Fundamental overview:
USD/CHF is expected to consolidate in a lower range as markets await 0830 GMT Swiss National Bank interest rate decision, SNB is expected to leave its monetary policy unchanged. USD/CHF is undermined by broadly weaker USD undertone (ICE spot dollar index last 88.23 versus 88.67 early Wednesday). But USD/CHF losses are tempered by the franc sales on soft CHF/JPY cross.
Technical comment:
