USD/CHF Price Forecast: Drops further below 0.8500 post US data

  • USD/CHF retreats 0.20%, testing support levels after US labor data fuels expectations of aggressive Fed rate cuts.
  • The pair eyes a retest of the year-to-date low of 0.8400, with further downside targeting 0.8332 and 0.8300.
  • For a bullish recovery, USD/CHF must clear the August 15 swing high at 0.8748.

The USD/CHF retreated late in the New York session, down 0.20%, as US jobs data revealed the labor market is cooling, which could warrant the Federal Reserve's (Fed) “aggressive” rate cuts. At the time of writing, the pair trades at 0.8447 after hitting a daily high of 0.8490.

USD/CHF Price Forecast: Technical outlook

USD/CHF's failure to clear the key resistance trendline around 0.8530-50 sponsored a leg-down on the pair. On its path toward the current exchange rate, the pair cleared the 0.8500 figure, tested today.

Momentum favors sellers, as the Relative Strength Index (RSI) shows. This could help refresh the year-to-date (YTD) low of 0.8400, hit on August 29.

If USD/CHF clears 0.8400, the next support would be last year’s low of 0.8332 before challenging 0.8300.

The USD/CHF pair must clear the August 15 swing high at 0.8748 for a bullish recovery.
