EURUSD, GBPUSD and NZDUSD on the back of weak dollar
Looking at the chart on the daily time frame, we see that EURUSD is still recording gains on the chart. The pair found support at 1.18000 at 23.6% Fibonacci level with the help of a 50-day moving average. Our next bullish target is at 38.2% Fibonacci level at 1.18940, where our previous high is from the beginning of August. In the following, our target is 50.0% Fibonacci level at 1.19650 and the previous high from July. We need a pullback below the 50-day moving average and 23.6% Fibonacci levels for the bearish trend. After that, there is a chance to visit the previous low in the zone 1.16500-1.17000.
GBPUSD chart analysis
Looking at the graph on the daily time frame, we see that GBPUSD is still making shifts to the bullish side by testing 1.38000 and moving averages. For a potential continuation of the bullish trend, we need a break above the 38.2% Fibonacci level at 1,38300. After that, our target is 50.0% Fibonacci level at 1.39100, while our main target is the previous high at 1.39900, close to 61.8% Fibonacci level. We need negative consolidation and lowering the price to lower levels on the chart for the bearish scenario. The first support expects us at 1.37320, and then if that support breaks through, we could expect GBPUSD to visit the previous low at 1.36000.
NZDUSD chart analysis
Looking at the chart on the daily time frame, we see that the NZD, after falling to 0.68000, quickly recovered and climbed to the current 0.70900. NZDUSD is moving in one major corrective channel, and we are now very close to the top line of this channel. That place coincides with the 200-day moving average and resistance at 61.8% Fibonacci level at 0.71270. A break above would further amplify the bullish signal for further growth towards previous highs in the 0.72500-0.73000 zone, where we were last in June. We need resistance to the 61.8% level and negative consolidation for the bearish scenario that will reverse the current momentum on the bearish side. We can seek support at lower Fibonacci levels.
