- Break above flag targets 0.8200 and yearly peak.

USD/CHF Price Forecast: Technical outlook
The market structure of successive higher highs and higher lows continues to be respected, indicating that the uptrend remains in place. Nevertheless, it seems that a bearish flag is forming, which could open the door for a deeper pullback before the USD/CHF resumes its uptrend.
Momentum remains bullish as depicted by the Relative Strength Index (RSI). But if USD/CHF falls below the 50-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) at 0.8071, it opens the door to a retracement, initially to 0.8042, ahead of 0.8000.
Conversely, if the pair surpasses the top trendline of the bearish flag, this clears the way towards 0.8200 and the yearly peak at 0.8205. Once those two levels are removed, buyers could challenge the psychological levels of 0.8250 and 0.8300.
