USD/CNH Technical Analysis: Pennant pattern seen on hourly chart
- The USD/CNH hourly chart shows a pennant pattern.. An upside breakout would mean continuation of the rally (or sell-off in offshore Yuan exchange rate) and would allow a break above the recent high of 6.7292.
- A technical correction would gather pace if the pennant is breached to the downside. This scenario is likely as the daily RSI is flashing overbought conditions.
