FxWirePro: GBP/CHF rangebound below 5-DMA, good to stay short below 1.2985

• GBP/CHF is trading in a narrow range. Price action seems capped below 5-DMA.
   
• Minor recovery attempts from new 4-month lows at 1.2987 hit last week do little to change the bearish trend.
   
• Series of poor data continue to dent prospects for the UK, casting doubt on future rate hikes to come.
   
• The pair finds strong trendline support at 1.2985. Break below will see further weakness.
   
• Price has dipped below 50% Fib and breach at 1.2985 targets 61.8% Fib at 1.2845.
   
• On the flipside, 5-DMA is immediate resistance at 1.3044. Break above could see minor upside.

Support levels - 1.2985 (trendline), 1.29, 1.2845 (61.8% Fib)

Resistance levels - 1.3044 (5-DMA), 1.3115 (21-EMA), 1.3196 (55-EMA)

Recommendation: Stay short on break below 1.2985, target 1.2920/ 1.29/ 1.2865
