The best method to identify a classic “price action reversal” is for an hourly candle to close, such as a pin bar, a doji, an outside or even just an engulfing candle with a higher close. You can exploit these levels or zones by watching the price action that occurs at the given levels.

USD/CHF Analysis

There is little to say about this pair except that it has no long-term trend, although it does have a medium-term bullish trend. The price fell in line with the drop in the U.S. Dollar yesterday, but it seems to be recovering from an area close to the nearest support, just above the parity level. There are probably going to be better trading opportunities elsewhere.

USDCHF

There is nothing due today regarding the CHF. Concerning the USD, there will be a release of PPI and Unemployment Claims data at 1:30pm London time, followed by Preliminary UoM Consumer Sentiment number at 3pm.
