|- USD/CHF remains range-bound though it meanders slightly below the 0.9200 figure.
- USD/CHF: If it reclaims the 50-day EMA, it will shift neutral; otherwise, a resumption of the downtrend is likely.
The USD/CHF drops for two consecutive days, though buyers are reclaiming the February 7 daily low of 0.9191, as they are eyeing to reclaim the 50-day EMA at 0.9299. At the time of writing, the USD/CHF exchanges hands at around 0.9200.
USD/CHF Price Analysis: Technical outlook
After dropping beneath 0.9200, the USD/CHF encountered solid support at around 0.9180s, beneath a two-month-old downslope resistance trendline, that turned support. It should be said that the USD/CHF pair is still neutral to downward biased, but with the 20-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) resting at 0.9215, the USD/CHF could rally in the near term.
Nevertheless, oscillators like the Relative Strength Index (RSI) suggest that a bearish continuation is expected after crossing beneath the 50 mid-line. Contrarily, the Rate of Change (RoC) indicates sideways action.
For the USD/CHF to shift neutral, buyers must reclaim the 50-day EMA at 0.9299. Once that happens, then USD/CHF buyers could be poised to test the 100-day EMA at 0.9416. ahead of the 200-day EMA at 0.9478.
For a resumption of the downtrend, the USD/CHF needs to crack the February 3 daily low of 0.9112, which could pave the way for a retest of the YTD low at 0.9059.
