Swiss Franc Long IdeaA potential Long opportunity in Swiss Franc. The "Swissie" has tended to make a seasonal bottom in May and is currently bouncing of support (demand) on the weekly chart.
The 4H chart then appears to show a potential accumulation schematic. The breakout above the range aligns with our bullish, seasonal bias as mentioned above. We are monitoring to initiate a long position if price pulls back into the range below 1.106. This would be a test of the schematic. If price trades below the Spring at 1.090, the idea is invalidated.

Swiss Franc Long 4/19/24Last night, the Swiss Franc surged by over 100 basis points in response to an Israeli airstrike on Iran, causing ripples across the market. Despite the widespread apprehension, the Franc stood firm as a trusted safe-haven asset. Now, as risk appetite returns, we witness the market bouncing back. Over the past 24 hours, the Swiss Franc has demonstrated a consistent uptrend during both risk-averse and risk-on conditions. Moreover, it presently holds the distinction of being the most heavily crowded short trade globally. Should prices persist in their ascent, a significant number of short positions may be compelled to unwind, amplifying the Franc's ascent further.
CHF - Futures - Possible tradeCHF - Futures, there is interesting levels of positioning by the commercials are taking place, it has not yet been confirmed from my end, but there is quite bit of long positions are being taken up by larger traders. Will keep an eye out for turning points in the near future in the next few weeks.
Swiss Franc FuturesTo confirm the USDCHF trade, a look at the Swiss franc future also shows that the franc is likely to face a few weaker years ahead.
Data-Driven Based Support Level for FuturesDuring the strengthening of the franc, option traders actively gained 'naked puts' levels.
To create a spread strategy, traders can add a long position in the underlying asset, resulting in a breakeven call or a spread when selling an out-of-the-money call in the same series. This allows the trader to enter the market with no risk or even a small profit immediately.
Based on this advantage, we expect a surge in buying activity at the current level or slightly lower.
Swissie Future Full AnalysisThe video includes a full analysis of Swiss Franc Futures.
The price is continuing its BULLISH structure BUT approaching the probable reaction zone.
Rather than a Trading Signal the video is an observation of the opportunity to trade.
STRONG SUPPORTThere is an active position set at strike 1.145 for the second day in a row. The portfolio consists of naked puts, and the volume for the current contract is already significant. The synthetic formula enables the owner to take a long position with zero risk when the price reaches the specified strike.
!!!!!We consider this level a strong support level when reached. !!!!!!!
Currently, there are no grounds for opening short positions. Keep in mind, the portfolio's appearance at the strike does not guarantee that the price will move in its direction.
Major multi-year breakout in progress in Swiss FrancThe Swiss Franc is in the process of completing a massive multi-year scalloping bottom against the USD that should send CHF into new ATHs
CHF Futures Trade PlanWe are observing a rise in activity and open interest at the 1.125 Put strike. A surge of purchases is expected if the price hits the level marked on the chart (put breakeven point). The appealing graphical illustration supports this scenario, while the 11-day period before the option contract's expiration goes against it.
Swiss Frank Future Trade Plan based on CME option trades1.1227 price is the most interesting from a trading perspective because it falls perfectly into the sellers' range.

