Downtrend resuming after midweek push · RSI 32 · price 0.78099

Lower high printed, breaking week's rising structure.

Pair carved a week high at 0.78756 into Thursday's NY session before sellers stepped in, driving an impulsive break of the rising structure today and a sweep down to 0.77953 before stabilising near 0.78099. Price is back below both EMA(20) and EMA(50) with RSI(14) pressed into the low 30s, and the rebound stalled exactly at the 0.78254 prior-support-turned-resistance. Headlines around US-Iran de-escalation and Trump's blockade-lift comments drove the swiss-franc-side flow into the late-NY drop.

Support: 0.78099, 0.77953, 0.78216

Resistance: 0.78254, 0.78471, 0.78756

What it said to watch

  • H1 close back above 0.78254 rejection level would neutralise the downside read
  • Loss of 0.78099 session low opens the path to retest 0.77953 spike low
  • Further Iran-deal headlines into the weekend could materially shift CHF flow

19:01 UTC

Downtrend, fresh week low · RSI 32 · price 0.78099

Lower highs since Wed peak, breakdown through 0.7830.

USDCHF rolled over from Wednesday's 0.78756 week high and has printed a sequence of lower highs through the NY session, with the 0.78471 prior support shelf giving way to a flush down to 0.77953. Price now sits well below EMA20 and EMA50 on H1, RSI(14) at the low-30s reflecting sustained downside pressure rather than a single spike. Friday's Trump headline on lifting the naval blockade aligned with the acceleration lower as risk-on flows pressured the franc cross.

Support: 0.77953, 0.78099

Resistance: 0.78248, 0.78471, 0.78756

What it said to watch

  • H1 close back above 0.78248 intraday HH would neutralise the breakdown read
  • Loss of 0.77953 week low confirms continuation lower
  • Iran-US headline flow remains the dominant driver into the weekend

18:00 UTC

Downtrend, sharp NY session selloff · RSI 32 · price 0.78137

Broken range, lower-low printed.

USDCHF capped at the 0.78756 week high yesterday and has rolled over hard through NY hours, slicing the 0.78471 shelf and printing a 0.77953 spike low before stabilising near 0.7813. Price now sits well below both EMA(20) and EMA(50) with RSI(14) in the low 30s, confirming the H1 downtrend extension. Trump's Hormuz blockade-lift comments and softer USD tone drove the bulk of the move during the NY session.

Support: 0.78099, 0.77953, 0.78215

Resistance: 0.78282, 0.78471, 0.78756

What it said to watch

  • H1 close back above 0.78282 lower high would neutralise the breakdown
  • Sustained trade below 0.77953 spike low extends the lower-low sequence
  • Ongoing US-Iran headline flow could materially shift this read

17:01 UTC

Downtrend, sharp impulse lower · RSI 32 · price 0.78137

Lower-high in place, breaking weekly range floor.

USDCHF has rolled over hard during the NY session, slicing through 0.7830 and the week's prior low at 0.78099 to print a session low at 0.77953 before stabilising near 0.7813. The move accelerated alongside the Trump naval blockade headline and dovish Fed Bowman comments on stalled inflation progress, taking price decisively below both EMA(20) and EMA(50) on H1. RSI(14) is pinned in the low 30s with a mild bullish divergence forming on the latest probe lower.

Support: 0.77953, 0.78099

Resistance: 0.78282, 0.78471

What it said to watch

  • Hourly close back above 0.78282 rejection would neutralise the breakdown
  • Sustained trade below the 0.77953 session low extends the downtrend
  • Reclaim of EMA20 near 0.78471 would invalidate the lower-high structure
  • Further US-Iran headline flow remains the dominant catalyst

16:00 UTC

Downtrend resuming after midweek push · RSI 32 · price 0.78172

Lower high printed, breaking below week's range floor.

Price rolled over from the 0.7899 double top earlier in the week and has now broken the week's range floor near 0.7833, with the latest NY session driving a spike low to 0.7795 before a modest recovery. EMA(20) and EMA(50) on H1 are stacked overhead and RSI(14) sits in the low 30s, consistent with the downtrend resuming. Trump's Hormuz/blockade headlines and Fed Bowman's hawkish inflation remarks drove the NY-session volatility.

Support: 0.78136, 0.77953

Resistance: 0.78471, 0.78992

What it said to watch

  • An H1 close back above 0.78471 prior pivot would neutralise the lower-high read
  • Failure to hold 0.77953 spike low opens room toward the figure
  • Weekend headline risk around Iran-US naval blockade developments could gap the open

15:00 UTC

Downtrend resuming after midweek bounce · RSI 31 · price 0.78142

Lower high printed, breaking back below range.

