Analysis
The GBPCHF plunged 750+ pips to end the previous session at 1.7953, and the pair may face increased selling pressures over the week as investors continue to curb their appetite for risk. After reaching a high of 1.8976 at the beginning of November, the pair slipped to a low of 1.7436 on 11/13, and has held within the broad range over the last two weeks. Fading demands for carry trades paired with the interest differential between the Swiss franc and the British pound continues to favor a bearish outlook for the pair. Over the remainder of the trading session, we may see the pair work its way down towards yesterday’s low of 1.7855, but the divergence from the 120 SMA suggest that may see a slight retracement over the next two trading sessions.
