4/16/2009 – USD/CHF – Price action on USD/CHF, as shown on the
displayed 4-hour chart, has formed a well-defined parallel uptrend
channel that has been in place since late March. Throughout the life of
this gradually up-sloped channel, price has made clear, tradable breaks
of intra-channel trendlines. Currently, price on this pair is right
around just such a juncture, with an intra-channel downtrend resistance
line to the upside and an intra-channel uptrend support line to the
downside. An upside break would be a more significant technical event,
as the channel is bullish and the natural target at this point is the
top of the channel. Therefore, any substantial upside break of the
intra-channel downtrend resistance line should target dynamic
resistance around the upper border of the parallel uptrend channel. The
current intra-channel uptrend line should act as support for the pair,
a breakdown of which should target the bottom border of the parallel
channel once again.
