Technical Analysis

Pair: EURUSD
Resistance: 1.1465, 1.1535, 1.1650
Support:  1.1300, 1.1214, 1.1200
Bias: Bullish. EUR found strength last week after the dovish FOMC minutes. At this point EUR is being driven by risk aversion. Worries about slower growth in China and the stock market crashing have sent ripples through the world markets and impacted other equity markets as well. Euro is behaving as a safe haven currency and has seen a big increase. We may see some more upside in Euro. However, Greece PM Alexis Tsipiras resigning and Greece elections in September as well as potential profit taking could be causes for concerns for the Euro later in the week.

Pair: GBPUSD
Resistance:  1.5800, 1.5920, 1.600
Support: 1.5600, 1.5580, 1.5425, 1.5335
Bias: Bullish. GBP has not been keeping pace with Euro lately and is still trading in the range. If it holds above the range(1.5700), we are likely to see more upside in the GBP.
