USD/CHF Weekly Outlook

USD/CHF’s extended rebound last week suggests that a short term bottom was formed at 0.8886 already. Initial bias stays on the upside this week for 0.9086 resistance first. Sustained break there will pave the way back to 0.9342 resistance next. On the downside, however, below 0.8962 minor support will turn bias back to the downside for 0.8886 and possibly below.

In the bigger picture, outlook is mixed up by the deeper than expected pull back from 0.9243. Yet there was no follow through selling after hitting 0.8886. On the upside, break of 0.9243 resistance will revive the case of medium term bottoming at 0.8851, and turn outlook bullish. However, sustained break of 61.8% retracement of 0.8551 to 0.9243 at 0.8815 will argue that larger decline from 1.0146 is ready to resume through 0.8551 low.

In the long term picture, there is no clear sign that down trend from 1.8305 (2000 high) has completed. With 38.2% retracement of 1.8305 to 0.7065 at 1.1359 intact, outlook is neutral at best.

Daily Pivots: (S1) 0.9844; (P) 0.9865; (R1) 0.9894; More….

USD/CHF’s rally from accelerates to as high as 0.9940 so far and intraday bias remains on the upside for 1.0037 resistance. Firm break there will confirm resumption of whole rise from 0.9420 and target 61.8% projection of 0.9420 to 0.9734 from 1.0047 at 1.0115 next. On the downside, below 0.9871 minor support will dampen the immediate bullish case and turn intraday bias neutral first.

In the bigger picture, range trading continues between 0.9420/1.0342. At this point, 0.9420 appears to be a strong support level. Therefore, in case of decline attempt, we don’t expect a firm break of this level. Nonetheless, strong break of 1.0342 is also needed to confirm upside momentum. Otherwise, medium term outlook will stay neutral.

Intraday bias in USD/CHF remains neutral for the moment. On the upside, break of 1.0008 resistance will indicate that pull back from 1.0128 has completed. Intraday bias would be turned back to the upside for retesting 1.0128 first. On the downside, below 0.9862 will target 0.9848 support first. Sustained break there will confirm near term reversal and target 61.8% retracement of 0.9541 to 1.0128 at 0.9765 and below.

In the bigger picture, rise from 0.9541 could have topped at 1.0128. But as long as 0.9541 support holds, we’d still expect rise from 0.9186 to resume at a later stage. Break of 1.0128 will target 1.0342 key resistance. However, break of 0.9514 will pave the way back to 0.9186 low.

Daily Pivots: (S1) 0.9422; (P) 0.9461; (R1) 0.9499; More

Intraday bias in USD/CHF remains neutral as consolidation from 0.9355 is still extending. On the downside, firm break of 0.9355 will resume the decline from 1.0146 to 0.9287 fibonacci level. Near term outlook will remain bearish as long as 0.9680 minor resistance holds, in case of another recovery.

In the bigger picture, rise from 0.8756 (2021 low) has completed at 1.0146, well ahead of 1.0342 long term resistance (2016 high). Based on current downside momentum, fall from 1.0146 might be a medium term down trend itself. Break of 61.8% retracement of 0.8756 to 1.0146 at 0.9287 will pave the way to 0.8756. In any case, risk will stay on the downside as long as 55 day EMA (now at 0.9726) holds.

USD/CHF Mid-Day Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 0.9182; (P) 0.9204; (R1) 0.9220; More….

Intraday bias in USD/CHF remains neutral and outlook is unchanged. Further decline is still in favor with 0.9251 minor resistance intact. Corrective rise from 0.8927 should be complete with three waves up to 0.9367, on bearish divergence condition in daily MACD. Below 0.9148 will target 0.9017 support first, and then 0.8925 support next. On the upside, however, break of 0.9251 minor resistance will turn bias back to the upside for retesting 0.9367 instead.

In the bigger picture, the corrective structure of the rebound from 0.8925 argues that fall from 0.9471 is not completed yet. It could either be the second leg of pattern from 0.8756 (2021 low), or resuming larger down trend from 1.0237 (2018 high). We’d pay attention to the downside momentum and assess the odds later. But for now, medium term outlook will be neutral at best as long as 0.9471 resistance holds.

