Swiss Franc: Tight range expected against US Dollar - UOB

United Overseas Bank (UOB) strategist Quek Ser Leang notes USD/CHF reversed sharply from 0.8382 to close at 0.8286, with intraday price action expected to edge lower toward 0.8245 while staying above 0.8225.

Swiss Franc: Tight range expected against US Dollar - UOB

United Overseas Bank (UOB) strategist Quek Ser Leang anticipates a tight range for the Swiss Franc against the US Dollar. The USD/CHF currency pair dropped from 0.8382 to 0.8286, with further declines expected to 0.8245, but not falling below 0.8225. In a one to three week timeframe, UOB sees the pair trading within 0.8245 to 0.8365 after recent upside momentum waned.

Over a one to three month period, a rebound is still expected, though not strong enough to surpass the July peak. On a 24-hour view, USD climbed to 0.8382 last Thursday, before plummeting to 0.8291 before Friday's close at 0.8286. While downward momentum increased, it was not enough to signal a sustained decline. Today, UOB analysts predict USD will further decline to 0.8245, with resistance at 0.8300. A breach of 0.8310 would suggest that downward pressure has eased.
