USD/CHF Price Forecast: Reclaims 0.8100 as market structure is bullish

  • USD/CHF posts higher lows, signaling buyers continue buying dips.
  • RSI keeps bullish bias, supporting path of least resistance higher.
  • Break above 0.8172 exposes 0.8200 and 0.8250 resistance.

The Swiss Franc loses ground against the Greenback in a trading session marked by CHF weakness amid improving risk appetite. At the time of writing, the USD/CHF trades at 0.8101, up 0.32%.

USD/CHF Price Forecast: Technical outlook

The USD/CHF recovered the 0.8100 level after hitting a three-day low of 0.8034 last week, in which the Greenback weakened. Worth noting that in the last four trading days, the pair reached a successive series of higher lows, hinting that buyers are moving in to buy the dip.

Momentum, as measured by the Relative Strength Index (RSI) shows that buyers hold the upper hand. Hence, the path of least resistance is upwards.

The first resistance for USD/CHF would be the August 1, 2025, peak at 0.8172. Above sits the 0.8200 mark, followed by the June 19, 2025, high at 0.8215, ahead of 0.8250. Once hurdled, the next stop would be the 0.8300 mark.

Downwards, the first support is the low of the day (LOD) at 0.8061. Below, the next support is the July 15 swing low of 0.8033 ahead of the psychological 0.8000 mark. A breach of it, and a move towards the 50-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) at 0.7979 is on the cards.
