Daily Analysis
Consolidation with upside bias

Resistance
0.9799 - Aug 17 high
0.9714 - 70.7% r of 0.9903-0.9257
0.9673 - Y'day's high

. USD/CHF - 0.9654... The pair continued its winning streak on Thur. Despite initial pullback to 0.9512 at Asian open, rally in Asian stocks, then the same in Europe & NY session helped dlr climb to as high as 0.9673 b4 easing.

. Looking at the hourly n daily charts, despite Mon's selloff to 0.9257, subsequent strg rebound to 0.9553 Wed, the 0.9673 y'day suggests the pullback fm Aug's 4-1/2 high at 0.9903 has ended n consolidation with upside bias remains. As price has risen abv 61.8% r (0.9656) of aforesaid fall, further gain twd 0.9714 (70.7% r) is now envisaged, however, reckon pivotal n strg res at 0.9799 would hold on 1st testing. Therefore, in view of abv analysis, buying dlr on dips is recommended n only a daily close below 0.9506 (prev. res, now sup) would signal top has been made, then risk would shoft to the downside for subsequent weaknes twd 0.9384.

. Today, as current price is trading well abv the 21-hr n 55-hr emas, buying dlr on dips is the way to go, however, as hourly oscillators' readings are in o/bot territory, strg gain is not envisaged today. On the downside, only below 0.9553 would be the 1st signal a temporary top is made n risk 0.9506.
