Its fluctuations were limited by 1.5751 and 1.5680. It is possible that the pair has started the peak formation at current highs, but the market activity is so low that this assumption could be easily challenged.

After its testing, the pair returned to the support level at 0.9220. This level continues to carry out its functions, confirming the continuing demand for the U.S. currency. If the bulls manage to defend the support, they will gain strength and confidence, which will allow them to break through the resistance and make the pair&#8217;s rate increase to 0.9307. In the USDCHF increases and consolidate higher, the outlook will be improved.
