The pair is fluctuating heavily within sideway range, which is limited between 23.6% and 61.8% Fibonacci levels of the CD leg of the bullish harmonic Bat pattern, in addition, this sideway range is above point D of the Bat pattern and also above point (3) of the Three Drivers pattern. We still expect positivity due to the harmonic patterns’ effect; however, Stochastic is negative along with ADX indicator. Therefore, 4-hour closing above 1.4255 is required to confirm the bullishness, while stability with 4-hour closing below 1.4120 should activate the downside movement.
The trading range for today is among the major support at 1.3910 and the major resistance at 1.4490
The short-term trend is to the upside with steady daily closing above 1.2795 targeting 1.5135.

The pair succeeded in retesting the previous broken pivotal support-turned into resistance- at 1.6250 zones, where it started to decline once more as seen on the provided daily graph. We classify the internal upside moves as normal correction behaviors within C wave of the suggested Elliott count. The negativity appearing on Vortex and SMA 50 indicators encourages us to keep our bearish predictions over intraday basis, mainly targeting the psychological level of 1.6000 and a break of which may accelerate the wave.
The trading range for today is among key support at 1.5880 and key resistance at 1.6550.
The general trend over short term basis is to the downside, targeting 1.4225 as far as areas of 1.6875 areas remain intact.

Japanese Yen (JPY)
Morning Report

With a long tail for yesterday's candlestick, the pair achieved some kind of rebound from the initial support areas of 76.25-76.30 as seen on the provided graph. At the same time, the contrarian between momentum indicator-RSI 14- and trend indicator-AROON- forces us to stay aside over intraday basis until an actionable set up presents itself. Carefully note that, a break of 77.45 zones may fix the sign appearing on AROON, while RSI is preparing for an upside move. Conversely, breaching the significant low of 76.25 will damage the chances of achieving upside recovery.
The trading range for today is among key support at 74.25 and key resistance now at 79.55.
The general trend over short term basis is to the upside, targeting 87.45 as far as areas of 76.40 remain intact.

Swiss Franc (CHF)

The sharp incline seen supported the pair to breach the main resistance, where this signal is positive especially after the pair consolidated above SMA 20 and 50. But, Stochastic is currently biased to the downside and the pair is unable to breach 50% Fibonacci retracement at 0.7670 as shown above, which could bring bearish correction to retest the broken resistance before rebounding again to the upside, where the bullishness became highly possible on short term and medium term basis.
The trading range for today is among the major support at 0.7350 and the major resistance at 0.8020.
The short-term trend is to the upside with steady weekly closing above 0.6980 targeting 0.8815.
