TECHNICAL VIEW: From technical standpoint, USDCHF is currently resisted around 0.9055 with investors currently waiting for the next catalyst to drive prices. On the economic calendar, the FOMC meeting would be on the wire later today by 11pm, with fresh insight into Fed’s policy stance. A hawkish tone would likely strengthen the USD and if that be the case, analyst expects the resistance to be broken with potential target around 0.9078. Conversely, a dovish stance from the Fed’s minute would likely cause the pair to tank with potential target to the downside around the major support zone of 0.8986 but the psychological level of 0.9000 would likely be respected before further decline.
KEY LEVELS FOR THE WEEK: For the rest of the week, if the bullish momentum is sustained given the data from economic calendar and market sentiments, analyst predicts the resistance levels around 0.9078 and 0.9150 to be respected. Meanwhile the place of retracement and further breakout of these levels are not ruled out. Conversely, if the bears take the center stage, then analyst expects 0.8972 and 0.8921 to be respected with potential retracement in view. Whereas further breakout of these levels isn’t ruled out.
