The next target is the 50% midpoint at 0.79014, with a critical level at the 200-day moving average of 0.79187. Maintaining support above 0.7868–0.7878 is essential for sustaining bullish momentum." datetime: "2026-05-19T13:43:05.000Z" locales: - [zh-CN](https://longbridge.com/zh-CN/news/286924364.md) - [en](https://longbridge.com/en/news/286924364.md) - [zh-HK](https://longbridge.com/zh-HK/news/286924364.md) --- # USDCHF trades to new highs going back to April 30 The USDCHF is extending sharply to the upside after buyers leaned against a strong technical support zone during the Asia-Pacific session. The pair found willing buyers near a confluence of support defined by the **100-hour moving average** and the **100-day moving average**, helping to solidify the bullish bias and launch the latest rally higher. The move higher initially ran into resistance near a swing area between **0.7868 and 0.7878**. Sellers briefly defended that zone and forced a modest corrective move lower, but downside momentum quickly faded. Buyers stepped back in, pushed the pair back above the swing area, and turned that former resistance zone into a new support target. With the pair now trading above **0.7868–0.7878**, the focus shifts toward the next major upside target at the **50% midpoint of the move down from the March 31 high at 0.79014**. A break above that midpoint level would increase the bullish momentum further and have traders looking toward the next key technical target. That next upside objective comes in at the **200-day moving average at 0.79187**. The USDCHF has traded below its 200-day moving average since breaking beneath it on April 8. Since that break, multiple corrective rallies have failed before seriously testing the level. As a result, the 200-day moving average now becomes a critical barometer for the broader bias. A move above the level — and more importantly, the ability to stay above it — would give buyers more confidence and shift the longer-term technical picture more firmly in their favor. For now, the key support area for buyers comes in between **0.7868 and 0.7878**. Staying above that zone keeps buyers in firm control and maintains the bullish momentum heading into the next technical tests higher. ### Related Stocks - [FXF.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/FXF.US.md) ## Related News & Research - [Cham Swiss Properties Raises CHF 100 Million via Seven-Year Bond](https://longbridge.com/en/news/280354170.md) - [Swiss Franc Hits 11-year High](https://longbridge.com/en/news/273552568.md) - [naoo posts FY25 net profit of CHF 0.3 million; revenue CHF 6 million](https://longbridge.com/en/news/289289576.md) - [CADJPY Breaks Trendline Support as Deeper Correction Unfolds](https://longbridge.com/en/news/288675329.md) - [Burckhardt Compression Sees Fiscal Year 2026 Sales Between CHF 900 Mln And CHF 1000 Mln](https://longbridge.com/en/news/288663983.md)
