Risk Sentiment

Source: Bloomberg, Markets and Products Analysis

Risk off sentiment is evident in the Eurozone. The increase of Eurozone government bond yields has been negative for risk

taking. Greek issue remains undecided.

In the short term, event risk for Eurozone stock markets is high (both to the downside & to the upside), linked with the

evolution of the Greek issue.

US stock market is consolidating and probably entering corrective mood. The stronger likelihood that the Fed will hike the

benchmark rate in September, has contributed to some profit taking in US market.

Monetary easing bias by some major Central Banks, may be supportive for risk sentiment in the future.

Reversing Up

Upside bias for GBP/USD, EUR/USD and EUR/JPY is still in place.

Major European equity indexes remain in downwards trend.

S&P 500 index is reversing downwards in the short term.

USD/JPY has broken upwards the tight range trading mode observed until end-May.

Page 7: Cross Asset Technical Vista - ALPHA BANK · Cross Asset Technical Vista June, 2015 Important Disclaimer in page 2 1 . 2 ... Daily trend indicators (MACD, ADX/DMI) suggest that the

7

S&P 500

S&P 500 index posted historic high

(intraday: 2,134.7) on May 20. The index

is currently lower versus the historic high

by almost 1.8% at 2,096 level.

Daily trend indicators (MACD, ADX/DMI)

suggest that the index is probably

entering correction phase in the short

term.

Support for the index at the area of

2,072 (9/6/15 low), at the area of 2,048

(200 days MA) and at 2,015 (Fibonacci

retracement 38.2%: 1,820.7-2,134.7).

Looking at the weekly chart, the index

appears in range trading for the 3-month

horizon. The lower bound of the weekly

Bollinger Bands is at the area of 2,030,

while the upper bound is placed at the

area of 2,150.

Despite short term correction and mid

term range trading, long term upwards

trend may have not reversed, as

suggested by monthly trend indicators

(ADX, DMI).

Page 8: Cross Asset Technical Vista - ALPHA BANK · Cross Asset Technical Vista June, 2015 Important Disclaimer in page 2 1 . 2 ... Daily trend indicators (MACD, ADX/DMI) suggest that the

8

MA), at the area of 10,370

at the area of 9,897 (Fibonacci

retracement 61.8%: 8,355-12,390 and

20% lower from the high of 10/4/15).

In case, the support area of 10,370-

10,500 holds, the index can resume

upwards trend in the long term, as

suggested by monthly data trend

indicators. Resistance at the area of

12,390 (historic high).

Page 9: Cross Asset Technical Vista - ALPHA BANK · Cross Asset Technical Vista June, 2015 Important Disclaimer in page 2 1 . 2 ... Daily trend indicators (MACD, ADX/DMI) suggest that the

19,468 (12/5/15 low).

In the mid to long term, resistance is

6,994.9).

Page 10: Cross Asset Technical Vista - ALPHA BANK · Cross Asset Technical Vista June, 2015 Important Disclaimer in page 2 1 . 2 ... Daily trend indicators (MACD, ADX/DMI) suggest that the

10

EUR/USD

EUR/USD is into range trading mode

($1.08 - $1.15) in the short term.

Daily MACD signal and daily MA’s

crossover signal (21 vs. 55 DMA)

indicate possible upwards move in

the short term.

Significant resistance for the euro at

the area of $1.1500 (50%

retracement: $1.2570 - $1.0458 and

15/5/15 high) and at $1.1720 (200

DMA).

Support is placed at the area of

$1.1000 (short term support trend

line) and at $1.0800 (27/5/15 low and

61.8% Fibonacci retracement:

$1.0458 - $1.1467).

In the medium term downwards trend

remains intact. Significant support in

medium term is found at the area of

$1.00 (76.4% Fibonacci retracement:

¥121.00 (low of 20/5/15, 22/5/15 and 55

days MA) and at ¥119.83 (19/5/15 low).

EUR/JPY is now consolidating, after

breaking the 200 days MA to the upside

on June 2. Resistance for EUR/JPY is

placed at the area of ¥140.75 (Fibonacci

retracement 61.8%: ¥149.78- ¥126.10)

and at ¥142.78 (6/1/15 high). Further

12

German 10-Year Government Bond Yield

German 10-Year government bond

yield is reacting upwards after

registering new historic low (0.05%)

on April 17. Strong medium term

downwards trend seems to be over.

Significant resistance levels are

found at the area of 1.07% (10/6/15

high & 50% retracement: 2.09% -

0.05%) and at 1.31% (61.8%

Fibonacci retracement: 2.09% -

0.05%).

In the short term some negative bias

is identified, mainly due to profit

taking.

Support is placed at the area of

0.60% (200 DMA) and at 0.474%

(1/6/15 low).

Page 13: Cross Asset Technical Vista - ALPHA BANK · Cross Asset Technical Vista June, 2015 Important Disclaimer in page 2 1 . 2 ... Daily trend indicators (MACD, ADX/DMI) suggest that the

13

Spot Gold

mode ($1,160 - $1,220). Some bias

to the downside is observed in the

short term, as 21-DMA crossed

downwards the 55-DMA in June 10.

area of $1,160/oz (5/6/15 low,

medium term support trend line &

lower 21-Day Bollinger band) and at
