Weak oil prices and the strong Greenback have helped the USD/CAD to climb back towards the September highs.
After flirting with the parity line, the USD/CHF is climbing once again, looking set to break the 1.0100 level.
After mixed trading yesterday, the yen pairs are uniformly on the back foot. The EUR/JPY and GBP/JPY are building experiencing follow-on selling, while the USD/JPY reverses yesterday’s gains.

Trade Idea
Momentum remains with the USD/CHF as it flips back towards the highs. With the need for a Swissy safe haven diminishing, we could see further buying pressure from here.
