  • USD/CHF has been in a trading range since early May.  
  • USD/CHF found support a few pips before 0.9788 June 7 swing low and is currently trying the reverse the bear leg of the last few days. USD/CHF is consolidating in a triangle compression pattern. Additionally, it is finding support with the 100 and 200-period simple moving averages which are now starting to flatten. Upside targets are located at 0.9900 and 0.9950 figure.  
  • A bear breakout below 0.9820  would invalidate the bullish bias.
