The USD/CHF plunged after hitting fresh weekly highs around 0.9408, plummeting beneath the 0.9300 figure, on mixed US economic data that triggered a sell-off in the US Dollar (USD); therefore, the USD/CHF collapsed. At the time of writing, the USD/CHF is trading at 0.9281.

USD/CHF Price Analysis: Technical outlook

From a weekly chart perspective, after hitting a weekly high of around 0.9408, the USD/CHF finished the week with gains of 0.45%. It should be said that the week ending on January 6 printed a candlestick with a significant upper wick, meaning that sellers are gathering momentum. With the Relative Strength Index (RSI) extending its fall to bearish territory and the Rate of Change (RoC) aiming lower, the USD/CHF could test 0.9200 in the near term.

The USD/CHF daily chart portrays the pair as downward biased, though consolidating and unable to crack the 0,9200 mark. Following the upbreak of a falling wedge, the USD/CHF failed to gain traction and got trapped around the 0.9250-0.9400 mark.

Oscillators like the Relative Strength Index (RSI) shifted gears, turning bearish, while the Rate of Change (RoC) suggests that sellers outpaced buyers.

Therefore, the USD/CHF first support would be the falling wedge top-trendline which turned support at 0.9240, followed by the 0.9200 mark. Break below, and the USD/CHF might fall toward the 2022 low of 0.9091. On the flip side, the USD/CHF first resistance would be the 0.9300 mark. Once cleared, the next resistance would be January’s 6 high of 0.9408, followed by the 50-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) at 0.9438.

EUR/USD keeps the bid bias just over 1.1800

EUR/USD has started the week on a positive foot, hovering around the 1.1800 region in the latter part of Monday’s session.

GBP/USD looks stuck around 1.3500 amid firm gains

GBP/USD is pushing further north on Monday, revisiting the 1.3500 hurdle and beyond. Cable’s uptick is largely being fuelled by the broader softness in the Greenback, amid lingering uncertainty around tariffs.

Gold pops above $5,200, four-week highs

XRP recovers slightly as bearish sentiment dominates crypto market

Ripple is rising above $1.40 at the time of writing on Monday amid fresh tariff-triggered headwinds in the broader cryptocurrency market.
