USDCHF-- I see potential (edited)USDCHF had tried to re-enter a major support/resistance area for the third month in a row, and with less than 24 hours for price to trade higher or lower before the monthly candle closes, it sits relatively close to where it sat 30 days ago.
The data shows an inability to obtain control of price movement throughout the month, and a strong selling presence on the resistance end of the zone shown. After the most recent attempt at breaking through the monthly resistance, price has fully retraced that impulse to the golden pocket, where price is currently trading.
I think there is a good opportunity here to watch price action and trade any signs of increasing volume that begin breaking key intraday support and rejection levels. I never am truly biased, but I anticipate a move downward, creating a healthy red candle to end the month...
It is worth mentioning that from a long term perspective it seems as though the pair still has room to push upward creating a more complete retracement than is currently formed right now. A full retracement would bring price all the way back up to 1.06, potentially higher.
As noted, price has been attempting for quite some time to break above and confirm the 1.0-1.618 level as support. After multiple failed attempts, it appears as though buying pressure has begun to subside now that candle closes are starting to stray from our support/resistance zone.
Until price can push past the .99000 vicinity, I will only be entertaining bearish opportunities.

USDCHF can move lower? 🦐USDCHF on the 4h chart is trading at the recent highs.
The price creates a double top over a minor resistance at the 0.98500 level.
How can I approach this scenario?
I will wait for the EU market open and check for a possible break below the support area .
In that case, i will look for the Plancton's strategy to be satisfied and set a nice short order

USD CHF - FUNDAMENTAL DRIVERSUSD
FUNDAMENTAL OUTLOOK: BULLISH
BASELINE
Hawkish Fed policy remains a key driver for Dollar strength. With headline inflation >9%, the Fed has been pressured to tighten policy aggressively, hiking rates by 75bsp at their June meeting, and continuing with Quantitative Tightening. However, as a result of increasing fears of a growth slowdown (as evidenced by recent econ data), STIR markets have repriced lower, and now expects a terminal rate of 3.5% (versus >4% before the June FOMC meeting). Even though lower STIR pricing should be negative for the USD, the growth concerns has sparked further risk off concerns and have seen safe haven flows into the USD. The USD is usually inversely correlated to the global economy and trade, appreciating when growth & inflation slows and depreciates when growth & inflation accelerates. Further expectations of a cyclical slowdown and continued tight monetary policy expectations has seen investors shun risk assets and even bonds (usually considered a safe haven), and the USD has been a key benefactor of the rush to safety in recent weeks. The current high inflation has meant that bonds have not been sought as a safe haven with a strong stock-to-bond correlation, and this has caused big bond outflows. With bonds not fulfilling its usual save haven role the USD has been the haven of choice. The bias remains bullish , but with stretched tactical and CFTC positioning we don’t want to chase the USD higher right now.
POSSIBLE BULLISH SURPRISES
As aggressive Fed policy has been supporting the USD, any incoming data that sparks further aggressive hike expectations, or comments from the FOMC that signals even more aggressive policy could trigger bullish reactions. As the cyclical outlook continues to weaken, the USD’s safe haven status matters. Any incoming data that exacerbates fears of recession and triggers a big flush in risk assets and triggers a rush to safety should be positive for the USD. Further outflows in US bonds means more USD safe haven appeal. So, watching key triggers for further upside in bond yields like rising commodity prices, rising inflation expectations and upside surprises in inflation data could also trigger further USD bullish reactions.
POSSIBLE BEARISH SURPRISES
Even though the USD has been trading like a safe haven, the worse growth data continues to get, the higher the likelihood of a ‘Fed Put’ in the months ahead. Thus, extremely bad growth data could trigger short-term bearish reactions in the USD. The USD is trading close to cycle highs while aggregate CFTC positioning is close to prior highs which acted as local tops. Thus, stretched positioning could make the USD vulnerable to short-term mean reversion, but finding strong enough bearish catalysts has been tricky recently. With a lot already priced for the Fed, it won’t take much to disappoint on the dovish side. Any FOMC comments that suggests more concern about the economy than inflation could trigger bearish reactions in the USD, but with inflation so high any major dovish pivots seem unlikely for now.
BIGGER PICTURE
The fundamental outlook for the USD remains bullish as long as the Fed stays aggressive and cyclical concerns put pressure on risk assets. But we want to be mindful that lots has been priced for the USD, and as growth deteriorates, it could start to weigh on the USD if markets start pricing in a ‘Fed Put’, even though current inflation suggests any dovish pivot seems a while away. Also, as the safe haven of choice any further recession focused downside in risk assets could continue to prove supportive for the USD. In the short-term though, with positioning in mind, we prefer much deeper pullbacks for new med-term USD longs and would look for short-term catalysts that offer short-term bearish sentiment-based trades.
CHF
FUNDAMENTAL OUTLOOK: WEAK BULLISH
BASELINE
The CHF has been supported in recent months as STIR markets have steadily priced in higher interest rates for Switzerland, as well the SNB’s reluctance to intervene in the currency markets to try and weaken the CHF. At their June meeting, the SNB took a very aggressive policy step by hiking rates with 50bsp and removing their previous classification that the CHF is ‘highly valued’. Unlike other central banks, the SNB has chosen to try and tackle inflation before it runs rampant by hiking rates aggressively. Their hike in June was the first hike since 2007, and if the bank follows through with a hike in September it will mean Switzerland will have positive interest rates for the first time in almost a decade. There is scope for further CHF upside in the months ahead with 4 supporting drivers. SNB’s hawkish tilt, the bank’s acceptance of a stronger CHF with less intervention, negative underlying risk sentiment driven by the global cyclical slowdown, rising inflation . The SNB did note that they are willing to be active in the foreign exchange market to ensure appropriate monetary conditions which means too much CHF strength could get the wrong attention from the bank.
POSSIBLE BULLISH SURPRISES
Any incoming data (especially inflation coming up early on Monday) or SNB comments that causes markets to price in even more aggressive policy from the bank could trigger bullish reactions in the CHF. As a risk sensitive currency, and catalyst that causes big bouts of risk off sentiment could trigger bullish reactions in the CHF. The more aggressive markets think the ECB will be with incoming hikes, the more aggressive they will be for the SNB. Thus, data that trigger hawkish ECB expectations could also be supportive for the CHF.
POSSIBLE BEARISH SURPRISES
The SNB has not been as active in trying to devalue the CHF through sight deposits as they have been in recent years. With the bank now on a hiking cycle, any drastic appreciation could spark some intervention and would be a bearish catalyst. As a risk sensitive currency, and catalyst that causes big bouts of risk on sentiment could trigger bearish reactions in the CHF. Further lower repricing of ECB hikes could trigger downside in the CHF as well, and the biggest dovish risk for the currency is a big surprise miss on any incoming CPI data.
BIGGER PICTURE
The SNB surprised with a 50bsp hike and signalled, that unlike other central banks, they will not get behind the curve. Apart from a hawkish central bank , we also have the economy on a steady footing, as well as less risk of intervention as SNB’s Jordan said they no longer see the CHF as highly valued (there is of course risk that they could intervene if the CHF appreciates too much too fast). This means the bias for the CHF is bullish and we’re looking for dips as CHF for buying opportunities.
USDCHF-- potential for movement from hereUSDCHF had tried to re-enter a major support/resistance area for the third month in a row, and with less than 24 hours for price to trade higher or lower before the monthly candle closes, it sits relatively close to where it sat 30 days ago.

