Comprehensive analysis:

  • Indicator analysis - up
  • Fibonacci levels - up
  • Volumes - up
  • Candlestick analysis - down
  • Trend analysis - up
  • Bollinger lines - up
  • Monthly chart - up

An upward movement can be concluded based on a comprehensive analysis.

The overall result of the candlestick calculation based on the weekly chart: the price will most likely move in an upward trend both without the first lower shadow (Monday - up) and without the second upper shadow (Friday - up) in the weekly white candlestick.

This week, the price from the level of 1.3673 (closing of the last weekly candlestick) will increase to the target of 1.3802 - the historical resistance level (blue dotted line). Once this level is reached, the upward movement may resume to the target of 1.3844 - the pullback level of 61.8% (yellow dotted line). From this level, a downward movement is possible.

Alternatively, the price from the level of 1.3673 (closing of the last weekly candlestick) will decline to the target of 1.3662 - the pullback level of 4.6% (red dotted line). After reaching it, it can decline lower to the target of 1.3610 - the pullback level of 23.6% (red dotted line). If this level is tested, the upward movement can continue.
