USD/CHF
Weakening.
-
USD/CHF is decreasing after reaching 1.0033 high, maintained slightly above the pair and heading along 0.9990. Hourly support and resistance given at 0.9755 (10/01/2018 low) and 1.0091 (09/05/2017 high) are maintained. The technical structure suggests short-term sideways trading moves.
-
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.

Bouncing off.

AUD/USD bounce continues, trading above 0.75 and heading along the 0.7530 range. Hourly support and resistance remain at 0.7412 (09/05/2018 low) and 0.7813 (19/04/2018 high). The technical structure suggests short-term increase.
-
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.
