CHF/JPY Traders around a Solid Support

The pair gets trapped within a bullish flag for a while. As of writing, the pair trades around flag’s support. At the last rejection at flag’s resistance, the pair produced strong bearish momentum. However, it had a bounce right at the level, where it had a bounce earlier. Then, it made a bullish correction and found its resistance at Simple Moving Average 30. The sellers have not looked that confident to drive the price towards the South and make a breakout at flag’s support. A bearish breakout at 164.350 may attract more sellers and drive the price towards 162.000.

On the upside, if the price goes above Simple Moving Average 30, it may head towards the North. The pair may find its resistance again around 166.350.  A bullish breakout above would be an idea thing for the buyers to keep the chart on their watch list.
