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
The price at the time of writing is sitting right at minor resistance at 0.9600. Otherwise, it is distant from any key support and resistance levels. The main observation technically which can be made is that the Swiss Franc is weaker than the Euro, so moves against the Dollar are probably better traded using the EUR/USD currency pair.
There is nothing due today concerning the CHF. Regarding the USD, there will be a release of ISM Manufacturing PMI data at 3pm London time.
