USD/CHF daily chart

  • The USD/CHF pair trades near 0.9930 at the early Asian session on Friday.
  • The quote recently bounced off the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement of its September – November 2018 upside but is struggling around 200-day simple moving average (SMA) level of 0.9920.
  • Should the pair successfully cross 0.9920, 0.9960 can act as immediate resistance ahead of highlighting 0.9990 confluence comprising 50-day SMA and 23.6% Fibonacci.
  • During the pair’s additional rise above 0.9990, 1.000 round-figure and support-turned-resistance line around 1.0020 can challenge buyers targeting 1.0055.
  • On the downside break of 0.9900 Fibonacci figure, 0.9855, 0.9800 and 0.9780 could please sellers before challenging them with 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level of 0.9765.
  • Additionally, 0.9700 and 0.9640 might become Bears’ favorites after 0.9765.
