EURCHF – Retail traders remain near their most long the Euro versus the Swiss Franc on record, and it seems almost-inevitable that the EURCHF tests the Swiss National Bank’s stated floor at SFr1.20.

Trade Implications – EURCHF:Almost 98 percent of open positions were long the EURCHF last week, and even the fact that open short positions more than doubled leaves the crowd at 93% long. Such one-sided positions give us a steady contrarian signal that the pair may continue lower, but the obvious question is whether the Swiss National Bank will ably defend the critical SFr1.2000 mark.
