On Monday, the USD/CHF registered more than 0.20% gains, with buyers regaining control and achieving a daily close above 0.9100. This was sponsored by high US yields, which underpinned the Greenback, though it posted modest gains. As the Tuesday Asian session begins, the major trades at 0.9104, virtually unchanged.
From a technical perspective, the pair has reversed its course after diving to a multi-week low of 0.8988, though buyers lifted the USD/CHF and achieved a daily close above 0.9060. That opened the door for a bullish continuation. But momentum has faded so far, as shown by the Relative Strength Index (RSI), which remains bullish but has a flat slope.
If bulls lift the USD/CHF above 0.9150, that will exacerbate a rally to 0.9200. Once surpassed, the next stop would be the year-to-date (YTD) high at 0.9224.
Conversely, if sellers moved in and dragged the USD/CHF exchange rate below 0.9100, that would pave the way to test the 50-day moving average (DMA) at 0.9049. Further losses lie at 0.9000 and 0.8988.
