FXStreet (Mumbai) – The offered tone on the CHF once again gathered pace in Europe, pushing the USD/CHF higher and closer to its highest level since August 12.
Resistance at 0.9844
The spot is within touching distance from the resistance at 0.9844 (Sep 25 high). The bid tone on the pair appears strong enough to chew through offers around 0.9844 and print 2-1/2 month high. The negative action in the stock markets is doing little to avoid the drop in the safe haven CHF.
Ahead in the US session, the durable goods reports could influence the fed rate hike bets and accordingly affect the demand for the US dollars.
