Talking Points:

• USD/CHF Technical Strategy: Flat

• Support:0.9108, 0.8954, 0.8830

• Resistance: 0.9357, 0.9490, 0.9616

The US Dollar is attempting to regain momentum against the Swiss Franc after rebounding from range support above the 0.91 figure. A daily close above the May 12 high at 0.9357 exposes horizontal support-turned-resistance at 0.9490. Alternatively, a reversal below the 23.6% Fibonacci expansion at 0.9108 opens the door for a challenge of the 38.2% level at 0.8954.

Prices are too close to resistance to justify entering long from a risk/reward perspective. On the other hand, the absence of a defined bearish reversal signal suggests that taking up the short side is premature. With that in mind, we will remain flat for now.
