USDCHF chart analysis

On Thursday, USDCHF retreated to a new weekly low at the 0.84000 level. After its formation, the pair initiated a recovery above 0.84500 and the EMA 50 moving average. During this morning’s Asian trading session, we saw a continuation to the bullish side and a rise to the 0.84850 level. Here we come across the EMA 200 moving average and need its support for further continuation above. Potential higher targets are 0.85000 and 0.85500 levels.

For a bearish option, we need a negative consolidation and pullback below the EMA 50 and 0.84500 levels. With that step, USDCHF will form a new daily low and confirm that it is under pressure to continue its retreat. Potential lower targets are 0.84000 and 0.83500 levels. Bullish consolidation is currently dominating and we expect a recovery by the end of the day.
