FxWirePro: EUR/CHF hovers around 1.16 handle, focus on German CPI data for further impetus

  • EUR/CHF hovers around 1.16 handle as traders await German inflation data due at 12:00 GMT. 
     
  • German CPI is expected to rise 0.4 percent m/m in July from June's print of 0.1 percent.
     
  • The pair has retraced from lows of 1.1567 hit last week and is holding above 50-DMA support at 1.1585.
     
  • Technical studies on daily charts still support weakness. Decisive break below 50-DMA could see test of 61.8% Fib at 1.15.
     
  • On the flipside, 110-EMA is immediate resistance at 1.1605 ahead of 21-EMA at 1.1613. Breakout at 21-EMA could see further upside.
     
  • Bullish continuation only on breach above daily cloud and 200-DMA resistance.

Support levels - 1.1585 (50-DMA), 1.1540 (50% Fib), 1.15 (61.8% Fib)
