USD/CHF Technical Analysis: Flat-Lining at May Top

Talking Points:

  • USD/CHF Technical Strategy: Flat

  • Support:0.9258, 0.9186, 0.9113

  • Resistance: 0.9373, 0.9490, 0.9560

The US Dollar continues to tread water after failing to push above the May high above the 0.94 figure against the Swiss Franc. Near-term resistance is at 0.9373, the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement, with a break above that on a daily closing basis exposing the 0.9466-90 (50% level, channel support-turned-resistance). Alternatively, a turn below the 23.6% Fib at 0.9258 clears the way for a test of the 14.6% retracement at 0.9186.

Risk/reward considerations argue against entering long with prices in close proximity to resistance. On the other hand, the absence of a defined bearish reversal signal suggests taking up the short side is premature. We will remain flat for now, waiting for an actionable opportunity to present itself.
