Yesterday, I showed the triangle on the daily chart, which it is now slightly above. I've drawn a blue line on the three-hour chart below to show that the pair could be in an upward rectangle (possible bear flag especially since momentum is negatively diverging from price). The low of this would be 1.5451. I'm not sure the triangle is dead. The rectangle is just another way of looking at the price movement. However, a sustained close above 1.5680 would be significant. Additional resistance is at 1.5710/40. After that there's little significant resistance until 1.5912.
Below 1.5451 is support at 1.5345, 1.5297 and 1.5210 (double top—1.5604 and the trough is 1.5407).
As I wrote about the Swissy, it's unusual for both the USDCHF and GBPUSD to be trending upwards together. I expect the two will diverge at some point, possibly later today.
Here's the three-hour chart.

My purpose in writing this blog is to show you how one trader, me, makes trading decisions and survives while trading Forex. One of the biggest problems I had when I first started trading was trying to apply the “rules” to actual trades. Another was the psychology—limiting losses and letting profits run. If you study my blog, you’ll see how I deal with both those issues. So my writings are not trade recommendations but rather educational in purpose. You have to decide on your own approach to trading. Remember that trading is risky.
