USD/CHF's bias is negative

Strong selling pressure permitted only a tepid rally to appear on the chart, implying that bearish momentum is not yet exhausted and may continue to drag the price down. The initial support lies at 0.9253, whereas subsequent levels are at 0.9198/73 and 0.9083. Resistances have a much lower chance of coming into play soon, but remain ready at 0.9328 and

USD/JPY rises sharply

Downtrend resistance line was unable to contain the pair, allowing it to take a course on the 200 day SMA and recent high at 79.65/73, above which there are few resistances capable of impeding growth of the price. Prior to that, however, USD/JPY will face 79.31/38, which is also unlikely to give in easily and therefore poses a threat to

AUD/USD testing 1.0421

USD/CHF stabilises at 0.9253/20

A rebound initiated by 0.9253/20 is not expected to develop into something more than a shallow short-term rally, which is anticipated to be terminated near 0.9328/62. Accordingly, sooner rather than later USD/CHF should reinstate its targets at 0.9173 and 0.9083, where some of the nearest supports may be found.

Even though the cable did not follow the path of EUR/USD and did not decline, pace of its advancement has slowed down notably ahead of 1.6300/31, which in turn guards 1.6400/70—a wide but nonetheless dense resistance area.

EUR/USD is headed towards 1.3012

After four straight days of gains EUR/USD is finally making a downward correction. Extension of the dip down to 1.3012 or 1.2935 will not put the bullish medium term outlook under risk, but will rather imply a consolidation phase. However, a breach of 1.2879/56 and 1.2806/1.2758 (200 day SMA) will be a strong bearish signal.

Today EUR/CAD experienced another bullish correction, and at the particular moment the currency pair approaches the 200-day SMA at 1.2831, which will probably reverse the prevailing movement upwards.
