USD/CAD Daily OutlookDaily Pivots: (S1) 1.0942; (P) 1.0960; (R1) 1.0978; More... As noted before, the recovery from 1.0857 could have completed at 1.1052 already. Intraday bias is mildly on the downside for retesting 1.0857 first. Break will extend the correction from 1.1278 and should target 50% retracement of 1.0181 to 1.1278 at 1.0730. On the upside, above 1.1052 will turn bias to the upside for extending the recovery from 1.0857. Such rise is viewed as the second leg of the correction pattern from 1.1278. We'd expect strong resistance above 61.8% retracement of 1.1278 to 1.0857 at 1.1117 to bring reversal to start the third leg. |

Trade Idea Wrap-up: USD/CHF - Sell at 0.8825As the greenback reversed intra-day brief rise to 0.8851 and broke below the Ichimoku cloud, suggesting the rebound from 0.8770 has ended there and consolidation with downside bias is seen for test of this week's low of 0.8770 but break there is needed to retain bearishness and extend the fall from last week's high of 0.8862 towards this month's low of 0.8743 Trade Idea Wrap-up: GBP/USD - Buy at 1.6840Cable's intra-day rally above 1.6900 adds credence to our view that recent upmove has resumed and this breach of previous chart resistance at 1.6879 suggests further headway to 1.6905-10 (50% projection of 1.6555-1.6842 measuring from 1.6763) and later towards 1.6940-50 (61.8% projection) would be seen but price should falter well below psychological resistance at 1.7000 due to near term overbought condition.
