Talking Points:

  • USD/CHF Technical Strategy: Flat

  • Support:0.9179, 0.9071, 0.8958

  • Resistance: 0.9554, 0.9769, 0.9985

The US Dollar continued to push higher against the Swiss Franc, with buyers now taking aim at late May swing highs. A daily close above the 0.9551-54 area (23.6% Fibonacci expansion, trend line) exposes the 38.2% level at 0.9769. Alternatively, a turn below trend line support at 0.9179 clears the way for a test of the May 7 low at 0.9071.

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