USDCHF: Prefer to sell rallies
|USDCHF: 0.9731
US$Chf headed to a new 2017 low of 0.9691 on Monday before a bounce, to finish at 0.9740.
The daily momentum indicators are still pointing sharply lower and further downside momentum seems highly likely in the days ahead although the 4 hour charts appear to be recovering after having become oversold, so further short term consolidation may be needed on Tuesday.
If we do head lower, then back below the long-term rising trend line at 0.9705 would then open the way back to the session low and then to 0.9675 and to 0.9600/40, below which could see a return to the 9 Nov low at 0.9550.
On the topside, the initial, minor resistance will arrive at the session high of 0.9765 and then at 0.9785, above which could see a run back to 0.9800/10, which should be strong if we get there today and may present a decent sell opportunity although I doubt that we see it.
