The USDCHF daily Elliott Wave chart analysis shows a bullish trend. The price action is currently in an impulsive phase, indicating strong buying pressure.

USD/CHF Elliott Wave technical analysis – Four-hour chart

Function: Counter Trend.

Mode: Corrective.

Structure: Gray Wave 2.

Position: Orange Wave 5.

Direction next lower degrees: Gray Wave 3.

Details: Gray Wave 1 has completed; Gray Wave 2 is active.

Cancel invalid level: 0.84823.

The USDCHF 4-hour chart reflects a counter-trend situation with the price in a corrective phase. The active wave, Gray Wave 2, appears as part of a broader movement within Orange Wave 5, indicating a pullback within a larger bullish cycle.

Gray Wave 1 is now complete, transitioning the pair into Gray Wave 2. This phase usually retraces a portion of the previous movement before the dominant trend resumes. After Gray Wave 2 completes, Gray Wave 3 is expected to start, potentially continuing the major trend direction.

The invalidation level is set at 0.84823. If the price dips below this level, the current wave structure will be invalidated and require a new analysis. Until that occurs, the pattern supports a corrective pullback with the potential for upward resumption.

The technical picture suggests range-bound trading or mild pullbacks during Gray Wave 2. Traders should observe for signs of this wave’s completion before entering the next projected upward leg, Gray Wave 3.