CHF Long idea based on HTF dollar weaknessThis is a quick overview of my thought process for a 6S long today
Celebrating 50 Years of Financial FuturesThis is a Thanksgiving Special Report.
Swiss Franc ( CME:6S1! ), Canadian Dollar ( CME:6C1! ), Japanese Yen ( CME:6J1! ), British Pound ( CME:6B1! ), Mexican Peso ( CME:6M1! )
In May 1972, International Monetary Market (IMM), a division of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME), launched futures contracts on seven currency pairs. This was the world’s first financial futures instrument, a futures contract based on something other than physical commodities.
What has made a Midwestern Exchange, known mainly for its Pork Bellies contract, a frontrunner in financial innovation?
Bretton Woods System and its Collapse
At the end of World War II, the United States and its allies created the Bretton Woods System. Essentially, it was a global monetary system governed by fixed currency exchange rates. The US dollar was backed by gold, at a fixed rate of $35 per troy ounce. Other currencies were pegged to the U.S. dollar. In 1955, one dollar was exchanged for 0.3572 British Pound, 4.2 Deutsch Mark, 3.3 France Franc, 0.986 Canadian Dollar, 360 Japanese Yen, 625 Italy Lire, etc.
Each country was responsible for maintaining its exchange rate within 1% of the adopted par value by buying or selling foreign reserves when necessary. The U.S. was responsible for maintaining the gold parity. Its big commitment was allowing anyone with $35 to exchange for an ounce of gold at the US Treasury window.
As global inflation rose sharply in the 1970s, many countries could not maintain the official peg. They responded by redeeming dollars for gold at the US Treasury window.
With US gold reserve depleting rapidly and a gold run looming, in August 1971, President Richard Nixon announced the "temporary" suspension of the dollar's convertibility into gold. This marked the breakdown of the Bretton Woods. Central banks around the world were no longer obligated to peg their exchange rates to the US dollar.
Leo Melamed and Milton Friedman
With fixed rates, there was no exchange rate risk in international trade. However, flowing rate exposes importers and exporters to significant uncertainty to the amount of dollar or foreign currency they will receive or are obliged to pay for.
Since its founding in 1898, CME has been the place where producers, processors, merchants, and commercial users come together to hedge price risks for a wide range of commodities. Leo Melamed, then Chairman of the CME, was convinced that the futures market is the solution to tackle the rise in exchange rate volatility.
Leo set up an International Monetary Market division within the CME and prepared for new futures contracts derived from foreign exchange rates. Initially, this breakthrough idea found no friends on Wall Street. According to Leo, one investment bank president tossed it out saying he didn’t want the Chicago “Pork Belly Shooters” to contaminate the FX market.
Leo met with Milton Friedman, a well-respected economics professor at the University of Chicago. Milton fully supported the ingenious design and published a feasibility study, “The Need for Futures Markets in Currencies” in 1971.
Milton Friedman (1912-2006) won the Nobel Prize in Economic Science “for his research on consumption analysis, monetary history and theory and the complexity of stabilization policy” (the Nobel Committee).
This changed everything. When Leo went to Washington to lobby the idea of listing foreign exchange futures, Treasury Secretary George Shultz said, “If it’s good enough for Milton, it is good enough for me.”
George Shultz (1920-2021) served as Secretary of State in the Regan Administration and as Treasury and Labor Secretary under Richard Nixon. He was also the Dean of Graduate School at the University of Chicago, and a good friend with Milton Friedman.
If you are interested in the story of FX futures, you may find it online and at Leo’s 1996 memoirs, “Escape to the Futures”.
Foreign Exchange Futures
On May 16, 1972, IMM simultaneously launched seven futures contracts based on the US dollar exchange rates to British Pound ( CME:6B1! ), Japanese Yen ( CME:6J1! ), Canadian Dollar ( CME:6C1! ), Swiss Franc ( CME:6S1! ), Mexican Peso ( CME:6M1! ), Deutsch Mark and Italy Lira.
Five of those original FX contracts are still actively trading at the CME. Deutsch Mark and the Lira have been delisted since Germany and Italy joined the Euro currency. The new contract, Euro/USD FX ( CME:6E1! ), becomes the most active CME FX future contract.
FX contracts saw exponential growth in trading volume in the next fifty years. In the first 9 months of 2022, average daily volume for all FX futures and options reached 983,000 lots, according to the CME Group. On November 15th, Euro FX alone traded 359,000 lots and had an open interest of 683,293 contracts.
My writings on TradingView include a number of trade ideas on FX futures contracts. Please take a look if you haven't yet.
FX Futures were the start of a “Financial Revolution” in the futures industry. The next few years saw new breeds of futures contracts, including interest rate futures between 1975 and1977 and equity index futures in 1982.
During the holiday season, I would start a series on the leaders and innovators at CME, CBOT and KCBT. They brought GNMA Futures, T-Bill and T-Bond Futures, Eurodollar Futures, Value-Line Index Futures and S&P 500 Futures to life and revolutionize the financial derivatives world as we know it today.
Happy Trading.

Swiss franc Futures (6S1!), H4 Potential for Bullish RiseType : Bullish Rise
Resistance : 1.04785
Pivot: 1.04350
Support :1.03890
Preferred Case: On the H4, with RSI is showing an ascending trend, and the price is consolidating now, we would hold a short term bullish bias that price may rise from the pivot at 1.04350 where the swing highs are to the 1st resistance at 1.04785 where the overlap resistance is.
Alternative scenario: Alternatively, price could drop to 1st support at 1.03890 where the 38.2% fibonacci retracement is.
Fundamentals: US CPI was out yesterday, which caused a big jump of the USD, the price may pullback after that.
