Closing in on 200-day SMA as uptrend extends

  • USD/CHF keeps rising on US Dollar strength
  • It is close to meeting resistance from the 200-day SMA.

USD/CHF extends its short and medium-term uptrend and rises up to within spitting distance of the 200-day Simple Moving Average (SMA). 

USD/CHF Daily Chart 

It will probably encounter tough resistance at the 200 SMA which could pullback as a result. 

Given the technical analysis theory that “the trend is your friend”, however, it is likely to eventually resume its uptrend. 

A decisive break above the 200 SMA at 0.8818 would probably result in a continuation up to the next target at 0.8873 (July 30 swing high).  

The Relative Strength Index (RSI) momentum indicator is not yet overbought suggesting the pair has more upside potential before it gets overextended.
