Flipping the Franc: Scalp shorting USD/CHF

43
snapshot

We are short USDCHF, 0.89225 entry

As always, we like to keep it clean and simple, with technicals and analysis that's easy to see and understand. Let's get into it:

- Wave 5 exhaustion on mult timeframes
- Overbought StochRSI on 2h
- Head and shoulders pattern on 4h (a classic bearish reversal signal)

We see a short-term reversal, looking to scalp for 10 or so pips.

As you may know, the Swiss Franc often strengthens during periods of global economic uncertainty due to its safe-haven status. If current geopolitical tensions or economic concerns persist, investors may flock to the CHF, leading to a depreciation of the USD/CHF pair.

Be alert.
Trade green.

DECEMBER 15 UPDATE

Closed at 0.89162, +$527

This was a scalp so going for quick profits.

Although some technicals suggest a bit more room to drop, 50/200 SMAs are green so we are trading against the trend, and so did not want to get greedy.

Some people say to never trade against the trend.
Seasoned scalpers beg the differ. Trending moves make tradeable reversals every day.

Be Alert.
Trade Green.