Price has rolled over from Wednesday's 0.7899 peak with two consecutive NY sessions delivering downside, and the latest bars have broken the 0.7820 shelf that capped Friday's Asia range. Pullbacks since yesterday's NY session have been sold below the EMA(20), and RSI(14) is pressing 31 without divergence so far. Move comes against a backdrop of Fed Bowman/Paulson sticky-inflation rhetoric, but USDCHF is ignoring it and trading the franc-bid side.

Support: 0.78099, 0.7800

Resistance: 0.78471, 0.78992

What it said to watch

  • Hourly close back above 0.78471 prior high would neutralise the lower-high read
  • Loss of 0.78099 session low opens path toward the 0.7800 psych handle
  • Geopolitical Iran headline risk over the weekend could gap the open

14:00 UTC

Downtrend resuming after midweek bounce · RSI 28 · price 0.78148

Lower-high stamped, breaking week's lows.

USDCHF spent Monday-Tuesday grinding higher into the 0.7899 weekly peak before sellers stepped in around the soft German CPI print and weaker US wholesale inventories, and price has since unwound the entire week's rally. NY hours today produced a clean lower high at 0.78471 and the pair has now broken the session low at 0.78136 with RSI(14) at 28 — momentum and structure both pointing down.

Support: 0.78136, 0.7800

Resistance: 0.78471, 0.78992

What it said to watch

  • Hourly close back above 0.78471 today high neutralises the lower-high read
  • Loss of 0.78000 psych opens room toward prior-week base
  • RSI deeply oversold — bounce risk into 0.78471 if buyers defend the figure

13:01 UTC

Downtrend resuming after midweek rally · RSI 28 · price 0.78148

Lower-high printed at 0.7899, breaking back through week's mid-range.

Price topped at 0.7899 during the NY session yesterday and has unwound the entire midweek rally, with the current bar printing a fresh session low at 0.7813. The break back below EMA20 and EMA50 confirms a lower-high, and softer-than-expected German CPI plus weak Canadian GDP this morning have not lifted the dollar. RSI(14) is stretched at 28 into the week's lower range.

Support: 0.7813, 0.7795, 0.7825

Resistance: 0.7847, 0.7899

What it said to watch

  • Loss of 0.7813 opens path toward the 0.7795 week low
  • Reclaim of 0.7847 EMA20 zone neutralises the lower-high read
  • RSI near 28 with price at session lows — risk of mean-reversion bounce into NY close

12:00 UTC

Pullback within broader uptrend · RSI 36 · price 0.78266

Rejection from 0.7899, lower-highs developing.

Price rallied from 0.7808 on Monday to a week high at 0.7899 mid-week before rejection capped the move and unwound the gains. Since then, lower-highs have formed below 0.7847 and the latest NY session has pressed back down to the session low at 0.7826, with price now trading below both EMA20 and EMA50. RSI(14) at 36 reflects the corrective tone but no divergence yet.

Support: 0.78265, 0.7808, 0.7833

Resistance: 0.78471, 0.7899

What it said to watch

  • Break of 0.7826 session low opens path back to 0.7808 week low
  • H1 close back above 0.7847 session high neutralises the lower-high sequence
  • Middle East headlines flagged by BoE Bailey remain a tail risk for CHF flows

11:00 UTC

Pullback within broader uptrend · RSI 43 · price 0.78358

Lower highs forming after 0.7899 rejection.

Price rallied from the 0.7814 week open up to a 0.7899 week high during yesterday's NY session before getting firmly rejected, dropping 60 pips in two hours and now consolidating around 0.7835. The H1 has carved out clear lower highs since that rejection, with price trading below both EMA20 and EMA50 and RSI(14) cycling in the 35–50 band. Bailey's BoE commentary and broader risk headlines this morning have not produced a decisive directional push.

Support: 0.7833, 0.78308, 0.7814

Resistance: 0.7847, 0.78992

What it said to watch

  • H1 close above 0.7847 intraday LH would neutralise the pullback read
  • Break of 0.7830 session low opens room toward the 0.7814 week open
  • Sustained reclaim of EMA20 needed to argue the rejection is done

10:00 UTC

Uptrend rolling over after 0.7899 rejection · RSI 44 · price 0.78431

Lower high printed, pulling back to mid-range.

USDCHF climbed steadily from the 0.7808 week low through Monday and Tuesday's NY session, peaking at 0.7899 before sellers stepped in hard during yesterday's NY hours, dropping price back through the EMA(20) at 0.7854. The pair is now consolidating around 0.7840 with RSI(14) at 43, having printed bearish divergence into the 0.7899 high. Pullback has held the 0.7833 swing low into Asia.

