USD/CHF

Bearish pressures arise.

  • USD/CHF is pushing lower. Hourly resistance given at 0.9727 (09/06/2017 high) has been broken. Strong resistance is given at 1.0107 (10/04/2017 high). Expected to show continued short-term bullish pressures.

  • In the long-term, the pair is still trading in range since 2011 despite some turmoil when the SNB unpegged the CHF. Key support can be found 0.8986 (30/01/2015 low). The technical structure favours nonetheless a long term bullish bias since the unpeg in January 2015.

USD/CAD

Trading sideways.

  • USD/CAD has strongly declined and is now consolidating. Hourly support lies at 1.3165 (14/06/2017 high). Expected to show continued weakness towards support given at 1.3010 (16/02/2017 low)

  • In the longer term, the pair lies in a bullish channel since a year. Strong resistance is given at 1.4690 (22/01/2016 high). Long-term support can be found at 1.2461 (16/03/2015 low).

USDCAD

 

AUD/USD

Profit-taking.

  • AUD/USD is pushing higher since the pair has failed to reach hourly support given at 0.7329 (09/05/2017 low). The technical structure is clearly positive and the pair should head towards resistance at 0.7750 (21/03/2017 high).

  • In the long-term, we are waiting for further signs that the current downtrend is ending. Key supports stand at 0.6009 (31/10/2008 low) . A break of the key resistance at 0.8295 (15/01/2015 high) is needed to invalidate our long-term bearish view.
