The Relative Strength Index (RSI) indicates that momentum has shifted in favour of buyers. With both price action and the RSI providing confirmation, the path of least resistance for USD/CHF remains to the upside.

At 0.8300 lies the first level to watch. A break would bring the 15 October high of 0.8354 into view, ahead of the 14 October swing high at 0.8395. Beyond that, attention would turn to 0.8400 and then the 12 May 2025 high of 0.8476.

Should a bearish reversal develop, Monday’s low at 0.8232 would provide initial support for USD/CHF. The 50-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) at 0.8202 comes next, ahead of 0.8200. A break below this area would open the way to the 100-day SMA at 0.8143.
