How geopolitics have helped drive this haven currency to a 3-year low
The euro-Swiss franc pair is trading at a three-year high, close to the floor the Swiss National Bank abandoned back in January 2015. The euro-franc pair (EURCHF) rallied to a session high of 1.1994 francs on Wednesday, its best level since January 2015, when the Swiss National Bank removed the floor of 1.20 it had set for the franc versus the shared currency, and instead allowed the pair to trade freely. Part of the reason behind originally instituting this peg was to protect the Swiss franc from being inflated as the European Central Bank gobbled up European assets as part of its quantitative-easing program.

Gold breaks out, then pulls back on Wednesday
Gold markets broke out above the $1350 level during the day on Wednesday, but then pulled back to look for support. We did find it there, so I think that we could continue to see an upward move. However, keep a lot of caution in your trading plans as gold tends to be very noisy.

The New Zealand dollar fell rather significantly at the open on Wednesday, reaching down to the 0.73 level. That area offered enough support to turn things around though, and as I record this we are trying to find our way higher.

British pound falls against Japanese yen in early Wednesday trading
The British pound fell against the Japanese yen in early Wednesday trading, dropping down to the 152.00 region. We did bounce from there quite significantly though, and although this has been a very negative turn of events, I think looking around the Forex world, the British pound is trying to make a stand.

Euro rallies during trading session on Wednesday, using previous resistance as support
The EUR/USD pair has pulled back slightly during the trading session on Wednesday, testing the 1.2350 level, and an area that has been massively resistive in the past. I think this shows that we are ready to continue going higher, perhaps reaching towards the vital 1.25 level above.

EUR/GBP breaks above 0.87 on Wednesday
The EUR/GBP got a bit of a boost as deflationary fears entered the picture in the United Kingdom. However, there is a significant amount of noise in the immediate area where we are trading, so it makes sense that we may have gotten a bit of a pullback. I think the next 24 hours could be very crucial for this market.
