USD/CNH Technical Analysis: Triangle resistance is capping gains despite renewed trade concerns

  • The US President Trump on Monday said that he would slap tariffs on all remaining Chinese imports if negotiations with Xi-Jinping fail to produce a US-China trade deal. Still, the USD/CNH is struggling to move past the upper edge of the symmetrical triangle resistance.
  • The bullish breakout, however, could happen today if Fed’s Powell boosts bets of an extended Fed tightening cycle. The central bank chief is scheduled to speak today at 17:00 GMT. A bull breakout, if confirmed, would open the doors for a test of major psychological resistance of 7.00.
  • The lower end of the symmetrical triangle could be put to test if Powell puts more emphasis on the rising risks to the US economy and the US third-quarter GDP is revised lower.
