Short and Medium Term
-
Since the last look at EUR/CHF the market did indeed complete an (a) wave and then a (b) wave, and is likely now on a (c) wave.
- Note the RSI breaking above 60, invaliding bearish momentum, reflecting possible sideways action.
- If there is wave equality, we can have 2 targets, 1.3130 as the conservative and 1.3280 as a more aggressive one.
-
Looking at the daily chart, we also see a pivot just above 1.30, and channel resistance at 1.32. A break above 1.33, establishes the range between 1.24 and 1.32 as a bottom and we can target the 1.3850 area.
-
The bullish scenario should be confirmed by a break in the RSI above 70 for the daily chart.
