This image is no longer relevant

Fundamental overview:
USD/CHF is expected to trade in a volatile fashion amid thin liquidity after plunging as low as 0.7360 on Thursday - its record low in three and a half years - after Swiss National Bank expectedly cancelled the minimum exchange rate of CHF1.20 per euro, lowered the interest rate on sight deposit account balances by 0.5 percentage points to 0.75%, and moved the target range for the three-month Libor further into the negative territory, to between -1.25% and 0.25% from the current range of between 0.75% and 0.25%. USD/CHF is undermined by the franc demand for cross trades versus major currencies. But USD/CHF downside is supported by the USD bargain hunting, possible SNB intervention as the Swiss central bank in its statement said it will continue to take account of the exchange rate in formulating is monetary policy in future and, if necessary, it remains active in the foreign exchange market to influence monetary conditions.

Technical comment:
