USD/CHF Price Forecast: Technical outlook

The USD/CHF consolidated around the 0.7909/0.7934 area during the day, amid the lack of a catalyst that could push prices to clear the bottom of the range. Even though the ‘dark cloud cover’ suggests that further downside is seen, sellers need to breach 0.7900 soo they can test the yearly low of 0.7829.

The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is pointing lower in bearish territory, further supporting downside potential.

On the flip side, a recovery above 0.7950 and subsequent breaks of 0.7970 and 0.8000 would strengthen bullish momentum, exposing the 50-day SMA at 0.8015.
