Bitcoin keeps on surging, probably on fear of missing out. The digital currency has set a new all-time high at 4449 (15/08/2017 high) and hourly support lies very far at 2403 (26/07/2017 low). The road is wide open for another bullish move.

In the long-term, the digital currency has had an exponential growth. There are decent likelihood that the asset will consolidate above $1500. Long-term support is given at $1464 (04/05/2017 low).

EUR/CHF's short-term buying pressures are back on. Hourly support is now located at 1.1260 (04/08/2017 low). Expected to show continued increase.

In the longer term, the technical structure has reversed. Strong resistance at 1.1200 (04/02/2015 high) has been broken. 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).

EUR/GBP is trading around its highest levels of the year despite ongoing consolidation. Hourly resistance lies at 0.9087 (08/08/2017 high). Hourly support is given at a distance at 0.8742 (16/06/2017 low). Downside risks are nonetheless important.

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.

AUD/USD's short-term technical structure is bearish. Hourly support can be found at 0.7786 (18/07/2017 low) has been broken. Hourly resistance is given at 0.8066 (27/07/2017 high) . Expected to show continued decline.

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.

USD/CAD's short-term bullish momentum continues. The road is wide open for further increase. Hourly support is given at a distance at 1.2414 (27/07/2017 low). Expected to show continued increase.

In the longer term, the pair has broken longterm support that can be found at 1.2461 (16/03/2015 low) before bouncing back. Strong resistance is given at 1.4690 (22/01/2016 high). The pair should head further lower.

USD/CHF is pushing higher. Resistance is given at 0.9771 (15/06/2017 high). Hourly support lies at at 0.9584 (08/11/2017 low). Expected to to bounce back lower.

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/JPY has exited short-term downtrend channel after the rebound at 108.83 (17/04/2017 low). Expected to show further consolidation before another leg higher.

We favor a long-term bearish bias. Support is now given at 96.57 (10/08/2013 low). A gradual rise towards the major resistance at 135.15 (01/02/2002 high) seems absolutely unlikely. Expected to decline further support at 93.79 (13/06/2013 low).

GBP/USD is trading lower. Hourly resistance is given at 1.3267 (03/08/2017 high). Hourly support is given at 1.2933 (20/07/2017 low). Expected to show further bearish breakout of support at 1.2933.

The long-term technical pattern is even more negative since the Brexit vote has paved the way for further decline. Long-term support given at 1.0520 (01/03/85) represents a decent target. Long-term resistance is given at 1.5018 (24/06/2015) and would indicate a long-term reversal in the negative trend. Yet, it is very unlikely at the moment.

EUR/USD bullish pressures are still on despite ongoing short-term weakness. Hourly resistance is given at 1.1910 (02/08/2017 high) while hourly support can be found at 1.1689 (09/08/2017 high). Stronger support lies at 1.1613 (26/07/2017 low). Expected to show further short-term selling pressures.

In the longer term, the momentum is now turning largely positive. We favour a continued bullish bias. Key resistance holding at 1.1871 (24/08/2015 high) has been broken while strong support lies at 1.0341 (03/01/2017 low).

As cable has fallen again after brief recovery and decline gathered momentum after breaking below previous support at 1.2933, adding credence to our view that the selloff from 1.3269 top is still in progress and bearishness remains for this move to bring correction of early upmove, hence further weakness to 1.2850-60, then test of previous support at 1.2812 would be seen, however, near term oversold condition should prevent sharp fall below 1.2800 and reckon 1.2740-50 would hold on first testing, bring rebound later.

In view of this, would not chase this fall here and would be prudent to sell cable on recovery as 1.2950-55 should limit upside, above 1.2990 would defer and risk a stronger rebound to 1.3032 (Friday’s high), however, break there is needed to signal a temporary low is formed instead, bring a further subsequent gain to 1.3059 and possibly towards 1.3100 but previous support at 1.3112 (now resistance) should limit upside.

Our preferred count on the daily chart is that cable's rebound from 1.3500 (wave (A) trough) is unfolding as a wave (B) with A ended at 1.7043, followed by triangle wave B and wave C as well as wave (B) has ended at 1.7192, the subsequent selloff is the larger degree wave (C) which is still unfolding with minor wave (III) of larger degree wave 3 ended at 1.1986, hence wave (IV) correction is in progress which could either be a triangle wave (IV) of a complex formation but upside should be limited to 1.3500 and price should falter well below 1.4000, bring another decline in wave (V) of 3 for weakness to 1.1500, then 1.1200.
