  • CAD/CHF reversed brief dip below 0.74 handle to close above on Friday's trade.
     
  • The pair is trading in a narrow range on the day, holds above 0.74 handle.
     
  • Price has broken below major trendline support at 0.7445 and we see further weakness on charts.
     
  • The pair is extending consolidation on the day, as rising trade war fears keep support for the haven franc.
     
  • Technical indicators are biased lower and we see scope for test of 78.6% Fib at 0.7361.
     
  • On the flipside, retrace above major trendline (support turned resistance) will see some upside.
     
  • We see bearish invalidation on break above 100-DMA.
