USDCNH plummeted to a fresh four-month low of 6.9947 earlier today after the strong bearish rally on Monday. The market is in the process to cover some of the losses, approaching the 50.0% Fibonacci retracement level of the up leg from 6.8433 to 7.1944 at 7.0201 again. The momentum indicators are contradicting each other as the RSI is rebounding on the oversold region, while the MACD is declining beneath its trigger line in the near term. Also, the 20- and [..]

China will report trade numbers for February on Saturday – the first since authorities imposed lockdowns on many cities – and so the data will be seen as an important barometer to how badly business activity was impacted by the outbreak of the coronavirus. Any indication that the factory shutdowns had a far more devastating effect on the economy than is currently being predicted is likely to spark more panic selling of risk assets when markets open on Monday. January [..]
USDCNH is plunging for the ninth consecutive day after the pullback on the 7.0561 resistance, breaching the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement level of 6.9624 of the down leg from 7.1944 to 6.8433 today. The price is also registering a six-week low of 6.9159 within the Ichimoku cloud. Technical indicators are moving south with the RSI approaching its 30 oversold mark and the MACD dropping below its zero level, while the red Tenkan-sen is preparing to cross below the blue Kijun-sen line. If the market closes successfully below the 23.6% Fibonacci of 7.0561 the spotlight could turn to the one-year low of 6.8433. Below that [..]

USDCNH is retreating below the five-month descending trend line after pulling back from the 7.0126 resistance level in the preceding week. Earlier today, the pair touched the 40-day simple moving average (SMA) and erased its intraday losses so far. Technical indicators are moving sideways with the RSI holding near the neutral threshold of 50 and the MACD falling below its trigger line slightly above the zero level. If the 40- and 20-day SMAs prove easy to get through, the highlight [..]
USDCNH seems to be stronger over the last three trading days, challenging the five-month descending trendline and the upper band of the Ichimoku cloud, near the 7.0126 resistance level. The technical indicators are feeding prospects for a possible positive short-term move above the falling trendline, as the RSI holds well above 50 and is pointing up, while the MACD continues to strengthen in the bullish territory and above its red trigger line. Also, in Ichimoku indicators, the red Tenkan-sen line keeps rising above the blue Kijun-sen line. If 7.0126 proves easy [..]
The Renminbi’s recent push up from 6.8440 has returned the pair to levels seen at the end of last year. Buyers are attempting to breach an important region from 6.9790 to 6.9865 on the daily timeframe, where a bearish crossover of the 200-day simple moving average (SMA) by the 50-day one currently resides. The short-term oscillators suggest positive momentum is strengthening, backing the improving picture in the price action. The MACD is strengthening above its red trigger line in the [..]

Another use of cookies is to store your log in sessions, meaning that when you log in to the Members Area to deposit funds, a "session cookie" is set so that the website remembers that you have already logged in.
