Daily analysis of major pairs for December 25, 2017

The USD/CHF did not make any significant movement last week, neither is it expected to make any significant movement this week (because volatility would thin out). Price is thus expected to oscillate between the resistance level at 0.9950 and support level at 0.9800 within the next several trading days. However, a breakout will occur early January.

EUR/USD: This pair went upwards last week, from the support line at 1.1750, towards the resistance line at 1.1900. That was a movement of about 150 pips. However, price began to retrace downwards from Thursday, but it has not gone low enough to jeopardize the current bullish bias.
