FxWirePro -USDCHF daily outlook

The pair tumbled sharply after dismal US inflation data. US inflation slowed from 9.1% YOY to 8.5% YoY, below expectations of 8.7%. The demand for safe-haven assets like the Swiss franc increased due to geopolitical tension between China and Taiwan alos putting pressure on the pair at higher levels. USDCHF hits a low of 0.93933 and is currently trading around 0.94047.

According to the CME Fed watch tool, the probability of a 75 bpbs rate hike in Sep dropped to 42.5% from 68% a day ago.

The primary level to Watch – is 0.9430. Any convincing surge above confirms intraday bullishness. A jump to 0.9480/0.95480/0.9600 is possible.

 Bearish scenario-

Intraday support – 0.9380.  Break below that level will take the pair to 0.9300/0.9260.
