TECHS: USDCNH Clears A Key Resistance

CNH

USDCNH has traded higher this week and confirmed a resumption of the bull trend that started mid-January.

  • Technical trend signals highlight an uptrend for example, moving average studies are in a bull-mode position.
  • Note too that this week’s breach of key resistance at 6.9971, the Mar 8 high, represents an important bullish short and medium-term price development.
  • The pair is approaching two important resistance points (see chart):
    • The neckline of a former head and shoulders reversal pattern. The line intersects at 7.0655.
    • If this level is breached, it would signal scope for a climb further out towards the top of a bull channel that is drawn from the Feb 2 low. The channel top intersects at 7.1313 today.
  • Initial support lies at 6.9971 and 6.9425, the 20-day EMA.