After the most recent attempt at breaking through the monthly resistance, price has fully retraced that impulse to the golden pocket, where price is currently trading.

I never am truly biased, but I anticipate a move downward, creating a healthy red candle to end the month.
It is worth mentioning that from a more long term perspective it seems as though the pair still has room to push upward creating a more complete retracement than is currently formed.

Update on USD/CHF, 4hr timeframeOn Sunday I shared an idea on USD/CHF that we're looking on going short for this pair. So this is how it's currently going, it indeed respected my anticipated analysis even though we haven't met our overall target yet.
Hopefully it will push down to our targeted area before the market closes since it's Friday.
USDCHF Potential Bearish ContinuationOn the H4, with price breaking the bullish channel , moving along the descending channel and crossing over the the ichimoku indicator, we have a bearish bias that price might drop from our sell entry at 0.96522, which is in line with the 61.8% fibonacci retracement to our take profit at 0.95835, which is in line with 78.6% fibonacci retracement . Alternatively, price may head for stop loss at 0.97346 where the overlap resistance is.

USDCHF H1: Bearish outlook seenOn the H1 time frame, prices facing bearish pressure from its descending trend line and resistance zone at 0.9720 where we could see further downside to our support zone at 0.9630. Failure to hold below the resistance zone at 0.9720 could see prices push higher to the next resistance zone at 0.9800. Stochastic facing bearish pressure from its resistance at 94.27 as well, supporting the bearish bias.
USDCHF on a double top 🦐USDCHF on the 4h chart is trading at the recent highs.
The price creates a double top over a minor resistance at the 0.98500 level.
How can I approach this scenario?
I will wait for the EU market open and check for a possible break below the support area .
In that case, i will look for the Plancton's strategy to be satisfied and set a nice short order
