Trade closed: target reached
BPCHF is reaching the daily neckline (reversed H&S). We cannot determine whether it will break the neckline without correcting lower.

The potential retracement is a re-test of 1.2600. We may have the ability to re-enter upon a daily close above the neckline but it greatly depends on the market. We cannot enter at any breakout.

It is a fairly difficult decision but we decided to close GBPCHF long trade at market price (1.2695).
