USD/CHF

Attempts to break through the upper border of the recent 1.0059/1.0236 band, with renewed attempt on 1.0223, overnight’s rejection high, underway. Sustained break above 1.0236 will signal resumption of recovery and expose 1.0310 first. Failure under 1.0236, however, would risk lower top, ahead of fresh weakness and open 1.0100/1.0059, possibly 0.9960 on a break.


Res: 1.0223, 1.0237, 1.0261, 1.0275
Sup: 1.0099, 1.0059, 1.0027, 1.0000
