USD/CHF’s recovery from 0.9551 extends today but it’s staying well below 0.9770 resistance. Price actions from 0.9551 are viewed as a corrective pattern and intraday bias remains neutral. Outlook will stay bearish as long as 0.9777 resistance holds. Below 0.9620 minor support will turn bias back to the downside first. Further break of 0.9551 will extend the decline from 1.0342 to 0.94443 key support level. At this point, we’d expect strong support from there to bring rebound. Meanwhile, break of 0.9777 will now indicate short term reversal, on bullish convergence condition in 4 hour MACD.
In the bigger picture, USD/CHF is still bounded in medium term range of 0.9443/1.0342 for the moment. Consolidative trading would likely continue and medium term outlook remains neutral. Break of 1.0342 key resistance is needed to confirm underlying bullish momentum in the pair. Meanwhile, downside attempts should be contained by 0.9443 key support level. However, sustained break of 0.9443 will carry larger bearish implication and target 0.9 handle.
