Finding buyers.

  • EUR/CHF recovery bounce continues. Strong resistance lies at 1.1566 (12/10/2017 high). Support is given at 1.1388 (02/09/2017 low). Downside risk is very likely.

  • In the longer term, the technical structure has reversed. Strong resistance is given at 1.20 (level before the unpeg). Yet, the ECB's QE programme is likely to cause persistent selling pressures on the euro, which should weigh on EUR/CHF. Supports can be found at 1.0184 (28/01/2015 low) and 1.0082 (27/01/2015 low).
