For Stop Loss we can use the support level 0.9945. Also it is necessary to consider the data concerning the CAD BOC Business Outlook Survey that can affect the rate of the pair

USD/CHF Technical Analysis and Trading recommendations for April 9, 2012
http://forex-images.instaforex.com/u...9/usdchf_4.gif
General picture:
On April 9 the USD/CHF pair continues the ascending movement due to the prolonged correction. Bollinger Bands are restricting though there is a still possibility of ascending movement. The current signal for Buy-deals is confirmed and strong as Chinkou Span is located above the price chart and the price has overcome the Ichimoku Cloud. Thus, the target for the uprising movement is seen at the first resistance level 0.9260. In case this level has been passed through, the new target for bullish trading – the second resistance level 0.9352. The ascending movement remains relevant as long as the price is located above the Kijun-Sen (0.9110). While bullish trading below this line it is recommended to place Stop Loss. If the price goes below this line, the signal for Buy-deals will weaken and the further elaboration of the ascending movement will be questioned. Chinkou Span is located above the price chart confirming the current signal for Sell-deals and indicating the bullish mood on the USD/CHF market. Bollinger Bands defines the current uprising movement, lines are restricting and directed upwards. That is the reason why it is better to consider long positions. MACD has reversed to downside indicating the current correction. Therefore the indicator prevents from opening new buyers orders. In case MACD reverse to upwards, long positions will be relevant again.
Trading recommendations:
On the USD/CHF market it is recommended to consider long positions with first target seen at the 0.9260 level. If the price passes this level through, the level 0.9352 will be considered as target for Buy-deals. Stop Loss is to be placed below 0.9110 levels; in case this line goes upwards, Stop Loss can be placed after it. New long positions are recommended only after the reversal of the MACD to upwards. With 50-60 pips of profit Stop Loss can be placed into the zero area. Take Profits can be placed a bit lower than target levels (10-15 pips approximately).
Apart from the technical picture it is necessary to consider the fundamental data and the time of its release.
Explanations to the picture:
Ichimoku Indicator:
Tenkan-Sen – red line
Kijun-Sen – blue line
Senkou Span A – light brown dotted line
Senkou Span B – light blue dotted line

http://forex-images.instaforex.com/u...M_(90_min).png
USD/CAD Elliott Wave
The USD/CAD pair has finished the developing corrective (C) wave (coloured green) yesterday. During the European session we could observe the strong bullish mood and price testing 1.0000 level. Therefore during the New York session the USD/CAD pair continue pushing in a upward move and price finally reach new daily high at the end of the session at the 1.0043 level. Today on the beginning of the Asian session this major pair pushed to 1.0050 level. We can consider this move as finish of the 5 wave (coloured pink) of the bigger C wave (coloured blue). The USD/CAD did not manage to hold this level and we could observe price at 1.0015 level. Presently we can observe the beginning of the 1 wave (coloured blue). We have two possible scenarios for today. Firstly, if price continues pushing in a bearish mood, we could see next potential target at 0.9960 level. For stop loss we can use 1.0050 invalidation point. Second scenario: wave C is not over yet and if the price returns to 1.0050 level we could expect end of wave C at 1.0100 level, Stop loss for this scenario can be at 1.0020 support level. Also it is necessary to consider the data concerning the CAD Housing Starts and U.S Import Prices m/m, Crude Oil Inventories, Beige Book, Federal Budget Balance, FOMC Member Yellen Speaks that can affect the rate of the pair
Support and Resistance levels
(S3) 0.9918 (S2) 0.9954 (S1) 0.9976 (PP) 1.0012 (R1) 1.0048 (R2) 1.0070 (R3) 1.0106
Trading Forecast
Proceeding from Elliott Wave Rules, today the trend is expected to begin the downward movement. That is why Short positions at level 1.0010 with Stop Loss at 1.0050 and Take Profit at 0.9960 are recommended.

http://forex-images.instaforex.com/u...M_(1_hour).png
USD/CAD Elliott Wave
The USD/CAD pair was trading within the upward move yesterday. During the European session we co�ld observe a descending move towards 0.9972 (200 EMA Support). USD/CAD did not manage to hold this level and price pushed to the 1.0032 level in New York. We can consider this move as the end of the wave A (coloured blue). Today during the Asian session the price started to move in a downward direction and we have observed it testing 200EMA support, today we are awaiting USD/CAD under 0.9950. Presently we can observe B wave.
In accordance with our wave rules and taking into account that the wave B should retrace 61.8 or 78.6% of the wave A, we can define the potential targets with Fibonacci retracement (0.9925-1.0032); the First Take Profit at 0.9966 (61.8% of wave A) and Second Take Profit at 0.9945 (78.6% of wave A). For Stop Loss we can use the invalidation point at 1.0000. It is necessary to consider the data concerning the U.S Building Permits, Housing Starts, Capacity Utilization Rate, Industrial Production m/m and CAD BOC Rate Statement, Overnight Rate that can affect the rate of the pair.
Support and Resistance levels
(S3) 0.9940 (S2) 0.9963 (S1) 0.9977 (PP) 0.9999 (R1) 1.0022 (R2) 1.0036 (R3) 1.0058
