USD/CHF bounces off 0.9562/49

USD/CHF failed to push through and close below an uptrend support line at 0.9562/49 and thus it has delayed attainment of 0.9429/0.9397, where bulls are expected to take over and reverse current downward tendency.

USD/JPY to remain range-bound

Advancement of USD/JPY was rejected by an initial resistance at 78.44, signifying lack of impetus the currency pair currently possesses.
