EUR/CHF: Eventually will break below 1.0500 – MUFG
|Downside risks for the EUR/CHF pair are set to persist according to analysts at MUFG Bank. They have the idea of a short trade with a target at 1.0350 and a stop loss at 1.0670 as they argue the Swiss National Bank (SNB) is still leaning heavily against the wind.
