What can we expect from USDCHF for the new week and what happened on Friday?
USDCHF on Friday dropped -0.36% to 0.92570. Price is below 9-Day EMA while Stochastic is rising. For the week ending 2023-03-17, the pair rose 0.51% or 47.3 pips higher.
Looking ahead on Monday, USDCHF looks mixed as the pair is likely to consolidate above week low of 0.90974.
For the new week, our technical outlook is mixed. To see upside interest, we prefer to look at price breakout of week high of 0.93194 or at least consolidates above Weekly Pivot level of 0.92246. On the downside, we are looking at week low 0.90974 or 0.91298 (WS1) as immediate support level. USDCHF need to break on either side to indicate a short-term bias. A break above 0.93194 would suggest bullish bias after recent positive movement.
For the month of March, USDCHF is down by -1.72% or -161.7 pips lower.
