  • CZKJPY: momentum on the pair has halted in the past three days following the little rally in the end of April; CZKJPY is currently testing its 5.10 resistance, a break above that level would open the door for a move up to 5.20 (Sep 2018 highs). On the downside, short term support stands at the psychological 5 level, followed by 4.92 (100D SMA).
  • CZKPLN has been retracing slightly lower in the past few days after testing a local high of 0.1773; ST supports on the pair stand at 0.1756 (50D SMA), followed by 0.1744 (100D SMA). On the topside, 0.1791 remains the key resistance (March 30 high).
  • CZKHUF ticked higher today and currently trades slightly below the 14 level; key level to watch on the topside stands at 14.15, which was reached on March 22 and also represents the pair's all-time high. On the downside, first support to watch stands at 13.85 (100D SMA), followed by 3.70 (the low of the LT upward trending channel).
  • CZKRUB: the pair has been retracing slightly higher in the past few days after rejecting its 3.48 support, which corresponds to the 38.2% Fibo retracement of the 3.30 – 3.59 range. Key resistance to watch on the topside stands at 3.60, which represents the pair's all time high; on the downside, first resistance to watch after 3.48 stands at 3.45 (50D SMA, 100D SMA and 50% Fibo).

The pair is currently testing its 100D SMA at 29.77; a break above that level would open the door for a move up to 30.06 (38.2% Fibo). (GBPCZK chart below).
