USD/CHF Rises Above Parity

USD/CHF rose through the parity level and struck fresh 1-week highs as the Swissy is among the worst performers on Monday.

The Swiss franc has been under pressure amid increasing speculation the SNB could take preemptive action to limit any post ECB fallout. ECB is due to decide on monetary policy on Thursday.

USD/CHF rose to a daily high of 1.0011, but found resistance ahead of last week’s peak of 1.0037. At time of writing, the pair was trading at 1.0003, up 0.71% on Monday.
