Forecast of the USD/CHF price: technical perspective

The USD/CHF has fallen during the last six days of negotiation, prepared to test the figure of 0.7900 in the short term. The bassists continued to exert down pressure on the torque, as indicated by the relative force index (RSI), which is approaching the overall territory but is maintained above the 20th mark, considered the most extreme.

If the USD/CHF falls below 0.7900, clear the way to test the minimum of September 2011 of 0.7710. Once surpassed, look for a proof of the monthly minimum of August 2011 of 0.7066.

On the other hand, if buyers recover 0.8000, this opens the door to a recovery. The first resistance zone would be the minimum of April 21, now converted into resistance, in 0.8038, followed by 0.8050. With more force, the next supply area will be 0.8100, followed by the 50 -day SMA at 0.8217.
