USD/CHF Price Analysis: Trend-widening chart pattern, Doji candlestick advocate volatility

  • USD/CHF remains sidelined inside one-month-old megaphone formation.
  • 21-DMA challenges recovery moves favored by Monday’s Doji candlestick.
  • Sluggish RSI line signals more grinding but bullish MACD signals probe bears of late.

USD/CHF steadiness near 0.9260-65 as the Swiss Franc (CHF) traders struggle to justify the previous day’s Doji candlestick during early Tuesday. In doing so, the major currency pair remains inside a one-month-long megaphone trend-widening chart formation.

That said, the steady RSI (14) suggests further grinding of the USD/CHF prices but the bullish MACD signals challenge the pair buyers. Additionally probing the quote’s immediate upside is the 21-DMA resistance near 0.9285.

It should be noted that the stated megaphone’s top line, close to 0.9420 by the press time, appears a tough nut to crack for the USD/CHF bulls before retaking control.

Ahead of that, the November 2022 low near 0.9355 may probe the recovery moves past 0.9285.

Alternatively, the 0.9200 round figure and the monthly bottom around 0.9165 could restrict the short-term USD/CHF downside ahead of highlighting the stated trend-widening chart pattern’s lower line, close to 0.9145 at the latest.

In a case where the USD/CHF bears keep the reins past 0.9145, the 0.9100 round figure will precede the previous yearly low of 0.9091 to please them.

Overall, USD/CHF is likely to remain sideways even if the pair sellers appear to have run out of steam of late.

EUR/USD eyes 1.1800 barrier near two-month highs

EUR/USD extends its gains for the second successive session, trading around 1.1780 during the Asian hours on Tuesday. On the daily chart, technical analysis indicates a persistent bullish bias, as the pair moves upward within the ascending channel pattern. Additionally, the 14-day Relative Strength Index at 68.89 sits near overbought, signaling strong demand. RSI remains elevated, which could cap gains if overbought conditions emerge.

GBP/USD knocks ten-week highs ahead of holiday slowdown

GBP/USD found room on the high side on Monday, kicking off a holiday-shortened trading week with a fresh spat of Greenback weakness, bolstering the Pound Sterling into its highest bids in ten weeks. Pound traders are largely brushing off the latest interest rate cut from the Bank of England as the UK’s central bank policy strategy leaves the water murky for rate-cut watchers.

Gold bulls seem unstoppable amid supportive fundamental backdrop

Gold is seen building on the previous day's strong rally of over 2% and continues scaling new all-time highs for the second consecutive day on Tuesday. The commodity climbs closer to the $4,500 psychological mark during the Asian session and remains well supported by a combination of factors. 

Uniswap holds above $6 as traders eye UNIfication vote outcome

Uniswap price holds above $6 at the time of writing on Tuesday after closing above a key resistance zone in the previous week. Traders are focusing on the highly anticipated UNIfication proposal, which is set to conclude on Thursday, and could become a key near-term catalyst. On the technical side, momentum indicators are flashing bullish signals, hinting at an upside rally.

Ten questions that matter going into 2026

2026 may be less about a neat “base case” and more about a regime shift—the market can reprice what matters most (growth, inflation, fiscal, geopolitics, concentration). The biggest trap is false comfort: the same trades can look defensive… right up until they become crowded.

XRP steadies above $1.90 support as fund inflows and retail demand rise

Ripple (XRP) is stable above support at $1.90 at the time of writing on Monday, after several attempts to break above the $2.00 hurdle failed to materialize last week. Meanwhile, institutional interest in the cross-border remittance token has remained steady.