USD/CHF Mid-Day Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 0.8952; (P) 0.8977; (R1) 0.9001; More

No change in USD/CHF’s outlook and intraday bias remains neutral. Risk stays on the downside as long as 0.9146 resistance holds. Below 0.8900 will target 0.8818 and possibly below. But strong support is still expected from 0.8756 to bring reversal.

In the bigger picture, fall from 1.1046 (2022 high) is seen as a leg in the long term range pattern from 1.0342 (2016 high), which might have completed at 0.8818 already, just ahead of 0.8756 long term support. Sustained trading above 0.9058 support turned resistance should confirm medium term bottoming.

USD/CHF Mid-Day Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 0.9916; (P) 0.9936; (R1) 0.9966; More

USD/CHF drops sharply today as low as 0.9864 but recovered ahead of 0.9862 low. Outlook is unchanged at price actions from 1.0128 are forming a corrective pattern. Downside should be contained by 0.9848 support to bring rebound. On the upside, above 0.9989 will turn bias back to the upside for retesting 1.0128 high.

In the bigger picture, current development suggests that the medium term rally from 0.9186 hasn’t completed yet. Break of 1.0128 will target 1.0342 key resistance next (2016 high). On the downside, break of 0.9848 support will dampen this bullish view and turn focus back to 0.9541 key support instead.

USD/CHF Mid-Day Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 0.9925; (P) 0.9950; (R1) 0.9981; More

USD/CHF’s rally is still in progress and intraday bias remains on the upside. Current rise from 0.9541 should target t 1.0067 key resistance and then 61.8% projection of 0.9541 to 0.9954 from 0.9848 at 1.0103. On the downside, break of 0.9848 support is needed to indicate short term topping. Otherwise, further rally will be expected even in case of retreat.

In the bigger picture, the pullback from 1.0067 has completed at 0.9541 already. And rise from 0.9186 is likely resuming. Firm break of 1.0067 will pave the way to retest 1.0342 key resistance. We’d be cautious on strong resistance from there to limit upside to bring another medium term fall to extend long term range trading.

USD/CHF Daily Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 0.9080; (P) 0.9115; (R1) 0.9173; More

USD/CHF’s break of 0.9151 minor resistance suggests short term bottoming at 0.9056, on bullish convergence in 4 hour MACD. Intraday bias is turned back to the upside for 4 hour 55 EMA (now at 0.9203) and above. At this point, we’d expect upside to be limited below 0.9376 support turned resistance. On the downside, break of 0.9056 will extend recent down trend form 0.9901.

In the bigger picture, decline from 1.0237 is seen as the third leg of the pattern from 1.0342 (2016 low). Current development suggests that such pattern is still extending. Sustain trading below 100% projection of 1.0342 to 0.9186 from 1.0237 at 0.9081 will pave the way to 138.2% projection at 0.8639. On the upside, break of 0.9376 resistance is needed to be the first sign of medium term bottoming.

USD/CHF Mid-Day Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 1.0034; (P) 1.0069; (R1) 1.0097; More

Intraday bias in USD/CHF remains neutral as consolidation from 1.0128 continues. Another rally is expected as long as 0.9952 support holds. On the upside, break of 1.0128 would resume larger rise from 0.9186 and target 1.0342 key resistance. However, firm break of 0.9952 will indicate short term topping and bring deeper fall.

In the bigger picture, the pullback from 1.0067 has completed at 0.9541 already. And rise from 0.9186 is likely resuming. Firm break of 1.0067 will pave the way to retest 1.0342 key resistance. We’d be cautious on strong resistance from there to limit upside to bring another medium term fall to extend long term range trading. However, firm break of 0.9848 near term support will dampen this view and bring deeper decline back to 0.9541 support and possibly below.

USD/CHF Daily Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 0.9148; (P) 0.9164; (R1) 0.9190; More….

