(Please click on the forex chart thumbnail to enlarge)
10/31/2011 Forex Trading Technical Analysis (FXpath.com) – EUR/CHF (daily chart) as of Monday (10/31/2011) has continued its fall towards the significant 1.2000 psychological support level after having turned down two weeks ago from an important long-term downtrend resistance line extending from the December 2009 high and the key 1.2400 price region. After having hit the high above 1.2400 two weeks ago, price action broke down below a steep uptrend support line extending from the early August low just above parity (1.0000). The fact that the pair both respected the long-term downtrend resistance line as well as almost simultaneously broke down below the counter-trend uptrend support line, stands as a significant bearish trend indication. With upside resistance continuing to reside around the noted long-term downtrend resistance line, the key downside support target to watch continues to reside around the 1.2000 support/resistance psychological level.
