USD/CHF Technical Analysis August 17, 2011

The USD/CHF pair had a bullish day on Tuesday as session saw a retest of the bullishness on Monday. The Swiss National Bank is set to make an announcement on Wednesday as to their intentions to devalue the Franc. This has the markets on edge, and traders are simply not willing to buy the Franc because of this. The truth is that this pair needed a pullback from the massive downtrend, and this move makes a lot of sense. Of course, the announcement on Wednesday will be crucial, so any positions before seeing that and more importantly the reaction – would be foolish as this is likely to rock the markets back and forth.
