For a continued move higher we must now see the ASX hold above 6544. Should this occur, we will look for a test of 6635. If momentum to the upside continues we could see a retest of 6682, and if momentum is very strong we cannot rule out rule out a move to 6804.

If the ASX cannot hold above 6544, we will look for a move back down to 6435. A strong break and close below this level however could see the ASX retest 6350 before a pause; and if downside momentum is very strong, we could see a move down to 6276.

 

EUROPE

DAX – 11959 (+422 or +3.66%)

The DAX posted a very strong week on the back of a weakening Euro. Can this market continue to rally this week?

For a continued move to the upside we must see the DAX close above 12198. Should this occur, we will look for a move into 12384 before a pause. If momentum is very strong we cannot rule out a blow off move to 12566 and 12750.

If the DAX fails to close above 12198, we will look for a move back down to 11875. Any break below this level however could see the DAX sell-off sharply into 11755 this week; and if downside momentum is very strong we cannot rule out a move down to 11519.

If the Pound cannot close above 1.2195, we are likely to see a quick move down into 1.2000. A break below this level could see a fast move down to 1.1896, and if momentum is strong to the downside we could see a fast move down into 1.1800.

 

 

USD/JPY – 106.25 (+85 or +0.81%)

The $/YEN is also at an interesting area with a real battle between bulls and bears at the moment..

For a move to the upside we must now see this market hold above 105.50, on its way to retesting 106.52 before a pause. A strong break and close above this level could then see the $/YEN rally into 107.25, and if momentum is very strong we could see moves to 107.75 and 108.31.

If we cannot hold above 105.50, we could see a fast move lower into 104.97. A break below this level may result in a very sharp move down to 103.99. Any further breaks to the downside could see the $/YEN end up at 103.21by the week’s end.

If Gold cannot close above 1526, we will look for a move back down into 1505. A strong break and close below this level could send this market lower into 1480, and if momentum is strong to the downside we cannot rule out a move lower into 1470.
