Current Session: Europe − U.S.
(Swiss e Trade AG) − The dollar tried hard to break the resistance point at 1.1230 against the Swiss franc in early European trading, but so far has been unsuccessful. Currently priced at 1.1215, we expect another attack on the 1.1230 resistance level, but expect it to hold. A downmove then is likely, to support at 1.1150.
