430 in the coming hours. If a pullback from this area happens afterwards, bears will probably try to test the next support at 1.3319 - 1.3278.

12:23 12.12.2017

The 55 & 89 Moving Averages are acting as resistance, so there's a "Shooting Star" pattern, which has been confirmed. In this case, if a pullback from the 34 MA happens soon, there'll be an opportunity to have another decline.

There are bearish patterns such a "Doji" and a "Harami", which both have been formed on the 55 Moving Average. So, the market is likely going to decline towards the nearest support area in the short term.

USD/JPY Daily Analytics
12:25 12.12.2017

We've got a bearish "Harami", but confirmation of this pattern is a quite weak. Therefore, the pair is likely going to test the upper "Window", which could be a departure point for a downward correction.

The price is still consolidating. The 21 Moving Average is acting as support. It seems like we're going to have a new local high in the coming hours. If any bearish pattern forms afterwards, there'll be a moment to have a decline.

There's a possible ending diagonal in wave 5. If correct, we're likely going to have wave [iii] inside this pattern. So, we should keep an eye on +2/8 MM Level as the next bullish target.

We've got an upward impulse, which could be wave i. If so, wave ii is about to end. Therefore, there's an opportunity to have wave iii of (a). The main intraday target is 5/8 MM Levels.

GBP/USD Daily Analytics
01:15 13.12.2017
GBP/USD remains supported by the Fibonacci zone of 65% at 1.3335 and looks forward to test fresh highs across the board. Such level should give up in order to invalidate the bullish scenario and the next target will be the November 28th lows at 1.3220. However, to the upside, if the pair manages to break above December 8th highs, then the next target lies at -23.6% Fibo level at 1.3626.

RSI indicator remains hovering in the positive territory.

BITCOIN (BTC/USD) Daily Analytics
01:26 13.12.2017
The optimism for Bitcoin is still latent in the financial markets and is that during the session of December 11, it reached new heights above the barrier of 17,000. Recall that the BTC/USD has been bouncing from the 200-hour moving average and this has helped it gain momentum in the short and medium term.

The resistance of 17,076 continues to be a major obstacle for the bulls and it is possible that news regarding the capitalization of cryptocurrency in the futures market in the United States continues to be the main driver of movements in the short term. During the first day of operations, the BTC remained bullish and above the 17,000 mark.

In a few minutes, the Bitcoin moved about 1,000 against the US dollar, which indicates that there is still caution regarding the interest of this cryptocurrency in the futures market. According to the capitalization shown by CoinMarketCap, the BTC has been showing gains among the top 10 of the main critics worldwide, making a total of $ 456 billion dollars.

What do we expect?

According to our projections on the H1 chart, the Parabolic SAR continues to support the bullish price action in the Bitcoin and it is possible that the rebound made on the 200-hour moving average is enough to reach the next Fibonacci target of -23.6% in 19,114.29. On the downside, we have a strong support in the psychological barrier of 15,000. The RSI remains in positive territory, favoring the bullish scenario for the short term.

BUY 0.9855

SL 0.98

TP1 0.9955 TP2 1.0005 TP3 1.0145

On the daily chart, a break of support at 0.9880-0.9890 will allow bears to develop correction to the lower border of an uptrend channel. On the other hand, a pullback can create grounds for an advance towards 200% target of AB=CD.

On H1, USD/CHF is transforming the inverted “Shark” pattern into 5-0. Usually, a pullback of the pair from 38.2%, 50% and 61.8% of the wave CD is used for opening long positions.

SL 1.3375

TP1 1.3530 TP2 1.3585

On the daily chart, GBP/USD is retesting the upper border of the previous consolidation range 1.3040-1.3320.

On H1, GBP/USD has almost reached 78.6% target of the “Gartley” pattern. A pullback of support at 1.3295 with the following return inside the uptrend channel will allow bulls to develop their attack.

09:54 13.12.2017

Bears faced with support at 1.1712, so there's a "V-Bottom", which pushed the price to the nearest resistance at 1.1756. Considering that there was a pullback from the Moving Averages, the market is likely going to test the nearest support at 1.1712 - 1.1695 in the short term.

There's a "Double Top", which has been formed under the 34 Moving Average. The main intraday target is the next support at 1.1712 - 1.1695.

EUR/JPY Daily Analytics
07:59 14.12.2017
Recommendation: BUY 134 SL 133.45 TP1 135 TP2 136 TP3 138

On the daily chart, EUR/JPY keeps consolidating in the 131.50-133.95 within the “Spike and ledge”. Another test of resistance at 133.95 in case of success will increase the odds of an advance to 200% target of AB=CD.

On H1, a “Widening wedge” pattern is still actual. Bulls and bears didn’t choose a winner, but a successful test of resistance at 134 will mean the victory of the euro against the Japanese yen.
