USD/CHF is now testing the weekly 0.89800 support, in line with 61.8% Fibonacci retracement and 78.6% Fibonacci extension. The daily chart shows that price is now holding below the key daily 0.92300 support-turned-resistance, and has also broken below the ascending trendline support-turned-resistance. The weekly 0.89800 support level is a key level to watch.
On the H4 chart, we can see that price is now retesting the weekly 0.89800 support level, in line with 78.6% Fibonacci retracement and 61.8% Fibonacci extension, and is making a sideways movement in the market. We also note that price is holding below the Ichimoku cloud resistance, showing bearish pressure in line with our analysis. In this scenario, a break and close below the key 0.89800 support would see price swing towards the next weekly 0.87600 support level. Otherwise, price could also pull back to retest the Ichimoku cloud resistance if the market was to enter a sideways movement.
Areas of consideration:
- The 0.89800 weekly support is a key intraday level to watch as price makes a sideways movement.
- Price is facing bearish pressure as it holds below the Ichimoku cloud resistance.

- Technical indicators across all timeframes confirm bullish momentum
