EURUSD remains bearish under resistance at 1.4420/1.4580.
EUR/USD remains bearish, despite the recent sharp reactionary bouncewhich eventually stalled around resistance at 1.4420 (pivot zone). This
confirms yet another bearish signal, weighed down by additional failed
breakouts (see red arrows) from this major Bermuda triangle pattern,
which has proved costly to most investors and traders.
We prefer to open a trade setup once this pattern triggers a meaningfuldirectional breakout into either 1.4160 or 1.4580 (on a closing basis).
Our bearish view remains in play while the downtrend (from May 04th)holds. A resumption lower will target 1.3962 (200-DMA), where a large
amount of die-hard trend followers will be watching closely for repeat
support or a big squeeze lower toward our initial objectives at 1.3770 and
1.3410. Only a close above 1.4580 will lead to a reassessment of this view.
Inversely, the US dollar index is maintaining consolidation above keysupport at 73.50-73.00. We expect this level to hold (as the last point of
defence), helping launch a rebound back into 80.00 over the multi-
week/month horizon. COT liquidity readings are currently neutral and must
return back to our upside t rigger level of 15000 net long contracts.

A re-test of 1.6747 remains possible near-term.
GBP/USD found support at 1.6111 and has since pushed back over the1.6476/78 ceiling, reaching 1.6618 thus far, next targeting a return to
1.6747.
Short-term structure remains positive and we continue to be biasedtowards a return to 1.6747 while above 1.6421. Below this level will
weaken our shorter-term bullish stance.
However due to structure present since 1.6111, we would expect anypotential break over 1.6747 to be minimal, with resistance expected close
to 1.6800.
We also view the recent break down to 1.6421 as the first signs of abreakdown in structure, so remain wary of aggressively following
momentum at these levels, keeping our options open for possible signs of
exhaustion too.
Failure to remain above 1.6093 (200-day MA) will warn of a fresh relapsetowards 1.5781, in the longer-term.

Potential BUY signal after NEW Record Low.
USD/JPY has developed a potential DeMark exhaustion buy signal, afterlast week's new post WWII record low which was carved out at 75.95. The
reversal signal is also taking place following the second post intervention
retracement (PIR II) in 2011, which is holding around multi-day support
near 76.30-25.
We remain bullish in the medium/long-term, watching for a sustained moveabove our initial upside trigger level at 77.00-77.20. This would initiate our
buy trade setup, offering a resumption of the preferred new structural bull-
cycle into the all-important psychological level at 80.00, near 80.24 (post
BOJ intervention II high).
Keep in mind that such a scenario would help reactivate the longer-termmonthly DeMark exhaustion signal, with TD Risk lines still holding at 79.83
and 76.79. Remember, only a sustained weekly close below here and 76.25
will lead to a reassessment of our view.

Tight consolidation continues. Pullback sought.
USD/CHF when viewed from a weekly perspective has the appearance of apossible false break lower. With this in mind, we continue to favour the
formation of a higher low versus 0.7071 for a further recovery leg higher.
However, we are inclined to wait for a pullback before committing to longpositioning, expecting a breakout from the recent tight hourly
consolidation between 0.7770 and 0.8017, with a bias to the downside.
We also remain of the view that the current region may potentially offermedium-term scope for USD/CHF long positioning.
However, we are also wary of issues in the Eurozone periphery which havebeen responsible for the extreme pricing we see now. We await the
appropriate short-term set up, keeping an eye on periphery government
bond yields.

Unwinding beneath 1.0000.
USD/CADs accelerated recovery is finally unwinding, having reached thatall-important 1.0000 parity level.
However, expect to see further unwinding into near-term support at0.9751 and 0.9670, before a resumption higher. We are watching for a
renewed buy trade setup, favouring a major upsurge into 1.0210 plus.
Elsewhere, EUR/CAD is still also unwinding from overbought condition,having recently accelerated above its 200-day MA. Key resistance at
1.4379 (June swing high) is likely to hold.
CHF/CAD is consolidating after its sharp decline from extremelyoverbought conditions, having triggered a bearish reversal pattern. Key
support can be found at 1.2260 (17th Aug swing low), then 1.1880 and
1.1240.

Sharp decline unwinds from 1.0000 (parity).
AUD/USDs sharp decline is unwinding after reaching key level at 1.0000(parity). We are watching for new sell trade setup into this bounce.
The current oversold bounce is likely to hold for a few sessions and wewould look to sell into this for a resumption back into 1.0000 and 0.9706.
Elsewhere, the Aussie dollar remains weak against the New Zealand dollar.The pair is still locked within its new bear cycle structure while it holds
beneath its 200-day MA. Key support can be found at 1.2320.
The Aussie dollar is unwinding against the Japanese yen, following itssharp pattern breakout which extended beneath key support at 80.42
(61.8% Fib). The move adds to current risk aversion in the global financial
community.

