EURO
The pair managed to touch the support line for the main descending channel, appearing through the image above, which continues its stance against continuous attempts of descending. We expect a bullish correction for this week; where its main target is around 1.3800. Keep in mind that the breach of 1.3505 followed by 1.3485 will open the door up to resume the bearish direction below the need for an expected bullish correction.
The trading range for today is among the key support at 1.3290 and the key resistance at 1.3900.
The general trend is to the upside as far as 1.3485 remains intact with targets at 1.6000.

GBP
The pair ihas been traded within a sideway range last week between the recorded bottom at 1.5555 and 23.6% Fibonacci correction at 1.5765. We still hold onto our expectations for last week, with a possibility of a bullish correction occurring this week that first requires the breach of 1.5765 to head towards 1.5900 then 1.6005. It is also vital that the daily closing remain below 1.5555 to maintain chances of achieving this bullish correction. On the other hand, the breach of the final level will pave the way for a continuous bearish direction that targets levels around 1.5200 initially.
The trading range for today is among the key support at 1.5200 and the key resistance at 1.6005.
The general trend is to the upside as far as 1.4840 remains intact with targets at 1.7200.

CHF
The pair continues its trading within the ascending short term channel that organizes the journey of achieving the previously breached bullish technical pattern targets, appearing through the image above. We expect some minor bearish correction that will build its base on 1.0675 then achieving the overall bullish direction; targeting mainly 1.1000 then 1.1100. The breach of 1.0675 will weaken chances of the expected bullish direction for this week.

This pattern's formation makes us expect a bullish trend for this week; targeting the neckline at 1.0785 then 1.0960.
