USD/CHF Consolidating, USD/CAD Strong Selling Pressures, AUD/USD Pausing Before Another Leg Higher.

USD/CHF Consolidating.

USD/CHF is pushing slightly higher since the pair broke support given at 0.9553 (30/06/2017 low). Hourly resistance can be found at 0.9696 (09/06/2017 high). Strong resistance is given at 1.0107 (10/04/2017 high). Expected to to show further weakness.

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 Strong selling pressures.

USD/CAD is going lower and the pair remains in a strong bearish momentum. Hourly support is given at 1.2578 (19/07/2017 low). Hourly resistance is given at 1.2701 (17/07/2017). Expected to show continued bearish pressures.

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).

AUD/USD Pausing before another leg higher.

AUD/USD’s technical structure is bullish since early May despite some consolidation move. Hourly resistance is given at 0.7989 (19/07/2017 high). Strong support is given at 0.7786 (18/07/2017 low).

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.
