The best method to identify a classic “price action reversal” is for an hourly candle to close, such as a pin bar, a doji, an outside or even just an engulfing candle with a higher close. You can exploit these levels or zones by watching the price action that occurs at the given levels.
USD/CHF Analysis
This pair continues to behave very technically, again respecting a key level, this time the resistance at 0.9761 which was hit and rejected during the Asian session. This lessens the likelihood of another failed retest providing a successful short trade during the forthcoming session, but it remains a possibility. The longer the new bullish trend line below remains in place without being hit, the more supportive a touch is likely to be when it finally happens.
There is nothing due today concerning either the USD. Regarding the CHF, the Chair of the Swiss National Bank will be speaking at 7:30am and 9:45am London time.
