EUR/JPY Downside Pressures, EUR/GBP Sideways Price Action, EUR/CHF Trading Lower.

EUR/JPY Downside pressures.

EUR/JPY is trading lower. Hourly support is given at 122.56 (18/05/2017 low). Hourly resistance can be found at 125.82 (16/05/2017 high). Major support is given at 114.90 (18/04/2017low).

In the longer term, the technical structure validates a medium-term succession of lower highs and lower lows. As a result, the resistance at 149.78 (08/12/2014 high) has likely marked the end of the rise that started in July 2012. Strong support at 94.12 (24/07/2012 low) looks nonetheless far away.

EUR/GBP Sideways price action.

EUR/GBP’s bullish momentum is fading. The technical structure had turned positive since the pair has broken resistance at 0.8530 (25/04/2017 low). Strong support can be found at 0.8304 (05/12/2017 low). Expected to see a further bullish breakout towards resistance at 0.8787 (13/03/2017 high).

In the long-term, the pair has largely recovered from recent lows in 2015. The technical structure suggests a growing upside momentum. The pair is trading above from its 200 DMA. Strong resistance can be found at 0.9500 psychological level.

EUR/CHF Trading lower.

EUR/CHF is trading lower. The pair has broken support given at 1.0866 (18/05/2017 low). We believe that the medium-term pattern suggests us to see continued bearish pressures towards key support that can be found at 1.0623 (24/06/2016 low).

In the longer term, the technical structure is mixed. Resistance can be found at 1.1200 (04/02/2015 high). Yet,the ECB’s QE programme is likely to cause persistent selling pressures on the euro, which should weigh on EUR/CHF. Supports can be found at 1.0184 (28/01/2015 low) and 1.0082 (27/01/2015 low).
