Talking Points:

  • USD/CHF Technical Strategy: Flat

  • Support:0.9428, 0.9213, 0.8997

  • Resistance: 0.9756, 0.9921, 1.0188

The US Dollar is digesting losses against the Swiss Franc after finding support below the 0.95 figure. A daily close below the 38.2% Fibonacci retracementat 0.9428 exposes the 50% level at 0.9213. Alternatively, a turn above the 14.6% Fib expansion at 0.9756 opens the door for a test of the 23.6% barrier at 0.9921.

An actionable trade setup is absent at this point, arguing against committing to a directional bias on long or short side. We will continue to stand aside for now, waiting for a clear-cut trading opportunity to present itself in the days ahead.