Support: 0.7833, 0.7814

Resistance: 0.7854, 0.7876, 0.7899

What it said to watch

  • H1 close below 0.7833 swing low opens path to 0.7814 week low
  • Reclaim of 0.7854 ema20 would neutralise the lower-high read
  • Failure at 0.7876 prior high on any bounce confirms the rollover

09:01 UTC

This-week uptrend, momentum cooling · RSI 43 · price 0.78431

Higher highs into 0.7899, pulling back to mid-range.

USDCHF rallied from the 0.7808 week low through the London-NY sessions, topping at 0.7899 yesterday before sharp rejection dragged price back below EMA20 and EMA50. Friday's session has consolidated 0.7833-0.7847 with RSI near 43, the FXStreet desk flagging bearish pressure above 0.7830. Structure remains a this-week uptrend but momentum has clearly cooled after the rejection.

Support: 0.7833, 0.78156, 0.7808

Resistance: 0.78471, 0.7867, 0.78992

What it said to watch

  • H1 close below 0.7833 session low opens path to week-open at 0.7816
  • Reclaim of 0.7867 prior swing would re-engage the week's uptrend
  • Loss of 0.7808 week low confirms a lower-low and breaks the structure

08:00 UTC

Uptrend, momentum fading · RSI 41 · price 0.78344

Higher highs then sharp rejection.

Strong drive higher from Monday's open into the 0.7899 week high, but two failed pokes through 0.7899 left a double top before NY session yesterday sold it back to the session low at 0.78330. Price now trades below both EMA(20) and EMA(50) with RSI(14) at 41, marking the first real break of the week's uptrend structure.

Support: 0.7833, 0.7814, 0.7847

Resistance: 0.7899, 0.7845

What it said to watch

  • Hourly close below 0.78330 session low confirms lower-low and opens 0.78140 week low
  • Reclaim of 0.78470 prior pivot and EMA(20) would neutralise the rejection read
  • German states' CPI prints due later today could add CHF volatility

07:01 UTC

Rotation lower after midweek peak · RSI 40 · price 0.78376

Lower high formed Thursday, range developing.

Pair rallied from Monday's 0.7808 base into a 0.7899 week high during Thursday's NY session before a sharp rejection wiped the gains, printing a lower high and dragging price back under both EMA(20) and EMA(50). Asia has consolidated in a tight 0.7833–0.7846 shelf into Friday's London open, with RSI(14) flat near 40 and ATR(14) compressing to ~7 pips. The 0.7845 EMA(20) area is now acting as the immediate ceiling for the bounce.

Support: 0.78345, 0.7808, 0.7825

Resistance: 0.7845, 0.7875, 0.7899

What it said to watch

  • H1 close back above 0.7845 EMA(20) reopens the 0.7875 area
  • Break of 0.7834 thu ny low exposes the 0.7825 prior shelf and then 0.7808 week low
  • German state CPI prints later today could inject EUR-led USD volatility

06:00 UTC

Uptrend stalling, pullback into mid-range · RSI 41 · price 0.78412

Higher highs into 0.7899, sharp rejection back to 0.7840.

Pair pushed from the Monday 0.7808 low up to 0.7899 yesterday before a clean rejection during the NY session sliced 60 pips back into the range. Price is now consolidating around 0.7840 below EMA(20) at 0.7854, with RSI(14) at 41 confirming the loss of upside momentum. Structure of the week is still constructive while 0.7820 holds, but the sharp NY reversal has flattened the trend on this timeframe.

Support: 0.7834, 0.7820, 0.7808

Resistance: 0.7854, 0.7876, 0.7899

What it said to watch

  • H1 close back above 0.7854 (ema20) would reassert the week's uptrend
  • Loss of 0.7820 week pivot opens the path to 0.7808 week low
  • Rejection from 0.7876 prior swing on any bounce would confirm lower highs

05:01 UTC

Uptrend, momentum cooling · RSI 42 · price 0.78412

Higher highs into rejection, pulling back to mid-range.

USDCHF spent the week grinding higher off the 0.7808 Monday low, with each NY session extending the move into Thursday's 0.78992 peak before a sharp rejection sliced through EMA20 during the US afternoon. Price has since stabilised around 0.7840 in the Asian session, with RSI(14) at 41 showing bearish divergence against the late-week high. The week's uptrend structure is intact but momentum has cooled and price now sits below EMA20 for the first time since Tuesday.

