USD/NOK 1H Chart: Pair returns to senior channel

Strong upside momentum has driven the USD/NOK exchange rate since late March. The pair had appreciated 8.60% until it peaked near the 8.32 mark on Tuesday. It likewise breached the prevailing one-year channel on the same day. As a result, the US Dollar shot up to the 8.32 level and subsequently fell back to the breached senior channel.

During the past few weeks, the pair has been trading in a rising wedge pattern. It is expected that the pair remains trading in this pattern and thus edges lower within the following sessions. The pair is likely to find strong support at its bottom boundary which is reinforced by the weekly PP, the 200-hour SMA and the monthly R1 at 8.10.

Meanwhile, the pair’s overall direction within the following two weeks should be towards its ten-month high near 8.45.
