Technical analysis of EUR/USD and GBP/USD on August 29, 2022

EUR/USD

Higher time frames

Last week, the pair hit a new extreme low (0.9952) and closed below the psychological level of 1.0000. If the downtrend goes on, the targets are seen at 0.9000 (psychological level) and 0.8225 (2000 extreme low). In this light, bulls will try to break through 1.0000. Ichimoku Kinko Hyo resistance is currently standing at 1.0052 – 1.0080 – 1.0135 – 1.0190 and 1.0182 (weekly short-term trend).

H4 – H1

The bullish zone is again lost. There is a strong bearish bias as trading is below the key levels of 0.9963 (weekly long-term trend) and 1.0000 (central Pivot level). A change in the balance of power will again shift if the price consolidates above these marks. Resistance is seen at 1.0054 – 1.0143 – 1.0197 (classic Pivot levels). Should bears remain strong, the quote may fall to 0.9911 – 0.9857 – 0.9768 (classic Pivot support).
