The euro and pound suspiciously look to have fallen into the holiday reversal trap, where prices are pushed against the trend in lower volumes to allow for better entries into the wider trend. As such, both the euro and the pound tapped their greater 50% shorts and are currently reacting to them and dropping nicely.

Euro Dollar:

The euro looks to have created a range between its full half way back from June at 1.30742 and its 50% short at 1.33777 (1.343 acting as strong resistance.) The greater trend is still short, with 1.347 being the line in the sand.

Pound:

The pound continues in its orderly measured moves short and has reacted off its next short at 1.56273, with a target at 1.52104. Next major support is at the half way back from May at 1.52622.

Yen ( USD/JPY):

On the daily, still in extension short from 84.592 and has been moving steadily towards its target of 78.227, which would be an all time low. Next major level of support is previous low of 80.234.

Today: Free webinar on ForexPros - Trading Bull Spreads on Currencies

Expert: Dan Cook

Start : Mon, Jan 10, 2011, 10:00 ET

End : Mon, Jan 10, 2011, 11:00 ET

Have you ever felt like the forex market has eyes? It can somehow find your stop, just before it changes direction and moves in what would have been your favor. As a result, have you struggled with risk management and where to place a proper stop? Have you placed an order to buy or sell in what seemed like calm markets only to watch volatility spike and price whipsaw you right out of your trade while slipping your stop?

If you have been trading currencies for more than a day or two, the answer to all of these questions is probably yes. In addition to these, currency traders face a multitude more questions and challenges on a daily basis. There are definitely no easy answers in any market, but one new product available through IG Markets on the North American Derivatives Exchange may help.

FX Bull Spreads are an exchange traded product that offers the benefits of effective leverage while allowing the trader exacting risk control measures. Additionally, since these are limited risk, options type contracts, traders do not have to worry about placing stops that could be taken out by a quick adverse market movement and thus afford themselves the time to be right.

During this 45-minute webinar, Dan Cook of IG Markets will introduce participants to the basics of the FX Bull Spread Product. Dan will explain how these simple contracts work and how they may compliment your current trading strategy or how they may even become the focal point of your trading strategy moving forward. Once the basics are covered, Dan will present a few strategies designed to utilize the unique structure of the FX Bull Spread product and will demonstrate how these strategies can be used in both calm and volatile markets.

Euro Dollar:

On the daily, the euro surged today and hit some resistance at the 50% traditional short at 1.31478, with a target at 1.27343. We will see if it acts as significant resistance and the euro continues in its short daily trend.

Pound:

On the daily, the pound broke its short setups and hit its 61.8% target of the 50% long it was in from 1.55222. The full half way back short of the whole short trend from November is at 1.58204, where the pound can be expected to encounter some resistance. The daily short trend is only broken at 1.5933, so it remains to be seen if today's surge was a sign of things to come or just a move back into the next short setup.

Yen:

On the daily the yen is in a long setup from 82.649, with a target at 84.187 currently in a range between the 50% long and the 83.4-83.5 area. Larger short above at 84.592, which was tested in November/December 2010, with a target at 78.227.

The euro and pound are showing possible reversal patterns best seen on the 15 minute chart.

Euro Dollar:

On the 15 min, the euro is showing a possible reversal and is testing its long setup, breaking the trend of the past weeks. A break of 1.3425 is a break of the long the euro has been in. This may only be a reversal into the next long setup, but the play the trend as it lies. Currently the daily pivot at 1.3459 is holding down the market.

Pound:

On the 15 min chart, the pound is below the daily pivot testing its long and is showing a reversal pattern. The pound is in its second measured move short . A break of 1.59035 confirms the break of the long the pound has been in for the last 2 days. Technically on the daily the pound is still long, but this may reversal into next long setup. Always play the trend.

Yen:

On the daily, the yen is confirming its short, by breaking though its 61.8% at 81.976, though the line is currently acting as resistance. Will the yen march down to new lows or will we see a bounce here?
