USD/CHF renews its intraday high near 0.9065 during early Easter Monday in Europe. In doing so, the Swiss Franc (CHF) pair extends the previous day’s recovery from a 22-month low while approaching a one-month-old support-turned-resistance surrounding 0.9075.

It’s worth noting that the bullish MACD signals join the corrective bounce off the multi-day low to lure USD/CHF buyers as they approach the previous support near 0.9075.

Even if the quote manages to stay firmer past 0.9075, downward-sloping resistance lines from March 26 and 15, respectively near 0.9095 and 0.9145, can check the USD/CHF buyers.

Even so, the Swiss currency pair buyers need to portray a successful upside break of the 100-bar Simple Moving Average (SMA), around 0.9160, to please the USD/CHF buyers.

Following that, 0.9225 and a late March swing high of around 0.9345 will be in focus.

On the flip side, multiple lows around 0.9035-30 can test the USD/CHF bears before recalling them to the driver’s seat. However, the 0.9000 psychological magnet may challenge the sellers afterward.

In a case where USD/CHF remains bearish past 0.9000, June 2021 low near 0.8925 may lure the sellers.
