USD/CHF Analysis

This pair is showing a healthy rise as we approach the London open, and has put in new support below at the round number of 1.0200. However, I expect this move is quite likely to run out of steam if it reaches the 1.0250 area as there was a lot of recent selling above that number. The resistance at 1.0315 looks strong.USDCHF

There is nothing due today regarding the CHF. Concerning the USD, there will be a release of ISM Manufacturing PMI data at 3pm London time.
