USD/CHF Analysis

After falling sharply, we saw a lot of buying at and below the key round number of 0.9700 and the price has been rising quite steadily since. It seems that the USD is putting in something of a recovery, at least as at the time of writing. However the area just below the crucial level of 0.9850 is likely to provide some resistance and might even halt the advance. Be careful taking a short there as so far the move up looks very solid, also bear in mind the U.S. is closed today so the market will probably be thinner than usual during New York business hours.

USDCHF

There is nothing due today concerning either the CHF or the USD.
