The post USD/CHF Price Forecast: US Dollar clings above 0.7830 with bearish pressure growing appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The US Dollar (USD) is trading flat against the Swiss Franc (CHF) on Friday, attempting to hold above 0.7830 after rejection at the 0.7900 area on Thursday.

The British Pound (GBP) is practically flat against the Japanese Yen (JPY) on Friday, trading a few pips below 214.00 at the time of writing, after bouncing from weekly lows near 213.35 on Thursday.
