USD/CHF is expected to trade in a higher range as the bias remains bullish. The pair broke below its 20-period and 50-period moving averages. The relative strength index is below its neutrality level at 50. Nevertheless, a support base has formed around 0.9915, which should limit the downside potential. Even though a continuation of consolidation cannot be ruled out, its extent should be limited. The US dollar continued to strengthen against most major currencies. It gained versus the euro for a fourth straight session, the longest winning streak since March, after European Central Bank President Mario Draghi hinted at no tapering of the central bank's asset purchases.

As long as 0.9915 is not broken, look for a further upside toward 0.9970. A break above this level would call for a further advance toward 1.

Resistance levels: 0.9970, 1.0000, 1.0075

Support levels: 0.9895, 0.9870, 0.9850
