TO NOTE: The Swiss franc is a safe haven currency, meaning in times of market stress or high volatility the franc will appreciate, conversely, in a low volatility market when equities are moving higher, the franc will under perform. The Swiss franc and Japanese yen are considered the two most popular safe haven currency trades.

ALSO: The USD/CHF tends to have a negative correlation with the EUR/USD and GBP/USD currency pairs. This is due to the positive correlation of the euro, Swiss franc and the British pound.

After so many charts looking for clues I read this article on "why the swiss franc is so strong" and note that on January 15, the Swiss National Bank (SNB) unexpectedly removed the peg of 1.20 francs per euro. So let's look at EUR/CHF

One CONSIDERATION and one question: The US dollar is closer to the peg then the Euro. But will the Euro touch the blue line if the dollar touches it again?
