Analysis of trading charts from October 24

The EURUSD currency pair managed to maintain the upward pace set in the market, as a result of which the quote continued to hold above the intermediate level of 0.9850.

The GBPUSD currency pair once again rebounded from the lower border of the resistance area 1.1410/1.1525. This led to a reverse movement, as a result of which the quote locally fell below 1.1270. Based on the price behavior, it can be assumed that the market is still on the speculators' lead, as indicated by the amount of daily volatility, as well as the recent price gap.

Economic calendar for October 25

Today, the macroeconomic calendar is empty—no statistics are expected in Europe, the United Kingdom, and the United States.

For this reason, investors and traders will pay special attention to the information flow. Statements by the Prime Minister of Great Britain regarding his plans to exit the country from a difficult economic situation may appear in the media. If such a plan is announced and supported by the public, then this will be a good incentive for the growth of the pound sterling.

Rishi Sunak will address the nation at 10:35 UTC.

In this situation, there is a distinct stagnation along the level of 0.9850, which, in the theory of technical analysis, can drag on for some time. As a result, there will be a flat, which will become a process of accumulation of trading forces. As for the amplitude limits, it is worth applying the values of 0.9800 and 0.9900 to work. The subsequent price movement will depend on the border beyond which the quote will stay in a four-hour period.

In this situation, the gap serves as a support area with respect to which stagnation was formed. For there to be an increase in the volume of short positions, which in the long term would stimulate sellers of the pound sterling, the quote needs to stay below 1.1230 in a four-hour period.

The upward scenario is currently limited by the lower boundary of the resistance area 1.1410/1.1525. Thus, if the quote held above 1.1410 in a four-hour period, then the pound could at least rise to the upper border of the 1.1525 area, with the possibility of its breakdown.

What is shown in the trading charts?

A candlestick chart view is graphical rectangles of white and black light, with sticks on top and bottom. When analyzing each candle in detail, you will see its characteristics of a relative period: the opening price, closing price, and maximum and minimum prices.

Horizontal levels are price coordinates, relative to which a stop or a price reversal may occur. These levels are called support and resistance in the market.

Circles and rectangles are highlighted examples where the price of the story unfolded. This color selection indicates horizontal lines that may put pressure on the quote in the future.

The up/down arrows are the reference points of the possible price direction in the future.
