• USD/CHF climbs but retreats at the 100-day EMA at 0.9644.
• The 4-hour chart illustrates that the USD/CHF might print a leg-down before resuming upwards.
• A break above the 100-day EMA to open the door for 0.9700.

The pair currently trades last at 0.96473.

The previous day high was 0.9598 while the previous day low was 0.9553. The daily 38.2% Fib levels comes at 0.9581, expected to provide support. Similarly, the daily 61.8% fib level is at 0.957, expected to provide support.

The USD/CHF rallied in the North American session, bolstered by broad US dollar strength and risk aversion, so traders seeking safety bought the greenback, to the detriment of the Swiss franc. At the time of writing, the USD/CHF is trading at 0.9642 above its opening price by 0.60%.

From a daily chart perspective, the USD/CHF is upward biased, testing the 100-day EMA at 0.9644, breaking on its way north the 50-day EMA at 0.9629. USD/CHF traders should be aware that the price is testing the August 3 high at 0.9651, which, once cleared, would pave the way towards the 0.9700 figure, ahead of the July 14 daily high at 0.9886.

Reviewing the four-hour scale, the USD/CHF broke from consolidation around the 0.9574-0.9605 area, exposing the major to higher exchange rates, and on its way, north printed a daily high at 0.9658. Nevertheless, selling pressure entering in August 3 highs sent the pair sliding towards current price levels.

Even though the USD/CHF retreated, it opened the door for further gains. Still, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) entering overbought conditions suggests the pair might record a leg-down towards the 200-EMA at 0.9619 before resuming the uptrend.

Therefore, the USD/CHF first resistance would be the R3 daily pivot at 0.9652. The break above will expose the R4 daily pivot at 0.9680, followed by the August 22 daily high at 0.9704.
