USD/CHF Retreats Below 0.8100 as Tweezer Top Forms
The USD/CHF pair dropped below 0.8100 on Thursday, snapping the dollar's six-day winning streak as US Treasury yields fell despite hotter-than-expected core PCE inflation data. A 'tweezer top' pattern signals potential further downside.
The USD/CHF pair declined on Thursday, trading below the 0.8100 level as the US dollar stalled its recent rally. The pair fell roughly 0.34% during the North American session, pressured by a pullback in US Treasury yields.
The decline comes after a six-day advance, and technical traders are pointing to a 'tweezer top' formation on the daily chart, which often suggests a reversal. Fundamental headwinds include a drop in yields despite a red-hot US Core PCE inflation release, which normally would support the greenback.
Market participants are now watching whether the pair can hold above key support levels or if further losses are in store. A sustained break below 0.8100 could open the door to the next support zone.
