On the daily chart, the USD/CHF pair has been facing strong resistance near 0.9180 with multiple top formations.
The descending trendline from the high of 0.9274 made on July 2 acts as a strong resistance barrier for the bulls.
Being said that, If price moves higher, it could immediately test the August 19 high at 0.9207.
A sustained move above the psychological 0.9200 mark, would extend the upside movement at the 0.9235 horizontal resistance level.
The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) trades just near the midline with a neutral stance. Any uptick in the MACD would encourage the bulls to continue to march higher towards July 7 high at 0.9267.

USD/CHF bears would seek the next target at the 0.9075 horizontal support level.
