Overview:
USD/CHF is consolidating with bearish bias after hitting near-nine-month low of 0.9073 on Thursday, as markets are waiting for U.S. Non-farm payrolls report. USD/CHF is undermined by weaker USD sentiment; spillover from EUR strength on CHF. But USD/CHF losses tempered by positions adjustment before weekend. Daily chart is negative-biased as MACD and stochastic are bearish; five-day moving average is below 15-day MA and falling.
