The NZD/USD pair shot straight up to the 0.81 level on Tuesday, and is starting to look supportive at this area. The pair has done well, but until we break the 0.82 level – thus making a higher high – we will hold on this pair. We don't like selling, so we are waiting to get a buy signal.

GBP/CHF Technical Analysis For June 29, 2011

By ForexMansion.com

 
The GBP/CHF formed a hammer at the 1.33 level on Tuesday, as traders pushed the pair lower, but were held towards the end of the day. Although a bullish sign, one should keep in mind this pair is decidedly bearish, and the Monday bar was a shooting star. This looks like it could be more confusion than bullishness. We don't buy this pair, and simply wait to sell rallies.

The USD/CHF fell on Tuesday, breaking the 0.83 level, but managed to form a hammer on Tuesday. This shows that there is a possible bounce coming in this market. The pair isn't one we would buy, but would rather wait for a nice bounce to sell. The 0.85 area would be the first massive resistance area. If we break the bottom of the Tuesday candle – that would be very, very bearish as well.