Lower high sought for fresh weakness.
GBP/JPY remains close to the 127.00 level, so we maintain our originalscenario of a lower high in the 127.35 region for now, with the expectation
of an eventual final leg lower in the fall from 130.85, following the BOJ
intervention earlier in the month.
The weekly timeframe continues to contain price within a falling channel,also maintaining our downside bias. However, we expect strong support
to manifest between 118.85 and 122.36, should the pair weaken to those
levels.
Focusing on the shorter-term timeframe, we see scope for a return to therecent low at 123.31 ahead of a potential recovery higher.
Longer-term we remain biased to a return to the region near 190.00,although any attempt at long positioning needs to be driven by evidence
in the short-term that is suggestive of extended gains in the hourlydaily
timeframe at the very least. A break back under 118.85 is required to
change this longer-term bias.

Hourly consolidation continues.
EUR/JPY continues to be contained by a falling daily channel. A returntowards 108.03 and then 106.61 is favoured over coming sessions.
We have seen a test of the 200 day moving average (currently at 113.73),which has thus far been met by supply, with a relapse back below the
trading range of the last few weeks reaching 108.03 so far.
Infact, while under 114.18 we continue to expect a return to 106.61initially, ahead of a return to 105.44.
We await the formation of short-term structure to assist us in tradedirection. In particular a breakout is sought from the recent consolidation
that has evolved. We look to sell higher.

Return towards 0.8643 favoured.
EUR/GBP has made an initial attempt at pushing under 0.8643, reaching0.8654 thus far. We view a break under 0.8643 as likely triggering a fresh
bout of weakness.
Given that the recovery from 0.8643 to 0.8886 has now been unwound,beyond the 61.8% retrace, we now see an increased probability of an
eventual break under 0.8643.
With this in mind we expect a lower high to form close to current levels,with scope then for a fresh extension lower.
We also note that a push under 0.8643 will begin to break down thepositive structure seen since 0.8285, warning of a longer-term return to
0.8068.
Failure to stay below 0.8760 will warn of a larger corrective phase higherfrom the key low at 0.8643, with potential then for a return to 0.8886
before fresh weakness.

Consolidation continues.
EUR/CHF has left a possible false break lower out of a falling channel. Weawait a push over 1.1892 to confirm this formation.
We have noted on previous reports the link between movements inEUR/CHF and the yield on Eurozone periphery yields. We continue to
monitor the yields on Italian and Spanish 10 year government bonds.
Short-term structure has been consolidating over the last six trading days.A break lower would be favoured, in line with our view in USD/CHF.
However, a higher low is currently expected to form ahead of 1.0075 for a
fresh recovery leg higher.
Alternatively if price action hints at signs of exhaustion, we may betempted to trade with the larger trend and sell into what we initially expect
to be a corrective swing lower.
In the meantime, price remains confined in a tight hourly range. Strongersignals from short-term structure are awaited ahead of trade positioning.

Gold unwinds amidst overbought signals.
Gold is unwinding once again from renewed overbought signals, havingrecently carved out its fresh record high at 1913.50. As previously stated, a
sustained confirmation above these new levels will offer extensions into the
all-important 2000.00 level. We remain long, with an aggressive trailing
stop-loss in place.
Mild unwinding in gold can also be seen against key currencies (includingFX majors; EUR, GBP, CHF and commodity-driven AUD & ZAR).
In terms of the big picture, we continue to encourage strong risk-management, as prices extend the surge above its 12-year trend-channel.
The unsustainable parabolic move also maintains a unique long-term
DeMark exhaustion signal, which coincides with an important peak cycle
on Gold.
The bearish risk for Gold is still weighed by the CMEs recent hike inmargins, which often occurs during major highs (akin to Silvers crash in
April). Watch support at 1720.00 and 1640.40. A break warns of a sharper
reversal lower through the previous psychological level at 1600.00.

Relief-rally unwinds from our target zone at 43.8480.
Silver's relief-rally is unwinding lower, in line with Gold's latest rise, aftertesting our target zone at 43.8477-80. Only a sustained close above here
will offer further gains into 45.6650, where we believe some further
unwinding may occur.
Near-term support can be found at 38.2100 (20th July low). A break herewould trigger downside risk into 34.8096 (200-dMA).
Key macro support exists at 26.9600 (50% Fib-1999 bull market) and wouldstill mean that silvers long-term uptrend remains intact.
We also continue to watch silvers relative performance against gold, whichis currently unwinding (already up 37%), from extreme oversold conditions.
