After testing the senior channel at 13.10 two weeks ago, USD/ZAR initiated a new wave north along the bottom boundary of this pattern. This movement soon lost its strength, thus resulting in minor consolidation starting from the beginning of August.
The pair's most recent development is a breakout from a strong resistance cluster formed by the monthly PP, the 61.80% Fibonacci retracement and the 200-period (4H) SMA at 13.43. The junior channel was breached along the way.
From theoretical point of view, this breakout should be followed by a surge, at least in the short term. The nearest upside target is the 13.80 level where the monthly R1 and the most junior channel are located. In case this appreciation does not occur, traders should wait for a fall below the 200-hour SMA and the senior channel that should confirm a price decline for a couple of session.
