USD/CHF in a sideways mode

USD/CHF started the week on a strong note but then gave back all the gains and is currently holding onto 0.9875 - 0.99 support area. A break below it would probably mean another shot at 0.98 - 0.985. Watch out for SNB Jordan's speech tomorrow. I wonder what would happen if he somehow forgets to mention that the franc is "still overvalued".

Aussie breaks below 38.2% retracement

AUD/USD fell 50 pips overnight, after the release of weaker than expected Wage Price Index. 38.2% retracement of the 2016 - 2017 upswing now looks properly broken. 0.75 - 0.755 area is the next major support. It includes 2016 - 2017 trendline, the big figure, and is backed by 50.0% retracement.

Kiwi dollar testing 2016/2017 support area

NZD/USD slipped 50 pips overnight on no particular news. Higher timeframe momentum resumed, sending the pair down to test 2016/2017 support in 0.68 - 0.685 area. If the area gives way, we could see some stop-loss selling but I'd expect dip buyers to start emerging near 0.675.
