What moves USD/CHF

USD/CHF depends on demand for the franc as a safe currency, on the Swiss National Bank and on the Fed. What matters now and what is coming.

The main things that move the price

The safe haven

On anxious days money often goes into the franc, and it strengthens with no news from Switzerland at all.

The Swiss National Bank

The bank decides on its rate once a quarter and dislikes a franc that is too strong. What it says about the currency matters as much as the rate.

The dollar

Swiss figures are few, so the American side moves the pair more often: Fed decisions, US inflation and jobs.

When it is most active

The pair moves in European and New York hours, and it often answers the same US figures as EUR/USD, the other way round.

Major releases ahead

The next high-impact releases over two weeks. What each means for the market is on its card.
