EUR/CHF Moving Sideways, EUR/JPY Stabilizing, EUR/GBP Grinding Lower.

EUR/CHF Moving sideways.

EUR/CHF has paused near the key support at 1.0684 (see also the falling channel). However, the persistent succession of lower highs favours a bearish bias. Hourly resistances can be found at 1.0691 (07/04/2017 high). The medium-term pattern suggests us to see continued bearish pressures towards key support that can be found at 1.0623 (24/06/2016 low). Expected to see further decline.

In the longer term, the technical structure is mixed. Resistance can be found at 1.1200 (04/02/2015 high). Yet,the ECB’s QE programme is likely to cause persistent selling pressures on the euro, which should weigh on EUR/CHF. Supports can be found at 1.0184 (28/01/2015 low) and 1.0082 (27/01/2015 low).

EUR/JPY Stabilizing.

EUR/JPY recovery bounce off support was short lived and is now challenging the trendline support at 115.95. Next support is given at 113.73 (09/11/2016 low). Resistance stands at 117.43 then 122.88 (13/03/0217 high).

In the longer term, the technical structure validates a medium-term succession of lower highs and lower lows. As a result, the resistance at 149.78 (08/12/2014 high) has likely marked the end of the rise that started in July 2012. Strong support at 94.12 (24/07/2012 low) looks nonetheless far away.

EUR/GBP Grinding lower.

EUR/GBP has broken the key supports area between 0.8787 (13/03/2017) high and 0.8484 (31/03/2017 low). The short-term technical structure is negative as long as the hourly resistance at 0.8596 holds. Another resistance can be found at 0.8645. An hourly support lies at 0.8450 (03/01/2017 low). Expected to show continued weakness.

In the long-term, the pair has largely recovered from recent lows in 2015. The technical structure suggests a growing upside momentum. The pair is trading above from its 200 DMA. Strong resistance can be found at 0.9500 psychological level.
