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
We have already had a bearish rejection of the resistance level identified at 0.9688 so it may be too late to take advantage of that level if it is reached against today. Caution should be used in attempting to short that level today.
The bigger picture is a long-term downwards trend which has lost conviction over recent days. Over the shorter-term, we have a slightly rising, very mildly bullish channel. There does not seem to be much opportunity beyond fading touches of the key levels nearby for modest profit.
There is nothing due today concerning either the CHF or the USD.
