USD/NOK is currently trading in a short-term channel down. The given patter was formed when the US Dollar lost value against the Norwegian Krone within the last week, thus resulting in a breakout of a more senior channel.

The rate halted at a two-month low of 7.7276 and has since recovered minor loses. Even though daily technical indicators flash bearish signals, the rate is expected to appreciate until the upper channel boundary near the 7.80 mark prior to resuming its downward momentum.

The upper channel line roughly matches the 55-hour SMA and the weekly PP circa 7.81—a level that could eventually reverse the US Dollar to the downside. The fall may be limited by the weekly and monthly S1s in the 7.67/68 area.
