| Swiss Franc Mar Swiss Franc has fired NR7 and Inside Day signals for today. The NR7 signal tells us to expect range expansion and a pickup in volatility. The Inside Day signal is fired when the day's trading occurs within the range of the prior day. A subsequent breakout of an inside day's range typically points the way of the next trend move. Cycle Indicators have moved into a region where short term cyclical bottoms often form, but if Tuesday's .6227 low is broken we could see a significant move to the downside. Trade the break of yesterday's .6255 high to .6230 low range with a stop and reverse on the opposite side as the entry. Price action relative to today's .6243 Daily Pivot level may provide clues for earlier entry. Strength above implies a topside breakout while weakness below implies a break to the downside. | |
