Technical analysis of USD/CHF for August 19, 2015

USD/CHF is expected to trade with a bearish bias below 0.9800. The pair remains under pressure below the key resistance at 0.9800. Meanwhile, the intraday RSI indicator is lacking upward momentum. In this outlook, as long as 0.9800 is not surpassed, the risk of the break below the first downside target at 0.9715 remains high. The second downside target is set at 0.9660 (August 12's low).

Trading recommendations:

The pair is trading below its pivot point. It is likely to trade in a lower range as long as it remains below the pivot point. Short positions are recommended with the first target at 0.9715. A break of that target will move the pair further downwards to 0.9660. The pivot point stands at 0.98. In case the price moves in the opposite direction and bounces back from the support level, it will move above its pivot point. It is likely to move further to the upside. According to that scenario, long positions are recommended with the first target at 0.9860 and the second target at 0.9940.

Resistance levels: 0.9860 0.9940 0.9995
