USD/CHF is slipping away from congestion resistance at 0.8100, with the immediate focus shifting back to support at 0.8050. Continuum Economics sees room for a break lower in both dollar- and franc-driven trade, with 0.8000 the next zone in view.

The USD/CHF pair is drifting lower as its test of congestion resistance at 0.8100 gives way and intraday studies turn down. That leaves the immediate focus back on support at 0.8050, in both USD- and CHF-driven trade.

Momentum points down

Daily studies are under pressure, and overbought weekly stochastics are turning down, which Continuum Economics reads as room for a break beneath 0.8050.

If that support goes, the focus turns to congestion around 0.8000 and the 0.8010 weekly low from 2 July. A rising weekly Tension Indicator could limit any initial tests in consolidation, the analysis adds.

What would turn it around

A close above 0.8100 would help stabilise price action, according to Continuum Economics. A further close above 0.8125/40 is needed to turn sentiment positive and confirm continuation of the January gains, with 0.8125 marking the November 2025 monthly high.
