Swissy
USDCHF wedge breakThe Swissy has broken out of consolidation, finishing Tuesday above wedge resistance. Pair had been trading sideways since February and bulls will be looking to capitalize on this development, pushing the pair higher over the coming days.
Initial resistance is a zone stretching from 9920 - 9960, with a break above there targeting parity and the 1.0040 - 1.0095 zone. Expect pair to find willing buyers on any interim weakness, with former resistance in the .9845 - 9810 zone acting as support.
USD/CHF close to a major breakoutHi traders,
I am watching this USD/CHf very close which I believe its very close to break this wedge that he is in since end of last year. A brake and CLOSE above 9830 will confirm that this pair is start a new 'breakout cycle' which will look very similar to the price action which we have seen on USDJPY in the last two days.
Thank you!
Trade of the day. Buy USDCHF. Oversold.This could be a very profitable trade.
The way I see it is that the price is oversold, dropping to fundamental support.
Now, this is important, if the SNB anticipates larger QE by the ECB, they will drop the interest rate further into negative territory. This could be a huge event as the SNB believes the currency is already severely overvalued.
The SNB will hit the market like they did a year ago with this announcement. I recommend buy stops with stop losses below long term support.
A long term trade that will 100% pay off. GuaranteedAs Swiss franc is exposed to events in Europe (high correlation to EUR) plus negative interest rate that will likely increase, ie becoming more expensive to store funds in CHF, Swiss banks will likely become less and less of a safe haven as other currencies become more attractive or even perhaps Gold. Also, don't forget with new tax and bank secrecy laws, Switzerland is becoming less and less a destination for offshore funds. In any case, Switzerland has a manufacturing sector to protect and preventing the CHF to increase further will be a job for the SNB.
On the other hands, the US economy is shaking off the winter blues and looks to increase rate in the next six months perhaps making it a destination for global funds as a carry trade.