Support: 0.78345, 0.7808, 0.7841

Resistance: 0.78992, 0.7852

What it said to watch

  • H1 close back above EMA20 near 0.78520 would re-engage the week's uptrend
  • Loss of wed low at 0.78345 opens room toward the 0.7808 week low
  • Swiss Franc headlines around Middle East risk premium remain a session driver

04:00 UTC

Uptrend, pullback in progress · RSI 42 · price 0.78409

Higher highs and higher lows, retracing from week high.

USDCHF spent the week grinding higher off the 0.7808 low, peaking at 0.78992 during the NY session yesterday before a sharp rejection wiped out two sessions of gains. Price now sits below EMA(20) with RSI(14) in the low 40s after printing a bearish divergence at the week high. The 0.78345 prior swing is the immediate pivot — holding it keeps the broader uptrend structure intact.

Support: 0.78345, 0.7820, 0.7808

Resistance: 0.7854, 0.78992

What it said to watch

  • H1 close below 0.78345 prior swing opens path back to 0.78200 week open
  • Reclaim of 0.78540 ema20 area would neutralise the pullback
  • Sustained move under 0.78200 week open breaks the week's higher-low sequence

03:00 UTC

Rally rejected, pulling back · RSI 38 · price 0.78388

Lower-high printed below 0.7900, retracing toward range mid.

USDCHF rallied from Monday's 0.7808 base to a 0.78992 week high during yesterday's NY session, then rejected sharply with two pushes failing at the same zone forming a double top. Price has since unwound through both EMA20 and EMA50, and Asia is holding the session low around 0.78326 after losing the 0.78645 lower high. RSI(14) at 38 reflects the momentum flip from the post-rally peak.

Support: 0.78326, 0.78142, 0.7808

Resistance: 0.78992, 0.78645

What it said to watch

  • H1 close back above 0.78645 lower high would neutralise the rejection read
  • loss of 0.78326 session low exposes the 0.78142 wk-open base and 0.78080 week low
  • thin Asia liquidity — any USD headline can stretch ATR fast

02:00 UTC

Uptrend stalling, pulling back · RSI 40 · price 0.78376

Higher highs into 0.7899, sharp rejection.

USDCHF climbed steadily from Monday's 0.7808 low into a 0.7899 week high during yesterday's NY session before a sharp rejection sliced through EMA20 and EMA50, dropping price 60 pips into Asia. Pair now consolidates just above the 0.78326 session low with RSI(14) sub-40, marking a clear character change after four sessions of higher highs. The 0.78482 zone — where the prior breakout originated — has flipped to resistance on the way down.

Support: 0.78326, 0.78142, 0.7808

Resistance: 0.78482, 0.78992

What it said to watch

  • H1 close back above 0.78482 prior break neutralises the rejection
  • Loss of 0.78326 session low opens 0.78142 wk pivot
  • Ongoing US-Iran headline risk could whipsaw CHF flows

01:01 UTC

Uptrend stalling, pullback in progress · RSI 38 · price 0.78376

Higher-highs broken, retracing from 0.7899 swing.

Price ran from the 0.7808 week low into 0.7899 across Wednesday and Thursday's NY sessions, with the impulse capped at 0.78992 before a sharp rejection back through EMA(20). The current Asia session is consolidating just above the 0.78345 swing low, RSI(14) at 38 after diverging at the highs. Geopolitical tape (US–Iran headlines) sits behind the bid that drove the week's rally.

Support: 0.78345, 0.7821, 0.7808

Resistance: 0.78481, 0.78992

What it said to watch

  • H1 close below 0.78345 swing low confirms a lower-low and opens 0.78210 week open
  • Reclaim of 0.78481 EMA20 area would neutralise the pullback read
  • Thin Asia liquidity makes the current range unreliable; NY session sets the next directional cue

00:00 UTC

Uptrend rolling over · RSI 38 · price 0.78387

Higher highs into 0.7899 swept, pullback to 0.7835.

Price climbed steadily since Monday's open from 0.7808 to a 0.7899 week high during yesterday's NY session, then was rejected sharply with a 60+ pip drop into the late NY hours. Current 0.7838 print sits below EMA20 and EMA50 with RSI at 38, the first time momentum has turned this week, and the broken 0.7848 shelf now caps. Swing low at 0.7835 is the line dividing pullback from a deeper unwind.

Support: 0.78345, 0.7814, 0.7808

Resistance: 0.7848, 0.7899

What it said to watch

  • Hourly close below 0.7835 swing low confirms a lower-low and opens the path to 0.7814 week low
  • Reclaim of 0.7848 broken shelf would neutralise the rejection read
  • Tokyo CPI cooler than April could weigh on USD into Asia
  • Ongoing US-Iran headlines remain a risk to USD pricing
