Talking Points:

  • USD/CHF Technical Strategy: Flat

  • Support:0.9695, 0.9428, 0.9213

  • Resistance: 1.0051, 1.0126, 1.0249

The US Dollar lost its footing above parity threshold against the Swiss Franc overturning its two-month uptrend. A daily close below the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement at 0.9695 exposes the 38.2% level at 0.9428. Alternatively, a move back above trend line support-turned-resistance at 1.0051 opens the door for at test of the March 12 high at 1.0126.

Prices are too close to support to justify entering short from a risk/reward perspective. On the other hand, the absence of a defined bullish reversal signal suggests that taking up the long side is premature. With that in mind, we will remain flat for now.
