The steep surge CHF/JPY extended on the hourly chart shows little sustainability due to the extreme nature of the slope as well as the diminishing highs that have led to a rising wedge formation.

The yellow metal has been trading in a descending channel pattern since the end of February.

Although the Australian Dollar is in a descending channel pattern against the US Dollar, the currency rate has recently rebounded and set a course higher.

From a technical perspective the AUD/USD
It appears that EUR/SEK has entered a ranging phase on the daily chart and created a channel down pattern to help it reach the bottom bound of the range around 9.4189.

EUR/PLN cut the ranging market in an ascending triangle pattern which might bring the pair away from half-year lows of 4.2822 and could be possibly a start to a large-scale bullish reversal.

A senior downtrend that GBP/JPY has been interacting with for at least a year already led it south once again, confirming the trend-line once again. The pair has just entered a falling wedge pattern to build up some bullish potential and possibly launch another attack on the senior line.

After tapping at all-time highs of 0.9829 early November 2016, NZD/CAD gave in to bearish pressures and slipped 5%, just to once again prove that the unexplored area is not out of reach, and that the pair might visit the 0.98 mark once again.
