Talking Points:
- USD/CHF Technical Strategy: Flat
- Support:0.9249, 0.9139, 0.9015
- Resistance: 0.9360, 0.9539, 0.9656
The US Dollar moved lower against the Swiss Franc as expected after putting in a bearish Evening Star candlestick pattern. Near-term trend line support is at 0.9249, with a break below that on a daily closing basis exposing the 38.2% Fibonacci expansion at 0.9139. Alternatively, a turn above a downward-sloping barrier at 0.9360 opens the door for a challenge of support-turned-resistance at 0.9539.
Positioning is inconclusive at this point, with prices offering no clear-cut and actionable signal to initiate a long or short trade. We will continue to remain on the sidelines for the time being, waiting for a compelling opportunity to present itself.
