AUD: We expected an aggressive rally into 0.77300 for a short sell last week but that didn’t come in as price stopped 20 pipz shy of that zone. The Dip went on to violate the 0.76200 medium term key Zone. Looking into the week, we will be looking out for two things
1. A break back above the 0.76200 zone implying we may still get a retest of the key zone before determining an upside break-out or a failure of bear trend continuation.
2. Failure @ 0.76200 for a downtrend continuation (Highly Likely).
BIAS: Bearish. Sell @ 0.76200.
CAD: The Loonie strengthened against the Greenback in a surprise move slicing below the 2008/2009 Lows setting record new lows for the year, this was on the back of the Strong employment data that was posted on friday. Going into the week we still believe the bull trend is still in place therefore we will want to see the 2005/2015 highs @ 1.27500&1.28300 hold support, a violation of that zone may likely lead to a free fall and negate the current bearish trend.
BIAS: Bullish. Buy @ 1.28300.
EUR: A bit tough to determine what the fiber is up to, though its looking like the bulls are not ready to shift ground anytime soon but price is a round a Sell area the 2015/2016 highs @ 1.1500/1.14500 which we expect to put pressure on the fiber, we observe an intermediate R-Zone that price also has to contend with @ 1.14200. The Zone to watch out for in the coming week will be 1.1500/1.14500/1.14200.
BIAS: Bearish. Sell @ 1.14500~1.14200.

BIAS: Bullish. Buy @ 1.28500
JPY: The JPY is clearly in an uptrend after scaling above the 1994 high @ 113.600, we expect the uptrend continuation to terminate @ 114.300 for a possible deep retracement, or a retest of 113.600 for a bullish trend to 115.000.
BIAS: 1. Bullish. Buy @ 113.750 if price moves down first else / Sell @ 114.300 if price continues its ascent up.
NZD: Price is closing in on the Potential major sell area from 2011/2012 lows @ 0.73800 & 0.74500 respectively.

XAU: Price has broken below the important zone at 1226.00 putting the bullish trend at risk. The last frontier happens to be the 1204.40 Support Zone culminating into the D-Leg of a Bullish Bat @ 88.6. We expect the bulls to step in at this juncture.

EURAUD: The Solid bull rally since the beginning of the year is at a make or break point on the EURAUD finding Resistance @ the lows of 2000 @ 1.5000, a break above here will see prices move into the 99 lows and possibly 2005 lows @ 1.5500. Moving into the week, if the bull rally is anything to go by then we should be looking at buying from 1.49900.
BIAS: Bullish. Buy @ 1.49900.

EURGBP: Though last week was a bullish week we still expect the bears to dominate this pair as price failed to break above the Key 2013 R zone @ 0.88200, although price is trading above this zone we expect to see the 0.88700 Medium term R-zone which has resisted price for 5 weeks now still hold ground.
BIAS: Bearish. Sell @ 0.88700.
EURJPY: We expect an ABCD pattern completion at the 2005 lows @ 130.500. Though the bullish trend is still in force we will be looking at Selling from that zone. If Price fails b4 130.500 we will sell the failure @ 129.700 else we look to sell btw 130.500~131.00
