USD/CHF Price Forecast: Swissie rebounds at 0.8042 support

  • USD/CHF rebounds from 0.8042 support, preserving bullish structure.
  • RSI turns higher from neutral, signaling renewed upside momentum.
  • Break above 0.8100 exposes 0.8171 and 0.8250 resistance.

The USD/CHF reversed course, rising by over 0.40% late Thursday as the Greenback staged a recovery amid overall risk aversion, heightened tensions in the Middle East, and strong US economic data. The pair trades at 0.8088 after bouncing off daily lows of 0.8045.

USD/CHF price forecast: Technical outlook

The USD/CHF made a U-turn after testing the March 31 high-turned-support at 0.8042, exacerbating a move toward 0.8100.

Momentum as measured by the Relative Strength Index (RSI) indicates that bulls are gathering some steam after taking a breather on Wednesday, as the index briefly touched the 50-neutral level. Since then, the RSI’s aim has been toward the 60 level, an indication that the uptrend might continue.

If USD/CHF climbs above 0.8100, this opens the door to test the August 1, 2025 daily peak at 0.8171, and then the June 4, 2025 high at 0.8250. Conversely, a drop below 0.8100 opens the door to test the psychological 0.8000 level. Below this area lies the 50-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) at 0.7967, followed by the 200-day SMA at 0.7919.

GBP/USD bounces off over one-week low; upside potential seems limited

The GBP/USD pair edges higher at the start of a new week, reversing a part of Friday's heavy losses to over a one-week trough. Spot prices, however, lack bullish conviction and trade below mid-1.3500s during the Asian session, warranting caution before confirming that the recent pullback from the highest level since February has run its course.

Gold pares intraday losses to sub-$4,400 levels; not out of the woods yet

Gold recovers slightly from sub-$4,400 levels touched during the Asian session, though the upside potential seems limited. A softer US Dollar offers some support to the precious metal and helps trim a part of its intraday losses. Meanwhile, Federal Reserve Chair Kevin Warsh's comments on curbing inflationary pressures on Friday lifted bets for an interest rate hike, which might keep a lid on any meaningful recovery for the non-yielding bullion.
