The USD/CHF advances for the second consecutive day and is about to trim Monday’s losses amid a mixed market mood as portrayed by European and US equities fluctuating between gainers and losers as global bond yields fall. In the FX space, safe-haven peers remain the laggards, while the greenback remains defensive against most peers but the Swiss franc. At the time of writing, the USD/CHF is trading at 0.9333.

Meanwhile, US Treasury yields remain downward pressured, with the 10-year benchmark note down from 2.788% highs to 2.672%, a headwind for the greenback, as the US Dollar Index, a gauge of the buck’s value vs. six currencies, edges down 0.25%, sitting at 100.069.

USD/CHF Price Forecast: Technical outlook

Overnight, the USD/CHF was subdued In the Asian Pacific session, but in the European one, it edged up above the R1 daily pivot, lying at 0.9353, forming a tweezer-top candlestick chart pattern, which dragged the USD/CHF down towards the 100-hour simple moving average (SMA) at 0.9332.

Meanwhile, the USD/CHF daily chart depicts the pair as upward biased, but it has remained consolidated in the 0.9300-70 area since April 6, amidst the lack of a catalyst.
