Weekly price range compression for $EURCHF and $USDCAD have reached significant levels and are likely to rebound.

Breakout confirmation utilizing Andersen Bands and other tactical trading tools are suggested for these actionable trades. 

Volatility generally remains considerably weak in the currency market. This can be seen in the image included with this post. The image shows a one year volatility trend chart for each pair/cross. The directional arrow indicates the one week change in volatility.

The remaining columns show the relative rank in percentage of where the current 5 week, 10 week, 30 week, and 120 week measurements of volatility are compared to the past. A reading of zero means volatility is at the bottom of the range. Conversely, a reading of 100 would be at the top.

There has been a lot of interest about our momentum statistics, what they mean, and how to use them. The normalized statistically-based momentum we calculate has a tendency to persist after a change in direction. We monitor and publish two time frames for momentum on the daily dashboard reports. The short-term statistic typically means 2-7 days and 2-7 weeks for long-term momentum. Knowing when momentum changes direction or is rapidly changing rank can give you a leading edge in the markets.

Going into Friday, we extracted and shared the top and bottom 5 currency pairs/crosses. The image with this post illustrates the results of such "persistence". Additionally, of the 28 primary currency pairs/crosses we monitor, all of the top and bottom ranked performers matched their respective short-term momentum direction on the dashboard report.
