Talking Points:

  • USD/CHF Technical Strategy: Flat

  • Support:0.9572, 0.9524, 0.9491

  • Resistance: 0.9641, 0.9712, 0.9770

The US Dollar remains in consolidation mode after rising to the highest level in three months against the Swiss Franc. A daily close above the 23.6% Fibonacci expansion at 0.9641 exposes the 38.2% level at 0.9712. Alternatively, a turn below trend line support at 0.9572 clears the way for a test of the July 23 low at 0.9524.

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.
