FxWirePro- USDCHF Trade idea

The currency pair showed a minor pullback despite weak US PPI data.  It hit an intraday high of 0.88581 and is currently trading around 0.88534. The intraday bias appears to be bearish as long as the resistance 0.9000 holds. 

Recent US economic figures show a contrasting picture: initial unemployment claims totaled 220,000, a shade less than the forecasted 225,000, and continuing claims declined as well, signaling that the labor situation is okay. However, the Producer Price Index (PPI) remained unchanged for February, less than expected, the first in seven months, as year-over-year gains declined also. This decline in producer prices reflects an easing of inflationary pressure but also kindles concerns of potentially suppressing demand, inducing uncertainty in economic growth and subsequent policy measures
