USD/CHF overview

Overview
Costs & Margins

  • USD/CHF is the ticker for the exchange rate between the US dollar and Swiss franc, referred to as trading the ‘Swissie’. It tells traders how many francs are needed to buy a US dollar.

    The Swiss franc is considered a safe haven, due to the neutrality of Switzerland on global issues and its reputation as a key economic hub in Europe, especially for customers looking for secure locations to store cash. As such, CHF tends to hold value or rise in periods of economic uncertainty.

    USD/CHF tends to have a negative correlation with EUR/USD and GBP/USD due to the positive correlation between the euro, pound and Swiss franc.
