USD/CHF Price Forecast: Technical outlook
The technical picture shows the USD/CHF consolidating inside of a symmetrical triangle on a downtrend, which implies that the downtrend could resume, once sellers push the exchange rate below the key support trendline of the triangle at around 0.7650-0.7665.
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is bearish and aiming downwards, an indication that further losses lie ahead.
If sellers clear the support trendline, this will clear to challenge yearly lows of 0.7603, reached on January 27. Once surpassed the next stop would be 0.7600, ahead of August’s 2011 low of 0.7069.
For a bullish reversal, buyers need to clear the triangle’s resistance trendline at around 0.7772, ahead of 0.7800. further gains lie overhead at the 50-day SMA at 0.7841, before testing the 100-day SMA at 0.7911.
