No change in EUR/CHF’s outlook despite diminishing downside momentum. As long as 1.1637 minor resistance holds, deeper decline is expected to 1.1478 support. Break there will confirm completion of corrective rebound from 1.1366 at 1.1713. EUR/CHF should then resume the decline from 1.2004 through 1.1366. On the upside, above 1.1637 minor resistance will turn bias back to the upside and could extend the rise from 1.1366. But even in that case, we’d expect strong resistance from 61.8% retracement of 1.2004 to 1.1366 at 1.1760 to bring near term reversal.
In the bigger picture, 1.2004 is seen as a medium term top with bearish divergence condition in daily and weekly MACD. 1.2000 is also an important resistance level. Hence, the corrective pattern from 1.2004 is expected to extend for a while before completion. We’re not anticipating a break of 1.2004 in near term. Another decline cannot be ruled out yet. But in that case, strong support should be seen at 1.1198 (2016 high), 61.8% retracement of 1.0629 to 1.2004 at 1.1154 to contain downside.
