USD/CHF has likely formed a bearish Head and Shoulders (H&S) reversal pattern on the 4-hour chart, which, if valid, indicates a probable decline is on the cards for the pair.

The H&S is composed of a peak, the “head” (H) and two shoulders either side (S). A break below the neckline at the base of the pattern confirms a decline lower. The pattern is a bearish reversal sign.

On USD/CHF the neckline is at around 0.8797. The initial target for the pattern is at 0.8703, the 61.8% Fibonacci extension of the height of the pattern extrapolated lower (red line labelled 0.618 on chart).

Volume has declined during the formation of the H&S (red dashed line), further enhancing the validity of the pattern.
