Details of the economic calendar from June 21

The only thing that could serve as an incentive for speculators was the return of traders from the United States to the markets after the weekend.

Analysis of trading charts from June 21

The EURUSD currency pair returned to the mirror level of 1.0500 after a short upward momentum. This amplitude movement indicates a high speculative interest among market participants.

The GBPUSD currency pair rushed down following the euro, winning back the recent price rebound from the support area of 1.2155/1.2180. In fact, we have a signal to resume the downward cycle.

A stable holding of the price below the level of 1.0500 may lead to a subsequent increase in the volume of short positions. In this case, there will be an increase in the downward move towards the values of 1.0470, 1.0400, 1.0350.

An alternative scenario considers a regular repetition of the past associated with the level of 1.0500. This can lead to stagnation followed by a price rebound.

In this situation, the main increase in the volume of short positions will occur after the price holds below the value of 1.2155 in a four-hour period. This move will lead to further weakening of the British currency towards the psychological level of 1.2000.

Otherwise, the current support area could slow down the downward cycle, eventually leading to a rebound.
