CHF is showing conflicting signals across timeframes [Video]

 Daily chart outlook

  • Support sits at 7908–7897 depending on system.
  • Heavy overhead resistance between 7868–8002.
  • A close above 8002 would relieve downside pressure and keep the continuation pattern intact.
  • Upside potential: 8025–8100.
  • Daily indicators are turning positive, suggesting short‑term buying opportunities with tight stops

 Weekly chart outlook

  • A sharp drop from 9200 has left the market consolidating — a pause before the next leg.
  • Weekly indicators remain bearish, and if support yields, buyers could be taken out.
  • I always say: reverse longs on the second break of a major level — the first break often belongs to algos and indecision.
  • Longer‑term charts point to risk of testing ATLows near 7100 in 2026

The takeaway: short‑term buy up to resistance, but be ready to switch sides quickly.

$Swissy never really recovered to its pre‑2015 highs — a shame, because it remains a fascinating market to trade.
