USD/CHF Price Forecast: Remains below 0.7850 near moving averages

  • USD/CHF may test the descending channel’s lower boundary near 0.7690.
  • The 14-day Relative Strength Index near 47 signals weak momentum, not a clear oversold condition.
  • The initial resistance lies at the nine-day EMA of 0.7843.

USD/CHF remains subdued for the second successive day, trading around 0.7840 during European hours on Monday. The technical analysis of the daily chart indicates the pair is positioned within the descending channel pattern, signaling an ongoing bearish bias.

The USD/CHF pair keeps a bearish near-term bias as the spot price holds beneath both the nine-day and 50-day Exponential Moving Averages, respectively. The short-term EMA flattening just above the price and the longer EMA capping the pair hint at persistent overhead supply, while the 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) around 47 reflects subdued momentum rather than a decisive oversold condition.

The USD/CHF pair may navigate the region around the lower boundary of the descending channel around 0.7690. A successful break below the channel would reinforce the bearish bias and put downward pressure on the pair to test 0.7604, the lowest since August 2011, recorded in January.

On the upside, the immediate barrier lies at the nine-day EMA of 0.7843, followed by the 50-day EMA at 0.7862. A break above these EMAs would improve price momentum and support the USD/CHF pair to test the upper boundary of the descending channel around 0.7949. A sustained break above the channel would cause the emergence of the bullish bias and lead the pair to explore the region around the 10-month high of 0.8171, reached in August 2025.

Economics week ahead

This week, attention turns to Tuesday’s CPI report, with no year-over-year readings available because of last October’s shutdown-related data gap. We expect headline and core inflation to clock 0.28% and 0.21% month-over-month, respectively. Softer core inflation would offer some relief after September’s upside surprise but should still leave our call for a December rate hike intact.
