EUR/CHF drops sharply to as low as 1.1777 so far today and breaks 38.2% retracement of 1.1445 to 1.2004 at 1.1790. Based on current momentum, deeper decline would likely be seen. Intraday bias stays on the downside for 61.8% retracement at 1.1659 and below. On the upside, break of 1.1864 support turned resistance is needed to indicate short term bottoming. Otherwise, near term outlook will be mildly bearish even in case of recovery.
In the bigger picture, current development suggests solid rejection by prior SNB imposed floor at 1.2000. Considering bearish divergence condition in daily MACD, 1.2004 could be a medium term top. And price action from 1.2004 is corrective the up trend from 1.0629. Hence, for now, deeper fall could be seen back to 1.1445, which is close to 38.2% retracement of 1.0629 to 1.2004 at 1.1479. We’d expect strong support from there to bring rebound to extend the medium term corrective pattern.
