USD/CAD: Approaching 1.26

USD/CHF

Heading higher.

• USD/CHF is rising, currently trading above 0.96 and heading along the 0.9605 range. The bullish pattern started from 0.9188 (16/02/2018 low) continues. The pair is contained between hourly support and resistance given at 0.9296 (05/02/2018 low) and 0.9668 (17/01/2018 high). The technical structure suggests further shortterm increase.

• In the long-term, the pair is still trading in range since 2011 despite some turmoil when the SNB unpegged the CHF. Key support lies at 0.9072 (07/05/2015 low) while resistance at 1.0344 (15/12/2016 high) is distanced. The technical structure favours a long term bullish bias since the unpeg in January 2015.

USD/CAD

Approaching 1.26.

• USD/CAD recovery phase continues following recent downturn at 1.2589, heading along the 1.2610 range. Hourly support and resistance are given at 1.2567 (13/02/2018 low) and 1.3308 (23/06/2017 high). The short-term technical structure suggests further short-term upward moves.

• In the longer term, the pair is trading between resistance point at 1.3805 (05/05/2017 high) and support at 1.2128 (18/06/2015 low). Strong resistance is given at 1.4690 (22/01/2016 high). The pair is likely to head lower. The pair is trading below its 200 DMA.

 

AUD/USD

Neutral.

• AUD/USD is stabilized at 0.7757 following recent rise. The bearish pattern started in mid- February 2018 is maintained. Hourly support and resistance are given at 0.7638 (15/12/2017 low) and 0.7810 (28/12/2017). The technical structure suggests short-term downward moves.

• In the long-term, the upward trend slows down after failing to reach key resistance at 0.8164 (14/05/2015 low). Key support stands at 0.6009 (31/10/2008 low). A break of the key resistance at 0.8164 (14/05/2015 high) is needed to invalidate our long-term bearish view.
