Talking Points:

  • USD/CHF Technical Strategy: Flat

  • Support:0.9256, 0.9139, 0.9015

  • Resistance: 0.9346, 0.9541, 0.9656

The US Dollar declined against the Swiss Franc as expected after producing a bearish Evening Star candlestick pattern. A daily close below trend line support at 0.9256 exposes the 38.2% Fibonacci expansion at 0.9139. Alternatively, a push above a downward-sloping barrier at 0.9346 clears the way for a test of support-turned-resistance at 0.9541.

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.
