USD/CHF Price Forecast: Technical Outlook

Price action suggests USD/CHF is consolidating below 0.7900, with buyers gathering momentum, as the pair cleared the 100-day SMA at 0.7834 and the Relative Strength Index (RSI) turned bullish.

On further strength, USD/CHF can test the 0.7900 mark. Once surpassed, the next stop would be 0.8000, ahead of the April 6 daily high of 0.8018. A breach of the latter will expose the March 31 swing high at 0.8042, followed by 0.8100.
