USD/CHF rejected at 0.91 handle

FXstreet.com (Guatemala) - USD/CHF wasn’t able to penetrate the 0.91 handle on the first attempt since the decline in December.

USD/CHF is being contained by the descending resistance line from July’s high. The 100 DMA at 0.9090 is proving a tough line to secure for the pair when the unit bounced strongly. The calendar is stacking up to offer an excuse for the bulls to take the unit on should the US continue to offer positive sentiments for a recovery and a continuation of the tapering programme. Eyes on NFP's and FOMC.
