The EUR/CHF dipped to a new low for the week at 0.9623 in early Friday trading before markets saw a broad-base tilt back into risk-on mode, pushing risk assets higher and sending safe havens lower to round out the week's trading.

Pan-EU finalized Harmonized Index of Consumer Prices (HICP) for October came in broadly as expected early Friday, with the month-on-month figure printing at 0.1% and the annualized period into October showing 2.9%.

As inflation cools in the European economy, the outlook for the Euro is leaning towards the downside as an increasingly-dovish European Central Bank (ECB) gets pushed even further away from its hawkish stance.

EUR/CHF Technical Outlook

The Euro's Friday kicker against the Swiss Franc has the pair trading into the week's high side, climbing over the 0.9660 level in the last hour of market trading.

The EUR/CHF has been cycling the 50-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) ever since hitting consolidation back in August, cycling 0.9525 to 0.9600.

The Euro tumbled to a yearly low 0.9417 in October before rallying over 2.6% to Friday's closing bids, but near-term bullish momentum is going to be capped off by the 200-day SMA sinking into 0.9700.

"Rearranging the deckchairs on the Titanic": UK's fiscal crisis outlasts another Prime Minister

Regime change: Inside Kevin Warsh's first move to make the Fed unreadable on purpose

The rate did not move. That was the least interesting thing about Kevin Warsh's first meeting in charge of the Fed. The FOMC held its benchmark at 3.50%-3.75% for the fourth straight meeting, exactly as priced, and then the new chair used his first press conference to dismantle the machinery the market has leaned on for a decade.
