The oil price continues to slide to 7 year lows as markets fully digest OPEC’s decision on Friday to essentially drop production quota by retaining production at current levels. Noteworthy loser is Brent oil which has shed 9% of its value since the ECB meeting on Thursday. As a result, commodity currencies (CAD, NOK and AUD) where hit hard since then. Overnight, AUDUSD traded weaker despite strong business survey results last month and the JPY held stronger on Tuesday in Asia despite disappointing third quarter growth figures. AUDUSD previously hit a 3.5 month high at 0.7386 before collapsing to 0.7210 levels. Asian Stocks hit 3 week lows as oil prices knocked energy company shares lower. EURUSD is marginally higher today, testing 1.0860 area. Traders minds will remain on central bank activities including RBNZ, SNB and BoE this week. And more importantly, Fed is generally expected to hike interest rate next week.
Trading quote of the day:
– Alexander Elder
Green lines are resistance, Red lines are support.
EUR/USD
Pivot: 1.09
Likely scenario: short positions below 1.09 with targets @ 1.076 & 1.069 in extension.
Alternative scenario: above 1.09 look for further upside with 1.098 & 1.109 as targets.
Comment: as long as 1.09 is resistance, likely decline to 1.076.
GBP/USD
Pivot: 1.509
Likely scenario: short positions below 1.509 with targets @ 1.5 & 1.4955 in extension.
Alternative scenario: above 1.509 look for further upside with 1.5115 & 1.5155 as targets.
Comment: the RSI is mixed to bearish.
AUD/USD
Pivot: 0.7285
Likely scenario: short positions below 0.7285 with targets @ 0.719 & 0.7165 in extension.

Comment: the RSI has broken down its 30 level.
USD/JPY
Pivot: 122.9

Alternative scenario: above 1.0035 look for further upside with 1.0115 & 1.0175 as targets.
Comment: as long as the resistance at 1.0035 is not surpassed, the risk of the break below 0.9945 remains high.
