  • USD/CHF - 0.9644..Dlr tumbled to 0.9657 in Asia Wed on safe-haven buying of chf due to rising U.S.-N. Korea tensions. Price recovered to 0.9693 in Europe b4 dropping to session low of 0.9613 n later recovered to 0.9671 in NY morning.

  • Looking at the daily chart, despite dlr's early brief break of 2016 low at 0.9444 to a 22-month bottom of 0.9438 in Jul, subsequent cross-inspired rally abv 0.9553 (Jun' low) to 0.9793 on Tue confirms MT fall fm 1.0344 (2016 6-year peak in Dec) has made a low there as this lvl was also accompanied by 'bullish convergences' on the daily indicators. Having said that, y'day's selloff to as low as 0.9613 on risk aversion signals 1st leg of correction fm Jul's 22-month trough at 0.9438 has ended there n consolidation with downside bias would be seen for weakness to 0.9566, being the 61.8% retracement of aforesaid move but below sup at 0.9491 needed to indicate said correction fm 0.9438 is over.

  • Today, dlr's recovery to 0.9671 after y'day's selloff to 0.9613 would bring consolidation, reckon res at 0.9693 would cap upside n yield one more fall to 0.9595, however, as hourly indicators would display prominent 'bullish conver gences' on such move, reckon 0.9566 should hold. Abv 0.9710 may risk 0.9747.