Intraday bias in USD/CHF remains neutral as it’s still staying in consolidation from 0.9090. On the downside, firm break of 0.9084 support will argue that choppy rise from 0.8925 has completed. Fall from 0.9471 might be ready to resuming. Further decline would be seen back to 0.8925 support first. On the upside, above 0.9276 will target 0.9372 resistance instead.

In the bigger picture, the corrective structure of the rebound from 0.8925 argues that fall from 0.9471 is not complete yet. It could either be the second leg of pattern from 0.8756 (2021 low), or resuming larger down trend from 1.0237 (2018 high). We’d pay attention to the downside momentum and assess the odds later. But for now, medium term outlook will be neutral at best as long as 0.9471 resistance holds.

USD/CHF Weekly Outlook

A short term bottom was in place at 0.8332 with last week’s rebound, but price actions from there are seen as a corrective pattern only. Initial bias in USD/CHF is neutral this week first. Outlook remains bearish with 0.8665 support turned resistance intact. On the downside, break of 0.8332 will resume larger fall from 0.9243 to 0.8257 projection level.

In the bigger picture, the down trend from 1.0146 (2022 high) is in progress. Next target is 61.8% retracement of 1.0146 to 0.8551 from 0.9243 at 0.8257. Sustained break there could prompt downside acceleration to 100% projection at 0.7648. This will now remain the favored case as long as 0.8819 resistance holds.

In the long term picture, there is no clear sign that down trend from 1.8305 (2000 high) has completed. With 38.2% retracement of 1.8305 to 0.7065 at 1.1359 intact, outlook is neutral at best.

USD/CHF Mid-Day Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 0.9681; (P) 0.9706; (R1) 0.9744; More

USD/CHF is staying in range of 0.9592 and 0.9797 and intraday bias remains neutral first. On the downside, break of 0.9592 will bring deeper decline. But downside should be contained by 61.8% retracement of 0.9181 to 0.9901 at 0.9456 to rebound. On the upside, break of 0.9797 will bring retest of 0.9901 high.

In the bigger picture, decline from 1.0237 is seen as the third leg of the pattern from 1.0342 (2016 low). It could have completed at 0.9181 after hitting 0.9186 key support (2018 low). Break of 0.9901 will extend the rebound form 0.9181 through 1.0023 resistance. After all, medium term range trading will likely continue between 0.9181/1.0237 for some more time.

USD/CHF Mid-Day Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 0.9016; (P) 0.9041; (R1) 0.9079; More….

No change in USD/CHF’s outlook as consolidation from 0.9094 is extending. Intraday bias stays neutral at this point. Deeper decline cannot be ruled out, but outlook will stay bullish as long as 0.8884 resistance turned support holds. On the upside, break of 0.9094 will resume larger rise from 0.8332 to 0.9243 key resistance.

In the bigger picture, price actions from 0.8332 medium term bottom as tentatively seen as developing into a corrective pattern to the down trend from 1.0146 (2022 high). Further rise would be seen as long as 0.8728 support holds. But upside should be limited by 0.9243 resistance, at least on first attempt.

USD/CHF Weekly Outlook

USD/CHF’s decline from 1.0098 extended to as low as 0.9926 last week but formed a temporary bottom there and recovered. Initial bias is neutral this week first. Based on the structure of the fall, we’d treat it as a corrective pull back first. On the upside, break of 1.0014 minor resistance will suggests that the pull back is completed. Intraday bias will then be turned back to the upside for retesting 1.0098. On the downside, below 0.9926 will extend the corrective fall to 61.8% retracement of 0.9716 to 1.0098 at 0.9862. We’d look for bottoming signal again below there.

In the bigger picture, USD/CHF drew strong support from medium term trend line and rebounded. That suggests rise from 0.9186 is still in progress. Further break of 1.0128 will confirm up trend resumption and target 1.0342 key resistance. Nevertheless, break of 0.9716 will dampen this bullish view and at least bring deeper fall to 0.9541 key support.

In the long term picture, price actions from 0.7065 (2011 low) are not clearly impulsive yet. Thus, we’ll treat it as developing into a corrective pattern, at least, until a firm break of 1.0342 resistance.

