Buying pressures continue.

  • EUR/CHF is still trading above psychological level at 1.1000. Selling pressures are very weak at the moment. Hourly support is located at a distance at 1.0922 (30/06/2017 low). Expected to inch higher.

  • In the longer term, the technical structure is mixed. Resistance can be found at 1.1200 (04/02/2015 high). 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).
