Regarding the candlestick patterns, we notice a hanging man in the 4-hour chart close to the August 8 high at approximately 10.57. This means the USE/SEK price might resume the downtrend.

Overall, the technical indicators suggest the primary trend is bearish, but the market can reverse from a downtrend to an uptrend.

USDSEK Forecast – 15-August-2024

The key resistance to the bear market is the July 16 high at 10.63. From a technical standpoint, the primary trend will remain bearish if the USE/SEK price is below this resistance.

However, for the downtrend to resume, we need confirmation from the sellers, and that is closing below the July 11 low at 10.37. If this scenario unfolds, the bearish trend from the 10.86 mark will likely extend to the July 12 low at 10.28. Furthermore, if the selling pressure exceeds 10.28, the next supply zone will be the March 8 low at 10.14.

Please note that the bear market should be invalidated if the price exceeds the key resistance at 10.63, backed by the 100-period simple moving average.

USDSEK Bullish Scenario – 15-August-2024

The Crab harmonic pattern in the 4-hour chart supports the bullish scenario. However, only a breakout from the 10.63 key resistance level could trigger the bull market.

If this scenario comes into play, the pullback initiated this week will likely target the July 25 high at 10.86, backed by the descending trendline. Furthermore, if the buying pressure drives the price above the July 25 high, the next bullish target could be the May 2024 all-time high at 11.05.

Notably, the July 11 low at 10.377 will support the bullish scenario if the above-mentioned bullish cross occurs.
