The best method to identify a classic “price action reversal” is for an hourly candle to close, such as a pin bar, a doji, an outside or even just an engulfing candle with a higher close. You can exploit these levels or zones by watching the price action that occurs at the given levels.

USD/CHF Analysis

I wrote yesterday that this pair was now going to be very sensitive to market sentiment over the trade dispute. If the resistance at 1.0093 keeps holding, the price will become more likely to resume its downwards movement, so that is likely to be today’s pivotal point.

This was a good call as the resistance level at 1.0093 acted as the high of the day and the price fell after making a bearish reversal there after the London close.

It now looks as if bulls and bears are evenly balanced over the medium term so rejections of either 1.0093 or 1.0053 are likely to provide attractive reversal trade entry opportunities.

I have no directional bias on this currency pair today.There is nothing important due today concerning either the CHF or the USD.
