USD/CHF Technical Analysis: H&S breakdown points to continuation of the bearish trajectory

   •  The pair remained under some selling pressure for the fourth consecutive session and dropped to near 2-1/2 month lows during the European trading session. 

   •  Today's downfall followed an overnight breakdown below an important neckline of a bearish head & shoulders chart pattern on the short-term chart. 

   •  Hence, an extension of the near-term downward trajectory, possibly towards retesting the very important 200-day SMA, now looks a distinct possibility. 

   •  However, oversold conditions on the 4-hourly chart, as depicted by RSI (14) warrant some short-term consolidation before the next leg of downside.
