The USDCHF currency pair continues to consolidate under selling pressure. Over the past five sessions, price action remained mixed, yet every upward attempt consistently met active selling. A Bearish Flag pattern has formed on the daily chart — a classic continuation setup suggesting a probable development of a downtrend. The 0.8255 level remains a key resistance, capping recovery attempts and limiting further upside potential. Today’s USDCHF trade idea proposes placing a pending Sell Limit order.
News sentiment for USDCHF shows a moderate dominance of negative expectations – 57% vs 44%. The risk-to-reward ratio exceeds 1:5. Potential profit at the first take-profit target is 255 points, and 442 points at the second, with possible losses capped at 80 points.

USDCAD trade idea
The USDCAD currency pair remains in a downward trend, yet prices have reached a support area near 1.3825, where the decline has slowed. The current price structure suggests a potential shift in direction and the beginning of an upward move. A breakout above the 1.3875 resistance will confirm the emergence of a bullish impulse. Once established above this level, the target will be 1.3975. Today’s USDCAD trade idea recommends placing a pending Buy Limit order.
