USD/CHF Price Forecast: Consolidates near 0.9050 after whipsawing on Trump’s rhetoric

  • USD/CHF fluctuates sharply, soaring then retracting to open levels after Trump proposes tariffs.
  • Mixed technical outlook; pair rebounds from key support but can't sustain above 20-day SMA.
  • Future hinges on breaking 20-day SMA to revisit January highs, with risks below 0.9040.

The USD/CHF whipsawed during Tuesday's session after US President Donald Trump hinted that he could impose tariffs on Mexico and Canada as he was signing a tranche of executive orders on day 1. Therefore, the pair rose sharply towards its daily peak of 0.9114, before reversing course near its opening price at 0.9062, and is virtually unchanged.

USD/CHF Price Forecast: Technical outlook

The USD/CHF dipped towards a three-month-old support trendline near 0.9049 before buyers moved in, pushing the exchange rate past the 20-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) of 0.9085 and the 0.9100 figure. Nevertheless, the pair retreated below the former, near its opening price.

If USD/CHF resumes its uptrend and clears the 20-day SMA, the bulls will remain hopeful of pushing the exchange rate toward the January 13 high at 0.9200. A decisive break would signal that bullish momentum is growing, opening the door to testing last year’s peak of 0.9224.

Conversely, if USD/CHF dips below 0.9040, sellers could test the 100-day SMA at 0.9000. A decisive break will expose the 50-day SMA at 0.8960.

Swiss Franc FAQs

The Swiss Franc (CHF) is Switzerland’s official currency. It is among the top ten most traded currencies globally, reaching volumes that well exceed the size of the Swiss economy. Its value is determined by the broad market sentiment, the country’s economic health or action taken by the Swiss National Bank (SNB), among other factors. Between 2011 and 2015, the Swiss Franc was pegged to the Euro (EUR). The peg was abruptly removed, resulting in a more than 20% increase in the Franc’s value, causing a turmoil in markets. Even though the peg isn’t in force anymore, CHF fortunes tend to be highly correlated with the Euro ones due to the high dependency of the Swiss economy on the neighboring Eurozone.

The Swiss Franc (CHF) is considered a safe-haven asset, or a currency that investors tend to buy in times of market stress. This is due to the perceived status of Switzerland in the world: a stable economy, a strong export sector, big central bank reserves or a longstanding political stance towards neutrality in global conflicts make the country’s currency a good choice for investors fleeing from risks. Turbulent times are likely to strengthen CHF value against other currencies that are seen as more risky to invest in.

The Swiss National Bank (SNB) meets four times a year – once every quarter, less than other major central banks – to decide on monetary policy. The bank aims for an annual inflation rate of less than 2%. When inflation is above target or forecasted to be above target in the foreseeable future, the bank will attempt to tame price growth by raising its policy rate. Higher interest rates are generally positive for the Swiss Franc (CHF) as they lead to higher yields, making the country a more attractive place for investors. On the contrary, lower interest rates tend to weaken CHF.

Macroeconomic data releases in Switzerland are key to assessing the state of the economy and can impact the Swiss Franc’s (CHF) valuation. The Swiss economy is broadly stable, but any sudden change in economic growth, inflation, current account or the central bank’s currency reserves have the potential to trigger moves in CHF. Generally, high economic growth, low unemployment and high confidence are good for CHF. Conversely, if economic data points to weakening momentum, CHF is likely to depreciate.

As a small and open economy, Switzerland is heavily dependent on the health of the neighboring Eurozone economies. The broader European Union is Switzerland’s main economic partner and a key political ally, so macroeconomic and monetary policy stability in the Eurozone is essential for Switzerland and, thus, for the Swiss Franc (CHF). With such dependency, some models suggest that the correlation between the fortunes of the Euro (EUR) and the CHF is more than 90%, or close to perfect.
