The forecast for the USD/CHF started to turn bearish after this currency pair advanced into its resistance area. After the Tenkan-sen and the Kijun-sen turned sideways, bullish momentum is fading. Adding to downside pressures is the descending Ichimoku Kinko Hyo Cloud. The CCI is nearing extreme overbought territory and shows a negative divergence, suggesting a trend reversal may follow.
