The long term trend has already completely turned around and is now bullish. The double bottom reversal pattern in early May signaled this and the Higher High above March\u2019s top at 0.8951 sealed the deal.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Fibonacci Retracement levels based on the Low at 0.8698 and major swing highs from 6<sup>th<\/sup> October (0.9454), 7<sup>th<\/sup> November (0.9249) and 21<sup>st<\/sup> January (0.9155) indicate a major confluence between 0.8973 and 0.8987. If USD\/CHF rallies and stabilizes above this confluence and the 200-Day SMA, prices could aim toward 0.9155\/65 in the coming month.<\/p><div id=\"inves-932362778\" class=\"inves-in-content inves-entity-placement\"><hr style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd;\">\r\n<div id=\"inpost_ads_header\">\r\n<p style=\"font-size:10px; float:left; color:#666;\">Free Reports:<\/p><\/div>\r\n<div id=\"inpost_ads\"> \r\n<p style=\"font-size:15px; float:left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/1ApBOV\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/investmacro.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/graph_techs_PD.png\" align=\"left\" width=\"80\"  height=\"55\"\/><\/a>\r\n\t     <a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/1ApBOV\"><b><u>Get Our Free Metatrader 4 Indicators<\/u><\/b><\/a> - Put Our Free MetaTrader 4 Custom Indicators on your charts when you join our Weekly Newsletter<\/p><br><br>\r\n<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<p style=\"font-size:15px; float:left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/f3RrHX\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/investmacro.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/cot_pie_80.png\" align=\"left\" width=\"80\"  height=\"55\"\/><\/a>\r\n\t    <a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/f3RrHX\"><b><u>Get our Weekly Commitment of Traders Reports<\/u><\/b><\/a> - See where the biggest traders (Hedge Funds and Commercial Hedgers) are positioned in the futures markets on a weekly basis.<\/p><br><br>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<hr style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd;\">\r\n<br><\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Daily Stochastic remains in overbought territory, albeit without any bearish price action signals and in light of the recent U.S. strength there is no reason to short blindly before a high is confirmed.