USD/CHF Daily Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 0.9549; (P) 0.9574; (R1) 0.9616; More

While USD/CHF’s recovery from 0.9355 extends higher today, upside is limited well below 0.9680 minor resistance. Intraday bias stays neutral first, and further decline is still expected. On the downside, break of 0.9355 will resume the fall from 1.0146 to 0.9287 fibonacci level. Nevertheless, firm break of 0.9680 will bring stronger rebound to 55 day EMA (now at 0.9761).

In the bigger picture, rise from 0.8756 (2021 low) has completed at 1.0146, well ahead of 1.0342 long term resistance (2016 high). Based on current downside momentum, fall from 1.0146 might be a medium term down trend itself. Break of 61.8% retracement of 0.8756 to 1.0146 at 0.9287 will pave the way to 0.8756. In any case, risk will stay on the downside as long as 55 day EMA (now at 0.9767) holds.

USD/CHF Mid-Day Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 0.9140; (P) 0.9170; (R1) 0.9186; More

Outlook in USD/CHF is unchanged and intraday bias stays neutral. Corrective pattern from 0.9058 low is in extending. Another rise cannot be ruled out, but upside should be limited by 0.9474 fibonacci level. On the downside, firm break of 0.9058 will resume larger down trend from 1.1046.

In the bigger picture, fall from 1.1046 (2022 high) should still be in progress with 38.2% retracement of 1.0146 to 0.9058 at 0.9474 intact. Prior rejection by 55 week EMA was a medium term bearish sign. Break of 0.9058 will resume such decline towards 0.8756 support (2021 low). But overall, this fall is still as a leg in the long term range pattern from 1.0342 (2016 high). So, downside should be contained by 0.8756 to bring reversal.

USD/CHF Mid-Day Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 1.0056; (P) 1.0077; (R1) 1.0099; More…..

Intraday bias in USD/CHF remains neutral as consolidation from 1.0099 temporary top extends lower. Deeper pull back could be seen. But downside is expected to be contained by 0.9977 and bring another rise. As noted before, correction from 1.0342 should have completed at 0.9812. Break of 1.0107 should pave the way to retest 1.0342 high.

In the bigger picture, we’re still maintaining that firm break of 1.0342 key resistance is needed to confirm underlying bullish momentum in the pair. However, the corrective nature of the fall from 1.0342 is starting to give the medium term outlook a bullish favor. Hence, in stead of looking for topping signal around 1.0342, we’d now pay closer attention to upside acceleration as USD/CHF approaches this level again.

Intraday bias in USD/CHF remains neutral at this point. Some consolidations could be seen above 0.8822 temporary low first. But upside of recovery should be limited by 0.8982 resistance to bring fall resumption. On the downside, break of 0.8822 will resume larger down trend for 61.8% projection of 0.9901 to 0.8998 from 0.9304 at 0.8746 next.

In the bigger picture, decline from 1.0237 is seen as the third leg of the pattern from 1.0342 (2016 high). There is no clear sign of completion yet. Next target will be 138.2% projection of 1.0342 to 0.9186 from 1.0237 at 0.8639. In any case, break of 0.9304 resistance is needed to signal medium term bottoming. Otherwise, outlook will remain bearish in case of rebound.

USD/CHF Daily Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 0.9066; (P) 0.9082; (R1) 0.9102; More

USD/CHF recovers mildly today but stays in consolidation form 0.9030. Intraday bias remains neutral at this point. In case of stronger recovery, upside should be limited below 0.9165 resistance. On the downside, break of 0.9030 will target 0.8998 low first. Firm break there will resume larger down trend to 61.8% projection of 0.9901 to 0.8998 from 0.9304 at 0.8746. However, break of 0.9165 will invalidate this bearish view and turn bias back to the upside for 0.9304 resistance.

In the bigger picture, decline from 1.0237 is seen as the third leg of the pattern from 1.0342 (2016 high). There is no clear sign of completion yet. On resumption, next target will be 138.2% projection of 1.0342 to 0.9186 from 1.0237 at 0.8639. Nevertheless, strong break of 0.9304 resistance will be an early sign of trend reversal and turn focus back to 0.9901 key resistance for confirmation.
