Keep GBPJPY in sight
What happened earlier
The GBPJPY pair is trading around 149.743, experiencing pressure downwards. Traders are weighing signs of how the U.K.'s lockdown-easing steps would affect the economic recovery. The reaction of the U.K. consumer to fewer constraints over its consumption patterns will be a crucial driver over the next quarter. Nevertheless, the Bank of Japan said that a weak yen is supportive for their manufactures and would stay close to that position.
What the picture is now
The Bollinger Bands are narrowing, meaning that we should see a reduction in volatility. The RSI, which is under 50, and the Stochastic both indicate that the downwards movement may prevail.
What the possible outcomes are
- In the most likely scenario, the GBPJPY pair may challenge the first support level of 149.473.
- If the pair falls below the first support level, we can expect a further decline to the second support level of 148.655.
- Conversely, it's possible to see the pair fail to break the first support level and rebound towards the first resistance level of 150.982.
- If the pair breaks the first resistance level in our least likely scenario, we can expect to see a rise towards the second resistance level of 152.050.
Pay attention to EURJPY
What happened earlier
The EURJPY pair fell under 130.293 amid worries about the pace of COVID-19 vaccinations in Europe. The eurozone economy might lag more than previously expected because of the concerns surrounding AstraZeneca. The attention this month will turn to the quarterly earnings season in Europe.
What the picture is now
The Bollinger Bands are sharply narrowing, signifying a reduction in volatility. The RSI, which is under 50, points to a downtrend, while the Stochastic predicts a possible upwards correction.
What the possible outcomes are
- In our most likely scenario, the EURJPY pair may experience a downwards correction towards the first support level of 129.797.
- If the pair falls below the first support level, we can expect a continued downtrend towards the second support level of 129.464.
- Contrarily, the pair may initially rise towards the first resistance level of 130.293.
- If the pair manages to surpass the first resistance level, we should expect a continued surge towards the second resistance level of 130.585.
Stay aware of the BTCUSD movement
What happened earlier
The BTCUSD pair traded in a price range of 61,202.12 and 64,894.97, showing high volatility amid positive news within the cryptocurrency market. Coinbase placed shares on the stock market through a direct listing procedure, which should increase the trust in cryptocurrencies among the general public. The admission of Coinbase to the" top league " means the recognition of the cryptocurrency market as a significant part of the global economy. On 14 April, the U.S. Senate confirmed Gary Gensler's candidacy for the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Previously, he headed the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) and began his career at Goldman Sachs Group Inc. Most likely, thanks to his work, bitcoin's status in the eyes of the administrative and legislative apparatus of the United States will significantly increase, which may lead to the appearance of the first bitcoin ETF in the United States.
