<p>Fig 2: CHF/JPY minor short-term trend as of 27 Jun 2023 (Source: TradingView, click to enlarge chart)</p>
<p>The price actions of CHF/JPY have continued to evolve within a minor ascending channel in place since the 13 June 2023 low of 153.37 and traded above the upward-sloping 5-day moving average (see 1-hour chart).</p>
<p>The hourly RSI has just staged a bullish breakout which indicates that short-term momentum remains positive.</p>
<p>Watch the 159.90 key short-term pivotal support with the next resistances coming in at 162.00 (psychological level) and 163.20 (the intersection between the upper boundaries of both the medium-term and minor ascending channels).</p>
<p>However, a break below 159.90 negates the bullish tone to expose the next minor supports at 158.70 and 157.20.</p>
