CHF

After breaching the key support at 1.1355, the Dollar versus Swissy declined to reach 1.1300 several times as it was pressured to the upside to retest the above mentioned level yet a close below it helps us keep our outlook to the downside on the intraday and short terms. Targets for today are at 1.1165 yet we may witness an upside correction towards 1.1410 - 1.1440 to gather bearish momentum. However, a close above 1.1355 may invalidate our expectations for a decline especially if the pair was able to breach the 1.1460 level to the upside.

The general trend is to the upside as far as 1.0570 remains intact with targets at 1.2245

Support: 1.1355, 1.1305, 1.1240, 1.1205, 1.1165
Resistance: 1.1410, 1.1460, 1.1520, 1.1585, 1.1645

Recommendation: According to our analysis, sell the pair below 1.1355 with targets at 1.1240 and 1.1165 and stop loss with four hour closing above 1.1460

CAD

The Dollar versus Loonie pair was able to complete yesterday's targets at 1.1955 before rebounding to the upside which may take the pair to levels between 1.2050 - 1.2070 in an attempt to retest the latter level and gather enough bearish momentum to support the short term trend to the downside targeting 1.1640. This decline remains as far as 1.2070 remains intact

The trading range for today is among the key support at 1.1640 and the key resistance at 1.2505
