CHF lost ground last week but pared most of week losses, PPI m/m 0.0% as expected, next week focus will be on Trade Balance, SNB Monetary Policy Assessment and Libor Rate.

Good bulls try above 0.7400 but pair should break above 0.7500 to talk about any bullish scenario.

CAD performed worst last week, BOC decision and statement was not encouraging as BOC still suspected that inflation still temporary and still worry about US measures against Canada, CPI data also was not helpful and ensured BOC thought about inflation, lack of significant data next week but BOC Gov Boloz will speak on Monday, in other hand,

khalidamassi avatar

CHF performed worst last week, The Producer and Import Price Index fell in March 2018 by 0.2% compared with the previous month, next week, SNB Chairman Jordan will speak  about monetary policy and banking regulation at the SNB's General Meeting of Shareholders, in Bern.

khalidamassi avatar

As expected, pair topped around 0.7700, there is clear sign of reversal till now, pair to correct lower next week.

khalidamassi avatar

CAD performed worst last week Vs majors, no significant data was last week but Wholesale Sales was -0.8% worse than expected at +0.3%, Next week will be important for CAD as we wait GDP m/m and then Trade Balance data, in other hand, CHF continued falling last week VS majors, no significant data was last week but Trade Balance came at +1.77B VS 3.23B, next week KOF Economic Barometer will be released.

khalidamassi avatar

Strong push up after hitting 0.7200, now holds near 0.7400, still seen positive in the near time.

khalidamassi avatar

CAD performed worst VS majors, with no significant data last week but manufacturing sales fell -1.0% VS -0.8% expected, CAD still under pressure due to expected trade wars from US, next week CPI and retails sales data will be the most important, in other hand, CHF performed mixed VS majors as SNB still set labor rate at -0.75% and still reluctant to do any move to halt any CHF strength, next week trade balance data will be the one thing to watch for CHF.

khalidamassi avatar

failed again around 0.7400, closed day and week around low at 0.7250, still seen non direction around 0.7200.

khalidamassi avatar

Pair still in daily range between 0.7220 and 0.7420, still not affected by strong direction.

khalidamassi avatar

Closed far from expected target, hope last hours will help.

Still consolidate below 0.7500 but move in narrow pace, clear break above 0.7500 needed to confirm any bullish move.

khalidamassi avatar

CAD did not perform well as still affected by last week employment data and lower oil prices and NATFA issue still to be driver for CAD movement, in other hand, CHF performed well last week as demand for safe haven came after crisis in Stock market, CHF still expected to surge as losses continue in stock markets.

khalidamassi avatar

As pair still below 0.7500 for second week, this considered failure for expected bullish scenario, sellers to care about 0.7500 level...

khalidamassi avatar

CAD hit last week by most majors as Core retail sales were so bad as it came at -1.8% VS 0.1% expected, but after Strong CPI date at 0.7% VS 0.4% expected, pair recovered most of the week losses, in other hand, CHF still moving in narrow range but seemed topped in some pairs, no significant data last week or next week but any selling in stock market will intensify CHF buying as safe haven.

khalidamassi avatar

Pair still losing ground but seemed bottomed and if 0.7350 hold for next week then we can consider it as buying opportunity.

CAD dollar still helped strongly with strong gains of oil, CAD but expected US exit from NATFA agreement put strong pressure on CAD and this still expected to weight in the near future, In other hand, CHF still performing well but not much as GBP and euro and this due to aggressive SNB policy which still so accommodative and still no change expected for SNB policy in near time,

khalidamassi avatar

exactly as the last week range between 0.7735 and 0.7900 with no clear direction.

khalidamassi avatar

CAD dollar got a boost from BOC rate hike and still helped with oil gains but worries about NATFA agreement put strong pressure on CAD and this still expected to weight in the near future, In other hand, CHF moved in narrow range against most pairs as it tries to hold last week strength, CHF still non game player as SNB still play all cards to weaken it . 

khalidamassi avatar

Pair closed round bottom at 0.7700, still expected to move around this price or to go down then retrace to 0.7700 as expected in scnarion chart.

khalidamassi avatar

Pair very near to dailt support around 0.7550 so it should hit 0.7700 again before hitting next target.

Pair reached 0.7820 before falling again towrards 0.7700, 0.7625 still expected to play major rule in pair direction.

khalidamassi avatar

CAD still vulnerable due to lower oil prices and lower GDP in last quarter but BOC still optimistic but this not persuade CAD investors so much, In other hand,CHF still highly overvalued due to Jordan SNB who still see CHF so high despite strong losses of last months and this put pressure on CHF again.

khalidamassi avatar

Failed at 0.7800 and closed the week at bottom around 0.7680 with mild bearish sentiment.

khalidamassi avatar

CAD dollar was helped at week beginning with strong CPI and retails sales numbers but then lagged by lower GDP data and with dovish speech by BOC Governor, In other hand, CHF still under pressure as SNB still see Frank still so high despite least weakening,  KOF Economic Barometer was best in years but not help as the overall sentiment is not with CHF.

khalidamassi avatar

0.7600-0.7630 confirmed as daily support and pair now holds around 0.7800, may consolidate between 0.7600 and 0.7800 for the rest of the month.
