USD/CHF Technical Analysis: Remains capped below one-month-old descending trend-line

   “¢   The pair extended overnight rejection slide from the vicinity of a short-term descending trend-line hurdle, extending from 14-month tops set in July.

   “¢   Given the pair has held below important hourly moving averages (50, 100 and 200-period), a subdued USD demand exerted additional downward pressure for the second straight session.  

   “¢   A follow-through selling has the potential to drag the pair back towards testing a short-term horizontal support, forming a part of a descending triangle on the daily chart.

   “¢   A convincing break through the mentioned trend-line barrier would negate any near-term bearish bias and open room for any further near-term appreciating move.
