Momentum indicators have turned sharply bullish with MACD breaking the zero line to the upside and RSI heading into the buying channel. 

 

 

 

USD/CHF

 

The USD/CHF pair has rejected the 0.993 resistance line. On several previous occasions sellers have returned at this resistance area. Momentum indicators remain in bullish territory although their trajectories have flattened. The pullback may be a pause in a longer-term rally.

Momentum indicators are mixed with MACD remaining in bullish territory despite a downward trajectory and RSI flattening just below the default line.
