USD/CHF Price Forecast: Technical outlook
The USD/CHF continued its free fall in the overnight session, dropping from 0.9154, below the S1 daily pivot, reaching a new daily low at 0.9290, but have faced demand around December 31 of 2021, daily low at 0.9102.
On the downside, USD/CHF’s first support would be the 0.9100 figure. A breach of the latter would expose November 2, 2021, a daily low at 0.9085, followed by August 4, 2021, a daily low at 0.9018.
To the upside, the USD/CHF’s first resistance would be the confluence of an upslope trendline broken on January 12 and the 200-DMA around 0.9160-70. A decisive break of that area would expose 0.9200, followed by December 15, 2021, pivot high at 0.9294.
