Jane Foley, a Senior FX Strategist at Rabobank, reviews the Commitment of Traders report highlighting the positive net positions on the Swiss franc. EUR/CHF is trading at 1.064.

Key quotes

“In January demand for the CHF was lifted by the news that the US Treasury put Switzerland back on its FX monitoring list after a short break.”
