"Based on financial data from Treasury, we estimate that the government will be unable to pay all of its bills as early as Feb. 15. We have less time to solve this problem than many realize."
- Steve Bell, Bipartisan Policy Center (based on Bloomberg)


Pair's Outlook
USD/CHF sharply depreciated yesterday, as the price reached the 55-day SMA at 0.9265, but the bearish pressure from the Euro was too big to resist, therefore the pair slipped to the lower part of the Bollinger bands, almost touching the weekly S1 at 0.9115. It is likely to see a retest of the 20-day SMA at 0.9176 soon, as it was overcome so quickly. Still, the question "When will the bearish trend end in USD/CHF?" is the main one.

Traders' Sentiment
The Swiss Franc loses even more of its share in SWFX market, since 88% of positions are long, supporting the U.S. Dollar, and only 12% are short. Pending orders segment notably increases bullish sentiments, as 68% are long and 32% are short.
