USD/CNH 1H Chart: Channel Up

Source: Dukascopy Bank SA
Recently the US Dollar finished its medium term move in a large scale ascending channel against the Chinese Yuan. As a result of the just described events, a rather short term ascending channel has formed, which represents the currency exchange rate's rebound. It is most likely that the channel up pattern represents the first move in the borders of a medium term pattern. Due to that reason it is most likely going to be broken by some sort of resistance level, and it is imperative to watch weekly and monthly pivot points, which could cause a change in the direction. The hypothesis of a change in direction is supported also by the fact that the pair is already overbought, as 72% of open SWFX positions are long.
