EUR/USD, GBP/USD, and USD/CHF Forecasts – US Dollar Dominates on Rate Yields

EUR/USD Technical Analysis

The euro has rallied slightly in the early part of the trading session on Wednesday, but as you can see, the market is struggling to continue to go to the upside. Ultimately, this is a market that is trying to hang around the 1.14 level and make a bigger decision as to where we are going next.

With that being the case, I think this is a market that anytime it rallies, there will be a certain amount of people willing to sell it. Rising interest rates in America continue to put bearish pressure on this pair. The 1.14 level is a support area. Some traders could even see this as a bearish flag with the measure of the pole somewhere just around the 1.12 level.

GBP/USD Technical Analysis

The British pound initially rallied, but it looks like the sellers are starting to come back in as well with those higher rates. That does make a certain amount of sense as the interest rate differential shrinks between London and DC. With so many concerns around the world, the US dollar is considered to be a safety currency most of the time. Maybe that is what is going on, but we are right in the middle of a larger consolidation area, and that is something worth paying attention to as well.

USD/CHF Technical Analysis

The US dollar has done very little against the Swiss franc during the trading session on Wednesday. The 0.8150 level continues to be an area that is attracting a certain amount of attention as potential resistance. A break above there would be a bullish sign; it would be a break of a swing high in an area that goes back quite some time. Short-term pullbacks continue to attract buyers. The interest rate differential most decidedly favors America here, so carry traders like buying this as well.
