Analysis

The strong reversal to the upside on Tuesday has the USD/CHF in a strong position to challenge a major resistance cluster at 1.0361 to 1.0376.

This pair must clear this resistance zone or the current rally will fizzle.

Gann Angles

Major uptrending Gann angle support stopped the break on Tuesday and turned the market around.  

This angle from the 1.0110 (07-03-08) bottom is at 1.0270 today.

Downtrending resistance from the 1.0541 (06-13-08) top is at 1.0361.  Upside momentum may take this angle out, setting up a further rally to 1.0451.

Swing Charts

The main trend is up.  The main range is 1.0541 (06-13-08) to 1.0110 (07-03-08).  This main range has created a retracement zone at 1.0326 to 1.0376.  

The current close over the 50% price is an indication of strength.

Trading Ideas

Trend traders can wait for a pullback to 1.0270 or buy aggressively on a break out over the resistance cluster at 1.0361 to 1.0376.

Counter-trend traders are likely to sell a rally into this zone.

Today's direction and tone will be dictated by what happens at 1.0361 to 1.0376.
