EUR/CHF: the rate of euro of the Swiss franc. It’s known for stable market behavior during the periods without economic shocks, high-profile scandals and news.
The pair is rather well-amenable to forecasting, but despite this, sometimes the trend direction may experience sharp swings. During the day, the pair mostly fluctuates 50–80 pips with rare exceptions.
This pair’s low volatility can be explained by close connection between the economies of Switzerland and the EU and their being dependent on the same factors.
