BTC/USD - Daily Analysis

The BTC/USD bearish bias continues to dominate the market as it has crossed below 50 periods EMA at the 7300 levels. The leading crypto pair has also violated the double bottom support level of 7210 to trade at 7130. The BTC/USD price is slowly fading, and it lately cracked the $7,200 support zone against the U.S. dollar.

At 13:15 GMT, the Spanish Services PMI for November showed a growth to 53.2 from expected 51.9 and supported Euro. At 13:45 GMT, the Italian Services PMI showed a decline to 50.4 from expected 51.2 and weighed on Euro. At 13:50 GMT, the French Services PMI also weighed on Euro when it declined to 52.2 from expected 52.9. 

However, the German Final Services PMI at 13:55 GMT showed a growth to 51.7 from expected 51.3 and supported Euro. The overall Final Services PMI for the whole Eurozone also came in favor of Euro when it increased to 51.9 from the expectations of 51.5.

Positive data from Eurozone supported single currency – Euro and showed a growth in the Service Sector of the economy in the month of November, which indicated that the non-manufacturing sector of the European Union was growing. 

On the other hand, at 18:15 GMT, the long-awaited ADP Non-Farm Employment change from the United States was released and came in as 67K against the expectations of 137K and weighed on USD. At 20:00 GMT, the ISM Non-Manufacturing PMI of the United States also dropped to 53.9 from the expectations of 54.5 and weighed on USD.

Weaker than expected private-sector jobs in the United States and declined Non-manufacturing PMI added inn the upward trend of EUR/USD on Wednesday and helped it to rise to its highest level since 5 November.

But in the late session, it started to move in a downward trend after the raised hopes on the trade deal when Bloomberg reported that China & the US were negotiating the amount of tariff which would be rolled back in the phase-one deal.

The news was highly marketed and gave its impact in favor of greenback, which found some support after dropping due to the release of poor macroeconomic data on Wednesday. Riskier assets gained traction in the market after this news as safe-haven demand decreased amid increased trade optimism.

EUR/USD – Daily Forecast

The EUR/USD showed a bullish fakeout on the 4-hour chart when it crossed over the 1.1090 resistance level. But the gains were limited as the pair reversed to trade below 1.1090 resistance right in the next candle. For now, this level is extending strong resistance, and below this, we can expect a slight retracement in the EUR/USD until 1.1060 and 1.1038. Conversely, the bullish breakout can lead EUR/USD prices towards 1.1120.

The stronger Pound and weaker USD helped GBP/USD pair to move in an upward direction that day. Adding in the Bullish trend was the results from polls suggesting victory of PM Boris Johnson in upcoming British Elections on 12 December. YouGov MRP Poll, which was considered as a highly accurate predictor, suggested that Tories would hold the maximum number of seats in the UK Parliament in the next elections.

On the back of the Conservative party’s expectations to win the election and leave the UK from the European Union by the end of January 2020, Pound remained in continuous demand for four previous days.
