. USD/CHF - 0.9545...

Price retreated to 0.9450 on cross-buying in chf b4 rising to 0.9546 Fri.

. Looking at the bigger picture, as mentioned in recent updates, despite a free fall fm Jan's fresh 2-1/2 year peak of 1.0240 to a 40-month trough of 0.7360 after SNB dropped the 1.20 franc cap, subsequent swift bounce had left a 'spike bottom' reversal on the daily chart. Last week's rally abv previous top at 0.9535 confirms the erratic upmove fm Jan's 4-month low at 0.7360 has once again resumed n shud head to 0.9596, this is 61.8% proj. of 0.9176-0.9535 fm 0.9374, however, reckon 0.9673 (50% projection of 0.9352-0.9347 fm 0.9176) wud cap upside. Therefore, buying dlr on dips in anticipation of gain to abovementioned targets is the way to go n only below last week's 0.9374 low signals a temporary top is in place n risks stronger retracement twd 0.9374.

. Today, intra-day eur/usd's weakness suggests buying dlr again on dips is the way to go n only below 0.9449/50 sup aborts present bullishness.
