Daily Market Analysis –Markets Downward Bias Continues



After being range bound for the last two months, most of the markets seem to be breaking out of this trading pattern to the downside. It remains to be seen what will rescue the markets from their downward slide. Today’s big event is the US presidential election. It will be interesting to see how and if that changes market conditions. It’s more likely, however, that tomorrow’s European Central Bank (ECB) press conference will have more of an impact on the market.    For those interested in a more in depth analysis, we at CM trading are here to assist those who are interested in profiting from the financial markets.

EURUSD 

The currency pair is currently trading at 1.2775, slightly above its 1.2750 support level. If the pair gets above 1.28, its next level up is 1.2840.  At 6:00am, data on monthly German Factory Orders will be released.

AUDUSD

Yesterday’s higher than expected interest rate announcement from the Reserve Bank of Australia proved to be quite bullish for the currency pair.

In the other direction, 1.0415 is the first support level followed by 1.0365.
