Traders Reduce Risk in Stocks and Sell USD CHF

The USD CHF broke on the weakness in the U.S. stock market.  Today's break in the stock market was caused by profit-taking in the financial stocks and the perception that consumers will be cutting back on spending.

Traders reduced their demand for risk and reward by paring back positions in the USD CHF.

Some traders feared a return to the bearish conditions seen earlier in the month.  This encouraged a return to a safer currency like the Swiss Franc.  

Look for the start of a pullback to 1.0207 to 1.0161.  The first line of support is 10250.  The main resistance is at 1.0391 to 1.0396.

Forex (off-exchange foreign currency futures and options or FX) trading involves substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for every investor. The value of currencies may fluctuate and investors may lose all or more than their original investments. Risks also include, but are not limited to, the potential for changing political and/or economic conditions that may substantially affect the price and/or liquidity of a currency. The impact of seasonal and geopolitical events is already factored into market prices. Prices in the underlying cash or physical markets do not necessarily move in tandem with futures and options prices. The leveraged nature of FX trading means that any market movement will have an equally proportional effect on your deposited funds and such may work against you as well as for you.

Loss-limiting strategies such as stop loss orders may not be effective because market conditions may make it impossible to execute such orders. Likewise, strategies using combinations of positions such as "spread" or "straddle" trades may be just as risky as simple long and short positions.
