USD/CAD Daily Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 1.3131; (P) 1.3156; (R1) 1.3197;

Intraday bias in USD/CAD remains neutral first. The corrective fall from 1.3385 is still mildly in favor to continue lower. Below 1.3114 will target 1.3063 support and then 100% projection of 1.3385 to 1.3063 from 1.3289 at 1.2967. But we’d expect strong support from rising channel line (now at 1.2897) to contain downside and bring rebound. Larger rally from 1.2061 is expected to resume later.


In the bigger picture, as long as channel support (now at 1.2897) holds, we’re holding to the bullish view. That is, fall from 1.4689 (2015 high) has completed at 1.2061, ahead of 50% retracement of 0.9406 (2011 low) to 1.4689 (2015 high) at 1.2048. Further rally should be seen for 61.8% retracement of 1.4689 to 1.2061 at 1.3685 and above. However, sustained break of the channel support will argue that rise from 1.2061 has completed and will bring deeper fall to 1.2526 support to confirm.

EUR/CHF Daily Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 1.1593; (P) 1.1612; (R1) 1.1629;

With 1.1653 minor resistance intact, further decline is expected in EUR/CHF for 1.1478 support. We’re holding on to the view that corrective rebound from 1.1366 has completed with three waves up to 1.1713 already. Break of 1.1478 will resume the whole decline from 1.2004 through 1.1366 low. On the upside, above 1.1653 minor resistance will bring another rise. But in that case, we’d expect strong resistance from 61.8% retracement of 1.2004 to 1.1366 at 1.1760 to bring near term reversal.


In the bigger picture, 1.2004 is seen as a medium term top with bearish divergence condition in daily and weekly MACD. 1.2000 is also an important resistance level. Hence, the corrective pattern from 1.2004 is expected to extend for a while before completion. We’re not anticipating a break of 1.2004 in near term. Another decline cannot be ruled out yet. But in that case, strong support should be seen at 1.1198 (2016 high), 61.8% retracement of 1.0629 to 1.2004 at 1.1154 to contain downside.
