09:01 UTC

Downtrend, momentum slowing · RSI 48 · price 0.77839

Lower highs into mid-week, basing late.

USDCHF has trended lower since the weekly open near 0.7830, printing a series of lower highs through the London and NY sessions mid-week and tagging a week low at 0.77620 in Friday's NY hours. Price has based since then around 0.77750 with a second low holding above the prior, and the current Asia/early-London session is pushing back into the EMA20 near 0.77940. RSI(14) has lifted from oversold without a new price low, leaving a bullish divergence read against the downtrend backbone.

Support: 0.7762, 0.7775

Resistance: 0.7794, 0.78075, 0.7820

What it said to watch

  • H1 close above the ema20 at 0.77940 would challenge the lower-high sequence
  • Reclaim of 0.78075 (fri high) needed to neutralise the downtrend
  • Loss of 0.77750 session low reopens the 0.77620 week low
  • US CPI later this week is the dominant catalyst for this pair

08:01 UTC

Downtrend, momentum stalling · RSI 47 · price 0.77833

Lower highs into range floor.

USDCHF has bled lower since Tuesday's NY session, printing a sequence of lower highs from 0.78425 down to last Friday's 0.77616 week low. Price is rebounding off that base into the Asia session, with RSI(14) lifting off oversold but still capped below EMA20 near 0.77950. Geopolitical risk-off flows (US-Iran, Hormuz) are keeping CHF bid even as the dollar tries to stabilise.

Support: 0.77616, 0.77693

Resistance: 0.77952, 0.78086, 0.78199

What it said to watch

  • Hourly close above 0.77952 (ema20) needed to challenge the prior high at 0.78086
  • Break of 0.77616 week low extends the downtrend
  • Trump-Xi summit headlines later this week could shift the risk tone

07:01 UTC

Downtrend, momentum slowing · RSI 48 · price 0.77783

Lower highs since Monday, base forming near 0.7765.

Persistent downtrend off Monday's 0.7820 high with each London session printing a fresh lower high into the EMA(20). Price has based around 0.7765 over the last two sessions and RSI(14) is curling up against flat price, a mild bullish divergence. Structure stays heavy unless the EMA(20) cap at 0.7795 gives way.

Support: 0.7762, 0.7770, 0.7750

Resistance: 0.7795, 0.7808, 0.7820

What it said to watch

  • H1 close above 0.7795 (ema20) neutralises the downtrend read
  • Break of 0.7762 week low extends the lower-high sequence
  • Reclaim of 0.7808 prior swing would invalidate the consolidation cap
  • Trump China visit Wed-Fri may inject USD headline risk this week

06:01 UTC

Downtrend, basing attempt · RSI 54 · price 0.77915

Lower-highs into 0.7760 support, bounce in progress.

Pair has trended lower since Monday's 0.7842 weekly open, carving lower-highs through the week with the bulk of the move coming in NY hours on Wednesday and Thursday. The 0.7762 week low has been retested twice without follow-through, with the second test showing bullish RSI divergence, and price has now reclaimed EMA20 into the new week's Asia session. ECB de Guindos dovish comments and rejected US-Iran peace proposal have helped USD find a bid against CHF overnight.

Support: 0.7762, 0.7771, 0.7782

Resistance: 0.78075, 0.7820, 0.7842

What it said to watch

  • Hourly close back below 0.7782 EMA20 puts the week low back in play
  • Break above 0.7807 prior high opens path back to 0.7820 week high
  • Failure at 0.7762 confirms continuation of the downtrend

05:01 UTC

Downtrend, momentum slowing · RSI 55 · price 0.77942

Lower highs into a base near 0.7762.

Price has trended lower since Monday's open near 0.7843, carving lower highs through the week before basing into Friday's NY close around 0.7762, the week low. The Asia session has lifted off that base with a mild bullish RSI divergence, but EMA20 around 0.7797 is now overhead and capping the recovery. Iran-truce headlines fading has supported USD into the new week, leaving a tight range below the ema20 with the week low untested.

Support: 0.7762, 0.7770

Resistance: 0.7797, 0.78075, 0.7832

What it said to watch

  • H1 close above ema20 at 0.7797 opens the path to the Fri high at 0.78075
  • Break of the week low at 0.7762 reasserts the downtrend
  • Holding above the prior swing at 0.7770 keeps the double bottom read intact

04:01 UTC

Downtrend, momentum stabilising · RSI 48 · price 0.77902

Lower highs into a base near 0.7765.

USDCHF has trended lower all week from the 0.7848 print on Monday, posting a clean sequence of lower highs into a base around 0.7762 — last week's low. Price is grinding back toward the EMA20 near 0.7797 after Friday's NY session bottomed at 0.7762, with RSI(14) lifting off the mid-30s back to neutral. The current bounce is corrective in nature unless the prior high at 0.7807 gives way.

Support: 0.7762, 0.7770

Resistance: 0.7797, 0.78075, 0.7832

What it said to watch

  • Hourly close above 0.7807 prior high opens path to the EMA20 reclaim
  • Loss of 0.7762 week low confirms continuation of the downtrend
  • 0.7832 week high is the structural pivot for trend reversal

03:01 UTC

Downtrend, momentum easing near lows · RSI 47 · price 0.77885

Lower highs into a week-low base.

USDCHF has trended lower since Monday's open, carving a clean sequence of lower highs from 0.7847 down to last Friday's 0.7762 week low during NY hours. Asia-session bounce has reclaimed 0.7785 but price still trades below both EMA(20) and EMA(50), with the descending H1 trendline capping every pullback. RSI(14) has lifted from oversold while price held the 0.7762 base — a mild bullish divergence, though structure remains lower-high until proven otherwise.

Support: 0.7762, 0.7771, 0.7745

Resistance: 0.7797, 0.7808, 0.7832

What it said to watch

  • H1 close above 0.7797 EMA20 and the descending trendline neutralises the lower-high read
  • Loss of 0.7762 week low extends the downtrend toward the 0.7745 round level
  • Trump China visit May 13–15 headlines could inject USD volatility this week

Support: 0.7762, 0.7771, 0.7714

Resistance: 0.7789, 0.7807, 0.7832

What it said to watch

  • Hourly close back above 0.7789 ema20 would soften the lower-highs read
  • Loss of 0.7762 week low extends the downtrend toward 0.7714
  • Trump China visit May 13–15 and Iran/Hormuz headlines could inject CHF safe-haven flows

01:01 UTC

Downtrend, momentum slowing · RSI 47 · price 0.77786

Lower highs into range floor.

USDCHF has trended lower since Monday's open, with a clean leg down through last NY session printing the week low at 0.77616 before a corrective bounce.

Lower highs into range base.

USDCHF has trended lower since Tuesday, leaking from 0.7847 to a week low at 0.7762 with each NY session adding to supply. Price is consolidating just under EMA20 around 0.7789 after Friday's bounce, with RSI(14) basing in the low 40s and showing a mild bullish divergence against the lower low. The Iran-US ceasefire headlines over the weekend are the dominant macro driver into the Asia open.

Resistance: 0.7789, 0.78075, 0.7820

What it said to watch

  • Break of 0.77620 week low confirms continuation lower
  • Iran/Hormuz headline risk into Asia open could materially shift this read
