EUR/CHF rises to its highest level since 1 April

EUR/CHF H1 28-04

The franc has been weakening over the past few sessions, with strong hints of the SNB stepping into the market as seen with sight deposits data yesterday.

Over to EUR/CHF, we are seeing price race higher over the past hour after the climb since yesterday back above the key hourly moving averages.

Buyers are in near-term control and the upside move yesterday was limited by resistance around 1.0580 but price is now breaking that to post near four-week highs close to 1.0600.

In the long-term, I would view the pair as being a sell on rallies but again the key thing to watch is SNB intervention and related short covering.
